So is it okay to flash it over jelly bean? I heard that once you go to an upgraded ROM it isn't that simple to downgrade it back.

No, you have to do a full wipe. Which is wipe data/factory reset and format system in recovery then you can have your gb rom back.

What should I do about the apps that are there? Titanium backup?

It's not safe to restore apps from different android versions. They might force close, install them fresh from the play store to be extra careful.
Happy flashing

What about the app data? Is it safe to restore it from the backup?

For some games it will work. But it is always better to do a fresh install, I guess restoring your levels in games wouldn't be a problem, Just don't restore important apps like root apps or something.

I'm not worried about the game data I'm worries about the messaging and call log.

Lol those aren't categorized in the apps data. Those do nothing if you restored them, use sms backup and restore, call log backup and restore. Trusted apps!
Again happy flashing

Can I ask why you are deciding to downgrade to GB?
Already did it. Just for a change. My phone was pre loaded with JB when I bought the phone so I'd never seen GB on this.
Now it is much faster and very good battery backup.

Yes the GB has a better battery life but I care more about the performance so I prefer JB and because it has many new features

I was impressed by the features in JB too but now that I'm back to GB for a while I gotta say I'm not missing it out THAT much.

I am trying to get my phone to stock condition. Unfortunately, Titanium Backup keeps asking me to hit "install" for EACH of the 75 apps that I am trying to install. I thought it was supposed to be semi-automated? Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Max
I sure would like a way to do this faster too - last time I restored to stock I had 95 apps to restore ....... one at a time.......

I figured out how to do it. The paid app works perfect. I'm cheap, but it was worth it for me.

If you are rooted and have Titanium Backup, simply freeze it.. I did when I first got my SR back in November and haven't had a problem.
I use bloat freezer free. Allows you to scroll through all apps and shows which are running( including system apps that are hidden) I freeze tethering manager to allow use if native AP app and freeze bloat

I'm having a problem with the first Verizon update. I have a rooted, unlocked GS3 running the stock ROM only slightly modified. I thought I had FWUpgrade frozen, but apparently not. I do not have the purchased version of TiB and I used multiple apps to try to freeze the system app. I thought it was a success, but obviously not. Now everytime I turn my phone on I am seeing what is shown in the first attachment. The second attachment is showing what TiB shows when I look at FWUpgrade. I don't know what to do and need some help on what plan of action to take! What are my options? I've been wanting to flash a custom ROM and considering most of those have FWUpgrade already frozen that would solve my issue... Thanks for the help!

Thanks so much for the fast reply!!! I do not have the paid version of TiB, so I just disabled it with Root Uninstaller and now it shows up as frozen in both RU and Ti. After taking it off of airplane mode, the update is no longer showing up!!! :good: Thanks again for the quick reply!!! You saved the day as far as I'm concerned!
No worries. Glad to help when I can.

I use Titanium Backup, but only for user apps and SMS, never for any system apps/data.

Yea I'm leaning towards that. Just seeing if there's a one button user app back up button that'll do the same. What does the jelly bean backup backup? Apps? I'm running sky jb

What he (or she!) said.
System Tuner Pro, Titanium Backup Pro Key and AppMonster Pro all work quite well. I'm partial to System tuner and AppMonster, as TiBu often hangs and needs to be FC'ed to keep the process moving.
