CleanGB build 13 installed over build 10 - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have CleabGB build 10 and just downloaded build 13.
Can I just flash build 13 over build 10 or do I need to revert back to official EC05 first and do it all over again?

No need to revert. It will most likely work BUT do a backup just in case u get force closes, if that happens restore your backup and do a titanium or mybackuproot backup and wipe data then install cleangb then restore your apps

I was told by developer that I should apply the in-between updates to bring it from build 10 to 13.

yes.. u have to apply incremental updates to get to b13.

If you apply the incremental updates, you wont have to back up your data. You can flash the full version but the full version wipes data.
If you really wan to flash the full version, you can always back up your phone using the built-in backup in CWM and then restore your data via the advanced restore mode in CWM after flashing.

Keeping data after update JB

I will probably update tomorrow to JB. I am stock and rooted with TWRP. Is there any way we can keep all data, set ups and update ? I did update last time with out loosing anything (even call logs and text ).
Is it possible?
I have Titanium pro too.

Yup. But still backup. It does occasionally hang at boot forcing you to reset.
I recommend using root66 via odin, or stock with mobile odin. Bothe are in the firmware thread in my sig.

Cannot restore back up trwp / bootloops

I have never had a problem restoring anything, I just backed up a new task ROM, I also backed up a new illusion ROM. I will go to restore from backup and it just boot loops on either 1. Anything prior to these latest releases and backups will restore but 2 separate ROM's with the latest releases will not restore from backup they both stay in boot loop. Totally clueless, I have formatted wiped you name it it will only restore a backup from a ROM o backup on Jan 4th. Only happening newer released backed up ROMs.

Try flashing a different kernel.

Did you change from clockwork mod to Team Win recovery, or visa versa? The two aren't compatible and might cause that.

Ill try to take you a screenshot of what i see when i hit system updates
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
If you do not see that it means you are on an AOSP type Rom. Your not on a Touchwiz type rom. Your going to have to create a nandroid backup of what your on right now if you wish to stay with that rom. Then your going to have to do a clean flash of a TW rom whichever you prefer I recommend either Freeza's Stock rooted MD4 or The People's ROM TPR. Once your on a touchwiz rom you can update your profile and prl with Sprint and you should be ok. Then you can simply restore your nandroid if you wish to go back

No that is a nandroid. So yes go download a TW rom, go into recovery Wipe cache wipe dalvik and do factory reset. Then flash the TW rom. Just boot it up log into Google you don't have to set it all up or anything so don't go through the whole restore process. Then update profile and prl and while your there it won't hurt to key this ##72786# into your dialer . Then reboot into recovery make a nandroid of that for future use if need be. Do factory reset again and restore your previous nandroid.

I believe on cspire you dial *611 and speak with a Rep, or Technical Support. They will reprovison it for you. As far as I know you cannot do it online. Not sure about doing it through the Device itself. The codes are most likely different.
EDIT: Did a search and came up with this THREAD FOR SGS3 CSPIRE. They cover a similar issue in several posts.
Yeah because cspire is totally OK with me rooting their phone and changing their rom

IDK they're policy, but I doubt it. As long as you're on a TW Rom they should not be able to tell unless you tell them.
i think i need to instal a cspire radio/modem
Sent from my SCH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Before you go flashing Radios / Modems. Make very certain you have the correct one. Did you call cspire, to see if they could resolve the issue?

So ive seen that most wipe instructions dont include wiping system. Is that somethingn you should keep intact when flashing roms for the sgs3? Cause on my other phones ive had it was always recommended to wipe system... couldbthat be the issue if that was the case I wonder?

Installing Linaro 10.2

I know this shouldn't necessarily be in this section but I've already PM'd someone and asked on the original thread for help and have gotten no response yet. I understand people may be busy though too. At any rate, can anyone give and exact instructions on how to flash this ROM? They're not in the ROMs OP so...yeah, I'm lost.

I would do a factory reset in TWRP then go to advanced and wipe system. Flash ROM, flash gapps wipe cache and dalvik one last time the reboot.

Use same fresh install method listed in any of my rom threads... I'm not sure about restoring messages I never do it but system data is usually a no no if you have issues with titanium download super su update your binary with the recovery method then go into titanium preferences and click the back up folder location option and change it from sdcard0 to legacy it will ask you if you want to move your back ups say yes then restart titanium and world will be right again

[Q] Flashing 4.3 ROMs'

I've flashed a few times on 4.3 roms and I want to know a way where I don't have to goto recovery and format data. I flashed a few before with TWRP 2.4/5. Now I have 2.6.3.0.. I'm running stock ZVC

So I'm guessing you want to bounce back and fourth installing stock and CM Roms without clearing data? Or different CM Roms for that matter.
I don't know much tech stuff, but every ROM is layed out differently. And stores it's info in different ways.
So a setting you have, for say Carbon might interfere with a setting in PAC.
That's my best way to explain it.

I'll say be in a custom ROM and don't have to keep formatting data to use the ROM again
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
You could always get a ROM running the way you like, create a back up and then flash a new one and repeat. Now when you want to switch ROMs its as easy as hitting the restore button.

Do you mean you don't want to lose files on your SD card? You don't have to format data every time you install a new rom. Factory reset - > wipe system - > wipe cache -> wipe d cache -> flash rom -> flash gapps
This will keep your actual files on your sd card for every rom you bounce to. If you mean Application data (login info, candy crush progression, etc...) use Titanium and backup before flashing a new rom and restore after.
Hope that helps!
Once you are on CM official you can update easily through the tool in settings. But to switch back and forth from CM to stock is quite difficult on this phone.
