Looks like Chainfire just released an app that lets us flash firmwares straight from the phone, AND it keeps us rooted throughout the process! Pretty sweet!

Not for us yet though.

Idk, but this would be nice to flash on the fly. To bad we don't have a ics or miui rom yet.
My guess is it's just a matter of time pretty awesome concept!

Mobile Odin
Found this in software development. Looks like the att version is already supported and I posted a support request already for our version. Please read as this would be just another way to restore our phones without affecting download counter. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899 BTW made by chainfire so you know its good.

Yah Chainfire makes pretty legit stuff.
just send a PM to CF and ask to include our T989
as i recall from the Heimdall developer there was something different about our phone, so CF will need to make the necessary changes for it to work as well
so does Heimdall needs to be updated to support our phone
Coming from E4GT
Hi,
It's been 3 months since last comment, and I installed mobile ODIN on my SGS2 E4GT just a few days ago. Works great, but was wondering if there are any news about whether the TMO SGS2 is supported yet. I switched to TMO and my phone is still "virgin".
Sgh-T989 is not on the supported list

Wait not all sr roms work with your phone? Why not? Every rom should. But if there is a difference between your phones, i suggest holding out. I am not sure if your phone shares the same compatibility like how ours and telus are the same. But anyways, you guys should definitely wait before jumping the gun.

Here's my take on this. You want to know where to find out when ICS drops for this device within minutes of it happening or Samsung/T mobile/Telus announcing it? XDA will know within minutes. You aren't going to find a better source than this forum. The guy working in a call center didn't know sh#t compared to this community. I'm willing to bet there are a good amount of software developers from any companies with the info that are active XDA users. When they have the ability to release the info our a new leak is found, we'll know in short time.

It will probably be released in odin compatible form which means that likely we will have to wait until he releases helmdall files than somebody will have to make a cwm flashable version.

tmobile offical update for jellybean wont be until the end of 2012, so cant we just port the official jelly bean update from sprint? cause basically the sprint gs3 and all other carriers are the same internally except for the radio. so as long as we just flash the rom without the radio, we should be good ? i have no idea. idk. just a thought

I believe all the carriers have pretty much identical hw except the radios. They most likely have the same partition mapping and so its probably ok to flash anothers roms.
That said, I would NOT do this without solid confirmation. Its basically an educated guess on my part. (A day or two ago someone said they flashed a Verizon rom and it worked, but again, I wouldn't take my or their word for it alone)

Someone in general clashed Sprint and Verizon ROMs just fine. The only issue was getting radios to communicate with the software. I believe they got everything working on the Sprint ROM but Verizon had extra authentication methods.

The OP could be telling the truth, but till a credible member verify this, I'll question the validity of his/her post. Still, even if it turns out to be true, It remains to be a question whether a sprint rom is flashable on ours or not.

You can flash a sprint rom just fine. will stuff not work without modification? yes, but you will not brick it.
Now, if you flash an international rom to a US variant you will brick because the partitions are different. But everything is the same on the US variants. You do have to change things in the build.prop and make other mods to make it work on GSM. The only thing bad would be if the sprint rom flashes a modem but that wouldn't even brick because you could just flash the correct modem
I also want to mention I released a straight stock port on the ATT forums. This release will work for tmo as well. You just have to change the build prob stuff to show it as a t999 instead of a i747
All the S3 from US carrier have the same hardware. It could be ported just that the radios will have to be changed. I wont doubt it if they do it :good:
OK guys no more talking, that's the official JB for the sprint version, ported for the T-Mobile
Check out. Working great on my phone.

Sorry to disappoint you guys, but I would feel guilty releasing this when I know that the repartition could kill your phone. I know the phone has been out and you guys have had to wait awhile, but you've waited this long, why screw your phone up when legitimate cm is close. With korean 3.4 kernel source, we will be able to have cm done fairly quickly. It's not up yet but will be soon. Also, I have some exciting stuff planned for after cm (sense, miui, and whatever else you guys want).

Hey, xbox, with the source would it be easy to port the Korean version of 4.1 too? I am not knocking CM. I just don't see what you gain.
I only ask because it might be a few months before we get updated from Sprint.
