Looks like the CleanROM thread is closed and therefore I can't ask questions there. I'm going to take a risk and ask here:

After installing CleanRom I began the boot process but it get's stuck on the screen that says Samsung and the blue LED is on. Have to remove battery to reboot back into Safestrap and activate the stock rom and boot into that.

At this point I think I should be asking a different question. Is there a noob tutorial/guide that takes someone with no knowledge through all the steps? I read so many things and everywhere I go I keep finding that our particular Galaxy s3 from Verizon is so specific and can only use certain tools.

To anyone who's willing to help me, this is what I've done so far:

1. I flashed the baseband (modem?) from VRUCNC1 to VRUCML1
2. Rooted with Towelroot
3. Installed Safestrap
4. Reboot into Safestrap.
5. Create ROM-Slot-1
6. Wipe ROM-Slot-1
7. Installed CleanROM-8.2 on ROM-Slot-1
8. Reboot into system. (This is where it get stuck on the Samsung logo and black screen)

I didn't do anything with firmware. I don't even know which firmware I have. But I did download d2vzw_VRBMF1_firmware.zip

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
