Hey Guys.
So I have a Tab 10.1, bought by me in the UK, tho I believe the model I have is a French one (bought it from Expansys) as that's the language it started up in.
I have tried to root my tab, using this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239185/
However, no matter what rom I try to install, my screen ends up flickering with lots of lines across it, after about 5 mintues, rendering it useless. I have tried to install a stock rom, and unroot using Odin. I downloaded Root Checker from the market and it says I am now not rooted. I am currently running a stock 3.1 Rom.
But I don't know what to do now. Whatever rom I seem to choose to flash I still get the flickering issue.
I also got the flickering in CWM, but got it working using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27830023&postcount=41
but it didn't stop the flickering when I installed a new rom.
Can someone help, pleaseeeeeeee? :fingers-crossed:
Ok, I seem to have fixed the screen flickering.
I did this by flashing the file P7510XABKMN_P7510UEKMM_HOME.tar.md5 (which was in a file I found called sgt10.1_root_unroot) through Odin.
I'm not sure how to root and/or flash now as I don't want the same problems again.
I have no CWM because when I boot into recovery I have no option to install zip from SD card.
My About Section tells me:
Model Number GT-P7510
Android 3.2
Build No. HTJ85B.UEKMM P7510UEKMM
So I am guessing I have managed to get a stock rom back on the device, which has solved the flickering isses.
I have no Superuser and so am not rooted.
My aim is to install Tasker 14.
Does anyone know the reason why I got the flickering from Clockwork, and how I can flash without getting it?
Going to go to bed now since I've rescued its functionality! I'll get back on trying to flash it tomorrow.
Thanks
So I managed to root and install CWM again, flickering seemed to not exist.
I then tried to flash Task 14 and have the screen flickering again.
I flashed the bootloader file before I did any of this, as of these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27830023&postcount=41
Hope u have got the solution now

Thanks for your reply.
Weirdly, the AOKP, CM9, and my current rom Overcome all work on my tablet, without the screen issues. The only time I get the screen scrambling is when install Task 14 (tried both fat and slim versions). This is on a clean install.
No idea why this is. But I'm happy the screen issues are sorted and I'm now running the modified honeycomb rom that is Overcome. Just got to wait for the Camera drivers for ICS

My Galaxy S3 GT-I9305 LTE was running Liquid Smooth 2.37. Recently I lost notification and phone ring sounds and now I have lost baseband and I have no cell signal.
In the phone's 'about' section the baseband field is empty. Android version showing is 4.3.
I'm not quite sure what I did wrong, first to try and get back the sounds and then baseband, I have been playing around with various custom and stock ROMS and kernals to get full functionality back.
I've read tons of help posts but nothing works.
Here's a few of the things I've tried with results in brackets, used CWM recovery to restore working backup (failed 'unsupported file' message),
reflashed kernals (neither Boeffla nor yank555 have worked, wipe/data restore in CWM (it still takes me back to 4.3 with no baseband).
I thought I'd re-flash back to the phone's original stock ROM using Kies, but the weird thing is Kies doesn't restore, it upgrades to the latest 4.3 ROM which fails to restore baseband.
I wanted to send the phone back to the 4.1.2 it came with or was it an earlier ROM? I can't remember as I didn't note it down, I bought the phone second hand, it arrived loaded with a stock ROM for Australia's Optus network. I promptly rooted and flashed the phone to Liquid Smooth and the phone ran fine for months on the 2 Degrees Network in New Zealand.
Anyway, I must have tried reflashing a dozen stock roms I've found online using Odin. Some of them partially work, I get sound back, (it seems only the 4.3 ones work, with the german I9305XXUEMKC reliably loading - it even gives me a NZ english install option) but don't restore the baseband
. All the ones I've found for Optus are rejected, I get the 'unsupported device' or status 7 error in Odin.
So I decided to flash one that works, install cwm, root the phone and try installing different baseband kernals to fix the (probably corrupt) efs.
But I'm going round in circles trying to root the phone. Using CWM, supersu shows as successfully installed, but when I boot into the OS root checker shows my phone is not rooted. Knox seems to obstruct every attempt I make to disable it as well. I keep getting these 'knox stopped etc...from working messages'.
I'm sorry if my description is a bit confusing, I'm happy to clarify anything.
I'm at my wits end. I want to try everything before I have to ship the phone off to a repairer who may charge me hundreds of dollars to fix the phone.
This is I9300 not I9305 Q&A
Use the report button and ask a mod to move to the correct forum .
I can offer no help as i fail to understand the post .
As said before you are in wrong place and are not giving us a clear question to answer. If its a root problem there are fixes for it. Status 7 error is discussed in many threads. Flashing MG4 modem fixes efs problem. Downgrading causes problem. Learn to search before making a thread.
So the other day my S3 gave up the ghost, and developed the hard-brick "QHSUSB_DLOAD" error. I have insurance so I was overnighted a new phone, and am sending the old one away. I believe this was related to a long-term power button issue I was having, perhaps a virus, or something. I had not changed anything to the ROM I was using since about October, and the issue just happened now in May.
At any rate, the new S3 I received is an MJB version, Android 4.3, Knox and all that other good stuff. After several failed attempts, I found a method to root this phone and disable Knox. The Warranty Bit is already tripped, so clearly I'm not sending this phone back until it hard bricks as well. I am trying to install the StockMOD ROM that is very popular, however I am being plagued by problem after problem.
I was able to flash a version of CWM Recovery onto my phone, but it was too old and couldn't mount any of the folders. Using ROM Manager, I was able to flash an update to my Recovery, and now it mounts and views all folders properly. However, when I go to install the StockMOD ROM, I continuously get a Status 7 error, something about "expects 5 args, got 3." I wiped the data, cache, and Dalvik, but kept getting this error. So, I had to recover my backup of stock, which didn't go well either. Once my backup was installed, all of my apps kept crashing. Gapps, ROM Manager, everything kept giving me constant FC errors. I had to wipe my data, cache, and Dalvik again and go back to factory default, and reinitialize the phone. Luckily I haven't installed anything of importance on here yet.
A quick search through here states that I need to use TWRP as my Recovery. I've flashed TWRP several times, first using the 2.6... version and then the most recent 2.7.0.0 version, and neither of these will mount any of my folders. It just gives me a litany of errors trying to mount the various locations. I've done Fix Permissions and everything else, TWRP will just NOT mount anything. Other folks say I need the latest PhilZ Recovery. I've downloaded the latest PhilZ Touch 6 and flashed it via Odin. It is giving me the same errors as regular CWM, Status 7, "expecting 5 args, got 3."
I don't know what else to do. My S3 that ran Android 4.0 was so much easier. I had that thing rooted and running a TW based ROM with Nova launcher in about 30 minutes. This phone has been a disaster since I turned it on. I'm just trying to get a 4.3 TW based ROM. I like the Samsung Camera, Calendar, Clock, Messaging, and Contacts apps far better than AOSP versions. But I also want much more customization to my notification drawer toggles. Stock TW doesn't have the toggles I use frequently like the data toggle as well as the torch toggle.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong, because unlike a lot of folks out there, once I find a ROM I like, I stick with it. I'm not constantly updating, changing, or searching for the newest version of Android. There's nothing wrong with that, it just isn't my cup of tea. So does anyone know what I need to do? At this point, I'm about to just give up and use Nova over top of rooted stock TW and call it a day.
Thanks!
Have you tried to go back stock rom using Odin ? I think it might resolve your recovery problem

Everything is stock except the recovery. I'm using CWM 6.0.4.7 with PhilZ Touch 6. I'm still using the stock TW 4.3 ROM that shipped with the phone. The only exception is that I'm rooted now.
I suggest you to go back to a 4.1 official stock rom with odin to be sure to have no more issue.
This can help you : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/restore-to-stock-rom-galaxy-s3-i9300-t2187081
Also, don't forget to backup your apps with titanium backup and all your sms :good:

Unfortunately, I've heard that it is not possible to revert to anything prior to 4.3 once a phone comes factory installed with 4.3, due to all of the security enhancements and etc. My kernel, modem, and baseband are all factory stock 4.3 MJB. Everyone else on the boards, under various other topics, warn of immediate and sudden death to the phone if you attempt to install a baseband prior to 4.3 MJB.
I'm very surprised to hear that, because recently i've flash stock 4.3 rom and then go back to 4.1.2 to flash a 4.4 rom without any issue and i've got nothing for issues.
Maybe it depends on which country you are ( i'm from France ) ? For what i know , there is a VERY little chance that this downgrade cause dammage to your phone

I'm in the USA. The security features on the I747 US version are far different. I don't know how everyone else is succeeding. I am completely lost.
You are in the wrong forum, anything you try from here will hard brick your phone.

Sorry to tell you that, but what you say is not completely true.
Yes, there is a lot of people that rush to give an answer to the question, but there is also people that really like to help people that are in trouble :good:
Please, don't take most of the case for a generality

Yes, i've read this, i know that, that's why i talk about the difference between country, different phone model
My apologies. Thought this was the 747 board. Go ahead and lock this, I'll repost in the correct forum.
Tried TWRP?
Greetings,
I own a Galaxy S3 GTI 9305 on the Three UK network. that a while ago got upgraded to Android 4.3. The software update gets on my nerves and has numerous problems (such as no text message bleeps unless you set a text message bleep for someone) and eating battery life like there is no tomorrow unless you hoik the screen brightness down to nothing.
Needless to say, it's driving me up the wall and I want to install a custom ROM.
The phone has been flashed with Odin, and I used the boot recovery p workaround and SuperSU shows up. However, this super paranoid Knox software has a dislike to the SuperSU app and blocks it.
The phone comes up with ClockworkMod recover if you press volume up, menu and power and I have put a custom ROM and the Gapps file on there.
The thing is, will this phone be able to run the custom ROM as normal (on the basis of ClockworkMod being on there and apparently functioning ok) or is there further nasty surprises that will prevent me such as a locked bootloader?
Apologies for possibly asking this question ad nauseum on the basis that it may well have been asked before.

have you tried installing the latest stock firmware from 3 I noticed a big improvement in performance and battery life. The I9305 XXUENE4 based firmware either stock or custom fixes a lot of the issues I was having.

It's running on the latest firmware, and I still have problems. I absolutely hate it and want to run a custom ROM. What concerns me more is the possibility of a locked bootloader and being stuck with what Samsung and Three UK telling me what I should run on my phone.
Hi guys, ive got a Galaxy S3 which lately was running on Philz Touch CWM + one of the latest ArchiDroids, unfortunaly ive encountered an issue where sometimes people with whom ive been talking to stopped hearing me after a while. The only solution for that was taking the phone away from my face, then waiting till the screen lights up, and that always solved the issue for that particular call. Ive stopped using that phone since ive got a new one, however i want to get it working again, thats why i wiped whole phone and installed a stock samsung rom through Odin. Now im wondering if flashing the "I9300XXUGNG3_I9300XEOGNG1_I9300XXUGNA8_HOME.tar.md5" through the PDA box in Odin updates the modem as well? If not, any place where i can find a proper modem for Poland? Ive found a topic with modems however none for my region.
Of course it does.
