[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] synthecypher:
I did follow them to the letter, does installing CWM Recovery actually root the phone or is "rooting" the phone a different process entirely that's required for installing CWM Recovery?.

:laugh:

Phone: Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE

Ended up using Auto-Root which seemed to work no problem. :)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] johnnyblaze1977:
I initially had a rooted stock ROM that i was using for ages then upgraded to a custome ROM but for personal reasons decided to go back to stock.

Loaded stock ROM with intention of rooting only to get rid of bloatware, but not one of the ODIN Flash recoveries work at all, not one, so like you ended up using CF Auto and that worked but now im still stuck with Stock Recovery. I dont understand why none of the recoveries flash when they did before.

trouble with cwm/ twrp

Hi all. Yes I'm a noob and I wouldn't ask If hadn't tried a plethora of ways to install either cwm or twrp.

It took me a good hour to find this thread so hope I'm in the right place.

Ok I used odin to root and cwm didn't stick so still on stock rec. However I used framaroot to get super su working and titanium says I'm all rooted up. Other apps only for root also work.

I've since tried using goo manager and Rom manager to install cwm or twrp and both say unsupported.

I've searched these here threads and found a few with same problem namely when using odin cwm wont stick and android reinstalls stock recovery.

So I'm a bit stuck, I'm rooted but have no cwm or twrp.

Any help would he much appreciated.

Try Philz recovery .
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] ashraf sharif:
I have never used a custom recovery on this phone but i think i read somewhere that when flashing by odin the thing to do is not let odin reboot the phone. untick the reboot option. then when odin is done flashing and says pass shut down the phone . dont let it boot up.once phone is off you can boot into recovery by vol up+hom+power Here is the tricky part. as soon as you see the white samsung start to load aka bootloader screen release the power button but continue to press volume up and home. you should see the circle with the hat symbol. and enter into clockworkmod once in clockwork mod you will need to wipe data cache and dalvick DO NOT WIPE SYSTEM then flash a custom rom zip that you have previously copied to either your extsdcard or sdcard0 at the same time you probably will want to flash gapps as well. the thing is if you boot up before entering recovery . the default native recovery from samsung will take its place back. maybe it is easier to just flash rom manager in the play store. flash clockworkmod and then boot into recovery from the app itself. I9300 is supported . dont know about I9305
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] dokta-d:
thanks !

Thats exactly how I understood the cwm not sticking problem. I have tried rom manager and said not compatable with my device as did goo manager for twrp. I think odin is the only way I get it to stick. So il flash in odin and il try to get into cwm as it boots and wipe those two files you mentioned.

But then can I just boot up as normal ? or will android try to reflash its stock rom ? Damn my phone for being so difficult :(

I only ask because I haven't decided what CR to use yet (or even looked for any). I was gonna get it all ready first then learn how to install a CR - 1 thing at a time i thought.

Anyway thanks for your help :good:

JJEgan I found Philz thread to be helpful but something I feel Im just not ready for. Im new to this and although the updated cwm looked cool there were just to much going on, maybe for a later day.

Thanks all the same :good:
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] ashraf sharif:
wiping data plus cache plus dalvick cache is done to prepare your phone for the custom rom that you are going to flash. the wiping is to clean those partitions because if they are not erased you will have problems. especially if you go from one android version to another or touchwiz to aosp. it is done so you get a clean install with minimal issues. if it is not done you will most likely bootloop. effectively it is a factory reset. all of your apps and app data will be gone so you do not want to do that unless you have backed up your apps . however sometimes google automatically installs them after you sign in.

I am not sure why clockwork mod does not stick but if you copy the rom you want to your phone install clockworkmod with odin and then use clockwork mod to flas the rom and gapps package then factory reset you will not have the stock recovery anymore. but this has to be done without booting into android stock . PLEASE FOLLOW THE FLASHING INSTRUCTIONS TO THE BEST OF YOUR ABILITY. AND UNDERSTAND ANYTIME YOU FLASH OR MODIFY YOUR PHONE YOU VOID YOUR WARRANTY AND POSSIBLY CAN CAUSE IRREPARABLE DAMAGE. BEST OF LUCK!

think I got it lol

Ok that's sounds good. However I've just read the threads you linked and now I've got to back up my imei and NV files first or il loose them when flashing. The procedure is all there and seems doable for a noob but i read some peeps are having trouble just doing that. I really wanted to root/install a CR regardless of the troubles cos I want full access and more importantly want to learn all the ins and outs so I can get the best use from my phone so glad I found this forum cause I'm sure I would have bricked my phone otherwise.

Might I ask if I've got this right tho?

1: backup imei/NV files

2: use odin to get cwm to stick using your method

3: boot into cwm to wipe data/dalvick cache and gapps

4:use cwm to flash a CR

5:factory reset

I think that's right?

CLOSE

1 BACKUP EFS FOLDER(IT CONTAINS imeiAND SERIAL NUMBER AND OTHER NETWORK SETTINGS) MAKE AT LEAST 2 BACKUPS ONE FOR EXTERNAL SDCARD AND ONE TO KEEP ON YOUR PC

2 INSTALL CWM RECOVERY USING ANY WORKING METHOD. byTHE WAY PHILZ CAN BACKUP EFS.

3 IN CWM RECOVERY MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP OF YOU CURRENT ROM. I FORGOT TO TELL YOU THAT ,THIS IS IN CASE YOUR FLASH FAILS YOU CAN RESTORE CURRENT ROM FROM BACKUP. ALWAYS BACKUP BEFORE A FLASH

4 IN CWM RECOVERY WIPE DATA, CACHE , AND DALVIK CACHE

5 IN CWM RECOVERY FLASH ZIP FOR ROM AND FLASH ZIP FOR GAPPS "GOOGLE APPS"

6 BOOT ANDROID THIS MAY TAKE UP TO 10 MINUTES FOR THE INITIAL BOOT. BE PATIENT. IF IT BOOTS YOU ARE DONE

7 IF PHONE DOES NOT BOOT THEN IN RECOVERY WIPE DATA AND CACHE AND DALVIK AGAIN

8 STILL NOT BOOTING FLASH ROM ANG GAPPS AGAIN

NOT BOOTING? RESTORE NANDROID

FACTORY RESET=WIPE DATA AND CACHE

DONT EVER WIPE SYSTEM UNLESS YOU HAVE A RECENT NANDROID. NANDROID IS GOOD BUT THE OLDER IT IS THE MORE LIKELY IT IS TO GET CORRUPTED

ALSO IF YOU GET FORCE CLOSES FIXING PERMISSIONS USUALLY WORKS FOR THAT.

SOME ROMS ARE FLASHED IN DIFFERENT WAYS .ALWAYS FOLLOW THE DEVELOPERS INSTRUCTIONS

I Just disassembled the battery after a full-wipe for few minutes and it works... i don't know y, but that was the only way... ?!
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] dokta-d:
brilliant thanks!

Thank-you for all that,I really appreciate it.

Can I ask the difference between the apps nandroid manager and titanium? I've backed up with both and wondered if i really needed to? The nandroid backup was nearly 3gb!

Also I was gona backup with qpst for imei and NV files but then read its only for US versions? Will the backup of efs folder include those?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] ashraf sharif:
honestly i really dont know what the differences are. l do not use custom recoveries or custom roms. i dont use titanium backup .Any rom I flash i get from sammobile.com. one reason i do not use custom roms is that none can support mhl. I use a monitor and bluetooth mouse and keyboard . without mhl I cant mirror my screen so i always stay with stock roms. i use Xposed framework for modifications.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mode7456:
Does any one know is the back covers of N7100 and N7105 are same or not, i mean will it fit on each other?

Also, one major thing i noticed was that the Original battery that comes with both these phones states as 3.8v, but on ebay the higher capacity batteries (like 6500mAh) has 3.7v written on them. But they still say it's compatible with both these phones. And some buyers even left positive feed backs about how good the battery is. If the Voltages are not the same shouldn't it cause problems?

I was planning on buying one of those higher capacity batteries for the N7105 until i noticed that voltage difference.

Oh and one more thing, does the battery on both these phones work on each other?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pat.:
Look on eBay you will see original back covers fit both.

Batteries are same.

Voltage changes as battery drains its not a set thing, look at your charger it will most likely say 5 volts .... when you charge a 3.7/8 v lithium cell it should be ideally charged to 4.2v it complicated if you aren't into electronics.

Basically don't take any notice of 3.7 or 3.8 .. it will be correct.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apallohadas:
More than likely. Just check ebay for whichever battery you have in mind.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mode7456:
In ebay for every high capacity battary (5000mAh, 5200Mah, 6500mAh, 7000mAh, ...) they give a free modified back cover with it.

But after reading many reviews and googling, the best battery for your Note 2 is currently ZeroLemon (9300mAh). The protective cover which comes with this battery is pretty sweet. And your fone can last 3 days + without recharging.

Yes, you need custom recovery for root. No need to change recovery back until the next update is due at which time I believe you will have to unroot and go back to completely stock which can be done by running the RUU again.

After Google Services drying up my monthly data cap trying to download 4.3, I thought I'd move from PACman v23 to the new Paranoid Android 3.92 as it had 4.3. I thought I did all the right things. I backed up in Rom Manager, copied the file across to my PC. I ran a fresh backup of everything in Titanium Backup and copied that all across to my PC too.

I did a factory reset/data wipe and flashed bootloader/modem/rom/gapps as instructed and got the latest Paranoid Android running. I copy across my TB backup directory and I install TitaniumBackup from the market place. I go restore missing apps, and then... it just hangs on the first app. Read a little online, change the restore mode to "Interactive", doesn't fix it. Go back to the normal setting. I run Verify Backups, and to my surprise, it says there are errors with ALL my backup files. I get pissed, decide perhaps I should've just created a flashable zip. So I say no problem. I'm persistent. I'll create a backup of Paranoid Android, reflash my PACman backup, redo my Titanium Backup, and then reflash my Paranoid Android backup and apply the TB backup zip. So I Copy my PACman zip file, choose Install ZIP from sdcard, select the PACman zip and boom... MD5 verification failed.

I realise I had some Titanium Backup essentials backup on Google Drive and Dropbox, so I copy them over. Point TB to that directory, but the same problem persists. It just hangs.

I've been copying across the same TB folder between various ROM installations with no issues, and I'm not sure what is causing the issue here. I suspect it is either the bootloader and radio (which was what has been the extra step compared to installing other roms) but I don't want to admit that now all my backups are completely useless.

Am I missing something here? Anyone have any suggestions?

TL;DR I can't seem to get any TB backups to restore on my newly flashed Paranoid Android rom.
