Yup! Start off with CWM Recovery flash, when that's done, transfer file to device (internal sd card) and from the ROGERS stock rom you can do the apply update from zip option in CWM.

hey i downloaded all the files..

first i opened odin i couldn't find cwm in the pda. so i downloaded it again and added .tar at the end of the file name so it is now visible in pda odin

i flashed it succesfully however when i go to recovery mode it goes to android system recovery ?? not cwm recovery

iam i doing something wrong
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Hmm...try ROM Manager free from the Play Store. If not just google around how to install CWM, installed it a while ago so I forgot sorry. But ROM Manager should work.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] totti107:
should i take off auto reboot then take out battery... i remember doing this when i rooted the phone . i think...

oh and for rom manager i cannot find my phone on the list , there isn't any galaxy s3 on it weird?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Hmm...weird. Guess it doesn't support the extra-super-duper-phone yet! Haha!

If you get the SGS3 All-in-one toolkit from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1703488 , you can install CWM from it just make sure you have drivers installed, it can help you with that if you don't have them, and enable USB Debugging.

If that doesn't work, which I think it should, try to use this link a bit. Download the version they have it should be pretty recent.

with this video... but i had to remove the battery and take auto reset off for it not to overwrite cwm recovery
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Oh so now you have CWM? Well as long as you have it, you'll only need it once or twice to erase all data, then install CM and GApps.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] totti107:
Ill try it with the cwm from the superuser one but I remember doing that it said error 9 or something
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ily112:
Quick question, I flashed CWM recovery using the terminal, and I see it when I boot into recovery, but when I go to ROM Manager to flash CM10, it says to flash CWM Recovery, and won't let me access the list. I would've flashed CWM from ROM Manager, but the S3 wasn't on the list of devices. Is there anyway to get around this?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Hi there!

Basically you must first but the CWM ZIP file on your internal sdcard then boot into CWM, from there go to install zip file or something like that, then select from SD Card, find the zip, you're done!

Don't forget to do a factory reset through CWM before the CM10 update and maybe after too.

Let me how it goes,

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Boss Daddy:
Never liked CWM, I personally love TWRP as a recovery. Go to the app store and download GooManager.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ily112:
But don't I already have CWM? Or is CWM and CWM Recovery two different things? Where would I get the CWM .zip for my rogers phone? I backed up my phone from recovery mode, does that mean I backed up my current ROM (stock rooted ROM)? And I backed up a few apps using Titanium Backup, if I use factory reset, would all my backups get erased? Thanks for your help!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Hi,

CWM = CWM Recovery; same thing just shorter :P .

The ZIP file for your rogers phone can be found here: http://get.cm/?device=d2att

Click the one at the top of the list as it is the newest.

Don't worry about the ROM because worst case scenario if you want to downgrade to stock, you can re-download it online and re-root.

For the apps, it depends where your backups are, usually, in TitBak, the backups are stored in /sdcard/TitaniumBackup which will be safe as formatting to factory settings and data partition in CWM doesn't format the internal or external SD Card. But I am not responsable if it does so be careful!

Also, I just got a notification to update SuperUser, which takes me to the Playstore, but on I remember seeing not to update SuperUser on the thread where I was told how to root my phone. So do I update it or not?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
You can update it, I don't see what could go wrong because an update will only help fix things if there were bugs you had.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ily112:
Okay, thanks! I'm going to use this <http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1587607> guide to flash the cm ROM. But say afterwords, I want to unroot and remove the 'Modified' status of my phone, and return back to the stock ROM like nothing happened, and remove the flash counter. How would I do that?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
That would be with Odin you would redownload the Stock ROM for Rogers and then flash it. To reset counter, you can download the app TriangleAway for free from the Play Store and with root, it resets the counter. Then you can unroot.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ily112:
Okay thanks! I just flashed CM10 and GApps, and it seems to work. A few problems though. I logged into my Google account, but the Calenders app doesn't grab the calendar info? It says its connected to my account. Also, when I try to use Google Now, it immediately closes and says "Unfortunately, Google Search has stopped."

I also lost all my app data, but before I flashed I used Titanium Backup to backup the apps I wanted, but Titanium Backup wasn't there after the flash, so I installed it from the Play Store, but it's saying it doesn't have root access? I then go to SuperSU, and it immediately asks me if I want to update, but I've heard of people messing up their phones after updating through the app, so I press no, and it closes the app.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] acme anvil:
Did you flash the most current JB gapps?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ily112:
I flashed gapps-jb.1.zip

EDIT: I went back to the path where it auto downloaded the GApps .zip, and went to the site <http://tom.gascoigne.me/jellybean/>, and there seems to be another version, gapps-jb.2.zip. How would I overwrite the already existing gapps file? Just put this zip into my phone, go into recovery, and flash it? Or do I need to wipe everything again and flash cm10 nightly and the gapps zip?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Download the GoogleApps from here for CM10, I used mirror 2 but they are all the same. http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Latest_Version/Google_Apps

Glad to know it worked though! CM10 for all! haha
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ily112:
Thanks! That fixed it! Now I just have one more problem, then I'll be good to go. I downloaded Titanium Backup from the Play Store again, to access the apps that I backed up previously, but when I open it, it says it doesn't have root permission? I made sure I selected fix permissions in recovery when I was flashing CM10, but Titanium Backup isn't getting the permissions. Is this a common problem?

Thanks for all your help though, I really appreciate it!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Good to know that helped! Best is to always get those GApps from CM themselves as it'll be the latest.

Do you have superuser of SuperSU installed? What if you run it and then make it re-download the su binaries and reinstall them. I know in superuser you can do that, not sure about SuperSU. Then reboot, and try TitBak again.

Glad I can help! And helping me get to my 100 post mark with 13 thanks so far!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ily112:
I have SuperSU installed. When I open it, it prompts me to update binaries. When I do, it says installation failed. I've tried multiple times, to no avail.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Try installing superuser from the play store and try to install its binaries, should fix the problem, also uninstall supersu and use superuser instead.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ily112:

Trying to use CM10 on Rogers SGS3

I am trying to put CM10 on a Rogers SGS3. If I have it right, the file to use is d2att but CWM gives me a status 7 aborted message when I try to install that file.

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") etc . . .

Same whether I use the stable version or the nightly. For all my trouble, when the phone boots now it goes back to the original samsung bloatware version without the changes I have made to get rid of what I can and add stuff. Is cm-10.0.0-d2att.zip the right file to use on a Rogers SGHI747 phone?

Stuck!

---------- Post added at 12:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:24 AM ----------

The correct phone model I am working with is SGH-I747M , baseband version I747MVLLH1. I got this phone several months ago when my Nexus S got wet and died. I had enjoyed JB on it for several months before that and miss it on the Samsung and figure if I leave it to Rogers, it will be months yet.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Felchy:
The exact same thing happened to me last week. It was my first time flashing a custom ROM.

You need to update CWM to a new version. I used the instructions found here: http://andr0idtech.blogspot.ca/2012/09/how-to-install-latest-clockworkmod.html

After updating to CWM version 5.8.4.5, CM10 flashed properly.

Upgrading CWM did it for me. I had actually downloaded a more up to date version, but hadn't flashed it so the version I was actually running was out of date. Working like a charm now, it is like getting a sliver out to get rid of the bloatware Samsung had on the phone and the phone is not very buttery! Well done Cyanogenmod, thanks!

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00bm4n:
I have a problem with my p1000.

I have stock android 2.2 and i have wanted to upgrade to 2.3 so I connected it to Kies via usb cable and hit "update firmware". It said "downloading firmware" on the computer and when it finished it said "uploading firmware to phone". On the phone yellow message appeared that I "should not turn off the target". But the uploading was stuck at 0%. I have been waiting for few hours, but there wasn't any progress. So I turned it off by pressing power button. The phone seems to be fine (it boots up, and is fully working), but when it goes to sleep mode and turn off screen it reboots. And sometimes it reboots randomly.

Also, i cannot connect with kies anymore. It keeps saying "connecting" and never connect.

What i should do? Should I use odin to flash other firmware?

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ess.boyer:
My guess would be that either Net 10 is an approved subsidiary of AT&T and thus allowed to use the AT&T network, or, it's been carrier unlocked, so it can be used on any carrier in the GSM bands.

I reverted from the dual poot through internal partitions.

The dualboot was set up via this topic.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1275859

After that I ran the revert dual boot zip and then used the customer partition setup from this thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1094371

Suddenly, I could only boot to cwm. No matter what boot option I would choose, cwm would load. It would let me flash roms but I could not boot into them. I eventually got around this by re-installing cwm using rom manager from a rom running on an sd card.

That created a new problem. Every time I tried to boot, it would not mount emmc. I tried installing the rom MiRaGe. This had the strange effect of mounting my sd card as emmc and my internal drive as my sdcard

I found this guide and tried to restore my partitions back to original

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=25354258#post25354258

I am using the cwm from that thread as well. I am back to booting into a black screen no matter what rom I use.

Are there any suggestions on what I can do next?
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
Sounds like you have your partitions pretty messed up. Go to my partition repair thread linked in my signature and follow the guidance there, including doing the partition 2 repair. Do not forget to format the partitions immediately after the repair zip is run.

That swapping of emmc media and sdcard is a setting inside of CM7. It is intended for users who have no SD and want to use emmc media as sdcard.
[Nook Color General] JackieBrown:
Thank you for your help.

Here are the steps as I read it and the order in which I did it

1) Flash sd card with CWM-5.5.0.4-bootable_SD.zip

2) Copy NookColor-emmc-format-partitions-5-6-7-8.zip, NookColor-emmc-repair-partition-2.zip, and NookColor-emmc-repair-partitions-1-4-5-6-7-8.zip, and update-encore-cwm.5.5.0.4-emmc-racks.zip.

3) Boot into cwm from sd card

4) install zip "NookColor-emmc-repair-partitions-1-4-5-6-7-8.zip"

5) reboot system

6) install zip "Copy NookColor-emmc-format-partitions-5-6-7-8.zip"

7) reboot system

8) install "NookColor-emmc-repair-partition-2.zip" (This does report success)

9) reboot system

10) install "update-encore-cwm.5.5.0.4-emmc-racks.zip"

11) reboot into cwm
[Nook Color General] JackieBrown:
Now that I am boot into cmw (I took out the sd card before boot to make sure it installed properly,) I follow these steps

1) Install rom and gapps (encore_CM72-MiRaGe-09302012.zip) It reports sucess

2) Boot into black screen.

Can you tell me if I am missing a step or if I am doing one of the previous steps incorrect?

****edit - I seem to be able to install cm9.

I'll report back after testing it out.

My question is regardless of if you have unlimited data or not (i do have unlimited) but your contract says you are not allowed to tetther/wifihotspot your internet to a computer - is there a way for your network operator to actually check that - and if yes is there a way to block that ?

Thx in advance.
[HTC One X] maniacaus:
It may be possible to track how you are using your data if you have the carriers software onboard but i think if you are running a custom / international stock rom there is no way to monitor anything other than the total usage.

Thats the thing - I`m usually doing 50-70GB a month from my phone alone - and nothing happens - so I`m thinking if i do it via my pc that will nto make any difference. And I`m not running their own rom so it should be fine ;)
[HTC One X] Vcek:
if they do an IP check then yes without any roms or anything they can find out how many sub ip's are using the internet and they will block you off, but using a proxified tether (like OrBot) will make it seem as all connections from one IP.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Horatiuf4:
Hi,

I own Gnex which shipped with yakjuxw firmware, but after following a guide here on xda I unlocked the bootloader and flashed stock (yakju) Android 4.0.4 (the newest version for which Google provided factory images at that time). I soon received the 4.1.1 ota update and everything went smoothly.

Today I was charging my phone while it was off, but needed to start it to search something. It was charged at 43% when i booted, and after a few seconds I received the 4.1.2 update notification. I accepted and there was a countdown to restart and then the screen went dark. It was still plugged in and I let it stay like that for a couple of minutes. Still nothing happened so I unplugged it and tried to manually restart it. I panicked for a few minutes as nothing seemed to work. I finally pulled out the battery, after which I was able to start it. It's still showing 4.1.1 and the update notification disappeared.

Should I reset Google frameworks or should I let it be for a couple of days?

Thanks,

Horatiuf4

You should be fine to continue using it like normal, if you're particularly worried just flash the factory firmware for your particular galaxy from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images like normal.

I cleared the services framework data and the notification reappeared, and the update went without a hitch.

I need your help to fix one big issue of network on CM10, and hope you could do something. I want to extract a baseband from a ROM using baseband 1035.23_20110707, but I don't know which file I should take, and convert to .fls to flash after.

Thanks in advance !
[LG Optimus Black] xonar_:
Baseband isn't in a flashable .zip file it's only flashed using SFT. If network isn't working then it's probably a problem in the RIL. Which is /lib/lge-ril.so (theres many other files also related to networking but most problems come from having incorrect RIL.)

Sent from my LG-P970
[LG Optimus Black] Maneth:
Exactly, my RIL and my baseband were not matched, so this is why I would flash new baseband, because I can change my RIL with GetRil. So there is no file corresponding to the baseband in a ROM .zip ?

None whats so ever. Your baseband is the one from when last you did full flash.

ADW is the only one that functions correctly on a non-rooted device. Don't have a reason why though, but apparently Amazon wanted to lock out alternative launchers.

If you root, you can put the launcher apk in system/app, install and can set the home button defaults. I personally got go launcher ex to function, though I believe others have managed to get other launchers to work.

Otherwise non-rooted, ADW will function but you can't change the defaults.
