Nice. I think you know that "CF" AutoRoot is by Chainfire, :D, too.

But, I think Mobile Odin Pro requires root to begin with, right? CF Autoroot roots stock, unrooted firmware.

I've resorted to the fact that I'll be tripping that flash counter anyways, some way or another. TriangleAway is cheap enough, anyways, and, hehe, towards our lovely developer.

Disable all the location services. With Google Now, they kept my phone awake 100% of the time when I updated.

Also, for your picture management, look at QuickPic. Clean, fast, and very customizable Gallery replacement app.

Hi thanks for the reply tge rom was good but i was looking for something like Intergalactic ii it includes the samdung framework to use the allshare app,.is all i was under the inpresion that any stock would work but after a lot of trial and error figured out what i needed...they were all good roms but for me intergalactic ii did it. thanks for the reply do.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Bruce Lee:
I don't think so. Being rooted with a custom recovery doesn't let the phone do ota updates.

There are a few root apps like super user and supersu that have options within the app to keep root. But I never used it.

Mobil Odin help

Ok all, I'm somewhat of a noob.

I have the AT&T Galaxy S3. I747

I have rooted stock ICS along with CWM installed.

My question is can I use mobile odin pro to install the AT&T JB update?

I know I can with odin, but I bought the mobile pro version hoping it will without any problems.

It's hard finding much info on mobil odin and how to use it.

Do I need to wipe? and what? and keep CWM or write over it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx

I've gone from Odin desktop to CF Autoroot these days, and it takes half a minute to root. Just make sure you use the version for your model phone (assuming your phone is no longer rooted).

Then install ROM Manager and use it to install CWM.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dtrinh11:
Hi everyone,

I'm new to Android so I'm not so sure about going about doing something. Already hard bricked my S3 on the first rom flash (failed!) so I want to make sure.

I'm trying to flash a ROM, Intergalactic v 2.1 for AT&T S3 I-747. The instruction is clear but there is one thing that bothers me.

So here is the Installation Instructions:

Download ROM to SD card

Download Stock kernel to SD card (you may need this just in case you are unhappy with OC/UV kernel)

Install ROM to your phone's SD card

Reboot into recovery

Do a factory reset

Wipe cache and dalvik cache

Wipe system

Flash Rom (This process may take a minute or two)

Wipe cache and dalvik cache again just to be safe

Reboot and enjoy

On the 3rd one there, "Install ROM to your phone's SD card" what does it really mean? I know how to boot in recovery mode and install rom from a zip file, but not sure about that one. ROM Manager has a feature "Install ROM from SD card" is that what I want to do???

Please help.

Thank you
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eddied042092:
I think all it means is to move the zip file to the internal memory instead of leaving it on the external sd card, because when you go into cwm(the recovery mode) and you're flashing the new rom the first option i believe is to install from sd card. And then towards the bottom it says install from external sd card. So my guess is the instructions just wanted it to be on internal sd so you dont scroll towards the install from external option.

I seem to remember that I had issues on XP having phone consistently recognized when it was plugged into USB. Make sure you use cable that came with phone -- oddly, not all USB cables are exactly alike for all devices. And you will need the Samsung USB drivers installed. I seem to remember these were available separately if you didn't want to install Kies.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eduardo_b:
Don't know about Google accounts, although I think these are backed up to Google if that's what you select in account settings, but you can use Titanium Backup to back up apps and data. Frankly, I can't imagine it would take much effort to simply flash Gaaps and reenter login info. But for other apps with data, TB would be helpful.

That was often the situation for me -- the laptop was Vista SP2 while the desktop was XP SP3.

Sometimes manually setting the phone to USB mode will cause XP to recognize the phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Bubba:
It's best to be plugged into a usb port that is directly attached to the motherboard. Like on on the back of the computer instead of one on the front that's in a hub. Hence that is way it works on the laptop and not the pc most likely.

Also USB cords are not created equally. Best to use the one that came in the box with the phone.

In TiBu, you can backup "Data usage (policy & stats)", and it's one of the only pieces of system data I bother to backup so that I don't get hit with overages.

When you restore it after a clean wipe, your overall data usage will be correct, however all the subtotals for the various reinstalled apps will be mismatched because they got new ids that don't match the old... so it's a trade off

I'm coming from trusty old i897. On that device the only sure way of hard bricking was by messing with bootloaders (ei mismatching or corrupting it by flashing bootloaders packages). Now on my new i747 I want to limit possible risk as much as I can. I'm assuming same applies if I corrupt bootloaders its hardbricked (or flashing roms/kernerls from other SoC devices). My question is can I remove the bootloaders from the .tar if so which ones are they? I see aboot.mbn (I believe that has to do with app partition), sbl2 and sbl3 (secondary bootloaders). My logic is if I can remove sbl2 and sbl3 I can drastically reduce my chances of a hard brick. Any insight would be wonderful. Meanwhile I will continue looking around.

I'm currently running stock ICS that's rooted. I have CMW installed and everything is well. I would like to jump up to JB.

CWM lists my device (AT&T Samsung galaxy S3 w/ JB) as 'unsupported device'

Brand new phone, just out of the box. Upgrade to Jelly Bean. I then followed Mr. Robinson to use ODIN and get the phone rooted (a first for this noobie). Installed Titanium backup and backed everything up (using the free version)

.. from what I can gather, my next step is to use ROM manager v5.5.1.5 to flash ClockworkMod Recovery (CWM, right?). but when I try do so, my Samsung Galaxy S3 (AT&T) is listed as "unsupported device".

Is this a dead end for me then? Is there another way to move forward and start exploring ROM's other than the stack Samsung Jelly Bean?

Here is an excellent stupid question for all of you:

How do I partition my external SD card using TWRP?

I tried to backup my ROM today using TWRP and it kept failing, giving me the "SD card failed to load" error, this after I formatted it in FAT32 on my computer. It would also create extremely corrupted files I couldn't read with random file names. After some googling I figured that it must have been a partition issue. Alas, in the latest version of TWRP, I could only find the option to format the SD card, which I did, and the same message continued. So, I put CWM recovery onto my phone, created a 4048 MB partition with a 128 MB cache, reinstalled TWRP, and the backup process went just fine after that.

Honestly, I bought this SD card and put it in my phone because I want to have a backup ROM "just in case" somehow my internal memory gets formatted. Any help would be appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Expydude:
The sd card twrp referred to was the internal SD. I personally didn't change my external to fat32 may by that was why it wouldn't work properly. I believe in the twrp thread it say supports exfat format

Ive recently rooted my GS3 and installed TWRP through Goo Manager in the Play Store. I rebooted into recovery and backed up everything.

When I try flashing either CM10 or AOKP I get errors:

CM10 - I get a status 7 error when trying to flash the zip file. Ive tried 2 different nightlies with same result.

AOKP M1 - It flashes successful but when I restart my phone, the rom does not work properly. When I pull the notification bar down, the settings button doesnt work. When I try loading anything that uses a keyboard, I get keyboard fc's.

So I rebooted back into recovery, wiped everything and restored my backup for now.

Is there something I am missing here?

I am doing the typical factory reset, wipe, dalvik wipe, format system before flashing any roms and cant seem to get either rom to work. Any help would be much appreciated.
