So much whine so little cheese. If you play with fire you will get burned.

The process is as follows.

1. Void warranty with hacked software.

2. Repeat for no good reason till soft bricked

3. Find out you should have backed ****.

4. Find original rom

5. Learn how to soft unbrick

6. Frag your bootloader

7. Learn how to mount your phone's drive from a Unix box and Derrick.

8. Bugger up phone so bad 7 does not work.

9. Learn how to solder traces and make a jtag cable

10. Break phone and replace

11. Reverse engineer rom on old phone and use phone as wife router/movie streaming device etc.

The expectation that **** won't break is not reasonable when you load code off the Internet onto your device.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
For everyone freaking out

When I look at my screen, it says I am in the AT&T Galaxy S3 Android Development forum. If I had been in a different forum, I would not have posted a link for AT&T devices. The devices can be the same all they want, but in the end they aren't, and you have to really read in order to not destroy your phone. For everyone complaining, they all know that an M warrants the canadian version, yet they didn't read the file name.

Seriously, you're messing around with a $600 device. Say I installed a kernel from Ktoonz and it wiped my IMEI (Which it has), I don't get angry at the developer, as it was my own will that made me flash the kernel. For months I wouldn't run the VZW kernel from Imoseyon, until I recently learned that you can use them on AT&T devices, but once I actually went and READ about it, I learned that I could use the kernel.

Anyways you guys, Just don't install the firmware update, the ROM is fine.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
Try Odin'ing back to stock. Maybe something got corrupted along the way, I do a full Odin at least once a month or so. It wipes your phone completely clean.

A child forum of the AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III forums.

Never before have you released a I747 only ROM or Kernel in this entire thread. Because of that, and for having the history of all your previous releases working fine on I747M devices, one would assume that nothing would change in the next release, especially without warning. A simple "no more rogers devices noobs" was all it would've taken.. instead you've gone and taken the Task650 route and said "lol sucks to be you, FU!" approach, and therefore have lost me as a user and supporter of your work.

Your 1.6 ROM works with I747M, I get that, but then specify in the link that only says "download this and flash" that it should be ONLY on I747 variants. All users who flashed it, myself included, are now out of a phone because of that **** up.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TheSchatz:
I have seen that problem a few times as well. Just reboot it (charger unplugged) and let it boot up fully. Then plug in again and see if that helps.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
I still see AT&T Galaxy S3 development. I would never ever install something I don't know about, or if I knew what it was.

And I don't get how there's still so many downloads of the Firmware.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ps3kev:
Just keep doing the good work you do pwn don't worry about the others
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Wiltron:
Possibly because the post still is a generic "do it or it wont work" type link. A lot of the releases of the latest kernel and ROM and what not have been similar. Your previous releases and patch notes post are all short, "flash xxx version to fix yyy problem". Many find this forum by googling their model number, and it leads them here. To state that your ROM is for a specific variant of the device only because you refuse to acknowledge that it's part of a parent forum of collective devices is just as ignorant as people who didn't read the file name entirely.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polsonov:
I downloaded it, then did my due diligence and saw it wasn't for the 747m.

I feel like people get a hard on to flash the newest **** without really knowing their device or what they're flashing. Its so simple to root and install a recovery on the phone now that pretty much anyone can do it. That's where you run into issues with people just flashing away and not really paying any attention to what they're actually flashing.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
I never saw this as an issue, and I assumed that if you were smart enough to realize that you have to install a CANADIAN bootloader and modem for CANADIAN phones, you would be smart enough to look at a model number. You even said it yourself. In the future I'll make sure that everything is labeled, but all the downloads are, and the area in which I post should be a giveaway.

Yes most releases are short little fixes.... but that's the point of the releases. I'm sorry if they're too short, but I put up what I find useful. I'm not gonna spout nonsense if nobody is going to understand it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sajoeee:
Thanks PwnCakes, for the rom. And sorry for those who hard bricked. I recommend, taking off the modem and bootloader off youre devhost so no more can be caused and also from op.

But anyways guys, CHECK THIS OUT! ;

I used to run this ROM when it first came out. I wanna run it again but every time I go back to it my phone doesn't play nice. I flashed 1.5 with the final kernel and my phone randomly shuts off. I have to pull the battery and turn it back on.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Malf8:
Pwn some feedback. I'm one of your users that has had the sod's with your kernels. I've noticed that my phone doesn't have any sod's while charging but only once it hits deep sleep for awhile off of charge. I'm not sure if the charging has anything to do with the power collapse you've mentioned but I thought I'd share. I am on the updated bootloader and modem and have been from the start. Just wanted to send the info your way if it helps you clarify anything. If not no worries this is in no way a complaint. Keep up the awesome work and don't let the other issues discourage you or get you down. Thank you for an awesome rom and support of this thread.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
Well how did you get the bootloader and modem? The reason it doesn't SOD is because during charge your phone doesn't go into deep sleep, thus not calling on Standalone Power Collapse, or SPC.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RobbieL811:
Man, don't sweat any of this BS on the last 2 or 3 pages! They are a bunch of idiots that deserve to brick their phones if they aren't smart enough to know the difference between a boot loader & a ROM. Before ANYTHING is flashed it should always be read about & also researched. What is it & what will it do? You should never flash anything just because "the last one worked"! Anybody that flashed the boot loader update by accident on an I747M needs to go back to touchwiz & leave their phones alone until they educate themselves some more! You clearly stated that it was a bootloader update in the AT&T thread! I would say f*** them too if I was you!

It all says d2att or i747!!!!!!!!!

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theyurtingyeti:
Hmmm... I believe it's in the kernel directory (at least that's the directory listed when you open the 'bunny' file) So I'm guessing there's a kernel folder with matching file names to what's in those files you could harvest from one of the ROMs?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MJPollard:
For the record, adding something like "flash this if you're using an I747 (but not if you're using an I747M, as you'll brick your phone)" isn't a matter of catering to "idiots." It's a matter of clarity, of professionalism, of making sure that everyone is on the same page and avoiding problems like this one has blown up into. I'm sure that PwnCakes didn't do it on purpose; he wasn't sitting in his room like a moustache-twirling villain, saying "how can I f**k with them now" and laughing maniacally like Doctor Evil. :) I'm sure it was simply an oversight, borne from assumptions about how users would act. Hell, everyone's done that! The sign of a true professional is recognizing that oversight and working to fix it so that it doesn't happen again; PwnCakes has done that, and that's to his credit. That's all anyone has been asking, really, yet some here felt the need to go into Typical XDA Jacka** Member mode and drag this discussion into the sewer (to the point where some probably started to wonder if they'd wandered into a certain-developer-who-shall-not-be-named thread instead). That didn't need to happen, and frankly, I'm ashamed to have gotten caught up in it myself.

So, okay. PwnCakes said he'd clarify who the firmware update is for (I747 users, not I747M). The users who bricked their phones are currently, or hopefully soon will be, looking into getting them fixed. We're all enjoying yet another great update to Quantum. I'd like to suggest that we all should just step back for a moment, take a deep breath, "take a stress pill" (as HAL 9000 would say), and start fresh. Put this behind us as a learning experience and move forward, as it were. That's what I'm going to do, anyway, as this will be my final word on the matter.

---------- Post added at 10:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 PM ----------

The thing is, you can't simply replace the file that contains the image (to my knowledge). You need to flash an update that contains the replacement image, because some code is needed in order to incorporate the image into the boot sequence thingy (sorry for the technical terms!). I created the boot image that PwnCakes is using, but then, he has the advantage of being able to take the image and compiling it directly into the ROM update. :) I can create a flashable ZIP of the stock Samsung boot image if you want it; you just need to flash it using recovery (CWM or TWRP).

Same thing is happening on my phone. I've had the updated firmware for a long time, basically ever since the firmware was released.

Edit: I'm running v1.35 with no issues. Both 1.5 and 1.6 have SOD. I tried with no special settings ("stock") and with 1024, row, asswax, MP off, burst off, & temp throttle on. I got SOD in both configurations.

Anyone have insight into my question above?

Also, I know I can flash 1.6 onto my Canadian (Rogers) I747M, but not the bootloader. That was clearly established over the past half dozen pages. But, my question pertains specifically to 1.6 vs 1.5: Will 1.6 be of any benefit to a I747M user who isn't flashing the bootloader? Will 1.6 potentially help battery life vs 1.5?

Thanks in advance.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] graphic1982:
Not trying to sound rude, but its pretty simple to make a backup then flash the update and see how it performs. If its not up to your liking then simple restore your backup. Asking if its going to help battery life is really dependent on how the user uses the phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] peach007:
Is Quantum Kernel-Test2 still the newest kernel(I have this saved on my phone still)? I cannot locate any download links for any of the kernels. Even a simple search yielded no results.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rob_z11:
I believe both 1.6 and 1.5 are extremely good on battery. I am on 1.6 with all the settings from op which can set using trickster, an app from market. I am using conservative as the governor for my CPU and set the clock speed from 384 to 1.6.

Another great app I use is greenify and wakelock detector to identify what apps keep your phone awake and use greenify to keep those activities from waking your phone.

Good battery life with both ROM. Make sure you do format system along with cache and dalvik about 3 to 4 times before flashing 1.6 over 1.5.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] curls00:
No need to apologize - it wasn't rude. I would have done the backup method but I figured someone has to have an idea if it's been better or worse(*) from 1.35 --> 1.5 --> 1.6. Simple question that I thought would have at least a few user opinion answers.

(*) -- assuming the user didn't change their usage habits too drastically between ROM versions.

---------- Post added at 09:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 AM ----------

I'm just doing a nandroid now and will be flashing 1.6 momentarily. I wonder if the change from OnDemand (back when I was using 1.20 and 1.35 I think), to IntelliDemand, made the battery life a bit worse. I'll fart around with the governors over the next few days I think. :)

I have TricksterMOD, and have used a wakelock detector. I haven't had any significant wakelocks to speak of. :)

Just a quick question, why is it that the notification toggles are larger but on the CM Nightlies they're the same style since 4.1?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RobertFontaine:
1.5 and 1.6 are both good on battery life and very smooth

I wouldn't be surprised if 1.2 is a little better as it has less features.

1.3 ate the battery so 1.2 never really got a fair comparison.

(@OP, it might be a good idea to add this to the first post) There IS ROOT access. To enable root access, go to "settings>about phone" tap "build number" around 10 times. Then go back to settings, and tap on "developer options" and enable root access. BUT for TiBu, you will need to flash the superuser zip from a few posts above mine.
