Unlocked bootloader - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Will flashing the unlocked bootloader ruin the phone if I try to Odin back to stock ? Maybe a dumb question but as I don't have ten posts yet I can't ask in the regular thread. Sorry:/

Yes it does belong in Q&A, but I mean themes is better than putting it in development. Don't be an ass/troll to the new guy. If you can't answer his question or at least attempt, you don't have to reply. The mods can handle the misplaced posts (even though they probably tire of it).

That's my bad I did mean to put it in the q and a. Mods can remove. I think you just need to flash the boot.IMG and the normal stock in Odin. Ha

AFAIK using Odin to go back to stock returns everything back to stock including bootloader. Or at least that's what I've read

I wasnt being an ass. I dont remember my new member restrictions. I thought that some forums may be locked to new members until the post count is reached.
I thought that the OP was posting in this section because he was unable to access the appropriate section. Thus, my comment.
I apologize if it came off as a **** comment. I was just encouraging productive posting. I really dotn know the answer, either lol.

Yeah i agree. This is the best community ive seen ever since joining xda in the TyTn II days. Lets keep it nice and friendly.
As for the OP im not quite sure about unlocking the bootloader as it is very new. I like to atleast wait a few days after thigs come out to be safe before flashing

Ok I'll be nice this time. You select Galaxy S 4G or whatever they call it once Krylon gets it working and approved by Koush.
Now close the thread. And LISTEN TO CHADSTER AND READ BEFORE POSTING A NEW THREAD OR YOU CAN GET TEMP BANNED!

Can we keep at least on cwm thread open?
This open and closing of CWM threads every other day is getting annoying. Kindda like wack-a-mole.
At least in keeping it open, there is one thread for people to ignore if they are annoyed by it.
How about a CWM thread when it actually gets released?
I don't see enough brain power here (including myself) to actually discuss something productive regarding CWM in its own thread prior to the release.
Hurry up and wait.

I agree. People keep opening up threads concerning on stuff that isn't currently working on our phones. Like Vibrant Roms and CWM. If they are ready to use. They would have been posted up already by the DEV or their Team.

imo just take a look at the threads and see whos really active in the forum and shoot them a PM. that would have solved the problem and to keep things like this from happening.
I would think that people will help a little more if the questions were asked through pm. Well, at least I know I would help. wishful thinking.
Now lets move on. Mods will close this thread and we can move forward.

New member here!
Quick question: Is there a way to turn the search button action in to 'recent apps'? With any possible ICS ROM. I know I can access it by long-pressing the home button, but I would find replacing search for recent apps more convenient as I switch between all my apps more than search.
Thanks for the hard work!

My apologies, but there's been like 10 of these posts either here in the dev section or in Q&A in the last week or two. Most of those posts are answered by linking another post. It's just getting redundant.

Thicken your skin and welcome to XDA
Not to encourage to keep asking in dev thread... but to answer your question.. I'd suggest restoring a nandroid first.. if you can't do that.. then Odin to stock. I'd suggest you use a firmware from Sammobile.com if you get stuck somewhere or don't understand. Shoot me a PM. I would More than be happy to help.

That is why the search function exists. Plus, it's still on the first page of the forum...no excuse.
Not only that, but the author of that article at Android Geeks needs to apologize for not giving credit where credit is do. Even if the original poster of the method here at XDA didn't come up with it (Maybe they did, I don't know) it should have still given a citation to the XDA thread.

And your intensions are good, but how many times does it need posted? especially when the original post is still on the front page. This forum has the search rule for a reason. Can you imagine if nobody took any time to look or search and just came here to post stuff over and over again?

New idea: use Kies instead of CM10.1?

I've been toying with the idea of just downloading the Samsung update of 4.1.2 instead of CM10.1. My Captivate is running CM10.1, but only because 2.3.5 was the latest version of Android available. Should I go with 4.1.2 just to see if I like it first? I really like CyanogenMod, but will I be just as happy with 4.1.2? Will I still be able to use Kies even though my phone is already rooted and CWM is installed? All thoughts are appreciated!

u can ask questions but you should do a little reading first lol
I've read both your posts in Q&A and sounds like your basically asking the the same thing like everyone has suggested you really need to read lots more before you wind up with expensive paper weight. I know because I've done it before when I started tinkering I thought I had read enough when in actually I read just enough to get in trouble and had no way out. So again when the more experience ones say read you might want to continue reading. Just my two cents
