[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
You're close, firmware is completely independent from rom. You can flash any 4.3, 4.4, or 4.1 rom without changing your firmware.

Right now you can flash mf1 aio package, then ml1 modem, or just flash the ml1 modem over your current mb1 firmware.

Basically you aren't required to be on a specific rom build in order to use a specific modem.

Edit: I think you have the right idea, flash any rom you want, then the mf1 aio package, then the ml1 modem. Your firmware sequence is correct.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aholeinthewor1d:
ah ok...idk why I was thinking the firmware was what the ROMs were based from....so either way ML1 firmware sucks and I stay away...I guess my last questions are...what would be an advantage of going to the MF1 firmware...

and I always used clockworkmod recovery...do you know the option available now? and maybe some features of each
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sensamic:
So I've got this issue I never had before.

It started happening after I screwed something up with the EFS I think.

I was flashing some custom roms after the 4.3 official update and then tried to go back to 4.1 official.

Had the no network problem, but fixed it flashing the vodafone stock 4.3 official again.

Reading all the stuff about EFS confused me, and I deleted the EFS folder and copied an old backup (or so I think, because I'm not sure. I had a EFS backup on my sdcard and extsd I think).

I no longer have the no network issue, but everytime I flash a stock rom through Odin the phone gets stuck at the samsung logo, so I have to root the phone and install TWRP using Odin and then wipe. I know this way fixes this, but what I'm looking for is to fixed the problem completely so I don't have to install a custom recovery or root after using Odin to go back to official samsung rom.

Any ideas?

What should I do?

Maybe the phone gets stuck at the samsung logo because all of this EFS thing, but, like I said, I no longer have the no network issue.

All I want is for the phone to boot normally into the setup after flashing a samsung rom using Odin.

It just gets stuck every single time since I had this problem with the EFS, when before this never happened.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 枫叶の故事:
try to install the rom in recovery mode

I had this problem before (flash 4.1.2 in current 4.2.2 by odin), here's my solution.

Maybe you can install your ROM in recovery mode. (CWM based)

Remember to wipe completely before installing
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sensamic:
I can flash custom roms through TWRP, but what I'm looking for is to be able to do so again through Odin without ending up stuck at boot always and having to wipe through TWRP to be able to boot properly.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sensamic:
Any ideas?

I'm sure there must be a fix so I don't get stuck at the boot screen after flashing a samsung rom with Odin.

I know the trick wipe factory reset but what I really want is to simply avoid getting stuck at the boot screen after flashing a samsung rom with Odin.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KSKHH:
Factory reset is also available in default recovery as well, then what is the issue? Flash then boot to recovery do factory reset.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sensamic:
Thanks.

I'm just trying to find out why my SGS3 now gets stuck at boot when before it never happened.

I'm hoping there's a way to fix it and go back to before, when it never got stuck at boot. There should be a way I guess.

After every soft-reset, red LED keeps vibrating and flashing (without any notification on the screen). It is very annoying! Even when all notification/sounds/alarms etc are disabled and no calender appointments present, it goes on.

It disappears only after an activeSync connection or after receiving of a SMS.

Any idea???

hello guys, here i have some problem to connect with wifi after flashing a certain new ROM

when i try to connect, it always said, Obtaining IP adress.....authentication.....

this is happen to

- NeatRom (AOSP)

- Slimkat

- (long time ago with Supernexus)

well i dont have a problem connecting to Wifi with

- stock Rom

- temasek

- Archidroid

i have go through all the search topics, flashing WIFI-II9300 fix... do the terminal thing...set wifi region (Singapore, Europe, United Sate), flash boefella kernel.... still cant connect...

i hope all the master developer here can help me, and let me use the above ROM that i want to try....

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcarrmole:
I had the exact same experience with my wife's phone that I bought of ebay. I even flashed a variety of RIL's (radio interface layers) and different modems. I'd never had the problem with my SGS3 before, and have hundred of different roms on it.

Anyway it seemed to be a kernel issue and after trying ever combination possible I found that wifi would always work perfectly on any stock based rom or any CM based rom (assuming that hey used the CM kernel). It wouldn't even work on a CM rom if I flashed a different kernel such as Yank's, Boeffla or Googy.

Also at the time I trawled the net looking for answers and found one or two others that had the same issue, but could still use stock Sammy or CM. Strange... almost felt like it was an odd batch.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] normeck:
ahh... thankz for your feedback... really disappointed when you only can use only certain custom rom.... hope developers can look into this problem....

Hello everyone,

I'm looking for custom ROM which has default HDMI output set as 720p. Now I am using stock French rom (without knox) and my Mega hdmi output is 1080p/30Hz because my TV support FullHD resolution. It causes a lot of performance problems and practical usage is reduced. So I have question which ROM support 720p by default or has additional tv settings to change output resolution. I didn't find any solution to change tv output. I'll be glad for help.

Hi,

I realize this is an old thread, but doesn't adb sideload expect a zip file? All of my TWRP backups are folders containing 11 files of various sizes, I don't see a way to specify a zip backup, so what am I missing here?

In this case you would use adb push.

adb push "nameofbackupfolder" /sadcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/YOURSERIALNO"/"nameofbackupfolder

Can't wake up? Are you turning off your alarm before you're fully awake?

The Tilt Alarm is the perfect alarm clock for anyone that struggles to wake up in the morning. "It's almost like having someone right there to wake you up".

Our goal was to make "snoozing" easier than pulling the battery or force closing the alarm while still making sure the user wakes up. This goal led us to completely re-thinking the concept of snoozing. The current method of snoozing leads to lost time and grogginess in the morning. What we really want in the morning is the music off, and the reassurance that we'll make it out of bed in time.​

So how did we accomplish this?

When the alarm rings, the user has to tilt their phone almost perfectly vertical for a set amount of time (Tilt Time). The volume will fade as the phone is tilted and once the Tilt Time has been reached the alarm will end. If the user starts falling back to sleep, their hand will fall causing the Tilt Time to reset and the volume to increase.

We suggest starting with the default Tilt Time of 30 seconds if you're able to get a full nights sleep. If you've been up all night working or studying we suggest a longer tilt time such as 45 or even 60 seconds.​

Nice app and really great concept. But here are some suggestions to take this app to next level.

1. More detailed notification..something along the lines of "Next Tilt Alarm is set for 6:30 AM on Mon 17" OR "Xx hours xx minutes before next tilt alarm" (I like the first version better)

2. Multiple day (S,M,T...etc) alarm rather then me changing time every night.

3. Notification only shows xx hours before alarm is about to go off. (For instance if I set an alarm for 9:00 am and set notification to show up before 10 hours before then the notification will show up at 11:00 pm).

4. Tilt meter (Kinda like air bubble in leveling tool) when the alarm goes off so I know if I'm holding it right. And also a timer that shows how many more secs do I have to hold it.

5. Snooze/End button will show up after holding the phone correctly for xx amounts of secs.

6. Tutorial/Trail run as to how to turn off alarm on before first run/first setup of alarm. (This morning alarm went and I couldn't figure out how to turn off the alarm because I didn't read the description, which is bad on my part :p and I had to reboot)

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] maxschmelzer91:
Hey all, never posted on here before because I've had good luck with ROMS in the past but here goes.

Haven't rooted since the 4.3 update. Rooted the other day with cfautoroot. Everything went fine. Decided to try slimrom, so I installed TWRP 2.7.0, made a backup, ect. Went to install the ROM and it gave me errors. So I restored my backup. I had a hell of a time getting past the at&t screen but I finally got it to boot. The minute I unlocked, I was bombarded by "com.processes.gapps has unexpectedly quit" among every other app telling me it failed. So I got to the backup and restore and did a factory restore. Everything seemed to be normal. So I looked online for some information on the errors. Found a forum that indicated I was using a TWRP version that was too new. So I installed 2.6.1. Because I apparently enjoy being aggravated, I did the whole process over again. The same result happened. After more research I discovered that TWRP may have been the culprit along with ROM manager. So I installed Clockwork and did the whole process AGAIN! I got slimrom to install without problems. I was able to make a backup of slimrom as well. Just to be sure, I went and did a wipe in clockwork and tried to restore the backup I made of stock. Restarted, same error messages. Every second. Did a factory restore and everything was fine. So then I did a backup again and restored my backup of slimrom. It works fine! If I try to restore the backup of stock, I get errors. What's going on here!?

What I tried:

Clearing caches and data of the apps that were throwing errors

Stopping download manager and restarting it.

Clearing cache and delvik cache in CWM

In both cases Native tether app has been modded to work, and it works well without "Family Share Plan".

Be careful hot to go over your data limit.

They both have the option to stay mostly stock, however once you start playing with Venom Tweaks etc. it's hard to go back (IMHO). ;)

In the meantime, read the download instructions. Not to sound like an ass, but so many people are having issues because they don't READ the OP.
