Hey guys i'm just a beginner in roms and cyanogenmod , I have a samsung galaxy SIII with android 4.0.4 and i want to install the new cyanogenmod 10.2 which is based on android 4.3 <<
my question is
1) do i have to update my android version 4.0.4 to 4.3 using software update then install cyanogenmod 10.2 ..
2) OR just flashing cyanogenmod 10.2 will replace the 4.0.4 with jelly bean 4.3 software ???

You need only to flash ROM and Google apps (if you want them.)
First flash recovery ☺.

-you must install an advanced CWM recovery either, Philz, TWRP via odin, there are tutorials on that.
-when you have it, you should leave the CM zip and gapps this in the internal or external sd.
-when you have them, you must get into recovery mode by pressing power button, volume up and home button.
-in recovery, you must do wipe data factory reset., wipe cache, and dalvik cache (you find it in this advanced)
-wipes once done, you go denes install from sdcard, you want the zip file of the rom and gapps, whether you left in the internal or external sd. and install first the rom, then gapps.
-once installed, back again, and give it to reboot sistem now.
Now enjoy your new rom :good:

root s3

hi there guys i am really new to all this rooting, i rooted my phone on the verison 4.1.1 and i know for my network the 4.1.2 has come out but it wont let me update it to that, is there anyway i can update it to 4.1.2 and keeping root
Cheers
Go to SamMobile and download the latest firmware for your network and flash it
yes there is. Go as decribed to http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/ and look for i9300 with ur network. Then flash via Odin. Keep in mind u will loose ur root and u will have to repeat the rooting process... at least if u want to gain root again,
cheers
If you have the app, you can use mobile odin and flash the firmware with it, you will keep root.

thank you guys,
what if i want to update to another rom but has the version 4.1.2, would i first have to update my rooted s3 to 4.1.2 then root it then put the 4.1.2 rom e.g wanamlite 4.1.2 or can i just install the rom from clockwork recovery ??

If you have a rooted device, you can directly go from 4.1.1 to (any 4.1.2) custom rom. You may have to wipe your device, follow the instructions in the specific ROM thread.
If you are a newbie to rooting / flashing spend more time in reading + choose correct rom for your S3 or else your phone would turn out-to-be a costly paper weight!

Updating/switching roms (CM)

Hi, I have updated and rooted my phone a while ago so I have forgotten a few things... I have CyanogenMod 9.1.0 and android version is 4.0.4... And now I came here and saw that there is android 4.2 and CM 10.1.... But I didn't found any information for updating between those two, there is only for coming from stock firmware. Can I just download 10.1 and install it from Clockwork mod or should I first update to 4.2 and how to do it?
Wipe data/factory reset after flashing the kernel for the new version and install the rom in cwm. All your data will be lost, but your phone should boot
Btw please ask questions in the Q&A forum

Sorry for the wrong forum...
And tnx for the reply... So no need to update to 4.2 manually, just kernel for rom and then rom?? Will it be like that for any onther custom rom?

Yes it's the same for all custom roms. Flash the kernel, boot in cwm and do the wipes, then flash the rom
Btw you could read my guide on how to install a custom rom/kernel to get more information. The link is in the "Roll up sticky thread" in the stickies in general forum :good:

this is the manual way (automatic is SEUS ).. but to ur question yes, it so:
before installing rom, check which kernel needed for this (or if its inside zip, to flash BEFORE install; via fastboot..)
if u switch between stock ics & cm builds OR between cm9 and cm10(.1) FULL WIPE IS recommended!!
if u do only a upgrade like install newest version of smae rom on ur phone u can WIPE NOTHING! (only if u get problem )
yes 1st kernel (recovery (CWM) built in) then ROM ; maybe some addons/gapps (google apps), dun
peace

the point which make me conflict is installing CM 10.1.3 on official firmware 4.1.2 ( as table i sent you from CM official site it shows firmware 4.2.2 beside CM 10.1.x) because CyanogenMod not change firmware number i think
could you please clear this for me

u need not worry about those version and firmware details
The statement in those cm sites are about installing the correct gapps package for the correct version of cm
It has nothing to do with incompatibility of latest version for our phones
Be rest assured i run android 4.3.1 in my gs2 gt i9100
