Okay, awesome. So I would perform the necessary cleaning techniques (wipe cache, factory reset, dalvik cache), and then install the ROM as normal? I guess what I'm asking is, is would that also wipe the emulated partition? (ie, under /storage/sdcard0) Since Titanium Backup places the backup...

Thanks for all the responses everyone. It has helped tremendously. Although, I may end up installing another ROM anyway, because there's some features missing that I'd like to see on my tablet. (Such as being able to hide the nav bar, and replace it with pie controls. And a battery percentage on...

Sorry if this question is stupid, but this is my first Nexus device and I just have a simple question... If rooted and unlocked as seen here, will I still be able to receive OTA updates from Google when they come out? Or does this install a custom ROM? Thanks for any clarification you can...

The quickest (and easiest way in my opinion) and safest way is to use Titanium Backup to 'Freeze' apps. You will need the pro version of this app if you already don't have it. Basically what this does, is makes them invisible to the system to where they don't run, and they will not be available...

Are you talking about the internal storage in your phone? Or are you talking about an External SD Card? If you're referring to an External SD Card, I would turn your phone off, remove the card, using a card reader, take any files you need off of it (and put them on your computer for the time...

Yeah of course... I actually used it on mine to see whether or not it would work.

If I remember correctly, I believe this app uses a script in order to accomplish this. Once you hit the button to switch the SD cards, it will be done. However, when you restart your phone, it will be back to it's non-swapped state. (ie, normal) There is an option to apply this option on boot to...

Now to answer each question individually... Yes! This will allow you to come back to the stock ROM should you have any issues with new ROMs or mods. (There are many options out there, I suggest you check our XDA Developers for more options!) Well, there's no need to flash a Nandroid backup...

You're essentially on the right track here... Think of a Nandroid backup as a complete backup of your phone in its current state. One of the best things you can do, is backup before installing any kind of modifications and/or new ROMs. Also, creating backups in regular intervals is never a bad...

Re: Switch Internal for External Storage? Guide has been posted! Mods, feel free to edit if need be

Re: Switch Internal for External Storage? And if needed, I can make a write up where it isn't archaic as crap... Lol I do not mind.

Re: Switch Internal for External Storage? * Deleted post due to guide in first post *

Intro: If you?re like me, you?ve come from the ThunderBolt or a similar phone where most of what you save/did was saved on the ACTUAL external SD card, and not the phone emulated SD card. This will show you how to trick our phones to where the external SD card and the internal ?SD card?, are...

Just for anyone that had the same issues (and is somewhat a noob like I am...) -You MUST have the bootloader unlocked before you can flash Clockwork Mod Recovery (I did not know this) -If you get into the same issue that I had, then you have to revert everything back to stock before rooting...

Nevermind I found the following two things and will be giving them a try! http://www.droidforums.net/forum/galaxy-s3-general-discussion/226888-system-software-not-authorized-verizon-wireless.html just installed latest cm nightly from rom manager - xda-developers
