[Q] from stock to costume - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello , recently i had trouble with network , and thanks god now it's okey on stock rom 4.3 , i want to ask whether i flash my I9300 to an costume like neatrom for exemple , will i have those trouble again ? and Thanks for answering , ( sorry for bad english )

You can and you should go for custom ROMs because they are better from stock one!
But while doing so make sure that you follow the instructions in the developer's main page mainly have a complete factory reset and format your device with each time you flash any custom ROM!
Also make sure that it supports your device or not!
Press thanks if it helped you

Need Help to Flash a Custom ROM ..

hi ..
i have XPERIA NEO with stock kernel and rom .62 ...
i want to flash a stable , fast , supporting arabic custom rom ... as i've searched and read in this forum i think the most suitable rom for me is MIUI (please correct if am wrong , coz am newbie ) ..
the problem now ,, i dont want do anything withoug backing up the stock kernel and rom ,, and to backup i need CWM , to have CWM need root , to root i need to downgrade to .42 what means flashing the current firmware without backup ! (right ?!) ..
so,
1-is there anyway to backup my stock rom ? (coz it supports arabic , and to restore it in case i have any problem in flashing other roms ) ?
2-does downgrade from .62 to .42 means flashing a new fw and every thing in the phone will be erased ?
3-is it mandotary to unlock bootloader if i want to flash MIUI for example (although i dont know whether my phone's bootloader is locked or not !! how to know if there is a way ?)
4-what does the backup option in CWM backup exactly ? kernet + rom + installed app ?
5-which rom u suggest : Stable , good battery , Arabic support.
sorry if too many questions but really need help , coz the current custom rom sometimes have problems , like, sometimes the screen stays on with battery drain and overheat !
thanx in advance..
You will get all the answers reading the threads around, really no need to open a thread for your own questions. Happy search!

[Q] strenght signal icon not working

Hi everybody! I've got an S3 NoBrand rooted, mounting PAC rom with kernel stock (tryed also googy's kernel) and stock modem.
After installing the first coocked rom 1 month ago (the CM10.2) I found a "secondary" problem to which I have never given much importance but now I would like to solve
From the first boot with the new rom the phone marks me as there is no signal. In fact, although there is network and you connect to the Internet without any problems, the strenght signal icon remains "empty" (see picture to understand better).
[Can't post image because of limited powers of new users]
I have found out that did not depend on Cyano as it lasted one day before I've changed it with the PAC but this issue has remained unresolved ..
I have already tried full wipes data,cache, devilk and cleaning then changing the kernel!
Sorry if I used a bad English but I've already asked on the Italian forum but unfortunately without success!
I'm counting on you!!
THANKS! :good:
(sorry made a wrong post and can't delete it =S )

Could u help me finding where to download the stock rom?
I've found out that it depends on the model number or something like that but I can't get how to discover it!
up :/
Try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32664154&postcount=4
The first website (samfirmware.com) should give you the stock ROM you need
I've installed the stock rom and the Signal icon is working again!
Anyone knows why is giving me such a problem with the other ROMs?
Can't I do anything about it?

5 : Any way of backup the correct rom in case of fail? I tryed CMW recovery and this **** show me an error when starting the procces of backup haha I read on forum this happens because of stock ROM and Kernal , So i will not need backup , in case of fail , i will just download the files from samobile >odin > and done right?

1. Against forum rules to answer this. Read the sticky.
JB is not necessarly faster, it depends on how you use your device. Yes the software is an improvement in some cases but, as said, doesn't mean that it's faster.
2. You can root with custom kernel, and if you flash a rom they always come with a kernel. JB kernles are free from brickbug, the only vulnerable version was 4.0.4.
3. Read 2
4. Rooting process? C'mon there are thousands of root guides all over the internet (especially XDA).. if we spoonfeed you the appropriate information, you wont learn much. So go search for a guide yourself, they all fit for different people.. and one of them will fit for you
5. CWM is the best way to backup, it literally backups everything. Yes, it will work much much better on custom kernels.
6. Yes your phone will work on your carrier even if you install custom roms.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH ! I feel more ready about modding my phone now thanks to you ! For now i dont have other questions !
forgot to ask ! how may i install multiwindow? I know i will need jelly bean , but what exacly version? and how i can find the needed scripts? thanks again !
Multi window isn't officially available on the S2.....there is at least one custom ROM which offers this, but you'll have to research it.....
Hint....look for the sticky thread for a list of ROMs and scroll to stock or Sammy based and you'll find it at the beginning of the alphabet lol......
