Questions - Look Here First

So now that we have our own Q&A forums, you guys should:
1. Search to make sure your question hasn't been answered yet.
2. Do not ask me or any other mod to close a thread just because your question was answered. Only if you see an argument coming.
3. Make sure you are clear and use English.
4. Be sure to thank those who help you! They helped you, the least you could do is give a simple thanks!
5. Be respectful to others, don't call someone noob, stupid, or any use any profane language just because of their question, just remember you were once there too!

Much needed
hi good work by mod ..i came across highly profane words used like noob etc..so please be good & treated good...in galaxy y section there is a lot of questions to be answered so help us ...do updated roms.....

Many new users read this thread and forget the first point. SEARCH! But they don't. Instead of that, they create new threads in our Q&A section with questions that have been asked a million times.

request for Sticky thread about Backup and Restore
Hi
Can you make a sticky thread about a step by step guide to backup and restore the existing phone data and software(and everything else, so that anyone can comeback to present position anytime) before trying anything new.
I am a newbie and recently bricked one of my phones by trying a update(and still searching for proper firmware to restore it). I know that searching may yield some result but if there is a sticky thread, it will be helpful for people like me. I know there are stock roms available but nothing beats getting the good old phone back as it is with a feeling that nothing happened.
PS. I have installed CWM and tried the backup option there.However while backing up data it showed " failed to mount /data partition(backed up boot image and other things, but where I do not know(may be on SD card, but cannot find)). My phone is rooted and on original firmware (working perfectly). Samsung kies has a frequent crashing problem on winXP. So dared not use it.

If the backup was completed you can see a folder named
Clockworkmod.
You can find your nandroid backup inside backup..

It contains 3 files
recovery.img
boot.img
system.rfs.tar
It said during backup that could not mount /data. Will it affect in anyway during restoration? Will I get back my contacts, pictures and games? I like to try the jellybin firmware available here but also want to comeback to my present position if I do not like it. Is this backup sufficient for complete restoration or I have to do something else ?

I don't think that the backup will work..
Generally the backup has 4 files
Nandroid.md5
System.rfs.tar
Cache.rfs.tar
And
Data.rfs.tar
By the way if you want the stock roms nandroid backup (without data ie. Factory resetted) I can provide you the links..
Kernel is not included.
Hit thanks if I helped you.

Would there be a possibility of having a Jellyblast custiom ROM with Merruk kernel?
I am currently enjoying my Jelllyblast V3. I read that we could overclock the unit. The thing is I have read most posts here but I am having difficulty understanding it. Most instructions are to techinical for me. I am hoping that the next Jellyblast custom ROM will have an option of either having a Kuro or Merruk kernel. But if there is a much simpler way of installing Merruk, I would like to know.
Thanks!

Will it help to restore me to everything like a new one (except the data) purchased fresh from market? Then please provide the link. BTW, I am using CWM Ver 5.0.2.6. Are you sure that the above four files will be produced ? I have taken the back ups twice with same set of files available.The data partition could not be mounted in both the cases.

Hi guys, please search the Q&A forum to look forward an answer to your question, if there isn't one, create a new thread there. This thread is not the place to ask questions! Thanks!

my phone works fine unless I insert the memory card.then after a few minutes it freezes and reboots without powering off. Then it restarts, freezes and again shuts down.removing the card fixes it but then I can't use my apps songs and videos on my memory card. That card worked fine for almost a year (I didn't test it on some other Android device but it works on non Android devices)
My Recent Activity
a few days ago I decided to deodex my phone using a flashable I found somewhere...it all was working fine except for a few FCs and sometimes it froze but after some time it would get back to normal.then I installed a few apps like undelete and ROM toolbox pro.I changed the boot animation too. So once I was using opera mini web browser and my phone froze and turned off in the same way I mentioned earlier... I tried clearing dalvik cache and the cache partition in recovery mode but to no avail.I also removed a few apps I suspected may have been the cause but that too didn't work.
I hope the experts here help me out with the issue soon.

Tweaks for testing

Intro:
Hi all...
I got a bit tired of restoring all of my build.prop and init.d tweaks every time i flashed i rom so i made a handpicked collection of the tweaks i use.
Since this may be useful to others aswell i though i need some testers to confirm everything goes ok after this...
Can anyone help me?
When it's confirmed working i'll update this to a full thread with how to and everything. [done already because of low demand.]
By the way,can't test myself because i already have those enabled.
I just want to see if the cwm file installs correctly and sets values and permissions right.
Instructions
Flash through recovery and delete dalvik and cache.
Please do post back,I need feedback since this is the first flashable mod i created.
Also make a backup before installing,i don't know if this will work correctly on your S3.
Thanks!
Finally it is reccomended to use this to have full effect and eliminate redraws.
Fast.Simple.Working.
Just use the instructions and you're done.

P.S. Nothing of this is mine,i just made the package becaue i don't want to install them manually every single time.
All credits go to their owners.

Can you detail the changes you have made please?

There are severel mount tweaks,build.prop tweaks(with setprop command,it doesn't change your build.prop file,it just writes values inside it.),sqlite vacumming on boot and so goes on...

Did you do a data & cache wipe before flashing the ROM? If not, then the phone will brick. Find information on how to unbrick here, if you still do not understand, then post in the thread and people will help you.

You should reflash stock rom. Find the appropriate rom of doky's thread. Its a sticky so you can find it on top of the developement thread. Then flash it through odin in download mode.
