how do i root and flash cm10 rom ?

Hello. i came from a Tmobile G2, i knew how to root and flash and all that jazz, but then i got the Galaxy s3, and i kept hearing about bricking your phone, losing your imei, tripping flash counter and stuff. Can someone tell me how how to root the galaxy s3 and install the cm10 rom without bricking, losing imei, and tripping flash counter ? thanks.

thank me if I helped

There's a couple of how to root threads in the development section. Flashing is the same process as your gs2.
As far as the imei issue goes , it seems random. The best advice I can give you is to make sure you flash a stock based ROM first that includes busy box , and backup your imei with one of the tutorials as well.
Good luck !

hmm.. so first i should do
1) SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 QCOM TOOLKIT V2.3 to get rooted and flash cmw recovery, do full nandroid backup or just download stock restore rom
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746682,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1727120
2) then use the IMEI backup & restore by geeks to backup IMEI, - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804123
3) then flash CM10 Rom - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1778217
4) then use triangle away to reset flash counter ?
OR
1) use odin stock rom w/ injected root + cmw rocvery
2) use tookit to nandroid backup
3) backup imei with tool

alright nvm. got it rooted and flashed cmw. just need to know how to flash a kernal like trinity's. idk if its the same for this phone, but do i just name the kernal file pcimg10.zip and put it in the root of sd and go into cwm recovery ?

root done
i have rooted my phone. thanks

Is this the righ floor? Need help with... Factory Mode?

Not sure if im experiencing a factory mouse issue or not. No pics in the threads.
Issue: System info window keeps popping up in menu.(check img)
Occured: After flashing a stock Att md5 from liquid smooth ROM
Attempts:
-Reflashed several stock variations of the md5 through odin.
-installed terminal emulator and tried the typical "factory mode" that is pointed to Verizon users. Entering "echo -No...."
-Initiated self doubt then banged head on wall.
-ReReReFlashed stock ATT with injected root (downloaded from XDA thread)
Interesting points: All my roms and stock md5's have been downloaded from XDA. Im 100% sure im using the correct version. I noticed in attempting to finally sign up for XDA I was initially blocked from doing so because "in attempts to block spam, Verizon IPs are blocked" That's Weird because I'm an ATT user and was on my 4g network.

When you have flashed stock through odin or the root injected stock ROM, have you done a factory reset, cleared data, returned it to a completely out of the box state ?
Where did you get the phone ? Is it new or did you buy it second hand ?
I've seen others with this and they can use the phone but the lockscreen is gone and the ppower button menu is gone as well. Is the imei corrupted ?

1. Download full ROM, verify MD5 checksum and copy to phone SD storage. And download GApps and do the same. Also download the FL24 Modem as you will need that as well.
2. Download and copy Jellybean X2 Format utility to SD storage: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2077277
3. Install EL29 Directboot kernel. It can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1662295
( Look for: GB - Direct Boot CWM )
Note: .tar file is for flashing with Mobile Odin, .zip is for flashing in recovery (you probably don't have one), and .exe file is for flashing with Odin on PC.
4. Reboot into recovery, flash JB X2 Format then the ROM. You may flash the modem at this point if you like (required to run CM), but no other mods until ROM has fully booted the first time.
***Note- EL29 cannot flash modems- however, you can always flash it after the ROM boots with the built-in recovery***
5. Let ROM boot fully and settle for a couple of minutes during the initial boot. (It will take around 10 minutes)

Is your IMEI away currently? Was it away after flashing this file?

No, i still have IMEI, but i want to ask that can i repair both of IMEI & Baseband via your zip file IF i lost imei and baseband???

NO - if the IMEI is away then it could be that your Phone will be unuseable! In some cases you can bring it back with flashing the correct FW...
But this is another topic and to long to explain everthing....
Therefore I recommend to save the 3 most important partitions of your ACE2 - which are EFS, ModemFS and especially CSPSA (in this is the IMEI encrypted)
The MOST IMPOERTANT thread about this topic is this by @Szaby59:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145464
At the end of his thread there are files for automated saving of this 3 partitions... But be carefull what you do and the most important is:
Read and understand it

can't download the link file?
Please open the link again of the zip file experts..same problem here my baseband and imei is uknown. please activate the cure file. thanks

Flashed stock rom via ODIN and now my phone thinks it is 32 GB

TLDR; Soft bricked phone trying to install TWRP, flashed stock rom on it, now phone says its 32 GB when its really 256 GB.
Hi all,
So I got a brand new Note 10+ a couple weeks ago and tried to flash TWRP onto it thinking it was easy like it used to be. Boy i was wrong. Stupid iphone user mistake.
So, I googled how to fix the soft brick. Downloaded the most recent firmware and flashed it via ODIN.
I flashed the following
BL
AP
CP
CSC (not HOME_CSC)
I setup my phone and personalised it like i had before and just now got a notification saying my phone is almost out of storage.
So i click the notification naturally being like what the hell already?
And long and behold my phone is now 32 GB instead of 256 GB.
I googled ways to fix this but all the ways say to flash the regular CSC which i already did!
Can anyone help me?
I've provided screenshots of the DF command and the storage settings.

This could happen if you have flashed standalone AP file without CSC file same time.
Stock AP file must be flash with BL CP and Home_CSC at same time unless it may shrink your data.

Thank you for your response, however i flashed the AP file at the same time as everything else.
If i was to flash the AP file including everything else but change out the CSC file for the CSC_HOME will i keep my data on my phone because it was a pain to set it all back up.

No...

Is there a way to keep my data or no?

If you use HOME_CSC_* it will not wipe data If you use CSC_* then it will wipe data. But looking to your device issue, probably you need to wipe it.
