I was able to update. I thanks for help

---------- Post added at 02:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:34 PM ----------

The instructions I was using were incorrect code to enter in emulator I was being told to enter 1 instead of l. Got cm10 installed now just trying to figure out why Google now doesn't respond-no sound. No sound playback
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
Audio responses in Google Now require your language to be set to English (US) within the Google Now settings.

Where are my instructions wrong? I don't see a mistake in the code, perhaps you misread it?

How big should my resulting nandroid backup file be? I'm using cwm touch recovery 6.0.1.4. and my resulting file is only 21 MB. It seems like on my Atrix the file was more like 1.5 gigs.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
While I can't even begin to troubleshoot CWM issues in this thread, that is actually correct - for the /backup/ portion.

CWM has started doing file-by-file backups into the "blobs" folder, organized by MD5 into subfolders just to help search faster. If you do 20 identical nandroid backups, you're only going to store 1 copy of the files, which are then linked to by the /backup/<date>/system.ext4.dup files. This allows the backups to be smaller and reduce unnecessary RW operations on the SD card by only storing files if they are unique, and just keeping them stored with the MD5 as the filename. The backup just lists the MD5s and filenames, and the restore process rebuilds the partition using that information.

This whole process is called "deduplication" and is a great step forward in space conservation. Honestly, I didn't even know that this was a feature of CWM until your post had me look at my own /backup/ folder, but I really like it.

hello! i've been a user of CWM for about 3 years now, so i just go with what i feel comfortable using.

now i'm going to give TWRP a chance, and was wondering if it's possible to install TWRP to replace CWM via GooManager? would any harm come about from doing it this way?

if this is a bad way, what method should i go to switch from CWM to TWRP?

edit: i think i found the answer here...

http://forums.androidcentral.com/sprint-galaxy-s-iii-rooting-roms-hacks/212579-cwm-twrp.html

in short, it's fine to use Goo Manager to switch to TWRP?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jethro650:
I used goo manager without problems. There is a thread in the dev forum with a cwm flashable version if you prefer....just look for the twrp recovery thread
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sailzfast:
So...how do I get "reboot into recovery" to show up in my restart menu? I installed recovery via goomanager, but don't see the option to boot into recovery anywhere? TIA
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
That option is ROM dependent, it's called a 4-way reboot and it's something you should ask your ROM developer to add.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhomiec:
sweet. i found it here...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=30765400&postcount=159

i guess i'll try the Goo Manager method first, and if it doesn't work, i'll have this ZIP file to flash as a backup method.

edit: so i just tried installing TWRP via Goo Manager, and it worked. ^_^

i assume if i ever want to go back to CWM, i can just use ROM Manager to install that then? =P

are you on a custom ROM? i've normally only seen this show up once flashing a custom ROM. (i am currently rooted on stock with CWM as my recovery, and i don't have the option to reboot into recovery)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
You can use any of the methods in the OP to install whichever recovery you want, irregardless of what recovery you're currently running. Already having TWRP or CWM allows you to use ZIP installers for either recovery from inside either recovery. (Ex: Old CWM -> New CWM; Old CWM -> New TWRP; Old TWRP -> New CWM; Old TWRP -> New TWRP)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wgr73:
Great thread!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Reidicus:
Thankyou!

Thanks for the write up. I have AT&T CWMT on my Koodo phone. Already made a backup. Everything works fine. Thanks Again.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Covenn:
Just curious, why no mention of flashing a custom recovery by using Mobile Odin?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
Because I honestly have never used it and don't see how it could be any different from manually installing a recovery via ADB or Terminal. AFAIK, that's all it does anyway.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TRusselo:
you forgot one method.

Odin

CWM_Recovery_6.0.1.2.tar

easiest by far to me. installing recovery from rom manager or goo manager (as im sure you know) doesnt like the 747M versions, to get them to recognize our phone you must be rooted and mod your build.prop.... borring!

Odin DONE.boot into recovery and flash root.

Double DONE
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
I've never liked flashing through Odin because of the flash counter so I never even looked for an Odin-flashable CWM. I'll update the OP later today. :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sykotyk:
I'd hate to bug you all but am at work and searching forums while boss is out of office. Tried flashing rom but failed (assuming because the rom is d2att and im d2can and i have to delete the check it preforms in the beginning) getting fail /status 7 it says assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "d2att" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "d2att" e:Error in /sdcard/aokp_d2att_nightly_2013-06-15.zip . Trying to restore nandroid and is failed while restoring /data. I made two backups and they are both doing the same thing. Can i restore in advance and install everything except data? FML
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
Status 7

never

means you should edit the ROM; You should figure out why the recovery is refusing the ROM in the first place.

I'd suggest rebooting into recovery, formatting /data, rebooting into recovery again, and trying to restore a backup. If you're running TWRP, there's a d2can version that will cause assert/status 7 errors because it doesn't match the expected d2att properties. Make sure you're on the newest d2att recovery and try flashing again.

Need some help please

Hello everybody,

I am a beginner in the cell phones' field and I need some help please. I lately rooted my device (which is a Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini GT-I8190N 4.1.2) and I am currently trying to install a recovery. I downloaded Goomanager but I when I run it and hit Menu to select Install OpenRecovery, I get "no recoveries were found for your device".

Could you please tell what to do in this situation?

Thank you
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
I'd suggest checking out the subforum for your device, located here: [link]

Is there a way to flash the default recovery without adb? Don't want to wait until I'm home this evening. Got a update this morning on telus.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
Sure, just follow the manual steps using Terminal Emulator right on your device. No ADB needed!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jordan.harris01:

Thanks for the stock recovery image

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone here who posted the stock recovery image. I've been looking for it for days so I could restore it and get the OTA update to 4.1.2 installed. Any suggestions on resetting the flash counter? I've got Triangle Away installed, but I'm a little gun shy since my device isn't listed as supported in the thread.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
Triangle Away works perfectly fine on this device, and it's pretty much the only way to get an OTA to apply after you've tripped the flash counter.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rstepanick:
Hopefully someone can help me out, been at this for a couple of days trying to get a custom recovery on this device (i747m), but every time I load a recovery I just get the downloading screen. Rooted using CF-Autoroot, tried using Mobile Odin, Goo Manager, Rom Manager, and manually as shown in this thread. been searching for hours, maybe I just keep looking over the answer?

Running stock 4.3.

Any thoughts would be great!

Simple ,fast and easy :P
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SterneSchreien:
I own a Samsung galaxy s3 i747m from Koodo, which method should I use? In OPs post it says the i747m is not supported? Also, one of my friends with a galaxy s2 told me installing cwm on his phone removed the "Koodo" that appears on the lock screen and when you pull down the status bar, is that true?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
The M is not properly recognized by the app I mentioned. You can still use any of the other methods to install a recovery, although I strongly suggest TWRP over CWM (much easier to use and many more functions)

Changing your recovery will not make any changes to your Android OS, not even removing the carrier logo/branding. Once you've got a custom recovery though, you can flash any ROM you want, and no other ROMs will have that branding. (I don't know how the partition layout on the S2 worked, maybe the recovery and Android shared a kernel and that's why his changed?)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SterneSchreien:
Can I flash the recovery using Odin? It seems simplier than using adb or mobile terminal. I used your Terminal Emulator method and it worked flawlessly and very simply, thanks a lot!

If anyone has any further questions about recoveries on the S3, please note that I have moved on to another device. Sorry!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hypertek:
So I had this idea, i know Ive seen how some other carriers offer things for their S3 owners, maybe we can change the phone identity by the build prop?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hypertek:
alright guys, Ill have to post up what I get, so far I changed to GT-I9100 as an S2 and got some games for it. so Ill post up when i get time .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twolfekc:
Post now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hypertek:
So far I got Modern Combat 3 and GT (racing game from Gameloft). I saw shadowgun on there too. All from setting it as S2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hypertek:
Ok i tried Galaxy s, S2, and international S3. I was hoping to score Dead Space since I love the pc games.. but it was a no go. When you set it as galaxy s or s2, and go to the samsung store, than to the game section. You get a few Gameloft and EA games. Only ones I got where Modern Combat 2, Modern Combat 3, and GT Free (wannabe Gran Turismo, but its not bad).

I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY IF YOU MESS UP.

If you did root, and loaded up a rom, than this shouldn't be hard at all.

Make a Nandroid back up first .(This saved my butt because I didn't use a build prop editor the first time around, and I could not boot, so i restored a back up and was good to go.)

Make sure you use a build prop editor from the play store. . Then in the build prop editer, back up your build prop file so you can always go back to it after your done.

Make the following changes (this is what mine looks like, yours could be different)

ro.product.model=SCH-I535

ro.product.brand=Verizon

ro.product.name=d2vzw

ro.product.device=d2vzw

to

ro.product.model=GT-I9100

ro.product.brand=Samsung

ro.product.name=GT-I9100

ro.product.device=GT-I9100

save and reboot, than go to samsung store and collect. Install what you want. After all is done, restore your build prop back up .

I think this might work for other offers too. I don't know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] voodoomanx:
My build prop says samsung not verizon for brand.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Excessiveidling:
Not sure if it still does but I know when I edited the build.prop on my nook tablet to make it appear I think as a nexus (very similar process) I was able to get free extra levels on angry birds space. So WITHIN certain apps if your build.prop is edited to another device you can get extra 'perks/freebies'

Has anyone tried this yet to get the Avengers movie that T-Mobile is offering?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ponyboy82:
Curious about this one as well. I already have the MC games, etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hypertek:
I tried to do it , downloaded a tmobile rom just to look at the build prop. but the Media Hub application would not run for me, saying something about being imcompatible. Im sure it has something to do with the full build prop and not just the parts I edited above.

But I already saw the movie, so figured its just too much work.

Hey guys,

First post here :)

Literally just flashed my S3 the other day to cm10 jelly bean ressurection remix the other day, and although its fast and what I'm after, it just doesn't feel as stable or, ERM how to put it...'authentic' as stock jelly bean on the nexus.

My dilemma is, I'm actually thinking of selling my S3 for galaxy nexus.

Opinions?
[General Questions and Answers] gagdude:
I'm not sure what you mean by "authentic"...?

The S3 still has way better specs, and pair it with AOSP and its far better than a Galaxy Nexus
[General Questions and Answers] Nath1492:
Huge N00B question here,

What's 'AOSP'?
[General Questions and Answers] wessyh0:
Android Open Source Project ^^
[General Questions and Answers] gagdude:
Yup, basically all Nexii are AOSP and the only reason the S 3 is really "worse" is because of touchwiz and slower update (of course tw is a preference thing).

But all CM roms are AOSP so you pretty much have the nexus thing going on your S3

[EVO 4G General] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Its probably something in iOS6, apparently there's a few problems with the new iPhone some people I know are not very happy they waited in line for several days to get it. Scratched out of the box, scratched even worse after 2days of use, mostly from rings hitting the case. Apples maps couldn't find its way out of a wet lunch sack. Among other things that are either the exact same as the 4s or aren't at all what apple hyped em up to be. I would guess there's a problem with the SMS conversion on the iOS end which is leaving the messages in limbo
