Hi, I was playing with resistors on the usb port with the i9305 (galaxy s3) device in order to get the UART serial console working. Then I gave up and took the wires out and flashed replicant to the device. The device would not boot. Then I installed twrp with lineage os to the device. Again, it would not boot. After that I found this "stock" ROM [1] for the device and flashed it. The device booted now! After this I flashed replicant and it would boot also. Why is stock ROM flashing needed in order to get Replicant booting? What thing does the stock ROM do differently?
I think I experienced this same issue also some years ago with cyanogenmod and the fix was also to install the stock rom and then after that flash cyanogenmod.
