I guess the next thing will be either heimdall or maybe kexec support (the latter is purely speculative by me, if it works it's the 2nd best thing next to fastboot boot, search for 'galaxy s3 kexec' seems like it's in use for the locked VZW S3 already!) | |

Think you may be right about it not supporting fastboot. When i run adb reboot bootloader it just reboots the phone normally. In this case what is the best way to flash my custom built kernel on? fastboot looked good because by using fastboot boot zimage i could test the kernel before flashing it on. Is there another utility i can use that will give me this functionality? Thanks

If it has it: You need to boot into the correct mode, if I'm not wrong its this combo: "vol-up+home+pwr" then plug into USB. You see an alternate boot screen then (if not, search for "enter fastboot mode s3" or so). I'm not sure if the 'boot' command is supported with your S3 though (that's up to Samsung if they support it) | |
