Without changing any of my settings (account syncs, etc...), haven't noticed change in battery usage statistics. I tested this explicitly before going to bed last night.

The user interface does feel snappier than before, even though I was already happy with ICS on the E210KKKALI1 ROM.

Note that I did not perform a factory reset and/or cache clear before or after flashing... I didn't want to setup the device all over again (for now).
[Galaxy S III General] Truballa11:
I actually did a wipe after installing and it really wasn't a change. But I think that's plenty fast. On quadrant I'm averaging 5200. It's not great but it's better than it was. Still snappy. Hoping for an overclocking kernel I can trust.

Perhaps we need to wait just a little longer, because they want to out 4.1.2 and require a bit more time to test it thoroughly? ... I don't know.

Wouldn't surprise me though if they actually did release 4.1.2 sometime next week :)

Sorry for any inconvenience downloading. Ran into a mediafire limitation on free accounts. I think many of you have not been able to download the first (header) zip file of the batch due to this limitation (the one file ending with .zip).

SHV 210L Enquiries

Good day to all the experts, I happen to get my hand on a Korean SHV 210L. I'm residing in Singapore.

Need advise on the following

1) Hope to upgrade to Jelly Bean

2) Hope to root the phone to maximize the speed of the phone.

Try reading the whole thread but seems there are a lot of stuffs I really dun understand. Hope someone could enlighten me n point me to the right directions.
[Galaxy S III General] PhuocTri:
My E210L ROM upgrade to v5.2 - LIC today.

Next week with LJ2 :) Welcome :)
[Galaxy S III General] Truballa11:
I'm having trouble getting back in the cw recovery. It's making me go into the original although it is rooted. Anyone have a fix. I'm on the leak JB rom on 210k
[Galaxy S III General] p33k:
Uncheck auto reboot in odin. When it's done flashing boot into recovery. Stock rom has fail safe to restore the recovery. So after flashing cwm don't let it reboot to the stock rom.
[Galaxy S III General] apatot:
Anyone with e210s get an upgrade yet?

I'm here in Seoul btw :(
[Galaxy S III General] Truballa11:
Like I said I'm on the leaked rooted rom. So it already has CWM on it. But whenever I salute it goes into stock recovery. It's was already flashed into rooted Jellybean
[Galaxy S III General] davidcsv:
If by leaked test rom you are referring to the E210KKKJLI3_rooted odin flashable image which was published very recently in this thread (by me) and downloadable thru mediafire/hotfile, then please note that that image contains the stock recovery. If you need cwm recovery on your phone then flash it separately.

Btw, I think this e210k rom (as far as I can recall from what I've seen in the rom) does not restore the recovery partition during boot, but I might be mistaken...?
[Galaxy S III General] Letraq:
English ROM

Hi, I am completely new to all this as I have literally just bought my first smartphone and am discovering everything for the first time! I'd really appreciate all your help as all the info is all quite intimidating.

I just bought a Korean Samsung Galaxy SIII, Korean version model "shv e210s", and it comes with a TON of bloatware, and although the phone is supposedly unlocked as I can use a SIM from another network, I cannot update to JB with this SIM so I need to root my phone to deal with both these things.

The problem is I can't read Korean so I want to know if there are any good ROMS out there which are in English, and which are stable and so forth... I have searched for hours but my impression is there aren't many non-Koreans interesting in developing an English ROM for the "shv e210s"... is this sadly the case?

Your help is REALLY appreciated! Thanks!!
[Galaxy S III General] kms108:
JB has not been released yet for the 210, also you can go into settings and change the language.
[Galaxy S III General] Letraq:
Thanks for your reply. I've already set the phone to english, not that much of a noob haha but Im looking for a stable

custom rom which is in english, thanks
[Galaxy S III General] kms108:
Sorry can't help you with that, i stick to stock rom, may be someone else can help you with that
[Galaxy S III General] p33k:
Then just flash the newest CWM 6.0.1.2 and then you won't have stock recovery. I guess whoever made the rooted rom didn't include a custom recovery.

falshing with another factory rom...

Hi guys, I have a SHV-E210S version, I'v a question regarding flashing to another stock rom. I reside in Nepal, and want to use the Nepals stock rom on it, is that possible?
[Galaxy S III General] davidcsv:
Only Korean stock roms on Korean models. If you want something else, then you will have to look for a suitable custom rom.
[Galaxy S III General] M@31:
Where did you buy the phone?

If you can find someone that has the Nepalese stock ROM posted on a site, then you can easily get that. When you use Kies to update, you should get the stock ROM that is released where you live.

I don't think there are "stock" roms for other countries, those would be custom ROMs.

You are going to have to find a custom ROM I think.......I have no idea if there would be any difference between a Nepalese stock or other stock rom....
[Galaxy S III General] Aedan762:
I can sympathize. I reside in Korea as a GET and got the E201S as well... but since all the Korean bloatware is only in Korean with no option for English and Google maps is only in very broken English and Google translate only works about 1/8th of the time... it was almost a waste to get an Android phone here. Almost regret it even. As wonderful as this phone is, the convenience of it is lost on someone who doesn't speak Korean or read Hangul at all.
[Galaxy S III General] cynosure4sure:
Hi!!! Aedan..... I am also a Foreigner living in Korea and I own a SHV-210K...the bloatware is in Korean no getting around it but you can "disable" by going into managing applications if it is bothering you.....

On the other hand even if you don't use bloatware apps you can use other apps for navigation and other purposes in Korea and it is not that difficult. Google maps have very less places tagged in English......so trick is to search two times....e.g if you want to find "Mr.pizza" (a popular pizza chain in Korea) search once in English..the google maps will shows results in Korean and English....copy paste the Korean words for "Mr.Pizza" and search again..........also try using naver and daum maps in Korea they have amazing level of detail...if you have some Korea specific problems please PM me as this forum is mostly concerned with "development" for the phone....

SHV-210 S/K/L is an amazing phone whether inside or outside Korea despite the lack of major development as other phones

Cheers :laugh:
[Galaxy S III General] robinkimfoo:
if it's just bloatware why does it matter if it's in Korean or not? do you actually plan on using any of the bloatware? google maps should work in English just fine, I have the 210s and I prefer English as well. I see no loss of functionality with regards to language. bloatware can be removed using titanium backup if it bothers you. perhaps you can elaborate your exact problems and we can help you get around the limitations of the language.

Stuck

New to all this but...

Trying to update to Jellybean. Living in the Philippines but the s3 I bought is the E210S.

1. Kies - Kies says that my device does not support software upgrading. Firmware LG3.

2. OTA - says that my software is up to date, but Jellybean has been released nationwide here today...

3. Used root checker and my device is rooted. I have not rooted it myself. It came like this.

Am trying to understand how to flash with Odin, but I can't find JB firmware for my model and I'm scared about bricking my phone by flashing a different model's firmware. Any advice?
[Galaxy S III General] davidcsv:
1. You are still on a relatively old rom version... latest version that I know of is E210SKSALJ1.

I believe OTA would take you thru E210SKSALH7, E210SKSALIA up to LJ1, one update at a time.

2. I think that if Jelly Bean was out for this model, then it would've been really big news here... any one else know more about this?

3. Don't worry about root.. hop over to www.sammobile.com and download the LJ1 rom, flash with Odin, enjoy 4.0.4 till Jelly Bean becomes available (which should be very soon, I hope).

If you want to be sure about which model you have, check the label in the battery compartment.
[Galaxy S III General] p33k:
Jellybean hasn't been released for your phone yet. Sorry.
[Galaxy S III General] kms108:
A branded rom will take more time for released.
[Galaxy S III General] KillerCat1810:
Jellybean has been released to i9300, not E210S/K/L ^.^
[Galaxy S III General] kms108:
JB has only been released in some countries, not all, but they are starting to roll out.

once it's released you will know.
[Galaxy S III General] davidcsv:
Yep.... will be difficult not to notice all the fireworks in this thread! :D
[Galaxy S III General] sundown123:
Thanks for the explanation, after very simply updating iOS on my previous iPhones this manufacturer/model/country/carrier issue in updating my android OS was confusing me. Only got my S3 a couple of weeks ago. Gotta say I'm loving it though. Best phone I've owned by far.

You mention that the OTA should take me step-by-step through newer ROMs but it tells me I'm up to date (my firmware is currently 4.04). So if I flash with the newest ROM from sammobile I can just go straight to LJ1? I should't go flash the older ROMs step-by-step as OTA presumably would have done?

I'm guessing that OTA and Kies are not working for me either because my phone is rooted or because its a Korean phone in the Philippines. Not sure which it is or even if it's one of those two reasons... What do you think?

#1234# wasn't working for me either but another user advised me to input *#1234# which works...

[Galaxy S III General] skim234:
ok, i flashed the jellybean rom for my shv-e120k. it's ok, but i think the kernel isn't capable of undervolting. anyone know of good undervolting roms that are compatible with the rooted jellybean rom found on this site? if not, i may go back to 4.04 rom and use the undervolt kernel it came with.
[Galaxy S III General] davidcsv:
You are definitely on an older ROM. Like I said earlier, download the latest one thru sammobile.com, initiate download mode on your phone and flash with Odin on a pc. The phone being rooted at the moment doesn't matter. Don't go the OTA route and no need to flash the ROMs old to newest consecutively, use Odin and grab the latest ROM in one swoop.

One drawback is that the ROM's provided by sammobile are all untouched stock and if you require rooting, you'll have to root manually afterwards. There are however pre-rooted stock ROM's available as well, so you could consider downloading one of those.
[Galaxy S III General] sundown123:
Ok, its 3am so I'm going to try to do it tomorrow.

Going to try to backup my root to OTA root keeper to keep my rooting afterwards but I doubt this will work as I don't know the mechanics of the rooting process. My phone was sold to me rooted...

Newest patch

Hey guys a few days a go I received an update over the air for my E210L. It was around 10mbs and when I restarted the phone it informed I was now able to use a high quality service called zubi or zambi or something like that, I didn't pay attention and I cant find information about the patch online. Can some one tell me what was the name of the new service? I cant find it in my options and its not a new app.

Question regarding SHV-E210S

Hi There,

I have a question regarding the Korean version of the Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE. My friend got the SKT version of the S3 and is moving out of Korea. She wants to keep using her phone but is worried that it would be difficult for her to get updates etc when she gets a new SIM card from a new carrier. Is there any way to root the phone so that it would be accessible to the new phone carrier and also receive updates when possible? Please let me know. Thanks!
[Galaxy S III General] hranjit:
You can use it anywhere without rooting it, it's an already unlocked so I think will be fine. About updating you can only do from kies, can't do OTA updates. I've skt shv-e201s and am using it in Nepal without any problem and my bro has the KT version.
[Galaxy S III General] robinkimfoo:
should work fine, rooting is not necessary, but she won't be able to use the LTE feature outside of korea. frequency is specific to south korea, although i'm pretty sure 3g should work just fine.

[Galaxy S III General] sheriffadam:
No problems with saved games here, flashed first with the unrooted ROM yesterday, then again with the newer rooted ROM this morning (both through Odin) and no data lost.

I'm sure I'd get an extra 1% of performance by backing everything up, clearing the phone, wipe SDcard etc and flashing but meh, maybe next time!

Pocpocpocky: it's smoother! Camera focus has changed styles, Settings has changed layout +with new options, drop down menu has changed too, 'Blocking Mode' has come up (needs a bit of research into! and NFC (but that was slightly updated last time also) I know get SKT on the drop down menu too (quite cool)
[Galaxy S III General] M@31:
If you dont factory reset or format sd card, you should lose your data.

If you are worried about that, you can always back everything up with a quick root (if not already) and use Titanium to back every thing up.
