[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I don't believe you installed a custom recovery such as TWRP or Clockworkmod (CWM for short):

1) Download EZ Recovery from the Play Store and flash ClockWorkMod 6.0.1.0 or higher...

OR

download GooManager from the Play Store, press Menu, then select "install Open Recovery Script" to install the latest TWRP

2) Unlock your bootloader using EZ Recovery from the Play Store

3) Then manually boot into recovery by turning off your phone and simultaneously hold the power button, home button, and volume UP. Backups can be performed here. Roms/kernels can be flashed here.

I am intentionally ignoring Rom Manager because you should know how to do this as a general rule.

Because of what I said above, you can't fix permissions using Rom Manager. You do not flash any custom roms using Odin. What you need to know is:

1) Odin is meant mainly as a return to (fresh out of the box) stock. It only accepts ".tar" or ".tar.md5" files.

2) Custom recoveries (CWM or TWRP) are meant for flashing roms/kernels/mods and these files usually are ". zip" files.

You need to flash CM10 in recovery in a fashion that I posted at the top. That said, does your phone boot up? Because you've been doing both processes wrong and from my perspective it doesn't appear that you have flashed anything because it has failed.

Hi

purchased a XT912 ( still in shipping )

the guy tried to flash a GSM XT910 ROM on it thinking he can overcome the bad esn issue ( esn aint bad actually ;) ) and may use it with T Mobil or ATT :P

the phone boots up but then crashes with phone process crashing.

i am sure it can be repaired ( otherwise i have lost my money thinking myself a smarter ass ;) )

anyways i guess all it needs is flashing the stock verizon GB or ICS ROM

can anyone briefly point me to the process on how to do it all :P

1.. where to find the GB sbf or ICS sbf if available anywhere.

2.. how to put XT912 into fastboot mode and then flash the SBF

OR

3.. how to flash the VRZ_XT912_6.7.2-180_DHD-16_M4-31_1FF.xml.zip

ICS file

I bought this HDTV adapter on ebay that says it works for the Sprint Galaxy Note 2 which it does. Unfortunately it does not work on my Sprint Galaxy s3.

I thought they used the same adapter. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santhoshkcsk:
Hi Everyone,

I know there are a few thread around with the same purpose, but nothing helped me. I even did ping few members who claimed to have known the problem, to my bad, they are busy to reply me. So i thought i would start a new thread explaining my problem.

I got a new Galaxy GT I9300 Before 3months in Singapore, The shop is famous for selling smuggled phones, so i am not sure to which country mine belongs to. There was no network initially, so the shopkeeper offered his help, He gave the mobile to a nearby service centre and got it ready,

I am not sure what he did, but d phone had CWM and Super User. I already own a Galaxy S2 and i have done a lot of flashing Custom MOD's, So i wanted my Galaxy S3 to be original for a while. So i tried to restore by flashing a official firmware, To my surprise the phone didnt have any network in it after the ODIN flash. I tried an INDIAN firmware, then Singapore.

I tried CWM (which i am not a pro) but couldn get back the network. I went back to the service centre and he told some files are corrupted since i flashed the phone with official firmware.

He again flashed it, now the network works, voila ! I couldn figure out and he wouldn tel me. ****ing $40 !!! The phone had CWM and SuperUser installed in it again.

The phone had the following information after wat ever he did.

IMEI - 3531*********99 it is same in d board and in the phone information.

MODEL NUMBER - GTI9300

ANDROID VERSION - 4.0.4

BASEBAND VERSION - I9300DXLE9

KERNEL VERSION - 3.0.15-611327-USER SE INFRA@SEP -71 #1SMP PREEMPT TUE MAY 22 21:54:17KST 2012

BUILD NUMBER - IMM76D.I9300XXALEF

NETWORK - SINGTEL

SERVICE STATE - IN SERVICE

MOBILE NETWORK STATE - DISCONNECTED

MY PHONE NUMBER - UNKNOWN

ERI VERSION - N/A

IMEI SV - 01

SERIAL NUMBER - 000000000000

DEVICE STATUS - MODIFIED

Can anyone please infer on what the service guy had done. so that i can update my phone to JB. I am sick and bored of the same firmware for over 4 months and i wanna change it. But i dont want to get struck in the same issue. Please help and advance thanks !
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xclub_101:
I am afraid you had bad luck :(

1. You should NEVER pay for stuff that does not work (and is not with original firmware).

2. You should also read this - it is almost certainly the same story (in your case SN 00000000 should also give a strong clue things are not what they should):

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=34226179

3. Since whoever f***ed those things the first time on your phone did not make an efs image-backup you can never return to factory state!

4. You are basically stuck with a phone where you will have to apply a patched modem after each ROM upgrade.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeromemory:
when you say patched modem what do you mean.?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santhoshkcsk:
Patched modem ???

When u say patched modem, can u explain tat ? Is it possible to create one by ourself ?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xclub_101:
Well ...

A patched modem apparently is modem code that does not check all the stuff in the efs partition (for instance when SN is 00..00) - I am currently using the one posted by ariza somewhere around. Patching one might be quite complex and for the moment I did not have the time to research that. The only problem that I see is that certain providers are said to be using very unusual modem code (since they have unusual settings in their own network) - and in that case you need to use a patched version of that specific modem version - but so far I have not seen that happening in a very repeatable way in posts from european networks.

The other problem is that when you install any full ROM (for instance 4.1.2) that will overwrite your modem - so you will have to re-install the old patched modem (so far ariza_v04.zip seems to work OK with 4.1.2 on my operator's network).

[Asus Transformer TF700] nadram:
I have 2 issues with the pre-installed apps:

A- People app does not display Facebook contacts

In the people app under "Contacts to display" I have selected All Contacts, which include Google, G+, Facebook and Linkedin.

I have also made sure that under Settings - Accounts - Facebook, the check box for sync contacts is marked.

I have cleared data for the People and Facebook apps and restarted but that didn't help.

How to get this to work?

B- Gallery app displays some empty Picasa folders

These folders are displayed only with a date, the Picasa logo and the number 0 (as in zero pictures in this album).

I've cheked my Picasa Web Albums and my G+ albums, and I do not have any empty folders, but the Gallery keeps showing them.

Again, I've cleared the app data and restarted - same result.

I know I can easily replace these apps and disable them, but I was hoping to keep the stock ones.

I'd really appreciate some help or suggestions.

Thanks to all in advance.
[Asus Transformer TF700] nadram:
Regarding People app

After comparing both tablet and phone version of Facebook I've realized that contact synchronization is not available in the tablet version. It's just not available in the Facebook app options!

Gave up on this one

Regarding Gallery app

I spent some time looking for alternative gallery applications that are able to synchronize Facebook and Google Plus pictures as well as play videos. And that's really all I need nothing more. And I failed. I could not find 1 single application that could do that. Sad.

SO, does anyone know of such an application???

If not, does anyone know how to get rid of the empty non existent Picasa folders?

Hello guys I have a Sony Xperia S wich is running ICS and I want to run JB through Cyanogenmod 10. I unlocked the bootlader rooted my phone and installed CWM when I boot in recovery mode in order to install Cyanogenmod 10 nozomi I get the folowing error:

I have no ideas, I wipe cache and everything even before flashing the phone in order to get it working but still doesn't work. I had to restore it to ICS several times cause it just keeps failling.

By the way if anyone knows where can I get some knowledge on Android I would appreciate it. I don't want to be just a parasite. Wanna help.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] [The Punisher]:
It's probably because you wiped system data.

Either restore system img from nandroid backup or flash stock using flashtool.

Read as much info as you can before flashing. Good place to begin would be http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1526866

Hi there.

I am experiencing the same problem. I had Miui rom and now I'm trying to install CM 10. I keep encountering this status 7 error. Initially I was trying with recovery-nozomy, later with recoverX. Same problem. Now I flashed boot.img from fastboot. I restored system from my backup. Still getting the same error. I even tried editing the updater-script, but then I just got another error message, I believe it was a status 6 error.

Does anyone have any good ideas about how to solve this issue? It would be nice to try CM 10.

Thanks in advance.

Ok guys so this is the one that doesn't work for me. I think that the problem is the order of the guide cause he asks to flash the ROM before flashing the kernel. So if a newbie like me follows that guide it may brick their phone.

It won't let me post URLs so is one taking from androidlegend in case you guys see it.

And here is the other one the one the worked for me. And by the way is not that the other guide is completely useless is that the critical part doesn't work (because of the order) but here is the one!!

Ladies and gentleman THE GUIDE THAT REALLY WORKS!! The one that works is at the beginning of this post it's a Youtube video.

Thanks to all the people who made it possible. But just a little question, my phone's battery doesn't last as before, could it be something I missed?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Akhil:
Let the ROM and kernel settle for a bit...then you will have a better battery life

U r using which version ? FXP 147??

If so then you will have a really very good battery life..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dani21pb:
No actually I'm using 146, when did 147 came out? Is it difficult to update?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Akhil:
3 days ago, i guess.. if you are coming from cm10 then just wipe cache and dalvik and flash the ROM but i recommend you should also wipe data for a fresh install and for a fabulous xperience.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dani21pb:
Hey I just tried that and it doesn't work, actually I had to restore to an original ROM and try it again from scratch and I'm getting these errors:

Hey guys thank yuo all for the replies and the help, I tried it again but instead of wiping everything I just wipe the cache and install and it worked fine. If someone else tries it, don't wipe the dalvik and all of that just wipe your cache and install ZIP from sd card and it'll work fine. Now, how do I close it?

Hi, I'm just a newby, and it was a little while ago I played with the Xperia S. You didn't write which recovery u are using. The one I used, I believe it was recoverX, could install a rom, but then you had to connect in fastboot mode and flash a boot.img to start system up. Can't you just restore your factory rom and flash boot.img and then copy your custom rom to SD-card? Then start all over? :)

Hey, there is something you can try. First, download a FTF file wich is here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1669906 Search for an oficiall firmware.

Hello,

Maybe you will help a noob. So I bought my first smart-phone HTC HD2 and tried to install tytung Jelly Bean 4.12. Everything went smooth using Aroma installer (installed with data on SD EXT4). The operating system worked wonderfully, but after the first reboot it is showing me System UIDs Inconsistent error message (UIDs on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or your device will be unstable). There is one button "I'm felling lucky" and when you press it a bunch of pop-ups of stopped services shows.

Does anyone knows how to fix this? I guess the system can't access data on SD card (I use 1gb micro SD card with ~500mb EXT4 partition and the rest of the space is FAT32 with 8KB cluster size). The ROM thread tells to make FAT32 partition with 32kB cluster size, but I was unable to do that. Oh, and after the install Aroma installer showed a message not to forget to set something to NativeSD, but I didn't understand/do that

Thanks for any help!
