Do you own a Samsung Galaxy S3? Maybe you're not a fan of Samsung's custom Android environment - TouchWiz - or maybe you would like to upgrade to a newer version of Android than Samsung have provided for the S3?
I have re-written and extended the XDA SGS3 FAQ to more comprehensively cover what you need to know and how to avoid or overcome the potential pitfalls relating to installing different versions of Android on the phone that made Samsung a major player in the smartphone wars.
I upgraded my S3 from TouchWiz Android 4.1 to CyanogenMod 11 (which is based upon Android 4.4.4) four months ago. Due to the process not being documented properly in one place I couldn't make calls for a week or two after upgrading but I'm glad I did as CyanogenMod is notably faster, more current and has less issues than TouchWiz. I also prefer to run open source operating systems such as CM as I can trust them more. Now I know that if my phone had been running TouchWiz Android 4.3 before upgrading it would've been a quick and painless process but I was caught out by a couple of obscure snags (relating to CSC and modem firmware) which I've now clearly documented in an easy to find place in an effort to spare other S3 owners days or weeks of research and experimentation should their upgrade not go smoothly first time.
