[Q] How to get custom recovery on 4.3 (MJ9) - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am on the official 4.3 MJ9 version. After I rooted my device I tried to install S4 revolution rom from recovery. But it always kept showing "signature verification Failed"error message. Then I downloaded Mobile Odin and flashed the rom through it. Now my problem is that whenever I try to flash a mod it always shows me the "signature verification Failed"error message. So, I am guessing it might be happening as I have not installed any custom recovery. So, Can anyone tell me How to install a custom recovery and which one will work on 4.3?

I have gone through that thread. The procedure is not working. When I try to install the recovery script, goomanager says 'no recovery found for your device'

I have not ignored it, but basically that thread didnot solved my problem. Anyways thanks for your efforts.

Would have solved it if you read it as there are instructions to flash recovery, which is what you asked for!

[Q] no service after installing ROM

hi guys
I had CM10 and all worked fine.
I wanted to change to a different ROM and wiped EVERYTHING and installed MIUI ROM. I didnt liked it at all and switched to Pardus HD RoM
™ FINAL 4.1.2 ReMastered (12.09.13) - I noticed it did something with my modem during installation.
I didnt liked it too - and installed Omega v48.1 (4.2.2) which I think I do like.
BUT....
I noticed I dont have signal.
I do have WIFI. I checked my IMEI and it is OK but serial number is 000000000
I tried ARIZA patch but it didnt worked.
I tried to install a different modem - no help.
i tried to Install stock rom - I cant. installation fail.
going back to CM10 is ok but no signal, IMEI is 0049 and serial is unknown.
Please help me gain a signal again.
PLEASE I BEG YOU, read the sticky threads. Read general > sticky roll-up > imei /efs.

Its all documented. If you're not willing to put the effort to find the fix, even when I told you exactly where it was, then no one is going to spoon feed you. Want to be spoon fed? Join an android help forum. This is a developers forum and everyone here who wants help is expected to want to learn and be able to follow instructions. If this isn't you, you're in the wrong forum.
The problem with sone people is they expect "flash this" as an answer and are in too much of a rush to read. They skim things or don't bother reading properly.
Fact is, if you'd have read my thread before flashing roms, your phone would still work. If you had followed my thread now, you would understand and if you'd followed my directions properly, you'd have a working phone. But this is too much for the impatient.
Basically, don't flash your phone if you can't be bothered to understand why it broke or how to fix it

and last thing
i know you tired from answering the same thing over and over again.
but if so many people asking it again and again - it means something.
maybe the info is confusing, maybe it is not clear enough
and maybe you can just take a deep breath and just help instead of behaving like this.
im a manager of a forum too... i know what you mean... but when i see a person really in a trouble and confused - i help him.
and yes.... i know the search in this thread... try you to search zuluman in this thread and find an answer.

Yep cwm recovery flash. You cant have MA anything thogh. The link I gave is MG4. You cannot go older than MG2....
There is also another post in that thread where someone else claims to have patched an MH1 baseband. Its later than the post I gave you the link to.... I forget his name. Only a few pages after
ok... thanks...
its good i saw your link to the MG...
so i installed it in recovery mode. after installing it - rebooted... and now -
imei: unknown
serial number is long number - i guess it is ok.
no signal - before that i had a signal bar but no registered to a carrier.
now i have a circle and when going to mobile networks - i get message: insert sim card. (my sim is inserted)

Do you have any EFS backup (from preferably before flashing Pardus)? or at least before flashing Ariza patch initially?
If not, best bet is to flash latest stock official MG4 ROM (or newer) completely unroot (resetting flash counter etc) and take to a mobile repair shop. Any will do. They will be able to re-write your EFS partition for v ery little money (£20 UK price) and then you can start again and have no serial / IMEI issues.
I think in your case this is the easiest thing to do.
Although, try maybe flash standard MG4 modem from my imei therad (without patch) to see if serial stays and IMEI comes back. Or the MH1 linked later in ariza thread.
i have a friend that have a cell lab.
i will go to him tomorrow and fix this.
i dont want patches and stuff... he rooted my phone before and he will fix it for me...
thanks anyway...

With due respect better first read the guides to know what rom and firmware is. After that read more and then some day try flashing.

Did anyone got AOKP stable with the insane chip (sudden death syndrome)?

Hi guys, I've been using AOKP for a week now.
I'm loving this ROM, but, alas, I'm getting some huge stability issues.
I have the dreaded insane chip, that causes the sudden death syndrome.
A solution is to fill up the internal storage using the dummy file generator, that helped, but I'm still getting those.
I'd like to know if anyone has gotten AOKP to run stable on a I9300 with the insane chip, which version of AOKP are you running and if you did anything special to make it stable.
I'm running 2013-10-15.
Thanks!

Ah OK, thanks.
So, should I install the kernel over my ROM over recovery, or you do first the kernel and then the ROM?
Is a wipe necessary?
Kernels are always included in roms. This means if you flash a rom, you're also overwriting any kernel you had. So rom then kernel via recovery.

rootSU, I'm reading that, very useful, thanks!
Quick and last question, can I brick it by flashing a kernel?
From what I understand, the kernel is part of the /system partition, like ROMs, so if I mess up, I can always get to recovery mode, correct?
Actually it flashes to mmcblk0p5 which is /boot.
Same risk as rom flashing though.
