S3 Back working again!

So after trying to download the rom I needed to flash, all day at home, I went to Starbucks and used their wifi, with the same result. So I went to my brothers house, and finally got it downloaded.

It ate my whole day...

I used Odin to flash the rom, it took about 8 to 10 minutes and it was done.
I used the rom that wouldn't wipe anything, so to my surprise  after it booted, i was about to install clockworkmod and flash back to my backup, just like before trying to install cm10! FOR THE WIN!

I am currently copying the entire clockworkmod folder from my phone to the external micro sd card, just so I have a back up if this ever happens again.

So as soon as thats backed up, I'll flash CM10.... More to come soon.

Samsung S3 Adventures....

As I posted when I bought my S3, it was rooted and had an unlocked the bootloader. I also had clockworkmod installed, backup my rom before trying to install CM10...

Little did I know...
Remember a few weeks back, when it came out that there was a undocumented code that, from the dial pad, could factory wipe the S3. Well Samsung Pushed an OTA update to patch that exploit. And little known to me, I got it, and it locked my bootloader. FAIL!

So I still had  root, Just not a  unlocked bootloader, So after Much research on the subject, I am following these set of instructions. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28530409#post28530409

I am downloading the Rom now so I can Flash it back to stock, then fix the bootloader, then to CM10.

When I am waiting for it to download, I am going to play the Campain mode on Black Ops 2.

More to come...

New Cell... S3... Rooted!

Oh- Yea, I bought the Samsung Galaxy S3 on Saturday  come home, and rooted it using this easy step by step guide for the Verizon version. And it worked like a charm. 

I've got much better battery life, as where my HTC Thunderbolt I had to charge at lunch time to get through the day, I can go from 8 am- 7 pm, without having to connect to a charger. 

Since I'm a power user, I bought the extended battery (From qcell) for it from amazon, and it should be here tomorrow.

 I decided since my brother called his Blue S3 Shella, I'd call mine GLaDOS. Any time I get an alert, she insults me... and Her Skin from ZAGG is coming soon.

I'll keep you up to date on any new projects I do with her. CM10 coming soon!
