Hello everyone! I'm new to this forum so let's make a first post.
I've always used OTG with my 32gb flash drive with stock rom and it worked perfectly, but with liquidsmooth it doesn't work... well, not like before. When I insert the flash drive I get "SD card removed" looping in notification bar and after couple seconds my phone crashes, auto reboots. I can get a 8gb flash drive to work SOMETIMES, my external HDD usb powered doesn't work either. Is it something with the ROM or is it kernel related?
I also get "Damaged" or "Blank" SD card.. it seems very buggy..
The USB host app it said everything was fine except "Rooted API:N/A", I don't even know what is rooted api
This is the only thing that bugs me about this setup..
PS: I have a S3 i747M (rogers). How can I make a signature and put useful spec in it?
Anyone ?

I had a similar problem. My phone reset during a flash and corrupted my data partition. I had to do a full "format data" in wipe to fix it.
Go back to stock rom???

Hi all, this is my first post and i hope to take advantage from it.
I've done a lot of research in the android development forums. The first thing i did to my phone was to get it rooted. So far so good, i followed the instructions and everything went ok.
Now i want to install a ROM. Thing is there is a lot of terminology i do not quite understand and i want to know for sure how this process is done correctly. In theory i know how to install a ROM but some disclaimers keeps me from doing it.
The main question here is, my phone has to meet some prerequisites in order to install a ROM? I mean, the android version of my phone, baseband version, kernel version and build number necessarily need to have the same characteristics from the ROM i will be flashing? For example, Team Kang's Juggernaut base band version is T989VKID mine is T989UVKL1, the android version is 2.3.5, mine is 2.3.6 and so on. That basically is it. I do not want to mess up my phone but at the same time i wanna enjoy those great roms.
Thanks in advance and i wish a happy valentine's day to all
Download ROM manager. Pick install from sd card. Wipe data and cache. Pick the ROM you downloaded. Just make sure you only install roms from this forum
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
The answer to your question is basically no. Roms don't change your baseband. So that doesn't matter. If your on 2.36 and you install a 2.35 ROM you'll just be on 2.35. But in the case of a kickass ROM that would be just fine.

You can do backups from whichever source, it doesnt matter

Thank you Dark Knight. I am in the same situation as you. The only difference is that I have yet to root my phone because I haven't gotten a microSD card yet. Would you mind me PMing you with some questions? haha, noob to noob.

instead of using rom manager, I would suggest doing everything from the CWM recovery itself. The manual way is always better and you encounter less problems along the way..
i.e. backup/restore isn't complete. didn't wipe everything clean... etc.

Yeah that's what I do, besides I hate how rom manager saves backups on my internal memory
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
I could be wrong but I think the last version of CWM wont let you make backups to the internal but you can flash from the internal. But the newest touch version that just came out a few weeks ago does have internal suppoert for backups so you have to flash the latest one. And I would listen to them when they say not to use rom manager there are far too many problems with it. Also the latest version of juggs is 4.1 and that is 2.3.6. I would use that one. Good luck

You normally have to do a full wipe b4 installing a different ROM.
Chk out this site (galaxys2root.com) it gives me a lots of EASY TO UNDERSTAND info when i started playing with ROMs.Currently i am on my fifth ROM .
Yes do full wipe, Clear caches and do a nandroid back up first thou and make sure after flashing and re booting to let it sit for 10min

It rebooted a couple times like it said it would then when it rebooted to put in pin I entered the pin it started decrypting. I left it for 4 hours well it wouldn't work so I pulled battery and retried and left it go well it hung for hours. I proceeded to try a factory reset and it kept failing at the /data "cannot mount"... I tried wiping the internal SD it too failed. so now im trying to odin the "official stock" image it keeps getting hung at the "NOH-HLOS.bin" for HOURS anyone with anything please help me out
Can you boot into the system at all? If so can you install any apps?
Are you rooted?
If yes to all try Mobile Odin to flash, may be able to work around the problem....im not sure.
Otherwise try using goo or rom manager to install recovery and then flash another rom.
Not sure any of thatll work, just some suggestions.

Easiest thing would be to put a ROM on an SD card and flash it in recovery.
Other option is to Odin back to stock in download.
Edit.....
For future reference here is task's full wipe video to avoid wiping something by accident.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6dYSumHaxwI&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Also please remember to flash and wipe exactly as instructed in the ROM thread

With your ROM being wiped your computer won't recognize your phone unless you are in download mode using Odin to go back to stock.
If you don't have a SD card adapter to put in your computer to put a rom on you'll have to Odin back to stock.

I don't know what carrier you are on but use this guide to download the proper stock (unrooted, you'll need to re-root) ROM for your specific carrier.
All the tools and instructions you need are on this site. Unsure how to use Odin? Try a youtube search for your carrier and model.

I find that if you successfully flash a ROM and get stuck in a boot loop to reboot into recovery and factory reset. Seems to work.

Flashing stock is pretty much your only option. From there, you can flash a custom recovery and then CM10.

Micro SIM not sitting properly? I had this when I first had the phone and cut my own SIM to a micro one. It kept moving in the slot til I put a little wedge in there.
Well, Everything is fine now. I figure out myself. The problem was that imei messed up. I simply restored my backed up imei usig es explorer. My note 2 is flying like new. Thank you guys for your support!
So I know how to root the device, I'm just having a few problems. First, my laptop isnt recognizing my phone in download mode. Is there a driver I need to install for the phone? Second, odin isnt opening on my laptop either. It has worked many many times before but right now when I open it, it shows this box that says "odin (little boxes next to it)" and an "okay" button. Once I click the "okay" button" It quickly opens and closes odin not allowing me to do anything.
Can someone help me out a little?

It said i had those drivers installed already, but I did them again anyway. And those are the 2 versions of odin I've always used, but I'm going to download yours and try them also. Thanks, and I'll let you know if they work.
Odin is acting the same way as mine did. I'm pretty sure somethings up with my laptop. I'll try restarting it or playing with its settings to see whats going on.

Try to uninstall to the drivers and reinstall them, then get the latest ODIN for the s3. And try to root. If that doesnt work. Use a different computer like your friends. .

I'm looking for TW at the moment so no Cyanogen roms. And what kind of tweaks and mods are there to look for in a ROM? i need something similar to voodoo sound.

Thanks, I seen it. There is so many things.
I'm mostly interested in sound volume hacks and mods. I flashed univers4 ROM and it comes with the ACID thing for sound but I dont really know whats it doing. I'm used to having voodoo sound which is enabled from the kernel. Is there any mods that actually allow you to override the system settings for at least headphone volume? I want my phone as loud as can be lol.
