  • Use the ‘VZW GS3 EZ-Recovery App’ to flash the CWM recovery image(below) and reboot into recovery
  • Format system, data, and cache
  • Flash the zip
  • Then flash GApps.
  • Reboot
    • NOTE: With kexec, your device will appear to bootloop twice. This is expected and is the hijack running its course. Just sit tight and you’ll see the unicorns in action soon enough.
  • Upon welcome screen just touch the 4 corners of the welcome screen clockwise starting at top left to skip activation.
  • Profit!

Kexec-Enabled CWM 6.0.1.0: d2vzw_recovery.img


ROM: aokp_d2vzw_milestone-6.1.zip

GApps: gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip

What works:
Pretty Much Everything

What doesn’t work:

  • Data can be glitchy at times.
  • MMS, this is due to current Phone Number not being recognized by device.
  • When receiving Notification during audio playback(music, netflix, youtube, etc). Audio does not auto-resume. Press volume button to resume it for now.
