Okay I will ask this, have you asked the thread's original poster to have the consent to open up a general topic discussion thread? It is very impolite and rude if you didn't.
Speed is nothing more than just a word... a judgment ...

No I haven't. Original poster of cm9 thread, if you find this rude, please pm me and I will request for it to be closed. If you find that my attempt to keep your thread clean and open is uncalled for, I apologize. Thanks for your work. Happy?

I'm just putting this out there because I've created a ROM and then a Guy automatically creates a thread like this and I was like "Wtf I don't this ****" so yeah, I'm just giving you a head ups.

Mods have requested that QandA threads be opened for all ROMs to keep the dev section clean. I don't see this as being disrespectful or rude.
Anyway let's move on to better things.

In my personal opinion, I hate this, I rather talk to all my flashers than have to go to another thread to talk to them. In my opinion, this is just what I believe. I was just making sure no devs get mad c: that's all.

Before you flash, make sure you download the rotation fix and have it ready to flash after the rom. Or just turn off auto rotation.

No, i believe it has to do with the script support needed to flash CM9, which often possesses a larger kernel than stock images.

Just wanted to say thanks to the guys who are working on this. Just got my GSII a few days ago and was dismayed to find there were no good touchwiz free options for me, and then just in time this cm9 port went up.
I can't use my camera for now, and I'm afraid to turn off my gps, but it's a small price to pay for you guys all putting so much work in to exactly the rom that I wanted. I'll be sticking with this rom and donating to keep development going. Thanks guys.

Someone posted a work-a-round in the Dev section of CM9 about this. Someone else confirmed it worked for them. They said when in non-touch CWR to unmount then remount the cache partition. Then flash the SuperWipe script, then flash the ROM. They created an issue for it here: http://code.google.com/p/hercskycm/issues/detail?id=20 I would head over to the DEV section and read what they posted about it before doing it though.
I think that's the route I'm going to take since I'm still a little unsure about using 'touch' just yet.

Which touch version are you using? I'm about ready to make the leap. I've just become so familiar with the standard recovery. I'm leaning towards the version you pay a couple bucks for through ROM Manager. Even though I've never used ROM Manager for anything. But I've heard it's okay to upgrade or flash your recovery through ROM Manager though?

This didn't work for me. Just kept looping through the boot logo. Maybe my phone doesn't like the rom

You can either flash the rom manager version or odin it. Thats the one I am using. Although a new version from team win just came out for my skyrocket and ill probably give that one a try.

Agreed, stupid IMHO to have to check for updates at one place then ask questions/search for answers in an other. One ROM, one thread.

ClockworkMod 3.0.x.x

Ok what does this one fix?
Hopefully fixes the flashing issues people on different hboots are having. I had to restore 2.5.0.1 with the PC36IMG.zip just so I could flash anything at this point. Did anybody else have this many problems with previous 3.0 builds?
i'm having the same problem as you. currently very frustrated
3.0.0.3
im testing as we speak with cm7.will report
It still sucks. I downloaded cm6.2 and it flashed it but refused to flash the gapps that were downloaded along with the rom. Sucks. Starting to regret donating
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Issues out the ying-yang with all the 3.0.x.x builds. I went through Koush's site and found all the files for Clockwork.
Here is the image you can flash through fastboot...
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.2-supersonic.img
http://koush.tandtgaming.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.2-supersonic.img
Here is the flashable .zip. Should be able to flash this through the borked recovery. If not, use the above.
http://koush.tandtgaming.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.2-supersonic.zip
Here is the page that I got these from. There are more versions in there too...

I think he's implying the proper area in said "forum".....this should definitely be in General!
Thanks -viperboy-. I have flashed back to 2.5.0.1 and all is working. I'm just curious what the newest version is changing. I'm sure they are seeing and reading about all the problems we've been having with the newest update. Which, by the way, is the reason that I posted this post here. It will obviously be seen by more eyes. Hopefully the right eyes.
We need a definitive answer to all these questions. We need to hear from ClockworkMod what versions we should use on what devices.
Have you checked his thread for clockworkmod? You would probably get a lot more responses posting in q&a instead of cluttering the dev section.

Yes. He talked to me on GTalk and told me he figured it out. I left out a line in the updater script... Either way.. Not sure but this could be the other port posted out there... I am sure he will let us know later when he is on. He told me he would be back on tonight after 11:00 est..

Screen rotation is the only bug I've found, and I've been using it all day, setting it up just how I like it.
edit: I also don't have the home button problem people have been having, the No SIM Card issue comes up after a reboot sometimes, rebooting again fixes it though.
Data is working, rotation is still screwy and this looks to indeed be racing's build... Thank you

DONT WANT A BRICK? Check here

As of right now, the roms for your S3 are not meant to be used on other S3 variants. Bricks might happens or a soft one might happen. Before flashing a Rom make sure you are in the right development section an you read the entire op, twice. Until other devs or experienced users find a way to make them cross compatible, please refrain from using other carriers S3 roms.

That's slick!:good:
hard brick - a pretty paperweight (tonight)
should have been more careful, soft bricked the phone, 2 times trying to change the dpi.
once trying to flash a rom - the rom flash, took it to QHSUSB_DLOAD mode, not impressed but i'll take this downtime as a time to relax.
Another way to avoid a brick; Don't use a mod, theme, tool or ROM until it's confirmed by multiple people in the community that it's working properly. Read the last 3-4 pages of a thread

I agree with you, I ended up with a soft brick stuck at the samsung glowing logo after trying to unroot because I got a crack the front plastic near the headphone jack. I managed to reset the flash counter and install the rom but odin failed at the end. Now I'm hesitant to flash another ROM. Anyone else here waiting for JellyBean Rom? Definitely take your time and always make sure your computer installs the drivers before doing anything! I got BB to exchange it for me since they couldn't get it to boot and the mystery crack wasn't my fault. I only had it for like 3 days IN A CASE TOO. Happy Flashing dudes.
I'm just glad i saw a forum for the gs3. I would've bricked my phone after i got it.
Another bricker my own fault went to unroot to take in for service and went and loaded a wrong .tar file of the stock system. Anyway...not looking for sympathy..just wanted to say thanks for the forum that gave me the tools to fix my mistake :thumbup:

Original is usually built from scratch/source. Android development is based from stock, leaks or ports

Ok, I don't know much but hopefully they get this solved I really like his ROM..
Why? He just updates his rom more commonly (all 800mb+) and breaks things a lot and steals others hard work without asking, or giving credit to them. (Allegedly), with proof, of course. I say use Frosty or Evil with the available themes in the themes and apps section. Xquizits roms always seemed okay... but too many broken things caused by pointless updates that are way too huge and should only require a seperate flashable 20mb zip.

Personal preferance. Try and see for yourself. they both feel extremely fast and I use seperate kernel usually so I can't attest to battery on either... just read the last 3-5 pages of each and make a decision that way.

What sucks is that none posted a reason being closed. I think the community should know what's up. I think he thanked enough as he could on he's OP. If he missed someone then I personally would say sorry but he is awesome Dev. and if he missed someone, he's only human and forget what he put in your work sometimes.
I hope this gets resolved or at least someone explain why it's closed.

Yes I agree, I have been with his ROM since I stopped using MIUI and yesterday I was lossed when I saw the message stating that I was closed. I am hoping everything works out for him as well
There's a deference in using someones work and saying thanks to them, or giving credit, and stealing there work without asking and claiming it to be your own. Pretty much being a thief... If people were to donate to him cause of his rom that is wrongfully going to the person. EvilArt created hidden code and such in his work and he posted that XquiziT was using it in his roms and not giving credit. Other's have mentioned this as well about his roms. It's sad and sucks and I hope there was just some confusion, but evidence is evidence.
Another one gone because of freaking drama...

Yes I used the word "Wicked" in my Rom but nothing else. Wanam's 15 toggle code is where that word
came from a compare I did when my mod was fc'ing. I have done all my own mods why would I use Wicked's and the SystemUI.apk at that. Nothing special about that file and prob 85% or more of the S3 Roms are the same mods and would compare except the word "Wicked" that yes I included.
Anyway I will keep doing Roms for myself but will no longer be a part of XDA. Not because of XDA, because of what goes on there.
Thanks for all who supported me but as I have said before I take no donations as this is my fun and learning experience.
Thanks!

Anyway I will keep doing Roms for myself but will no longer be a part of XDA. Not because of XDA, because of what goes on there.
Thanks for all who supported me but as I have said before I take no donations as this is my fun and learning experience.
Thanks!

Hey, So do you know whats going on exactly?
Do you think that this was all a misunderstanding and he will be back up and running?

Well that sucks. I like Wild's ROMs and he may have took others work, but hell....the same code floats around from DEV to DEV anyway.
SN: Wicked ROM is actually pretty nice. I tried it once it was proven that Wild was stealing code from Evil. I think Wicked ROM needs inverted apps though. They make the ROMs like so much more classier!
Anyway, thanks Wild for all of your work and efforts. You put a lot of time into updating your ROMs and I'm sad to see you go bro.

[RESOLVED]Petition to get task650 back

We all know and love task, a very giving individual who was mistreated in the threads and very underminded by one particular individual, personally I miss task, I would love to have him back over on the T-Mobile threads, without all the Greif surrounding his departure, so I ask you all, help me get back one of the most beloved and badass developers of the galaxy threads

Just flash his I9505 ROMs.
I've seen the way he handles his threads, while he does not have to share his work.. he could be nicer about it, and if he sees a useless post, instead of replying to it, he could report it. It goes both ways, to be honest.
I actually saw his ROM and didn't flash it simply because I saw the way he handled the thread.
PS: I have the utmost respect for all devs, they do things for free because they enjoy it and love sharing. So more power to him and I appreciate the work he and any other dev does. I'm not bashing him, just saying it wasn't only the member's fault. It goes both ways.

He builds for at&t not i9505. While some don't like the way he runs his threads, I can kind of see where the guy is coming from when people post completely irrelevant things in his threads. Although he could be a bit nicer about things or simply ignore them, it must be frustrating having to sift through all of the off topic stuff to find comments related to development. I never got to flash his roms, but after looking at the at&t thread it would definitely be nice to see him bring builds to our device...lol

Ah, that's where I saw it! My apologies for the confusion.
And yeah, I mean the more ROMs we have here, the better. I was just throwing my thoughts out. A lot of people are just asking questions.. while they may have already been answered, if people are going to put the effort into replying, might as well reply with something helpful like a link to the original answer or something. I mean, that's what I'd do. But like I said, I don't mean to start a war or anything, its his ROMs, his threads, etc.
PS: I say this to anyone who says "its already been answered" or "search" etc.. if you have enough time to post that, then simply help the guy out. We've all been noobs and we know what its like to be scared sh**less because we think we broke something.
Why doesn't some one just run a thread for him? That way he has nothing to deal with. Post his op, maintain the OP, but have say the op of this thread maintain it?
I know plenty of Devs that do that. Illusion rom by mikeramsey for instance. All the dude wants is to build a badass rom. He'll officially support a device but he doesn't run the thread. Metropcs s3 is a perfect example. He official supports it and puts out official builds for it, but the thread at AF is 100% official, the builds are 100% by Mike, but he's not the op nor participates in it nor maintains it.

This sounds like a great idea. If someone responsible were to step up to the plate and PM him about the idea maybe we can get some task back on our device!!

Did you remove the updater script build prop asserts and flash a T-Mobile kernel? I think that should work...
Good luck guys. In my opinion he runs a one man show and he can have a little attitude if he wants to. I have seen too many people who don't know what they are doing and jump to wrong conclusions... this one guy said that tasks rom bricked his device and he was demanding money or something.... outrageous.
I have been silent for too long... Been following XDA forums for three years. Its about time I speak up and support the devs

It most likely will, bud.
Just make sure to flash a T-Mobile kernel after. (Before rebooting)
Honestly you can run his att rom on tmobile, just flash a working kernel for tmobile.
I dont mind maintaining the thread. I run my thread the way i run it can check out my minions thread to see how i dwell in it.
End of the day it is all up to task, while I may have different opinion on how he run his thread but it is still a good rom. I believe every developer run their threads based on experience...so I am 100% sure task have a reason for how he run his threads and something had occur in his past that allows him to justify what he does. I always say if you dont like how an op run their threads, do not bother posting in it. If you cannot get anyone to help you with troubles, do not bother flashing it...it is that simple. And if you are going to post in the thread you SHOULD know what kind of response you will get from task base on your question and if you foreesee it to be something that will piss you off...just dont post. Just as he can ignore 90% of the useless craps he chooses to reply to the users can also not post 90% of the useless craps they choose to post. XDA is about learning, not babysitting.

When you flash his att rom, just make sure you do not let him know you are from tmobile when asking for a troubleshoot...he WILL rip you a new one lol

So you don't need to edit the updater script?

You do if he specified what devices can flash it, but it's really easy to edit.
Edit: I can confirm it is in his updater script: assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "jflteatt" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "jflteatt");

So is there any way to so it without unzipping the rom?

Use 7zip or just navigate to the updater scrip using windows
