Hello all, I hope this is the right place to ask this, but I recently crossed over to Android devices from BB so I'm still trying to figure out my way around things. Today I flashed ICS Android version 4.0.3, kernel version 3.0.8-perf-i717uclc5-cl281649 and build number iml74k.144 onto my Note and the installation went fine, had no problems at all, but now I can't install apps from my web browser(Chrome) onto my Note like I could before the flash. USB debugging is on.
Is this something that I may have done wrong? Any help would be much appreciated.

To be honest, I really don't know, like I said I'm coming from BB and still trying to figure everything out. Here's the link that I downloaded the ROM from:
rootzwiki.com/topic/22134-sgh-i717uclc5-ice-cream-sandwich
If anyone has a link to a better ROM, I'm definitely open to try them out. I would just like to know how to fix the problem of not being able to install apps from the Play Store from my web browser.
You can't install apps using Chrome browser from your PC ?
Why not use the Market (play store) app that's already on your phone? You have to have a Gmail account set up on your phone to access the market.

I've been using the app that's on my phone but EVERYTHING on my phone got wiped and it's a bit easier to multi-task on a computer than it is a phone, so it's more about comfort ability at the moment, but this is just one issue arising, how many other, and potentially more serious issues are going to arise?

This is not an issue... use the play market to get your apps.. not a PC... because you obviously don't know how.... what you explained is NOT an issue, its the wrong approach. Your fist mistake was downloading a rom from root wiki.. flash my rom.. Seraphim-Mesosphere, and be happy...

I've been using my browser to install apps on my phone since I got, it's just started having this issue since I flashed an ICS rom, so it's not that I don't know how to do it, because I do, this is an issue with the rom.
But I will take your advice instead of try to argue with you, can you link me to your rom?

So I downloaded the Seraphim First Flight, but I have no idea how to flash it onto my device, I'm assuming you can't do it through Odin?
You better stop! There are so many instructions about rom flashing. Study up!
You can ruin your phone with the click of a button. You sound close to it.
It's really not that hard...
0. Download Rom of your choice to somewhere on your external SD card.
1. Use Odin to flash the latest version of i717 ClockWorkMod Recovery (aka "CWM" )
2. Boot into CWM (use 3-finger salute method to boot into recovery).
3. Clear cache/factory reset
4. Install Rom of your choice that you had saved to your external SD card.
5. Reboot and enjoy .
But yeah, if any/all of the above confuses you, then you REALLY need to spend many hours reading before you go any further.
As for roms, I recommend dman's (as already mentioned) or ICS Perfection -- both have lots of active support...
Good luck.
+1 listen to dman he is D-MAN. you cant go wrong with anything made by THE COLLECTIVE...... any Collective rom will set you straight, just read all instructables .

Him mentioning USB debugging immediately made me think he was speaking about side loading APKs.
If you're trying to install apps downloaded from sources other than the market, for future reference, you must check the "unknown sources" box under settings>security.

Anyone know why kies says note is not upgradeable through kies...drivers and everything installed correctly...did the update get pulled
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
Are you rooted ?
Kies will see a rooted device as having " privileged commands " if you have a custom or altered recovery or boot loader ...
Verify that you are "stock "....before attempting to use Kies for upgrades ...
Otherwise, another method must be used ....like Odin ....g

I have unbranded galaxy s3 i9300...
Still running android 4.0.4
baseband version: I9300XXLF
Any idea why there is no OTA jelly bean for me yet?
Also,any idea if it should be even available for me ?
Updates are dependent on many factors, including where you live.
Ask Samsung directly
Or root and take control.
Good luck
When it comes to rooting - I'm a total rookie..
Where I can ask samsung about it ?
It's not difficult to root s3
Take an hour, a pc
Search s3 thread for root kit, it's all explained and semi automatic there
Odin is included in above and will be used to root in seconds.
Make sure you understand what you will be doing, follow steps properly. An hour should be enough to read and do rooting
If you need to ask Samsung, go to their website, check contact us section for your country.
sent from s3 running Viking and phenomenal extreme.
press thanks if I helped you
relatively, you can go to sammobile.com and download the latest official jb firmware..
but take not that the updates also depend on the region are currently in.. so if let's say you download the Polish JB firmware, and you are not from Poland... then you won't have to get OTA updates.. you have to update your phone manually
Cheers!
You don't have to root to flash the latest software version...

That's very odd... Heard of a solution?
I just got a new phone, my mom bought it for me with the money we had saved and she hasn't even paid it whole yet.
I rooted it fine, but then I tried flashing CM10 on it, everything went smoothly but then it got stuck on the CM startup/splash screen or whatever it's called... when I turn it off it automatically reboots and the same thing happens.
it was locked to a carrier, that was probably what screwed it up... I don't know what to do...
if you need any info, please ask. I might know it.
please help :/

did u ever get the JellyBean update to work? I have the tmo S3 and was able to update via Samsungs kies software. However, in sep I had an ATT Galaxy Note and an international factory unlocked Note around for a bit, and the ATT version was supported in Samsung Kies for the ICS upgrade, but the international was not. I believe ICS had to be flashed in the end. I just thought I'd let u know what happened for me, hope it helps. Good luck

Hi everyone
As the title suggests i deleted my stock clock using sytemnapp remover. When i try to set an alarm using S-voice it says "sorry i couldnt save it"(i did click make backups but they are nowhere to be seen) I was hoping that someone here could help me out here. Im using a UK vodafone branded S3
Android version 4.1.2
build number JZ054K.I9300XXELL5
Vodafone Uk
If someone could help me out i would be so damn grateful. Thanks for your time
Steve
Are you running custom rom? If so reboot into recovery and restore your last backup which should return clock. Otherwise I would recommend you flash or reflash stock firmware, which should return all system apps, as this will probably unroot phone after flashing you will have to re root. Guides are available by searching xda or google it. Good luck

Hi there, this is how i fixed my alarm problem
firstly download the clock apk relavent to your phone, i think that there are 3 different ones provided in this thread.
Secondly you need to download something from the play store called "Rom toolbox pro" its £3 but if you ask in the forums here someone can probably point you to a free one that does the same thing.
make sure your phone is rooted, install and run Rom toolbox pro. click on Root Browser, navigate to where you put the APK on your phone, copy and move it to root/system/app. Once you have moved the apk find it in the app folder, click and hold it for a couple of seconds. A menu should popup with options, click on "permissions" set them so they are like this. http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2pphiyo&s=6 If you are using a different app you will need to set your permissions accordingly, yet again im sure there is someone on here clever enough to help with that.
Now just restart your phone, the APK will run on boot.
These are the exact steps i followed and they worked for me as the pic demonstrates. http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2h353dl&s=6
I hope you have the same luck
Steve
