[Q] Restoring to a TW backup from CM 10.2 - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I've recently installed CM 10.2 and while I do like it much more than TW there is an issue with bluetooth audio playback that is a deal breaker for me. Before CM I was running the latest version of CleamROM (a touchwiz ROM) with lean kernel. I made a backup before I updated to CM and now I'm looking to go back to that backup.
My question is this: is there anything special I would have to do to go from AOSP to TW? Should it be as simple as restoring the backup or is there anything else I should have to do? Do I have to be careful with the kernels? Right now I have the latest AOSP Lean Kernel, when I was on TW I had the TW Lean Kernel? Will there be an issue when I restore the backup or will it restore the old kernel I was using as well?
Thank you!

If you would like to continue trying CM and don't mind using 4.2.2, the latest CM 10.1 stable build has working bluetooth. I'm using the build now and it runs like a champ.

I am unable to install a new rom after having gone down the cyanogenmod 10.2 route, Did you ever find a solution to your problem? Please do share if you have had any luck.

I was able to factory reset/wipe cache and then install another ROM no problem. I'm not sure why you are not able.

I have tried factory resetting, wiping cache, delvik cache. I can install aosp ROMs and I can restore tw ROMs I had backed up but I can not install a new tw ROM.

Hi,
Slim Bean already has the marmite kernel in its ROM.
look here for info and installation
http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/installation
The download section will lead you to the Crespo link... not the Crespo4G
Its an awesome ROM
good luck
I just flash slim bean 3.1 and it already had Gapps in the rom. I dont need to flash the gapps addon, do it? I actually wanted to flash the 4.2 gapps, its suppose to be compatible with any rom based on 4.XX and above.
Slimbean has Marmite in it as the default kernel. It runs very well. Was very nice but couldn't stand the very low compatibility rate with apps in the market... Many I sorely missed.
I haven't really noticed issues with app compatibility yet. Drop box wasnt compatible, but I just installed the apk, I have many of my essential apps backup on my drop box and titanium

You need cm version. It says so in the first cell on the spreadsheet

Help! (cm10)

This is probably the most silly question ever, but... are gapps included in the cm10 zip? (from official cm site)
I feel so stupid that i ask it, but i cant find any answer on that... i am a noob...
I also have 2 more questions.
1) Should I flash the nightly or the stable build?
2) Which way is safer: with rom manager or manually with cwm recovery?

These answers can be found pretty easily.
Gapps not included.
http://goo.im/gapps
1) Depends. Do you want to flash and never really bother again? Stable. Want the latest features all the time? Nightly. Later has more chance of having bugs.
2) Both way work just fine. Recommend doing it manually via CWM though.

Thank you so much!!!
So, all I need to do is to flash the gapps after flashing cm10? Seems easy... But... Can i flash 4.2 gapps on cm10 stable rom?
And finally, if something goes wrong and my phone doesn't boot, will it work again after restoring my previous Stock rom?

Yes, that's all you need to do.
I wouldn't recommend flashing 4.2 gapps over CM10 stable.
Yes it will work again if you restore your nandroid backup. The Nexus S is next to impossible to brick. If you have any issue just ask here before going further and people can help you.

Yesterday I flashed CM10 stable, the ROM is fantastic but I noticed that the auto rotate doesn't work. Is it a known bug of the ROM or did I miss something?

[Q] Recommend a VANILLA Jelly Bean Rom for a noob

Hey!
Soo haven't been on here but I am starting to get bored of Touch Wiz ..so I was wondering if anyone can recommend me a PURE Android Rom, preferably something with all the current Android features that is also stable.
I also want to be able to run Google Wallet & DashClock Widget ..if possible!
Thanks
You can't really go wrong with cyanogenmod. I'm currently running a nightly of CarbonRom and I'm very happy with it. Not sure your going to get Google Wallet on a Verizon phone. DashClock is rolled into CarbonRom from memory.

Have to ask whats the difference from Cyanogenmod & CarbonRom? Since its a nightly is their any problems u encountered?
Thanks
Cyanogenmod is much closer to Vanilla 4.2.2 (but it does have some custom features). CarbonRom gives you a lot more settings that you can tweak (notifications, icons etc) and includes PIE and Halo. cyanogenmod and CarbonRom (on goo.im).
I had to go with the Nighly to get the camera working. The camera did not work on the stable release so it was suggested to use a Nightly.
you can easily get wallet working on a vzw gs3.

Yea I used the work around on it before when I rooted it, but I want a Vanilla ROM on which I can run it too

..also what is this PIE & HALO u speak of?
PIE is a new menu system (best way I can describe it). Halo is much harder to describe, so the video does it better.

I like CM the best. I don't find myself using the extra features (like PIE) that other ROMs have.

Phone Freezes At CM Splash Screen Updated

So after I flashed 10.2 I can only boot my Verizon s3 on the first initial boot. If I ever have to reboot the phone, it locks up at cyanogenmod flash screen. The only way I can get the phone to boot back up after this, is to do a battery pull and boot into twrp. Then do a full format, doing just a factory reset doesn't work. Once I complete a full format, I can restore one of my backup images and the phone will boot once, and that's it. Then I have to start the process all over again, any ideas?
Don't know if this helps but I'm currently running OSE 4.3.1, but have tried with dirty unicorn & liquid smooth.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Well I managed to get this fixed not 100 percent sure on how, what I did was flash stock deodexed image in twrp, then started flashing from 10.1.3 and then to 10.2. I'm not sure which helped, but after this I was able to restore any of my previous roms and they boot just fine now.

I find if I'm getting an infinite bootloop like that, flashing stock seems to sort **** out. That's the case on the LG and Motorola phones I've owned as well.

Yep I guess so, still learning on all of this custom rom stuff. I tried everything prior to just flashing stock rooted rom, wasted a ton of time wish I would of thought of it sooner.
Below are some current rom's that i'm running all seem to be very stable with very little bugs.
Current Rom:[ROM][OFFICIAL][4.3] CM10.2 M1 for d2vzw so far this rom seems to be very stable have only had one random reboot since I flashed it yesterday.
Backup Up Rom's:
1. So far my all time favorite with very little issues:[ROM][4.3.1][Official][OSE Rom][d2vzw]
2. I really enjoy this rom only complaint is the cell service on it doesn't seem to be quite as stable:[ROM] [Team D.I.R.T] Dirty Unicorns 4.3.1 - d2vzw v3.9
3. Another very stable rom, only complaint is with the radio sometimes after a reboot radio doesn't work and you have to do a battery pull:[ROM][4.3][OFFICIAL] LiquidSmooth v2.10 - d2vzw - 10|6|13

[Q] Help with OSE 4.3.1 and KT747 Kernel

Hey all, after some searching, I have to do 2 things: 1) admit some ignorance, 2) get some help.
Currently I am running OSE 4.3.1 with 3.4.66cm kernel. I REALLY want to put the KT747 kernel in. So is this even possible? I have tried several times, following instructions to the letter, and it just hangs on the KT boot image forever. Oh, the ignorance is knowing if this is ASOP or TW. Thanks for any and all help.

Are you flashing the correct kernel build, 4.3 jellybean aosp? And what is the build date of the OSE ROM? It could be a compatibility issue. Are you doing any wipes when flashing the kernel?
I'm waiting for Android Milky Way

I am on OSE build 10/21, and I tried the KT747-AOSP-JB-MR2-3.4-VZW-10-11-2013, then the KT747-AOSP-JB-MR2-3.4-VZW-11-04-2013.
both of them got to KT boot image and just hung there. I have the KT747 in another ROM (4.1.2) and love to have in with ROM, perfect marriage I think
"Are you doing any wipes when flashing the kernel?"
Yep, even tried a full data wipe, cache, & Delvick withou any luck.
