    Root [Sprint/Cricket] Subway Surfers not working on CM 4.3+

    ***I tried Googling this issue and could only find a suggestion about different kernels in ROMs. I wanted your guys take. I just recently started playing Subway Surfers.

    Help Disable the OTA notification?

    After Googling and searching on here, I wanted to ask if there is any possible way to stop the OTA notification on my fiance's S3? Her phone isn't rooted. It's stock and it's fine the way it is. My brother took 4.3 and is having issues. Is it safe to update (no glitches and stuff) or can she...

    Steps to take to backup internal SD card?

    I've tried Googling about backing up stuff but I haven't come across the specific info I'm looking for. I have a rooted 16gb S3 running the latest nightly KitKat CM 11. I've flashed other ROMs and I feel like all the cache and stuff has taken up space (down to 7gb and I don't have many apps...

    Storage space clean up

    I've tried Googling ways to clean up my internal storage on my S3. I don't have an SD card. It shows I have a little over 7.5gb of space but I don't have that much on the phone. I'm rooted running a custom ROM, I've deleted all previous downloaded ROMs, I have minimal apps, pics and music on it...

    Root [Sprint/Cricket] Unofficial KitKat ROM

    Has anyone else flashed the unofficial CM11 KitKat ROM? I flashed last night and find it to be really stable. No reboots, stalling or camera freezing. Just curious if anyone else flashed it and wanted to add their opinion. Thanks!

    Root [Sprint/Cricket] Weird flash?

    Last night I went to flash the nightly CM 10.2 (4.3.1). I did everything normally- factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, etc. I flashed 10.2 + gapps. When I rebooted, I went through the initial screens, signed into my Google stuff. Then when I got to my home screen: BLANK. There were no apps, no app...

    Google apps

    I tried to ask this in the root section but I will ask it here as more people will see it. I have been running the Cyanogenmod nightlies on my S3 lately. I went to the goo.im site to download my usual gapps the other night and when I click the ones for 4.3 it says file cannot be found. I keep...

    Hi guys, I know there are stock rooted versions for S3s on here (4.1.2 is on here I can see). 4.3 is rumored to be released in the coming months. Will there eventually be a stock rooted version of 4.3?

    Root [Sprint/Cricket] Reset question

    I have a simple question. Not that I'd want to do this but what would happen if I chose to factory reset my phone while on a custom rom? Would it just reset the rom or actually screw the whole phone? Just wondering. I know that if you're a regular stock user that it will just reset the whole...

    Root [Sprint/Cricket] Difference between kernels?

    I've been looking into various ROMs and was wondering what the difference between kernels is. For example: in the people's rom there is stock, agat and knootz (sp?). What is the difference among them all and don't they have any effect on battery life? Thanks!

    Root [Sprint/Cricket] Stock rooted flash question

    Going through the list of ROMs on here I noticed there are "stock rooted" options. However, I saw one that said you can't just flash the particular ROM over just any ROM and that it's meant for flashing over your regular stock ROM. Is there any danger in flashing a stock ROM over CM or something?

    Root [Sprint/Cricket] Unroot directly from Superuser?

    While I was browsing through Superuser I noticed that there is an option to fully unroot. If one were to go through this process would anything on the phone mess up? Just curious. Thanks

    Root [Sprint/Cricket] Storage question

    I've flashed a few ROMs and am currently running Illusion. I noticed my storage space slowly shrinking. Nothing horrible though. I went into my storage space and under Misc I have 3.75gb of stuff in there. I clicked on it and it brought me to a file named 0 which has the most stuff in it. I...

    Root [Sprint/Cricket] SD card question

    Maybe a newbie-type question since I'm still getting used to rooting, but can you put in an 8gb SD card to an already rooted phone like mine or will the phone be messed up in some way? I haven't done this, I tried searching on here and even Googling it but couldn't find an answer.

    What are some good Sprint ROMs that don't have bloatware? I'm running a nightly on CyanogenMod. I'm loving the ROM due to how quick it is but was looking for something more stable. Also I notice with the nightlies there is something major I need to adjust. First nightly I flashed the texts I...
