I was running a custom 4.1.1 rom (sprint port) and then flashed the stock rom via odin. Since then my phone cannot detect any GPS satellites (I tried different apps). I even re-flashed the custom rom but it still isn't working. I read somewhere that this could be because of a different kernel.
Can someone held me please?
The Kernel under settings is as follows:
3.0.31-178444

Is this the correct one? If not, how do I rectify this?
Remember, god helps those who help the NOOBS.
Someone mentioned usi g triangle away fixed it for them. I think it was a thread posted in General.

i'd say go through the steps that the op did in the thread doc linked to...
which is... to full wipe and odin back to unrooted stock.
had the gps problem too, this fixed it

Hey guys,
I rooted my epic 4g the other day with the Zedomax kernel. I am having a bunch of radio issues and battery problems as well with this kernel.
I would like to go back to my oem/factory kernel and unroot just for the mean time as bugs get worked out. Does anyone know where I can get the factory kernel that comes from sprint and to restore it completely?
When I went to settings>about phone>Kernel it said -
2.6.35.7-SPH-D710.EG30-CL435735
Anyway to get that back?
Thanks!
DT
There is no where to get the stock kernel as of now

I apologize for those that had wanted an evervolv rom ages ago and I didn't come through for ya. So here's a jellybean 4.2 rom. It's rough, but definitely something to work with. I'm gonna keep this post short. Read through it for links to releases, nightlies and source.
Right now the current source we are working on is Jellybean (Android 4.2.x).
For those that don't know what evervolv is, Evervolv is an AOSP (Android Open Source Project) rom. We're fully open sourced and encourage it with no restrictions. The work put into this rom is community driven and and Evervolv Project is made up of numerous members and contributors.
Current version: 3.2.0p1
Downloads:
Evervolv releases & nightlies
Below is the "Not working" or items that are buggy list. I'm going to keep it short and simple for the time being and let ya'all figure bugs out, and I will update this.
Items that need attention: (Not working or buggy)

No, that's just what is confirmed by me. The device I use to test these builds out is not activated, so data/cell could not work for all I know. This is the first release build I've done for this device, and will need input as to what to fix with Jellybean 4.2.
I appreciate any new development, but unfortunately no wifi is a deal breaker. I'll keep my eyes on it for the next version. Thanks for the development.

Flashes different gapps for jb.

Did NOT flash gapps.
Rom booted fine.
No data or cellular connection.
Tried to insert APN for Verizon. While searching for apn phone went to sleep.
Could not unlock phone afterwards. Just a blank screen.
The rom did boot so that is a good start. Need to figure out why cellular service is not functioning and why the gapps are failing.

Will do, if I can ever get the gapps to download over 3g.
Edit: Well, it didn't get past the splash screen with Aero's v15 kernel. I may tinker a bit more, but I need my phone to be a phone, so...
---------- Post added at 09:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 AM ----------
Okay, after using the kernel failed I tried a normal flash. I was able to boot it and run through setup with gapps installed. I didn't have wifi or verizon data, so it couldn't log me in, so I skipped all that. It seems to run nicely, but there is no built in camera app. If it had data I would have tried a 3rd party. There is a "nightly" released already today, so I wonder if it has any improvements or if the dev is going to have to work on some device specific fixes for the carrier first. I'm definitely willing to keep trying, but I'd like to hear from the dev as to when we might see the data/phone stuff working.
Thanks for bringing it this far.

Dear all,
First post, Please dont bite!
I have used search but its all very confusing and not specific to me
Got my note 2 a few weeks ago, first android device and loving it
Just wondering what the best custom ROM is that allows me to retain that S pen functionality, but still allows all the glorious customisation and deleting of samsung apps i dont want
Also, i have bought 4 or 5 apps, and dont want to lose them when I root, how do I do this?
Many thanks

You dont loose the apps. They are saved in your google account so you can use them in any device.
Also, you can try Android Revolution HD 17. From what I see its the most downloaded ROM that is identical to stock! I also use it and its very very good!

If you mean return to samsung for claim warranty, then your binary count must zero ( use triangle away with stock recovery) and status of phone must be *official*. ( refer dr.ketan method).
Regarding to tweak the battery life and speed, I think is better you keep away of it, if you noob like myself. Without specific knowledge might broken the stable and balancing of the the rom itself.

Hello everyone, first off I want to say I have flashed many different phones with CM over the past few years. I have been a fan of android phones since Day 1. I got a G1 the day they came out and was pretty active in the scene up about about 2 years ago. I had a G2 for awhile as well, loved it... had CM on it as well. Anyway, the problem at hand is this Galaxy S III.
I have flashed many phones for friends and co-workers and whomever asks. I have NEVER had such a problem with flashing a phone as this one.
Apparently its a regionally special model (SGH-T999L).
I have downloaded CWM 6.0.3.1 after rooting with motochopper (easiest root experience ever), then I attempted to flash to CM10.1.2. The phone is currently on 4.1.2. When I attempt to flash from CWM, it gives the assert failed error. I have seen a few other threads about this but they were regarding other carriers (AT&T) and honestly I have tried a million and one things in attempt to get this to flash, I have seriously spent over 8 hours today trying to get this flashed to CM10.1.2 and even 10.1, I even tried using the touch version of CWM and tried TWRP to see if I'd get a different result... But no.. same result.
Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? I have tried everything I can think of on all three platforms... Win7, MacOSX 10.6.8 and Ubuntu 10 and 12.... cannot get it to flash to CM no matter what. I am almost positive it is something I am overlooking. If anyone knows how to get past this please let me know, I will gladly send you a present via fedex.
Thanks in advance.
Senor Y.

Basically in some roms, particularly cm and aosp roms they check the bootloader to make sure its up to date. The T999L is just so new that many devs have not yet added its bootloader to the updater-script. Read the info I have in the thread I linked and if you need help editing the script, let me know.
Ill try to fix and upload the rom shortly, just to make it easy for everyone.

Thanks again man, I followed your instructions and removed the assert lines... flashed with 10.1.2 -- then flashed the gapps back on and in business on the first try.
I am going to pass the link along to #Cyanogenmod on freenode because there wasn't anyone on there who could help me last night.

Doc,
One last question, is there a baseband update I need to apply for CM10.1.2 / 4.2.2 ? -- I got the gapps installed and there doesn't appear to be problems yet, but the know-it-alls in #cyanogenmod seem to think I need to install a baseband update but they cannot provide me with a link... so I was wondering what your take on that is.
Thanks again,

It's bad advice. Ignore it.
Very bad advice! !!
Baseband is your modem which should have nothing to do with your rom. They probably meant bootloader. But the T999L only has one version of firmware available right now, so it wouldn't be possible anyway. Theyd probably tell you to use MD5, but that would brick your phone!
Glad you asked!

I can't seem to find a kernel that will play nice with my phone. I'm running the latest dandroid rom, and every kernel I've tried makes everything all glitchy, and after minutes unusable. I'm not new to flashing, or modding my phone at all. I've done all the wiping and permission fixing. Anyone have any ideas? I'm trying to find a kernel that will keep my bluetooth connected to my car when playing music. That's a whole other problem I've been having someone suggested trying a new kernel.
Have you given the stock md5 kernel a shot? I've got one that'll remove anything added by other custom ones and has the correct stock modules if you want to give it a shot.
I'll post the link in a few. @TheLastSidekick has a kernel thread in the General section too if you want to look there.
