i installed it and started it.

now it asks me to connect to a host.

i honestly dont know what im doing here.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuisma:
Select "local", give the session some name of you choice and connect. Now you are running a local shell in the same way as using "adb shell". You are familiar with "adb shell"..?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IndigoHD:
isnt adb shell a terminal that accepts commands either locally or by usb connection?

choose partition size on left (says what you need in the 1stv post of whatever rom you choose)

click 'repartition magldr'

reboot

'instal zip from sd - choose zip - ' select the romyouchose.zip which you already moved to sd card

done.

So yeah, as the title goes I'm a newbie in the Android world and to the Samsung Galaxy S3. I'm a computer enthusiast myself and am quite familiar with technology. I came from an iPhone 3G that can be easily Jailbroken. Now for Android, is rooting=jailbreaking? Is there a good guide here that I can follow and learn all things about rooting and customizing the hell out of my Android phone? :)

TIA for the help.

I was like you 2 weeks ago But I came from a Iphone4-jailbroken etcc

Now I have flashed around 10 times. I have rooted the phone same amount and am on the same level as I was with Iphone. But let me tell you buddy Android is never ending there is NO LIMIT its nuts. Root is like the Mother jailbreak . Flash means Installing ssomething new. Usually flashing a rom which means installing a new operating system or UI.

But yeh late nights got me knowing alot so good luck

Android is already jailbroken basically. Root is Super Jailbreak. Custom Roms are mainly used for theming, performance, etc.

i just got a new s3 so um pretty much in the same boat as you mate :D although this isnt my 1st android...i came from another...the sony ericsson arc s...so far.....i am really liking this.....i wanna use the s3 as it is for a couple of days before i start modding it like i did the arc......1 question....do i need to unlock the bootloader to install custom roms? or do i just root & install recovery & be done with it?? i read something about odin....sorry for the noob question but is odin like flashtool for sony ericsson phones?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btemtd:
Steps:

Download Odin 3.04

Download Cf_root6.4 and flash Via Odin = PHONE ROOTED

Now you automatically have CWM a new recovery boot from the above root file, which will now allow you to flash Rom zip's in recovery mode.

thats it
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alankstiyo:
glad to see new ppl coming to the android world.

my advise, root it and get rid from all the crap your carrier may have installed, update your phone and install any app you may like xD

for real????
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevindd992002:
Thanks :) When you say crap installed by my carrier, like what app?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Carriers may install a boot screen extra apps bookmarks and possibly disable OTA updates .Then again they may not have installed anything at all .

jje
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevindd992002:
OTA updates are through packet data, right?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Via network yes about phone software updates as and when vendor pushes ota updates .

jje
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevindd992002:
So when the carrier pushes it, you have no choice but to update the phone?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linx1287:

---------- Post added at 07:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 AM ----------

also i noticed that when i fiddle with the equalizer...the volume drops considerably...is this capped by the stock kernel or rom??
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevindd992002:
Is it not recommended to use Odin 3.07 because it is the latest? The download links provide 3.04.

Also, I read here that it is not 100% sure if TraingleAway will work to reset the binary counter if we flash with Odin, is this true?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
I use old Odin v 1 .3 with no problems .

Your link is for a different phone .

Odin itself cannot do as described in that post its the firmware not Odin that sets the counter .

Mobile Odin Pro may not add to rom counter in many cases .

USB Jig does not reset rom counter on I9300.

TA works for thousands and i have yet to see a problem posted .However as will any modification at low level the risk is always there even if it be a very small risk .

Suggestion is to only use TA when needed .

jje
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevindd992002:
I don't get it, my link is for the Galaxy SIII as indicatd in its title. Why were you saying it's for a different phone?

Is there already a Mobile Odin Pro that we can use to root our devices?

Is USB Jig the same as TA?

What is the best way to root our devices, using Odin+CF or using the Toolkit? In the end, they just have the same effect of a rooted phone, right?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oookram:
in my opinion odin+CF is easier, so I suggest it to you, even if they have the same effect.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevindd992002:
I really don't mind which is "easier" per se. I want to know the advantages and disadvantages between both?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
from the play store(titanium backup) if you buy pro version you get batch backup and restore ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevindd992002:
Right, thanks :)

So regarding ROMs, which ones are "usually" installed by users? I can install now with the CWM right?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
have a look in development and read up on the Roms, check the last few pages of posts to see if there are any problems, and then make your own choice, but before anything make a nandroid backup in recovery, this will give you a restore point of anything goes wrong
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevindd992002:
Ok. I did a backup with CWM, is that a full nandroid?

Also, if I can just go ahead and ran any apk file using the file explorer (built-in) of my device, what then is the use of the "install apk" feature under the CWM GUI?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linx1287:
i just rooted & installed cwm using odin & cf root..... can anyone tell me how i can install custom kernels & roms?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
Download them from xda (.tar for Odin and .zip for cwm)

Boot into recovery

Install zip from sdcard

Select the zip from the download folder and select yes when prompted.

No need to wipe when flashing kernels

If going from one type of Rom to another you may need to wipe.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linx1287:
i wish to flash this kernel http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1708763 i saw that when i try to use the equalizer, the volume drops sharply...i read somewhere in xda that one of the kernels that can fix this is franco...is this it? do i select the PDA button on odin to flash this kernel?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
Yes Franco kernel has a sound boost feature, siyah kernel has this too.

It really does improve the volume a lot.

Yep, pop it into the PDA section of Odin and away you go.

You should download mobile Odin from the play store, well worth the money and it makes everything simple, it selects where to put the file so all you need to do is find the Rom, kernel, modem whatever and mobile Odin does the rest.

---------- Post added at 03:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:54 AM ----------

could you suggest a good jelly bean rom for this kernel? something that doesnt have dsp manager or google play music....i kinda like the touchwiz music player & its music enhancements
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
You can get it free here on xda.

Well you can try supernexus or nocoasts liquid jellybean rom, they won't have touchwiz music player though, that's only on Sammy roms.

I use the official samsung jellybean leaks.

If you are gonna flash one of those I suggest the DLH8 one, I'm using DLH9 right now but a few ppl are having keyboard fc's and I've had them on anything other than the Samsung stock keyboard.

1 last question...are there any sound mods i can flash? when i was using the arc s....there were loads of sound enhancing mods so i was wondering if that sorta thing is here as well?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
Flash Franco or siyah and you won't need any enhancements, siyah is more customisable, it has an audio tab in the stweaks app that lets you change eq settings with either presets or manually.

Those kernels won't work on the jellybean leaks though, not until Samsung release the sources the jellybean leaks come with the touchwiz music player and the volume is boosted in jellybean too.

Pls ignore, already answered.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:
No custom kernels work in jellybean leaks yet. Samsung haven't yet released the source code for the kernel. Enjoy jellybean it's looking good although it still has a few annoying bugs, which is enough to keep me from using it as a daily driver.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linx1287:
yea....the only reason i am still hesitating to move to the leaks is because of all the bugs the other users are complaining about.....i just wanted to know the prerequisites to moving to 1....so stock kernel it is then?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] akates:
So I use bluetooth for both phone and music in my car but my phone pairs to two separate devices. For the phone it pairs to my Audi MMI system and does so correctly every time. For the audio I have it pair with my Blackberry Stereo gateway which is hard wired into my aux input.

The issue I'm having is that if I'm connected in both Headset (Audi) and a2dp (Blackberry gateway) modes, the music will start to skip after a minute or two. It works completely fine for a few minutes, then I believe the phone is going into some sort of sleep state as it'll begin skipping fairly often. If I turn the screen back on, the skipping goes away. The strange part is that if I disconnect the pairing with the phone, the skipping never happens. It's almost as if there is enough juice in awake mode to correctly power both bluetooth connections, but if it's in some form of low power sleep mode, it's not able to handle both connections so the bluetooth audio skips.

I've also found that if I'm paired to both, the call quality over bluetooth is slightly lower with a bit of crackling/garbling, but not nearly as bad as what I get with the audio. I can deal with the phone side of the issue, but I can't listen to music that skips every 5 seconds.

Anyone else have this issue? I wish I could set it so the phone wouldn't sleep when paired to both devices! I don't mind a bit more battery drain while in the car if my phone is actually usable for what I want to do with it.
