[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Gadgetz:
Before I go for the gusto here, I'd like to get a little clarity

I am now on stock rom, rooted and installed cwm via mrrobinsons "no trip" method where the counter does not get tripped. When I flashed the Odin part I unchecked "F. Reset Time" by accident but it flashed fine, installed cwm fine, counter was not tripped, all was well. But since then I have tried a few times to either "copy" or "cut" text/url, etc., and every time I've done so the app I was using at the time would crash and the function would not get done. Sometimes the context doesn't even come up to even allow me to attempt to do said function. So my thought is that something got fubar'd in the process and I probably should start from scratch.

I have not done a factory reset yet as this doesn't reinstall anything, right? It just wipes data and returns the phone back to stock form by removing anything I've installed to it, right? I did make a nandroid immediately after installing cwm so i'm good to go on that, will backup my apps though as I'm sure I've installed some since Saturday and it's always better to be safe than sorry. So this is my plan:

After backing up my apps (apk's and data) I am going to do a complete wipe/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik, flash the stock rooted rom in this thread. Then, because I was on stock rom previously and simply have a fresh version of it installed after the flash, I was going to go into cwm "advanced restore" and select "restore data" from my nandroid which will reinstall all my apps and app data as well as system data so it will look exactly as it did prior to this process. Should I test the copy/paste feature first before doing said restore or do you think I'll be fine? If it still doesn't work after doing the advanced restore then I'd have to flash the rom again and then just restore app apk's only and set everything else up manually.

Does this sound about right? Am I overlooking something or am I making it more difficult than needed?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Jirv311:
Definitely test copy/paste before restoring anything. That way you can truly isolate the app or issue.

Also when wiping data via CWM, it wipes all apps you installed after the ROM (from the Market) and all customizations you applied like wallpaper etc, including dalvik-cache. You really should never restore system data just as practice. Plenty of issues can pop up as a result.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Gadgetz:
I went ahead and proceeded with the process as stated above and here is the outcome:

After flashing the rom, went into the browser and attempted to cut/paste, worked without a hitch.

Rebooted into CWM and did and advanced restore/restore data....it put my phone back exactly how I had it, settings, apps and all, but the problem was the same, crashes app upon cut/paste.

Reflashed the rom, reinstalled all my apps, all is well!

Thanks to the OP for providing us with this stock, rooted, deodexed rom, i'm a happy camper again :highfive:

If you want to ignore it you can, you can update it and you will lose root or you can download the following and not worry about it till the next OTA update.

Excellent, De-Odex'd! Now I can play. Thanks! Any chance on de-odexing the OTA LG1 update as well?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Jirv311:
I'll have to look at it more but I believe its a new recovery and modem and removes local device searching, so it may not be worth a new build.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kangi26:
Yeah, good point about the local search, sure would hate to upset the "Apple Cart" :p

But I think there are some app enhancements as well
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drawde40599:
It dose, but it also updates bootloader and few other things that us " crackflashers" can't live without; p, the new search can easy be fixed by seprate download or there's a .apk that's running around to go back, I installed the new radio, and kernal and there is a noticeable speed increase for internet, phone speed not so.much .. but thank u for looking into, ur time is appreciated

Thanks for putting together this ver of a “stock” rom. Just what I was looking for after buy my SG3. Couldn’t keep it stock less than an hour… Rom is working perfect.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Jirv311:
Yeah, I didn't include busybox since it changes the Status to Modified in About Phone and it was freaking people out. :D
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Gadgetz:
It only changes that if it was injected into the rom? Reason I ask is cause I installed BB from the Play store and my system doesn't show modified.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Jirv311:
I'm not real sure. I know when I include it in my build, it shows as modified. If you reboot a couple times you may see it happen on yours as well. Apparently it's not very consistent.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mpazevedo:
Just give it time it will. Maybe on an update. But in the end it does not matter. When you flash back to stock it changes back to normal. Another thing, triangle away is now supported on our phones. Counter bye bye.

Hi,

Maybe my question is rare: when I buy my GT-N7000 the Note have this keyboard layouyt, I don´t know the name:

Later, with the update to 2.3.6 the keyboard layout change adding a top row of numbers and others. I really like the old one because with this distribution the letters are bigger in the screen. I not have eye problem but yes big fingers :)

Anyone know if I can change the setup of the keyboard to look equal like the image posted without install any extra app?

Thanks and regards!

anyone else super OCD about getting any scratches whatsoever on their phone? especially when you order a case and it takes awhile to arrive!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] mrhaley30705:
No.i just left it in the box until case arrived.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] stevesprivateaccount:
Nope, I'm running naked, and don't plan on getting a case. Scratches happen.

As I always say to other Harley Davidson owners that I see with pristine scratch free clean bikes, "while your busy polishing and washing, I'm riding!"

Its just a phone, use it enjoy it, its bound to get scratches, dings, cracks etc.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] jdpdata:
I've been paranoid as sh!t using this phone naked while waiting for my case.

Already dropped it once, luckily it landed on corner and bounced safely, not a scratch yet.

But damn this thing is so sexy, can't take my eyes of it :)

Out of the like 11 years I have had phones I have only dropped them twice. Once my Omnia and once my OG Droid. Neither got anything more than a tiny scratch, both fell on pavement. I'm pretty good about not dropping them. They're my little electronic children! :P

With this phone I do have a case in the mail, and I'll be ordering a screen protector soon, if not just go into Best Buy when I get it and get one there.

This is a case my gf bought from my local mall. She paid $24.99 but there cheaper on ebay. Its kind of like a defender series knock off with no built in screen protector.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aSquard:
I would suggest making a Nandroid backup then try the zip and flash in CWM (clear cache and davlik - reboot will take longer the first time)

OR

Using Root Explorer

Navigate to System/app rename GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk to whatever you want to

Drag/Drop Velvet-theos0o-3.apk in System/app and rename it to GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk

Change permissions to rw-, r--, r-- and reboot (do NOT try and install the APK)

- it should definitely work then

When you restart - go to Manage Apps, find Google Search then clear data and cache (should clear up the network error)

Sorry, super noob here. I have an ish working copy of Google Now; but it appears there's an updated form of the app. I'm on a CM9 nightly (7/03 I think) is this OK to flash the zip on because I initially did the whole rename file, change permissions etc, and I'd much rather have the zip remove the old version / clear cache etc.

Is this fine to flash it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aSquard:
I personally haven't tried the flashing method, so I can only assume that you'd be ok. Although if you did the renaming/drag/drop method, just delete the old one with Root Explorer otherwise, nandroid first in case something goes nutty and flash the zip
