What did you do? Take your sd card out and put it in the card reader on your pc. Download what ever ROM you want and put it on the root of your sd card. Then put the sd card back in the phone. If you are in the bootloader you should try getting into recovery. If you can then just do all wipes and flash the ROM you just put on there by installing from sd card.

Might have to transfer to internal storage...
1) But just flash like normal
2) Reboot (don't reboot recovery...you have to reboot system)
3)Will most likely get stuck at Samsung logo
4)Boot back into recovery
5)Reflash
That is the double flash method...

Yeah it wouldn't bring up my SD card in recovery, ended up just copying and pasting the files on a computer at work. He seemed very impressed with cm10 though.

Help! Phone not rebooting

I tried to install the kexec recovery and my phone is rebooting the whole time. It says installation aborted. What do I do?
Was able to flash the back to stock zip. Am I supposed to flash a rom first before I flash the kexec kernel?

How did u try to install the kexec recovery easiest way if your are rooted is download ez recovery from play store. Choose version 6 not not touch or twrp and flash recovery then reboot recovery u will then have successfully booted into a kexec recovery

So all I do is start ez recovery then cwm 6.x then reboot? Then I can flash a rom?

should be in clockworkmod/backup on either the internal storage or external sdcard depending on how you have it set up. The latter requires the card being formatted as FAT32 atm though.
Is there anyway I can switch it to external sd? It saved to my internal. Or will it save to external if I change it to fat32?

There should be a backup to external sdcard option in recovery that will work once the card is reformatted.
Sorry don't mean to be annoying, but if my card is fat32 it would have automatically saved there?

Not that I'm aware of. When you go into backup and recover in cwm there are multiple options. The standard backup or restore options go to internal. The ones labeled external go to the removable sdcard
And if it's not fat32 will it tell me it won't work?

Forgot the exact error but the first and second options for backup and restore are the only ones that work if it's exFAT.
Okay, also if I do backup from internal will that wipe everything on there if I wipe data? Kind of a stupid question but just want to make sure.

Part of the internal storage is labeled as sdcard and protected from the data wipe in cwm. Otherwise you'd be sol'd if you wiped data and then wanted to flash something. :laugh:
Haha yeah just wanted to make sure. Thanks a lot for answering my questions!

Use ez recovery for gs3. It makes things really simple. Make sure to get cwm 6.1.0 for k exec or else you will not be able to boot. And all ways back up your current ROM for safe flashing

Flashing Odin back to stock keeps failing
I got stuck in a bootloop and have been trying to flash back to the factory image from samsung-updates.com and it keeps failing. Im trying to find a different stock image to see if a different file will work. Any help would be appreciated
On the guide vzw gs3 edition there one step 3 go to the RootzWiki link and there is a revert back to stock image.

Thats not correct. If you got the firmweare with 4.2.2 on the phone you cant get back the old structure.
And then ? How i can get a new rom on the phone ?
The 4.2.2 recovery cant mount the storage
The only way is to push the flie with adb in recovery to the /sdcard/ location if you have cleared a storeges of your phone

OP stated he was on Maximus HD. To make this ROM run best you need to update the firmware to 4.2.2, which when installed repartitions the internal sdcard. With this firmware the only recovery usable is the modded twrp which does not mount. Any other recovery will not read the partition and only show 48mb. As stated earlier, to get files on/off the sdcard, since it can not mount, adb works while booted into recovery.
To get back the mount access, you will have to lose Maximus and downgrade the firmware

Cyanogenmod 11 stuck booting

First off, sorry if this isn't the right place for this thread. Yesterday my rooted gs3 running cm 11 started randomly turning off. This morning I got sick of it and formatted and wiped the phone. (factory reset, data & cache wipe) In clockwork recovery when I hit reboot now, it says I have lost my root and can select an option to root now. I hit yes, the phone boots to where it says Samsung Galaxy S III with the cyanogenmod theme. This is where it stays. If anyone can help that would be greatly appreciated.
Try flashing the ROM again

When the phone is connected to my pc there is no folder with my phones storage.
Can you put a ROM on an SD card?
You might have to use Odin to flash a stock image if you don't have an sdcard
