[OFFICIAL] Korean SGS III (SHW-M440S/SHV-E210S/K/L) Rooting, ROMs, and Kernel + Guide

[M@31]

Is there anyone that could help me buy a replacement scren for an shv-e210k?i cracked mine and can't find one in Romania. Help would really be appreciated!

Not too often you can just "buy" a screen.
It's actually the whole front piece. I just replaced my front and it cost me about $100.00.
I'm pretty sure that you cannot actually buy it separately though. Don't quote me on it.

I flashed the rom and everything is great, but I seem to be having a problem with the lock screen. I attached a screenshot, but my lock screen stays frozen with that picture from the moment I flash the ochie rom from recovery. Changing wallpapers does nothing, although if I try the AOSP lock screen the picture will change, but I am unable to change that picture also. Tried flashing back to stock Jellybean, then reflashing the rom, but no good. Factory reset, wiped all caches, but still nothing. Any ideas?

Just to clarify, the picture is basically a blown up/zoomed in version of my previous lock screen wallpaper. It wasn't there when I flashed just the jellybean 4.1.2 upgrade, but then reappears when I flash the ochie rom.

Sorry to repost, but didn't get any response and thought I'd give it one more shot. Anybody maybe have an idea why this is happening? Love the rom so I'm considering just getting rid of the lock screen.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sorry, what ROM are you talking about?
You say that you have flashed back to stock ROM? And your home screen doesn't change?

 

[reissejx]

Thanks. But the rom is really something, its more responsive than previous roms i tried. No lags whatsoever. Flashed berzebb, oc'ed to 1600 & uv'ed -75v, all steps 1step down and im on top of bechmark easily. Ill be able to live with few chinese character so im sticking to this rom for a while.

Thanks for the quick reply, and sorry, it was more clear in my original post. I flashed the Ochie ROM after updating to 4.1.2. But for some reason, after flashing, my lock screen gets stuck with the image I attached. That was my lock screen previously (except now it's zoomed in), but I did a factory reset and wiped all caches, it's not there when I'm on stock jellybean, but when I flash the Ochie ROM, that shows up as my lock screen. If I try to change it, nothing happens.

I even reflashed the stock jelly bean and tried again, but same deal.

 

[conny005]

is the rom doing good? any issues? thanks

Yes it's my daily rom, like i said previously is the best rom for the moment in my opinion.

I tried this ROM last night it works well just feels too "stock" for me. Even has the SKT at the top left.

I dont't see any SKT on the top left on mine

I think I had that because I didn't do a factory reset after flashing the ROM ?!
Haha no idea

How do you knock down all the Berrzebb options down one step? It is so difficult to get them down only one step....?
I've never experienced lag on my phone to be honest, so I can't complain.

Honestly, I do not know why it would stay there.
I would suggest flashing one more time, but make sure you clear cache, clear davlik cache and do a factory reset.
Do it before and after you flash the ROM.
I use Mobile Odin, and just choose the options to clear cache and data reset in the app itself......

There is no reason why the background should stay, unless it has something to do with the ROM itself, but I have used OCHIE ROM and never had that kind of problem.

uhm, i just applied the next lower mv because there is no way to set it @ -1mv.
isn't 1 step down means next lower available setting? it doesnt mean less 1mv right? or im wrong? hope not...
so, my settings are:
CPU
1800mhz:1387500mv 900mhz:1037500mv
1704mhz:1387500mv 800mhz:987500mv
1600mhz:1387500mv 700mhz:962500mv
1500mhz:1350000mv 600mhz:950000mv
1400mhz:1287500mv 500mhz:937500mv
1300mhz:1225000mv 400mhz:937500mv
1200mhz:1187500mv 300mhz:912500mv
1100mhz:1137500mv 200mhz:887500mv
1000mhz:1087500mv
GPU
160mhz:875mv
266mhz:900mv
350mhz:975mv
440mhz:1025mv
533mhz:1075mv

there you go.

do you think its ok to OC my cpu to 1800?
should i OC my GPU too?

I understand what you meant by taking each one, one step down. My problem is that I can't just knock it down one.
They are slide bars that you have slide, but they always slide more than one step........I don't want to mess it up.

Personally, I wouldn't OC my phone to 1800, but if it's not over heating or freezing on you, you should be fine.
It will just wear down the life time of the actual cpu.

I saw before that someone had OC'd the gpu, but can't remember to what.....

sorry...
just slide it.
at first, i moved it left and right to know what number is next to the default. then i tried to move it to that number.
if it stop in the wrong position, move it again until i get the right position before actually applying the settings.
but honestly its quite tedious.

well that being said ill be sticking to 1600.

as for the gpu, i increased the Mhz 1 step up for all steps and the voltage 1 step down for all steps.
i didnt feel any difference with the phone. but it increased the scores.
i promised myself to stop at these settings before i damage my phone

I stoped at 1600, tried 1800 just to see how it move, but the phone restart, recomand do not set OC on 1800 Mhz. I dont undervolt, i think it's already undervolted this kernel.

What app do you use for set cpu? I use System tuner. There you can set all things. To undervolt you have individual buttons for each frequency, but you have 2 buttons to -25mV and +25mV. When you press those you set all the frequencys with one, two or more steps down or up as you wish ... Sorry again for my english.

 

[reissejx]

I havent tried it actually.
I think I am going to go back to stock to be honest....I need my banking app to work.

Even though I really love the CRT and the ink lock screen.....Need over want I suppose.

did you try ExTweaks unroot under miscellaneous tab. It says it will unroot your phone to use other apps then reroot the phone on next reboot

I was using ExTweaks, They just use sliders to adjust.....But, I do use SetCPU on my Tab.
Maybe Ill give that a go and see! Thanks

Yup, this has been tested, but still doesn't allow for the Korean banking apps to work for some reason.

i always have that app and now that you've mentioned system tuner, i checked it and voltage setting is different from extweaks.
which one is correct?

Hmmm, Ill give the virtual thing a try. I have tried just going to the actual website, but it doesn't support mobile devices.
