Help with Kexec for SGS3 - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

To whoever can help me -- I'm trying to use kexec to install CM10 on my SGS3, but i've been hearing that when you hard-reboot your phone, AKA battery pull/death, or using the power button, you go right back to the recovery. This isn't a problem, as long as I don't have to re-flash CM10 every time I boot, or I have no choice but to go to the stock ROM. I'd like to be able to either boot to the CM10 or go to my currently flashed version of CM10 from the recovery.
Any clarification on how kexec works on the SGS3 or any advice might help.
Thanks!

Bumping... could really use help here.

Just reboot from recovery and it will bootloop a couple times then boot up.

Flash a recovery that supports kexec. You'll find this in the OP of the CM10 threads. Then make a backup, wipe data/cache, flash CM10, and flash Gapps, reboot. When your phone boots, it will appear to bootloop once or twice. Ignore it and give it a few minutes, longer after a new flash. Expect that every time. Once in a while, a cold boot may boot you into recovery. In recover, just tell it to reboot and you'll be back in CM10. That's all there is to it, for an end user. It won't force you to go back to stock, and you don't have to flash anything every boot.
You may have heard conflicting information from outdated threads. Before some smart cookies automated the kexec process, you had to do some manual flashing every reboot. This is no longer the case.

not necessarily...if your flashing a custom rom/kernel like beans custom stock, cm10, paranoidandroid, aokp, or imosyeons Touchwiz leankernel, kexec is always there...kexec is built into the kernel, cwm 6.0.1 is compatible with kexec.

Question though. Could cwm touch be modified to make it kexec enabled?

I used cwm touch for the very first kexec kernel release(boosted v.1 https://www.dropbox.com/sh/mv3gz6skad1nsnx/-oUr708Bc2), where you had to reflash the emmc in recovery on each reboot in order to stay on the custom kernel. Not sure if cwm touch works for the later kexec builds...

What methode did you use to unlock it? I'm running the stock no nonsense rom and I belive unlocked with no problems
Do other roms boot? Will the newest CM10 nightly boot? Will anything boot?
Did you flash a different recovery? If you were using kexec roms before (beans is one, so is synergy with imo's kernel) and then flashed a non-kexec-supporting recovery, that'd explain not being able to boot. If you're unlocked, you don't have to flash a new recovery.
If you did the unlock correctly, you should be able to boot whatever you were able to before. If you can't get anything at all to boot, it's possible you flashed a bad aboot image.

I think it's because I used CWM 5.x rather than 6.x. Phone isn't recongized by PC, no idea why. Any idae how to get 6.x using the terminal app in CM10 and wifi?

Yep, that's exactly the problem. You installed a non-kexec recovery and your roms still use kexec.
You're sure you selected the right options in EZ recovery? Open it, scroll to the recovery pane, select the "recovery" radio button, change the drop down menu next to it to CWM 6.0.1.0, click the "Flash!" button. That should let you install whatever roms or kernels you like.

Being unlocked shouldn't have any impact on being able to flash using ez-recovery. One thing you can try is use EZ-Recovery to flash stock recovery, odin back to the stock verizon image which should relock the bootloader and start all over.

Why do you need to flash stock recovery to use Odin to flash stock Verizon rom? Odin has nothing to do with what recovery you have installed. I flashed stock unrooted rom while rooted and having CWM recovery, it worked just fine. Once you flash stock rom, it restores the stock recovery too anyway. I'm fairly sure of this, but if I'm wrong, please correct me anybody.

Just to be safe. Wanted to get rid of the sprint related elements from the original root so I Odin'd back to stock with cwm installed using the VRALF2 tar found here. Tried to boot into recovery to factory reset prior to first boot and had 0 recovery (not stock nor cwm). Luckily the rom booted and I used the simple root method to root and install EZ-Recovery to install CWM.
If I flashed synergy v1.7 and used rom manager v5.x.x and then unlocked the boot loader how would I flash a new rom? Do I have to use ez recovery with clockwork mod v6.x.x since it is now unlocked or can I continue using rom manager with clockwork mod 5.x.x. I'm a noob and won't be looking to switch roms until synergy gets jellybean. Thanks for the help and hopefully I made sense with my question
synergy to beans to synergy bootloop
I think my issue might be related to the issues stated above.
So after after having unlocked my bootloader with EZ unlock & installing beans custom Rom via TWRP , I decided to go back to synergy. I made a nandroid of my synergy which was origianlly installed with CWM and figured I could just wipe and restore that with TWRP. Total bootloop.
OK, so I pulled the battery, tried it again...bootloop.
SO I pulled the battery, wiped and installed the synergy zip thinking I could try a fresh install. I got a message in TWRP that E:sd-ext was not found, but wipe seemed to happen so I continued the process.
installation said it was successful but now when I try to boot up, I either get stuck in the android is upgrading applications (looping over and over) or it gets through there and tells me all teh com.android.xxxx applications unexpectedly stop.
is this a soft brick? can I recover from this? are there incompatibilities between the kernels of bean's custom rom and synergy for verizon samsung galaxy s3?

after unlocking phone wont boot

after unlocking thru the ez tool installed twr recovery and installed the synergy rom and its just stuck on samsung galaxy s logo please help what do i do?

Sounds like an bootloop, just odin back to stock and try again.
If you remove the battery and turn it back on, will it boot into recovery?

I don't think they work with TWRP. They will flash fine but they wont boot. I had the same problem as the OP when i flashed them. I guessing its because they aren't setup for unlocked phones yet. OP all you need to do is wipe using TWRP then flash the cyanogen mod 10 leak posted by CVPS. Make sure you flash gapps and you will be good to go.
Locked or unlocked phone shouldn't matter as far as the Rom is concerned, it's been stated many times that the kexec kernels will boot fine on an unlocked phone. I would suggest starting fresh, stock ODIN, root, unlock, then flash CWM 6.0.1.0 with ez recovery and go from there.
Some people are not having any issues with the touch recoveries and others are, in my experience the CWM recovery has been the most stable and I could really care less about "touching" my recovery, buttons do the same thing. Just my 0.02

1-grab a stock image...chose anyone you want in these forums..some are even prerooted.....i personally got competely back to stock
2-i use the one click root method..so root
3-flash cmw...any version you want as long as it is made for your model phone.....you can use e-z recovery app from market
4-MAKE A ****ING BACKUP!!! very important...
5-download e-z unlock from the play market..use...and done..now you are stock, rooted, unlock bootloader......if you plan on flashing cm10 or aokp or aosp....please make sure to read the thread "how to backup your imei" before flashing any of those roms.............boom goes the dynamite:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:.............................

Kexec roms don't but synergy should have. I use twrp and Synergy no problem. There isn't anything special that has to be setup for an unlocked bootloader.
Op you should be able to flash any non kexec rom. Did you do a wipe factory reset? If not you may want to give that a try

You can't update to cm9 and stay on 5.0.
Unlike most samsung phones, we do not have a functional recovery partition.
Even though we do have a recovery partition, and you can flash the recovery.img there, the bootloader will not even notice it.
It will just boot the kernel with the kernel command line argument: bootmode=2
In this mode, a stage1 init has to check if we are booting to: recovery, low power mode (charging), or normal boot (possibly with ota upgrade).
So in a nut shell, you upgrade to cm9, you get whatever recovery comes with cm9.
If you want to flash another cm9/ics based rom after that, just flash it (factory reset/wipe data, of course!). No need to go back to 5.0 recovery.
If however, your IMEI is screwed up or you have a specific reason to go back to gingerbread, use the oneclick that eollie mentioned. Flash it twice to get bootloaders. And then you can go back to cm9 by just 'factory reset/wipe data' and flash cm9 or whatever ics rom you wish.

Cannot flash new kernel

Hi xda. I just installed (flashed) cyanogenmod 9 on my nexus s, after getting bored with the stock kernel so I flashed trinity ics kernel. Now when I try and flash a new kernel nothing changes, cwm recovery said it flashed successfully. The procedure I did when I installed it was:
1) install zip from SD card
2) choose zip
3) yes
4) reboot system
Is there anything I did wrong? Do i need to clean the cache and dalvik cache?
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
How are confirming that it did not flash?
Clockwork recovery said it was successfully installed. Also the version of the kernels are right for my rom (ics)
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
You missed understood me.
How are you checking/confirming that the kernels you flashed after trinity are not actually flashing/ booting/being used or how ever you want to phrase it?
cm changed their ramdisk(again). so now custom kernels without cm ramdisk wont boot cm. as always, cm likes to "break" things. complain to cm. i recommend other non cm based roms, like rasbean jelly. it doesnt have as much junk included and is a faster/smoother experience than cm. many kernel developers arent willing to cater to cm anymore because of these changes they constantly make. enough is enough.
Im with you Simms but I think this one is a case of him seeing the boot animation of Trinity and thinking it is still the kernel.

ah, ok. i reread the op very slowly.
op, did you check the kernel version in your about phone? other kernels wont get rid of the boot animation unless they offer a boot animation or include a script to delete it.
Yeah. But he is saying he doesn't see a change. Implying the phone boots up as it did prior.
He is also on cm9 , not the new cm10 that botched things up again.
That is why I am trying to get him to confirm how he is checking if the kernel changed. Almost certain its the op just seeing the boot animation and thinking that it didn't change due to that.
Op. Go to settings /about phone and look at kernel version. Flash a different kernel again. Check again.
I am confirming that it did not flash by going to settings and then about phone. In kernel it still says Trinity kernel rather that matrix kernel or air kernel (2 roms I've tried flashing).

I am using Clockworkmod Recovery version 6.0.1.0. Would you suggest flashing a new rom, I am considering that as a last resort. Also I am fairly new to rooting and things like that so I do not know a great deal about ramdisks etc.
I would try to flash a kernel with twrp first. I am not a fan of cwm recovery myself and don't trust it.
If that's a no go. Try a different ICS ROM if that's what you want. Or jb etc.
Still find it odd that recovery says it flashes but it doesn't. Usually as Simms was saying the phone doesn't boot with strange kernel behavior/ incompatibility. Honestly not sure what exactly what is causing it. So just use process of elimination to try and sort it out.
Maybe Simms knows of or heard of this type of behavior before and can provide some info.

You can flash my cm compatible kernel.
Make a backup of your current setup in cwm recovery. Then format /boot under mounts and storage to wipe your current kernel. Then flash new kernel and reboot. Even if this gives you an issue, you have a current backup that can be restored.
