Im running a fd26 build, and honestly even going over the wiki and stuff im still a bit confuddled, i saw recently that fe16 come up but not under the rom section, it was under the modem section. I guess im asking does it work its way to being ROM'd after having some development time or was the fe16 just a modem update and not an entire ROM update? Anyone who can decypher my gibberish i give kuddos to.
fe16 is a date. The date at which the rom, kernal, and modem were released.
In the development section there is a thread that has the stock fe16 update, which will update rom kernal and modem.

Also, any modem will work with any rom... GB or ICS

The only stupid question is the unasked one.
I'm unsure exactly on the odex deodex but I believe one can be themed and the other can't. (<---- doing some research now, apparently this isn't necessarily true) There are probably other differences but hopefully someone with more knowledge will chime in.
Found this in an article on XDA. (Yes I know it says for Eee Pad Transformer but assumed the answer applies in general.)
http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...-best-of-both-worlds-for-eee-pad-transformer/
The deodex vs odex debate is nearly as old as Android itself. While deodex allows for customization, odex typically wins the performance race and no one can be really sure which one is better.

Thanks for the info, im looking at all this inbetween taking calls at work lol. Probably gonna flash it on lunch today, cause im impatient hehe. Thanks again for the replies.
SPH-D710.FD26_CL467198 is the build im running now to answer rwright64's question.
Hey guys, I know I'm new, I mean, like ONE DAY new, but I've been posting around, and trying to help people out.
So, my question is, how in the H*ll do you install a custom ROM?
I've been seeing things ALL OVER the place about "Oh this ROM is Soooooooo coooolll!" but I have yet to find a decent tutorial on how to install one.
Do I just flash it on? And, if so, should I even get a custom ROM if I have no Nandroid backup?
Also, what's the average size of a ROM, and in your opinion, what would be the best ROM for this phone?

so to add a bit more to this you should go in and read the everything about the Glide.
read that will pretty much walk you through the rooting of your glide and backing up of your special esf folder and the backing up at your ROM.
then you're going to update your rom to the latest version that's available which is 4.0 4 and then you're going to follow that thread that I linked
that will get you to the light ROM and the light kernel.

Thanks.
I'm already update to 4.04, so hopefully it'll be easier.
Hello everyone, first off I want to say I have flashed many different phones with CM over the past few years. I have been a fan of android phones since Day 1. I got a G1 the day they came out and was pretty active in the scene up about about 2 years ago. I had a G2 for awhile as well, loved it... had CM on it as well. Anyway, the problem at hand is this Galaxy S III.
I have flashed many phones for friends and co-workers and whomever asks. I have NEVER had such a problem with flashing a phone as this one.
Apparently its a regionally special model (SGH-T999L).
I have downloaded CWM 6.0.3.1 after rooting with motochopper (easiest root experience ever), then I attempted to flash to CM10.1.2. The phone is currently on 4.1.2. When I attempt to flash from CWM, it gives the assert failed error. I have seen a few other threads about this but they were regarding other carriers (AT&T) and honestly I have tried a million and one things in attempt to get this to flash, I have seriously spent over 8 hours today trying to get this flashed to CM10.1.2 and even 10.1, I even tried using the touch version of CWM and tried TWRP to see if I'd get a different result... But no.. same result.
Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? I have tried everything I can think of on all three platforms... Win7, MacOSX 10.6.8 and Ubuntu 10 and 12.... cannot get it to flash to CM no matter what. I am almost positive it is something I am overlooking. If anyone knows how to get past this please let me know, I will gladly send you a present via fedex.
Thanks in advance.
Senor Y.

Basically in some roms, particularly cm and aosp roms they check the bootloader to make sure its up to date. The T999L is just so new that many devs have not yet added its bootloader to the updater-script. Read the info I have in the thread I linked and if you need help editing the script, let me know.
Ill try to fix and upload the rom shortly, just to make it easy for everyone.

Thanks, I figured it was something stupid like that. I will fire up my windows VM and grab Notepad++ and get down to business.

Posted cm 10.1.2 in the T999L q&a thread. Edited to work on T999L.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Thanks again man, I followed your instructions and removed the assert lines... flashed with 10.1.2 -- then flashed the gapps back on and in business on the first try.
I am going to pass the link along to #Cyanogenmod on freenode because there wasn't anyone on there who could help me last night.
Senor Y.
Doc,
One last question, is there a baseband update I need to apply for CM10.1.2 / 4.2.2 ? -- I got the gapps installed and there doesn't appear to be problems yet, but the know-it-alls in #cyanogenmod seem to think I need to install a baseband update but they cannot provide me with a link... so I was wondering what your take on that is.
Thanks again,
Senor Y.

It's bad advice. Ignore it.
Very bad advice! !!
Baseband is your modem which should have nothing to do with your rom. They probably meant bootloader. But the T999L only has one version of firmware available right now, so it wouldn't be possible anyway. Theyd probably tell you to use MD5, but that would brick your phone!
Glad you asked!

FYI, (as stated before), the Nightly builds work with the MB7 bootloader
I thought i had an issue w/ the radio this morning, but it turned out to be a fluke... a reboot resolved it...

help
what line did you delete exactly. what i mean is exactly from 'what' to 'what' did you take out? please and thank you
Im a little confused when I look at the array of stock Roms to choose from.. This is my work phone, so don't want to root or custom.
nearly all roms on Samfirmware and Samsung-updates stop at July. I know we are getting KitKat and jumping 422, but what would be the best stock rom to install for now on a UK N7100, would that be Slovakia XXDMG1 or Turkey XXDMF3.
I did an OTA and the one installed is an old May 31 XXDMF1.
Thanks
First lesson: you cannot ask for a "best" anything. Best is only what's important to you.
Granted, your geographic region may play in to which options you have available, as some modems don't always play nicely.

Ugh. Can't modify my post
The better question would be to find out which roms/modems will work in your area, and go from there to pick out features.

Btw, I'm not trying to be rude in my answer. But any thread that starts with "best" is going to get flamed and likely closed by a moderator for those reasons. Each ROM is a unique piece of work, each with features some people love while others hate. "Best" will always come down to "what works for you"

I don't really get it.
"Stock Rom" with no root. Surely this leaves you with absolutely no choice at all.

Dude if u don't want to root then flash the latest stock rom of ur region..Since u mentioned that u don't want to root ur phone, its better to leave ur phone and wait for OTA updates.
Or u can flash "Android Revolution HD ROM" which is full stock with tweaks and better performance..for root issue,u can unroot it easily from supersu app itself..

Im interested in flashing Revolution HD. Im no stranger to flashing through ODIN, but Ive never rooted before so Im a bit nervous of bricking it, and because I use my phone for work.. I have my own business and need it for every day plus don't want t loose any features through a custom rom.. like S PEN or SOundAlive audio engine, so these combinations is why ive never rooted or custom'd.
But ill look at Revolution, however, ill have to start from the basics of rooting then on from there, but it looks nice
Thanks

Then definitely go for ARHD since its pure stock with tweaks and features
And no..rooting will no way brick ur device with a condition that it is done correctly..but that's rare case of bricking ur device via rooting
So good luck:thumbup:

So your answer is to have the thread taken down instead of letting it get fixed? That's the way things go with a brand new device. Things get broken, things get fixed. If you're not prepared to deal with the early quirks then wait until the stable stuff comes out. Nobody is forcing you to root/flash.
Let the mods worry about what threads should be or should not be. Pipe down unless you have something positive to contribute to the development.
Well said! My thoughts exactly.
