[Q] Galaxy S3 (INT) CM10 to AOKP Official Build 3 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Read in the official AOKP Official release [Build 3] thread that Galaxy S3 owners coming from Sammy JB leaks need to flash back to ICS ROM before flashing the AOKP to allow wifi tethering and nfc to work as shown below.

It will work if the right precautions are taken.
*if you hanvnt flashed a Samsung job leak and came directly from ICS or another cm ROM.
* if used a jb leak then flashed back to stock ICS to enable your NFC and wifi and then flashed this ROM.
My question is, I am currently on CM10 having previously on stock ICS 4.0.4. Do I still have to flash to ICS before entering AOKP?I do understand I have to wipe factory data, cache and dalvik as well. Any pro wish to help me out here? Thanks alot!

"Ya" means I have to reflash back to ICS or "Ya" means i dont have to and can carry on flashing AOKP? Sorry....confused noob here. Thanks for the reply anw!:laugh:

Anyone knows how to go about flashing from CM10 to AOKP? Do I really need to flash back to a stock ICS?

OK NVM. got it right the first time. For those wondering if you need to flash to ICS before going into AOKP, the answer is you DONT!. I was on CM10 and flashed right away after clearing my data factory reset, cache and dalvik cache. There are no problems whatsoever,so enjoy your AOKP ROM.Currently back on CM10 nightly build as I found that there are more issues in AOKP Build 3 than CM10, but love the vast customization you can get on AOKP though.

still not working
I flashed latest official ICS from samobile, tested tethering and worked fine. Back to RR AOKP build 3...not working.

U have to flash ics rom only if u have wifi issues thats all...

wifi is fine
well...flashed different ICSs (custom), tethering is working fine. Flashing AOKP back, no go....its broken somehow.
thanks.

any estimate as to when wifi tethering issue would get fixed in aokp/aosp based ROMs?

Is there a work around to have a fully functional wifi tethering on aokp JB?

[Q] Some questions before ics upgrade...

Hi guys, after a little patience I'm now very interested in ics upgrade.
My s2 runs kk5 stock rooted cause I don't wanna miss features like mhl tv-out.
So my doubts are:
Is possible to flash kp8 with mobileodin?
What about bootloader? Jig still working?
To switch back to kk5 restore nand backup is enough or also other needs to be downgraded?
Thanks.
Best regards,
Jussy.

Then i suggest you wait until it officially comes out rather than flashing a leaked version that isn't finished. Until it comes out you can read the faq's on here and familiarize yourself with flashing.
The current ics leaks and cm9 are both not really ready to be daily drivers due to instability and missing features, only try if you know what you are doing, if you are use you want to try, make sure to take a nandroid and read the relivent threads.

Thanks for your fast and kind reply.
I'll wait for a stable release.
I have KK5 stock and rooted using cfroot kernel with the old jig compatible bootloader as my favourite firmware.
I also have been using cm9 which I like a lot. The missing features and bugs don't effect my daily usage.
I never flashed the ics bootloader and never experienced any problems.
I made a backup of kk5 via CWM and flashed cm9 then gapps then faceunlock then wiped as directed in cm9 1st post. Setup my phone how I wanted it then when I was happy with everything I made a backup via CWM of cm9.
Ive been restoring either KK5 or cm9 via CWM and so far not had any hassles flipping between them.
When I want to checkout a new version of cm9 ive been able to restore my CWM backup of cm9 then flash New version then flash gapps then faceunlock then wipe cache. This has not wiped my cm9 setup and data and all has been good to use. No FC etc.
Hope this helps.

no wifi since new JB leak

ever since i flashed the latest version of the Jb leak i have no wifi, any ideas on how to fix this?
It's impossible to fix I'm afraid. Your phone is now practically bricked.
Just kidding, flash a stock based sammy ics rom and you'll be good to go.

Yes its a known issue. Flashing the leaked sammy JB rom seems to kill wifi in a funny way. Flash a sammy stock ics rom (or custom rom eg. wanam or omega) and your wifi will be fixed. You can then proceed to install JB AOSP or CM10 or whatever.

[Q] WIfi Tether No Longer Working on JB

Right guys Ive looked around the forums and cant quite find the post that relates to:
Samsung Galaxy S3 WIFI tether no longer working after flashing custom JB roms.(I have also found some ICS roms dont work either)
I have tried various different ROMs and kernels to try and get a working JB rom with WIFI tethering and not yet found one. Tested CM10, CM9, PA, SlimROM, the list goes on! with kernels 3.0.31 CM and siyah kernel.
Has anyone successfully got JB working with WIFI tethering successfully broadcasting an SSID and connecting and using it!!??

ok cool Ill give that a try and see what happens!
this is what u get when u play arnd with custom roms.........each custom rom is ****ed up in some way or another!
russeini if you have nothing to contribute then please kindly stfu.
At least some of the roms (Pa, Cm, ...) are not Samsung-based and currently have some stability issues with such features as wifi tethering.
Roms based on Samsung's official Jb work fine or at least should.

Hey. I got the same issues. All roms you listed i've tried also (incl AOKP) and while WI-FI did work, thethering/NFC didn't. Some said that you need to flash back sammy ICS stock then the AOSP/AOKP based rom and it will work (you cand fine info on the related threads). Didn't work that way either so I quit although I am in love with AOKP roms (RR AOKP, rootbox, official AOPK). They provide the true Android experience that Google intented, not the the sammy/crappy one.
All sammy ICS/JB custom roms worked fine (WIFI, BT, NFC, tethering, etc). I am now on Alliance ICS that is fully AOSP themed, very stable and smooth.Highly recommended.
Regards
**FIXED**
**FIXED!!!** HOORAY
Right coz Im nice this is what I did
1. Ran ODIN and FLASHED ROM I9300XXBLH3_I9300H3GBLH2_H3G from samfirmware.com
2. Hold Vol UP + Power + Home Key - wiped user data + cache
2. Ran ODIN and FLASHED Kernel CF-SGS3-CWM-v5.5-v1.5.tar from chainfire
3. Copied cm-9.1.0-i9300.zip and gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip to my SD card
4. Hold Vol UP + Power + Home Key and booted to CWM
5. Installed cm-9.1.0-i9300.zip and gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip and then wiped user data + cache
6. Rebooted!
And now I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 that is on cm9 with new JB look instead of stock look but more important!!! The WIFI Tethering is working!!!!!!! HOOOORAY

Do you know if this would work for a TMobile S3? I am still trying to find a confirmed working solution for WiFi tethering so I can tie my nexus 7 tablet to my unlimited data plan so I can make full use of it at work.

When will we not need to revert to ICS to flash AOSP or CM10

I'm asking as the S3 has been upgraded to JB firmware. I don't really want to go back to XXBLG8 to flash either CM10 or an AOSP like SuperNexus.
Reason for asking here, I didn't want to repeat the question on two or more threads
Never because the modem in, for example supernexus, isn't compatible with the S3, which is why when we upgrade from ICS to AOSP it doesn't flash a modem.

Not to confuse you and/or others......But I managed to install and get AOSP running without the need to roll back to ICS whatsoever. Installed directly from CM10 nightly. Stock ICS->Rooted/CM10->AOSP->CM10 Wifi,Sync and Mobile Data worked fine without hiccups. The only reason why i flashed back to CM10 was that I feel CM10 is much better with updates rolled out almost everyday.
The answer to your question is..... when we all use Siyah Kernel

Wifi

Solved! Didn't do full wipe before installing and somehow the kernel for CM10.1 was in the AOKP Omega ROM. Full wipe before flashing has solved this.
I've got a problem with wifi. After coming from stock ICS then OTA stock JB (UK Vodafone some months ago) I rooted and installed SuperNexus. Tried AOKP Omega. These worked well so thought I would try CM 10.1. Wifi stopped working so went back to the Omega ROM via recovery. Wifi still not working. I think I know what to do: reflash a stock Sammy ICS and then a custom ROM. But why would the wifi fail after many ROMS away from stock?
Just to explain more, it won't switch on using the toggle or the slider in settings. Everything else is OK.
Thanks in advance
