Hi
I'm new to android and is kind of confusing to me on how everything works. Right now I have a at&t Galaxy s3 running android version 4.0.4. I've been wanting to upgrade to the latest jelly bean version. I did try upgrading from the software from Samsung Kies but it does not want to work, it does not recognize the phone completely. I am rooted (Kernel version - 3.0.8) and also I have a rom installed (Triune II) that I basically do not remember how I did it. All I want is to find a way to install the latest jelly bean software on my phone. I did search the forums here at XDA developers website but cannot find a way to do it since there is so many roms and software's to choose from and I'm worried about breaking my phone since I do not know exactly which one to download. I don't know how everything with android really works with all the Kernels and all these things. I would appreciate if anyone could help me with this issue. Please!!!
Thanks
Nelson
You didn't search but its OK
You can't upgrade rooted devices via Kies.
If you were able to flash one custom rom you should be able to do it again by simply following directions on a ROMs thread.
Look for your desired ROM (the name and android version is the name of the thread)
And just follow instructions and you should be set

Yes after you're rooted you can go from 4.0 to 4.2
Make sure your recovery is up to date.
If its not you can find the latest in the ATT Android Development thread
When flashing AOSP based ROMs like Liquid Smooth make sure to follow the instructions and download both ROM and Gapps files and flash them both ( 1st ROM than Gapps) and you should be set.

Like I said don't give it false information.
Just because you failed at using a simple recovery doesn't mean others as well. You're the only person I seen complaining about this. So its clearly you.
TWRP works great and I haven't updated mine in over 7months and I've never had an error flashing.
@Nelson please don't listen to this guy.

Click menu than your option should be there.
I recommend trying them all out!
No ROM will be better than another.
It all comes down to you and the features you want. Read the ROMs description and see what they're packed with.
Watch a YouTube video or read up on how to wipe your cache & delvik, factory reset and all that before flashing so you boot up with out errors.
Its quite easy and fun.
Do not install anything thru GooManager unless you know absolutely what you are doing. Stick to ATT Android Development and ATT Original Android Development ... Do not and I repeat DO NOT FLASH ANYTHING FROM INTERNATIONAL S3 OR ANY OTHER PHONE. YOU WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE

Yea, I will now... after you explain everything now it looks more simpler I did not know for a fact that I could flash a jelly bean rom if I was still on 4.0 now I get the meaning of a rooted device. Also I notice I can download roms thru that app goomanager. After the download is complete for both the rom and gapps I can go ahead and get into recovery and flash them right? Also one last question... nandroid is for me to do a backup? I will find that in recovery mode? How does it really work?

Yes once they're downloaded flash thru recovery but remember to wipe! And make sure what you have downloaded is absolutely for the US veriant of the S3 or has d2att in the name.
Nandroid will be found in TWRP recovery.
Its just kind of like assurance. If you flash something that boot loops you can revert to your backup.

Wish I could help you with that. But I can help you with this sound piece of advice, if you manage to get that .zip, DO NOT FLASH IT UNTIL you flash the flash counter removal .zip, so they can't tell you ever rooted/flashed on your phone. After flashing that, than proceed to flash that stock .zip...all the best and good luck to you!

I can try to make a CWM/TWRP not De-odexed or rooted out of the stock T989 UVLH1 tar file and make a flashable stock recovery, once I get off work.
Edit 1:Uploading Flash-able SGH-T989 UVLH1 stock rom to Dev-host(20 minutes to finish upload) wait for confirmation i need to test it on my device 1st once is done uploading in the mean time i will make flash-able stock recovery and test it also.
Edit 2:Uploading done both rom and recovery, going to download now both and test it.

Ok testing completed, everything works as it should. The ROM zip will update your kernel to stock.
Might need to flash the UVLH1 radio 1st before flashing the stock recovery.
This is how I did it(tested it):
1. install/flash stock ROM 1st.
2. Once installation completed Reboot to custom recovery.
3. install/flash stock recovery.zip.
4. Power off to verified stock recovery.

First pointer post in the right section and answer use Odin to restore back to factory and possibly restart...

Yes, I use Twrp with N8013. But if I'm plan to flashing all time I use CWM which is very easy to use and if I want for warranty all I do restore to stock. Toolkit , Twrp ,CWM are same depend on your experience and your taste.
Hey guys, I just picked up a new Galaxy S3 this morning and I'm not sure how to install a custom AOKP rom.
I've already rooted the phone, but because the firmware is 4.1.1 I'm unsure how to proceed.
Should I just install the latest AOKP rom version, or do I need to upgrade to a newer firmware while still using stock and go from there?

Should be in the q&a threads...
You'll need to install a custom recovery (twrp or cwm)
Than you can flash any ROM you want. If you want Tasks aokp just download the newest version and most recent gapps and flash as instructed in the thread.

Make sure you have the latest version of cwm. They're at 6.0.2.3 if your recovery isn't at that than the flash won't work properly.

Cwm 6.0.3.1 is the most recent, not 6.0.2.3. You can find it in post #2, at the bottom. It's a zip you can flash in cwm

Either way, I don't know much about compiling kernels. And the consensus seems to be that your kernel is pretty good, so I'm gonna stick with it.
Thanks for the reply, and I appreciate your work on the rom. Cheers!

Irecently tried to flash cm10.1.2 the "stable" version of cm by I keep getting error 7. I am running the latest cwm recovery 6.0.3.1 and had no problem installing 10.1.1 a week or so ago. I have downloaded it multiple times just incase it was corrupted during the download and no luck. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any feedback would be great

IIRC I had this issue a while back and it has to do with the bootloaders. Error 7 means (I think) it doesn't recognize something about your device so it stops before causing issues.
I had to go back to stock and then the flash worked fine.

I know what status 7 is, I have downloaded the proper rom and my recover is the latest one. Today is not the first time I have flashed a cm rom but it is the first time I have flagged a"stable" release

You'll have to go back to a stock 4.1.1 or 4.0.4 ROM first. Then install CWM, and your ROM should install fine. I had the same issue, and this is my solution.

Not trying to be a ****. You ask what status 7 is. You're given the answer and also asked to search and you reply with attitude.
JayRokk myself and xBeerDroidx see this come up once to twice a day. So please don't take it personally and search next time.

You don't have to flash a stock rom. Just flashing the bootloader is sufficient. No sense downloading a 1.1gb file if you don't have too.

The first line in your op was "I keep getting error 7"
The actual error on the screen is "status 7" we were both half right
That's all you need to search for. Status 7 isn't rom specific you can get it flashing any rom. These threads are for helping, and I don't mind doing it, its just a lot of people need to learn how to try to help themselves first.
There is an interesting video on the homepage for xda where they say "there are 5+ million users in the forums, chances are your problem is new " interesting watch.
Getting back to the issue at hand. If your recovery is up to date than it's your bootloader. The link I added gets you to where you need to be. Don't flash the MF1 (if on a Canadian carrier) though as some roms haven't changed the script to allow it to flash and you'd get the same issue.
Let me know if you're still stuck

I did not feel like reading 10,000 Q and A's so here goes. I want to flash a 4.4.2 rom and I think everyone knows twrp 2.6.3.1 will not do it so I have been trying to overwrite it with clockwork but have not been able to on my ATT s3. I have a Verizon I did it to without any problem but everything I try fails. I need help please. What am I doing wrong?

The answer is a topic for another thread. The ROM Manager app could solve your problem, but no one who read your OP knows enough about your failed procedure or your phone's current state to offer specifics.
The 10,000 Q&A are your friends. GUIDES, Indexes, TUTORIALS & Stickys are even friendlier.

Maybe I am on the wrong thread but I thought this was for questions? I am using Dirty Unicorns 4.3.1 and I tried the clockwork application several times but with no success. At one time clockwork was the recovery I was using but I overwrote it with Odin to get team win back but that was when I was content with 4.3.1 Now I flashed liquid smooth 3.0 on my Verizon with clockwork and I would like to try Beanstalk 4.4.2.1......on the Phone I use every day but TWRP fails every time. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and I am sorry if this is the wrong thread I am kind of new at all this.

BCSC, Thank you for the link...and the short answer. I'LL try it in the morning so I won't screw anything up

I suggest flashing Philz Touch. You can flash it via Odin (use the tar version) or from your custom recovery (use the zip version).
Philz is based off the latest CWM and it works perfectly on my i747m.

Thanks, I used flashify and flashed it without any problem. I thought about using Philz but heard you needed small fingers for the touch part. Thanks though

You can adjust the height of the font to make it larger than it would be in cwm.
I did not know that, thanks I'll give it a try

If you don't like it, you can always flash back CWM Touch. The font colours and background are also changeable.
