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

[johnny31092]

Thanks a lot. I only extracted the zip file then flashed the resulting file via Odin. Thankfully, I haven't experienced any problem by following your advises.

Anyways, is Triangle Away working for SHV-E210S? I was wondering because it was posted in the thread "[2012.11.17][ROOT] TriangleAway v2.37" that the Korean LTE devices are disabled due to issues. When I also installed and opened the app, I received the "Could not locate hidden partition. Are you not running ICS?" notification. Is there any other way to fix this?

I have the E210S triangle away works fine if you don't update to the newest version.

I also used the Triangle Away version, and it worked (Ive got the E210S).
Do not know if I have updated it though, so guessing, I am not going to try it anymore ahahaha

Very strange that it was working, but now it isnt.

I ain't a dude. Just scroll back few pages. Kernel came with extweaks. Undervolt- 50mv to save some power with some audio tweaks. It's a dropbox link. Make sure you flash the right file with odin (kt_boot.tar)

Mamaged to get about 17-18 hours with light usage on Wi-Fi n 30 mins on skype video call.

Also using TB to freeze unused samsung stuffs.

Try flashing the Pre-rooted firmwares at the OP..SMS limit is up to 160 characters plus most bloatwares removed.:fingers-crossed:

No worries

Btw, I've found an awesome mod that works on my phone ! Music lovers here you go: *I'd highly recommend this add-on but as usual flash at your own risk & if you can do make a backup before flashing*. But i didn't & it worked fine :victory:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1945535

I'm on a pre-rooted rom, with berrzebb kernel + CWM touch.

Instructions are on the link, just follow it but please do take note to Wipe cache/dalvik in CWM then flash away. I'd recommend to save the file on ext sdcard for easy search/flash.

File attached.

Happy flashing :fingers-crossed:

Well, if it still works with your device having the latest JellyBean update, can you please share it?

Even if it's the outdated version, as long as it works and has no problem, I would greatly appreciate having it.

Could you please share it via attachment? I'm really having a hard time removing my flash counters.

Hi. I flashed the i9300 Android Revolution HD 16 rom and whi;e network and imei is fine.

SERIAL number seems to be all zeroes. How do i fix this? Thanks.

Stock rom 4.1.1 doesn't even show the serial number...

I just looked at my phone and it says the same thing. Everything is working just fine but the serial # is all 0's. Strange... I think that information is contained in EFS. I will have to search around. If I am right, did you make a backup of your EFS?

------

Restored a stock rom and it doesn't even list the serial number in the status part of settings..... dunno how to check, but I am just going to not care like I have been not knowing/caring for the past few months.

I have since restored my Omega rom and noticed that my serial number is back and not zero's now... I don't have my box handy to look at the serial number on it and make sure it is correct.

I am saying that I used it and it worked when I first got the LK3.
But, I think that I have updated it since then, through auto updates....So, I am not too sure if it would still work. It seems that lots of people are having problems now.....

I obviously am not going to try and see if it works......
Im going to be using MobilOdin from now on and that doesn't increase my counter, sorry.

I can provide you with the .apk if you really want it, but like I said, people have been having problems with it I believe......It is version 2.30

Do you mean 2GB Memory?
If so, then yes there is.......

If you actually mean Internal Capacity, then yes, of course they all have at least 2GB of internal storage.

Hey guys,

My friend helped me get a SKT SGSIII LTE (SHV-E210S) from Korea, unlocked. When I put in the sim card from China Unicom (when I was overseas) the 3G worked flawlessly. When I came back to the US a couple of days ago, there was no data network at all. Went to AT&T and they couldn't figure it out, I googled for hours and came up with nothing, so this is my last resort. Anybody else have this problem? I'm pretty much illiterate when it comes to phones, so please be patient. I thank you in advance for any help. Also, it's stock - nothing has been changed (because I don't really know how to change anything haha).

Thanks!

Nevermind. The safer, the better. I don't want to risk anymore bricking this device. Maybe there really is an issue that's why Chainfire disabled access to SGS3 Korea LTE devices. At least I got an idea from you. I didn't know that Mobile Odin doesn't increase flash counters. Maybe I'll be using it instead in my future flashes. Thanks a lot.

If you're talking about internal memory, I really doubt Samsung officially released a GS3 device having only an internal of 2GB.

There are a lot of Korean SGS3 Clones sold at the market nowadays.

Better check the model number. If it is GT-I9300 and is said to be made in Korea, most likely it is a clone.

Not sure if this has been posted, but there is a firewall app called android firewall that's pretty new. It's basically the same as droidwall which is no longer being developed,and it blocks 4G data as well as 3g. It's a must for me in terms of battery life . I easily go a full day now whereas before I would barely make it half. Definitely should check it out if you're rooted (which I'm assuming is everyone here).

Thanks for the reply. And another thing, Is CM10 support with SHV-E210S? Please reply me soon:crying:

Have you tried the hidden menu and change the System/Network selection.....you can switch it to all and then maybe it can find 3G..........when I got the phone it was switched to GSM so couldn't access WCDMA/LTE....I went to the hidden menu and changed radio preference......so maybe this will solve your problem...Good luck

Well you can use CM10 builds for I9300 if you flash the custom kernel by berrezek (spelling error maybe there), it is listed a few pages back......but you will not be able to use SMS/MMS....all other functions work fine
