I hope you moderators are happy with this format, cause there's so much info hitting this forum I don't know how anyone keeps up with it all? I never realized how big the GS3 forum was yet alone how much info comes into XDA as a whole you guys have a big job keeping on top of it all, I commend you. I don't however think you all should be subjecting us to this torture! AND NOW NO SEARCH WHATSOEVER, nice! I tried to go back and just look in a couple threads I had posted in, lord only knows how many pages deep they are back! and when I tried to pull up the section with MY posts..."Sorry the search function is not available" it tells me!

You guys need to really re-think this combined confloguration and separate the carriers back out.......PLEASE! :crying:

OK, Just Reflashed from CM9 to Stock GB:

N7000XXLC1-2.3.6-2012 March-N7000CPWLB2--United Kingdom (Carphone Warehouse) UPDATED (old file was corrupt)

This is what I did.

1.Opened Odin

2.Put Note in download mode and connected USB

3.Pressed Volume up

4.Auto-reboot, F. reset time ticked and loaded file in PDA

5.Pressed start

6.Once completed the phone installed the packages, the phone reboots and shows the Samsung Logo, after 1/2 mins it will reboot and will constantly go in a loop (samsung logo then reboot)

Please help

are you able to go to download mode? try to flash another gb rom via pc odin. I use KL3 normally (you can change country code later). read once again how to flash via pc odin. check any loose cable connection. usb cable should be firmly connected to PC as well as the device. good luck
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonpaslim:
Try this, go to recovery and perform data wipe, cache, and dalvik ( if there is one). I suggest this in the assumption

that is safe to this on CM9.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
This is common issue

You have succesfully flash GB ROM so now it is safe to wipe cahce and data. perform it from recovery and it should boot normally.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manloonw:
hey

sorry I am a total noob, how do I do that Dr ketan?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Put device in recovery(vol up + home +power)

Select wipe cache then wipe data

Then reboot

It shud b fine

Note this will erase data.

So I posted in the build thread, but thought maybe someone might have a quick answer that I've missed.

I Unlocked (I used the 1.83 clean SBF since megaupload was down and I couldn't find the 2.3.4 one) then followed the instructions here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1302423

and some youtube videos and some other sites lol, it was VERY stumbly getting it to give root, the unlock went fine, I think I could have even done it on the stock install I had, but I didn't... I used the 1.83 sbf in the pudding thread. (not sure if that was the right thing to do or not. I'm kind of confused on the whole rolling back thing and how it gets bricked with certain roms. I also didn't do a back up of my stock locked install so I have no idea how to get back to stock but I don't really care about that now)

Rom'd this Tablet UI:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1532182

and ran the Gappsv10 linked there. That didn't work, ran it again then it did work for gmail voice talk... but Maps, navigation, g+ all won't install and show as incompatible with my device. Same goes for FB Foursquare, Netflix, and tons of other apps... Not sure if I did something wrong or if this is normal. Oh I also tried running the latest Gapps v12 still no dice.

Any help is appreciated, I just don't have too much time to figure all this crap out... I dip in and out of romming phones for brief periods and everything changes so much and each phone is so different it always takes me forever to figure out what's what.

Since I'm begging for easy pointers which everyone hates, might as well go all in...

I want an ICS rom that has Gentop or Full Ubuntu or whatever for use in the laptop dock... is that doable?

I'll pay someone who's willing to hold my hand through getting my perfect rom sorted out. $30 first offer? It will be a pain though... I ask lots of questions.

I love XDA but I sure do wish people were a little more noob friendly and elaborate in their replies... buzz words and quippy short answers don't do it for me.

I've been doing this for years and once I know my way around a phone I'm more than happy to do so myself, and on all the car forums I'm on I try to give thoughtful complete replies to noobs, remember we were ALL noobs once at EVERYTHING.

I'm a little loopy on pain meds for a kidney stone so forgive me if this is a little ranty.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NonovUrbizniz:
No one?

I'm going to try to reinstall the rom again. I did all the wipes and formats and reset etc before getting it running the first time....

But I rom'd cm9 last night and did the signed gapps install (tried that on the tablet ui too) and maps/navigation and all the prev. not working apps work fine...

There are a few apps that don't work but they were few and far between. CM9 is great, only downside I've seen so far is no video which is kinda big for me, I've got kids so half of my phone use is video's.... but so far I love ICS/CM.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soldier-2Point0:
Ensure you are using the correct gapps version. This one is for cm7.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NonovUrbizniz:
thanks, I think either the rom I had didn't install right or is borked.

I installed clean cm9 nightly and all gapps work fine.

If only the camera and finger print scanner worked.. webtop wouldn't hurt either but overall I'm REALLY impressed with cm9 on an unsupported device.

Runs smooth hardly any glitches decent battery life.

Thanks again

I have tried to use the search but all I get is stuff of on 7 and 9 and I would like to install CM6. Anyone have a link because I just can't find it.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] teddyearp:
If you just need the CM6.x rom files, I have a boat load of them in my collection linked in my sig. You install it just like you would any other CM rom, ROM first, then the proper gapps file for the rom second _before_ booting. The gapps file you need is "gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip" also in my collection.

good luck
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] thebigred67:
Thanks for the response!

One thing though. I haven't done this before. Any link to a step by step.

This is the only one I have found so far:

First time flashing CM 6.1 to your Droid (or coming from another ROM)?

1. Unlock/root your device and install Clockwork Recovery via ROM Manager (Don't see a ROM manager)

2. Do a Nandroid backup! (Not sure how to do this. Do I download an app for that?)

3. Update your radio if necessary (I am guessing this is a Euro term)

4. WIPE (Again no idea where to start)

5. Install the ROM ( I am sure by the time I get here I will be able to do this)

5. Optionally install the Google Addon

A friend suggested these apps:

download rom manager and clockwork recovery and nandroid.

I didn't find clockwork recovery but found another.

I just don't want to brick. I use this for my work phone. I have other options for a phone if all goes wrong but I just want to find as much info as possible before I commit.

SO many files on that page I don't know were to start???
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] teddyearp:
Ahhh, I see, so you haven't even rooted your phone yet? If that's the case then I'm going to have to just refer you to some other threads/guides because you have a lot of reading to do.

I have a quite a few on my site, when in my folder, just go to parent directory a couple of times and then you will see the link for my Motorola A855 info.

Here's some more:

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-labs/74028-root-droid-1-regardless-os-version.html#post766732

http://androidforums.com/droid-all-...oid-without-rsd-lite-up-including-frg83d.html

You can also google "SuperOneClick" and find info about that. PLEASE be careful and read all the info carefully before you proceed. Also, there are a boat load of video guides on Youtube, but most all of them are out-fo-date and will soft-brick your phone.

good luck

I'm willing to bite for the full price of the Samsung MHL adapter just because I know the S3 has some problems without the official one. Anyone know of the best place to buy it? Amazon shows one but it ships from the UK and the one on Samsung's site is not compatible. Is it not out yet?

Anyone else picking it up?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] coogrrr94:
I don't think it is out yet but yes, I might be getting one. It will be a whole lot easier surfing the web on my tv via the phone than using the clunky tv remote control.

i may take a chance on monoprice

http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10833&cs_id=1083314&p_id=8805&seq=1&format=2

I have gotten lots of good things from them including a 75ft HDMI CL2 cable for $30 shipped and a universal GPS mount that works great for any phone for like $5 shipped....and it's never been junk really, always decent quality, very happy with them over the years for any type of audio/video/cable/adapter

only thing is no way to know if it is compatible yet until someone bites, so I may do it one day soon
[Galaxy S III Accessories] MichaelVash7886:
Well my only thing about some of the non Samsung ones is I read they don't output 1080p if that matters to you.

I emailed monoprice support about the one you linked. Will let you guys know what they say.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] chrischoi:
I personally prefer OEM items. They usually sell for around $11.

eBay, Amazon.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] paesan:
I already checked with Monoprice and they said that their adapter is not compatable with the S3. The Monoprice adapter is a 5 pin adapter and Samsung changed the S3 to an 11 pin adapter. There is a 5 pin - 11 pin adapter available. Most of the mhl adapters out are 5 pin and will not work with the S3. That is what I have been told. The Samsung mhl adapter is $40. You could get the Monoprice 5 pin mhl for $11 and a 5 pin - 11 pin adapter for another $10. That would work but I would personally wait for a cheaper 11 pin mhl adapter to come out than hook up multiple adapters.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kswa1987:
constant power needed?

I was really interested in getting one of these but it looks like you will need to have an HDMI cable AND a micro USB connected to a wall socket for the MHL adapter to work... is this true, and if so, is it worth all the cable hassle?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cesjr02:
USB is only for charging. So it will work without.

EDIT: It appears I'm wrong about that. With the Samsung MHL adapter anyway.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] thacounty:
charger cable is a requirement for all mhl adapters I've used.

I saw one in best buy here in toronto area so should have them at Best Buy in the US as well. They're called samsung hdtv adapter for galaxy s 3.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eatkabab:
Yes please let us know what they tell you. I thought they flipped the pins so only the official Samsung adapter would work. If 720P works, I'd be totally fine with that...

I <3 Monoprice forever. They sell things at the price they're supposed to be sold at. Still slightly pricey, but the best one stop shop I've seen.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] MichaelVash7886:
Its a no go with those:

" Regarding our MHL adapter and the upcoming release of the Galaxy S3 in the U.S. We have tested and confirmed that the S3 uses a different pinout in regards to MHL, so our current MHL device will not work for it. We have already put in a suggestion for a device that will fully support the new S3, and we are actively working on cases and other accessories for the S3 as well. "

We will just have to wait.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] eatkabab:
Any chance the MHL adapter also charges the phone? With 1%/min or game play, I can't imagine it will last very long during a game and outputting to TV...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] TLS2000:
Yes it charges the phone, but it also uses up about 200ma itself so make sure you've got a good charger.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] s3xda:
I dont know if most are aware but it seems as if samsung or some of the carriers are doing a dropbox promotion for 50GB of free cloud storage for 2 yrs. A hell of a deal on already a very capable phone. I called up sprint to ask about the promotion and they hadnt heard of it. Fortunately, I did not quit and stumbled upon this link

https://www.dropbox.com/gs

I kno it seems like bs, but do the 7 steps on the screen. After doing that my drop box went from 2GB to that plus 50GB.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Milk Tea:
..it's

extremely

old news that the Galaxy S III was launching with 50 GB of temporary Dropbox space. It was widely reported that AT&T and other U.S. carriers had "opted out" of the promotion and denied it to US customers.

Are you a U.S. phone user or other? I wasn't aware any U.S. Galaxy S III owners could get in on the promotion.

AT&T and Verizon models are not eligible for this promotion. It is well known that the Sprint and T-Mobile versions are. If you are on the latter two carriers, then you will be credited this automatically when you set up Dropbox on your S3.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] chrischoi:
You probably didn't go through the how to.

If you go to your local T-Mo store, you can factory reset a HTC One S, log into DB, fly through the menu and log out. Get I think it was an additional 20-25GB on top of your 50GB you just got.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] zaisaroni:
