hello devs,
i have an international variant GT-I9300 . I upgraded it with the ATO(OPEN AUSTRIA) . After this upgrade ,i was not able to root ...i used the CF AUTO ROOT , SUPERSU , and even mobogeine root method . its getting failed....
please help me devs......i would like to root it...either to get a stable international variant ROM.
If you intend to then flash a custom rom then don't bother rooting your stock firmware, all custom roms are already rooted.
If you want to stay stock then flash a prerooted version via odin, get a link for one on xda in general forum.

so....u mean that....i can flash a custom rom...directly from the stock recovery....without rooting...by just wiping the data and cache??? ........
or else.. sorry for asking this silly question ...i am just a newbie...
No, go read the sticky thread in general forum on how to flash custom recovery then custom rom. Factory reset before you start then back efs.

i checked the whole procedure of it as u told.... but while i am flashing CFROOT but it is showing "FAILED SIGNATURE VERIFICATION" . and the same thing for superSU ......
so...in case if i flash PHILZ RECOVERY or CWM ......without rooting........ will my phone get bricked ???...
Check out Cyanogenmod Installer follow the instrustion it will root and install the latest stable CM for your phone .
You are still missing basic knowledge, you can't flash anything with stock recovery.
Flashing recovery doesn't require root, but you can brick the phone if you don't understand what you are doing.

Hi all, i'm currently with a HTC Desire and the procedure to flash a new ROM was first to flash a moded bootloader and a recovery from which you could just flash any .zip ROMs...
I'm not familiar with samsung, but I see that there is a tool called ODIN which you use to flash.
Can someone explain the difference? Will we always need a PC to flash a ROM or will be there a possibility to have a moded bootloader + recovery?
odin is to flash the .tar roms , mostly stock roms . In Galaxy s series if you have a hacked recovery like cwm 2/3 you can flash .zip roms also .
Diffrence 1%
We are doing the same but flashing the kernel + recovery with ODIN and then everything is the same
Also we are flashing ROM's with recovery, there is no need of PC, just to download the ROM's.
I'm not sure but, the bootloader is unlocked so, do we need to flash modded bootloader !?
Strange to me.

That makes sense!
Мерси, колега.
this is a question, should have been in the general section.... wrong thread. pls read the rules before posting buddy.... & try to keep this forum as clean as possible....
there is not even a single element of development in this new thread.... user has a doubt regarding different ways flashing of ROMs between different brands.....
pls dont repeat the same mistake.... search the forum carefully first, then you post in an appropriate section if you dont find anything what you are looking for....
Recently , i have been watching some Cyanogenmod 9 ICS 4.0.3 ROM video and it seems to be cool. Well my question is if i flash the Cyanogenmod ROM , can i re-flash the stock ROM that i had?
And is it safe to flash a custom rom?

Cool as in not overheating ???
a wipe and flash of stock rom will remove custom rom .
Root and custom roms void warranty and have a slight risk of bricking the phone .
But are usually recoverable .
You need to read the faqs and guides and understand the CM9 instuctions first .

to flash cynogen rom first u have 2 root ur phone please find the thread in original devlopment section regarding the same
u can reflash ur stock rom by dwnld the releavant .tar file adn flash the same thru odin
You can re-flash the stock rom, but just be sure to know which one is your stock rom. Go to settings, about phone and record the info there to be safe. Also back up your current rom using CWM.
There are always some risk in flashing a rom. Some people dont read instructions and cause problems on their phone, some people flash a rom not built for their phone (i9100 VS i9100G), etc.
Yeah i have rooted my device with cf-root. Thanks guys , i'll read some guides about cyanogenmod and flash it.
If your are currently on GB stock rom, Cyanogenmod developer recommends to install ICS bootloaded first,
You should be able to reflash your Stock ROM veriosn from ODIN, as well as custom roms from CWM...
What is bootload? o.o
My current firmware is ICS LP7

No they say to have below some specific ics boot loader, no mention of upgrading your gb boot loader, unless they changed it.
Plus I yet to had any issues with the latest ics or gb bootloaders..

I think he meant boot loader.
But since you already have ICS, you won't need it. Just take the latest CM9 nightly (or ROM based off it), and flash (you'll have to wipe cache data and dalvik too eventually). Make sure you make a full backup of your current stock ROM through CWM as well.

I refer this guide actually : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20841817&postcount=1
I dont know its outdated,
as others are sharing their experiance that you could flash CM9 straight away from your CWM since you are already on LP7 with ICS Bootloader.....
I don't get it... What is a bootloader?. I mean when i flashed with ICS LP7 i didn't put a file on bootloader. I just loaded the PDA .tar file and flashed it..
Soo that means that i have to reflash the stock rom with bootloader?

I dont know the ICS package you flashed had an ICS Bootloader already...
I just gave you the link for Original CM9 developers guide...
Just wait for others recommendation who have already flsahed CM9 from CWM....
Hmm thanks . But i have read in the guide that i can flash it with odin , do i still need the bootloader?
Hello.
I have had a GS3 for a few months now and a few weeks ago my friend showed me how to install the polish jellybean update for my phone (I don't have a polish gs3 but he said it was safe to do ) and it was pretty easy.
I have decided to use a custom rom now. I have already rooted my phone but before I install a custom rom I was wondering how easy it is to go back to the polish version that I have downloaded if I don't like it.
Thanks and hopefully this is the right part of the forum to post this in.

Thank you. If I want to try out different custom roms do I have to go back to official firmware first or can I just install a custom rom over another custom rom?
Hi,
You can flash a custom rom without going back to the "original version" (stock rom that came installed in your GS3) - Just keep in mind that you must do a full wipe in your device (data/cache and dalvik).
You just need to flash the CWM via odin and then flash the custom rom via CWM.
You just need to follow this instructions here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695238)
And than follow the instructions of your favorite custom rom to install it.
Cheers

OK, but he doesn't need to go back to the stock rom before flash another custom rom. To try another custom roms he only needs to do the wipes and follow the instructions of the custom rom to install it.

Of course you can, there are a couple of threads/posts about it. You just need to read them.
And don't worry about the bootloader.

Can i get a conform instruction on how to do this?i prefer not to do this with odin..because i already have a custom recovery...my recovery is CWM 5.0.3...do i need to upgrape my recovery first?
So you want to flash it via CWM, that's a completely different question.
You can also search for that.
Don't wanna flash with odin?
Mobile Odin might be the best tool for you.

i already search for it...i found
1. Stock rooted deoxed rom 4.1.2 <<< -- to install this i need CWM for JB
2. Root on stock recovery <<<< -- to install this i need stock rom and stock recovery
3.CWM on stock recovery <<< --- to install this also need stock recovery
-stock rom and recovery mean using odin...and i dont want to use odin...
From all thing above..i need to know how to do this with ICS CWM that i already have....IF there is anyway pls let me know...
sorry for my bad english...
can at least give me a link to where this instruction on how to do this??
Check out Mobile Odin.
And I think you want the deoxed ROM via CWM.

Hello everyone, greeting from Turkey!
First of all im a newbie for android rooting and romming etc. I ve always used stock roms since ive got this phone. Now Im running a I9100 (int.) with stock Turkish 4.1.2 (XXLS8) on it and i ve rooted it via superuser.zip with my stock recovery.
What i want to do is to install CWM and want to flash a RELIABLE and Long Battery life rom. Are there anyways for me to install a CWM without using odin (via stock recovery). And can you please suggest me a good rom for daily usage. (i want to use vanilla android btw [just like nexus]).
Thank you for your helps.
I don't know much about roms/kernels for the international version, but you will need to flash a stock kernel with cwm and then just choose a rom from your development thread and follow the instructions, don't forget making backups and reading a lot, you can start from flashing cyanogenmod.

As i said i dont know about international version kernels, but it should have a tag like "stock kernel" or something like that if its for stock, just install it and you will have cwm, if its not stock it wont be installed anyway.
