Well what you waiting for? It is super easy(USE NVFLASH!!) and will help you sleep better at night. Just do baby steps. Root... see how you like it, then after a while try out a custom rom...

I was thought about waiting till the update came down as well. Then I figured "hell, there are issues with the stock roms, why not try and find something more stable." The irony of it all was that my stock was pretty solid... I was just looking for the push off the wagon(recovering crack flasher from the g1). You won't be disappointed.
USE NVFLASH!!!!! I can't stress that enough. Everyday there is a new crop of "help bootloop" threads. Totally avoidable.

APP2SD is free on the market. It wont move everything to the external sd but it will move a lot and more is added all the time.
I've asked a couple people in threads but after getting down to doing it I've come across various posts throughout XDA and other sites listing issues after /emmc format. One case was that the device bricks unless you can repatriation the internal card and another simply recommending not to.
I'd like to format internal to get rid of all the junk left over after multiple ROM flashes. I'm hesitent due to the aforementioned threads but also curious as to whether /emmc includes everything on the internal memory or if there is a secure partition allocated for things such as CWM. Does formatting /emmc not delete CWM itself? The plan is to put the next ROM on external SD, format /emmc, and immediately flash the new ROM on before booting. Is it correct that I all this can be accomplished within CWM and not require first going back to stock through ODIN?
Thanks!
No need to go back to stock. You can format emmc or sdcard through settings-storage. Or connect to PC then click on mount USB storage and delete from PC.

I'm pretty sure the former is a no-no on the Skyrocket, recall coming across that when I was first rooting a while back. The PC approach should be similar to CWM, thanks.
wheres my brain??,.. lol your right about the settings approach. thanks for the reminder
Why would they put it in there if it's a no no?

I don't see why people have all that buzz around cleaning(formatting) the "internal" sd card ...
Just mount USB storage in cwm and while the device is connected to the PC , delete everything from the PC and call it a day ... also you can even put any ROM you like to flash in the meanwhile

the brick problem was for aokp and cm9 roms, a dev bricked his phone using said procedure , since then they disabled that feature(pretty sure they did), it might b visable in the menu but it doesnt do anything.
if you are on stock rogers ics it should be fine (i cant see samsung releasing it as that is a major flaw, lots of returned phones), if u r on it try it, it should b safe, if it bricked it, tell rogers what happen and u will get another one.
custom rogers ics should also b safe, im on skyics 4.2f based on rogers ics, but im not willing to chance it, dont need to since i can use cwm or my pc to accomplish the same thing
I was able to find some work done on the S3 before it was unlocked but can't find anything current for the S3 and dual booting. Has anyone made any progress or is anyone working on it? There are so many awesome roms out there but it's nice to have a daily driver and a slot(s) for test roms.
Boot Manager is an incredible app that I bought when I had the Nexus. Unfortunately, it seems development is dead.

Boot Manager allows multiple roms to boot from the sd card. It works for the Nexus just wasn't updated for the S3. Seems like an experienced developer could write an app or recovery that allows roms to install and run from sd card. If locked Moto phones can do it (Safestrap), surely ours can.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
Moto's rom storage location is different than ours, the entire internal or at least most of the internal is able to be written on using safe strap. And besides, restoring a nandroid backup takes the same amount of time as safe strap does to transfer the data between the 2 partitioned rom's.

You got me there. I'd throw out BootMenu but we don't have a Webtop partition, so I know that'd be shot down.
So our only hope (app wise) at this point is Boot Manager? The app description says the only Samsung phone it works on is the Nexus. Anyone know what's different about it compared to the S3 (in terms of boot partition)?

Former Boot Manager Addict in Recovery
Honestly, when i had my DX, i was a boot manager addict! you couldn't tell me there was anything wrong with it.
however...
used to have leeeetle minor bugs i had to live with due to how Boot Manager worked. and flashing themes was a pain in the A$$
today i'm in recovery, but still a flash-aholic. all i do now is just flash a rom, get it just how i like it, make a nandroid of it, and can flash back and forth all day.
tired of Synergy, flash TWRP, click on restore, and walla, i've got Paranoid Android up and running... tired of that, and next its Beans Custome Rom 11, and so forth. only annoying thing is that when you add to it after you make a nandroid, and dont upgrade, then you have to go back and add the changes.
but trust an old addict, this is waaaaaay better, and not much slower than Boot Manager!

I agree that backup/restoring isn't THAT bad but I just miss being able to boot to random roms without much hassle. I had 6 current roms on my Nexus. With BootMenu (not to be confused with Boot Manager) on my Maxx, changing between system 1 (phone rom) and system 2 (webtop rom) was literally as fast as rebooting. Just reboot and a menu came up to boot 1st, 2nd, or recovery.
I'm not complaining about my S3 by any means (best phone I've had to date) I just feel pretty sure it IS possible to dual (or multi) boot if some one with the knowledge took the challenge. Quad core, NFC, battery changeable, 4.8" screen, fully functional Jelly Beanable, LTE piece of hardware booting CM, AOPK, MIUI, TW, AOSP, [you name it] with the click of a button. Gets me excited just thinking about it. Wish I know enough to take the project on myself.

I pointed that out on the last page. Do you know WHAT is different about the boot partition that it only works on the G'Nex and no other Sammy phones? I entered my device in manually in Boot Manager just to see if it'd work but it couldn't back up my phone rom (because of boot image).
Unless something is incredibly special about the G'Nex, perhaps the app could be adapted for other Sammys.

TWRP and CWM are both custom recoveries that have the same functionality performed in unique ways. Each person has their own preference. Before today, I've never used anything except for CWM (with the exception of putting CM10 on my wife's blaze, it was some weird recovery I've never seen on any other device), but I'll be giving it a try.
Just about anything you can do in CWM can be done in TWRP. There are no "CWM ROMs", there are ROMs that are flashed using a custom recovery (such as CWM or TWRP).

After re-reading, I think I might appear to come off as a ****, and if I do, I'm sorry. Not trying to, just helping to educate you
Android modding can be a lot to take in and it's better to squash bad or mistrue views early than to try to re-learn later. I know that part from experience.
Never hesitate to ask anything

The partitions interest me. Some ROMs it is emmc for internal and sdcard for external.
Others have internal SD listed as sdcard and external listed as external_SD.
anyways, I think twrp team implemented mtp mode as well as mass storage and you may have to install new drivers or try a different ROM.

i know CM10 has sdcard as internal and external_sd as the external. TWRP has emmc as internal and external_sd as the external, so they share the same external_sd mount points. however, neither internal nor external shows up on my PC when I mount USB storage. I normally use MTP mode in CM10, but mass storage works as well.
Inside TWRP, when mounting, nothing changes in Device Manager in windows. DM recognizes a device was plugged in, but there is nothing listed as a media or storage device

Hi! I'm new here, but i am a bit experienced in stuff...
Anyway, when i got my Tab 2 7.0, i did flash it to Cyanogen. Now, i am on RC2
Now, i am stuck on a question: "Should i get ParanoidAndroid 3+ or stay on CyanogenMod?"
I *can't* find any clear opinions, bug list, installation instructions or kernels... ( I know what is Factory Reset, but "Wipe Everything"? )
So i ask your help, guys. ParanoidAndroid seems an A+++ rom for me, as i like costumization. No, do not ask me to get Xposed, it's already hard as it is for me.
So thanks guys!
Full wipe just means clear the caches in clockworkmod

They also recommend formatting the internal sdcard, which i sometimes do, because it is easy to end up with multiple 0 directories, factory reset skips formating data/media.

it uses latest cyanogenmod build and have paranoid android incorporated.
it will be best for u .i think so
I flashed paranoidandroid on my Tab2-p3100 but i had problem with the mic, which was not working at all.
I never flashed cyanogenmod on my tab (may be I am afraid of the term "nightly" makes it seem very unstable, you know!, though, they say they are as stable as they come).
Now there is this PAC-ROM , claims to have all-in-one features of all the roms together, i flashed it as well, it was also a good rom to test, but there were some bugs in it (you can refer to the thread), now I am using Adishakti's Dark-Fantasy-2 rom, which is a modded paranoidandroid+AOSP+ maybe caynogenmod ROM but it is really very good and stable, least of glitches i noticed elsewhere

DarkFantasy is PAC ROM with Sony launcher and some eye/ear candy.
Please, I beg you, try cyanogenmod. If your uncomfortable tyr the cyanogenmod RC 2. It is the most stable ROM I have used. I have used to for almost 3 months now. Since I am a flashaholic i flash other ROM's often but i find cyanogenmod the best and I always go back to it.
Try it. Please.

I agree, also. I think it is funny how people go crazy over ROMs which are just other roms modified to the makers preferences. Not to say the makers do not deserve credit for their hard work, but why not take a good ROM and mod it to your own liking. Just an opinion.

Wow, so many comments on my "2cents"
Maybe my comment was perceived as "noob rant"
I had some experience with cyanogenmod in the past with some older phones (gingerbread ones) and definitely i was hooked to it then. But like I said, I was just afraid to try it on my Tab because of that dreadful suffix to it, and Luigi, your comment has really moved me
I am a member at cyanogenmod forum for last 2 years by the same name and I think on this forum too by the same name.
I actually had nothing much to post on xda previously because almost everything I wanted to know was already posted and i used this forum's knowledge to flash friends' phones mostly and had no experience of anything i used so nothing to post, but, since I now own a Galaxy tab P3100 and most of the time I am reading this section about the tab, I just wanted to share what i thought appropriate, that's all.
Thanks for pointing out that the rom I was talking about is a modded PAC-ROM, and I think what one flashes and uses is a matter of personal choice, i just shared my opinion as i think the OP asked for that.
Thanks for the comments
Alright installed cyanogenmod "latest nightly":good:
Working furiously since last 3 hrs installing all my apps all over again
Cleaned my internal memory (wiped it)
Maybe i'll come to like it.

Actually I had a huge backup of applications but I happen to read the SGT2 cyanogenmod nightly thread and right there in the first or second post users are warned against using titanium backup to restore apps. And I thaought, what the hell, maybe I need to wipe Internal memory clean from time to time so why not now.
Somewhere in the forum a new app backup software is suggested, "helium backup"! Any experience with that?
So now we are going way off topic
Back to the topic, after using the new ROM whole night (seriously I was on a night shift!), I found out it to be lot better than someone else's modded version, I used "PimpMyRom" to my heart's content!!!!!

Yes, I used pimpmyrom to add bravia2 engine, the sound tweaks, gps mod for better GPS lock, except for the quality of video, all other things improved as expected. I could not notice difference in video quality.
Gprs was also improved, no 3g where I live.
