I got my Samsung Galaxy S 3 earlier this week and have rooted it and I flashed it with JellyBomb 10.2 I then wiped factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe delvic cache and flashed another rom. I decided I wanted to go back to JBomb 10.2. So I did a wipe factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe delvic cahce and flashed JBomb 10.2 again. Now my camera is not the one it shows in the screen shots. I can't even view the picture without closing the camera and opening the gallery icon. So I wiped the cache and wiped delvic again, and flashed JBomb again. Still the same camera program, which is not what I had the first time I flashed the phone. Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks...

I tried flashing this ROM and after doing so and wiping both caches I rebooted the phone. As the phone rebooted the the first screen to appear was the Paranoid Android screen (with the jelly beans in the Android) and the phone remains stuck there. Is there anything I can do to restore the phone to default so I can flash the ROM again or even get the phone to another screen other than the one it is on? I haven't been able to use it all day even after a hard reset...I'm stuck
Try wiping cache, then dalvik
Did you make a backup prior to flashing? If not, you should make a habit of doing so to due to instances such as this. You can always boot into recovery, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe davlik cache, format system.. Then either try to re flash paranoid android or chose another rom to load.

As the title states, my phone only plays video such as on youtube or the twitch.tv app when the ui is present. So once the video title and play/pause buttons disappear then the video, or stream playback stops.
I'm on the newest version of MOAR, clean flash (wiped dalvik system and cache x3), no system data restored through TiBu but I did restore app and app data. I'm using freeza's optimized kernel with no tweaks currently.
I hope someone can help because I can't watch videos without constantly tapping the screen to keep the video playing but then I can only see about half the video lol. Thank you to anyone who tries to help! And let me know if you need anymore info.

You didn't mention a factory reset in the clean install thus not a clean install. You have all data from previous rom underlying under your flash of MOAR. Clean flash consist of wiping cache, and factory reset. Dalvik wipe is not necessary because when you do factory reset it will wipe dalvik also.

If you did not also do a Factory Reset before you Flashed. Then you did not do a Full Wipe. You can try booting into Recovery, Wipe Dalvik Cache, Wipe Cache, Fix Permissions, and Reboot. If that does not work I would suggest You do a Full Wipe ( System - Data - Dalvik Cache - Cache - Factory Reset ) . Then Flash the Rom. Before Flashing the Rom I would also suggest checking the MD5 Checksum.

As i said in my last post i did do a factory reset, and I did check the md5 checksum as well
Edit: Thanks for reminding me to try clearing caches and fixing permissions, i should've tried that a while ago and all is well again. Thanks for the help guys

Ok experts.
First of all, thank you for reading this post. This shows me you read the subject line and in your heart, you are willing to help others ( in this case, me ). And for that i thank you.
So...i have flashed roms before on samsung and htc devices. Why is it so hard on LG?
I downloaded a rom and gapps, opened twrp and did wipe cache, dalvik cache, system but not the data because if i do i loose everything including the rom and gapps i downloaded. Then i fashed rom wiped cache and dalvik cach, flashed gapps wipe cache and dalvik cache then fix permission then reboot and it stays stuck on bootloading screen.
Please point out to me what im doing wrong or what am i missing. I have tried flashing this rom 10 times.
Again thanks.

It looks like you're doing it right, but there's a couple things that might be missing.
You should be wiping data also. So in TWRP 2.5.0.0, select the Wipe tab, Factory Reset, then Advanced tab, and select all 4. /system, /data, /cache, /dalvik. This way you have a clean slate. DO NOT HIT THE FORMAT DATA!!! It erases /data/media.
If you're flashing CM for the first time, you need to either use teeny bins, or (I think this still works) flash the CM 10.1 ROM by Shelnutt2. This updates your partitions needed to run CM based ROM's.
Wow. It worked. I failed to notice that reseting the phone was not formating the data...so it worked.
Big thank you.
Issue solved.

Restored from a backup I made in TWRP of NoWizAOSPMod and updated both PRL and Profile before I did Factory Reset 3x Wiped System 3x Wiped Cache 3x and Wiped Dalvik 3x. Everything is working great in PAC of ICE ROM it's just that the no GPS is a deal breaker for me :/ Any idea if I can fix it so that GPS works?

1. Download Touchwiz based ROM
2. Update the crap out of everything
3. GET A GPS LOCK ON MAPS!!!
4. Reboot and Wipe Erything (system, data, cache) (don't need to 3x wipe)
5. Install 4.3 and Gapps
6. Should work!
Hey guys,When I rooted my GS3 I wasn't sure how but kinda stumbled on having it done. When I did it I'm sure I didn't do a factory reset, or wipe the dalvik cache either,is this called a dirty flash? My question is if I want to RE root my phone,can I just simply follow the same procedure even though it's rooted already, and then re flash the WS Rom?..Thanks and please understand this is all new to me so any and all help is greatly appreciated..Phil
There is no need to Reroot. Yea, you did a dirty flash. A clean flash involves wiping cache, dalvik, data, and system. Sometimes it's a good idea to wipe your internal storage as well, copy everything you want off of it and then wipe. I always wipe everything 3 times, just habit. Then flash away!
Thanks, so I can just do a factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, and then re flash my rom? Cool, could this have anything to do with my battery life being bad after this?.. thanks again.

Factory reset isn't enough, you need to wipe data and system as well. As for the battery, anything could be the issue. A clean flash would help.
Update
Update.. I wiped my cache, wiped my dalvik cache, done a factory reset and system wipe ( I guess that's what it's called), and then reflashed the Wicked Sensations Rom, and my phone is operating much smoother. I read that after a new rom flash your battery should be re calibrated so I installed a battery calibrator. I'll post back in a few days with a report on whether or not there is a difference.
