Noob question

I'm new to Samsung and was wondering how to tell if your bootloader is unlocked? Also what do you hold down to get into it? On my HTC rezound all you did was hold power and volume down.
Thanks in advance!

Galaxy SIII's bootloader is locked until you unlock it. And I don't know what you mean "get into it" The way I understand is that the bootloader is just a script that runs when you turn your phone on.
Yeah I ran the script and just wanted to verify it was successful.

I'm pretty sure he's talking about bootloader mode. But I honestly don't know if our phone has that or not. Anyway. You should download an app from the play store called EZ Unlock. It takes like a nanosecond to unlock your bootloader (literally). Once you do that you should be able to flash non kexec kernels. Like Scotts CleanKernel.

Never use the stock option to factory reset (through privacy menu or stock recovery) while you're rooted!!!!
Reroot using the method you used before, that should fix it (your phone is actually not rooted it just thinks it is)

So the first one would be : do you use anything to boost your earphones sound and if yes then what?
Sent from my ST26i using xda app-developers app
Hahah All the sony handset have this problem! In real its good for our ears! And no application can boost ur earphone volume! Just get some good original headphone from sony..
Sent from my ST26i using xda app-developers app
Yeah... Right now I'm using viper4android and it just seems to boost it a bit but I heard that acid works better anyway I have stumbled upon a thread on how to install cwm for locked bootloader, but you have to downgrade back to ics and only then you can have it. So i would like to ask do you really need to clean something before downgrade, because I heard that if you don't you get a bootloop.
Sent from my ST26i using xda app-developers app
Yeah you must clear ur dalvik cache and yeah you can unlock ur bootloader to get the most from ur phone i sent u a message...Read ur PMs....
