Samsung Galaxy 19300 International S3 rooted with Omega v5.1/B]
Hi, I need some help please - When I rebooted my S3 after flashing the new JB fonts mod Apk with CWM touch it started "updating Android" & proceeded to count up over 300 & then it said "scale". Everything looked fine until an error box came up saying:
Home Selection
Clear default in Home Settings>
Applications>Manage applications.
Unfortunately, %1$s has stopped
WTF is this?....it would not let me do anything. I could get back into CWM & reboot to recovery.
After much retrying, I panicked and wiped cache, wiped Davlik & then did a factory reset.
I then encountered loads of problems trying to reflash thestock formware via Odin but eventually I got it reflashed.
Anyway, I have rebooted the S3 and up comes the original start up screen but the above box is coming up & again, it's preventing me from either by-passing it or deleting it.
Please somebody help as I'm very worried?
Thanks a mil for any worthwhile help/support advice in advance

I have tried to restore phone to stock image via v3.0 s3 toolkit/Odin but I still get the opening screen (where you put in United Kingdom & press start) with this error box. It won't do anything if I try to press start, press arrow back button (it vibrates) or press menu button (it vibrates).
Is this a brick/soft brick?
Any help would be greatly appreciated please!

Thank you in advance.
I just got my SGS2 back from repair today (stuck pixel) and I wanted to installe CM9. I thought I'd start with the latest CWM - the link was broken so I flashed CWM 4.0.0.8, which flashed fine.
When the phone rebooted, it sat in a loop doing nothing. I then flashed CWM 4.0.1.4, which also did not help. I attempted to wipe cache using CWM. A heap of errors scrolled down the screen. I thought I'd restore back to factory kernel and rom, which I did. I am still in bootloop and I have the following text on screen when I go to stock recovery

dunno...most likely you flash wrong rom without reading first...or your zip file not finished download....
check you file..name, actual size before flashing
I hadn't even gotten as far as flashing a ROM, to obtain root, I attempted to use CWM, that is when things went wrong
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458 try this even i got strucked like that wen i tried to flash custom rom
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
That would work, but multiupload is busted
Wipe data/factory reset, clear cache.. The it will start a fresh.. Then re-root if needed.. Hope this helps
This post was most of the solution. After this, I could flash an old version of CMW that worked. Following that, I could flash cyanogen mod 9. Thanks to all

Hello, I performed the recommended upgrade from kies.
Then I rooted my phone for the third time (two previous were successful).
I followed the instructions from there: http://www.techjamaica.com/forums/s...ur-Galaxy-SII-by-a-2-day-old-Android-Newbie!& as per two previous times.
My phone now won't boot. It stays at the boot screen with the yellow exclamation point.
I tried to read relevant threads from here and the web. What I did is:
- removed the battery for 10 minutes, press the on-off button for some secs
- tried to connect it via Kies
- tried to connect it via Kies at download mode
- tried to re-root it via Odin (it said success but still cannot boot)
All above had no success. Now I am without mobile since early morning.
What else can I try to fix it?
Before rooting it, and immediately after the update, the phone was working.
Go to Recovery Mode and try Wipes...
Thanks. Will revert
ok I entered to recovery mode and wiped cache partition - nothing happened
should I wipe data/factory reset?
Ignore step 3 onwards and just flash a CF-root kernel matching your version. In other words, follow the instructions to root from this forum, not some random Jamaica tech forum.

I have searched but I do not know which mode is best to install.
ΟΚ I did follow instructions exactly from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
I rooted the phone successfully and I know it because now the recovery mode is different than the recovery mode before used the latest root.
However I still cannot boot. Should I hardware reset the device? Is this my only option?
Well nothing worked. I booted to "ClockwoorkMod Recovery v4.0.0.2" and deleted/wiped everything, even hardware reset it.
I am still stuck with the yellow exclamation mark. How is even possible that hardware reset doesn't working?
Please help.

If you wiped sd card then you wiped all firmware off the phone . It will now require a flash of stock rom via ODIN .

Thanks oinkylicious. I think I made it this time. Please don't be very strict as its the first time I am messing with my phone and I will ask you for more info.
Never mind I managed to root it. I learned a bit of stuff about android these two days lurking here.
Hi I''ve done some hunting but cannot find any answers (apologies if there is).
This may be a newbie error so again apologies if I am just stupid.
I have a S3 on orange which I rooted using chainfire 6.2 tar via ODIN so I could get full use of Avast and all was fine until I plugged it into Kies and did the update Orange released a week or so ago (details in screen shot below) then a few days later it stopped recognising the external SD, I''ve tried 3 cards none work but are fine in my PC and Xoom.
To do the update I hid the root did the update then left it as was as thought stick to the stock working.
After a few factory re sets still nothing so got in contact with Orange who want the phone back as I'm the only person with this issue.
So then re rooted and downloaded Triangle away so I could reset the counter etc which it has except for removing the triangle???
Can anyone help as Orange are pestering for the phone and I know they'll discover I''ve been tinkering?
Can I just reflash the previous Orange ROM\firmware via ODIN to reset Status and get Tri away to work?

Hold up SGS3 does not have a triangle what phone have you .
jje
download mode always shows a triangle.
The app's name is from the Galaxy S2 who showed a Triangle on boot when it was not on stock, the S3 does not.
All you have is make sure that in Download mode the counter shows 0 or none and the booted phone doesn't read "modified" in Settings->About phone

Beg pardon thought user was referring to the triangle at boot not the download display .

How to uninstall
This is by no means an extensive guide for unrooting, but if you want to sell or warranty your device, I advise the following procedure:
- Use Triangle Away to reset the flash counters, and pull the battery immediately after rebooting starts
- Boot into recovery and perform a wipe, and pull the battery immediately after rebooting starts
- Go to SamMobile and get the stock firmware for your region
- Flash that stock firmware on your device
- Let Android boot, go through device setup (without doing any logins) until Android is fully usable again
- Reboot
- Wait at least 10 minutes
- Check Settings->About device->Status and make sure Device status is not "Modified"
- Perform another factory reset
- Boot into download mode and make sure the flash counter and system status are all set to official
Some of these steps may require further info, if you can't figure it out, do some more searching, or ask people who aren't me

Ahh right that all makes sense now.
All counters reset, status normal, binary no, all official, SD being read.
BUT now messaging doesn't work and it won't download the drivers to my PC.
At least now I can send it back.
hi guys i just installed iHackers ROM and it works fine for about 2 minute until i sign in on mi cloud then my phone is reboot and it's show "Encrypt error" and it says for factory reset to continue and i just go to recovery mode and factory reset.. then it just show me Error mounting/data! and the other on the under text it just text E: can't mount, can't open, etc. after read like that i just go back and reboot again and it just stuck in samsung galaxy S III gt i9300 and now i can't go anywhere except recovery mode any fix for this :crying: previously i'm using miui v5 3.10.25 with googy max kernel and it's work fine :crying:

Read or ask in your rom thread if anyone else has the same, the only advice you'll get here is to wipe and flash stock.

No. Not just data. Go read the basics on how to return to full stock, else you may brick your phone.

Yes but you pay for a repair as warranty is void .
You also accept all risks of bricking your phone by a refusal to read the faqs and guides .

how can i sort this problem. CSC:LL2 (XXX)
i've checked the csc on the phone and its O2U
I restored the phone via kies using firmware upgrade and initialization
that didn't help so i installed recovery-cwmtouch-6.0.3.2-GTI9300 via odin, factory reset phone, cleared cache, wiped delvik file then to make extra sure i went in and wiped everything one at a time, sd card ext sd card, preload ect... then used kies again to restore phone and still the same problem.
please don't just reply saying read all the other threads on the same subject.... i have.
many thanks

Kies has decided your phone csc doesn't match the update.
I've never used kies so can't help solve problems with it, apart from recommend you uninstall it.
If your csc has really changed, I've read that the 4.3 update can cause this, then you can download the full rom for your country from sammobile. Check the md5 then flash using odin (remove kies first), factory reset from recovery and the csc will then be set.
CSC is pretty useless for most people, it just seems to complicate Samsung issues.
I've done everything you have recomended apart from removing kies first. I have downloaded every O2U rom from kies from 4.0.4 upto the latest 4.1.2 and I've backed up the efs file for every rom as I've updated via odin. I don't usually update via kies but I just wanted to try and get everything back to stock

Doing what I've suggested will put the phone to completely stock, apart from your flash counter which you've increased by flashing a custom recovery.
If you want to reset this as well then follow the guide in general forum, sticky threads.
The only definite way is for you to flash back your original saved rom .
Alternative would be under search Kies Emergency Recovery .

i've gone back to an O2U rom and i have managed to update to the latest version using ota update but kies is still showing the (xxx) problem
i've wiped the counter with triangle away and unrooted the phone so it is now totally stock.
Totally stock and correct registry entries ???.
Suggest you find the Kies forum some place on the web or try a Samsung forum .

one bit of info i forgot to add.
if i flash a new rom the imei and sn numbers stay correct but if i try and put the efs file back it doesn't work, but if i reset the imei number and sn number with my nspro box i can then install the efs file and it works.
