yes there is another way if you have recovery installed. Just tell us what ROM you are on (your 4.1.2 ROM name) and try to find out if you have CWM recovery(volume up+home+power). Let us know this this then we will proceed.
@ASMI1 :He is on a 4.1.2 OS means he have a custom ROM and re-partioning is not mandatory because he is comming for a CM10 base.

Thanks for your reply

If you like the jelly bean 4.1.2 (CM10) by Dhiru, surely you'll like the CM10.1 version.
It is in here. Review it for more details.
You will need the latest CM10.1 in Dhiru1602's downloads and this gapps..
Download both on the SD card. Then, basically this will be the instructions to install it:
Code:
Upgrading from previous versions of CM10
1. Reboot to Recovery.
2. Select the ROM zip from your SD Card and flash.
3. Flash Google Apps.
4. Reboot
PD: By the way, you can use the Reboot -> Reboot to recovery option you've mentioned.

try to remove the rom zip from sdcard and copy it again from pc, this worked for me when I tried to install slim CM 7 by TheFrankenstain (here the thread if you wanted to try it..rom link here)(You rom is awesome TheFrankenstain...thank you)
If this didn't work then try to redownload the rom (don't use your phone to download roms...bad idea).
to make sure rom's archive is not corrupted, check you rom MD5 sum (Dev-Host server provide the correct MD5)
HashCheck is a good tool for this.

BE CAREFUL...You can only update to CM10.1 rom (or any other rom based on CM10.1) only if you have CM10 Alpha4 rom (or any other rom based on CM10 Alpha4)
But in your case (you have CM10 A3), you have to follow the whole guide mentioned in the second post.
This is what LoLaTiOn said:
How to install
Warning only for lasted base CM10 Alpha4
if older base CM10 Alpha3 Full KPE please !!!
- Wip Factory
- Format/system format/emmc
- Flash Carbon and gapps
- Reboot recovery
- Wipe cache and dalvik cache
Flash first clean for mandatory starting
On CM10 Alpha 3 and all other basic Froyo, Gingerbread, ICS, JB

thread here.
If you are worried about your data make full backup using recovery and you can restore your apps or your full rom at any time...clean Install is always recommended over updating from previous versions.
BTW...I think full Nandroid restore is dangerous due to different partitioning in ICS/JB roms so it's recommended always to reparation using odin and install full firmware again.
Also, any custom rom is rooted and deodexed and has CWM recovery pre-installed.
sorry for my bad english

it means that if you have a base older to CM10 Alpha 3 then you should proceed with full KPE,,,
so IF YOUR CURRENT ROM IS ON CM10 Alpha 3 I would suggest just flash CM10 Alpha4 base ROM by Dhiru then,
-Wipe Factory
- Format/system format/emmc
- Flash Carbon and gapps
- Reboot recovery
- Wipe cache and dalvik cache

No, to upgrade from previous version of CM10 follow this:
1. Reboot to Recovery.
2. Select the ROM zip from your SD Card and flash.
3. Flash Google Apps.
4. Reboot

here where to download CM10 A4 and google apps(20121011 for CyanogenMod 10.0.x) (thanks to master dhiru1602).
BTW, in the past we used to install XXKPE stock rom (pit, bootloader, PDA, Phone, and CSC)(this is what meant by full KPE) and then install DDLF2 as PDA in download mod. But now full DDLF2 is out so we don't need XXKPE anymore to make clean install, you just install full DDLF2 (pit, bootloader, PDA, Phone, and CSC) the same way you install XXKPE and then proceed with installing your custom rom.
it is recommended to make clean install always before installing any custom rom (CM or rom based on CM) to prevent any issue (installing custom rom over another custom rom may cause some problems like lags and no signal issue...etc) just make clean install.
I advise you to upgrade only if, for example; you want to update to REMICS rom and you have previous version of REMICS rom or you want to update to carbon rom and you have previous version of carbon rom or you want to update to CM10.1 A8 rom and you have previous version of CM10.1 A7 rom...Do you get my point?

[GUIDE][CM10/10.1/11] Update without getting the Status-7 errors

GUIDE: HOW TO INSTALL/UPDATE ROM WITHOUT STATUS 7 ERRORS
p.s this guide is totally noob friendly and to the best of what I could explain. But then again, I don't mind replying to kindergarten-noob level queries either.
Okay, this is for those who face these Status 7 Errors, don't panic, I found a partial-but-working fix. Your phone is not corrupted. Just follow these steps to get out:
Method 1:
1) You can simply quit Recovery Mode and go back to using your ROM as it is (that is only if you haven't Wiped Data).
2) Once you're phone's booted, download ROM Manager from the Play Store
3) Using USB Mass Storage, copy the ROM (zip) file to your internal drive.
4) Then (obviously) unplug/turn-off the USB Mass Storage mode and go to the ROM Manager app.
5) Click on Install ROM from SD Card (which means internal over here, idk why) and select the ROM. Ignore step 6 if you don't want to backup.
6) This is optional, but if you wish to come back to this ROM later click on Backup
7) Click on wipe-data if you're upgrading to another ROM (from CM10.1>CM10.2 or CM10.2>CM11) or ignore this step if you're flashing a new build (nightly/alpha)
8) The ROM will be flashed and you're good to go. If you're upgrading to a new nightly/alpha build, ignore step 8.
ONLY IF YOU'RE UPDATING TO ANOTHER ROM:
Just before the bootanimation, be ready to take out your battery and go to recovery mod with the combo keys (Volume Up+Power) and flash Gapps. (Preferably from this)
Method 2:
1) You can simply quit Recovery Mode and go back to using your ROM as it is (that is only if you haven't Wiped Data).
2) Once you're phone's booted, download ROM Manager from the Play Store
3) Using USB Mass Storage, copy the ROM (zip) file to your internal drive.
4) Reboot to Recovery
5) Flash the zip and reboot to recovery, again, and flash Gapps. (Preferably from this)
Oh and make sure to go to this thread and thank them for the gapps

Reserved. Will post some later

Normally this problem is rather easy to solve
1: If you have the error at the beginning of flash you need to do a factory reset wip
2: If the error appears when the symlink you need to format the system
the gapps and other files. sh are the cause of this problem
Remember that the i9003 can only use 230 mb clean flash
if you do not do a full wip factory and format system welcome to STATUS 7 ERRORS MouHaHa ?§!
if you change rom author does not expect to keep your data!

Really good tutorials by both of u...:good:

If you are using TWRP, Open Updater application or Launch From Settings/About Phone/System updates, from options(top right corner), select Choose Update Package, locate the OTA.zip file. Wait for Updater to finish the job, phone will reboot to recovery & then to updated version.
Also, if you are on twrp or any other recovery, you can update as follows:
reboot to recovery and flash ota.zip, wipe cache & dalvik, reboot.
1) MiUi7_v5.10.15 to 5.10.22_OTA
2) MiUi7_v5.10.22 to 5.10.29_OTA

U must be on twrp to update in the mentioned way. If u r on any other recovery, flash as a normal zip from recovery.

I have successfully downgraded from Pie to Oreo G965F (Custom Rom)

Hello, I will try to be very fast & clear with this:
It's a custom 8.0 Oreo rom works with Pie bootloader (U6CSGD) , thanks to @yash92duster for his amazing work.
So how? PLEASE READ THE COMPLETE TOPIC FIRST!!
1- Installed TWRP from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...cross-device-development/twrp-exynos-t3763464 (DO AN EFS BACKUP WITH TWRP JUST INCASE)
2- Installed TeamExyKings' LightRom from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ross-device-development/rom-lightrom-t3770243
3- I just downloaded the LightRom (Not AddOns) and flashed it wia TWRP (Read Step 4 before installing!).
Installation instructions from topic:
*In TWRP Recovery Format The Following:
--"Internal, System, Dalvik/ART, Cache"
*Flash ROM Zip
*Reboot And Enjoy The ROM
*** It May Take A While For ROM to Boot, So wait patiently ***​
YOU CAN MOVE THE ROM TO DEVICE AFTER FORMAT OR YOU CAN SIMPLY INSTALL FROM EXT SD CARD
4- Instal TTS if you want to add accessibility services such as (Bixby remapper/Navigation bar gestures)
- If you choose anything about bixby remapping while installing the rom you can't change it after installing even with remapper (or Idk how )
- Choose Samsung keyboard if you want to use UPSM.
- I Chose TGB kernel and have no idea about the stock kernel and how it works but TGB works without problems.
- Choose ''Netflix fix' 'if you want to use Netflix. Then, install this version: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/netflix-inc/netflix/netflix-6-26-1-build-15-31696-release/
BONUS
Idan's GCam 4.1: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78101115&postcount=164

Well, first of all: ''do this at your own risk, your warranty will be voided! and you wont be able to use Samsung pay, Samsung Pass, Knox, Secure Folder (I think there are some ways for this but dont know how)''.
1- BACKUP ALL YOUR FILES (PHOTOS, DOCUMENTS) AND BACKUP THINGS LIKE WHATSAPP TO GOOGLE DRIVE! I MEAN BACKUP EVERYTHING! Because everything in your phone will be deleted!
2- Download this ROM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ross-device-development/rom-lightrom-t3770243 or just download from this link: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117939052 (Tell me if it's slow, I will try to upload it to my Google Drive)
2- Install TWRP from here but remember to read all steps BEFORE YOU START!! https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...cross-device-development/twrp-exynos-t3763464
3- Once you installed TWRP turn off your phone and reboot into TWRP by pressing [VOLUME UP] + [BIXBY] + [POWER].
4- Select "Keep /system RO" as usual.
5- Go to "Wipe" menu of TWRP -> Advanced Wipe. Select ''Dalvik / ART Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, Cache'' and Wipe.
6- Connect your phone to PC and copy the ROM to internal storage (similar to how you transfer files when in system).
7- After copying the ROM to your phone, from TWRP go back to main menu then go to ''Install'' and flash your ROM.
8- Once you press Install Zip, Aroma Installer will be started I mentioned things I did in the post you can check them.
If you didn't get any part feel free to ask and mention which part yo didn't understand or you couldn't do it, from here or DM, wont matter.
Hope this helps you

Do I have to wipe internal storage for the ROM to work or can I just skip the internal storage ?

I'm not sure but it's better to do a clean install. You can give it a try but I don't recommend it.

Download link please
The Rom download link/mirrors are down. you have the drive link handy?
