Kernel

Im rooted on stock, I bought ROM Toolbox Pro but cant use any of the features because im on kernel 3.0.8-925100. The main features I'm trying to use are change wifi logo, battery icon and a few other tweaks ROM Toolbox offers. I want to stay stock as possible because I really like the stock rom so I guess my real question is can I flash a new kernel and stay stock and if so whats a good one that will let me use all ROM Toolbox features?

Awesome, can anyone else confirm this? By flashing this will I still be pretty much stock and then be able to use all features in ROM Toolbox like changing my wifi icon my battery logo and someone?

And now I swear this is my last question about flashing anything. Regardless if I done this flash correctly or wrong if I decide to go back to stock how would I do it. I did a google search and found something called fix boot, but that flashed me to something completely different and broke my wifi. I ended up flashing back to what you see in the picture to get my wifi back and now I just don't know how to go back to stock if I decide to.

Im assuming you made a backup before flashing the kernal if so just flash that and you will be back to square one. If not the head over to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746682 and you shoulx find everything you neex to get you back to stock.

[Q] Problem with Custom Rom

Hi so this is my first thread. So I recently routed my gs3 with no problem, and I have CWM recovery v6. I tried to use the euroskank cm10 mod from the ROM manager app. Everything ran okay, but the one problem I'm having is the android keyboard stops working. I couldnt set anything up,so I had to restore to the stock ROM. Can anyone help me fix this? Thank you. Also, just to kill to birds with one stone, what is the best modem for the sprint gs3? Thanks a bunch!

Might just be a problem with the rom, did you read the bugs? Or did you clear all data before flashing?

That just sounds like a bug in the rom

Suppose so, a friend of mine can use the ROM with his GS3, but he has ATT. Maybe that's why his works

Wait, is the ROM in question even meant for the Sprint GS3? If not that could be a huge problem. Never ever flash a ROM from another carrier.

The ROM manager app gives me a selection of phones to flash CWM recovery with, and I chose the sprint GS3.

If your friend is running it on ATT, I would a assume that you're running 2 different ports of the same ROM. In that case each can have their own bugs and quarks.

And mine apparently won't let me use a keyboard, which makes it pointless anyway. So I should just find another rom specific to the sprint GS3. Know of any that I should look into?

[App]Google Wallet Installer

Google Wallet Installer for Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, and US Cellular Samsung Galaxy S3.
Requires ROOT, an UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER, and BUSYBOX!(A deodexed ROM is just recommended)
My newest project, RemoteFlash, was just released! Take a look and give it a try!
Wallet Installer Is Now Available For Free To All Supported Carrier Models On XDA! (Donations Appreciated)
My application, "Wallet Installer", will install Google Wallet on almost any US based Samsung Galaxy S3. It simply edits your build.prop and then places the correct modifications into your system. It downloads all the files from my personal server, which is pretty quick. Just select the appropriate Rom type: AOSP, JB Touchwiz, or ICS TouchWiz, and then your carrier: Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, or US Cellular. I also added a restore option for your build.prop, so you can restore it after you setup Google Wallet. Hopefully this helps you out and makes the process easier!
Wallet Installer has been updated on the server side. The credit goes to Paul Obrien for the new version! To install it, simply reset Google Wallet, delete it, and then rerun Wallet Installer! Make sure to also have BusyBox installed/updated!
Please donate if my work helps you : )
V3: No Recovery/More Stable
Original Thread: Here
And as always: I take no responsibility for bricked devices, whether a soft brick or a full on brand new coffee coaster.​

It does re-write your recovery, but it appears to have worked perfectly. The install part was actually pretty seamless. But I would suggest some clarification on the play store about everything with the recovery. Well worth $2. Thanks.

What if you already have a recovery, say CWM? Does it still flash a new recovery over the old one?

It does. Backing up the current recovery is a very possible future update though. I just got the other carriers supported, so that wasn't my main concern at the time. You can simply flash back over it with whatever recovery you prefer.

Forgive my ignorance, but once you root your GS3, doesn't that automatically unlock your bootloader? If not, then how do you unlock it on a Tmous Gs3?

I use a Verizon S3, so I don't know the specifics of your methods to root/unlock. The VZW S3 had a locked bootloader at first, but the dev community managed to unlock it. You'll have to ask around your device forums for an answer.

Just a note on this app. Google Play now recognizes my phone as a Galaxy Nexus. May not be a huge deal, but things like TeamViewer quick support won't work because the build.prop is telling it I have a nexus.

That's the point of the restore build.prop option. As long as you have your cards already setup in wallet, you can restore it and your device will be registered as an S3, and Wallet will still work.

Hi I'm about to buy this app and use it to install wallets. I understand that it will flash a new recovery an that I can just flash my old one back. I also understand that I need to restore my build prop afterwards. My question is that once I hopefully get this working what if I wanted to flash another mod or rom? Could I still do that? I remember reading about the secure element breaking and not being able to?

Yup! You can still flash other mods. I would just not recommend flashing another wallet mod on top of the wallet my app installed. Also, before flashing a ROM, reset Google Wallet.

Thank you. I read, and understand, everything you posted/wrote. One question: Does this include the stock radio, or is it just the stock ROM and kernel?
EDIT - Got another question. I don't want to assume, so I'd rather ask. Since all that you did was root it I take it that you didn't deodex it, so it's all stock odexed?

Its deodexed. Thats why rom devs and cooks or users can use this to modify it into custom ROM.
Use root explorer tool and take a peek or 7zip. Or double click the zip file in linux ubuntu etc.

Rushing, I flashed the IQ removed version, and know I want the ripple effect one (wife's phone, so I don't want to reflash cause I already updated all apps etc. etc)
If I want to change it, should I download the ROM with the ripple effect, and make a flashable for only the framework-res.apk, or there is something else I should do.
If you have the flash.zip for that mod (that includes the tethering IQ and ripple)
Thanks!!!
BDW, the ROM is working great. I installed others first but those still need some time to iron the mods they are getting into it, so I would rather stay in the safe side for now, until the others ROMs mature a bit.

Cool its always good to have a stock phone. then upgrade so you actually know/see what's upgraded

As for my rom i'm still on stock TouchWiz although i do have Agat's Recovery installed. I'm looking around and trying to compare which ROM to flash, and so far i'm leaning towards ReVolt, or i might try and give the official CM 10.1 nightlies a go

I tried that one a few months ago and had GPS issues.
So far for me the most reliable custom ROM has been Dastin's WFTN and the official CM10.1 releases, though YMMV.
Even then I wound up flashing back to stock TouchWiz because of data speeds being faster on TouchWiz/GB28 than on any CM10/ICS or Gingerbread modem I tried.
Plus there were graphics corruption issues with GPS Test+ on every custom ROM I tried.
I seem to recall reading somewhere that it has to do with Mali driver issues, but I'm really not certain why.
As far as Virgin Mobile goes, I've been with them for 4 years come January and I'm not going to make it 5.
Locally, Sprint's network is crap and now that I have a real smartphone instead of a glorified music player like the Intercept, the connection problems are too glaring to overlook.
Come next January I'll probably have a used E4GT for sale cheap. :laugh:

I'm using the EG30 modem with Dirty Unicorns and my data speeds are a little better then when I was on GB28.

The speeds that I get from speedtest on non-JB modems are very close to the GB28 modem, but not quite as fast under ideal conditions.
This part I understand as the EvDO version connected to under 'About Phone>Status. is A:6 on all of the non-JB modems while it says A:7 or A:8 on GB28.
I could live with that, but the other speed issue is that no matter which modem I've tried, I get a pause during testing speeds about a quarter of the way through the DL test that looks like Mount Everest on the DL graph.
I have no idea if it's something unique to my phone, a glitch in CM, or something to do with Sprint's ****ty local network buildout, but it's easily reproducible on several different custom ROM/modem combinations.
But as I said in my first post, Your Mileage May Vary™.

The first post in a ROM's thread is called the Original Post, or OP. Every rom OP has detailed instructions on how to install, or flash that particular ROM.
