Dualboot? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

So why is it every other s3 lines has a dualboot but we dont? Is it just lack of someone willing to make one or is it impossible?
Sorry, i have wondered this for awhile. We have a multi boot but i dont need 100 roms or more then 2 really.

Why not just use multi boot for the two you want?

Multiboot is equivalent dude
You can even leave a script in the multiboot folder that pushes you to recovery to allow you to choose which ROM to boot in the first place or just hold two more buttons when powering on anyway.
You can also just boot your second ROM whenever and reboot to get back to the first one.

Multi boot is fine an all but it would be easy if it was just a dual boot so its not doing 10 things to substatue doing 2 or 3..
But looks like there isnt going to be a way.

You could ask the dev. Maybe itd be a simple tweak to something to do what you want, im not sure though.

Smooth and the battery life exceptional I have found that doing certain things I would do on other aosp and aokp based roms give me black screens then I have to re boot
like changing dpi and messing with tweeks in rom tool box.
Other than that this rom is refreshing
Thnak you

JC is probably the go to man with this question, but I know the KERNAL must have init.d support for it to "take".

I'm assuming from reading the original post, it says it has Kobridge's init.d scripts baked in, so the KERNAL included in the ROM must already have that ability for those to work...
Anyone feel free to correct me.

Confirmed odexme apk does not work...starts to load after granting SU permission, does not auto-reboot....once you reboot yourself, phone doesnt even get to boot animation.

I'm sure this probably isn't your first time using odex me, but just in case, I remember it seems to take forever to complete. Like hit ok on reboot and odex.. Go make a sandwich (preferable a deluxe), come back to the phone and (depending on how many apps you have installed) eat the sandwich and you might get done eating before it's done... Forever,

Yeah I've used it several other times and it does take forever, but usually during reboots (thought I bricked on my first use). This time it just hung on the app screen saying it was going to reboot and I hadn't loaded any apps yet.
Made a sandwich during my nand reload though lol

Lol.. Good one.
I have had that happen to me one time as well. It turned out that the KERNAL I was trying to use it with didn't have init.d support. I'm not saying that is the case here, but generally (unless you're odex me app goes bad sitting on your SD card waiting for its next use) I don't believe the app is ROM specific. Build maybe(FE07/FE10 etc...)? I don't know.

I'm sure its build specific at this point, the ROM is still quick as hell without it though.

flashed this earlier today from the stock unlocked plus kernel (coming from agat63's tfe10 rom), and upon rebooting i got an error stating lbe privacy guard couldn't start because it didn't have root access. then i tried loading up rom toolbox, and it too was borked.
so i went ahead and wiped data/cache and re-flashed the rom, but still i had no root. i wiped data again and flashed back to tfe10 and i was back in business.
bad download or rom not compatible with flashing from fe10 unlocked recovery?

If someone could get this that would be excellent!

Hey, Kevin. Thanks for the boot anis. I tried installing the Mario 64 ani using the V5 Aroma installer but had no luck. From looking through the thread it seems like you're aware there may be an issue with the script so I'll try again with the next iteration. Thanks!

[Q] Remove Odin Mode?

I was wondering if it's at all possible to remove Odin Mode from my phone. I've been researching a good bit and haven't found anything. I've also searched here and other forums for anything related and haven't found anything, either.

Yes flash a ROM meant for another device. That will remove Odin mode and everything else. You will have the shiniest brick available. But it won't have Odin mode!

Good advice. But you forgot to mention the need for a complete wipe prior to flashing. Let's do things properly.

Coming from a device that utilized fastboot, I too wished this were possible. However, its never going to happen
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
I came from a device that utilized fastboot as well and I was used to it so I understand where you are coming from. Unfortunately, there's nothing you can do about it.
I had a device with fast boot and I have no idea where he is coming from. Removing download mode won't do anything to benefit performance. You can't add fast boot to a Samsung device..at least that i am aware of. Download mode is just the way things are done in these parts. Removing it would only remove a potential lifeline when things get scary with soft brick. It would also remove the ability to root. If you want fast boot back, you will have to go back to a device that utilizes it.

I guess I worded it wrong. Before I even flashed a ROM, my phone didn't say Odin Mode at the very top of the download mode screen. I forget what it said, honestly, but I'm asking if it's possible to restore my phone to it's original state before I used Odin to root and mod it.

So you want to go back to full stock with no root.

Hmm, I just have an old personal custom kernel/rom on my old phone, I no longer use/hack it. It's totally useless, but I just want to keep my visual change forever (print my name at the boot, and some random other useless thing like that, it's juste for fun, somes little patch I make when I discovered the kernel), It is also to learn something new about the sbl-download mode, because I don't really know how it works, and I haven't found any documentations about this.
tl:dr : for fun, discover something new.
Thanks for any idea, or tips.
There is no way to remove download/Odin mode. To attempt to do this is absolutely retarded. I am now reporting this thread to stop the insanity. Do Not private message me again about this subject either.
Thread closed
There is no way, nor is there any need, to 'remove Odin Mode'.

[Q] You can help me see this in the end is how?

I am a user from China,Brushed rom lock screen disappears, the standby interface yellow text, press and hold the power button is no longer prompted to shutdown or restart, will directly turn off the phone.
Just enter 1,5 dialing panel, the test mode will enter the following figure, say, 1.5 at the beginning of the number can not dial.
Road is not anyone who can help me solve this problem? THx!
You have to repartition the phone using a full stock tar. T3 prohect and I had this problem. He probabaly still has the file that you need to flash in odin.

I suggest u two things to do :
1,choose a right and stable rom for your Note.
2,run a super wipe before you flash a new rom.
3,if you are a fresh man here ,why not try miui first, the instruction is written in Chinese at list,

[Q] Nexus 4 boot animation

This will most likely seem like a noob question, but I can't just take the bootanimation.zip from a nexus 4 and manually install it on my phone, correct? I'd love to have the nexus 4 boot ani on my phone but can't find one specific to the S3.
Thanks in advance,
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
Well I'm pretty sure the process is the same. I would try it out myself since changing the boot animation incorrectly can't mess up your phone, but I havent gotten my S3 yet
But anyway, use the instructions from here to setup your new bootanimation (replacing his bootanimation.zip with the nexus 4 bootanimation.zip of course) and see if it works. Theoretically it should, because the bootanimation.zip is just a bunch of pictures essentially
Also, could you give the link to that bootanimation? I've been looking for a nice one for a bit Thanks in advance OP :good:
Sent from my PG06100
I don't think it will work because although the s3 has a boot animation.zip that's not how the s3 plays the boot loader it uses a different format its just there because its the way android is built plus there should be some size differences the s3 has a slightly bigger screen which should have some affect on it but hey I may be wrong but all I know is s3 uses a different boot animation format

Screen size has nothing to do with it all that matters is resolution and file size needs to be within limits to be played.
OP as long as the resolution is correct you can use the custom animation method for the s3 to install it.

As requested. I pushed to /system/media and fixed permissions. Can't promise your phone will be the exact same.
Also, I upped the Google splash screen from the Nexus phones, you'll still have the Samsung logo boot first. Use this thread to create a flashable zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928751
My phone currently boots in this order:
Samsung Logo
Google Splash Screen
Nexus 4 Boot Animation
ROM
I assume no responsibility if anything happens to your phone. I didn't create any of this, so i'm not taking credit.
