Hi Amuza, I am not sure I understand your question but does the https://redmine.replicant.us/projects/replicant/wiki/GalaxyS3I9300Installation page answer it ?
It especially contains the instructions to install replicant and give a link to https://redmine.replicant.us/projects/replicant/wiki/ReplicantImages to download images. Hope this will help - Fil Lupin. ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Tuesday, April 2, 2019 4:21 PM, amuza <[email protected]> wrote: > Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli: > > > On Mon, 01 Apr 2019 20:04:00 +0000 > > amuza [email protected] wrote: > > > > > Hi Denis, > > > Hi, > > > > > Thank you for your answer, but there must be a misunderstanding of my > > > problem, or maybe the message you sent was not really for me...
