I have an Inspire 4g. Been a great phone, done all kinds of stuff to it. Contract with ATT is finally up! Been lookin at the Razr Maxx. Any thoughts, opinions, etc? Thanks!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] JoeLithium:
Just got mine. Love it to death. Developer community isn't quite as big as HTC devices it seems. A bit of a learning curve going over to a Motorola device. The battery life is pretty ridiculous. As this and the razr become more popular i have high hopes for the developer community.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] andy442:
Ya more development is always good. What good is a phone if you can't hack into it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] open1your1eyes0:
Not sure if this is the proper section for this but thought I would post this here as I'm sure it would highly assist people in development and other tasks. This is the button combinations you need to enter each mode.

ODIN/Download Mode

Make sure your device is completely off

Key Combos: Volume Down + Home

While holding both of them simultaneously press the Power button until you see a disclaimer on the screen

Then let go of all the buttons and press Volume Up to accept the disclaimer

Once the green robot is visible on the screen this indicates that handset is in now ODIN/Download mode

Recovery Mode

Make sure your device is completely off

Key Combos: Volume Up + Home

While holding both of them simultaneously press the Power button

As soon as the phone vibrates, let go of the Power button but

keep holding Volume Up + Home

When you see the "Samsung Galaxy S III" logo (not just the word "Samsung"), right after that, the next screen you should see is your recovery

Don't let go of Volume Up + Home until you see your recovery
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] open1your1eyes0:
Updated OP to correct that Samsung devices do not have a "Fastboot" mode. ODIN mode replaces this and the ODIN software is basically a set of fastboot commands which is the only way to communicate to the device on a low level. Just a little FYI for everyone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] satadru:
Heimdall should also work ,and it's cross-platform, unlike Odin. But somebody with a phone should test it to make sure it does.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zoandroid:
Thanks for this handy information.

Since I am not at all familiar with Odin and how it works, could you ad a description of the steps to take in order to use Odin to flash an image file to the Galaxy S III? I watched a video on rooting, but the author never really showed much of the Odin screen on his PC and didn't say anything at all about how to use it. So far I keep reading to "use the PDA button", and I have the files downloaded and ready to go, but I don't want to make any mistakes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kthung:
Check out the video linked in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1759980&highlight=heimdall

Happy rooting :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zoandroid:
Thanks. I guess it's really pretty simple after all. :)

I've seen some posts where folks had Odin still chewing on the process after 45 minutes. What do you recommend one do in that instance?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] open1your1eyes0:
In 99% of cases such as that it is likely the fault of a bad USB cable or the computer itself. First try another cable, if still the same try to get access to something like a laptop and try there, usually USB ports work fine on laptops.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] s197:
You would think so but I haven't seen anyone have any luck with Heimdall on Verizon. If someone out there has gotten it to work, would appreciate some sort of guide.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zoandroid:
Thanks. Luckily, I did not have this issue, and your thread here allowed me to root easily on the first try (I did use the OEM USB cable, having read that sometimes prevented problems for others). So thanks a lot for this thread. I am one of a presumed many who came here as this thread was spawned from a divergence on a previous root thread. Glad I did.

I did have an issue with Rom Manager while trying to flash CWM Recovery. It hung on the first attempt and I had to reboot the phone, but then it worked the second time. The only remaining anomaly I have here is that the nandroid I made is dated 1970. I'd like to know if others are having the same issue, and await some announcement for a fix. Does CWM Recovery actually have a support site? If so I'll post there about it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] open1your1eyes0:
Happy to help. :)

And the date bug is a known problem with both CWM and TWRP recovery so far so don't worry too much for now and it won't affect it's use, just an annoyance. No ETA on a fix just yet but check in ROM Manager for an updated version possibly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zoandroid:
What I would actually like to see is CWM offering to let us name the nandroid when creating it, as well as where to put it. From what I have read this date issue is long standing, yet I have never encountered it before using rooted Android devices for the past 2 years until just now. I wonder if it is just this phone model causing the issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] solido888:
Does the battery need to be pulled for Odin to be accessed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rigman:
How about updating the OP to mention that you must be powered off before pressing the key combinations to enter ODIN mode. Would have saved me a lot of time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
Section 6 of my guide stickied at the top if page:

Step 3: Power device off, then hold the volume down/home/power keys until you see a yellow triangle, then press the volume up key to access "download mode"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] toy028:
delete
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] open1your1eyes0:
Added more details to OP to avoid confusion
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zoandroid:
Sadly, the date issue in CWM Touch Recovery has still not been corrected. I rename them after I make one ( but make sure not to put any spaces in the file name or it won't pass the MD5 check when using it later).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] open1your1eyes0:
Appreciate the bump but please stay on topic of OP. If not related, please post in corresponding appropriate thread.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnsgone:
The paid version of ROM Manager allows just that, to name and choose the storage location of your Nandroid backups.

I was curious as to why backups I'd named were failing seemingly at random. Thanks for the heads up. I wonder if this applies to renaming a backup and is therefore correctable by doing so with no spaces in the new name?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zoandroid:
I was replying to a statement made in post #10 by the OP in his own thread. My apologies if it was deemed inappropriate.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] alt230:
then what? burn incense? sorry but this appears to be incomplete. If I were an expert (and maybe that's what xda should be limited to) I wouldn 't need a guide.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlikes08:
Well unfortunately everyone that owns an s3 is not an expert, so people need stepping stones to get started.

This guide IS complete because it states how to enter recover and download mode.

Idk what you came here looking for but you're in the wrong topic it seems.

At this point, my phone is just one big tweak.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rgdave:
I'm having trouble getting into download mode on a Verizon S3. I power off, and then hold down VolDown - Home - Power simultaneously. The disclaimer screen shows up, but then before I can hit "Volume Up" to continue, it continues the boot process into the S3, stock 4.1.2. (I'm not rooted yet, I'm trying to root. And I do have USB debugging checked.) I've tried a lot of different combinations of the VolDown - Home - Power, i.e. releasing the power button once the Download screen appears, but holding down Home and VolDown, etc. In the couple of videos I've watched, the S3 doesn't seem that 'touchy' about going into download mode. They hold the 3 buttons, the download screen appears (and holds), they take their fingers off the buttons and then press VolUp to continue.

Clearly I'm doing something wrong. I do NOT have the USB cable connected to my computer when I'm doing this. Do I need to? I have downloaded the Samsung drivers, and if the phone is on and connected by USB, I can see the files on the phone in my desktop file explorer. As I've never rooted before, I've never connected to the phone and used ODIN. Is there something quirky about that?

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] danperde:
It took me a while to figure it out. So hold Volume down + Home + Power, and when you feel the vibration and the disclaimer starts appearing, let go all the buttons. Then press Volume up to enter download mode. Don't press Power at the same time, like the OP says, the phone will just restart. And your phone should not be connected on USB.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jeweleon:
Thanks a lot!

You saved me there...It was power + vol down but I updated my phone and was stuck in bootloop so I wanted to access TWRP but was doing the old combo :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ChristianLa:
Thank you!

Thank you so much for this guide! :) I needed to enter the download mode and I had no idea it was as easy as holding down instead of up!

I know there's a "Force Remove App" option, but is it safe? I haven't used it before and I read some horror stories about it on some forums.

Also, I don't know if this is any useful but these are some files associated with this apk:

Hello Everyone! These are the first Splash Screens that i created for the Evo 4g! and now i want to share them with you all.

Here are the instructions

1. Download a zip of your choosing (EX Splash Screen Htc Evo 4gBlack.zip)

2. Extract the folder that's inside the zip you just downloaded. ^^^^^

3. Inside the folder you just extracted there is another zip and a splash.bmb

(splash.bmb is just a thumbnail to show which image will be flashed and the second zip is the zip you will actually be flashing)

4. Rename the zip that is inside the folder you just extracted to PC36IMG.zip

(EX HTCEvoBlack-PC36IMG.zip rename to PC36IMG.zip )

5. Place on root of SD card

6. Reboot into bootloader and wait for your phone find PC36IMG.zip

7. hit vol up when asked if you want to apply update

8. Reboot and enjoy!!

Again these are my very first splash screens ever, so dont hesitate to tell me that they suck :victory: . I plan to make more if you guys like em

Remember my fellow XDA amigos.

Make sure you Have S-off and make sure the zips only have one .zip extension

(EX HPC36IMG.zip.zip will not work. rename to PC36IMG.zip)

Here are the Splash Screen Shots

Sorry to say but it doesn't work as intended. Nothing appears in dropdown curtain and apps chosen are not saved.maybe add a "save" button in settings.

It's a nice feature,especially when curtain is available when lockscreen is on.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] rickythefox:
Thanks for the logcat! Some questions:

* Try restarting the phone. Is ChatON there now?

* When you run this app, are any of the apps in the list that appears checked?

* Can you please try running the app with the headphones unplugged and see if you get different results?

* If possible can you do:

adb shell ls -l /data/data/com.sec.android.contextaware/databases/

and post me the results?

Cheers!

Yep, your app has marked all the apps that are shown by the status menu (FM Radio, Music Player, Video Player, Voice Recorder & YouTube)
