I'm trying to install Small Korean over CM10 with v21e baseband and it gives me an error (dead android in CWM). Do I have to restore stock ROM first? I have already downloaded three times just in case the download was corrupt. CWM I'm using is 6.0.1.9 non-touch as installed by ROM Manager.

Edit: I also tried the "Korean boys" ROM and it couldn't install either. is this ROM incompatible with CWM v6.0.1.9?

downgrade to lower cwm version. It is a prblem from rom manager
[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
OK! This looks like a very promising ROM with smooth scrolling! Akura Speed V1 keenel is also very good! On the other hand, the choice of colors for the lockscreen and the bootanimation are horrible! The Promethius ROM has far better appearance!

Edit: I realized that the Acura kernel caused my phone to reboot everytime I tried to turn bluetooth on. Trying the Promethius ROM and Kernel now and bluetooth works again (Promethius ROM with Acura Kernel still had bluetooth problem).

Edit 2: I know now that i shouldn't flash the kernel before booting up the ROM and turning bluetooth on, so that's why I was having issues! I am now using Promethius ROM v1.5 with Acura Speed V1 kernel and no problem with BT!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] The_MamaBee:
I recently got my S3, and coming from the Vibrant, I love this. I was never able to run anything beyond Froyo on my Vibrant, because 911 capability was critical for me. I am still in awe of the fact that my phone is fast, works, and my GPS actually functions. Seriously. It works. Wow.

Okay, so I decided not to tinker with my new phone at all and just enjoy it stock for a bit. I can't even tell you how cool I think ICS is. I'm honestly not even jonesing for Jelly Bean yet because ICS is still so new and cool. But, there are a few things I'm noticing I can't do without root. I'm asking your opinions on if you think they're worthy of me risking my phone for. (DigitalMonk has declared that I'm on my own as far as tinkering with this phone. :p )

1. I miss Patrick Boos' Sleep Timer. It needs root to be able to shut Google Music completely off. I like to fall asleep to music. I can get my music to pause but not shut off. The phone is plugged in on my dresser, so it isn't draining my battery and my screen is off. Is this a big deal? Will it hurt anything so simply let it pause overnight?

2. I'd like to install Avast and have it do it's firewall. Because I am the Mom, I have our insurance and pharmacy apps on my phone to manage medications. Of course this is pretty sensitive health info that I need, but the rest of the world does not. We're leaving for Disney World next week and that's when my phone will be at greatest risk. This is probably my biggest reason for considering root.

I have read the information posted on how to get root access without tripping the counter. I, being a college educated human being feel capable of reading the instructions, but I'm a little worried about messing up. I understand the instructions as far as how to execute them, but there is still a lot about the inner-workings of my phone that are a huge mystery to me.

Are my reasons enough to go for it or should I look for others ways?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
As far as the root66 fw goes, its probably the safest way to root imo.

I link to it and posted step by step instructions in the firmware thread if it helps.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1949687

As for whether or not you should root, I personally have never seen reason not to. As long as you follow instructions and only flash what has been verified safe you should be fine.

I dont think leaving your music paused will harm anything. Not enough to worry about it anyway.

As far as security goes, rooting does open up a number of options for you, as you seem to already know.

I would say go for it. This phone is great unrooted but to me its 100 times better rooted.

If you have any questions about the process just ask.

Good luck with whichever route you take!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cobraboy85:
to quickly answer the question in the thread title.

there is absolutely no reason to not root your device. and it is perfectly safe if you follow instructions carefully.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cLogic:
hi there :)

first off.. there is no "risk" to rooting.. you are simply gaining superuser/administrator capability

all you are actually doing is changing the recovery image (menu) .. and then using this enhanced recovery menu to ADD the su binary and superuser.apk .. that's it .. takes 5 mins on the sgs3 :)

the "risk" is in installing kernels and roms, both of which overwrite your boot.img and /system and /data partitions .. and even then, IF you decide to go that far, simply use the recovery mode to create a nandroid backup (backs up entire phone) BEFORE install the rom/kernel and no worries.. simply restore from the backup if anything goes wrong :) but I digress .. ;)

IF you have a USA or CANADA sgs3, then this is the best guide, step by step, even video.. to use Odin to flash the clockworkmod recovery image.. and then boot into that new recovery to flash superSu.. read carefully, do it slow, do it right, you'll be rooted in 5 mins :)

galaxys3root.com/galaxy-s3-root/how-to-root-u-s-and-canada-galaxy-s3-sgh-t999sgh-i747sph-l710-fail-proofnoob-proof/

part 1 .. this is not your old clunky cassette recorder, hitting pause doesn't mean it's running but being held back by a physical button lol. .. pause simply stops the playback AND remembers the seek offset .. in fact if the app loses focus, or screens idles out, the app will sleep

I recommend Tune In .. best radio app .. has sleep ability and alarm, can even schedule recording in pro version :)

free version play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tunein.player

part two .. in My opinion, anti virus apps ARE the virus! lol

just use a pattern or pin or password lock and you will be fine.. don't rely on apps.. keep your phone in your pocket, not bag or purse etc .. don't take it out unless you are using it .. be smart, be safe. :)

I don't use anti virus garbage on phone nor pc .. and IF I went insane and actually installed one, I sure as hell would NOT allow it superuser access!!

that's My 3.2 cents ;) hope it helps!

cheers,

Steven

I recommend the appropriate PhilZ kernel for your rom. It can easily be flashed in recovery and grants you root rights. What's more it is brick safe (at least as safe as it get's).

I agree, the op should read a few hours before he flashes anything onto his phone. Flashing without knowledge is very dangerous.

Directly from HTC site: http://www.htc.com/www/help/android41faq/

[HTC Incredible S] Splux:
I don't want to break your dreams or anything, but it took HTC almost a year to deliver the ICS update... it is also over 18 months since our phone was released, so HTC don't have to bring us anymore updates.

And as you said, this device wasn't that populare. It got stuck between the Desire HD and the Desire S.

You do the math on this one, I might be too pessimistic to think clearly. And wasn't the ICS update from HTC really, really, sluggish?

If you want official JB, get a new phone... hoping for this phone to get another update from HTC is like trying to talk some sense into fanatics...
[HTC Incredible S] skinniezinho:
Yes ICS made the phone real real slow, like a symbian one.

Maybe HTC won't do an update for IncS but maybe they do..DHD was far more popular than the IncS and it didn't had the ICS Update.

This is good news for the Desire X, and that means, port to us =)

First of all, sense 4.1 isn't jellybean !!

Sense 4+ is jellybean. Anyways, I don't think we will ever get sense jellybean update from HTC.

But hopefully we will get a fully working jellybean built from source like cm10, ect...

To be exact there is cyan x already working great and has a few bugs but hell yea we can use it as a daily driver.

Project butter is working almost perfect (97%) on cyan x ROM. I can see a little lag from time to time but I am not complaining at all
[HTC Incredible S] Splux:
No offense... but... if my maths isn't all f*cked up, wouldn't "4+" include 4.1? Or have I missed something with how HTC have started to name their Sense-things?
[HTC Incredible S] nlooooo:
Well, they actually called a new Sense version 4+. Anyway, Sense version doesn't have anything in connection to Android version, or at least it's name. It's just a stupid coinsidence that one of the latest version of Android (4.1) has the same number as one of the latest Sense versions (4.1) and there are no dependensies between them.

Or HTC does that with purpose to play with our brains...

Now you're on to something.

You have a point we should ask HTC then :D

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sianspheric:
Hi guys,

I've got a Galaxy S3 via Rogers, rooted, running the rom Triune II, I haven't messed around with custom Kernals (tbh haven't figured that out really), I recently installed SetCPU to overclock my S3 for running graphic intensive/slow loading games like Asphalt 7, etc.

So far for that purpose it's been amazing, the games literally open twice as fast. I've setup SetCPU for a variety of CPU changes, ie. higher speeds for graphic intensive games, lower speed for screen off while charging (ie. overnight) and it seems to be working great.

My questions are:

Can "overclocking" damange my device? Ie. I know that obviously overclocking shreds through battery life, but is playing a game at the top speed available on SetCPU (1512 Mhz) bad over a prolonged period?

Also, am I not reaping the full benefits of over/underclocking having a custom kernal installed?

Also...nother totally n00b one, if the S3 is capable of reaching the "overclocked" max speed, why doesn't it in the stock ROM? I just don't quite get that....is it because the battery life would be terrible and people would blame Samsung for it?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] g2tegg:
Never had a issue overclocking. And I've overclocked every phone I've owned beside the iPhone.

As far as how much better it will make your phone it depends. Depends on the rom too. I've noticed better benchmark results yet not always better real world results.

I use it more for the ability to underclock, and overclock when necessary.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] _ND_:
a little off but do you know of a way to measure the temperature of the phone (when you overclock/or even normally) ?

My phone does heat up sometimes
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nikufellow:
For over/underclocking there must be support for it built in kernel ! So if stock kernel doesn't support it you cannot probably change frequencies without changing kernel on stock Rom !

Also read the kernel's documentation - stable frequencies will be listed there - jumping back and forth these frequencies won't cause any troubles apart from the obvious battery drainage depending on your settings
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Dankest:
Yes overclocking can damage your cpu from overheating, some even believe it may reduce the lifespan of you cpu.

If you are running 1512 max you are running stock mhz, that isn't overclocked. You cannot run a stock Sammy kernel and overclock it unless it's been recompile..to be overclocked.

I recommend ktoonsez kernel it can be overclocked to 2106mhz and underclocked to 96mhz. As well as undervolting support which is pretty much essential for overclocking because an undervolt will make your phone produce less heat by lowering the voltage your phone requires when running.

To answer your second question, yes you are not reaping any benefits without a custom kernel, this is evident.

To answer the last. The stock kernel is maxed at 1512 because that is the best mhz for the STOCK Sammy kernel performance and battery wise. Also its possible that overheating happened when they set the max at higher mhz during their tests.

Some good general knowledge if you decide to overclock, would be learning how to and what undervolting does for your phone. You can read up on that here:

Sorry that kernal thread is a bit confusing.

Does that Kernal only exist for the stock carrier ROM and CM?

I'm using Triune II, if the kernal doesn't exist for that ROM then I take it I have to change ROM's?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] FatMandroid:
No. Triune is a TW based ROM. Therefore, you need to download KToonsez TW kernel. Keep in mind there is a ICS TW kernel, and then there is a JB TW kernel.

There are other kernels out there. Faux123 has a good one. It is capable of OC to 1.8Ghz, I believe.

[HTC One X] dyslecix:
Hi, I recently flashed a jellybean in Rom on my HTC one x and the rotation stopped working. So then I decided to return to factory settings with an ruu. So I did that and it was functioning again. So I reinstalled jb still worked.I then decided to try the 4.2 camera on my one x and it stoped working again, I then tried the ruu but this time it did not work. Next day I go home from class decide to unlock and relock the bootloader and it worked again, I then tried to install a in Rom ( once again) but this time it did not work. So I tried the ruu again, didn't work, tried unlock and relock bootloader, factory reset, wipe cache, everything and yes screen rotation is on. I alsotried the app android sensor and it showed my accelerometer/gyro not working. Can someone explain how to fix because its hard for me to believe that its hardware since it happens after I install a Rom or flash something. Please help.
[HTC One X] matt95:
take a look right here, contact shinigamikris he solved this problem
[HTC One X] miHah:
That can happen from time to time with gyros. Even if you get it to work with the right RUU, then you reset the device, it might stop functioning again. I'd say your motherboard needs to be replaced. You can always try with different ROMs and stuff but my thought: your HW is problematic :(
[HTC One X] matt95:
don't think so, every person who encountered errors like this were on cm10 and its kernel ncx, theres should be something wrong with those things... or people don't flash it correctly
[HTC One X] shithead:
I have this problem as well, but I'm using ARHD rom, right now.

Although I also think it's more a hardware fault, I'm not really 100% sure about it.

Sometimes a new Rom flash or a reset can fix it.

But after a few reboot it gets stuck again :-/

So confused about this problem too

Although, my phone is unlocked now and got Hboot 1.33. I'm gonna wait till the official RUU is out and reset my phone fully (with locked bootloaders) before sending it to HTC for repair.

Maybe you should do that too
[HTC One X] shinigamikris:
I had this problem too. It was fixed for a while after I flashed stock rug but then I clashed another recovery and wham they got knocked out again. Then I installed viper, cm 9 still not working. Installed latest paranoid android 2.53 and they are working again oh and I have latest twrp recovery installed. I really can't say if it is hardware or software. Maybe a mixture of both. I dunno. Only just flashes pa this morning but I have rebooted and they still work. Usually it will get knocked out if I reboot so I'll see what they are doing after a week or so. I'll probably keep pa on here until my official j b OTa is released. I think it did have something to do with either that ncx kernel or a recovery I tried. As that what knocked them out each time. Good luck in fixing it as different people gave had different things that fix the problem. For me it was reverting back to stock ruu. It was 4.03. 1.29..... something. But it also was fixed when I flashed latest paranoid android. Just a fee things to try....

Edit - sorry for the spelling mistakes....:confused:
