Root [International] Boot Loop At Splash Screen

For something more stable try cyanogen. Just search get.cm and search for i9300 (thats the code for our phone used by all the devs)
Id suggest a 10.2 build (4.3) build. or 10.1 (4.2.2) for more stability.
Dont bother with their kitkat builds yet (cm11), theyr nice but not ready yet.
Remember you need to flash google apps too (gapps) and they have to corrospond to the android version (4.1,4.2,4.3,4.4)
 
I'm doing a nandroid now m8 ;)

1st one froze at end generating md5 sum... so trying another 1, fingers crossed.

yeah i'm interested in that Carbon pm, is it easy to install?

EDIT - Froze again at end :(

Any ideas why it's doing it? should i do a wipe?
 
As easy as Neat exept that youre flashing Gapps straight after the rom.
Ive never had a backup fail man. Are you backing up to external sd or internal.
Take it youve done a titanium backup for your apps (dont ever restore system apps btw)
Ill pm u the rom then the gapps im using :thumbup:
 
Got a nandroid back up to internal card whoohooo, so i'll move it to external and then follow your PM to flash carbon?
 
Titanium 1st if you wana keep yer apps bud :thumbup:
Move the whole clockwork folder btw. Not jst the backup. And if u rename the backup, dont-leave_any.spaces and dont change the .extension ;)
 
already got a TB on Ext card / PC from before my phone crashed, i can still use that can't i? even though i'm going to use a different ROM.
 
Yeah bro thats fine.
Philz recovery is cool because when you hit data wipe or whatever, it asks if you wana wipe to install a rom and thats all u have to do.
So do that then flash the 3 zips i gave u in that order. Gud luck :thumbup:
 
Cool :)
Carbon has a LOT of settings in the Carbon Fibres menu. Itl take u a day to go through them lol.
You should look for a theme on playstore. Just search CM Theme. I love the Cobalt ones by Dustin B :)
 
Installed Rom etc > booted phone > rebooted phone and all seems to worked well apart from i got emergency calls only lol. Tried house phone and said no mobile network.

Any ideas?
 
Crap thats the one thing i forgot to tell you. Back up EFS just incase this happens.
When you flashed Neat rom, did you use the "backup EFS" option m8?
 
No mate, the IMEI number is there 00499....... Above that > Mobile Network State says disconnected.

I've got my efs folder backed up on Ext and on Pc if that's any help.
 
So does the imei match what it says on the box or under the battery or whatever mate?
I cant think what else the problem would be tbh :confused:
Did you go through the Google sign in at first boot?
