Dear all,
Is there any way to back up default ROM from S3? I mean when it's straight from Telco shop?

I'm thinking you would at least have to do a chainfire root, install CWM and backup.

Thank u!

Thanks for you're response was beginning to think I'd get no help. I have a lg-e739 or lg my touch 4g. Stick ROM I'd gingerbread 2.3.4. Same kernel as cm7 if I'm not mistaken. I'm a noob

Additionally, should I have wiped my data/cache and dalvik cache when installing a new ROM?

Yes, it is highly recommended.

Can I flash kernel Siyah-s2-v4.0.1-CWM.zip safely on my rooted S2?

Hi
Can I flash the above kernel safely using cwm? I am already rooted using cwm.zip then update.zip. I want to install and use some custom boot animations. I currently have ICS 4.0.4 XXLQ6.
Thank you
Tim

No nandroid backup.

I think i might be in a bit of a mess here.
i have flashed the SuperNexus ROM and also the Siyah Kernel v1.5 b3, but before doing all this i forgot to take a nandroid backup of my original ROM.
my phone: Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-I9300.
my question is that is there a way i could get a stock Samsung ROM from somewhere incase i need it.
Thanks in advance.

[Q] galaxy can't finish backup

Hello, I have a galaxy s3 rooted with cwm 5.5 something and I'm using revolution Rom by Mike based on JB. I wanted to do backup so I'd be able to recover it at some point in the future, however it says that it can't backup system somehow, shall I update cwm through ODIN and then check?

Have you got enough space on your sd card to perform a backup?
I've got round about 2 gb

[Q] Can i brick my phone when by rom-installation all right?

Dear Community, when i make all right by flashing a rom can i brick my Phone?
Thanks for asks.
If you did all flashing process right And if the rom is ok, no, but if you mess up with root files, it can get bricked, i mean with file explorers, after the flashing it.

Don't worry you can make a CWM backup , you can restore your phone that way. If you were to brick your phone and restored via Odin, you can go back to the backup and it will restore everything before the brick :thumbup: . Just install the rom the way it tells you too.
