Successfully Stock ROM

:good:

I was researched all night and finially got the right thing needed. I am happy to share with my Driod Friends who are facing this issue. :fingers-crossed:

Steps:

1. Google:

and download the file.

2. Unzip it and extract boot.img to Fastboot folder and also copy the zip to SD Card.

3. Run CMD in Fastboot Folder by using Shift+Right Mouse click.

4. Connect the phone in Fastboot Unlocked.

5. Enter this command in CMD:

then use any Custom Recovery like CWM (Clockwork Mod Recovery) or TWRP

and place recovery.img to fastboot folder

then run:

6. Back to bootloader and click Factory Restore.

7. Now you entered in Recovery, just wipe factory and wipe disk partition.

8. Click Install from SD Card, then select the zip file you copied to SD Card.

Confirm by clicking yes. Then wait for a while it may take upto couple of minutes.

9. You will see, Successful notification. Now reboot the phone normally.

10. Horrayy...!! We are back to original rom. Just select English at startup wizard. :laugh:

Tips:

Settings: Power - and unselect Fastboot.

:highfive: Happy Drioding :highfive:

Dear lovers of portable devices !

Please help a desperated guy, searching for a tablet with a nice, high-resoluted, homogenous screen.

I´ve had several IPads (3,4,Air,rMini), Galaxy Tabs (7.7, 10.1), Surface RT/Pro, Nexus 10 and others.

Right now I am using an IPad 4 with an acceptable screen, though it could be better....

Any other device had serious problems like light bleeding and yellowish tint....

Especially the IPad Air and the rMini make me very sad ...

I know the tabs are not for the "pros", but I really feel that I do not want to bear such lacks anymore.

I do not want to have the impression that my expensive IPad was smoked...

Or that green color is bleeding out of my Nexus 10...

Is there any (actual) Tablet out there that could be called a seriously homogenous one ?

where do we need that blink if phone is working properly?

if there is message or low bat, bt or wifi connection, thats nice to know, but no need for green light to show that there is power.

so, how to disable that? registry hack or something i suppose.

thanks,

first time posting here...

Mat.. I think he's referring to e.g. the right-side green LED flash that pops up every 2 seconds when the radio is on. It can be a wee bit annoying when you've got the thing on your nightstand - some people simply can't fall asleep ( even though they should close their eyes, after which they can't see it anymore ;) )

What does the orange light mean? It seems to change to orange whenever it wants!

afaik...

Left LED:

Green, Flashing slow (2s): WiFi on

Blue, Flashing slow (2s): BlueTooth on

Right LED

Red, Flashing quickly (1s): Battery nearly empty

Green, Flashing slow (2s): Radio on

Green, On: Fully recharged

Amber (orange), On: Recharging

Amber (orange), Flashing quickly (1s): Notifications (Alarm, SMS, MMS, etc. depending on settings)

I apologize in advance if any of this makes you roll your eyes at my stupidity.

Good Afternoon

I have an ATT samsung galaxy s3, Because of the glitches with 4.3 I was experiencing I decided to install custom software on my phone. So I looked up guides and got everything I needed. I did manage to get root access, and verified with super user. I also installed TWRP and CWM because each kept giving me errors when I tried to install CM 11 onto my phone. I tried CWM first, and when that didn't work I tried TWRP. It says there was no MD5 information found when I try to install any mod. how ever I have used the md5 file checker program and the MD5 matches up to what was listed in this one for example.

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2518998

Download:

CM 11.0 Unofficial Beta 7 for d2tmo and d2att

MD5: ef93957db1e6704f23f9015231a82826

So the MD5 matches, yet when I try to install it keeps giving me errors. I also tried other versions of CM that I found on here via links. Right now my phone has no OS as another guide I read some where also said to wipe system data (sorry if that was stupid, I was just following a guideline) And even more stupid, no I don't have a backup because in my naivety and stupidity I didn't think I'd need one as it seemed so simple from all the guides and videos I'd seen.

Yesterday a friend of mine knowledgeable with tech stuff took one of the original stock Image ROMs I'd downloaded and using linux and some program he managed to do some crazy stuff I can't even describe on here. All I saw was a lot of typing of command lines and it got my phone working again, how ever it wasn't exactly the stock image I guess because the phone would not make or receive calls/texts.

Since my phone was powering on again and the android OS was loading I figured I could connect it to my computer and use KIES to download the official latest update so my phone would be back on the legit software. But trying to do that...well broke my phone again. So I'm at a loss now of what to do. Right now I can still get to download mode on my phone, but when I try to get into recovery mode I get an error that "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in KIES & try again." Which I've tried, and every time I try it gives me an error message.So I'm at a loss of what to do next.

So I'd like to get a working OS on my phone asap so I can get calls and texts.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. And being new I'm sorry if I broke any taboos or did not give some information that is typically given when describing a problem.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Deleted member 4493700:
same error happened to me yesterday and spent the whole day figuring it out. get into download mode. boot up ODIN and reflash your preferred custom recovery. after that, i couldn't find anything else to restore my phone with so i installed 4.3 leaked from here. doesn't matter which one you select. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2498233. place it on your sd card and head into recovery mode, wipe data/factory reset and cache. head to install zip from sd card and select the 4.3 zip you downloaded. reboot system and it should work. the at&t boot screen takes a while so be patient :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gvazquez82:
First of all thank you for trying to help me, I hope you are having a good Thanks Giving.

I used the thread you linked to, and downloaded the version with out knox. I followed the instructions

transferred ROM and flashed kernel file to SD card

used odin to flash TWRP,

used twrp to flash rom and kernel file.

and it takes the file thankfully, there's only one issue. My phone can't make or receive calls/texts. Is yours able to?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theramsey3:
I messed up and was playing with things That I had no business playing with and decided that I should do a restore of a backup (TWRP) I made as soon as I rooted the 4.3 OTA. well it has soft bricked my phone. it was a TWRP 4.3 Nandroid and has me messed up a little.

so far I tried My nandroid (no dice now a soft brick) cleared cache and dalvik, It was booting as far as the white at&t spinning thing,

Factory reset same on booting,

Tried a format of the internal sd this is where it gets sketchy it now goes as far as the second samsung screen(the one that says Samsung GALAXY S III)

4.3 OTA .zip (no dice TWRP wont flash it) same on the booting 2nd samsung boot screen

Tried the files in the link above and got a Hard brick

Used the debricking .IMG file and got TWRP and download mode back

Any suggestions?

Looks like I might need a JTAG/RIFF BOX for this one. If nothing else I spent many Hours of darkness discovering the darkness of android 4.3

If I get recovered from this and with a different rom like 4.1.2 I will be happy. the 4.3 OTA was very stable but I did miss wifi tether and the whole hardbrick thing was kind of a bummer. it would be real nice to have an ODIN file to fix this (AHEM samsung) or atleast perhaps stopped the progression of it to a hard brick.

New update

I got my phone booting up again however there is a catch. That unbrick.img file on my 16GB sd card is still required to boot the phone and I have no cell service what so ever. Tried to check apn settings because at home I sometimes get poor service and I run net10 so I was going to fix my apn and it says insert sim??? the sim is properly inserted???

Next Update

the bootloader I flashed apparently flashed to the external sd card? I flashed another one and it is booting from the internal sd. I had to flash a different modem the one in the bootloader/modem file I flashed from the link above didnt take? I got most everything sorted out, but im getting tired, it has been an all night adventure. its 08:23 est now

sorry for the delay in updating this I had to get some rest.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] spongdangly:
Go into Settings, About Phone, Status and check to see if your IMEI and Serial Number are present. If you only lost your IMEI there's a guide on how to inject it back (I'm not sure where the guide is). However if you've lost your serial number and don't have a Nandroid that can restore it I don't know what to do.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gvazquez82:
i have my serial number showing but no IMEI number. So is that all that's needed for me to be able to call and text again?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theramsey3:
I updated my post above and showed my soultion. I simply had to flash a new modem and almost everything was kosher. I also had to flasah a different kernel but that was for preference not because things werent working.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47817339&postcount=23 Modem download

I used that modem, flash it and see if your problems go away. I use Net10 so after I flashed the Modem I had to create an APN aswell, but that is nothing new for me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gvazquez82:
I will give that a shot, but what's an APN, sorry. And how do I create one, and is it needed for me to do so?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] spongdangly:
It should be, I'm working right now so I don't have time to fine the guide on how to inject your IMEI. If I remember correctly it involves using QPST. If you have an old (or any) working Nandroid backup that should fix the problem.

FYI, make sure you don't use the guide for the international S3 as it has different hardware and folder structure/contents.

As for the APN, it should automatically fill itself in since it reads it off the SIM Card (I might be wrong).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gvazquez82:
I tried it and it work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

67 texts just came in. Sir, I thank you oh so kindly. You have made this gloomy rainy day oh so joyous.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theramsey3:
No problem. Glad I could help you.

The real credit should go to -Mr.X-, loserskater and anyone else(no disrespect there were alot of files) whose stuff I tried to flash lastnight thank you all in the dev community who contribute.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gvazquez82:
So I guess the next question, do I try again to install kit kat on my phone.

I've already made bucks of my existing working phone haha....but I'd still like to have kitkat in place. I believe the issue of my phone not reading MD5 confirmations would still be in place, does anyone know how to remedy that situation?

At the same time I'm more than happy to leave my phone as is.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] flexfulton:
Pretty sure you can turn off MD5 checks in TWRP. Probably in CWM too. Sorry if this has been mentioned. Didn't have time to read the whole thread. Just skimmed through.

2nd, there is a major difference between an IMEI that reads 0 and an IMEI that shows unknown. If it shows an unknown simply reflash your ROM and modem and you will be good to go. Sometimes a reboot is all you need. If your IMEI is showing a 0 on the other hand its gone and will require that it be injected back in which is a messy situation that usually results in tour phone being stuck on EDGE.

3rd, as someone mentioned on the previous page, restoring a working nandroid will NOT reinject your IMEI if it shows up as 0. No amount of flashing anything will get it to come back. Not even stock. It needs to be reinjected manually.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gvazquez82:
do you know of a good stable kit kat like ROM I could use for the s3? And any speculation as to why the ROMs werent taking for me?
[HTC Wildfire S] muscut:
Hi,

I'm fairly new to all this "rooting" and "flashing" but I managed to HBOOT unlock and root my Wildfire S (GSM) and now I'm trying to find a stable ROM version.

Currently my phone has some pre-installed garbage from Vodafone like:

360 My Web

360 Shop

FaceBook

FaceBook for HTC Sense

Gmail

Google Maps

Music Shop

Peep

Qype

Since my phone is constantly full I decided to root my phone and install a custom or stock ROM. But my problem is I am not very familiar with all these different kinds of ROMs. I have done some research and I've come across the following ROMs:

Sense 2.1

CyanogenMod 7 (CM7.2 / CM7 NIGHTLY 2013)

CyanogenMod 9

CyanogenMod 10

CyanogenMod 10.1

I know there are plenty of threads with similar questions but they seem to be outdated to me and therefore I'd like to have some up-to-date info about this. I'm looking for a ROM with the least amount of bugs and possibly a little improved battery life. Currently thinking about Sense 2.1 or CyanogenMod 7.2 or CM7 Nightly 2013. I just want to install a clean ROM with Google Play and a few apps.

Could anyone help me? Thanks!
[HTC Wildfire S] jaco_lbn:
Hello. I flashed cm 10.1 to my gf's phone, but she seems not to be satisfited. I checked it than and it was pretty nice, some features might take a while but everything works fine after few seconds. Don't have much time for testing other roms, but as soon as possible ill let you know about progress. I hope my English is fine, apologizes otherwise :)

[HTC Wildfire S] dawnckr:
It sounds like you want CM7.2.

I have been testing different roms and all of them have some bug. I'm now down to two:

1. KitKat_CM7.2 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2525765

It is the only ROM I could achieve 2-3 days of battery life. Everything works, with every few bugs. It is very fast. Exactly what you are looking for.

2. Marvellous CM10 Reloaded http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2481155

This is Android 4.1.2 so it has more features, the interface is more polished, more apps work. It is fast enough for everyday use.

With any of them, you'll need to flash a Int2ExtV2 script after installation to trick the phone to use SD card instead of internal memory. Flash ROM, flash script, reboot, flash gapps. If you flash the gapps in the same session, your home button may not work.
[HTC Wildfire S] muscut:
Thanks for your input dawnckr! I'm currently using mod version: CyanogenMod-7-20120717-UNOFFICIAL-marvel with kernel version: 2.6.35.13eoghan-cryptomilk-alquez-r1-g0bb9087-dirty and I like it except the battery life.

Thanks for the tip on using the SD card as main storage, I've read some articles about it and yes I'm having the same lack of storage :). I think I will try out cm7.2 KitKat you were talking about and install everything in the right order.

Thanks again!
[HTC Wildfire S] muscut:
What apps would you recommend installing on my SD card? I have read that some apps might cause problems when installed in locations other than the internal memory.

The following apps I use regularly:

Google authenticator

Keypass

Youtube

Whatsapp

Gapps

Browser

Dropbox

Maybe some games when I have some storage left

Is it safe to say that all apps will work without any problems when installed on the SD card? I know the apps won't work when the phone is connected to the computer because the SD card will be used by the computer at that moment.
[HTC Wildfire S] dawnckr:
If you use CronMod-INT2EXTV+ , the phone will think it has very large internal memory. I had mine set to 2GB of internal storage. All apps will work. The down side is that you can't swap cards in and out - but if you use one fast and large card, you just leave it in the phone forever.

TO use Int2Ext, you need to format the card to two partitions 1) FAT32 2) Ext2 . You can do that from clockworkmode recovery or on a PC (microsd with adaptor plugged into the SD card slot). Download the script at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1716124 Flash the script from recovery (you'll need a fresh installation of your ROM).

For those wanting to upgrade to a newer 4.3 build, I have just flashed the Hong Kong MK3 rom which has a build date of 15th November and a higher change log than the India release

It's stock Samsung without any operator bloat. Am finding it very fast and smooth but as always it could be just be a placebo effect.

Flashed the latest version of TWRP and then rooted with Dr Ketan's Multi tool. Obviously the Knox trigger is now activated but that's not a concern to me.

Just tested some gaming with NFS - Most Wanted and is very smooth.

I can't access the dialing codes as I have removed factory test, LCD test, Bluetooth test etc from the rom and can't get the dialer codes to work.

Dear kersey

can you use KNOX application after the Root ?!

Already installed it , Arabic Languages with other is there , find some delay in rendering the lockscreen and homescreen if i pressed home button , will wipe again and test

not a lot of new features and the update looks weird , the mix between new icons and setting menu and old launcher seems to be odd but we can do nothing about it if you want to be the closest to stock experience :(
[Galaxy Note II General] kersey:
After rooting I de-bloated it all, got rid of Knox and most of the Samsung stuff including S-voice which I find helps with the response from lock screen to home screen.
[Galaxy Note II General] MohamedYousri:
So far every thing is working OK , installing my apps and will start using the ROM on daily basis

annoyed that i can't add Lock Screen widgets if i chooses to use Pattern or Pin for security also in 4.1.2 there was an option to get the Ripple effect screen before moving to the real Pattern or Lock Screen which is gone now :(
[Galaxy Note II General] MohamedYousri:
Is it only my device or after this update and using the device for while not at heavy tasks just facebook or whatsapp it gets a little bit warm :confused:
