Hey everyone,
I'm new here, with a newly acquired GS3 after my last one got ran over by a truck... Not REALLY smart when it comes to doing backdoor stuff to android, but I'm trying my best.
so I'm having some major issues attempting to root my verizon GS3. I downloaded the samsung drivers, Odin, and an md5 file. I also flashed a bootchain file. I'm thinking I read a really bad step-by-step, because I was told it was an easy process. Now, I think my profile is corrupted or something, because when the phone boots, I get the Samsung logo with the word "Custom" and an unlocked lock on it, but when the OS starts, all my programs start crashing repeatedly, over and over. Email, Touchwiz, Badgeprovider, and a bunch of android.data.xxx.. just keeps coming up until I just have the background wallpaper, with no icons and nonresponsive buttons... the notification bar will still drop down, but all the options in it are nonresponsive as well.
I entered download mode, and my flash count is 1, with a custom binary setting and whatnot. I need to know what I need to do to finish the root, or at return the phone to working order. I am SOMETIMES able to get into the settings menu, but I'm not really able to do much. i can still get into recovery and download mode. Will reinstalling a stock rom fix my problem? I've tried several different places for some roms, but every time I get the same issue. Will going into recovery mode, doing a wipe, and reinstalling a stock rom work?
sorry for the trouble guys, and thank you in advance!
