so i did a backup of my stock root Rom before flashing saurom rom. and when i thought i washing issues i tried to go back and recover it, but i got an.issues saying md5 mismatch. any ideas what it could be?
Not sure but when you do a backup you should always boot it up to make sure its good before flashing anything

I had the same issue too. I have restored from backup on my Infuse a hundred times and never had this happen. What could we be doing wrong?
Did you guys by any chance flash the modified Touchwiz launcher to gain the extra real estate? I know my MD5 showed as corrupted when I wanted to restore my backup after the revert file failed to work. In my case... browsing to /system/app then seeing and removing TouchWiz30Launcher.odex fixed my problem.
ill.give that a shot
You didn't by chance rename your backup did you? If you did take out any and all spaces
i did rename it actually

yeah im brand new. switched from being an iphone user of like 6 years to the note last week. so idk alot of this stuff. thanks!
Hey Jackson, That is exactly what I did was rename it. Do I simply take the spaces out of what I renamed or is this backup useless now?
---------- Post added at 07:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 PM ----------
Jackson....I went ahead and took a chance on taking out the spaces and it worked perfect. You are a saint imo!
perfect
Yeah when I saw your OP and you said 'my stock root rom' I figured you do what most of us do and name your roms to help remember them... which is a great idea but just be sure to leave out any spaces, i.e., original_stock_root_rom
can anyone give me their nandroid back up of stock rom? I need it to go back to stock..I have to return the device in few days..
I'm just wondering if anybody may have any suggestions as to what I could do to get my phone working again.
I bought my GSIII, in a slightly used condition from a shop and everything was working fine, but I didn't have to bother rooting it as it was already done.
I tried to flash Omega v19 and like an idiot I never made a note of which modem it was using before flashing.
Now I can't seem to get any signal whatsoever, I just get a circle with a line through it instead, although using some modems I can get some sort of signal but can't register on any network.
I've tried quite a few different modems, but can't seem to get any joy, I didn't realize I would need to be so exact with what modem I use, I know some can have a better signal than others, but one of them should work.
I've even tried flashing Samsung Firmware, but still the same Circle with a line through it.
I had the phone for one day and already wrecked it...
I not sure if the phone maybe a polish phone, because some polish TMobile apps and a polish GPS program, after a factory reset, but I thought any international firmware would have been fine to use....
Thanks ...John...
If it is network locked them you might need a polish t mobile SIM, or unlock it....sounds a bit dodgy to me....have you been back to the shop with it?
First thing CHECK YOUR IMEI number... If it is anything starting 00 or 000 it means your EFS folder got messed up... If your IMEI number is ok than download the app from the following link which will help you unlock the SIM... I didnt made the App. I am just sharing it... Credit goes to the creator(whoever he/she may be)...

No, I've not tried to return it to the shop yet. Im guessing he'll just say that it's my own fault. As everything was working fine until I messed about with it.
It's not a locked handset, I bought it as sim unlocked.
I think the T-Mobile apps and startup screen must install when you first set up the phone. He put a sim into the phone for me and thats the same one that I'm trying to get working now.

I'll try and check the IMEI when I get home, I'm In work at the moment.
I noticed a clear efs option in Odin, would this make my situation worse or better, i know some people have cleared a corrupted efs and then edited the nv_data.bin to fix it. Woukd this help.
Assuming the IMEI is corrupted, I did a nandroid backup and the first thing I did was try to restore that, but that didn't help. Should that of restored the efs folder.
Thanks. ....John....

Capt. Chaitanya Patel
I've checked the IMEI, and as far as I can tell everything seems ok, but it could be a different number and I wouldn't know, but at least it's not all zero's.
I tried using the GalaxSimUnlock app, but it tells me that it is unlocked, and I've tried various Sims in it just in case, but no luck.
It's really starting to baffle me now, although that's not very hard.
It works fine when manually or automatically selecting the network, it even says 'registered on network', but then when I try to dial something it says 'not registered on any network'.

Please check your IMEI number and confirm with the one on your box or under the battery...
Follow the instructions on this thread to get your original firmware back.

I forgot about that, I checked under the battery and the two IMEI's are different.
So it is just a question of how I can get it back. It's illegal here in the uk to change an IMEI, but would it be illegal to change it back to the original one.
Failing that could I register the new one somewhere.

Download KC-kTool app from the play store. it is free and you will be able to restore the IMEI number IF THE BACKUP EXISTS, because if you installed the OMEGA ROM than there will be the backup of the EFS folder in your internal memory card. if you cant restore than give me a call. I will explain how to restore it from the backup manually...
The ktool program wanted a efs backup in either bin or tar format, which I don't have. I new I'd probably regret doing it, but when I first realised that I couldn't get any signal I tried messing about with the apn settings, but when that didn't work I restored my backup from clockworkmod. This didn't work so I did a superwipe then tried to install Samsung firmware. So I've lost the majority of what was on the internal sdcard.
I did however, have the sense to copy my nandroid backup to my computer first, and since this was a backup of the original stock rom I don't get why it didn't solve the problem.
What I do have in the efs folder is, a nv_data.bin with today's date for the last edited timestamp, and a nv_data.bak dated 27 August. So this must be a backup of the original file, so would it be safe for me to rename, replace & reboot.
Is my IMEI in the nv_data.bin or is there a bit more to it than that.
Thanks ...John...

I ended taking the phone back to the shop I bought it from, and they fixed it overnight. I'm not really sure how they did it, because when I asked them they just said "we flashed it", but when I got it back it still had the same changed IMEI and somebody else's apps, Photo's, Messages, Google Play account, Email Accounts and even Barclay's Banking Apps.
It's like they took a CWM backup or something from someone else's phone and transferred it to my straight onto my phone.
Anyway, I factory reset it and now It's OK...

I have a temporary solution for you. if you still have the backup of the the EFS folder in your internal or external sd card than follow the following steps,
1. copy ALL the files from the EFS BACKUP FOLDER.
2. go to the root of your your phone with root explorer of ES file explorer and find the folder EFS. it should be with all the system folders like acct, config,data,dev,efs,etc so on and on.
3. now paste all the copied files in to EFS folder. tap on REPLACE THE FILES if ASKED...
4. close the app. and go to the home screen and wait for few seconds.
if your simcard have pin than it will ask the pin after few seconds and if it doesnt have any pin than it will just get the network.
good things is you have your IMEI number restored and can use the phone like regularly. NO PROBLEMS AT ALL.
bad thing is NEVER LET YOUR PHONE SWITCH OFF. If it will switch off than you will have to follow all the steps again... annoying but works... let me know the progress buddy... best of luck...
Sorry I didn't respond earlier, I've only just seen your post.
I'd had the Guy in the shop repair the phone once, and it seemed to work ok, although I still had the changed IMEI. Then I tried to flash an official Samsung Firmware from the SamMobile site and the same thing happened again. Althought I had backed up the efs data this time around, trying to restore from this didn't seem to work. I thought I would be able to restore the new IMEI, but I guess restoring corrupted data is only marginally better than not restoring at all.
I Brought it back and luckily they gave me my money back. So I bought a brand new one instead from O2.
Now I'm a bit nervous about trying to flash it again. Any ideas as to what might causes this problem (bad practice, etc)..
Is it safer to unlock my device with an unlock code or GalaxSimUnlock. (Seems obvious, but I guess a bad unlock code could be just as damaging).
Is it safer to flash through Odin or CWM.
Is there anything else I should take into account besides doing a nandroid backup and an efs backup.
Thanks ...John...

Sorry, I didn't respond earlier, I've been busy with work, and any spare time has been filled with trying to repair a Desire HD for someone (Broken Screen, Digitizer and Trying to root and Debrand it with a v2.00.029. HBoot).
Anyway, I've rooted the phone using Chainfire's CF-root kernel, made a nandroid backup, and I'm trying to make as many efs backups as I possibly can (taking no chances ).
I've made one using busybox to tar the efs directory (although I don't think this will work).
I've made one using EFSPro.
I've use the HC-KTool program that you recommended.
I've also used the GalaxSim Unlock app to unlock & backup the efs data.
Now I was just just wondering how can I verify these backups, because something has happened that has made me question the validity of all my backups.
I tried the built in 'reboot nvbackup' method and the phone rebooted, but I didn't see anything happen. As far as I was aware you're supposed to see some blue writing as it copies the data.
Anyway, no big deal and I got on with what I was doing.
I then tried to use the Synergy Rom backup, where it said 'Backing up EFS if unlocked' and 'Not Unlocked Skipping Backup'.
Any ideas what this means, and how do I get and unlocked efs folder/partition.
An if Synergy can't back it up, how can I be sure the others are ok, too.. I know I'm probably being a bit over cautious this time round, but I don't want to be at the point where I need to use them to find out they are no good.
Thanks ...John...

Your EFS backup should be in two formats depends on the application used.
some apps use TAR.GZ and some use .IMG.
There is one way to confirm the data of EFS backup.
Go to HC-KTools>backup EFS to /sdcard/efs.img
when complete it will ask to SWITCH TO EFS BACKUP CHECK. tap on YES and than on the next screen tap on RUN CHECK.
The result should be last line saying 100% (0 BYTES DIFFER)

Most likely your new phone will not come with ME7, but if it does, you can follow the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2380325, pretty straightforward.
Most likely you are on the older build, which then requires you to first
get it into download mode, flash an older kernel using odin, then root using the motochopper exploit (just a computer USB connection and a click to confirm) and then reflashing the stock kernel.
more info for MDK root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2290798
To install recovery, you can just install an app from the play store, Goo manager, and then follow their instructions. Just involves one download.
Then using TWRP, you can do anything you want. You should know as you have experience.

The only unlocked bootloader is on the dev edition. There has never been an actual unlock for the regular i545. Rather, we had an exploit that, for all intents and purposes, served the same purpose. Unfortunately, but expectedly, it was patched wroth the latest update.

From my understanding, there's only a 16gb dev edition. And only in black.
i ordered a 32gb version. will get it on Wednesday. i hope it comes with MDK and not ME7 ..
So I first got a ME7 from costco but took it back today and told the gal at the kiosk to swap it out but that I would activate it at home, which I did, and did not update. Long story short I have root and custom ROM. Soooo... here is the question. To free up all that space on my internal, so as to not end up with only 6GB available, I need to do a full wipe correct? Then do a fresh flash from sd card? That should give me more of the internal 16GB available minus of course the CM or other ROM i put on + gapps. Thanks for any input!

Only Touch Wizz Camera (comes with stock ROM) has this option.
Theres some cm versions that have that option. I did some googling about it earlier. Why that version doesnt have it, I couldnt tell you. Worse comes to worse you can get a 3rd party app that supports it.

I think that's because twrp settings are on internal storage and every time you wipe it you delete the settings as well. I don't have this issue.

It is not a bug. On last TWRP I set storage settings on external SD but I realized that some people don't have an external SD so they can't save settings. In this version the setting storage is Internal Storage because all people have Internal. Every time you wipe internal storage it resets.

That's quite true, but there's a flip side to it as well: given that we only have ~1.8GB of available storage, most of us are probably using atleast a 4GB sd card. Yes, I said that I don't have this "issue" because I'm too busy with university and I'm not constantly wiping my internal to flash something, but for a certain group of people at vkontakte it's an issue when they're trying out your cm12.1 builds or doing whatever else to their device. It would probably be more convenient for everyone if there was also a build of twrp that saves the settings on external storage..

Nice work man !
Can I install it on KK ? Or I must downgrade to JB? On KK is locked bootloader ?
thanks
Personally I've deleted a couple unnecesary apps that were wasting space, and intend to make Chrome an option for Dual Window again as soon as I figure out how (it was removed, I believe in 11b, and the flex multi window mod is unable to enable it).
As more things occur to me, I'll do more things. What do you all plan to do?
So far, I've only installed greenify and titanium backup.. I'm honestly trying to figure out what else I want to do (been out of the root scene for about a year and a half between this and my old turbo, which didn't receive root until the time I got my v10)

Disable System/OTA updates. See this thread.
Remove bloatware. See this thread.
Install ad blocking software. I am using Adaway via F-Droid.
Enable native Wi-Fi tethering app. See this thread.
I hope custom recovery comes soon.
Trying to get Titanium Backup to work but it keeps telling me I have insufficient storage space when I try to do any backups

It's cause you already have backups stored. Double check your SD card files.
So far I have uninstalled bunch of bloat wares. And I was messing with the Verizon hidden menu so now I got 4g LTE on T-Mobile. Not really sure what I did though

It's either the LG Backup folder in your SDCard or the TitaniumBackup folder. Otherwise I would scan your SDCard.

I dunno how you did that with adb so what did u do

I didn't use adb
I used root explorer pulled it to my downloads folder then I connected the phone to my pc and pull it from there
But to see it in root explorer I had to mount read write options

Tried editing to enable dual window with buildprop editor, rebooted into a bootloop. Recovery has the option to enable USB debugging. Using this, is it possible to undo the change in (for example) terminal emulator, rewriting the original line? That way I wouldn't have to factory reset. I already tried wiping the cache (wasn't expecting it to work, but it seemed harmless).

That made me also go into a bootloop as well. Had to force wipe it again (good thing I backed up).

It might be because you didn't mount the SD card as writable?

To disable OTA updates I just froze the System Update application. Seems to have worked fine.
