Can I flash S4's stock Android rom to my S3? - General Questions and Answers

Hi everybody,
This is my first thread in XDA Developers website, I'm an Android developer and I love stock Android. I have a rooted S3 and I would like to flash a stock Android rom on it for the first time. I found out the following thread which has the stock Android rom from the Google edition Galaxy S4 (★★★ [ROM][JB4.2.2] StockDroid v6 [16/07][I9505GUEUAMFD] ★★★), I would like to download and flash it to my S3, can I do it?
If not, can anyone suggest a good stock Android rom that I can flash to my S3.
Thanks and regards
Amjad Abu Saa

Stock rom is only for for their supported devices and flashing stock rom to another unspported will brick ur device

Ok thank you all, I thought it's possible, taking the fact that S4 and S3 is pretty similar.

Yes, I am a developer, but that doesn't mean I know everything, I'm good in developing apps, but I'm not good with flashing and custom roms and all these things.
I'm trying to learn these things from this forums, that's why I joined today.

There is probably no way back to stock GB at the moment after installing this update.
Yes just now with this method:

No you can't. However you can go onto cm's website and download the one for this phone. Or follow the links in original android development section.

That's probably not a good idea, as the kernels are different between different carrier versions. Generally.
Flashing a rom for the international version is the fastest way to get a true brick. Jtag is the only way to fix. Flash roms for your version only.

just to add to whats alraedy been said you might see your verizon s3 come up as d2vzw on some rom downloads.

GT-P3110

Hello
I am new to Galaxy to Galaxy Tab
I want to root my GT-P3110 on 4.2.2 Samsung Stock
how do I do this
Sent from my GT-P3110 using xda app-developers app
hi, you can root your tablet by installing a custom recovery (like clockwork mod) and then installing cf auto root, that way you will have your stock firmware rooted. However i strongly recommend you to install a custom rom. Stock firmware comes preloaded with a lot of useless apps that occupymemory(ram and storage). If you install a custom rom your 3110 will feel more light and there is no need to root as they come already rooted. I have installed cyanogen mod in my 3110 and im 100% satisfied. Also best guide i ve found is the official cyanogen http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_p3110
remember if you install a custom rom "Rooting the stock firmware is neither recommended nor necessary."
Thanks mate
Sent from my GT-P3110 using xda app-developers app
Instead of sticking to android 4.2.2, I recommend u to install 4.3 Roms like hellfire,slimbean etc,,,they are rooted by default and comes with lots of features that doesn't come on stock ROM,,stock based 4.2.2 lags a lot,,,and gaming performance is excellent in these 4.3 based ROMs, but as suggested by @katsika you gotta have custom recovery like CWM installed

Noticed a considerable performance increase over other ROMs. Not having Touchwiz or any other Samsung apps is also a big bonus for me.

The best rom is the one YOU like best. Flash and find out.
We all have different needs and tastes....its a silly question to ask others to decide what's best for you.
Sent from my Moto X cellular telephone...
It is your tab so you have to do a little testing to find the one that you like the best.
IMO, S.E.A.L. with the blackhawk kernel and CWM works wonderful for me.

Make sure u flash kernel as above makes a big difference

For some reason this device never got the attention that others did. As such all rooms are based off stock. Your best bet is to root it and install Titanium Backup. Then remove all the boatware with it.
I'm running Rocket Tab Rom on mine and have been happy with it.

I've been running Rocket Tab Lite v3.1. The lite version doesn't have the Samsung stuff. I have had a very good experience with it. I also flashed the Blackhawk kernel.

Hi,
Is there anyway to flash this rom but to stay woth the same stock Theme?
The device is gonna be used with a non-tech person.
Thanks
I see no real difference from stock. This is not like a Cyanogenmod build, it still has the look of Touch wiz. Mainly it just has the Samsung apps removed. I have noticed a great improvement in both performance and battery life with the Rocket Tab ROM.
Sent from my unknown using xda app-developers app
My advice is until there's more options.....root, get titanium backup and freeze a crapload of bloat...especially all the Samsung stuff, greenify and battery and smoothness are as good as it gets I think.

Attached a photo shows the error.
Please help. Thanks

[Q] I just want to ask...

Hey guys, especially the devs out there!
I am just curious if it is possible to flash a rom with this format:
For example, I have a Huawei Honor 3c that has the stock rom; (V100R001C900B127)..... And I want to flash another stock rom which is purposely for another phone model like Huawei Ascend, Samsung Galaxy S5, etc...
Is it possible to flash a stock rom which is purposely for another device into my device?
I'm just curious... Thanks in advance [emoji1] [emoji1]

Yes it is.
But before you flash another rom to your device. First we have to make both of them friends.
Before flashing any rom for another chipset. You have to port that rom to your chipset and then flash it.
Many guids are there on this topic and all of them are reliable if you follow them carefulley. And they works also
