What process did you use to root? Did you use Odin? If so, it sounds like the modem.bin file may not have loaded correctly.

why is this in development?

Last I checked z4root was free. So why did you d/l it from an illegal warez app?

Firmware and PRL update

How do I know if I have the latest Firmware and PRL on my phone. I don't want to update something and lose my root or anything.

You can go into the about phone under settings to see them. Updating your PRL and profile are safe to do and will not mess with your root. Firmware is the ROM you are running. So that really becomes an issue of which you prefer.

I've been looking for the thread that walks you through retrieving your MSL? and entering a ## code to remove the data governor. Has anyone tried that trick on this most recent update?

Yes and it works. Both bonsai and acs come standard with this trick already

Anyone know of a way to load your own PRL yet?

Got my MSL from sprint but the ##PRL# method I used on the evo doesn't work, and this method for the epic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145111&page=3
I can't try because it doesn't look like samsung has released the right drivers yet.
Any other ideas?
I need to make sure I can get a signal in a specific location with a specific PRL before deciding to keep the phone lol
Epic method will work. Just need the updated drivers.

[HELP] Getting root without PC

Hey XDA,
I was wondering if there was a way to root the t999 without using a PC, because I don't have one at the moment. Thanks in advance.

I'm guessing you already searched and couldn't find it.
It didn't work. For some reason it was only working on Sprint phones.

Do you know any other possible way/exploit?

Wouldnt using Mobile ODIN allow you to flash the root .tar file from your device? Not certain as I never used Mobile ODIN.

Nope, it requires root. Unfortunately. Which I think is kind of stupid.

I just think it's inconvenient for people who want to flash tars that are not rooted. I do think the app is absolutely amazing though.

MobileODIN wouldn't work if it wasn't Root. Functional, not stupid.
Back on topic, on other devices that I have had, you can flash a custom recovery via the stock recovery but naming the file 'update.zip' and placing it in the root of the ext_sd. Not sure about the T999 series, I haven't looked into or tried it.
What about cf autoroot by chain fire?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
CF auto root requires Odin on a pc.
I really do not think there.is a way to do this. Sorry man.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Suggestion: Find an internet cafe (if you can find one that allows downloading exes)
Pay for the time you think you might need.
Download Odin
Download the files you need
You know the rest!
Or you must have a friend who would be willing to give you a go.
It takes about 15 mins to do it if you know what you are doing.
I hope that helps, cheers!
Thanks guys. Mods can close this topic now.
