[General Questions and Answers] malmostoso:
Hello everybody, I have flashed my Trio 7c with a CM9 image and everything works apart from Wifi.

It is probably a missing kernel module, as specified in this thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1863508&page=2

I'd love to help but of course I can't post in there since I need 10 messages.

If anyone can help here until I can post in there, thank you.

One relevant question: what's the best way to export terminal output to post it here?

Thank you!

I just bought a galaxy s2 skyrocket and its acting like if someone is touching stuff and sometimes screen is kind of unresponsive. Please help

Ps i think the screen might have been replaced
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shadowskorch:
Sometimes turning the screen off, waiting three seconds, and turning the screen on again will fix unresponsiveness. If the screen will not take ANY user input, then try a reboot. I don't know what you mean by "it acts like someone is touching stuff"?

What do u mean.. Should i turn off the phone or ?? And i mean it acts like im touching apps and stuff when im not even touching the phone so it just opens random apps
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] quikt:
backup up your phone with cwm, then factory reset or odin to stock so you start fresh and if you are still having the screen randomly pressed its probably hardware issue.

maybe the update file is badly downloaded. try reflashing it
[Galaxy S III General] slaphead20:
just a slight correction/heads up.... if you root with cf root then cwm recovery is installed, hence no need to use Rom manager, it's kinda outdated now imho

---------- Post added at 05:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:49 PM ----------

further to that you may want to provide instructions after the rooting process on how to get into recovery and download mode
[Galaxy S III General] Stormlister:
Thanks, I will note that above.
[Galaxy S III General] musclehead84:
The stock rom at the bottom goes to the international version rom. I found this thread in the Sprint version so u might want to note that. If someone were to flash that they wouldn't boot up.

I had question regarding Odin behaving strangely, make sure KIES is stopped in your services. I have added it in the tutorial.
[Galaxy S III General] OverRipeBananas:
Do you mean Kies ? (Samsung) good tut for super noobs btw
[Galaxy S III General] morchi:
i would recommend you to recommend not installing Kies at all, or uninstall it if installed.

any backup that you can do with it, can be done by 3rd party apps. it has a lot of security issues. and worst, its slow as hell.

i think a person that want to root his phone and flash a custom rom, will have no need of it anyway.

Edit: thumbs up for the effort! i could have really used such guide when i just started, instead i learned it the hard way!
[Galaxy S III General] Stormlister:
Yes, yes Kies, thanks for spotting it :)
[Galaxy S III General] MrEdgar:
Thanks, I'll try this soon! Glad I found this, voiding warranty still sounds scary. I have other rooted devices and sometimes they can blow me away, so I think I'll go for it anyway.

Cheers.
[Galaxy S III General] Stormlister:
I personally think it is well worth-it, it is almost as if the phones turns into mini super computer when rooted. It is so much fun to have a ROM installed and setup that you are completely happy with, removing bloatware, no intrusive ads. Just stay away from overclocking, I think that is taking it too far if you are a scary pants like myself.

Also, you know how the retailers are, they almost never deliver on their warranty anyway.
[Galaxy S III General] bootx1:
No offence, but given this guide is designed 'for the ultimate noob' AND it has been stickied, there are some glaringly obvious things missing, that should be cover at the beginning of your post/guide before hitting the processes of

In the first post, you do not cover information pertaining to the flash counter and triangle away, and most importantly by far, BACKING UP THE EFS. Also, possible risks from installing potentially malicious apks from 'other sources' to a rooted device.
[Galaxy S III General] g-m1n1:
Good job! :good:
[Galaxy S III General] Stormlister:
None taken, but in a community it works like this. We build a tutorial together. Instead of taking the time pointing out what you think is missing. Why did you not just write the part so I could add it? This tutorial is based on the international version, I am not sure if the triangle notification does not affect this version but I could not test it as I did not ran into this problem.

Regarding the EFS, I will do some research regarding this and add it to the tutorial.
[Galaxy S III General] Stormlister:
I have added detail on backing up EFS folder and also triangle away.

[Galaxy S III General] asukaj:
Hey guys.

First of all thank you for starting this tutorial.

I am a total noob considering android since i just switched from ish**t to this amazing software and mobile and this tutorial will help me alot.

I started reading xda forums but it was very hard getting the needed info since there are a lot of short names for stuf CWM AFS AOKP ROM....etc i am sure i misspelled some:)

Anyways i have a few questions and i am asking them here since this is the easiest and quickest was to get up to speed with rooting (cant keep track of everything about sgs3 i work alot so...)

I have the stock firmware on my galaxy.

It is bought in croatia and from T mobile.

I would like to root and put some custom ROM since i like my galaxy very much and would like to make the best out of it by speeding it up more...

I like the android revolutionHD ROM-seems speed up enough.

Do i have to take the ROM that is made from my stock firmware -because i have read the android revolution HD rom info and there it saids it is from stock JB 4.1.1...this means i cant use this one?

Still learning my way with shortcuts

Hope u get the question i will have morw of them for sure.

[Galaxy S III General] Irrorate:
Excellent guide. I always thought rooting was a difficult process, but loading CF-Root on to my phone via Odin made it really easy!

Now I'm trying to find a good ROM, so far tried MIUI and CM10.
[Galaxy S III General] Stormlister:
You are over complicating it, all you need it the ROM you are interested in. However, seeing that you bought it from T-Mobile, does that mean it is the T-Mobile version or the International version. The reason I am wondering is because Revolution HD is based (meaning they took the international Jelly Bean stock ROM and improved it) around the International ROM (GT-I9300), this will cause problems for you if you dont have the international version as there are drastic differences.

Do you have the SGH-T999 model? If so, you need to look for a ROM that works with your Phone.

which recovery to use????????

thanxs a lot for this tutorial. as i've been reading a lot about rooting my s3, i'm a bit confused that which rooting method should i use

1. CF root with CWM recovery

2. tool kit for rooting by msskip with CWM touch recovery

3.or any other method...

seems rooting is not a problem but there are issues with taking and rstoring nandroid back ups with various CWM mods.....

kindly advise/help

[Galaxy S III General] ItayH:
thanks alot man, really good guide
[Galaxy S III General] eKulzz:
Kies didn't have a jellybean update for me and i got sick of waiting so I rooted it and it worked perfect thanks :)

I heard that I should never update with kies now it's rooted so I uninstalled it, but will the software update in settings on my phone be ok? I'm wondering if I should just wait for jellybean to be officially released or get the one from sammobile?
[Galaxy S III General] Stormlister:
You can still update with KIES, but why would you want to. The reason why people say not to have KIES while rooted is because KIES interferes with root software operations like ODIN. However, if you kill all the KIES services its wont interfere. I don't use KIES anyhow. Also remember that Cyanogenmod 10 will be released soon, this is a great distro and KIES wont work with this.
[Galaxy S III General] asukaj:
Just one more stupid question and than im done-i can flash any rom to my rooted s3 and i can pick between any of the listed in the thread with all roms-why are they than sorted in JB (AOSP,AOKP,MIUI) and ICS (AOSP,AOKP,MIUI) is this that u have to use jb rom if u have jb already on s3?

And plz in plain words difference between aosp and aokp type of roms.

Thanks in advance.

They are categorized because they are based on different versions of Android/firmwares.

AOSP: Android Open Source Project..clean vanilla android - Source Tree maintained by Google. CM10 is based on this.

AOKP: Android Open Kang Project...it is based on CM10 with some UI modifications

Stock: ROMs which are based on Samsung Stock Firmwares

MIUI: An alternative OS based on Android..built originally in China...most MIUI roms are either port of CM10 or Stock Sammy ROMs

ICS: Ice Cream Sandwich Android Version 4.0X

Jelly Bean: Android Version 4.1X

These are categorized so that you can choose from what you want...they are not about what you have on your phone currently...

I went and roooted the device thanks for the info and tutorial this is great.i would jut like to ask since would like to know that it is reversible easily- in the tutorial for unrooting u gave advice to go dl an original firmware from Sammobile webpage...

I searched for mine and the numbers are different-seem to cant find mine firmware.

Mine is first pic and i get the results in second pic...

Is that the same and can i use firmware from sammmobile that has end BLH3 and i have BLH1?

Sent from my nokia 3310
[Galaxy S III General] zoot1:
BLh3 and blh1 are different firmware versions..

Best way forward is to search for a firmware for your region..and download whichever is the latest..

Lh3 in your case
[Galaxy S III General] asukaj:
Ok,that means that i dont have newest update in my region?

But when i press check for updates on my wifi it shows no updates available?

One more question-i copy whole titanium folder to my pc to backup that backup to pc?

Sent from my nokia 3310
[Galaxy S III General] zoot1:
Don't worry about the OTA, just download the firmware and flash using Odin.

Just to be on the safer side, move the TB folder to your external SD card..I think that should be enough..while restoring..click on preferences>change backup location>search whole device for backups..then restore...
[Galaxy S III General] asukaj:
ok i did that copied to external and to my pc just to be safe..

so now when i flash my rom i can just via TB restore all apps and settings and my contacts i will restore via gmail account that i set up to sync.. and what about pics and videos are they deleted during the flashing of new rom?
[Galaxy S III General] zoot1:
Nothing is deleted when you are flashing a new ROM..sometimes when flashing using Odin you get stuck in boot loops ..then you may have to do a factory reset which wipes all the data on the internal sdcard..nothing is touched on your extsdcard...so anything in there is safe...

Sync all your videos and pics to your dropbox account to be on the safer side..
[Galaxy S III General] asukaj:
So factory reset wipes everythobg in internal sd, that means i have to rwstore factory rom(the procedure of unrooting)? or start from the begining with flashing custom rom..

Thansk for patience just wanna wrap my head around the whole details so that i know how to get back if i screw up..

If you want OTA..stay on Stock..don't flash anything from here..if your root/modify you system = No OTA

So wait for it to be released in your country..

Ok but i read on this forum already that if you only root u could still get OTA?

ok thx!
[Galaxy S III General] asukaj:
Small digression

"I can confirm above works perfectly, I have flashed HD Revolution ROM successfully using above method.

BUT PLEASE BE WARNED: HD Revolution recommends using Super Wipe, the instructions are unclear, it says you must copy it to the your sd card, if you do this and copy it to your internal sd card all will be wiped including your images, I think you are screwed then. Rather copy them to your EXTERNAL SD card and choose zip from EXTERNAL SD card"

-Ok guys first thank for all the help i got here from all of you while i was lin my learning curve...

i rooted the phone and installed AndroidRevolution HD and it is great, it is quick fast smooth battery friendl everything!!

I used the method for instaling ARHD from mike1986 that he suggested.

That means concerning the above sentence i copied Superwipe to internal storage and my ROM to external card.

I first started SUperwipe that cleaned all form internal storage and then started ROM installation from CWM from external and it all went fine and easy!

I think you're a little lost. This thread/forum is for the SGSIII not for the Sony Xperia P please go to the xperia thread and post this problem there.
[Galaxy S III General] Striatum_bdr:
I think it's a bit confusing because:

- you use cwm and clockworkmod as if it was two different things. They are the same.

- you're using to root a tool that is no more maintained for months.

I'm not sure which version of cwm you are using. You should be clear on the fact that there are two different types of recovery j

- cwm based (official 6.0.3.1 one and the EXTRAORDINARY Philz's one )

- twrp 2.5.0.0

All other versions are outdated and dangerous to use.

I've never been a great fan of Rom manager. I prefer reboot in recovery and deciding by myself what to do.

Mobile Odin is the best choice if you only have root and no custom recovery to flash one. I even use it to update my recovery, kernel. The free version is enough.

You should mention the S3 toolkit in original dev section, that is maintained, and is the best in my opinion to root and flash recovery and many other things.
