I'll be kind

Don't whine

Describe with words, back up with a link. I don't want to have to click three things to figure out what you did

You shouldn't be flashing anything without backing up

You can transfer using adb to your phone. You do have it and Heimdall already installed, right?

"I tried to flash something before that set it into a bootloop" isn't terribly helpful. What ROM are you on now?

Without root, you're not going to be able to remount /system to change anything

Did you read, in big letters, in the post you linked, right in the first paragraph, "This [ROM] targeted towards people that need to go from ICS to stock"

Edit -- Anyone who posts not three, but in six threads on the same problem is beyond me.

Edit -- Copying the search request, http://xdaforums.com/search.php?do=finduser&u=4495723, provides the desired search results, rather than copying the URL from the search results.

This is your third thread on the same issue!

sent from me
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] xakuvo:
you get a big THANKS!

six threads on one issues is desperation, why not just lead the man by the hand? less clutter on your forums

first you need to understand that odin and heimdall use different drivers, odin uses default drivers, heimdall uses open source drivers. EX:

if you have heimdall drivers installed on the USB port you connected your phone to and you're trying to flash w/ odin, it will fail to communicate w/ the phone.

a great suggestion made, was use two different ports, one for heimdall, one for odin, so that a driver switch is not necessary. remember to use your motherboard usb ports, and not from a usb extension.

post #4, by me, goes over my PERSONAL flashing procedure, i hope it helps

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1669364

may i also suggest AntonX's Barebone KJ6, it also comes w/ his kernel, which is 2.3.6 - rooted, UV/OC, voodoo sound, BLN(google the acronyms)to flash this as is, you need to have rooted CWM. May i suggest gremlin remover first? ^first link

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1828171

blastoffv2 is a great kernel, i edited my wifi file w/ script manager(google play), which requires root to edit, you must also change the permissions on the folder that contains the file before editing. edit the file, save it, and then return the folder permission settings to default manually.(long press folder in your-choice-root-file-manager, properties, change permissions)

Because the information has already been provided in the other five threads, if you had read them. He already has been led by the hand. You made suggestions without knowing what had already been suggested, potentially counter to a path he might have successfully been on. More clutter in the threads.

Please let this thread die and direct any responses to one of the previous five threads.

Just for future reference jeff. XDA won't let you link to search results. I'm assuming that's what your "six threads" link was too. This is a new record for sure. I wish the OP luck in fixing this cause if you gotta ask that many times luck is what you'll need.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] d0g:
I recently (12 days ago) upgraded to the Evo LTE (from Evo OG) and it's great.

BUT, now I've discovered this and dozens of other threads in forums all over the web about how the Evo has a lame radio, especially with regard to finding & holding an LTE connection.

I don't have LTE in LA yet ... supposed to arrive by end of year ... so I have no way of testing.

These complaints have scared me; I'm thinking to exchange it for a Galaxy S3 while I still can, ie, tomorrow.

1. Has anyone in an LTE market swapped and noticed better LTE with the S3?

2. I'm not familiar with the Galaxy ROM scene at all ...

a. are there stable versions of AOSP/CM? Do they have all the camera features like burst, still during video, etc? My favorite ROM has always been CM.

b. MIUI?

c. Is there a "stock" ROM which strips away all the "annoying" TouchWiz elements? (I particularly hate that slippy power control thing.)

d. What's the cleanest & stablest (is that a word?) ROM going for GS3?

I do notice while sniffing around this forum that there are far fewer ROMs here than in the Evo section ...

Thanks for any input!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] epic4GEE:
I haven't done much Rom hopping yet, so I won't comment on roms other than I'm happy with freegs3.

Wish you had more time to confirm the evos radio performance. I've been watching sprints build out of lte with the sensorly app and L.A. is blowing up fast, most over the last week of so. On a side note and I'm not sure of this at all, but I'm guessing the evolte and U.S. sgs3 have the same lte radios as they share the same soc, maybe someone with more knowledge on that can confirm.

Edit; since your in cali you should have 30 days to make up your mind.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] d0g:

Can anyone confirm if this version uses more RAM? On my SGS III it is using 44MB, phone has been on for 25 hours.

But on my LG Thrill 4G, it is still on the older version (1.1.1.7628) and using 18MB for the past 16 hours.

I'm at 35mb after 12 hours but I noticed they put a lot more work into Swype connect so the app is only using about 20mb & the Swypeconnect part is at about 15mb.

If you enter in the download mode, re-upload a rom with 3 files
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saywhatt:
well, okay first of all.. i think your phone is ROOTED that's why you cannot receive any firmware updates and you cannot connect to Kies.

so what you need to do is to download a firmware over at sammobile.com and then unzip the file, you will then get a .tar file.. you then use odin. connect your phone while it is on download mode and check if odin recognizes your phone. in PDA, click on the .tar that you had from the extraction then click on start.

your flash via odin may be a result from an incomplete download.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HAXTREME:
On connecting your phone to KIES, does it install the phone drivers?

Also, ensure you're installing a firmware for your own device. ie. not installing i9100G firmware on an international i9100 /P/M/T. or vice versa.

Next make sure your phone has adequate charge before going into download mode. Even if its soft-bricked, it will still charge.

Also, connect your phone to a USB port directly on the computer. Not via a hub or a USB port on your keyboard or something.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adam Hui:
If u want to use Odin than uninstall kies is a must as its tsr program will interrupt Odin processes. U just need to download correct & match firmware from samsung-updates.com or sammobile.com, then repeat the flashing but just use Odin v1.85 as its most compatible w/ s2. Don't tick anything else from Odin before click start button except auto reboot, one packages & PDA section (browse ur firmware file). & Odin doesn't care if ur phone rooted or unrooted. It will does a full wipe if u flash a f/w by Odin, so rooted phone will lost its root.

Hi Guys,

I have a big problem to flash any rom to my I9001. Currently I have a CWM 5.0.5 and FeaMod 1.2. I get this error message:

installing update...

assert failed:getprp (ro.product.device") == "

e:error in /sdcard/RemIcs 1.3.2.zip

(status 7)

installation aborted.

Then I have read to edit and delete the following entry in the update-script to fixt it:

assert (getprop ("ro.product.device") == "ariesve" | | getprop ("ro.build.product") == "ariesve" | | getprop ("ro.product.board") ==

"Ariesve" | | getprop ("ro.product.device") == "GT-I9001" | | getprop ("ro.build.product") == "GT-I9001" | | getprop ("ro.product. Board ") ==

So I do this and prepair my file with his panelentry, I saw no differents but another error comes. That User he wrote this tipe, has uploaded this edited rom, I downloaded it and then....fantastic it works. Now he answert no longer. I need the exact explain to fix this with everyone rom. Then also other roms MIUIv4 or ENdroix has the same request in her updater script.

Thank you and I saw the other suggestions at xda ( other recovery tool like twrp) but I will know to fix this way.

If all you want is just the update zip, get the update support installer and run it. It'll create a new directory on your desktop that has the update zip and a couple other files. Copy the update zip to your sdcard-ext and go for it. Ignore the other files....they're for the HoB.
