[SGSIII][Sprint] Android Central Rom and Kernel Library

If you don't get notified of the update, you can go to his thread but his servers are swamped at this very instant. I will be supporting him by providing him a mirror download site as soon and I can get it updoaded. I will post it here as well. It looks like the upload will take around 45 minutes to complete.

I will have a link in this post as soon as the mirror is up.

Happy Flashing....

Words can't explain how much of a help give been to me Skunk. You're the man. Can't get to my computer until tomorrow. But when I do I will probably be asking you a gazillion questions about what to wipe and such as I download the rom.

Thanks again.

No problem at all. It's the least that I can do. Seeing as I was the one needing all the help only a year ago.

Link is up in my previous post...

Okay so I can get to my computer now. Do it the same way I installed v8.1? Except this time do a wipe and factory reset?

Then restore my back up from after I rooted my phone originally?

Then restore everything from titanium? And I should be back to where I started in terms of everything in my phone?

Sorry for flooding the thread the past week also Lol. Xda has to much going on. at first I couldn't make an account over sprints internet. Now I can't post anything in the development forums because I'm not experienced enough. I've been stalking it every day though. Unfortunately no one over there is time enough to ask the basic questions like me. So I'm here. Thanks for your patience.

If you want to restore a backup you don't need to wipe anything. Go to backup and restore. Click on restore, choose the backup you want to restore and go for it. Don't wipe a thing.

**Tkbredx** · 08-06-2012, 08:09 PM

So theres no need to wipe anything from 8.0 to 8.1? I have a couple ui tweaks and a theme installed (although I would like to remove the theme so I can download jelly bomb when it gets here)

Ok.... I thought you wanted to restore a backup. We'll make this easy.

Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik.
Flash rom

You should be good. If you want to be extra careful you can wipe system.
You don't need to do a data factory reset.

Never do the format data with twrp.

New rom added. Paranoid Hybrid....

**Tkbredx** · 08-08-2012, 09:00 AM

Clark is really on the move v9 should be out soon. Same question... what kind of wipe do I need to flash it?

And this aroma installer everyone keeps talking about.. only for people with cwm right? I'm using twrp. They keep discussing themes in the aroma installer. Are these the same as the themes that will be in the update me app?

The theme in aroma installer are just that aroma themes. It just changes the background color of the installer it does nothing to the Rom.

Twrp is exactly what you want as it supports open recovery and cwm doesn't.

I would just wipe cache, dalvik and system. If you have any issues you can go back and wipe/factory reset. Again never format data with twrp as it will format your entire internal sdcard and you will lose everything there.

Nothing is wrong with it. It's just a stock version of touchwiz on steroids.

Lol this thread has basically become "Rom and kernel library/FreeGS3 support and updates"
I'm not complaining though, it's a great ROM

Not for long... There's a new rom I'm testing right now. It is pre themed and it's smooth. Not all the custom tweaks yet but it is very well themed.

There is a fairly good chance I will host it here on Android Central and moderate the thread.

Twrp stands for team win recovery project. It is nothing more than a custom recovery much like cwm. They both flash Roms, make backups, restores and wipes.

They pretty much do the same thing but each has something the other doesn't. Try them both and see which one works best for you.

**Skunkape60** · 08-12-2012, 11:45 AM

A new Rom being released today but you won't have to go to xda to get it. I will be hosting the thread right here at Android Central. It does not have all the bells and whistles that the Team Sonic Rom has. But it is a very stable themed Rom.

So if what you want, is a themed Rom that just plain works without any trouble, you should give "Wicked Sensations" a try. The thread should be posted later today in the "Sprint Galaxy S3 Rooting, ROMs and Hacks" forum.

**brackett5** · 08-12-2012, 11:47 AM

Just got to ask...does of have Google now??

The beta version doesn't but the release version should have an inverted google now.

Yes the release version has it. Its my first time inverting an app on my own, so let me know if anything needs adjusted on it. Thanks for all of the help and support Skunkape60.

**Skunkape60** · 08-12-2012, 11:16 PM

Wicked Sensations has been added to Rom & Kernel Library.

Edit 2: The Blazer ROM also now has embedded WiFi tether.

I didn't notice the wifi tether embedded with the Blazer ROM. I downloaded the app separately. Am I missing something in the settings where I wouldn't need the app?

Also, am I fine running the stock kernel with this or should I look into getting something else?

Stock kernel is really about the only choices you have. I think there is tethering toggle in the notification bar. Not sure on the blazer Rom. As i won't run it.
