Just rooted using the root 66 method. Worked great. Debloated a little bit but wanna try a custom Rom. I've read but can't seem to grasp how to flash roms yet. Can anyone offer some tips? Do you need adb or can you flash wherever ?
Edit mod please move this. I'm a moron who didn't pay attention sorry

Read the instructions on the rom you are flashing. Most times you use Clockworkmod Recovery i don't know if you go to clockworkmod with 3 button combo on galaxy S3 but yeah

But is there any extra step in flashing a kernel after the rom because the bootloader is locked?

If you want a kernel you have to use certain recoveries. So you can use kexec. There's more on that in original development.

Get ez-recovery, makes flashing different recoveries super easy. After flashing rom and setting up, go back to recovery and flash the kernal. That's what I did on synergy and imo's kernal. Beans v5 flashes it all at once. So far both run great with very good battery life.

Oh ok. So I just flash Rom then I'm good. On rezound you had to flash Rom, then the boot img. So it was two processes which is why I ask
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
Yup. You should give imo's kernal a shot, works great. Its a 2 step on synergy, but still no problem. Just passed my rezound down to the wife. And of course as soon as I did, seems like new roms started crawling out of the woodwork. I put viper res on it, now she wont let me try out any of the others, no fun.

If you flash any CM10 based ROM's you will have to do some extra steps. IMO you should just start off with Touch Wiz based ROMS so all you need to do is flash from your SD once and reboot.

I have an issue when I flash any Aosp rom. After initial install I have strong 4G but if I reboot phone for any reason I lose all data. My imei is there and phone number is there. I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong.

sounds like your on the fringe of strong lte coverage...the latest ril commits were suppose to help this. might try the latest pa or aokp build.
I'm on liquid rc5 right now and data is excellent. I haven't tried a reboot though. I'm wondering if it might make a difference if I reboot through recovery. Just a thought, maybe I'm just grabbing at straws, but this issue makes roms like paranoid kinda useless. Thanks for the reply.

i have been using paranoid since 2.13 and its been flawless when im in strong lte...never rebooted and lost data. if you toggle airplane mode on/off it wont come back?
Not sure, but I've never tried. I'm kinda new to this as this is my first rooted device, and im kinda learning as I go. I was on beans 13, then 14, but i can't resist trying out all these jb builds. I will give the airplane mode toggle a try. Thanks

I have the same issue with the new builds of JB ROMs. I do a clean wipe of everything and I flash the ROM, but when it boots in the beginning, I can sign into my gmail with data (even when I'm connected) and I have to use WiFi. Then when everything boots, I have no data and still connected to data (showing 3g) I do a reboot and it works for awhile and it goes out again. So I just went back to Beans14

I'm on liquid rc5 right now and everything seems to be working. But if I were to reboot my phone will not connect to data. The 4G icon pops up but never turns blue, and if I try Google Now or something else that requires a data it says no Internet connection. I have to be doing something wrong.?

Maybe shut the phone off, remove sim card, and turn on without the sim card then shut phone off and put sim card back and turn phone back on. That might help.

Ok cool ill give it a shot. I'm really hoping that it works. Because some of these pa builds are really nice, and I'd probably use liquid rc5 as a daily if I could reboot my phone and have a data come to back.

Hey man thanks. That actually worked, I'm not sure if my service is better but it came back after I shut down and did that procedure. I appreciate the help. I might actually be able to run one of those pa. Builds now.

i tried the same method as well too, but it didnt work for me. i dont know whats wrong, i think its just my phone because when i flash any AOSP rom, it doesnt connect to data after reboot. i do 3x wipes and what not but still nothing, my IMEI and phone number is all there so i dont know what it is. anyone have a idea??
So here is what I found by trying to stop battery drain caused by the media storage+heating etc. I Of course can't guarantee this working for everybody but I tried this with 2-different JellyBean ROM's twice and it worked all 4 times on my device :victory:
This will have a few Reboots so bare with me. (because I believe reboots make a difference)
For all of you who have a JellyBean ROM already installed and have the battery drain skip to Step.8
1. Download your JellyBean ROM of choice
2. Place on SD card
3. MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP of your current ROM
4. Wipe data, cache and dalvik cache
5. Select ROM of choice from the SD card (Most ROM's these days come with an Aroma-Installer so remember what you picked to be installed and what not.)
6. Boot device
7. Set up the phone and let it restore all apps. Set everything you will use (facebook, e-mail, flipboard etc) -then ReBoot
8. I used TitaniumBackup and removed "Media Storage" and I also removed "Downloads 4.1.1"
9. ReBoot into Recovery & wipe cache and dalvik cache
10.Dirty-Flash your ROM of choice which you chose @ Step.5 and chose the same features if possible.
11.Install your prefered Kernel optional (I personally chose Ktoosez 3.0.49 just because it gave me good battery life)
12.Wipe cache and dalvik the last time and also fix permissions.
13.ReBoot the last time and enjoy!
Hope this was helpful and will work for most of you early JellyBean users. :fingers-crossed:

Are you all letting the media storage run for a few hours before trying this? Mine ran for like 2 hours on the charger with power save on, then it started deepsleep and has been fine sense.
The reason. I believe, it makes clips for all your videos that play in thumbnail view in the gallery, and indexes and thumbnail all your pictures. It's normal

When you installed CR 4.0 what items did you select? I think it may have to do with what apps are installed more then anything else.
Basically, install the bare minimum and see if you still have problems. Maybe it is something is getting installed in your process that is causing the problem.
I would leave off "adfree" for sure as well as anything else that effects media.
Launcher: only install one launcher(TW. If you want to add apex or Nova do it from the market after. I am using Nova but from the market.
Samsung Apps: left them all off.
You can always add on after you fix the issue.

Newest jb synergy
Via my Google Galaxy S3 running magic beans
Hey everyone. I'm running the latest version of Synergy and I've been having some issues. First, every now and then my screen will freeze and the only way for me to correct it is by locking and unlocking my phone. Second, I noticed that after a reboot my battery percentage is no longer showing. I have to go into settings and uncheck and recheck the option to display battery percentage. Lastly, after I reboot I've noticed that my default input method (which is swiftkey) will be changed to the Samsung keyboard. Again, I have to go into settings and change that as well. Does anyone know of any fixes for these issues? I've reflashed synergy several times and I still have the same problems. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You should help out the community to get your 10 posts to post this in the synergy thread, but anyways I can help on some
For SwiftKey back it up with titanium Backup delete the app and then restore it, you won't have that problem anymore.
For the 1st one it really depends on the kernel you are running, you try various kernels in the original development section for this device.
As for the percentage I am unaware of that as I do mot run that rom.

Im curious you're original flash method. Can you describe what rom you were on before and how you got here? What in getting at was did you wrote data/cache/dalvik a couple of times each? Also have you tried redownloading the rom and clean flashing it?

I was stock before synergy. When you flashed this rim it gives you the option to do a superwipe. I did that plus I wipes cache/dalvik/and performed a factory reset before doing the superwipe. I'm not sure on how to get 10 points so that I can post this in the synergy thread.

You can always try since all phone play on kernels differently first try a 25 step and keep going up once you see the freezing stop, but keep in mind some kernels may not be for your phone so it's always good to experiment with other kernels to find your best battery and performance results.

Thanks for the suggestions. Where can I find other kernels? I'm going to play around with the ziggy kernel to see if I can fix the freezing.

Not possible.
You can root though, and disable system apps that could be causing you problems.
I'd download wakelock detector or better battery stats and look for wakelocks. Sometimes disable a few rogue apps could solve some problems.

Use the safestrap and install one of the modified versions of the 4.3 . I am having great battery life and good signal with old&slows version.
So safestrap is a custom rom? The last time I used a custom rom, my gs3 factory reset itself at random times at least once every few days.

That's usually from bad installation procedures and not wiping correctly.
Safestrap is a modified twrp recovery that allows you to load custom roms. You can load any 4.3 touchwiz rom in the development section with it. You shouldn't have those rebooting issues you did before, and it sounds like pretty much everything will run better for you then the stock rom you have now.

No, Safestrap makes slots for different roms. Your original rom remains untouched.
You're going to have to read up on it and understand what you're doing. Put a fair amount of research into it, it's not terribly difficult but it is a different process.

No, Safestrap makes slots for different roms. Your original rom remains untouched.
You're going to have to read up on it and understand what you're doing. Put a fair amount of research into it, it's not terribly difficult but it is a different process.

Ok, I read the safestrap thread by the user Hashcode. Is that the safestrap you're talking about?

I guess I'll assume it is...and I'm supposed to download a 4.3 ROM to go with it. So I'll get on it.
