Downgrade S3 to KitKat from Lollipop
So I installed Ressurection Remix Lollipop rom on my s3 but it' has to much bugs. I want to go back to kitkat. I tried to flash a kitkat rom but it failed and i can't find any instructions on the web. Could someone please help me ? Thanks in advance.
Did you wiped data and cache before installing?
TWRP recovery is the best nowadays.
Wipe Cache/dalvic after installation.
If you used Arter kernel on 5.1.1 based rom, then you should flash stock firmware via odin in order to gain wifi again.

Hi!
I know that this is my second post today in this section, but I'm newbie in flashing on i9100 (my prevorius phone: i9001 and i was having such a fun with customing him ). Can I flash CyanFox 4.4.2 on i9100 if I have stock 4.1.2 with Siyah v6.0 beta 5? Correct me if I'm wrong: after reading main posts in CyanFox 2.0.2 i must flash CyanFox recovery, then flash ROM (with wiping and all this stuff) and then install gapps. I'm asking because in Resurrection Rom (KitKat) I read that i can't flash their rom when I'm using 4.1.2 (only 4.2.2 or higher).
you are partly right . You must flash a custom recovery which is compatible with kitkat roms . follow this -->( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2546597 ) and you can then flash any kitkat based custom rom . All The best and hope i helped you
Hello users,
Currently I am running CM12 with Lollipop 5.0.2 in my S3.
Can someone please explain how I can change my current ROM (CM12 with Lollipop 5.0.2) and install CyanogenMod 11 with KitKat 4.4.4 ?
Please, step by step, very thanks, regards.
Full wipe, follow the guide for your new rom.

Hey everyone, this is my first thread on this huge community. Can someone suggest me a custom ROM that can be flashed using ODIN or Mobile ODIN or via CWM 4.0.x.x? I've tried twice to install the 6.0.x.x version, but in both cases I soft bricked my device
I am searching for a Stable ROM, possibly kit kat or higher (but an improved version of Jelly Bean would be OK).
I would really like a Lollypop Custom ROM, but, as I sad before, I failed twice. Thanks for your help!

Hello,
You should update your recovery to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/kernel-t2291756
You cannot flash a kitkat or a lollipop ROM with a CWM 4.0.X.X recovery as it is very old.
Once you've installed the above mentioned latest Apolo kernel, you can go ahead and flash any other ROM normally as you would do with any other recovery.
Regards
