So for the first time for my Galaxy S3 I wiill be rooting it and putting a custom ROM on it.

There so many ROMS I don't know which to download. I want a ROM that is Clean and is same as stock but improved and fixes bugs.

Any ones that are good to my requirement?

You see I knew someone would reply with that thread that your not allowed to post about best ROM.

It says "Best Rom"

I don't ask that. I ask for a ROM that is suited to my requirements, stock and fixes bugs.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mputtr:
it's just another way of asking for "the rom"

check the roll up for a link that categorizes the rom based on what it's based on.

The rest is up to you to read up on what has been fixed or not.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n82k:
What a ton of help you guys are. He's not asking for help or to have his hand held. He's asking for opinions from ppl that have his set of needs and have tried the ROMs. That is not against the rules. If you have no worthwhile comment, why come here to be a cunny? Go to your bus stop and rag the locals. This site is about guidance and mobile community, stop with the dickishness already. You guys breed the **** here.

While it is a site with guidance, it is also a developer site. It is a site that users must read and inform themselves which rom has the features, which rom suits them better. I got the GS3 just 5 days ago and I've tried 7 different roms, just to see what suits me better.

Thread closed as this does fall under the category of "Best Rom."

OP, good luck.

I think I'm missing cyttsp_fwloader on my phone. If anyone with an sk17i, and possibly 4.0 / cm9/10 could do a;

find / -name "cyttsp_fwloader"

for me (in terminal emulator, adb or other means), post the result here, and if the file is found; upload it here!

Background

After flashing the wrong rom for my phone my touch screen stopped working. I have tried a bunch of different things to get it back up; numerous different mods/kernels etc; to no avail. For instance, also wiping the touchscreen drivers etc, even wiping the whole system directory ;).

Anyway, opening the file hw_config.sh I can see a switch case being run, determining my touch screen driver based on my phone model as specified by the file

/sys/devices/platform/spi_qsd.0/spi0.0/appid

Checking it manually with cat; it seems to be correct!

The two last lines calles two different binaries

cyttsp_fwloader (some arguments, one being the path to a .hex file which I believe is the touch screen driver?)

bq275xx_fwloader

find / -name "bq275xx_fwloader"

results in hit(s) (have some symlinks due to botbrew-basil)

find / -name "cyttsp_fwloader"

- nothing!

Hence, I'm led to believe that cyttsp_fwloader is missing from my system.

I will try it later and let you know :)

I'm on sk17i, and I've found "bq275xx_fwloader" in /system/bin. This was on jelly bean.

On my MIUI rom, I've found "bq275xx_fwloader", "cyttsp_fwloader" and "cy8ctma300_fwloader". This is on ics.

I will zip these 3 files and you can flash it through cwm. But it's strange, why should the touchscreen drivers be in bin folder, if every rom has them in bin folder?!

You can download the zip here, but you do this on your own risk, maybe it will be completely destroyed. I don't think so, but only that you know it :good:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ulph:
Many thanks man! The zip makes it easier to get the stuff over, cool. I'm not sure it matters, but I had to chmod +777 the two files to get them runnable on the device. Now, it seems I was also missing another binary, nvloader if memory serves me right.

I'm trying a few different mods, found a one that gave me back these binaries; I can run hw_config.sh fine now, but still no luck getting the touch to work. So, I have to dig somewhere else; judging from this forums and users similar problems this is not really solved.

Thanks for the help though, much appreciated!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
Another user reported the touch would work again after flashing an xperia active rom and the rom for your device again. But I can't promise, maybe your device would brick :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] focus_1389:
any progress?

i have tried flashing the active rom and recieved the following error:

24/002/2012 02:02:05 - ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS";ERR_STATIC="IMAGE_ADDRESS_RANGE";ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN-block eraseblock mismatch";

I have attached a screenshot of the same as well. If you come up with a guide to replace the touchscreen files via emulator then it would be of immense help. I am pretty sure it is a software problem.

Another thing i noticed when i logged into the service menu>software info

touch firmware version:

"the phone doesnt support firmware version read." <<<<<< aint this fishy? coz the touchscreen aint taking any input i guess :cyclops:

I got my EVO 3D on Virgin a few days ago. I am running MeanROM, S-off, unlocked bootloader. Everything was working fine, until a few minutes ago when I got an SMS error:

Radio Interface Resource Shortage

Cause Code: 64

Error Class: 2

What does this mean and how do I fix it? SMS was working fine yesterday, and I haven't changed any settings that would interfere with SMS that I know of. I apologize in advance if this issue has been addressed already.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
That's a known problem with the Evo V 4G and there was a recent over the air (OTA) update to fix it by flashing new firmware, which is essentially the same firmware as the Sprint ICS release. Since you are S-OFF, you can apply the OTA using the directions for S-OFF users in this post.

Note that the OTA can not be installed without the stock recovery in place.

I dont know if this tip is here but to change alarm tone delete System\media\audio\alarms\1_Good_Morning.ogg and copy here your .ogg sound (maybe mp3) and rename to 1_Good_Morning.ogg ...this works for others sound as sms etc.... ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] morrisx:
You can make these directories onto your sd card, and copy the sound files there (mp3 or ogg, it can be either of them).

It is simpler than your way :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] aero_cz:
bud this dont work on my stock rom... :p
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] morrisx:
How did you make the directory? Becouse you don't have to make system on the sd, just /media, and into this dir make alarms, ringtones, etc...

It works, on my stock, i think it should work on all roms.

Hey guys first post. I have side loaded 2 games to my HP TouchPad. I had to copy the game data folders to root. The problem is Both of the folders have the same name, and when I change the name of either one the games will not start. Is there a way change the name of the destination file of one of the games, or set one of the folders to a different path, and the game still work. My operating system is ics 4.04' and I am rooted.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tk1257:
OK I will re-explain. I am rooted on an hp touchpad . Running cyanogenmod 9 4.04 ics. I have side loaded 2 games meaning installed them from the internet not downloaded through the play store. I put 2 games at the root of my SD card. Spiderman and wild blood, by installing the apk, then pasting the game data at root of SD card with, es file explorer. The two games both use the folder gameloft. You cannot have two folders with the same name on the SD card. I have found a couple scripts that will change the destination (file path) of the games, but has not worked. I thought there might be a way to change the name of the folder where the game would still recognize the folder as its data. Though I cannot find a script to do so. So I am stuck changing the name of one of the folders every time I want to play one of those games. I need help getting both games to play without having to change the name of the game folder to play. Thanks for any help and expertise in advance. Merry Christmas. A speedy reply would be much appreciated.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phonehunter59:
With the gameloft games, there is a file folder inside which has the actual game, just move the contents of one gameloft folder to the other and put that folder on the root and it will work...and threatning for an answer by saying you will delete your account, is going to get you nowhere fast
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -SGA-:
This is true. I am certain that if you took time to explore the file system, that you would discover the directory includes a number of redundant file paths. Take for example:

/sdcard/Gameloft/data/wildblood

/sdcard/Gameloft/data/spiderman

This could be solved by merging the folders resulting in a single file path:

/sdcard/Gameloft/data/wildblood

...................................../spiderman

See what we mean?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gtgrad:
Hi All,

Whenever I install a new ROM, I always have to rejoin contacts (such as from Facebook & Google to their phone number).

Is there a way to have this saved maybe somewhere online or on the SIM card so I do not have to rejoin contacts every time I reflash a different ROM? I am what you would call a flashaholic so I reflash my phone fairly often and I'd like to be able to not have to rejoin contacts every time.

Also, is there a way for Google Play Store to automatically download APPs that was on my previous ROM in AOSP ROMs? I noticed this feature in TW-based ROMs but not in AOSP.

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dynamite972:
Did you ever figure out a good way to do this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ManiakalSealion:
All of my contacts I save to my Google account, I disable SIM/Facebook. Every time I flash a ROM all of my contacts automatically sync. There should be an option while setting up your account on new ROMs to automatically sync your google information. Sometimes it will work for apps. To make it easier to switch between ROMs you can always use a nandroid backup to avoid reinstalling apps each time.

I do believe back in my TBolt days on AOSP I had this same problem. I found it simpler to go onto my PC, and install all my apps from PC to my phone. You can easily browse your apps this way, and send them to your device to install much faster.

Firstly, you probably do not need to factory reset. If you really want to you could open up your play and see if you can trigger the back button manually for PC companion.
