Hello everyone,
Sorry if this is the wrong area, but it felt right at first look. I have a International Galaxy S3, rooted, but still didn`t change the ROM... Since o rooted it to use some apps, I've noticed i couldn't install new updates anymore, so I started looking out for a new ROM.
I got interested in Omega ROM, like this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1720628
My software is still 4.1.2, can I install a 4.2.2 version of Omega, do I need to take some step before?? Besides, is it stable, since it`s not out yet for galaxy s3?? If I install, can I go back to 4.1.2 smoothly??
I'm asking that because I had a Galaxy S1 and had to install a bootloader before changing the room version. Now I'm a little confused...
Thanks for your help

As long as you have an I9300/T you can install any rom, just make sure you do a nandroid before and some wipes as instructed in the thread. The instructions on how to flash e.g. Omega will be in the thread for sure. In addition you have to make sure, at the moment at least, to have the right kernel (e.g. Siyah will not work with the newer 4.2.1/4.2.2 roms).
read the basics first
Hello, guys. I need some help, if you can.
First question is if i need to root my device before installing a 4.2.2 rom. Currently i have 4.1.2 JB, but it's from factory and i haven't got the update from official soft. I don't care why i haven't, but i want it to be done.
I've read thousands of forums about rooting, installing roms and etc, but i still have some questions.
Second one is: If i finally manage to do that update to 4.2.2, what rom should i go to from there on? Stay at 4.2.2 or go further? I need a stable one, i'm not really a andoid geek, but sounds fun to get into it.
Which rom should i trust to install? First of all, i know that if i want to install a newer one, i still need to go from a 4.2.2 so i'm stuck at him for now.
And the most important: Can you provide me a link to instructions? I haven't ever done a root or installed a rom, so i'm virgin in this kind of stuff.
Best regards, Dezaxat.
Up, please ?
Hi,
I am in the process of completely wiping my phone and starting from scratch and thought it would be a good time to try out a few diffrent roms. My plan was to keep the stock rom that came with my phone and install the latest stock rom alongside it. So i would have 4.1.2 (carrier rom) and 4.3 (latest stock rom). Then i discovered that you can dual boot ubuntu os and android and was wondering if anyone had tried this and if so how well it runs. Or if anyone has any better suggestions for a second rom for my s3,
Thanks in advance.
I'm gonna try this in the next couple of days so ill keep yous updated on how it goes.
Hey Guys.

Best regards

The information you provided is not enough .
Do you have any experience in flashing roms ? Is the device unlocked ? which version of android is currently running on the device ?
hi, you need read, read and read and ask, cheers
If it's still running gingerbread then you need to install CM9 at least before jumping to CM11.
Personally I'd install CM9, then CM10, and then CM11.
But before you install any ROMs you'll need to root it and install CWM or TWRP custom recovery.
Well I downloaded the rom and gapp from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2583316 as some as I rebooted it ask
ed. Me if I wanted To download the custom rom. And now its been 8hrs saying downloading. Ok is My tablet bricked, can I flash a stock rom? I'd like to.get kitkat on it though
Ok I have this same device and know it well.
I tried this rom as well and unfortunately it is broken so try another version or ask the devs for a new version. thanks and let us know if this help or if you have found a better solution.
