rooting related issues

Hey guys, finally joined the forum after reading/lurking for a few weeks

Hope someone can give me a little advice

I've been searching for answers, but majority of the info is for american phones (and mine is canadian)

- 2 weeks ago i flashed my phone (Canadian Rogers S3) with a 'canadian' method (stock rom with root) i found a video and zip for on youtube [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGWcuVIhkBA[/YOUTUBE], seemed to work good.

Then last week i found the thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1739426

and decided to try that flash since it was Rogers specific (and the previous flash i used just said 'canadian' phones).

So i flashed with the Rogers file. The phone has started acting up (random freezing and random apps freezing/crashing; the freezing/crashing is getting progressively worse - should i have wiped the phone in between flashes? cus i didnt. I guess i my reasoning was that teh ROMs weren't 'really' custom, as they were just the stock ROM with root access...maybe i assumed wrong?

- any suggestions how to proceed from this point? not sure if i need to do a factory reset and reflash the ROM (from the thread i posted), or how to proceed. I have made a back up with titanium back-up, but have not reset, deleted anything, or tried to reflash, yet

-if i wanted to go back to a complete stock ROM (no root) what do i need to do? I know there was a recovery image (recovery.img) in the zip file (from the thread i linked above), but what do i do with it and what do i need to do on the phone i see alot of info for american phones, but not canadian

any help/ advice would be greatly appreciated! cus the phone has become unstable, and i am not sure why (or what to do). sorry for the noob questions, i've spent alot of time reading threads that seem to be similar, but then someone always makes the comment "well not sure if that applies to canadian s3"

sigh

Thanks in advance!

Need guidance on Samsung Galaxy 3 i5801 Factory Reset

Hi, I am using Samsung Galaxy 3 (i5801) from past 2 years. Recently I am started experiencing memory bloat issue. I have only 30 apps installed and still I have only 20MB internal memory left. I tried clearing all unnecessary data from Application section in Settings. I also moved few apps to SD card. Still there is not increase in free internal memory. Due to this my phone's performance has drastically reduced and m quite frustrated with it :eek: :(

I am thinking to do a factory reset now to get back my internal memory. Can anyone suggest how much will this help in resolving the issue. Also can anyone tell me what data I will lose if I go for a factory reset. Will I lose all the apps (including Google Play, YouTube, Calculator,All Share, etc which came pre installed when I bought the phone)??? :confused:

Kindly let me know if any other way exists to resolve my problem.

Thanks in advance....

custom cm7 or still samsung official froyo....

you have to know ly one thing...factory reset can wipe data's that is installed by you or updated by you...it cant delete system apps..which came with your rom....but it will delete all your installed apps...so if you think about factory reset you should think about backing up your apps,contacts,etc...

if you need some more internal memory you can delete unnecessary system apps and unwanted ringtones,using with root explorer....and one more thing, if you think about deleting system apps...you should not delete some apps.....i hope this link will help you...http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1487073

Unfortunately, I have been dealing with the software update popup for a while now and can no longer take the annoyance of the popup and interrupting a text message or something else I'm doing on the phone.

Search. Check the ROM threads, there's your working/non-working list of stuff. When I entered SGS forum, the first thing I did was searching, searching and again searching.

If you wanna know which kernel is best for CM7, try them yourself and decide. But kernels which supports CM7 MTD are 2. The default 800MHz one and 1000MHz one. And no, there are no NON-OC kernels for it.

This phone has 4.2.2. Y U NO SEARCH? :rolleyes: :p But it is really unstable.

If you want it so much, learn C, C++ and whatever else you need to port Android with, and finish it yourself. Otherwise keep calm and wait till it's finished. No ETAs for devs. They are doing it in their free time. It's kinda difficult to port new Android to a device with bad sources and weak hardware.
