best solution that works for me is, flash Sammy ICS, then upgrade to 4.3 via OTA

Then flash any 4.3 custom rom as per your choice.

V3 installation method

I am almost sure it was answered somewhere before but I couldn't find a clear answer.

When installing V3 I noticed in the Aroma screen that it performs some wipes. Are those enough or should I perform some wipes myself before starting the flash.

If yes which ones?

Is wiping of sdcard might add smoothness and make the rom faster (I am experiencing some lags)?

Brother Yousaf,,

I am little noobish when comes to Samsung.. this was my first Flash Ever.. that also for my uncle.. I messed his phone.. and I am in trouble now.. and under a lot of stress.. I have been flashing Xperia for last 3 years.. no problem at all.. but this was my first Sammy :(

Plz guide me again..

Right Now.. I am On 4.3 from Sammobile.com for UAE XSG Version.

My Phone is rooted. but the Recovery is not the same as CWM. it is some different recovery.

What should I do from here.. plz Guide me to get Network back somehow plz. plz explain me step by step.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jojohnson250:
OK mate just relax and firstly download rom manager from Google play and this should have option to flash Cwm OK flash that then flash the modem file each Ricky has uploaded via CWM and that's it!

My "thanks button" hit was mistake! Maaaan...

Just flash cwm recovery (how to do it, find on YouTube yourself). After that try flash ricky 's flashable zip (comment above). Or flash official firmware from sammobile.com. Everything is in YouTube or here on xda.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] saqibkhan:
ok brothers.. thanks a lot..

my current status is.. I have CWM Recovery.. I have Root..i am on SammyMobile.com Firmware for UAE I9300XXUGNB6_I9300OJVGNB3_XSG.zip .. its 4.3 ! ( I have also tried to flash all 4 on Revolutionary ROM but no result)

I have flashed the EFSv2 Flashable Baseband file from yousaf.. and I have tried all 4 basebands from that.. but No Reception..

my IMEI is 0049**********/01 .. I have Signal Bars. I can detect my Network Provider (Etisalat).. when I click.. it momentarily says.. Registered to Network.. but it only says "Emergency Calls Only"

It sounds like your efs maybe corrupt if none of the suggested methods work look on you phone storage for a efs backup ricky310711 default setting in aroma backs up your efs.If you didn't change the setting in aroma you should find a backup on sd card flashback with odin to your original rom version then restore the backup from your sd card this should restore your signal.;)

I was coming from ICS 4.04 and I don't remember which version it was..like exactly which Code/COuntry.. must be UAE.. Maybe..

and yes.. I have MG_EFS folders in my sd card.. one is in the /SdCard/MG_EFS and the other is /SDCARD/0/MG_EFS

from where do I restore.. and how to restore these folders .. I have tried sooooooooo many things.. if you could plz direct me to it.. what I did was is below..

1. I was on ICS 4.0.4

2. I thot to upgrade to 4.3 (make it faster for my Uncle) .. so I googled and found this.. http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/galaxy-s3-i9300-updated-android-4-4-2-kitkat-revolutionary-s5-rom-1446594

I don't knw why but it mentions 4.4.2 .. so I followed the Guide to the Letter... I don't know who the Stupid lady made the Guide.. theis nothing about EFS at all.

3. no signal problem showed up.. so I thought.. maybe a Stock 4.3 would Help.. so I download UAE XSG version.. flashed.. rooted etc.. Didn't work.. then I downloaded the UAE LYS version 4.3 .. Rooted etc.. nope didn't work.

4. then I started working with all the different modem patches.. Baseband patches.. etc.. then I downgraded to 4.1.1 and Installed MIUI Rom v5 .. I thought that would fix it.. Nope it didn't fix.. then I downgraded to ICS again.. that didn't fix it.. then again came back to 4.3..

Edit : right now I am downloading this 4.2.2 and trying this Solution http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7K6RDVRBhs

Look brother,

I'm assuming you have??

1. Samsung Andorid USB Driver installed in your pc

2. Odin and know how to use it

Download latest stock Samsung ROM for YOUR region (this will be a JB 4.3)

I always go to www.samsung-updates for samsung roms.

ROOT your phone.

Install the latest CWM via Odin (the best way)

I always use Odin to flash CWM.

Download the latest one from here (credits to jamal2367

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2548978&d=1391100575

install via Odin

There you have the latest CWM version 6.0.4.7 which can also be used to install revolution s5 rom.

Note: Upon installing the JB 4.3 stock rom, you will have 0049 IMEI and no network:

That's when you need to flash the EFS v2 file.

Then you will see your IMEI and wait until you get network!

Try it! Boa sorte!

##### As long as you don't have YELLOW TEXT on home screen called factory mode, it is not a serious issue.

Initially I wanted to make the rom really really slim by NOT installing the bloat..like 10 times already, but :

1. Google account gives sync error

2. WhatsApp keeps coming back to sign in again ..in other words FC.

Until I flashed the bloat..then no above issues and all working fine! :)

If this is not an isolated case of mine and everybody else are facing same issues..I guess it's best to include the bloat in the rom in order not to confuse others.

Just my $0.02

i don't know why but my phone very slow and lagy after flash (and reflash) V3 with full wipe. i try with Boeffla kernel but the same.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] yusuf_adsas:
I dunno your definition of 'slow' and 'laggy' coz it might be tolerable for others. It is true that it's just a microsecond slower than a stock rom at the moment, at least for me..but it's downloading speed is amazing vis a vis other roms ceteris paribus with network provider.

If you think you've done everything right then try factory reset and set all 3 animations to OFF in the settings/more/developer options.

See if that improves.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] romano19:
when I touch the screen, the response is very slow. Access the Settings or an app also take more time. I also tried to turn off animation effects in Developer, but the situation is not better.:(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] yusuf_adsas:
Hooah

I had that issue once.

if I were you I'd make sure I have all the right ingredients once again, latest CWM or philztouch, reflash the rom again.

or head over to post #3014 by cyrusavirus allthough I dont use philztouch nor titanium backup.

If possible with the exact name, because last install I probably took the wrong mod and system was very lagging.

One more thing, is the AccuWeather widget the one where I can choose the transparency within the widget?

And is it automatically flashed with Rom or do I have to flash it over bloatware installer?

Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] jagodic95:
I know reason of delay, they said day, or two, it pass more than that and they didnt say anything. Ive just asked becouse I cant wait anynore for this great ROM. Didnt mean to be rude.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lossadax:
Before you make an update with pure themes effect ( which are awesome btw) please fix some core buggs like android.process.core due to contacts glitch , not being able to install whatsapp the normal way , losing root after installing it ( critical for me since my volume up buttom doesnt work). You guys did amazing with the theme , but these are things that cant go overlook and people cant go saying "search the forum theres a workaround" , those workaround are for when you didnt notice the glitch but it has been long enough and its getting annoying everytime i wipe.

Only way i got whatsapp working was installing another rom and backing it up with titanium as a zip then installing it before booting this rom which is really depressing. And yes i did full wipes and stuff.\

EDIT: Also after several wipes and installs the rom tool still doesnt show up =/

EDIT2: Cant get whatsapp to work and cant get rid of the android.process.core . Switching to another rom till this gets fixed
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jojohnson250:
Right there will always be bugs but they are always fixed but if you can't wait you should just stick to using stock, you are getting this rom for free, you have no right to demand anything from the Dev
[Galaxy S III Android Development] E.Vogel:
It seems that there is an issue with the file system in your phone, and you are stuck with leftover files from previous installations.

Try mounting and formatting your sdcard.

If it doesn't help, try flashing a 3 part stock rom with Odin.

Ricky addressed a similar bug earlier in the thread, use search to find it.

p.s. you can always change rom
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ricky Divjakovski:
correct, the whatsapp but also happens on few other roms aswell, the acore crash bug is yet to be known but im sure its something to do with a few services that need to be updated because after updating apps on playstore the error no longer occurs, so thats my solution for V4!

as for whatsapp there is a solution posted by a user!

WHATSAPP FIX

1 . force stop whatsapp, clear whatsapp data and cache and uninstall

2 . reboot into recovery and wipe dalvik cache

3 . install whatsapp from playstore

If you mean you bricked it after installing this rom well...you shouldn't have LOL

You need to go back to installing a stock samsung rom anew (just google it) and start again.

If you're planning on installing a custom rom you need to read the OP carefully and you'll be fine and dandy
[Galaxy S III Android Development] romano19:
Tks you. After reinstalling follow your help. I've seen better. And I think that error because I used TB to restore apps and data

It is always recommended to install apps fresh in any custom rom...we all know that.

For the record I use Appbackup and restore (it's in playstore) and reinstalled my apps from there with no issues.

Expecting Great Things from you guys

I have never used 240 DPI. After much thought I went for it. Man, my phone looks a lot neat now.:cowboy: After playing around, I switched back to 320 but I didn't like it. Gonna stay in 240 for a looooong time I believe.

Few things though,

1) Some 4x2 widgets looks odd in 240 DPI and coudn't make it occupy the entire width of the phone.and i couldn't re size also. (eg.accu weather widget) Anything can be done about it? Fine even if nothing can be done. But still..just wanted to tell.

2) And also the phone lags once in a while just after unlocking.
