Most new users don't browse the stickies, just notice the large no. of redundant and useless threads. They just open the thread pertaining to the rom they want and that's that. It would be nice if each Rom had either the rom manager removed or a warning with the download link itself

the only step is just press volume down home power button but without panicking, panicking is the main reason of can't able to get into download mode

then just flash with odin, dont think it cannot get into dl mode, dl mode is controlled by bootloader and bootloader is not removed by rom manager
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] domcale:
Unsuccesfull flash of bootloader hard-bricks our device, so you can't enter DL mode.

You can always give it a shot with a USB JIG* tho. But in most cases, the only thing that helps is JTAG.

*USB JIG - a 301k resistor between the 4th and 5th pin on the microUSB connector.

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] smitharro:
Sorry you had to learn it the hard way. When you're new in this world it's easy to 'trust' all CM standard apps. Nevertheless: using CM means you're a root user. Your phone is rooted which means you can seriously damage your phone when you don't know what youre doing. That's exactly the reason why your phone is NOT rooted when you buy it, and your garantee is void when you root it yourself!

Some of these apps provide a warning: with great power comes great responsability!

Nevertheless: the first thing i do when i buy a new Android is rooting it! But a general warning is at place: root apps can damage your phone. Especially those to install roms. Even with a proper CWM you can flash a wrong or faulty Rom. The risk of bricking your phone is always there.

So think twice when you buy a new phone and read all about flashing on XDA!

All ICS roms have bugs. Look in Dev thread for CM9 or AOKP.

Spend at least 4 hours reading how to prepare and install, 2 hours reading what to do when unexpected things happen during/after flash, and 1 hour being sorry wasting your and others time on such impossible question usually followed by biased opinions.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazenz:
In terms of which ROM is best, unfortunately there is no answer.

Each rom is different (obviously) so people prefer different roms that fit their different needs.

I'd personally recommend something like SlimICS, TiramiSLIM, or DarkyROM Black Edition.

Slim ICS is a cut down version, no extravagant features.

TiramiSLIM has an easy installation process (if already rooted) and has lots of customization options.

DarkyROM is one of my favourites, but I just upgraded to Jellybean.

You want to know all the steps to installation?

One of the best guides I've found is for the Team 3xtr3me ICS333 rom.

Link here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=25722239#post25722239

It goes through installation of a rooted Gingerbead (2.3) rom via odin, which is the part most ROM installation guides assume you have already done.

From there you should be able to follow almost any ROM's guide for installation.

Hope this helped.

Team Nyx did it for me

I've given a lot of roms a run for their money, but one simply stuck with me...

Suffice to say, I am extremly glad I've found the Team Nyx thread to see they're still working on their ICS 4.0.4 awesome rom.

I've currently just installed it after having tried a few other for a while, and it works exactly as I've hoped and expected...smooth, fast, no lag, and persistent - so congrats to the developers on their work. I have to admit that this is by far the best rom I have ever used, and it makes my old Samsung galaxy S I9000 feels like a S III.

I did have some hurdles while installing, bootloops and all, had to flash a recoveryfix.tar, and flash the latest devil kernel....but other than that...it's all good.

My last ROM was the GOA ROM 6.0. It was nearly perfect and had only one disadvantage: Unfortunately, no newer ROM as the GB v2.3.6. will come.

Now I have changed my ROM to the TeamRemics RemICS v1.3.1 ROM, I test it currently and I like it.

If I am allowed, I would like to call with pleasure proposals for the other improvement:

Nova Launcher

Dark / glass Theme and optically more attractively... Examples: Infowars3.5 or Turkbey

Status bar (boringly):

Percent announcement for the battery

more quick accesses, for example: Data (on/off), flashlight (on/off) …

a fire-fighting badge around announcements in the status bar to extinguish

I'm using the Phone Info app since under ICS we can't change to CDMA only (when LTE is having issues).

So... what is the 'normal' mode for the phone (RAZR w/ICS)? LTE/CDMA?EvDO? LTE/CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA? Or what?

Lots of selections; just curious as to what it should be set back to if/when I am done fiddling with it.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1v Android Development] amiuhle:
Hi all,

so I tried to flash the latest CM9 Nightly for the first time.

Unlocking and rooting worked fine. I then tried to install the latest CWM Recovery using the heimdall method from my Mac using this guide:

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1v:_Full_Update_Guide

That didn't work because heimdall seems to have a bug, it was unable to connect. I then booted my Tab and flashed CMW Recovery using ROM Manager. It just had an option for Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, not for the 10.1v. I guess that's where I made my mistake, because I tried the Recovery for the 10.1.

I then tried to install the latest CM9 nightly, which failed with the error message

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "p3" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "p3"

I figured that was because I had used the wrong recovery, so later at night, when I had access to a Windows PC, I tried flashing the recovery.tar.md5 using Odin 1.85. It gives me a success message, and I am able to do a normal reboot.

When I do

adb shell
su
reboot recovery

or when I use ROM Manager to boot into recovery, the Tab reboots and I see a green Android with an Exclamation mark on a yellow triangle. The Tab doesn't respond to any Volume UP/DOWN keypresses. It just stays in that mode for a couple of minutes, and then does a normal reboot.

From that point on, I can do normal reboots and they work just fine, but I just can't get into a working recovery.

My best guess would be that installing the 10.1 Recovery messed up my partition table or something like that.

Any ideas how I should continue?

Thanks a lot,

amiuhle
[Galaxy Tab 10.1v Android Development] eisdrachen:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1v Android Development] ramonams:

Ok I have made the stupidest and idiotic attempt to upgrade from 4.0.4 to 4.1 jelly bean on GSM Galaxy Nexus.

Basically, my phone was already rooted and unlocked, so I made a nandroid copy and off I went into recovery mode, trying to install the yakju zip file to manually update the firmware.

After I installed it and rebooted, it seems like it wasn't installed on some sort of internal storage that was only 66mb and I have lost my SD card and no user settings can be saved onto it. I realised this because if I went into recovery mode again and reboot normally, I will have to go through the initial setup all over again!!! At this point, if I tried to go back to nandroid copy, I could have done so easily.

BUT I made the mistake of trying to wipe all user data again and now everything on my SD card has been wiped out, including my nandroid copy and the ability to restore my nandroid back up!!! So if i tried to flash clockwork recovery image and restore, there is nothing in there for me to restore.... and I don't have access to the 13gb SD storage from phone or computer!!

Try re-flashing a stock rom, root, unlock, flash recovery.

On Galaxy SIII, the SD card is configured as a secondary external storage.

This is configured by Samsung. Nothing developers can do about this.

Please contact Samsung for details

I did, this was there answer:

Thank you for contacting Samsung Customer Care.

It means that according to the makers of the application that because of the way the Samsung Galaxy S III is configured this application will not work with it. This configuration cannot be changed either so you will not be able to use that application.

I would suggest that you check the Google Play Store for an alternative application with a similar function and you may be able to find one that will meet your needs and can work with the Samsung Galaxy S III.

There is a alternative (Directory Bind) but you will require root, it also requires some work but once you get it setup it works pretty well, certain games will load slower when put on the external card as its not as fast as the internal card.
