Coming from an HTC Evo 4G, I was surprised at how difficult it was to find ROM information in a complied manner. The XDA Wiki page has a list of ROMs available as shown here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Evo/ROMs. How difficult would it be to compile such a list for the SIII?
As someone who prefers their rooted device to be stock, it's quite difficult to find the latest stock ROM.

Saw that page. Doesn't have any ROM resources that point to stock ROMs, nor shows any way to find them.

I guess you didn't read or scroll far enough. Every single rom in the Sprint Forum is listed and linked and categorized by style, either Touchwiz or AOSP.
As is every kernel and mod which works on the SPH-L710.

After 5 days (seriously) attempting to root my phone I think I finaly managed (I think) and I also installed the CyanogenMod 6.0 ROM which I REALLY don't like it. I actually like the original ROM minus the T-Mobile crap that comes along with it (locked items etc).
Can someone point me in the right direction as to how to remove the CyanogenMod ROM and get back on the original ROM? Is there a ROM that just gets rid of the locked items?
I am a noob and a step by step for idiots would be greatly appreciated
To revert to stock you need to get ESPRIMG.zip and put it in the root of your sdcard. Boot into the bootloader and it will automatically install stock.
Out of curiosity why did you flash CM6 after rooting, you could've stayed stock with root instead.

YAY someone replied!!! (Sorry the excitement but I have been posting for days on different forums and no response )
I think I have the ESPRIMG.zip already on there (it's the file that transfers when doing the initial root right?). Now what exactly do you mean by "put it in the root of your sdcard?" Like on its on and not in a folder?
To answer your question, i followed the instructions on this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=754669 and since it said to add a ROM and the link provided had several links I just looked for one. The CM6 seemed to have good reviews and I just went along with it.
I am a complete noob to flashing/rooting/hacking/etc... phones and thought it was actually needed.
Once I am in bootloader, I do nothing and let the phone act or do I have to select certain options?
Not true, although that is a way, but generally the espr.img file floating around is the engineering build, not stock. If you want the stock ROM with root simply install CR_MOD. It has the ota update applied as well as root maintained. You will also need to remove the espr.img file as it is only needed once.
One other thing, someone is going to do this, so I'll put it nicely.
This is the Development section, not Q&A. This doesn't really have anything to do with development of ROMs or apps, simply how to flash another ROM. There are many guides on how to flash a different ROM, and using the search feature (which you should have done) would have pointed you to CR_MOD which is a stock ROM. If you don't like some of the apps simply remove them from the zip file.
db, I actually did look and read a few http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705345 but they don't say if its for the slide or is it the 2.1 ... does that make sense?
Sorry if I am in the wrong forum, I was trying to be careful to post in the proper one but alas I was wrong a second time....
I just need to be pointed in the right direction and get a step by step guide for noobs in order not to screw my phone.
Would it be possible to transfer this post to the correct forum?
I appologize for the inconvenience.
A moderator can move the thread. There is a guide in this section on how to flash a rom, this section also has the CR_MOD thread where you can download the ROM.

Yes, it will. CR MOD is based off of Stock Espresso. It is a 2.1 ROM with the Espresso Sense, etc. It just has bloatware removed.
Just go to the rom bible or search for CR_MOD 1.35 OTA FULL and it should come up man. If you are patient ill post the link to the thread later and how to flash it.

I really wish people would stop their banterings about being in the wrong forum. The latest sticky on rules in the dev forum states to use the Report button. All you have to do is click that button and a mod will move it faster than 10+ replies as to why it shouldn't be in this forum. Yeah it's frustrating, but getting it moved is only a click away.
To the OP: Use the ROM Bible to find good info on which ROM is which. The sections are named in a retarded fashion, but the section labeled "Before Espresso, Roms Made Sense!" will probably be the ones you want (Sense is the name of the UI that is from HTC and was the stock look of the software).

At the very top of this page there is a search option right? I copy pasted " CR_MOD 1.35 OTA FULL" and all I got were 9 results none of which where the actual link to it.

I guess my noobness on this forum prevents me from asking my question in the development thread, so I have no choice but to ask this here. I just installed the EvoNonsense4.3.1 ROM last night and I'm loving it! Very Cyanogen like but with some sense things still in there. Great combo, IMHO. Just curious as to why the Build Number for this ROM shows up as EvoNonsens4.2? I verified that I did DL the 4.3.1 zip file, so no sure why the proper version is not reflected in the Software Information section. Anywho, loving this ROM so far. Very fast and everything is working great!

You can be a veteran and still should not post questions in the development section.
What you should have done is post your question in the evo non sense thread or pm the developer.....
Now your question is simple. The developer forgot to rename his Rom to the new update. It still is the newest but with the old name/number.

Thanks for the info. Why is it that I shouldn't make a post in the development thread for the ROM? I figured this would be something that the ROM developer would be interested in knowing so that he/she could fix it. Guess I don't know all the rules for XDA yet .

You can post question of a Rom in its thread. You don't make a new thread to ask a question about a Rom. It will clutter the dev section.
Now if you have a non specific Rom question that question can go in this section=q&a

That's my question.
'Original' are ROMs that are made from source or different from stock. 'Android Development' is for ROMs based on the official HTC builds
I'm sure this has been covered before somewhere. I'll link if I can find it.
