If I was you and having these problems, the first thing I would do would be to run the RUU and get back to stock. Easiest way to find out if it's the Rom or the phone.
in ur settings to a factory reset
You are on a rooted phone and you are going to return it due to errors that might be a result of the root?
No root and I mean no ROOT is perfect and each phone can act differently. Try to reflash again and clear out all your data/cache and try it again.
Try another ROM just to see.
Yet another user error. This is YOUR fault. Heck they could report your to HTC if they didn't like you.
WoW just wow. You talk to me like I am the biggest noob on the forums.
For your information the root was fine for over 2 weeks and this just started last Friday. I had a launch evo and rooted it the first day it was available. Also I flashed back to stock ruu and had the same problem.
Maybe before you open your mouth and let the **** flow out ask yourself a simple question : Is my comment going to help or just make me look like an ass.
Also I would like to comment on the fact I am pretty good at phone jailbreaking and rooting. I know how to read guides and I have been doing this kind of stuff since the pocket pc's. I have never ran into a much ruder group then the people that posted on this topic. Heck even a rom dev talked to me nicer then you guys did when I asked about a project he hadn't worked on in months.
I have returned my EVO but haven't lost hope in you guys. Just let me know if you guys ever apply at my work so I can avoid you at all costs.
Note: This only applies to the ones that deserve it. Thanks for mentioning the stock RUU Roman G, and for mentioning the factory reset toenail78. I had already tried that but to no avail. Also note I even told the store I rooted the phone and flashed it back to stock and neither worked and they were just as puzzled as I was. I am not your 15 year old teenager, but thanks for treating me like one.
I'm still confused as to why anyone would ever return this phone except for physical damage(screen ripping off). Everything software based can be fixed. And its only been 2 weeks. In another 2 weeks, we'll probably have Gingerbread running on this thing. The devs here are simply just amazing. Hell i got these errors BEFORE i rooted. So I'm guessing it was just the network being raped by a new device. I haven't seen them for awhile now.

You asked people to make assumptions, so thanks for being so offended by it. You come here with an immature ultimatum, "Help me or I'm sending this back!" and give us no other information. Only your signature gives any information about your phone, "rooted." Now you fly off the handle and insult everyone.
Probably because your an apple fanboy and god hates you.
It has nothing to do with being a "noob" or "super cool neeto phone pro". I has to do with the ultimatum of returning a phone that you messed up.
Everything will be ok.

Yeah, I'd like to know where in your original post we could safely assume you knew what you were doing. You gave absolutely NO information, except that you have no patience. This is a developer's forum, which means if you don't give out useful information that people can use to help you, they're going to assume you don't know what you're doing.
I simply asked if anyone knew about these errors. I didn't say fix them.
BTW if I was an Apple fanboy I would have preordered a iPhone 4 instead of the EVO. But sorry your way off on that lol. I am just a gadget person. My iPad and MacBook are for work and school. Heck if I wouldn't be getting so much for my student loan I would of never gotten either, well maybe the iPad because it was a great replacement for the iPhone.
I am going to stick with android, and going to go buy a Nexus One. I am thankful for your guys help, sorry if I offended anyone but it just struck a nerve. This is the reason I don't post on forums often for help. Anyways I will keep an eye on the EVO for future possible purchase. I guess when it came down to it, the screen issue (separation and faulty grounding), the meh battery life (I didn't say it was bad it was just sub par), the 30fps limit (which shows), and the poor service in my area were the downfalls for me with the EVO.
I hope you guys all have better luck then me and enjoy your great phone.
I love that your screen shots show the Evo battery as yellow. Thats the only color my battery ever is...
Im wondering why you didn't just exchange the phone for a new one if you suspected a hardware problem?

The screen separation isn't rampant, and a silly reason to dump the phone if you're not suffering from it.
I have a Nexus One and an EVO 4G. I also have every version of the iPhone from day 1, and should be receiving an iPhone 4 this afternoon if FedEx delivers as promised, so I can speak to each of these with some experience.
I think you'll be EXTREMELY disappointed in the Nexus One if you switch to it after having an EVO 4G. The Nexus One's screen is over-saturated and biased towards too much, I mean TOO MUCH, red. The camera puts a large pink blurred circle into every picture you take. The touch input is very flakey, regardless of ROM you use. It's almost impossible to type accurately on it unless you install Swype or ShapeWriter. It's extremely difficult to see the screen outdoors - I couldn't even get a podcast playing while walking to lunch the other day until I found a big shade tree to stand under. Battery life on the Nexus One is probably the worst of any phone I've ever owned, though that may be a network lack of signal issue (T-Mobile). Speaking of T-Mo, if you get T-Mobile version instead of AT&T you can look forward to lots of missed calls and lots of no 3G coverage areas.
The Nexus One has some great features, including the awesome speaker phone and noise canceling mic, a beautiful hardware design that puts even the legendary styling of iPhones to shame, and it fits great in your hand. And don't forget the fantastic ROMS by Cyanogen and Modaco, but if you're not happy with an EVO 4G I think we'll see you posting over in the Nexus One sections soon enough with some ultimatum about "fix the touchscreen or I'm returning this phone" or some other such issue.
Good luck with whatever phone you pick, because with Android phones, there's ALWAYS some glitch or flaw with the phone that will annoy you, and there's ALWAYS a much better phone coming out next month or two (Droid, then N1, then Desire, then EVO, and upcoming Galaxy S). iPhones have issues too, but at least with your iPhones you don't have to worry about a new better model but once per year - but then you have far fewer options for hacking and the latest hardware. ;-)

I know it's too late to help in this instance, but in the future try asking your questions over at ppcgeeks. They play nicer over there. Most of us here on xda seem to have personality problems and can't play too well with others. You said you might try a nexus one. I have one of those too. I prefer the Evo hands down... If I were you I would go back to Sprint and buy another Evo, You will be much more satisfied down the road. Don't let these folks get under your skin!!
i know its a late reply but ill post anyway. i had the exact same problem. a sprint tech helped me out and called me throughout the day to see if it was working. basically he helped me do a reset of the phone to attempt a fix of the low reception. after that we had to grab a tower and because the tower was down i was getting the exact same problem as OP.
he noted that the phone couldnt be processed in the system yet because of the tower so he would call me and let me know if it went through or not. and if it did to continue troubleshooting it.
i kept on trying all day and it went through a couple of minutes before he called me as if he knew i got through. then it was fixed.
dont remember what we did because we entered a bunch of numbers in the dialer, but i know we reset everything and updated everything. it was durring the update that was causing the problems and recurring errors like what the OP had.
if its rooted id say update but i dont know which not to update since you could lose root. i would unroot, run all updates and register phone automatically and if it works then root. if not call tech and see if it can be registered automatically somehow. when it works, root.
just posting this for future reference because i didnt see anyone mention something like this here

UPDATE 8-30-11 @ 0900 CST
Dev update 8-30
general update for all projects
Ok guys, guess who's semi-back
short story long....
Left arm-much better now
Right arm....whoa, real bad, can hardly move it.
Projects im going to cover and then paste in all my threads..
Pardon any grammar issues, spacebar is all fubar on the laptop
Roms,
VZW & Sprint GB 2.3.4
MIUI
CM7
Kernels,
VZW & Sprint
First the Kernels.......
I started back to work on the kernels saturday. Trying a few things here and there, got some boot ups, got some boot loops. of course the goal is and always will be 100% CWM, EXT4 with auto convert, 3G and of course a seperate kernel for Sprint and Verizon. I ammaking progress. Soon i hope.
I have compiled a few test kernels, was testing on my "dev" tab (its a verizon model that has no 3G) when i bricked it, hardbrick. was my fault, should haveknown better, so I started using my daily driver tab that has 3G, I am down to just the one tab now, which sucks because I use the tab for pretty much all forms of typing based communication, gtalk, texting, email as its easier on my hands than the phone or the pc keyboard, even still i need a larger tab like the xoom, or other 10" tab so i can reduce hand cramping when using it.
Roms,
As far as the roms are concerned, im going to pull Version 2.0 links, put Version 1.0 links back up, to many issues with 2.0 and the theme i think.
Future builds will now be as stripped down, themeless, with a basic launcher, no bells and whistles. I will be releasing as close to a non TW as I can until done with CM7 so I can use that for the base. Ill explain more as that time gets closer.
For now, I recommend using 1.0 on both Sprint and Verizon, and if you need 3G stick with the factory kernel and recovery, if you use the tab for wifi only, and do want CWM+ext4, then there is the perfect kernel avaliable now, ill post the links to stock, and custom kernels.
MIUI/CM7
MIUI, yeah I havethe build released, yes i did work on it a bitmore before my right arm went on strike, yes I will continue, i kinda liked it. But for it to really work 100% I need to finish CM7
CM7.
CM7, the one everyone is waiting for, the build I need to go to more advanced builds for other roms, the base I need for as AOSP as we are going to get, the base I need for MIUI, Oxygen, AOSP, Honeycomb,etc
Im now focusing 100% on CM7, starting almost from scratch, I nuked my dev machine and started fresh in hopes that any issues i may have been experiencing were due to a botched setup. best way to find out, nuke and re-install all dev tools. I am tooling up and syncing CM7 today.
Honeycomb.
Yes, I said it.
I am and will be picking up where Spacemoose left off with Honeycomb. First thing i will release will be a re-release of his v2.5, however I will be including the Audio and BTHID fixes I did for him back then that never made it to a release. Those fixes take care of the ability to use headphones, or exterior speakers and allowing you to plug in and unplug and it switches from headphones to internal speakers, and the audio sounds wicked effing good to, i was shocked. it was these 2 fixes i did that got me into developing, and the first of any dev work i did. BTHID, cant tell you how well it works, maybe im a jerk, but i see no point in mouse/keyboard on a touch screen device small enough to hold, and i dont have BT mouse/keyboard anyway.
Version 3.0, or 2.9, whatever, its the 3G version. I have it, have always had it, supposidly the 3G works, is recognized, however upon booting the damn phone app force closes so much the actual system is almost impossibleto use, or test the 3G, that will be a side project.
Physical abilities,
Well so some of yall understand what is going on with me,because all i do is mention arm pain, ill explain...
Last year I was hurt at work. I fractured a vertibre, and my disc's L1-L5 vary from split, hemmoraged, herniated, and even one has a piece that broke off.
Itsucks sitting because I have 2 nerve bundles that are pinched, so my legs go numb, and it also hurts to sit. alot of the time any period longer than 10 minutes results in both legs going fully numb, and i cant stand on my own for 20 minutes following, kinda funny sometimes cause if that happens i start to look like david hasselhoff trying to get a burger....
Also, this goes for both arms...
Both inner and outer joints in elbows damaged. Tendon damaged and seperated in elbows and forearms, nerve damage that can only be described as pure suck is also known as full on carpal tunnel in both wrists, have 40% sense of feeling in all fingers, pinky, ring, middle and thumb are constantly numb, tingle, and hurt. Left elbow feels a bitbetter now, right arm, i cant even support the weight of my tablet in any way shape or form, arm has a brace from shoulder to fingers, and in a sling that keeps it to my chest to keep from moving anyway. sucks, but you make adjustmentsin life.
So, i got help from my wife, and friends to make a desk i can stand at, and a platform that raises my mouse and keyboard up and almost to my neck so i can use the mouse as i am a righty. I have been taken off work since december, and probably will either not be able to go back to janruary, or...at all if these nutbag dr's cant fix me and im labeled disabled for life. I no longer stress out over this, and just keep moving forward.
So it gives me all day and night 7 days a week to work at a computer if i can pending the pain in arm is not bad enough, standing actually feels much better for my back. I watch my 2 kids all day while i make my wife go to work ( lol ) and feel like Mr. Mom sometimes, my 4 year old daughter helps so much, its gotten to the point where its actually fun trying to teach her how to do things to help me, she knows how to use the macbook, and calls it the "Apple" without me ever telling her it is an apple, she obviously knows what an apple symbol is....duh.
Wife supports me spending all evening and weekends on pc, knowing i like doing this, so the ability to do this is there. I wont lie, going from a nice income to almost nothing sucks, put us behind, and yes I will end up selling anything needed to make sure my kids have a house, food, electricity before i have a tab, multiple tabs, computer, woodshop, etc. They are above and beyond way more important than anything else inmy life, so dont feel sorry for me, it's the responsible thing to do, and if it ever gets to the point where i have to ditch the remaining tab, then i will upload all work, source, material, etc, and create a writeup for all projects for someone else to pick up. that way yall aint left hanging without a CDMA developer anymore.
Now this is the most important thing of all.....
I am not doing this for the donations, or for the income, etc. I do this because i enjoy it, i have the time to do it, and it keeps me occupied during the day and its fun. Nothing i mentioned above is to gain a pity party, **** happens, and there are people out there who have it worse than i do financially, physically, etc.
So, if you feel the absoloute need to get in touch with me, my gtalk is the same as my username here. same for email. I am bad about getting back to people because i reserve typing for dev work, it does suck trying to type, i am more of a phone person, i wear a headset, its easier on my in alot of ways. I'm sorry but i can not give any type of tech support via gtalk right now, it would eat up an entire day to just troubleshoot 1 tab and it's unique issues, sorry but i cant, got some pointers on building kernels, stuff like that, feel free to jump in.
So, there you go, a well rounded and long ass update posted in every one of my threads, lol, just to drive people nuts i suppose. Next update should be with new projects.
Jim
=======================================================================================================================================================================================================
Version 2.0 of Future Echos
Changelog
Created and built TouchBlur theme.
New TouchWiz 4.5 with rotation fix and extras
Details
Ok, Only issues I was aware of, no rotation in TW, long press on screen, the bland look of Samsung's Tab, and of course 3G with the custom Kernel.
Call it a port of Moto Blur, dont call it a port of Moto Blur, however you can call it not finished. Ver 3 will see other apps matching the rest of the rom
TouchWiz Launcher
There are so many version of TW4, and 4.5 out there for anyone to grab, i hope nobody thought i pulled some rabbit out of a hat, yes i spent the time to make sure it would work, and 2 out of the 11 versions i tried worked. I released one of those versions in V1 of the build.
I have reached out to both Devs on those projects, one of them is abondonedware that I have taken over for future releases, the other one I asked the Dev if i could strip out his build and include it in my second release, as well as theme it as i have, and he gave me the blessing to do that.
What Works in TW 4.5
Long press on home screen
Rotation (enable in settings, reboot tab)
Themed, and left Original Dev's Donate link in settings
I use Smart Keyboard Pro with HTC theme. I wont include as it is a paid app in the market.

Installation Instructions.
READ ME
First, get Heimdall 1.1.1 Why? Because thats what I use, if you choose to use a different version, I can not provide support.
I use 1.1.1 because it works, I've always used it, i see no point in upgrading something that is not broken.
Heimdall 1.1.1 Windows
Heimdall 1.1.1 OSX
There are 32 and 64 bit versions for Linux.
You will lose all of your data and apps, it is a requirement to wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik. Any deviations will result in a non working system.
Unzip package.
Open Heimdall
Put Tab into download mode
Place Filesystem in the filesystem
Place zimage in kernel
Place zimage in recovery
IMMEDIATELY upon first boot!!! force tab into recovery.
WIPE DATA
WIPE CACHE
REBOOT
This method has worked on many tabs over the past week. These are the methods and tools I use.
If you do not wipe data and cache, you will boot loop.
Even if you do not bootloop, i doubt Touchwiz will run.
Touchwiz.....
press menu and go to preferences.
Select Homescreen Settings
Check "Landscape Mode"
Reboot Tab
You now have rotation.
The Donate button in the TouchWiz settings, is for the original Dev is built the app. I did not remove his Donate button. If you wish to donate to me, use the link in my post, if you wish to donate to him, use the donate button in the app.
The Rom has 3G data access
The Rom does not have a custom Kernel and recovery yet.
You can not flash any other kernels from any other devs unless it is for your tab, ie: Sprint kernel for Sprint Tab, Verizon Kernel for Verizon Tab.
Spacemoose and I are working on a 3G enabled Kernel.
Have fun, enjoy, see ya for V3.0
Better Than Life Future Echos V2.0 GB V 2.0 HERE
If you like my work, feel free to donate.
..
Changelog and Updates
Update 8-7-11
Uploading new Sprint only build right now. I have no way to test the 3G ability, however I am sure ya'll be nice enough to let me know if it works.
From now on, I will work on what I am calling "the twins" the Sprint and Verizon Version together at same time, Both Carriers will recieve IDENTICAL builds now.
Enjoy.

Nice... Thanks Jim, Us CDMA Tab owners appreciate it!! Can you overclock the Kernal for us... 1.4 - 1.6GHz?? Maybe even some Voodoo Lagfix??
wow, weeks or is it months of watching and waiting...very cool.
Yes Sir. Thank you Jim.... We do appreciate all the time and effort...
Well done Jim! can't wait to test that bad boy out!
Very Well Done!
Cant wait to see what this becomes
It's so...b e a u t i f u l !
Updated OP
hope surgery goes well man, and thank you for everything
there are scripts floating around that will convert back and forth between rfs and ext4.. so those might help in the process if the CWM install doesn't automatically do it.
I hope all goes really well with your surgery. Us CDMA folks have been waiting forever and a day, but it will not hurt us any more than your constant pain is, so handle your stuff First. We can wait longer, no big deal.

I concur with vabeach454. We can wait, even if we are impatient. I wish you luck on your surgery, may there be no complications.
I am excited about this. Good luck with your surgery.
This will b awesome but take care of yourself first. We will wait.

you need to release a rom for us. After your suregery you may not be able to even scratch your own ass or even hold a tab.

I am.......effing tore up right now, ****.
But, ......but......however.......so........it..... lol
I am going to pop a few dozen pain pils, and get to work today. I want this damn kernel released tonight. I am so kernel out tonight.
Spacemoose built the first one, i compiled the second one after pulling the ext4 module out, still wont boot a rom on my tab, however, that poor tab, so abused, i am shocked it boots at all.
Ill get with Dan when he wakes up, try a few things with his help, maybe get a basic kernel with recovery only released, and worry about the bells and whistles next week.
Damn, my **** is killing me, but i cant sit around and keep a forum full of half ass ****, gotta wrap up Psirens, release Cassandra, release this kernel, so i can get back to the CM7 i started. The surgery taxed my bank account today, damn co-pay, ****.
I tried pulling a Vanilla Sky, but the Dr's wouldn't let me sing. lol
Dude, seriously. It's all good, they're just ROMs. Put down the SDK and rest. Our need for your work is less than your need to focus on your health.
I am running Syndicate Rom Frozen 1.2 with the Genocide kernel and cannot download any picture messages while on 3g. I have tried multiple messaging programs, cleared cache/date, etc. but nothing seems to be fixing the issue. I can, however, download them on Wifi. I have tried to turn off wifi and just use 3g as I understand that can cause issues, but it doesn't help. Any suggestions?!?!?
Dude seriously froyo???

I agree. Froyo is pretty much unofficially unsupported. I'm sure his wife would love CM7.

While I appreciate your reading my question and offering a response, I would appreciate responses relating to my question. My wife likes the way this rom looks and feels and just needs to know if there is a fix. Thanks for any help you can offer.

I would say ditch 1.2 its old there is no further development for it as of right now. You should at least b running gingerbread (hell a lot of us are on ice cream sandwich now, which also has BLUE in the rom) and if you want blue in a gingerbread touchwiz rom just pick a blue theme to put on top of whatever rom u pick I'm sure there is a few blue themes. Getting off froyo has other benefits as well like no ciq at all and other bug fixes, I'm assuming your modem is also ec05 which is also old and u should probably b on ei22 or el30.

Jesus christ, i get it already, I need to update the rom. Apparently you guys don't get it. All seven of your responses are identical, nothing like beating a dead horse. I have an Evo and find flashing between roms much easier and the guys on the Q and A sections of those boards are actually helpful. So, one last time, can anyone address the issue or not?

I need to update the rom. then why haven't you?
Apparently you guys don't get it. apparently you don't, we told you what you needed to do, what was it, 7 times?
All seven of your responses are identical, nothing like beating a dead horse. and all of them correct, yet you still want to run an out dated ROM that has NO support. Nobody is going to flash back to Froyo to diagnose and fix a problem for someone demanding it like we owe you something
I have an Evo and find flashing between roms much easier and the guys on the Q and A sections of those boards are actually helpful. and? 7 people promptly answered your question correctly on how to permanently fix your problem. If your evo buddies are so helpful (they're not http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1393443 ) ask them to fix your download issue for you for free. So you know how to flash a ROM easily on your evo, apply your expertise to the epic.
So, one last time, can anyone address the issue or not?
yeah I have the solution. It's not my fault if anything happens because of you not reading these instructions before you even touch your epic. Go find a qbking video.
Now shall we begin?
Download Odin, get any .tar from anywhere in XDA and place the .tar in the PDA section. Select repartition and reset f.time or whatever, and uncheck auto reboot.
Now plug your epic into the computer while the epic is in download mode.
Now click start in Odin and when the green progress bar gets half way, unplug the epic and bingo, you have a brick. Have a nice night.
Nothing to see here folks keep it moving.

I am running Syndicate Rom Frozen 1.2 with the Genocide kernel and cannot download any picture messages while on 3g. I have tried multiple messaging programs, cleared cache/date, etc. but nothing seems to be fixing the issue. I can, however, download them on Wifi. I have tried to turn off wifi and just use 3g as I understand that can cause issues, but it doesn't help. Any suggestions?!?!?

What carrier are you using??
Try booting a stock rom and going to settings>about phone> update prl, and your profile. 3g should work aftrwords.
Next use voice dialer in applications and say "open apn" and make sure default profile is active.
Update the damn rom!

Well if we all say the same maybe u should listen!!!!!!!! Get rid of the old rom and move on to something that is actually supported these days, did u even look to see what modem you're on???? How is flashing roms any easier on an evo considering u can use rom manager for both of them?? That is if you have updated your wife's recovery, have u done that yet??? Anyway im done here your last post seems a little rude and I don't really like helping d!ck$, especially ones that probably haven't been paying any attention to the development of the epic for what seems to be a long time.

Seriously though update the rom as well as clockworkmod its not hard, we even have an official update to gingerbread from sprint so cut us some slack if were telling you to update when people who aren't rooted are light years ahead of you. If anything you were the one beating the dead horse because no matter how many times we told you a solution you insisted on another solution.

I think the real lesson here is -don't root or flash the wife's phone.
Chances are that she really doesn't give a **** about all this "cool" android stuff, and when something does go wrong she's not going to try to fix it herself, rather she will just blame you for screwing it up in the first place and then send you on a quest to fix it.
Why isn't she the one in here asking how to fix her problem?
My suggestion to fix "your" msg problem: I would just Odin her phone back to stock, let her epic take the ota updates, and then never touch the thing again.
sent from my secret underground bunker
Maybe I left out one key line. I have no interest in flashing another rom. If there is not a known fix for this, I will just move on and leave it as is. The entire process of flashing, odin, etc. beyond just simple zip flashes in CWM is more than I am willing to figure out right now and more complicated than the Evo recovery process. Plus in my brief experience, seems less reliable and consistent (only certain cords work, with certain phones on certain computers, etc. I don't want to take the time to learn more about it and fiddle with it because it's my wife's phone and I never have more than an hour or so to work on it. Thanks to those who responded with ideas that didn't involve flashing a new rom, I appreciate it. If anyone else has another work around for this, I would appreciate it.
Thanks

This is very true. She doesn't care about most of the "cool" stuff, however, she was on the stock gingerbread release and said the camera was really slow and so I saw the video from qb king on flashing SRF 1.2 and gave it a whirl. Aside from this messaging issue (it also won't send mms), the rom is fast and smooth, plus the battery life is terrific.

Great idea... first question here... i have never rooted a phone or done anything like that to it... i've always wanted to get into it, but i just never could get up the nuts to do it. funny because i've messed with and modified every other electronic device and pre-android phone i've ever owned... just got scared with android, i guess partly because i cannot afford to have to buy another 700 dollar device...
anyways, i want to go ahead and root my sgs3 on wind mobile, but i have no idea how. can anyone point me to some help... i mean super basic noob help? like a walkthrough? i want to put on CM9 if i can, and whatever rom would be a good one for daily use... i don't really know what different roms are going to get me even, and honestly for the most part the phone works great, but there are a few minor things (like google wallet) that i want access to and can't have without rooting... so i figure i'll go for it
also, will it void my warranty to do this, or can i revert back to stock if i have a warranty issue and then take it in for replacement? thanks for any and all help!
*please ignore*
hot temperature?
Are any of you guys noticing your Wind GS3 being very hot? My battery temperature is at about 35C to 40C after a few minutes browsing or playing games (though it's ~30C when it's not doing much). Feels reasonably uncomfortable to hold while it's hot ... Not sure if the phone is defective or if it's because Wind's (generally) weak signal strength forces the Radio/CPU to crank up a notch or two ...

I'll see if I can come up with something, but just wanted to say that I'm with Wind and I've been able to root it, flash the FreeGS3 (currently R3 right now) ROM and Trinity kernel. Also installed CPU Sleeper and other CPU apps. ~20 hours of battery life (since 7:30am), listened to music at work all day, played games on the train home, wi-fi on at home).
Also used Triangle Away to set the flash count back to 0

that is odd cause my phone sits in around 27 on average so its never hot to the touch so it might be a defect but i would go in and have that checked out in any case

and at last your question here i found a thread that will help you with everything so your not going on a mad man hunt for this information now you can pick whatever rom you want but they have a couple on here but ill have another link for some new roms that are more stable.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1723175
so here are a few roms that you can take a stab picking and choosing which you think would like best

and hopefully we will see CM9 show up a bit more soon but all I can find is nightlies for now but i'm sure as we pass a month of this phone being out we will see better roms come out with it .....was kinda hoping for hellfire to move on over but soon enough i'm sure cause he is a great dev for the G2X aka optimus 2x
but for now those are the 2 big ones that i can see and of course as the phone progresses it will get more roms that are better out there
ok, cool, i'm going to read through those links
in the mean time, can anyone point me in the direction of a page, or just explain it, that tells me what the hell a kernel does compared to a rom? what does each of them do, and what does changing each of them get me?
i'm super new to android and honestly, this is getting to be so much for me that i'm getting tempted to just say screw it and not risk messing up my phone that i bought out and paid 700 dollars for by the time i was said and done....
i really do want to get into modding it, but i'm not going to risk screwing it up completely if it's a significant risk, and if i can't get warranty coverage for it if i do mess it up...
any help on clearing up what a kernel does compared to a rom, etc, would be awesome
also what benefits does the FREESG3 rom give me? will i lose out on a lot of the cool stock samsung features? i know some of them are stupid, but i honestly like some of the other ones, like the stock calender and a few others....camera, i dunno what else but i know i like em. lots of the other samsung stuff is crap for sure, but i've dealt with it thus far. also, if i flash a new rom, will i lose all of my existing calender entries or can i back them up and restore them to the new (if it's new) calender in the new rom?
holy *phew* hope that relieves my n00bie question diarrhea for the next 3 minutes...

okay for the most part the kernel doesn't matter most roms have their own kernels but some kernels will allow you to overclock your phone and yes you will lose you current calender entries and technically you will lose your warranty on your phone but the benifits are you can get much better battery life and speed out of your phone realistically but its all up to you on wether you decide to go through with it or not but i like what i got with the s3 personally optimus x2 i had to put custom roms on there cause without it my phone would be ****

ok cool thanks for the help here...
so as far as calender stuff.... can i back it up and restore it, or am i hooped and just stuck losing it? since i have my google stuff, shouldn't it back it up for me? i know when i went from my optimus 2x (un modded) to my sgs3 i just signed into google and everything showed up... won't happen here though or what?
also.....i've been reading about people having to install gapps (google apps i'm guessing?) separately? what's the deal there... do i have to do that? thanks
one other thing i forgot to ask... i've had a few people tell me that, being on wind, i cannot use tmo roms etc like i used to be able to on other phones (apparently) but now it looks like those links above are all tmo roms... i'm confused... am i boing to bork up my phone if i put tmo stuff on it, or no? thanks

well they said that it could cause issues but my old optimus 2x aka g2x worked fine with tmobile roms and btw GS3 is T999 where as the Canadian version is T999V and should have no issues from what i can see if im not mistaken the optimus 2x up here was P990DW where as the tmo version was T990 but the roms and everything were the same for both.
where as for the calendar its prob a loss and yes you install gapps separately but just follow the instruction and it will lead you through everything safely but here is another link just in case

As for ROM s I'm still on stock and don't mind it to bad just want it debloated but otherwise it's alright
If you would not like to read this, I admit its size is a bit unsettling, then please jump to the bottom in big bold letters and see if there is some passive way of helping.
But seriously, it's not that bad of a read. :fingers-crossed:
Hey guys, hows it goin? :laugh:
I Know this looks long but bear with me. I've made it
Enjoyable.....
To warn you before hand.... I AM A NOOB OOOOOoooOOOoooHhhHHHhhh.......
I'm new to forums, I'm new to roots, but I'm not new to technology. Help me and I will be able to figure things out.
If you find yourself saying "Hey ya i know whats goin on hea!" help me with this, and I will Love you mercilessly.
So I'm going to give you all of the details that I can about my phone and its history.
I can imagine that maybe the solution to my problem is somewhArrr on the XDA but i just cant find a thread with my exact problems and history and I am just going to throw this up here and hope that someone can walk me through this hard time.
Alright, Ive never jumped into anything without a little bit of research first BUT like my legos, when I was a kid I just did it without reading the manual. I just kind of looked at the end result and just did it. Terrible thing to do, I know, but I'm a pretty clever guy. I usually find everything out no matter how long it takes me. But this time I fear i have taken a road that I cant really go back.
Ok ok I'll start. I got my Note II at least a year ago (pretty sure my warranty is over) and a little while ago I really realized what power my phone held and I had to have it rooted. :laugh:
So I did research and I rooted with the all powerful Auto Odin.
I have a friend who professionally works/jailbreaks/fixes all things Apple. A long time ago he rooted my Nook.
He knows his **** and he's educated. He knows Titanium backup, CWM, SuperUser, ya know, The Basics....
He saw me working on my phone one day and said "Oh i know Cyanogen mod. Its awesome!"
So at the time I had Rom toolbox (Pro) and was just window shopping different Roms. I liked a couple like Carbon, but I just decided to stick with CM. I picked a nightly mod because I'm all about the looks
So I stuck with that for a while but it wasn't enough. I missed my multi-window, s note, etc.
Then I heard about....
JEDI X.....
Must have...... (Jedi.... I have chubs for you......)
|||||| SIDE NOTE ||||||||Around this time I got a 64gb micro SD. And AGAIN, Research/deadlinks/descriptionsAndXDAThreadsThatNeverAppliedPerfectlytoMe/FailureTo FindDownloads&ModDescriptionsCommentsAlwaysTalkedAbout/nonfreeServices and other stuff.
The card worked but never how I wanted to and my Internal was always running out of space. Couldn't partition. Couldn't get app2sd to work.
Jedi would Flip it so Internal and SD were swapped but sometimes i would get traded my 64 into a 10 and **** was con-FUZE-ing.
If I see the light after this tunnel..... Simple and honest help would be greatly appreciated.
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||\
My first-firstJedi was a failure. GApps didnt work and other stuff. And no SU, CWM, Rom Toolbox. Downloading apps was hard but I got a couple. It was Hard. AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!! I used my SD card to quickly add .Zips, .Img, and other stuff I needed for bootloading. So I got it and when I installed it (btw I'm still not 100% on what Flashing is) I Did not wipe because I was afraid of losing my data. I never knew It would be Dirty Flashing. It was Jedi 19 I believe, or maybe 18... Well then It started to Boot loop. Info of "No root" on bootloader would cause more Bootlooping upon Install. Even after more Odin. Then waves of Battery pulls, button holds, Usb links, Odin re-roots. Eventually I wiped Enough times and re-installed Jedi and it began to work again. Some things never really worked so I did research and research. Which was always filled with links that that eventually ended in the same place they started. Or Downloads that were either lost in time or locked. Then available .exe files that never worked like 2nas and other stuff. Tried Odin again and again. Other Odin .tar file downloads again and again.
I can find everything I ever used and compile a list if it would help.
Because of all of this I experienced sleepless nights, filed with protein bars, X-files, Adderall, and a whole war brought on by my phone against me and my Lappy. Guys, I miss the taste of Sunlight. I miss my Gf. Poor thing. She emails me quite often. She really hasn't heard anything form me because.....

SIM card cannot be read. I about lost my ****. But not immediately because I hadn't noticed it. At first I was celebrating. "Yay! Beloved Jedi! I Finally have you! FN Notifications you're so sexy! (Being A HUGE Bioshock Enthusiast, Portholes is my favorite theme) Icon changer! Sweet! Jedi Tricks! Yah!" But then I noticed I couldn't get data. At first I was fine. Nothing could touch me. I could fix anything. So I gracefully took out my sim, cleaned it, and stuck it back, Nothing. Reboot. Nothing. Recovery. Nothing. Then,

Nothing worked and I fear I have only been picking at old wounds and perhaps making it worse. Idk. but other than that everything is perfect.
Then last night I realized. Duh! must be the SIM card! ill just get a new one! went down to mah At&t store and a brother hooked me up. My mom is the only authorized user so I couldn't switch my number right there but I went home, Called customer support, fixed it, set up my new card, read him the digits, read em back, that was good, then he said it should work right then. Hung up. Powered down. Took out old one, put in new one. Happy/psyched. Get to talk to people again and be a human once more. Turned that sucker on and

DAMMITs followed by research..... and research..... corn nuts and tea..... and research..... found a couple of promising leads though. then I Lost them or they didn't work. Lots of people said stuff like "Lost it" "Bricked" "New Phone" Sent it in" "...Guys in texas fixed radio....' "Kernel" "stock" "unroot" "nothing worked" and worst of all "I think it's funny that no body noticed that this question was from 2 months ago" *Shivers* please don't make me wait that long. And i found a couple of "Ya I've seen people get helped and make it through this". Hope is a dangerous thing people.
So now I'm going to upload pictures and information about my phone

I can't imagine that any of this is necessary but you've got to remember I am not as Skillz as some of you guys so its just insurance.
This is where I am at now. I will be doing little to no work on my phone to keep it as close to this list as possible.
I would love comments out the WAZOO. Anything helps. I really don't want to take "Get a new phone" or anything of that nature because 1.) Money related options aren't really, well, an option. 2.) I hate giving up.
All info is good info
If you know how to fix this
I will kiss you
If you know another way around this, such as reliable means of WiFi communications
ummmmm I'll thank you?
If you can refer me to a specialist in my area-ish
If you can refer me to a website/forum admin
If you can give me contacts/emails/numbers
If you know how much At&t would charge me to sent my phone in
If you know if At&t will refuse/charge extra because my phone is rooted could you tell me and guide on how I may Un-Root my phone for fear of Bricking it myself without proper knowledge?
I will forever be in your debt
Anything you need from me I would love to do anything. If you need more info/pictures. Questions. 1-on-1 emailing. I will be checking this regularly.
Think of us as children on a playground. I have fallen and scraped my knee. This is the first time this has happened to me and I don't know what to do. And I'm a bit afraid. If you're a student like me go get one of the "Teachers". If you're a teacher. Help would be awesome.\
I hope that if this thread is helpful towards me, it may be full of information towards someone else in the same position in the future. So please.
LINKS LINKS LINKS LINKS. (if necessary) Oh and ya, I know I must sound really pathetic. I just like doing things right.
Thank You,

Bro...too long. I skimmed, didn't catch anything about you attempting to go back to stock rom/kernel. So...did you? At this point, getting things to work may corrupt your install more than you may immediately notice. Start from the beginning, if your SIM card works there, it's a software issue. If not, it's a hardware issue that we will most likely not be able to fix.
Ya I know I just have a hard time knowing when to quit. Thanks for being quick. Um originally no-
Didn't know to.
But I couldn't get my sticky fingers away from my phone and now its worse.
Now I'm not necessarily looking for help.... i guess because i tried some more things today and now its Soft-Bricked ( i think).
I only get down loader and kies firmware screen. I can hear my comp find my phone through a notification. But android toolkit cant find it, and today I finally noticed my custom binary download count...... 8. I'm really not proud of myself.
Anyways i guuuueeeessss im still looking for help even though odin/conventional stock roms never "pass" anymore.
But i guess maybe i just need help finding what step i should take next. thanks

Happens to mine everyrime trying to flash dn3

I had precisely the same thing happen to me the first time I flashed a rom. I didn't know about all the different versions and flashed a rom for the 7100 rather than the 317 and it stopped detecting my sim. What I had to do was flash the stock rom, then flash the new custom rom (that you did research on and it is designed for your device). I am running CM10.2 now on my i317 with full functionality.
hi everyone! I am seeking your expertise as I came upon this forum trying to help my son fix his phone. He's only 11 years old- but as we call him at home our "tech guy". He got a brand new HTC One M8 (carrier is ATT) yesterday and 3 hours later - the phone was "bricked" as I have been told. Apparently, (these are his words) he "unlocked the bootloader using HTCdev, then flashed twrp, then flashed supersu.zip.
I have no idea what any of that means but apparently he did something wrong because his phone is not working and we don't know how to fix it. If you have any compassion for a frustrated Mom who's trying not to be angry with her son -- I would appreciate any advice you can give on how to fix this.
I have attached a picture of what the phone looks like when we turn it on. I also posted this under the ATT forum too.
Thanks in advance for your help!
You bought your 11 year old son an M8?
Do you adopt?

Going by the pic, the bootloader has been relocked. So that's a problem. The bootloader will need to be unlocked again. I would suggest heading over to Youtube, as I have found video tutorials the most helpful when I was learning this stuff. There are plenty of videos that are even specific to the M8.
Edit: I should also point out that a phone can almost always be saved/restored if it still powers on. So don't panic. It would probably be in your best interest though to find someone experienced to fix it. Trying to explain the process to fix it here is not going to be helpful to someone who doesn't know what they're doing. If you can't find someone experienced, then my best suggestion, as stated above, would be to watch some Youtube tutorials on unlocking/rooting the M8.
Okay. In all seriousness.
When was this screen grab taken? In other words, is this your current position with the phone?
Relocked... etc etc
Are you in the US on AT&T?
Your tech son needs to restore ATT backup.. Hopefully someone in that forum has it

UPDATE on my son
Thank you all so much for your responses! It is much appreciated. Believe it or not - this kid fixed it all by himself. Basically (remember I am not technical) he unlocked the boot loader then flashed a ROM onto an SD card and was able to load. Don't think I worded correctly - but I think you know what I am talking about -- it's fixed and working fine. WHEW!!
I guess he "retraced" the steps he did last night and was able to get it. Actually it's strange the first ROM he put on wasn't allowing him to find or pick up wifi. He found another and got it. This kid is good!
I will certainly keep the info to this forum handy because something tells me that I will be visiting again with this child..................
Have a great evening!!
p.s. I typed the wrong key -- he's 12 not 11 And - sure I'd adopt! But he did save up his own money to get this phone and only wanted it to do these "cool" things as he says to it.....rest of my family - we are simple and use Iphones -- sorry.
All I can say to this is Wow!!

I'm glad to hear everything worked out for you and your son.
It's great to know that you're letting your kid tinker around as he is. I know these are quite expensive devices, but we often do learn from our mistakes, and that is even more true when it comes to technology. I'm sure that I have a bit of a bias being a software developer, but tech is such a huge part of life now, and that is only going to become more so with time. So getting an early start as he is, your son is going to have a leg-up in the world, even if he doesn't choose this type of field as a career path.

Agree! But keep an eye on him, so that he sleeps from time to time. And hide your car keys!
Please don't create multiple threads asking the same question.

Thanks!! He's very into all of this stuff and always has been from a very young age -- started with Legos at 2. He doesn't play sports and this is his "thing". He really LOVES all this stuff. He's actually really good and understands most things. As you can see - we certainly have issues now and then but overall we certainly let him "tinker". I really should write stuff down so we can laugh about it in about 10 years. We tried to limit his Internet time a couple of years ago and added a password on his computer that we had to input on his computer to gain access. Little **** put a keystroke logger on the computer to get the password. Then he somehow modified the main password screen to say PENIS when we logged on. The stories go on and on....... We will let him continue his technology building and hopefully he really have a bright future in technology!
Thanks for all of the input and support from this forum!

I was the same from an early age and always have been. I have taken apart or modified more household items than I can think of. I broke a lot of stuff messing as a kid, but now I have a lot of knowledge and can fix almost any thing properly.
It seems you are not so bad yourself with the technical stuff as most moms wouldn't have a clue or even be able to repeat what you have explained here.
