    Root [AT&T] Do custom ROMs not come with root?

    So I just installed SlimROM onto my S3. None of my root-apps can get superuser access. No superuser prompt shows up, they all get the message "Superuser access is needed but could not be acquired". There *is* a Superuser thingy in the Advanced Options, so I don't know why it isn't working. I...

    Root [AT&T] Installed new ROM, now I have no cell service

    I just installed CarbonRom d2lte to my SGH-I747m S3, and now I have no cell service. It has bars, but no service. The APN menu is blank. When I try to enter a new APN manually, after I tap 'save', it doesn't save, the APN menu remains blank. Tweakker's APN app says I have no SIM card. But...

    Root [International] 4.3 alternatives?

    so since nobody in their right mind should willingly update their Samsung devices to Android 4.3, can anyone recommend any good 3rd-party alternatives? Samsung enables the KNOX eFuse in Android 4.3, which means that trying to root your phone will result in a void warranty... that TriangleAway...

    Root [International] How do I update a rooted phone?

    So I've got a rooted Canadian Galaxy S3 (SGH-I747M), and according to Samsung, Android 4.3 is now available for it. So about 15 minutes ago I clicked "check for updates" under Settings-System-Software Update. It has been 15 minutes, and it STILL says "Checking for software updates...."...

    Root [International] Galaxy S3 - poor performance in new games?

    I have a rooted Galaxy S3 (SGH-I747M) with Bell Canada, with stock rom. I believe this is the 2-core version, not the quad-core, because I only have two CPUs listed in SystemPanel. I have seen videos of people playing the latest games like NOVA 3 and Modern Combat 4 on their Galaxy S3. My...

    Oleophobic screen protectors?

    I'm looking to get a good case for my Samsung Galaxy S3. I've been through two already; One was a two-piece rubber/plastic combo, which I bought because I thought the rubber was rigid silicon rubber, which would add some friction and keep the phone from sliding around. But it was this weird...

    Help My launcher is compressing my wallpaper, and it looks awful!

    I'm trying to set my wallpaper on my rooted stock S3 for Holo Launcher HD. When I tell it to set wallpaper, it asks if I'd like to choose the wallpaper from Gallery, Wallpapers, Live Wallpapers, or ES File Explorer. Well "Wallpapers" and "Live Wallpapers" are out of the question, because they...

    Help WiFi turning on and off during games, even with strong signal?

    I have a rooted SGH-I747M Galaxy S3 with Bell Canada, with stock ROM/firmware, and the flash counter reset with TriangleAway. So my WiFi is connected, the signal is varying from -57dB to -70dB, which as I understand is 100%-80% signal strength, as confirmed by the "bars", and it works just fine...
