If you want to keep your apps download and run titanium backup. Do a full wipe and clear cache. Install your Rom and afterwards reload titanium backup and install your missing apps. I am running virus sense 4.2 and it runs great. You Shouldnt have any trouble.
Edit...
I do not use Rom manager because I prefer psfmod recovery.
Are you fully rooted with s off on the boot loader?
Before flashing any Rom make a nanroid just incase something goes wrong

I am considering flashing to virus Rom. I have a few questions first though.
I rooted with unrevoked, will I be fine?
When I flash will my apps be there if I saved them to the SD card?
Is Rom manager good to use?
Is there anything else I should know before I root.
Thanks in advance

So you are or are not rooted first you said you rooted with unrevoked then at last you ask if there is anything else you need to know before root. Moving on if you are rooted go to the market and download titanium backup use the batch option to save all your apps then after you flash new room use batch to restore all apps I'd you are not rooted you will lose your apps there are apps in the market like app monster that let you back up apps but you will lose your link to the market. Unrevoked will be fine that's whati used as long as its compatible with your phone if already rooted your good. Room manager is good if you use clockwork recovery. Its only compatible with clockwork. You should look up his to back up rsa keys very important if you want 4g. Always backup your phone before you do ANY Mods this will save you allot of heart ach. And last try not to offer money this can be bad In the end but up to you and I don't want any just want to help

As long as you do not flash a the wimax radio you should never worry about this. But you should back it up just incase.

Q: When to Root?

I just bought my SGS3 yesterday and still going under battery calibration, first cycle. Question is should I wait to complete the battery calibration before rooting or go ahead and root?
I'm coming from a Vibrant, so I know about rooting, just don't know if its a better idea to get the calibration done right first before rooting.

I would just go ahead and root it. I rooted mine on like the 2nd or 3rd day

I would assume that I would have to re-calibrate either way, correct?

I honestly think all that batt calibrating is bogus. The new batt will get better thru every cycle. Just my 2cents

I never calibrate my battery anymore because its been said it doesn't do anything and I didn't notice any difference when I used to

I just rooted my phone anyways! Ah, I guess I have been misinformed and been trapped in my old ways, Vibrant ways. lol. Had another question, will removing any of the T-Mobile crapware mess with the full functionality of the stock rom? I remember for the vibrant, removing certain apps caused the phone to force close repeatedly and crashed the phone.

Flash a debloated rom and you should be fine.

I wanted to keep it stock rom because those debloated roms look like they are the previous OS versions? I bought my phone with the OTA update that everyone seems to be talking about now and how some kernels don't work well with the new OS update

Is it safe to remove with Titanium Backup or would Root Explorer be best?
Edit:
Nvm, I think Titanium will be more user friendly I'll use Root Explorer for other stuff.

Follow up, but kind of on point, is there a way to obtain root without wiping everything?
Like, I set up the phone, go for a week, then decide I want root.

You don't need to wipe anything before rooting. You just need to make sure you back up your stuff in case the worst of the worst happens.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

What if you're doing it through Odin?
** EDIT ** Meaning, flashing a stock rom with root injected in Odin.

NANDROID error

Okay, I used the toolkit to NANDROID backup, 3x 5 minutes apart to be safe. Now that I want to go back after flashing a rom that is force closing eafh restore is throwing an error from the beginning using CWM. Im wanting the stock kernel and rom.
I am aware this was probably user error, nevertheless I need a few pointers.
Thanks in advance,

Delete my backups and try again? How will that work with NO Nandroid backups to restore from? This is like going into the tmo store for technical assistance.

Yes, I use Twrp with N8013. But if I'm plan to flashing all time I use CWM which is very easy to use and if I want for warranty all I do restore to stock. Toolkit , Twrp ,CWM are same depend on your experience and your taste.

Nandroid backup without custom recovery?

EDIT: I just flashed TWRP thru GooManager and I'm making my stock backup now.
I've been using CWM on my last two phones to make nandroid backups.
With the S3, I have rooted but left everything stock, and would like to continue to do so. Is there a way to do backups with the stock recovery, Odin, or some other method?

Just in case someone else asks for this in the future, I'm almost positive the ToolKit there is an option within there for a complete stock Nandroid option. Although, it isn't completely necessary considering how easy it is to revert to complete stock with these phones.

Toolkit?
Sorry, but which toolkit are you talking about? I´m new in this things....

Backup question

Ok I'm rooted and stock. I'm using Titanium backup to backup all my apps. But I want to restore all my apps on a new phone that is not rooted so cant use Titanium backup. What app can I use that does not need root to restore my backup?

I'm not aware of any app that can restore a backup made with titanium, other than titanium of course.
If you want to make a new backup there may be something in the play store that doesn't require root. Not sure of anything specific though.
Sent from my SGH-T999L using xda premium

Yeah I'm not trying to use the titanium backup. I just need an app that doesn't need root. I would use that to make a new backup and restore that backup on the new phone.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

Either Rooted or Custom Recovery, are the only ways that I know of. Why not root the new phone? You could always "Unroot" it after you have restored everything.

The new phone is the HTC one. I'm reading way too many issues with it after people root and sometimes on stock. So if my phone has problems I don't want to spend time unrooting to send out back.

you could use ADB but its more of a pain than any other method, heres a link to an .exe for that will do it for you (NO-ROOT) http://lifehacker.com/5976036/simpl...droid-phone-from-the-desktop-no-root-required windows
