Sounds like you missed data which is where your user apps reside. Doing a factory reset through recovery will take care of cache and data, and that will leave dalvik as one to do by itself.

---------- Post added at 01:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 AM ----------

You need to wipe data to get rid of your user apps.

Yep, I had the same problem with the new Wifi Tether also. I uninstalled it and installed this one by TreveE. Works great now. DL the file and just run it. It will install itself. Then you can run it from Settings/Wifi Tether.

I wipe all the way down to system.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bcougarj:
Doesn't matter. Fact is, you've either got residual data or you've flashed something that installed a new boot animation. This is why when I "clean flash" roms I always always always wipe system.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] akarol:
I literally wiped everything on TWRP. Cache, Dalvik, System, Internal Memory (my zip files are on the SD), and Formatted Data. Then I installed 2.0.

However, you guys reminded me that I flashed the rotating lockscreen zip, and the 4.2 camera, 4.2 keyboard, and 4.2 apps zips. Could those have been it?

If we wanted to go back to ads how would we do this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
Delete the host file from the etc folder
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chrischoi:
I still have ads. Blah.

Should just be flashing JB Google apps. I'm pretty sure that wouldn't tamper with data/local.

Maybe the Gapps file you have was made for a different custom rom. I'd say unzip it and pick what you want. Install those separately.

Try installing just 2.0.0 first. Let it run, then try one thing at a time.

Do the wipe and start there. Add the apps after you know it works. No point in installing and then throwing everything together right away. This way you can isolate the issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hayzooos:
Rock on, glad you got it all situated out.

Did you flash a separate kernel? Some kernels have a boot splash or their own animation. If you were flashing a bunch of 4.2 zips, that could certainly cause problems as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Brandon:
just tried to install this rom using the rom manager app. i've successfully installed dozens of roms, so i'd like to think i half ass know what i'm doing.

well now the phone won't start or boot into recovery mode or download mode. i get the "samsung" animation flash when i hit the power button, then the screen goes blank and phone is unresponsive.

any ideas?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
Did you make it to the aroma installer? Try flashing with twrp....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Circaflex:
i think rom manager uses cwm which isnt compatible with this rom, you must use TWRP to flash it as it uses the AROMA installer. Hold vol down and power and phone should turn off. HOld power, home and volume down and it should get you into DOWNLOAD

EDIT MY MISTAKE vol down gets you into download, vol up power and home gets you into recovery sorry about that
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] George M:
Upgraded to v2. Looks good, except I cannot get Play Store to open. It will start and then shut down immediately

I cleared all data

I uninstalled and the installed version 3.9.17 that someone posted here, didn't help.

Searched all through this forum and most complaints are getting an error when trying to dl something, not about getting it to open.

Any ideas?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Brandon:
it won't let me get into recovery mode.

on the first page of this thread it states that cwm works.

never made it to aroma.

when i hold power, vol down, home i am able to get into that recovery. i guess i have to use ODIN to restore it from there?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Circaflex:
you fix permissions in recovery?

---------- Post added at 09:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:17 PM ----------

i would advise against CWM for this rom, AROMA doesnt play nice/work at all.

Download some other rom, say cm10 or even freezas TW rom

Boot to recovery

mount sd so you can transfer your rom over to sd card

wipe system

flash new rom

install goomanager

use goomanager to install TWRP

flash freegs3 with TWRP and youll get the aroma installer

??

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dubs.law:
Just FYI... I dirty flashed 2.0 with no problems. Cleared dalvik, cache, fixed permissions. Flashed 2.0, reboot. No problems.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DatDude123:
I am using CWM with no issues. Do Vol Up + Power + Home. If that doesn't work then you are correct about Odin.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
use volume up, home button and power button, hold all three until you see the little blue type in upper left hand corner, that will bring you to recovery mode...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Brandon:
only thing i can get into is the "vol down, home, power" thing.

i get the android man that has the text "Downloading. Do not turn off target!!" just below it. i don't think i can flash a custom rom from this screen. none of the buttons do anything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Circaflex:
what happens when you try vol up power and home?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hayzooos:
Yeah, that's download mode, where you would use Odin to put a stock image back on and go from there.Usually after a new flash it takes a while for it to boot up, but since you never made it to the aroma installer, something else must've happened.

I thought there were a few people saying some of the links that were out right after the ROM dropped had bad md5s on them. Possible it was a bad download and totally borked everything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Brandon:
you wouldn't by chance happen to know where to get a stock rom to put back on through odin would you?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MontyPyFly:
you might have to supply some more information..... well, a lot more information.

did you successfully flash this rom, did it work before, what did you last do when it quit working, what the heck to you mean by "pink thing"... etc.

You can always try taking out the battery for 5 minutes or so and trying to boot again.

If not boot into recovery mode (Vol up, power, home. lots of info on that via searching) and flash the rom again.

Other than that..... gonna need more info on your situation. Did it get dropped?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cbass15:

Hmm Having a weird issue with v 2.0 of this ROM.

No issues installing it and 'most' of my phones functionality seems to work, except I cannot send texts, and one menu isn't working.

I can receive them just fine.. but going out I get a sprint error 97. I know from experience this often is a connection issue that you can fix by "Updating Profile" from the settings menu.

But guess which menu isn't functioning :P

Neither the Update PRL nor Update Profile options appear to do anything. No Popup, no indication that it's updating or anything. The menu options are there, and they glow when pressed, but nothing happens.

Is there another way to 'update profile' on a GS3? And is this a known issue with the menu on the ROM (Couldn't find any reference via searching but most people wouldn't use that menu option so no surprise there).

I really don't want to wipe the phone yet again... (I guess texting should have been one of the FIRST things i tested before putting stuff back on hehe)

Any ideas?

I've already wiped cache/dalvik, and tried the fix permissions thing.

Nope didn't help... well not exactly.

I realized my texting issue was not the ROM itself, but my Airrave device.. had to reboot it and now I can text just fine.

However none of the 4 options under the "System Update" menu do anything on this ROM version. I never used version 1.. so not sure if it's a JB thing, a ROM thing, or something that went wrong during my flashing.

Does anyone elses 'Update PRL/Profile" option actually work? (Not sure if I need them just yet anyway).

Also noticed that we are back to the stupid 5 contact joining limit in contacts.... off to hack some files again :)
