Actually, it's not that way. And being an ass won't get you mod status, apparently that is what you are going for.

you weren't much help either, if i have to say something.
i agree, this is NOT the place for this. it belongs in q and a.
that being said, google is your friend.
my suggestion is return it to stock image, and reflash.

EMERGENCY!!! I've been following your guides for rooting, etc. Now I was trying to flash a ROM, and when the phone booted into recovery, I didn't get the usual blue list of options. There were a few options, and then in yellow *MANUAL MODE* ... I tried flashing the roms anyway and it said in red "signature verification failure" ... and "operation aborted" (something like that) WTF?!?!? HEEEEELP!!!!

Sounds like you don't have a custom recovery in your phone yet. Look into flashing twrp's touch recovery. You tried to flash through the stock recovery.
Download ROM toolbox from market and to flash a recovery(twrp) go to tools>manage Rom and then on the top choose the manage tab. The top of the list is the option to flash a recovery. Flash recovery and then you could come back to the app to flash the ROM of your choice.

Thank you - and I'm sorry for my ignorance, but where do I find that and how do I install it?
I just edited my post, read again.
I guess I should ask, are you rooted? Or have you not done that yet? That app will not work without being rooted and without superuser permissions.

Yes, definitely rooted. Just wanted to try new roms aside from stock. Had the ROM MANAGER and tried to flash from there as well, same issue came up. I'll try your solution now.

It worked! Not sure what I did wrong to start with and the behind the scenes is a mystery to me, but it worked!!! Thank you!!!
So... 1) what do you think is the best custom ROM out there right now?, and 2) what's the difference between ROM Toolbox and ROM Manager?

I used to use ROM manager but I switched to ROM toolbox. I just simply like it better. More options. I haven't used ROM manager in a while, so I don't even know what the current version offers. I prefer phantomhacker's blazer ROM. But if you like themed roms, there are a few out there. I am not on any custom ROM right now, just stock rooted with a few mods and tweaks. I had blazer ROM on my gs2 and was my favorite on that phone too. Just do allot of reading on each roms thread so you can see if there are any issues. I always read read read before flashing.

THANK YOU once again.
Final question - is there a list somewhere here with all the ROMs out there for the GS3?
Sprint galaxy s3 android development section. It will say [ROM] in the title. If you are looking for cm9, cm10, aosp, or aokp type roms, look in the Sprint galaxy s3 original android development section.

I promise I'm not trying to insult you, but:
1. Your choice of thread title doesn't explain anything.
2. Your original post wasn't very coherent.
3. You failed to do the first thing when buying a new phone, which is read, read, read before even downloading a ROM.
Next time, please be as clear and detailed as possible when describing an issue, and choose a more relevant thread title. Next, troubleshoot; if the phone says "operation aborted", try rebooting the phone. Tell us what happened and what you've done.
Hey guys, I'm brand new to xda and I recently rooted my phone. I'm considering flashing the AOKP ROM, and I've got two questions at the moment.
1.) I see that it is very strongly suggested to do a nandroid backup of your current rom, and download a "custom recovery" app. I created a backup using the "Rom Manager" app by clockworkmod. My question is, is the Rom Manager considered a custom recovery, or is that something I need to download in addition? The backup I created is already on my phone, and a copy of it is on a spare micro sd card.
2.) Now that I'm rooted, should I still install the software updates from T-mobile? Or is that unnecessary?
Thanks in advance for any responses.
Btw I have a T-Mobile Galaxy S III
1. If u use rom manager to flash CWR then that is it. U can check it by click on recovery in rom manger
2. No u dont have to updated anything unless the Op stated.
3. I would suggest you to back up yoir imei. Just in case u lose it during flash. Most ppl recommed using Twrp instead of CWR . Becuse ppl report of losing imei usinh cwr. But am not sure. Hope that help

ROM Manager is used to flash a custom recovery. Hit the "download Clockworkmod" button in the Rom Manager app. That's your custom recovery.
Now that you have a custom recovery, updates from T-Mobile will NOT install. You don't need them anyways.

This.
Ignore what the other guy said.
Once you boot into your recovery with some key combo (I don't know what it is for your device) you go into 'backup and restore' I believe its called in clockworkmod and perform a nandroid.

Thank you.. I can still do the back up even if im running custom rom right? running xquisite v50 and will do this first before upgrading to the latest v70.. and i thought a CWM backup before flashing is all i need..
what s TWRP? Is it another form backup? its an app for my phone right?
sorry for all the question :angel:

Twrp (team win recovery project) is just another recovery, it takes the place of clockworkmod (CWM/CWR)
Not an app at all... however you can get it through goo manager

Any other ROMS you'd suggest? I like the Milestone 6 ROM because it looks like the Galaxy Nexus.

I've also run aokp, euroskank, and free gs3 on this phone

Mike, the link I provided was to back up your IMEI and nothing else. It is totally independent of backing up your ROM.

I would definitely back up your IMEI just in case. There have been a lot of users that have randomly lost it and they lost data connection because of it. If you have a back up of your IMEI you can easily restore it and get your data back.

Easiest thing would be to put a ROM on an SD card and flash it in recovery.
Other option is to Odin back to stock in download.
Edit.....
For future reference here is task's full wipe video to avoid wiping something by accident.

Also please remember to flash and wipe exactly as instructed in the ROM thread

My computers will not recognize the phone now
With your ROM being wiped your computer won't recognize your phone unless you are in download mode using Odin to go back to stock.
If you don't have a SD card adapter to put in your computer to put a rom on you'll have to Odin back to stock.

I don't know what carrier you are on but use this guide to download the proper stock (unrooted, you'll need to re-root) ROM for your specific carrier.
All the tools and instructions you need are on this site. Unsure how to use Odin? Try a youtube search for your carrier and model.

I find that if you successfully flash a ROM and get stuck in a boot loop to reboot into recovery and factory reset. Seems to work.

Flashing stock is pretty much your only option. From there, you can flash a custom recovery and then CM10.
Hey guys sorry for posting this thread. I've tried reading others about the same situation im going thru, but phones are different. So im rooted, I think I'am. I did the RWilco one click method for the sph-d710vmub. everything went great phone rebooted perfect turned on and I have the superuser app. Im running on android 4.0.4 Fl26 (stock). My recovery mode saids ACSRecovery5 v1.0.0.0 CWM5 based.
Now every time i try using a rooted access app. Dosnt let me at all not super user, barnacle, mobil odin, Titanium back up.
I tried flashing roms, saids installation aborted.
Can anyone tell me if im actually rooted or not?
And if so how can I get root permission so i can get these apps going, and I can flash my ass away.
Im really anxious to see my phone full potentials and Im really doing this to change my sg2 theme.

You are not rooted if apps won't pull it. You don't need root to theme. There are plenty of launchers. Since you seem to have a CWM, you can flash a rooted ROM.

The back to stock thingy does not wipe data so when coming from aosp a data wipe is required or you will get missing files and force closes.
