Flash a different 4.3 tw kernel
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pyrorob:
some nice mods to the stock tw 4.3, good work, btw those having root issue, on first install selinux is still set to restricted which would break root (or at least interfere), what i did was flash the tmo unsecure tw 4.3 kernel then the dkp tw4.3 kernel and set ro.build.selinux and ro.config.tima to 0 in the build.prop, now it reads permissive in about device in settings and no issues. if it doesnt say that then you dont have full root.

Can you provide a link to a T999 kernel. I'm not sure why the kernel link will lead to kernels that don't work on this phone or rom.

I don't wanna update the bootloader and not be able to use aosp or aokp type roms.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 4Orr:
Yes, I had upgraded prior to installing the ROM. I found the installation and running of the ROM was flawless.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nirogu325:
I updated those and am able to use any ROM, be it Stock, AOSP or AOKP...

Let's be clear, the ONLY danger of updating to the 4.3 bootloader is that you can't go back to a minor than 4.3 bootloader or you'll brick. In that case you just delete any ODIN firmware that's not 4.3 off your computer (to avoid accidents) and you're safe. This DOES NOT mean you can't flash a JB or even an ICS ROM because you can. Same with AOSP, AOKP, heck, any ROM. It's just as before.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] gordies.swc:
Is there a flashable zip to update the bootloader? Also, after updating is there a need to re-root?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nirogu325:
There isn't for the moment, and that's to avoid bricking due to people not reading and more. If you want, you can do as I did:

0. Do a nandroid (yes, number zero because it's an essential/elemental step).

1. ODIN the 4.3 MJC firmware

2. After successful flashing ODIN your favorite custom Recovery (TWRP or CWM)

3. Restore your nandroid to go back where you were before.

4. Profit! Now you have the latest bootloader.

- remember not to flash any other firmware through ODIN that's not MJC (4.3) as I said in my previous post.

- the only modem (baseband) that'll work from now on is MJC since it's built for that newer bootloader.

- you can now flash any ROM. By "flash" I am referring through TWRP/CWM and not ODIN. The only thing I keep updating thru ODIN is TWRP cuz that only touches the Recovery.

After clean up etc. I was able to run this with out hangs / fcs ... However, the WiFi is broken. The toggle won't turn on and neither would hotspot work. Tried Darkside v1.1.zip as well as Kinetic_pulse.v1.3.zip., they hang at boot and the latter one displays the face image and goes no further... I just completed another clean install.

Tried both UVUEMJC and UVUEMJ4 modems (baseband) still no luck. What am I missing?

I'm also not getting torch to work. Anyone else?

UPDATE: I ended up using GravityBox instead of Wanam Xposed and was able to get the volume down to get the torch to work. Wanam's volume down wouldn't work no matter what I tried.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tester420:
^- That didn't work in my case. Thanks anyway!

However, this did work: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23212708291680810

I don't know why this didn't work before. So, I retract the previous message. Tried it with both UVUEMJC and UVUEMJ4 and WiFi is working!

---------- Post added at 10:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:23 PM ----------

Just another quick question (after searching)... The Wanam Xposed framework and module are great to tweak the ROM to our liking but, is it possible to have the settings permanent without the App/modules after making changes? I tried but the changes don't seem to stick.

Apart from kitchen > cooking own, there's got to be a way...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nirogu325:
Nope. The Xposed Framework needs the modules. Only other way is making manual changes yourself, be it in framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk and the like.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tester420:
Are you guys getting any random f/c on play store or other apps? I am noticing these once in a while. Perhaps, the 4.3 ROMs still have to "weather out" problems... This ROM seems to be stable enough, will test drive this for a while. I really hope and update comes for this that is more stable and has some good tweaks (center clock to begin with...) Thanks to OP for providing a good ROM!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Jamison904:
Clear your cache. Also for all the tweaks try gravity box (comes with the ROM.) Working on porting 3minit so until then I won't be hard coding those type of tweaks since 3minit has them all as well as gravity box. :cool:

They were moves. If you use a root explorer and check you 0 folder or legacy folder they should be there.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tester420:
Got it. Temporarily reverted back as I needed some numbers from call log.. Gravitybox changes (some) don't seem to work but I'll double check. wanam seems to work better, again, more testing is in order. I really miss the flashlight toggle. Will that also be part of 3minit u mentioned? Finally, call volumes seem to reset. A bit of nuisance to adjust all the time -maybe just me, will restore backup of ur rom and see what happens. During or prior to flashing, I ran into some imei troubles, using another s3 now and trying to fix the other. I am sure it during restoration/odin and not ur rom. Thanks for all your efforts!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pvaldeben:
Installed root explorer and found all titanium backups and photos under /data/media, now moving every thing to external SD Card.

ROM is for t999. I dunno how it effects the LTE s3 but I would guess you would have connectivity issues. The kernels are either att which is insecure or the stock T-Mobile which comes with it.

Same happened to me. Try this: install your nandroid backup, after reboot make sure is working ok. Install infamous 6.0 and the ATT insecure kernel.

Already restored my old ROM and flashed aospwiz. Pretty sexy ROM!! Best of both of both (aosp/touchwiz) worlds!! But the infamous ROM looked promising and I'm willing to give it another try!

as for your pics on internal SD, if you used Odin to flash the 4.3 firmware it wiped the internal SD card, i did the same thing and forgot about my pics there DOH!

Just an fyi for anyone having issues with WIFI and data on the stock kernal.. Try flashing the new bootloader and kernel first that is linked up in the s3rx thread here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2326763, After that do either (preferebly) a clean install or wipe dalvik and cache. Any of the roms that are released with the actual T-mobile kernal should work without having to flash the At&t kernal then.

PS. sorry to the dev or mods for linking to another roms thread, I know that it is disrespectful ect but its the only place that I found a link to the new bootloader and kernel package.Let me know and I will delete it.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MrRuckus:
I installed this over a deodexed stock rom, it wiped all on its own and I did it also before running the install. It rebooted, booted into the rom and I got to the welcome screen. Let it sit for about 15mins. Then hit English. It then said "please wait" with the standard green android line below. It sat that way for sometime (5mins+). the screen went to sleep. Brought it back on, and it says welcome again. Hit English, same thing. I thought maybe its because Im at work and my reception here is poor. Possibly it was trying to pull something over edge (had between 2-4 bars the whole time and no transferring of data per the bars). I rebooted the phone and now I cant get into the rom or recovery. Just the SGS3 boot screen and that's it.

Did I do something incorrect? Any suggestions?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Jamison904:
yes. You will need to flash a kernel for your device I think. Its been a while since I have had the S3.

Wipe in aroma and reinstall. Sounds like an incomplete flash.

I did not Odin to 4.3 when loading this Rom came from stockorama 4.1 and could not turn on WiFi, nodata loaded insecure kernel and updated modem and wifi / data working. I'm just curious what the reason is if not to technical to explain. Maybe put in op to Odin to 4.3 first
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nirogu325:
Simple: imagine the newer bootloader as a newer BIOS (well, that's what it is) for your smartphone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Diekrupt:
I foolishly did the same, was working on V6 with insecure kernel and decided to Odin 4.3, factory reset, goo installed twrp and then loaded V6 again. Hangs on Galaxy screen for me. Oh well back to Odin. I noticed Odin write didn't wipe data for some reason, I thought odin always wiped those partitions, data,davc,cache,system,boot ect?

Update: ran into the same issue as i have with safe boot on Verizon, must make sure not to restart in aroma but uncheck restart, exit to recovery and then restart. I was using twrp. After odin to 4.3 and exiting aroma properly everything is 100% working great. Only neg is no 5x5 tw launcher but I guess that's what nova is for.

Need your help

Hi guys/gals,

I see this being discussed some by reading back in the posts, but I'm still a little confused... perhaps you guys can help?

I want to give my old Tmo GS3 to my GF, but it has an AOKP ROM on it and she's used to stock. I want to flash Jamison's Infamous ROM on here, but I'm reading about new bootloaders... and I'm also pretty sure the AOSP modem won't work with his stock based ROM. In order to save myself a lot of headaches, I figured I'd ask you guys what you think the best method is to get my GF up and running today?

I was going to:

1) turn on the phone and try to get goo manager to flash the latest TWRP

2) clean wipe

3) flash latest Infamous

4) flash latest stock compatible modem (need a link?)

5) enjoy the fruits of my labor...

Will this work, or is it more complicated than that due to new bootloaders, etc? I'll get into ODIN if I have to, but was trying to avoid it...:cool:
