Man 2 hours of screen time in more than 2 days ahah

My 'intensive usage' is 2 hours in the morning...

And i don't have other phones or tablets to use next to this one otherwise I don't go through the day

Cmon just be honest here
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nigeldg:
We are being honest, your usage is just ridiculously high. Not a single smartphone will last you a day if you use it that much, unless it has an extended battery. Why do you refuse to understand that you're not the only damn person in the world, and for the majority of people the battery life is great?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pesante:
Look... I´m not saying that without knowing "other" smartphones.

I´ve been using iPhone since last week and I was able to go through a full day without even thinking about the battery, all features on, with the exact same usage

that´s simple

So far the N4 is the best phone for me. And I have a note2, SGS3 and a Xperia Z

The N4 FTW it is awesome. The only thing I miss is the super smoled screen!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxys:
Get the N4 while its still hot :) and before its too late! ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] br0ok1ynb0i:
Do it, its more worth it than buying an unlocked note 2. For the price you cannot get any better. But if you are fine with the gs2, then that's the cheapest alternative.

Hmmm. Maybe I never *did* flash anything...

"Build number JRO03L.L710VPBLJ7"

Doesn't that mean plain old Jelly Bean?

I vaguely remember installing Clockwork Mod so I could get JellyBean early.

I guess I want to uninstall Clockwork Mod so I can do OTA updates from Sprint, etc. I found these threads, but they are for Galaxy Tab 2...:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1800175How to Uninstall Clockwork Mod Recovery?[/URL]

[ODIN STOCK ROM] GT-P3113 Stock ROM for Odin flash

But since last fall, I've had to re-install Windows.

So, two questions:

1) Jellybean is standard on Galaxy S3's by now, right?

2) What do I need to install on my PC to uninstall Clockwork Mod Recovery? Odin? Anything else?

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TheSocalGuy79:
I would suggest searching the Q&A thread for all this. You should read up before you start installing roms or doing any mods to your phone.

Sent from my Freeza MC3 Stock Rooted Galaxy S3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Dougmeister:
Thanks. Will do.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] topherk:
Might I interject here? If the only reason you want to go back to stock recovery is to get the OTA updates, I personally don't think you need to. Typically, Freeza has the most up-to-date Stock, Rooted Rom

over in his thread

. In my case, he usually has it well before I get the OTA notification from Sprint. If you think his thread is daunting to look at, you really only want to flash one of the following (I always remove direct links to the Roms out of respect for the dev's):

The MC3 Rom is a leak of a new OTA that might come out soon (or it'll be incorporated in a future OTA). The MB1 Rom is the most current, stock Rom. All you have to do is flash it and you're updated. If you need help with how to flash it, you can look to

my post over here

. Since you're going from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2, I'd recommend a "clean install" (step 5 in my instructions) just to minimize the chance of Force Closes, but you should be good if you want to do a "dirty flash" (only wipe cache and dalvik cache). If you dirty-flash, though, any and all troubleshooting will boil down to doing a clean install and seeing if the problem persists.

Also, CNexus has written up a really good OTA Guide to help you understand the whole OTA thing more and to recognize your options. You can check out

his post over here

.

Hope this helps!

Edit: It might also be good to update your Recovery before proceeding. Depending on how old your CWM is, it might be best to get an updated one (with hopefully fewer bugs). Thankfully, Naddict has created updates that are

flashable from the Recovery itself

. All you have to do is download the one you want (I'm using TWRP 2.5.0.0, but CWM is fine, too) and flash it in your custom Recovery, then reboot into recovery again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Dougmeister:
topherk, thanks!

I took your advice and upgraded my ClockworkMod. (I also installed TWRP, which I think overwrote it, but that's another story).

I'm going to go over your post in more detail (hopefully) this weekend.

I tried flashing some different ROMs to see what they were like. I was not impressed, so I went back to stock.

Can you tell me something? If I use TWRP to back up everything, I still need to install GAPPS, right? Then I need to do something with GAPPS and Platinum Backup before I wipe/re-install to keep all/most of my programs/settings, right? Then run GAPPS again after I flash the new ROM?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] topherk:
Yeah, you can only have one recovery installed at once. I use TWRP, others use CWM. In my opinion, it shouldn't matter too much. They're both good and as far as I'm aware, the newest of each are relatively bug-free. The only thing is once you have backups for one, you can't restore them with the other. This isn't that big of a deal, but just an FYI.

I'll break your questions here:

As far as I'm aware, all TouchWiz Roms include GAPPS in them by default. Of the flip side, no AOSP Roms will include them. This is because Google has asked dev's to not include them (in a Rom) unless specifically approved by Google. Samsung has gotten that approval for their TW framework, so any Rom based on TW can (and do) include GAPPS. If you're in doubt and the Rom doesn't say, first re-read the thread, as it's a common question. Then you can just flash the Rom without GAPPS and load up your phone. If GAPPS is included, you'll have a play store. If not, then you can just reboot into recovery and install it. Easy as pie.

I believe you mean Titanium Backup (another precious metal). Using TiBk, I actually have an automatic restore done every morning at 3am. Then if I decide to flash a new Rom, I always have an up-to-date backup of my apps. I never restore system apps, as that's just asking for trouble when switching Roms. I always back up my messages and phone log, but nothing that's red in TiBk. And for most apps, you don't

have

to restore data (only the app). I only restore data for games and apps like Hulu so I don't have to log in again.

Hoep this helps!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Yeah stock based roms will include GAPPS, AOSP roms cant because they arent officially licensed to distribute them...

As for the original question, I think I have it figured out. If you go to /system/build.prop and open that file, the great majority of devs will modify the relevant lines to the name of their custom roms. On cm roms theres a line called "cm.version=", which devs will usually modify that on a CM rom

The name is in there somewhere...could be changed on a couple lines, or on ALL the relevant lines, but it will be changed most of the time

Hope this helps ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Dougmeister:
Is there a way to just directly upgrade Jellybean from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 without having to re-install (via Gapps?) all of my applications, etc.?

I thought I read that I could unroot, do the OTA upgrade, then root again? I'm reading the OTA guide by CNexus, and 'freezing' the update app seems like a good option, but that just keeps the nag screen away.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
All you need to do is follow the guide. You can download the MB1 firmware from freezas thread, and then flash an updated version of your rom. If you are on stock rooted, then you can flash one of freezas plain stock rooted roms over what you have (i would recommend a backup first though)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Just a small correction Gapps strictly refers to Google made apps (maps, play store, books, etc) you usually only flash these when working with AOSP roms. You sound like your talking about Touchwiz roms and thus your not loading all your apps through gapps, because Gapps are already included with Touchwiz roms. What you are referring to is reloading all your apps through Google Play Store and using the Google restore feature.

Transmitted with a portable device using Xparent Blue Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Dougmeister:
Yes! I'm talking about:

1) Backing up everything on my Galaxy S3

2) Installing other ROMs (sometimes stock, sometimes AOSP)

(side question: "stock" = "TouchWiz"???)

3) Magically re-installing *all* of my apps in the new ROM by clicking a single button

To do that, I'll need to use the "Google restore" feature?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] miller710:
Titanium backup is what I use. Paid version and you dont have to click ok for each app

Sent from my blue galaxy
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
You don't have to hit ok for each app when you use google restore the correct way. It automatically reloads your apps on your device. TB is a great also but never restore data it is the root of most issues caused when people use it.

Hi all,

NoobTW requested a flashable zip of this firmware and I went ahead and made it. Decided to drop it here because it will probably get more exposure here and more people can enjoy it.

I'm an LT30p user myself so I can't do much in terms of support.

Just wanted to give you this to spark some interest in building your own ROMs and get you going.

Use dsixda's Android Kitchen, once you learn to master it, you're on your way to becoming a ROM Chef.

Please don't ask me for any updates or new features. This is provided "as is".

Feel free to use this as a base for your own ROM as long as give me some credit and link to this thread

Atteched you will find the update-binary and updater-script for reference

Make a full nandroid backup and make sure you have the ftf handy in case of emergency.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] tiktok1:
I'm having a play around with the ROM in the OP using dsixda's kitchen, but as this is the first time I've tried this I need a little advice.

1. When in the kitchen, it wants to change the updater-script to an update script, can I just go ahead and do this ? Or does this step need a XV specific script? I'm confused as to the relevance of the script added in the OP and if I should somehow be using that.

2. Is there a list somewhere of the bloatware (is this only apk's) that can safely be removed ? I can't find one.

Many thanks
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TiMiN8R:
Don't change it to update-script, it will mess things up when changing back to updater-script. Best you can do is unpack the ROM to a folder in the root of the kitchen and put WORKING_ in front of it. Just use the kitchen for building the ROM zip.

There's no definitive list of bloatware but if you Google "xperia bloatware" you will find the most common ones. The rest is personal.

I've installed CWM and a custom ROM, the bootloader is still locked.

Or shall I download the Firmware as FTF and flash it via Flashtool? (from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2227747&page=3)

In this case would I have to install Stock Kernel, too? And would the Recovery get Stock, too?

There's no such thing as stock recovery so you might as well flash the stock zip and kernel. If you flash an ftf you will have no recovery.
