I have been running through rubbish sense based ROMs that are easily flashable in clockworkMod recovery v5.0.2.0 , and i need to get cm7 ,right.. (excuse my n00b-ness) But how do i go about getting that , and then how do i go about installing the aosp ROMs? Also, nightlie, (checking to see if i researched correctly) They are basically over the air updates ect,ect.? Correct or am i missing something completely ? Help a n00b out. You'll get your thanks obviously =]
Cm7 is an aosp ROM all to itself. You don't need to run this ROM if you don't want to. But, a lot of people love cm7.
There are several aosp roms that are also very good. Liquid, miui, omfgb... To name a few.
Nightlies are roms that are built by a computer program. This process is used to develop a stable ROM. For the most part, nightlies are buggy and don't always completely work. As a noob, these might frustrate you. I would stick to a stable version. Just my opinion, try them if you want to.
Aosp roms are flashed in the same manner as a sense based ROM. Through recovery. It is important to wipe cache, dalvik cache, and do a factory data reset when you interchange between sense and aosp roms.
I hope I have answered some of your questions. XDA is an excellent place to expand your knowledge. Your noobness will wear off soon...

Here is a link to the stable cm7 ROM. You will need to download the ROM itself, and the Google apps (gapps) .zip files.
Do a full wipe, flash the rom, then flash the gapps file. This can be done in the same recovery session, no need to reboot first. But... Flash the ROM first, gapps second.
Also, check the stickies in the general section. There are several guides that fellow members have writen to help people who are new to all of this. I have found them quite helpful.

Aside from what you mentioned in the OP, what's different from the ACS ROM?
Is there any theming in this ROM? The name suggests a bit of a Gothic theme.

Is this flashing? Also, is the telephony.db fix working on this?
Has anyone tried the telephony fix yet for MMS?
I'll try it when I get home and post that.
Thanks for the ROM by the way!

Same here not flashing through CWM (aborted Status 6.....I think that's what it said), I'm checking the updater-script now to see if that's the hang-up... Will report back...
UPDATE:
Let me preface this comment by saying that I am not a Developer, but I've sometimes been able to fix aborted flash attempts in CWM by making corrections in the updater-script in cases that the updater-script calls for a different device (such as Maguro, Toro, etc) by changing the wrong device to "Toroplus"..
For the other Themes/ROM's in which I've updated the updater script (the updater-script is located in the META-INF > com > google > android folder, with "update-binary" file) there's only been two files in the android folder, 1) update-binary and 2) updater-script, but your ROM has three files; 1) update-binary, 2) updater-script and 3) updater-script~. I've attached three PDF's that compare the updater-script files in Gothic Rom and the updater-script file from ACS Jelly Belly Rom that I downloaded through GooManager today but I can't figure out the issue(s) but maybe someone else can. Here are the files:
DOWNLOAD PDF Comparison between the "updater-script" file and "updater-script~" files from Gothic Rom.
DOWNLOAD PDF comparison between the "updater-script" file from the Jelly Belly Rom and the "updater-script" file from Gothic Rom.
DOWNLOAD PDF comparison between the "updater-script" file from the Jelly Belly Rom and the "updater-script~" file from Gothic Rom.
Can someone make sense of this?

Hey guys I'm new to the whole rooting and roming thing, i just rooted my phone yesterday and with nice guides from qbking77 in YouTube I was able to install AOSP Alpha 6 jb ROM using agar recovery so now that you know my lil story my question is...
To install a new ROM all I have to do is copy to sdcard the files, boot agar recovery do the 3 wipe steps and install? Or do I have to restore my stock recovery first then wipe?
Very sorry for my big newb question but I hope ppl can help me
Thanks.

Welcome to rooting.. so if im getting your question right you want to go to a new ROM possibly.. and youre on AOSP..well since you are new I would suggest using a one click odin (your choice ) and start from there since you are on A JB build ...
-TeaM VeNuM Like A Boss
+1 for one click of your choice, make sure you pick a full wipe one though.
Tappin' Typin'
I would flash over the EL26 CWM kernel, first it just makes it easier for you, and is a very safe recovery to flash from.
Thank you guys, actually I just wanted to know what to do when I decide to explore others roms but for now I really like this one so Ima stay here a while I didnt knew rooting would be this cool but new roms and with apps like setcpu this is very nice, thanks again.

Oh I see well all is your choice on the path..one major thing I suggest is when moving from ROM to ROM back up your apps ..(non system apps)and make sure to wipe on a safe recoveries (Kuban kernel, agats, el26) problems can arise from dirty installs
I also suggest ROM toolbox from the play store its a great tool that basically does everything

dsixda's Android Kitchen - Now for Samsung Galaxy SIII SGH-T999
Compatible with Windows (Cygwin) / Linux / Mac OS X
The following is a guide to assist you with creating your own Samsung Galaxy SIII SGH-T999(V) (T-Mobile, Wind, Mobilicity, Videotron) custom ROMs with the kitchen. This is NOT a guide to help you become Cyanogen or do fancy things with AOSP, but it may be your springboard to bigger things in the future.
Some of you already know about the Android Kitchen. It is a project I started on back in February 2010 to help newbies create their own custom ROMs and learn more about Android. As of the latest versions, you can now create your own Galaxy S3 T999 ROMs with the kitchen.
IMPORTANT: For all other Galaxy S3 variants, this guide may not be exactly the one you're looking for. There may be support for your S3 device in the kitchen, but I'd need to post different instructions. Check the first post of the kitchen thread for any updates for linked instructions.
I'd like to thank Jamison904 for testing and providing feedback, which is always appreciated!
[MAIN PAGE] [RELEASE NOTES] [FAQ - page 1] [FAQ - page 2]
GUIDE
First, you need a rooted Samsung Galaxy SIII SGH-T999 with a custom recovery menu, which allows flashing of custom ROMs.
Visit the Android Kitchen thread to download the kitchen. Then, follow the link to the FAQ which will show you how to install it on Windows, Linux or Mac OS X. Ensure you read the FAQ carefully.
Put one or more of your base ROM(s) under the original_update folder. For the Samsung Galaxy S3 T999, there is support for the following formats (that I know of) which can be placed in that folder:
Stock firmware:
system.img.ext4, cache.img.ext4, boot.img
or TAR/ZIP file containing the above. NOTE: If the TAR file name ends with "MD5", remove the MD5 part from the name.
OR Custom ROM:
IMPORTANT!! If you chose a ZIP file then it must be one that was created by the kitchen from the stock firmware, not through other means (NOTE: The kitchen may NOT support custom ROMs created through other methods such as CyanogenMod, due to potential file structure incompatibility issues)
OR Nandroid backup from custom recovery image:
system.img, cache.img and boot.img
system.ext4.tar, cache.ext4.tar and boot.img
Here are some basic steps to creating your first ROM after you have your base of files under original_update (more options are available in the kitchen):
Start the kitchen with: ./menu
Create a working folder (by choosing your base ROM)
Root your ROM
Add Busybox
Optional: Disable boot sounds
Optional: In the Advanced options menu: De-odex your ROM (your mileage may vary as to whether this works 100%)
Build ROM
The ROM is built into a ZIP file meant for flashing from the custom recovery menu. No Odin. Make a Nandroid backup of your current system before you flash anything!
Some notes:
Just select the defaults whenever you are asked about something in the kitchen and are unsure whether to type 'y' or 'n'.
There are lots of questions answered in the FAQ in Posts 3 and 4 of the main Android Kitchen thread. So if you have issues with your installation, please go through that first before asking questions in this thread.
For the benefit of other readers and to prevent confusion, please only discuss the Samsung Galaxy SIII SGH-T999 in this thread!
Most of all, have patience, take your time and enjoy!!
Thank you dsixda!

Basically updater-script fixes for the SGS3. All the painful work, such as file extraction and boot.img extraction/re-packing with correct headers was already done when I was working on the Galaxy S2 variants.

Yes! Those pesky updater-scripts always gave me a problem writing them myself (you know because I always came to you lol).
Might some a few hours with it after work.
Does it have a port feature by chance? If so, how good is it? Cygwin always gave me problems.

Just go read nearly all the general stuff toppic is what i do when i have a new phone. Today i got a second gio that needs fixing and a update.. For fun i start with the general toppic. Than i progress the other thopic's. Put some time in it to understand stuff.
See if you can backup the phone system and root the phone. Next a new recovery and a new rom. The info is all in this part of the gio forum.

building a rom from source is simple
you only need to setup the source directorys and sync some stuff the let the automated compile progress hapen and done
everyone can do this
but modifying java and xml
c++ c etc
is mostly on source
if you take like stock rom and smali modify its gonna be bit harder because of no source
but alsomore fun
