thx in advance!

Well all I can say is its your fault. Posting in the right section always helps too, its against the rules to post anything undev related in development. You should have read all the guides before flashing your phone. Posts like these pop up everyday, what's so hard about reading. To get back into download mode you'll have to make a jig, there's no other way.

It's a crying shame that people don't read the warnings plasted all over these forums
Make sure you have working 3 button download/recovery before flashing anything

i have ... the 3 button working friend and the darky rom was working by the way so i had read all that... don t judge me because it s not my first rom that i have flashed... i have also a HTC DHD and i downgraded and s off and many other things without eny problems ... but this.. i don t know how...
by the way i ve managed to go in the CWM recovery... eny sugestions?
i also tried again to restore the backup but with the same result...

thread can be closed thx

Help me with my phone i am idiot :P

hello all i bought my G3 like 1-2 month ago and i need some help
i look at this forum but i don't understand anything
1.what do i get if i upgrade a custom ROM???
2.can i overclock my G3 to 800 MHZ(i want to play angry birds and ninja jump and other games without lag),if i can how can i install kernel and what is kernel?
3.what will flashing my phone do to G3
4. i done vol down+home+power button but nothing happens i go to silent task manager opens
5. pls don't flame this thread i just need help
Thanks to all that help i really need it

1. Every Rom is different... Read the topics and you will see what you get...
2. Yes you can OC your Phone but if you are a noob I wouldn't recommend. But if you are willing to take some chances! There are a few ROMS they are made for Overclocking.
3. It will do nothing with your 3G. It will maybe make it a little stronger or faster but it wouldn't do much if I'm wright.
4. You need to shut down your phone first and then do that combo... If your phone is on it doesn't work!

Actually number 3 is wrong!
In POX i introduced a tweak that makes 3g go maximum speed

hi
Dear their is no easy way to learn u need to read
ur not an idiot ur just a little lazy
start here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858583
everything u need is their then start asking the questions u will positively get help
as one of my bosses said its not rocket science u just need to read & understand and then ask the questions

ok so i found good rom kyrillos http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=957123
but if i want to install i need to know how to use this :
You must know how to use odin!
Recommended firmware before flash: Any
Optional make a backup of your data (with Titanium).
Go in download mode (Vol down + Home + Power or from the power menu).
Open Odin, click reset files, select ops, tick one package and select the "Flash_this_as_one-package.tar" file.
Click Start. The phone will reboot in recovery. WIPE DATA! (The wipe process may take a minute+, dont worry. The boot process may be long too, but dont worry its normal!!)
Optional, Partition your sd!
-Make a backup of your sdcard, enter CWM recovery and go to advanced => partition sd. Choose the sizes you want. After the partition completes, wipe data and reboot
Install titanium and go to titanium backup's preferences and select the default install location => internal. Then do your restore...
Enjoy!
how can i do that
i turned it off and press vol down+power off + home and it say downloading do not turn off target!!! what to do???

Well, his tutorial is really nub friendly, so you just need to read what is written there. You need to install drivers for your mobile phone. I did it through official Samsung web page ( please look around cos I'm not able right now to look for you ). Install all these drivers. Connect phone via usb cable included in package, open ODIN, do what is written in tutorial and you are done in 15 minutes with all this. Its really easy, but you just have to read around and not skip any of steps written in any of tutorial here.
I'm also new user of SG3, to be more specific its my first smartphone, I have it for 1 week or so, but I have read almost all topics written here, and I did all this stuff without one single problem.

i don't see anywhere how to use Odin how to install custom kernel or how to overclock so it doesn't help -.-
i don't understand this Flash with Odin as "One package" option.

Read all topic and all links included here. Its very best topic to start from. Please don't annoy people with same questions again, cos I'm sure if you read all of this, you will learn it all.

ROOT SIII JB 4.1.2-Easy Way

Download the PDA file by CF: Over here
Download and install Drivers : Over Here !
Get ODIN: Over Here...
The process is meant for Galaxy S3 I9300
Enable USB debubugging and give it a good charge (though it doesnt really make an effect if off)
_First Power off device.
_after it's off, press and hold: vol.down-home-power
_then press volume up to continue
_then connect your phone to your computer via USB
_Open ODIN as Administrator
(If the phone is connected properly, one of the ID:COM boxes will turn yellow with the COM port numbe)
_Click the PDA tab in Odin and select the CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4.tar.
_In ODIN, check the Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time options. DO NOT TOUCH ANY OTHER OPTION!
_Click on the Start button in ODIN and it will start the installation process.
_Once the installation is done, the phone will restart, you can unplug the phone from the computer.
*And you should be good to go... with CWM too !
EnjoY Your rooted JB 4.1.2 SIII
Tested and verified to be working
if it doesn't work, you need to re-flash with auto reboot unchecked, then boot recovery to trigger installation
NOTE: I CANNOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY IN CASE YOU DO SOMETHING WRONG OR SOMETHING HAPPENS FOR UNKNOW REASON OR ANYTHING !
Press Thanks if i helped !

Eureka!

Hahaha lol, dude are you serious ?
You can remove the cable as soon as Odin says Done/Reset. USB debugging is not a must. ....

You should also add that if it doesn't work, you need to re-flash with auto reboot unchecked, then boot recovery to trigger installation......but then if you did that this post would be identical almost to chainfires, hence making this post fairly redundant

it will work...anyways will add it... and this is a summary of his journals thanks

You should maybe add that KIES is turned off or even uninstalled. Otherwise odin will habe problems.
Anyway I guess anyone appreciates your effort but I also don't get the point of this thread as it is already included in the basic guides, in chainfires threads and who else knows where. But anyway thanks.

Playing with words doesn't change a fact that in your guide is small error as there's no need to enable USB debugging in order to use Odin.

yes, if you posses any logic, then all the things in the instruction have some effect on the outcome.

1. this had been posted before.
2. you haven't removed usb debugging from the guide

Ok, let's stop with the trolling. If you think something is wrong with the guide, post it and move along. If it is something that will brick someone's device, report it and a moderator will address it. Thanks for your cooperation.

maybe it's a stupid question, but after root my device with your method, is it safe to wipe with the recovery and install a custom rom??? thanks

Its your last resort

isnt There a way ? To Just Install Rom ? I can still acess CWM And If Someone Can tell me A Appropriate Rom File .zip for my Cellphone Ill download it , Add it in Sd card and Then Use CWM To Install that rom ? Its quite Possible ? Please ? Anyone ? help ?

you can't use download mode but you can still enter recovery? that's pretty weird... are you sure you're trying correctly? are the drivers properly installed and stuff? if it still doesn't work, then go to this section of the forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9500-develop there you will find plenty of roms you can flash with CWM recovery

Hi mate,
Lets go step by step.....
If you can get into recovery you can get into download...
1. Press and hold Volume Down, Home and Power buttons at the same time.
2. Release the buttons when you get the warning message.
3. Now press Volume Up button to confirm.
after you are in download mode lets flash a stock rom back in you can follow this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265477
or go to sammobile and get the latest one from your country
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
same one you had or newer ,
Another option would be ....
Take external sd out of your phone and use any posible adapter or device so you can use you pc to place a custom rom in....now place it back in your phone and from cwm instal the custom rom...

Stop panicing. This is basic rom flashing.
Just flash a custom rom from within cwm.
