Hi everyone,

Was wondering if someone could please make a flash able Tar for Odin of this Rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2148306 LiquidSmooth 2.9 For the Sprint G S3 to help out those with the new G S3. I would attempt it myself, but i don't have a PC to try. I would ask for help in the appropriate thread but my account is not good enough yet? Thanx in advance.

I'm not tired of stock I like using stock ROMs too many bugs in custom ROMs I just don't like 4.1.2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tazfanatic:
Have you tried TPR (The Peoples Rom), MOAR (Mother Of All Roms), DanDroid (TW themed to CM)?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] churchey420:
Yeah I actually liked this msg & chubbz ROM it was stock but had s4 look to it.

Sorry for the delay but I've been extra busy with work. The file you posted did not do the trick. However I did upgrade his recovery from version 2.3 something to the most current version 2.6.0.1. After I updated the recovery, I did flash the file you uploaded and I was able to successfully flash CM 10.2 plus GAPPS. Just thought I would let you know what worked. Thanks for you help.

Its pretty bad that the s2 is on the same as the s3 both only having 4.1.2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] billard412:
You may have the same Android version but remember you have additional features. There's no multi window on the s2. And you want 4.3 so bad? Cyanogenmod is only a few clicks away

Multi window isn't really useful to me at all lol and Im on the new illusion 4.3 ROM its nice lol

Ok so I have WIND sght999v and am planning to flash a pre-rooted 4.04 ics BUT i noticed the modem isnt that good as i am having poor signal. Can I flash a JB modem?

Second Q, If it does not turn out well, can i flash again the 4.04 and will i have the original 4.04 MODEM?

Lastly, can someone please give me advice how to install a modem. I am currently running pre-rooted 4.1.2 but whenever i have data enabled i get SIM CARD REMOVAL error, however when i go back to ICS i do not get this error.( i have tried sim card changes, flashes etc.) so looking to put on ICS with JB modem.

ANy help is appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tazfanatic:
There is very little benefit to adding a version of the OS that is not made for this phone. You have had enough problems getting to where you are by trying to use 4.3 that is having all kinds of issues on this phone never mind the phone that it is meant for. I posted a link a few back about modem issues with 4.3. Development is not something that happens over night look how long it takes MS to release a new OS. Be patient 4.1.2 is pretty solid and stable with lots of toys. I was a big fan of CM on my old Epic. Not so much on this phone it causes me random issues that I just don't want to deal with anymore and have started to like TW. I am glad that you finally found a ROM that works for you that you like but be patient when it comes to updates.

Does anyone know what months its expected I been waiting and "trying" to keep up with it but everything I read is different and really gives little info about when to expect the next update for the s3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
No, no one knows not even Sprint. If anyone knew the information would have been here already. Some say November others say after... There's no way of knowing, but when leaks start coming out then the release isn't far behind. To continue asking here and in other threads gets repetitive...

Please add note to FAQ

Would you do me (& other newfound owners of the L710) a favor, & in big letters on one of the first few posts let everyone know, "If you've recently received a NEW phone, please be aware that AOSP-based ROMs WILL NOT BOOT--yet. When there's a fix, I'll update here with a link." I think in the post listing the ROMs, under AOSP would be the most helpful...I've been going NUTS trying to find a fix: googling & pouring over xda for hours; after many various searches through specific ROM & Kernel threads, I finally thought to search the noob FAQ thread. I'd double checked md5s of all my downloads, wiped/rebooted 3x, flashed LiquidSmooth, gapps, KT747, reboot, dirty flash LiquidSmooth again...no dice.

Anyway, I think you'd keep new owners from reaching for the nearest shotgun by adding a note under your AOSP ROMs post. Thanks Noles!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] aquariex24:
If a mod or theme says "AOSP/Touchwiz (Jellybean & ICS)" in the title does that mean I can use it for the LJ7 update from Sprint or do I have to install a custom ROM that is built from the LJ7 release but not actually that release?

Also, if I install a custom ROM will I lose all Touchwiz features like the water ripple lockscreen and being able to open the camera from the lockscreen by touching it and turning my phone horizontally? I guess what I'm getting at is what is the point of a ROM based off of LJ7 if you can't use Touchwiz features anyway (I see a lot of LJ7-based ROMs with Touchwiz features removed) compared to a ROM that's not based off LJ7 but instead is built from the stock Android ROM?

Noob Question

Hey guys,

Coming over from the Evo, I have a new SGIII in the box, what steps would you take to get rooted?

I see 3 different ways, which do you think is the easiest?

Should I take to the OTA update before rooting? Or root and then flash Jb?

Thanks

Sorry for the stupid questions.

Mine was up to date when I picked it up the other night. Was on the latest 4.0.4. So I followed QBKing's tutorial in the Development section. Doesn't get easier than his. He's got videos also. I'm a noob all over again, cause this is my first Sammy device. So make sure u DL and install Odin and the drivers on your PC. Then the file s that he links. It's extremely simple. But just read around if it doesn't make sense at first. Or u can ask here or even PM me:D

Have fun!

You can wipe in recovery but I believe that once u start the install it will wipe for you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] doroyce05:
Will this be considered a clean flash?

This is what i do but im not sure if it is correct:

I wipe:

cache

devlic

data

factory

internal

I try to wipe everything except external device. I just doneknow if there is anything else I can wipe. I want to wipe everything since imgetting a screen shake when it is landscape.

True but he was talking about a certain rom so I answered him that way since I'm running the same rom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EliteForceJac:
Not to change subjects, but since i'm extremely new to rooting(And everything that comes with it) Here are my questions.

1. How can i get my phone to look like "Vanilla" Jellybean?

2. Besides Backing up data using titanium/NAND what other cool things can i do with my rooted phone?

3. What does "googleapps" mean when im looking at downloading ROMS?

Thanks for helping the "N00B" and making me hate my life less and less!:)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] epic4GEE:
1. Would be cm10 it's in the original development section, all the other roms in that section are basically twists or spinoffs of cm10

2. There's a lot of things you can do, for the most part you have the power to do whatever your capable of doing....hard to explain, but you learn as you go

3. The google apps package or "gapps" is all the basic google apps for a particular build of android usually a link or the package is contained in the op that you download your rom in and flash in recovery after you flash your rom.

I'm sure that wil bring up a million more questions, but hope it helps a little. Best thing to do is read all you can and use only software made for the sprint sgs3 and don't try anything that your confused about.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] m20120:
Just to add a bit to what the previous response had:

1. CM10 is what you want if you want plain Jelly Bean on this phone.

2. You can flash a custom ROM and use a custom recovery to do a nandroid backup without being rooted. You can also root any stock or custom ROM or you can run them without root. See this thread for many reasons to root.

3. CyanogenMod used to include all of the Google Apps (GMail, Market, Maps, etc) in the ROM until Google asked them to stop. That means that when you install a CM rom on your phone it will not have any Google specific content. You must install the Google Apps on top of the ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EliteForceJac:
Is there anywhere to get CM without it being nightly builds, or is it still unstable?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] m20120:
In addition to the Nightly builds of CM10 they also have a M (or Monthly) build. They say "The M-Series is our monthly release series. The devices we build M for are essentially stable, and ready to be your daily driver.".

You can find the M Builds here.

No need for the bump someone would of gotten to you. You do realize this is

SPRINT GS3

which doesn't have a sim card? Also I don't recognize that ROM name. SO I am strongly suspecting you are in the wrong forum which might explain your lack of a response. Now to answer your question ROMs usually do NOT change your modem that is a separate flash at least with SPRINT ROMS it is. There is a link to the SPRINT FAQ in my sig that mentions about modems and has links to modems to flash.

Question about rooting.

I have the Sprint S3. I want to root it. I have rooted before on my samsung moment. Just wondering where to start. I see the toolbox but not sure if that is the best way. Im seeing different ways to do it but I would like to know which is the best. I would like to a rom after rooting the phone. Im looking for direction in the best way to do this.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tazfanatic:
I have heard there are problems with I think it is wifi or data with using the toolbox. Google qbking galaxy s3 rooting should should come with the old and recommended methoded. There is also a link in my sig for his videos. As far as ROM's I highly recommend for you to try them ALL they are ALL fantastic. Some of the top hitters for TW is TPR (The Peoples Rom) MOAR(Mother of All Roms), DanDroid (TW base CM themed) then you have AOSP Roms like CM 10.* and Slim Bean. In my sig there is a link to the FAQ that has a list of ROMS for this device.

Dialing out problem

Hi guys,

I've read and solved other problems with the help of this forum, but I've become a little stuck at the moment. The problem I have is galaxy s 3 GT-I9300 on Movistar network Spain.

Phone originally Yoigo network locked. Paid for unlock codes and unlocked no problem.

Phone receives calls when data connected but will not dial when data connected. Turn of data and you can call every time. I downloaded the configuration settings from Movistar website & installed no probs. Tried Sim card in a Galaxy s2 and had no problems.

I will speak with Movistar after the weekend, just wondering if you have any ideas what I could try.

Any ideas welcome.Thanks

P.s No root and original movistar 4.1.2 software flashed before new sim installed.

There are a few threads with alternate carriers around. I know your post count is a little low but maybe PM the OP you might be able to get some help that way?

4.3 ROM SD Card Issue

I went from a MIUI4 Rom based on 4.1.2 to a number of 4.3 based ROMs to try them out and they all have an issue where after having the phone on for a few hours playing media off of the External SD fails. Upon reboot it works fine again (although if I try to reboot after the problem pops up it just hangs so I have to remove the battery). Then I tried SlimBean stable 4.2 and that had the same problem. Went back to the 4.1.2 MIUI and kept it for a couple days, had zero problems. I even did a fresh format (FAT32) of the SD Card. Any ideas? I made a thread but didn't find any answers. If I'm the only one having this issue then I don't know what to do.

Do I need to reset my flash counter?

I am the noobiest of the noobs. I searched the forums and found the guide on how to unroot my Sprint S3 and reset the flash counter with Triangle Away. i need to turn my S3 in to Sprint so I unrooted but did not check the flash counter before doing so. My question is this. I never flashed a custom rom. I simply rooted (using Odin) and then did nothing else. Is it true if I did not flash a custom rom, only rooted, that my flash counter will still be at 0? When I check the DEVICE STATUS under SETTINGS it reads NORMAL. Is that enough indication that the flash counter is at 0? If I do indeed need to reset the flash counter, is there a way to do so without root?

I am sorry for all the questions but the refund of my ETF ($250) depends on this. I don't want Sprint to see I tinkered with the device and decide I can't get the ETF refund they promised me. I did search the forums (i bookmarked the thread on how to unroot and reset the flash counter just in case). Thank you.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Notorious:
Your flash counter increases by 1 every time you Odin non stock files as in recoveries. You could always check and see what your flash counter is at in download mode. Just turn your phone off and hold volume up(might be down I always get them mixed up) +power+home down until you feel the vibration. If it does show 1 for your flash counter you must install triangle away then that will reset you back to 0 then you have to Odin back to stock firmware

My noob question..

I had a S3 with 4.1.1/LB7 rooted with sonic for 6 months or so. Long story short it got damaged and I I just got a replacement that has 4.1.2 with L710vpbmd/build JZ054K.

Tried to root and got errors in CWM that would not mount sd card internal/external or any other things such as EMMC etc...not allowing me to flash TeamEpic-Root-from-Recovery-v5. I read that there are modified recoveries that are needed but I can't find any threads with them. I tried to use odin to flash a twrp tar file thinking maybe that would work...nope. Even tried the CF auto root method...no root. Then I decided to downgrade firmwares to 4.1.1 with LB7 and it made the phone wonk out with processes failing left and right non stop. Found 4.1.2 and used Odin to flash back and now it is working again.

How can I get this booger rooted again so I can enjoy the phone the way it was meant to be enjoyed. I assume I am missing something through weak googling skills. While I found some posts of the issue about the recovery not being able to read files I got lost trying to understand the explanation in regards to it.
