GS3 on cm10?

[InkedAdrenaline]

I see some you tube vids of GS3 with cm10, so can we run this? I know vz has the locked boot loader but I thought sprint had the same and the you tube vid is for a sprint gs3...

Sprint's bootloader is unlockable. Verizon is the only US carrier that had their bootloader locked down with the exception of the dev model from Verizon.

Actually you CAN run CM10 on the GS3. The devs have done a lot of work and found ways around the boot loader. There is a version of CM9 and CM10 out right now. Here you go:

You're welcome. There are couple of minor bugs, but overall it is surprisingly smooth for a first release

Ya my mms worked for a little bit but now doesn't work. And my signal goes up and down but I still make calls with ease with no bars so I don't know if my signal is actually bad or its just a bug n the indicator

Now I have a decision stick with this butter smooth software or go to the cm9 fully functional software and hope it's pretty smooth on the gs3

I have been using the CM 10 for about a day and I am loving it. I dont care for the contacts, its lacking. I prefer the ICS stock contacts but I should be able to find an add on. I get better coverage so far as well, much stronger signal.

Have you guys had problems losing your phone numbers programming?

Under settings my number and min shows as unknown and then I'm unable to send MMS but data seems to work on and off.

It started working and then out of nowhere was lost. I wiped through CM (not recovery) and I got it back. just kinda wondering if I'll continue to have the same issues or if that was a fluke

Data for me came and left. The and signal was horrible
But it will be awesome as soon as our bootloader gets unlocked

Wouldn't hold my breath on that as Verizon won't be unlocking it. And at this point, an unlocked bootloader is pretty much negligible as it really isn't holding us back as we have kexec for custom kernels. Only real impact it might have would possibly be increased developer support.

As for CM10, 4G data was pretty solid for me on the 7/23 build. I ended up going back to a touchwiz rom due to the quirky volume adjustment and lack of nfc support for google wallet. Camera and mms could be a little wonky but pretty much everything else was perfectly stable.

I must have had an outdated release. My experience for cm10 was battery life decreased BIG TIME, mms didn't work, signal went for 3-4 bars to 0-1, I didn't see it connect to 4G at all, when I clicked you tube vids phone would crash.

The good was launcher wise it was silky smooth. Just to many other bugs for me to deal with. Now I'm on beans custom stripped stock rom

Im running the most recent version of CM10 and its silky smooth. The only problem I have is MMS doesnt send.

Make sure to wipe /system/ before you load this rom, I dont think its baked in.

That's cool. I don't think I'm running cm10 until mms and signal work flawless. I settled into a setup I'm loving beans custom rom build 5 and jelly bomb.7.2
