ok guys, for a total noob on android i am. this is the step i used to flash / root my s3m.
what you need.- Odin pc
- CWM
- Kies pc
- Root file (to root your phone)
- Custom rom (if you want to install custom rom)
STEP / PROCEDURE- Root your phone (use Odin to flash CWM on your phone. Odin / CWM / Root file is in the thread given)
Root Reference- Backup Your EFS Folder using EFS_Pro_1.9.12.
EFS Backup Reference- Do a full backup in CWM by entering recovery mode. (3 Combo key = shut down the device then vol up + home key + power key)
- make a clean wipe of data / factory reset in cwm (not your ext sd card)
- put the custom rom file in you ext sd card, then flash it in CWM (recovery mode). clean/wipe dalvik-cache & cache then reboot.
- you can delete the .zip file you've put in the ext sd card earlier after finish flashing.
enjoy your s3m.
