I haven't used my motion in over a year. I have cm10 flashed using 2nd init recovery. How can I go back to stock.?
 
Sorry one more question. Is there a way I can do this without a computer. Sorry folks I've been playing with my sgs3 for the last year and now I want it back to stock for a back up. Any help would be appreciated
 
somewhere in the forums there are stock roms that can be flashed in recovery without a computer. it's been awhile so i can't remember exactly where. hope this helps.
i'll look around and see if i can find it.
 
What does that have to do with my questions dude. Everyone knows that stuff. U wanna help me or pollute my post

Sorry that was directed at brainz
 
seems all the stock roms i could find like mini f have broken links. there are also the callob rom and bella rom they are stock but have been modified slightly. callob or bella is probably your best bet without a pc. i think callob is an aroma installer and lets you choose what to install so i think you can get pretty close to stock with that rom.

Your welcome!
It's about 99.9% stock lol.
It is completely clean... No user data. It will be a fresh setup.
I think it has a couple apps that are installed as a system app. Like SuperSU.
So it technically should be rooted. The recovery.img should be cwm... Although anything like the LTE recovery installer won't be there and would have to be reinstalled to boot to cwm recovery. If I remember correctly lol.
I actually think I'm gonna charge my motion and flash it too and then get it on G firmware.

Here is the link for you thought - 1970-04-03.22.35.13 - Download - 4shared - rob cottrill

Edit:
By the way this isn't a flashable zip, So Make sure you extract the zip, then move the 1970-04-03 folder to your phone and put it in the clockworkmod/backups folder and then just boot to recovery and restore like a normal nandroid.

Thanks man!
Yeah, that's a tough decision between the two... Since you've been using the S3 for a year, the S5 would probably be a good fit for you. Although, I do love my N5 and it's guaranteed like 18 month support, which is quite long and that helps with the whole outdated issue. Plus it has a good price point, not sure what the S5 is going for ATM.

Right at 700 from metro lmao
 
I just flashed that stock F nandroid backup and Wow! It's so weird to see my motion back to stock ROM from PG's CM10 with exposed and themes on it.
It still runs smooth and quick on the stock ROM too.
