[Q] Discussion of ROM and Firmware of GT-I9300 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It may seem a bit stupid but wonder if I install this Galaxy S5 Firmware on my Galaxy S3 go right? Does the Touchwiz it will be the same as the S5? Why seen a ROM (the so "DN4 ROM") based Galaxy Note 4 running on S3, with functions and appearance of the Note 4.
Grateful to all!

Just use the nexus factory images while you are at it. Anyway you kiss your phone goodbye

Why? I did not quite understand.

It will brick your phone. Don't try it.

So you're trying to achieve installing an S5 firmware on S3? That's quite ambitious!
It won't work, I don't have to go into the details because it's obvious.
If you want to change the looks of your device say to an S5 look use the available ROMs here on forums, they look the same as the device they're ported from. For example if you install Blekota's Note 4 ROM, you'll get the exact looks of the note 4, not the same experience though.

[Q] root S3 with S4 stockrom

Hi,
Is it possible to root S3 with S4 stock rom.

Well you can't really put a s4 rom on a s3 dye to the fact that they are two different devices and trying to do this will most likely end up with you owning a bricked phone. Therefore you wouldn't be able to root as this isn't possible unless you had a ported rom.

Rooting vs. ROMs
It also may help to look at it like this: as I understand it, rooting your phone grants you access to low level software functions, such as reading and writing system directories and files. This is useful if you want to overwrite certain files which may alter the functionality of your phone or to perform complete backups and restores. Your phone would need to be rooted in order to install another ROM, as you need to overwrite boot files and other system files.
A ROM, on the other hand, contains the complete system, and other apps the developer has chosen to include. ROMs usually are installed pre-rooted, so that you retain that control.
A stock S4 ROM wouldn't work on an S3, though, because they are completely different hardware, and the kernel, etc. is built with the drivers for the S4. I wouldn't run on your S3 at all.
Smart money says, though, that if they haven't already, developers soon begin pulling out the choicest bits of the new software and making it available for the older phones.
Have a look at the forum for your phone, and keep an eye on the developer sections, and you'll see things popping up.
Thanks a lot guys for the help. How to get the features of S4 on S3 like air gesture, etc. Also which is the best 4.2.2 rom apart from the leaked rom for S3.

Air gestures might be possible to be used on a S3 but there is a low chance as if it is hardware specific it wouldn't work and would be hard to make it work on a S3. Also try CM10.1 it is not fully stable yet but it is an alternative to the stock 4.2 rom.

Just rooted my Galaxy Note 8. How do I update my OS?

Their were a few things I wanted to do with my Galaxy Note 8 that I couldn't accomplish with the stock Samsung Android. One was being able to use my Sixaxis over blue tooth (which is totally awesome and worth the rooting on its own) and the second was being able to update my OS as it is released.
Right now my Note is running 4.1.2 and I would like to run the latests 4.4. I have NO idea how or even if this is possible. Just looking for some advice.

Well, you can use most over the ROM available over the web, I guess you are getting yourself too confused, over the web you need to find the ROM for N900, I am sure if you just try searching over the Google you can find a number of then available. I would say you can try out Custom ROM like CyanogenMod, SlimBean... etc ! There are actually a number of version of Custom Android ROMs you just need to find the one which supports you Note 3. Try going out on experimenting with the CyanogenMod at first.

Custom ROM development for SM-N7502

Hi folks,
I am the happy owner of a new Galaxy Note 3 Neo Duos, a.k.a SM-N7502.
I am unhappy to check that no custom rom development is happening and I am very interested to know why.
I really love Cyanogenmod and would really like to have it ported to this model.
What do you think about porting CM11 to our notes?
I want to check how hard you guys want custom ROM for this device and, maybe, I would like to work on something (I am a developer).
Want to hear from you !
I like the CM too.. used to love the ROM on my Motorola Razr Maxx.. would be glad if you could make it for Neo..

HI People. I have using the phone since the past 5 months. There is no Kit Kat update, no custom ROM development and no major updates for 4.3
I downloaded the following ROM from Sammobile, which seems a bit more stable, but no major change.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/34727/N7502XXUANH2_N7502OLBANH1_THL.zip/
Seems like no one including Samsung is interested to anything about this phone. Even Note 2 has been updated to 4.4 but not this phone,
Its really frustrating. I have used Google phones and samsung phones prior to this and there was so much development going on those phones but this is a dead end.
Although I am quite satisfied with the phone but I might sell it as I like customizing my phones and I cant do squat with this phone.
Hey, I want to update you, guys.
Last weeks I am studying really hard and couldn't find time to work on anything related to our phone. I share the same frustration as most of you do and will really work on it. Sorry guys!
updatesss ??

shame on Samsung
Some day Samsung was believed to support its phones well. But after times and producing hundreds of models, nowadays just flagships are supported. This is a shame for samsung that Galaxy Note 3 Neo Dous has not received even 1 Mb update. Samsung just produces and sells its phones without paying attention to customers. Shame on you Samsung!
n7502 the forgotten phone
been checkin for a couple of weeks now. and still no updates? wow. I think they just forgot they made our phones. anyways. what kind of tweaks have you guys made on your phones since theres no firmware updates for us.
Root → Xposed Framework → Wanam Xposed
Android 5
I'm not sure please help me.
The users of Galaxy Note 3 Neo Duos can now update their handsets to Android 5.0 Lollipop using custom ROM. The new Android 5.0 Lollipop comes with many new features
levelof.blogspot.com/2014/10/upgradeupdate-galaxy-note-3-neo-duos-to.html
Tutorial :
1. Download Android 5.0 Lollipop ROM from link below :
The ROM File size is 128 MB, so I split the file into 3 parts :
ROM Part 1 : goo.gl/7pyL97
ROM Part 2 : goo.gl/ffHU2x
ROM Part 3 : goo.gl/l1zKh5
To combine 3 parts files above into 1 file just use WINRAR, then extract the files into ZIP format.
If any problem with the ROM, maybe because the ROM have corrupted during the download process, you can try to re-download the ROM.
2. Install the ROM Manager on your Galaxy Note 3 Neo Duos. Get it from Google Play Store, then install the clockwork mod recovery. You also can use ROM Installer application from JRummy Apps Inc.(Get it from Google Play Store).
3. Connect your Galaxy Note 3 Neo Duos to your PC employing the USB information cable. Copy the �ROM.zip� file you downloaded to the SD memory card.
4. Restart your device in the recovery mode using ROM Manager. As soon as in Recovery Mode, go to ROM Manager and select backup/restore to back-up your information.
5. From the Recovery Menu do a total data erase (including Delvik Cache). When completed, go back to Recovery Principal Menu and choose Flash ROM from SD Card. Navigate the location you copied the �ROM.zip� file and follow the directions for installing Android 5.0 Lollipop on your Galaxy Note 3 Neo Duos. As soon as the installation is over, just reboot your Galaxy Note 3 Neo Duos device, and here you go, you�ve just upgraded it to the new Android 5.0 Lollipop.
Nice but is there any other link to the rom?
Can anyone plz upload a video

[Q] Gear S - Gear Manager - Rooted Sprint GS5 - Not working!

I'm honestly tired of searching; I guess I'm the only person with a Rooted Sprint Galaxy S5 and a Galaxy Gear S. The GS5 (running on BlissPop) is not supporting the Galaxy Apps/Gear Manager. I've tried several ways to unroot/back to stock ROM and still getting a FAIL from Odin. I want the ability to interact with my Gear S even by going back to stock ROM. I can't be the only one in the world with this problem...! At least I refuse to believe so...

Thats an issue with your BlissPop rom. Have you tried posting in the BlissPop rom forum? The best way to get back to stock is to grab OFFICIAL firmware. Its also possible that your device is formatted for custom roms and would need to be reformated to stock...official firmware should automatically do this if it is different.
