CWM disappearing? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

So I am just editing a post I made as I figured out the problem. However, I have a new weird issue.
I just flashed CWM. I remember reading something recently about taking the battery out of the phone right after flashing so the stock recovery wouldn't overwrite CWM. I did that, and got into CWM to fix my copy/paste issue. However, I just restarted the phone, then turned it off again to try to go back into CWM and the stock recovery is back again.
What did I miss? I can't seem to find the info about ensuring CWM stays on my phone.
Thanks!

It seems that I was also Able to reflash with rom manager and reboot to cwm. Is there a downside to using that method occasionally?

Switching custom ROMs

Having run my i747 as rooted stock for some time, I'm curious about custom ROMs (such as latest stable Cyanogen 10), but the process seems onerous and tedious. I don't want to reinstall and reconfigure apps and repopulate contacts each time. Yet I read that some are regularly switching among ROMs. Are they spending days doing what I noted above or are there alternatives methods?
If there are threads regarding this I must have missed them in my searches of the site. If there's a detailed xda wiki, that would be helpful.
You can read here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1725839 it's got all the info you need to instal custom roms there is even a section on how to reinstall all settings and apps in 10 min. You can use titanium backup in the play store to backup and restore all your apps but on cm10 and aokp roms I think it's best to reinstall apps through google play store one at a time to see if they are compatible. Gmail syncs all your contacts so once you set up your email you get them all back to your contact list on your phone. It gets easy after your first custom rom just make a back up with cwm or twrp first and you can always revert if you don't like it. Good luck

Get titanium backup, new feature: create an update.zip for all your apps. Basically it puts your apps into one zip, you flash it and everything is on your device first time you power on
Edit: you need cwmr for this

Ah, that's interesting about update.zip, which is same name as for OTA updates I think.
I have TB Pro with auto update, but haven't looked at new features in a while. I also have CWM and use ROM Manager to boot into recovery. Does the backup include the configuration/data for the apps? And this would include live wallpapers? What about contacts and photos?
And, if I should wish to return to rooted stock ROM and all settings/apps, that's with nandroid recovery?

You create your own zips so anything on tibu that's there can be in the zip. Data as well I believe. You can find the option if you hit then list at top right with the check on it. Should be in purpleish letters.
If you wish to return to stock just restore a backup and your good.

In reading the 10-minute flashing thread, someone noted that custom ROMs that don't format the data partition can be flashed from stock and simply rebooted, but I can't determine which of these ROMs preserves the existing data partition, such as CM and AKOP. Can you offer any advice regarding this?

Most ROMs require clean wipe when coming for another ROM/stock.
As for which rom preserves the data partition I have no idea, I just generally use tibu. I don't mind the 15-20 min setup considering all the work and hours that go into making the rom

Agreed! A full data wipe may be a small hassle, but you'll regret not taking the time to do so when you encounter problems with your new ROM as a result of a dirty flash.
The more you flash and become experienced with the process, the quicker and easier it becomes. I'm new to android and flashing, but in the last two months I've learned my way around and love it.

So, having dropped phone and -- despite wrap-around case -- shattered glass, I've sent it into Samsung for repair and purchased another identical one, which I've set up like first but have not rooted. Samsung may reset phone in for repair, but even if not, I'm realizing I could simply wipe everything and start from scratch, rooting and then flashing ROMs to see what I like. No data or config stuff to back up since unrooted phone takes care of that.
Where might I find a comprehensive discussion of all current custom ROMs and reviews of them. The threads for specific ROMs are numerous, but I'm looking for more of an overview and features/issues comparison. I keep running across ROM names in threads I've not seen before.
Thanks for any favorite thread links.

frustrated!
I have Rogers S3 which is the same as the AT&T model.
I've tried multiple times to flash CM10 on this phone with no luck.
I'm able to root and I've followed all the steps from multiple sources and still can't get it to work.
Once I wipe all the cache's I find the CM10 file, when I go to install it, it fails to install. Not sure what to do. Says installation aborted with a lot of other code I don't understand.
Please help.

I would try a different ROM, now that you know how to, try out a few and see how you like them. Cm10 in my opinion isn't the most stable or best ROM out there.
Good ones to try are task650 aokp,paranoid android, and maybe even one of the touch wiz jelly bean like dragon origins or hellfire they are all great ROMs. All with 4g working of course.

CWM, and I've tried a couple different versions all saying they are compatible with my phone.
Are you running nightlies or stable CM10?
Im running stable and it flashed right out of the gate and works flawlessly..no camera issues, no MMS isses, LTE works etc. I came from Task650's AOKP JB4.1.2 to this no problem. Just make sure you flash the proper G-apps.

I had the same issue with several roms it was frustrating to say the least, and on top of it I was having issues with the one rom I could flash
I discovered it was the version/type of recovery I was using wasnt supported (I guess an old version of clockwork mod)
I installed goo manager and after some confusion pressed the menue button and let it install the twrp recovery (which I like better actually)
I was then able to follow the instructions in this thread to get it to work.
I was also able to get the LTE to work (called 4G now) -also on rogers

You are EXACTLY correct and I would guess 99.9% that is the problem. Follow his directions through goomanager that is just how I fixed the exact same problem. This ROM is the bom!

Okay, so STILL can't get this working.
I've re-rooted, and verified. I installed goomanager as well as TWERP. Still unable to install cm10 zip file.
In goomanager I select available roms and it says there are none, which is weird because from the youtube videos I should be able to see cyanogenmod right?
This is driving me nuts, not sure what else to do here.

FORGET IT! I give up. After my many attempts my indicator light was not working properly. Downloaded the factory stock rom and started fresh. No choice but wait for Rogers/Samsung to release Jelly Bean.

I think I screwed my phone... but hope not!

Well, I should have backed up everything in CWM, but I didnt...
At lease I backed it up in Kies.
I am hoping that somebody can offer me some advice on how to recover my data thru Kies.
I have a AT&T Galaxy S3 that I rooted. I backed up everything using Samsung Kies and then I installed the AOKP ROM. Sure, the AOKP rom works, but I have lost all my contacts, pictures, etc... but its all on Kies.
I found a stock Samsung ROM called I747UCALG1_I747ATTAL_ATT.zip (I think this is the stock ROM), but there is an error when I try to install it from the internal SD card.
I have model #I747UCLG1 and model version I747UCLG1
What do I need to do to recover??
Any advice is ENORMOUSLY appreciated!

I tried this method, but Kies did not recognize my Serial Number. It was the right format, but just didnt recognize the number.
What about flashing a stock ROM?
Ive looked for the stock ROM and tried that way, but got the error below...

My phone doesn't like Skies because Skies never recognized it. So I dont know how Skies works and what will you do after going back to stock. About the I747UCALG1_I747ATTAL_ATT.zip, it contains the *.tar file inside. The only way you can use that to restore back to stock is using it with ODIN. You can't not flash it because it is not flashable. If I am right, the file is a non-root stock. You will have to root the phone again after ODIN. There is another file named root69.stock_ATT_I747UCALG1, if you want to go back to stock and rooted, then you can use Odin with that file.
I flashed the stock ICS ROM and then got it sync ed with Kies. Got my contacts back! Going to install AOKP more carefully this time around and back up my contacts properly...
Thanks for the tips!

You have an outdated recovery. You need to:
For clock work mod recovery
go to the play store
Get ROM manager
Download recovery for your device
Flash via ROM manager
For team win recovery project(I recommend this one, much easier and better interface)
go to play store
Get goo manager
Open goo manager and hit menu
Install open recovery script
Goo manager will do the rest
After this you can flash the ROMs you want. Any other help that is needed for twrp or cwmr let me know

What model do you have? Carrier? What option did you first choose for a kernel?
You're like the 50th user in here this week with this issue on hyperdrive. It would appear the device type in the build.prop is being is being edited and there is a conflict during the boot process causing this soft brick. Anyone with more knowledge than this please chime in.
If you can still get back into recovery, your options are probably to restore a backup or flash another rom. In download mode you could flash stock stock rooted via odin. If your s3 is not recognized on your pc, there is a flashable stock firmware zip in the link in my signature. In post #2 at the bottom

i'm trying to do is installing the rls 9 and then update see if this help
So the very first time you flashed hyperdrive, you selected at&t and the ziggy kernel and it didn't work? I'm assuming you gave it plenty of time on the first boot up. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but hyperdrive is a verizon base, yes? If so, this might be the source of your problem, even though it is a "multi-carrier" rom. You can try wiping data, cache and dalvik in recovery then rebooting. Like i said, though, you will probably have to another route (restore backup or flash new rom). When you successfully boot up next, I would imagine your model is different in about phone

So the very first time you flashed hyperdrive, you selected at&t and the ziggy kernel and it didn't work? I'm assuming you gave it plenty of time on the first boot up. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but hyperdrive is a verizon base, yes? If so, this might be the source of your problem, even though it is a "multi-carrier" rom. You can try wiping data, cache and dalvik in recovery then rebooting. Like i said, though, you will probably have to another route (restore backup or flash new rom). When you successfully boot up next, I would imagine your model is different in about phone

If you're really wanting to get this particular rom going, changing to twrp might help. In my signature there is a link. Near the bottom of post #2 flashable recovery zips are mentioned. Download the twrp one and throw it on your phone. Boot into recovery and flash it. Reboot recovery. Wipe data, cache and try flashing the rom again.

It could take 10 or so minutes for the initial boot. If it takes a lot longer, you can try booting back onto recovery to wipe data and cache again. If this does not work, I would go another route

ok , if not i'll try to flash some other kernels to see if it boots up , i f not i'll just give up on this rom and go back to synergy
When you're back up and running on a rom, go into settings > about phone and tell me what your device is listed as. You may have small issues down the road if your phone has been designated as an SCH-I535 or anything other than SGH-I747. That's an easy build.prop fix, though. Good luck
