[Q] Problems with flashing my I9300 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys,
my name is Raphnika and I am complete new to this.
I've tried to flash my Samsung S3 with a custom ROM like the Pacman one.(KK 4.4 or something like that).
I was not able to install it on my device so I tried the Android Revolution HD ROM and that worked for me fine.
It seems like I am not able to flash any KK ROMs to my S3. I keep getting a Status 7 Error...
I googled it and tried many solutions but none of them worked. It might be to the fact that I am a complete noob to this.
I hope you guys can help me!
lots of greetings,
Raph

[Q] Upgraded to ICS but now market/play is missing

So i upgraded to ICS but now the andriod market/google play app is missing and i cannot dl any other apps bc of this. when i go the google play website, the device is listed but faded and cannot be selected. Please help thank you. this was the rom i used for ics i got from this site. thanks.
did you flash the latest gapps via cwm after installing the rom?
i dont know what that is or how to do it.
well im assuming since you got a custom rom on it, you managed to install clockwork recovery (cwm). can you link the thread that you followed to get the rom on your tab for me please?
i followed these directions but i didnt purposely install a cwm. after reading what it was, i thought it was just the DOS looking screen where you load things using the buttons on the top (like how you reformat it).

i wasn't aware you can install a custom rom through stock recovery. anyway the file you need is this
http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip
i don't know if whatever recovery you're using will install it, since i've only ever flashed roms and gapps via cwm
so i install as like an update like i did the ics rom?

Impossible to install a custom rom on Hero (2.1)

Hi
I have a stock HTC Hero (2.1-update1).
I would like to install Elelinux on it but I can't install CWM Rom Manager : the free version won't show up in the market and I have tried to download the app on their website, but when I try to install it I get an error about the package analysis...
I have also tried to install flashrec, but I also get an error when I want to back up...
Help would be appreciated
Thanks !
PS: my phone is rooted, and I still have the stock recovery
search in google 'rom manager apk' hopefully you should find one that works
already tried......
can't find one that works

ahhh ok. i remember when i had this problem on a custom rom. i managed to find an apk that worked (sorry i don't have it anymore otherwise i would upload it for you to try it out). the one i had was quite an old version of rom manager because the newer versions didn't seem to work.
if you had recovery i would maybe be able to help you further (although i'm guessing if you had recovery you wouldn't have this problem )
i'm sorry but thats all i got, maybe someone with more knowledge than me will be able to help you a bit more
I do have the recovery rom, but I can't flash it.
Do you know how to do it without using Rom Manager ?

no, sorry. that sort of stuff is way beyond what i know
EDIT: you could take a look at this guide http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Hero_(GSM):_Full_Update_Guide if you do decide to do it that way then its at your OWN risk. there are also a few guides here on XDA you could take a look at
Okay I'll give a look thanks.
I'll be back here to explain how it went
i have the same problem..nd i found a working rom manager from 4shared..version is 3.xx something..i can flash clockwork but then again cannot boot into recovery mode...no luck for me i guess
I'm on the HTC Heroine rom and had the same problem.
But I could recover the rommanager apk from Titaniumbackup and it installed.
It is rommanager version 4.3 I think. Not the latest but at least it works
Here is the link.
http://www.2shared.com/file/DqmG6ABU/rommanager43.html
Install notes:
Just open the apk file with your favorite android file browser and install it.
Let me know if it works, I also have an more older version that I can upload on request.

Help needed correct recovery !!

Hi all, ok ive rooted my GS3 and its running 4.1.2 , but my question is that im not sure its going into proper recovery mode as when i put it into recovery it doesnt look like the usual recovery screen !! ie im trying to install the Audio hack zip and flash it but it keeps failing everytime i try, can somebody please help me, also is it because it needs a diferent rom like Omega or something, hope to get some help soon, from
Brian
You need to install Custom Recovery first... (CWM or any other)
Rooting only doesn't include CWM...
Use Odin to flash it.
thankyou
Hi and thankyou for that, so when you say i have to install flash a custom recovery, do you mean i have to install a new rom like omega or something ? and yes i do have Odin.

Just go to original development and you will find a choice of 2 or 3, you can flash them in Odin/cwm/mobile Odin depending on their format so read instructions

First, what ROM did you install? Some ROM's strangely don't come pre-rooted, so you'll need to install SuperSU zip in recovery to be rooted.

I installés thé AOKP's KitKat ROM with the Google apps pack
I did a backup with clockworkmod before so I kept my apps including supersu but obviously it does not work anymore I don't get it. If I install ssu ZIP in recovery will it ne enough to get back my root ?
Wow that's a problem I can't install ZIP in recovery anymore
Maybe something is missing in my phone, something like the bootloader ?

Status 7 error usually means outdated recovery try another recovery like Twrp or a newer version.

Strange Also I take it that you mean you have tried to alter the updater script when you modified the roms?
I would suggest to flash back to stock with Odin and start again and see if that helps sorry I can't be of much more help.

ive tried that for lots of times , so now im using this cm10.2 its working fine but i want to try a custom rom
anyway thanks for help mate
The recovery version must be the culprit. Why dont you install twrp from playstore? There's an app called TWTP manager. After installing twrp dont let the app reboot for you. Reboot it first then reboot into recovery the second time. Then try to install another rom
