I have an idea to get an OTA for EG31 phones. I need someone from the Southeast US who is on EG31 to PM me. I will tell you up front it has a low chance for success, but it is worth a shot since we don't know how long it will take for the official OTA to come out.
I prefer someone who got on EG31 through no fault of their own (i.e. sprint flashed it or you received it like that), but this is not a requirement, it will just increase the success rate.
I will update this post when I found someone (and definitely bump the thread if you are on eg31 and want the ota sooner rather than later). Unless this post explicitly says otherwise, I am still looking.

PM'd. I am in Orlando.
im in SE texas.. and i know a lot about flashing the phone and what not, I just had to make a new xda username. So ignore my member status
Don't know how "southeast" you need one to be for your experiment, but I'm in southern Texas and consider myself technically savvy. Hit me up if I can be of use.
Any luck with this?

Is it possible right now to return to stock after rooting the device. The 3g and voice issue is giving me moment nightmares of a time i hoped to forget.

Not yet. A method should be out soon, though.
I heard updating the prl fixes it even if there is no update.

Can't believe some of the stuff people do in here or the things they post... If this was really for our phones why not just wait for a developer to put it all together for you... Haste makes waste...SMDH
I hope someone comes up with a solution for their phones because it was more than 1 person that flashed it...
so, does that mean an official OTA in 2013? haha **troll**

When I was a noob, it wouldn't go near something like this unless I read that 200people have done it succesfully before me. I wouldn't even think of just flashing something unless it was cleary stated it was for my phone and had step by step instructions on what to do and I would confirm about 50x that it was for my phone before actually falshing it.
Now that I am no longer a noob and would like to consider myself a veteran at flashing, I even stay further away from these things. lol

+1 Back in 2009 when I first started modding (a Motorola Razr) I stumbled onto XDA. After getting my wizard 1st, and then my excalibur (t Mo Dash), I made sure I read everything thrice, even 4 times, before flashing. I was a lot more gung-ho back then. After totally bricking my Fender MT3G, I take more caution. I am super ocs now with my E4GT (best device I've ever owned), so I was just kidding about the guinea pig thing, lol.

Currently, we have Wild and Doc doing most (all?) the modem pulls. People get busy with real life, and sometimes cannot be around to pull new modems as they are released.
I am pulling them as well (have I5 now before posted on board), and can upload them somewhere for people, but was not sure about public reception since I only have 20 posts. If you want to see some of my other work, you can Google me. You can also wait until Doc uploads his version then verify that the MD5 on his modem.bin matches mine (updater-script will not match).
I've made a script to pull modems, and can share that as well, if people want. Be advised that my prepackaged modems do not create a modem.backup file. Instead, I've created a directly flashable UVLEM zip file in it's place, as I feel this is a better solution.
Go ahead and post if people don't want to flash they won't but I prolly will

Hi guys. So my girlfriend dropped her iPhone 4s and smashed the screen to hell. Cough cough. Lol. Anyway I'm thinking I'm going to let her just have my epic touch. So I used triangle away app and also did a full stock restore. I'm wondering though could Sprint ever tell I had it rooted and had custom kernels before or should we be all set? Don't ask me why but she wants nothing to do with root. I gotta try to get you guys a pic of that phone though. It's pretty bad. Thanks.

Probably not. But I've heard of cases in the past where people would end up with a big charge on their bill all of a sudden. Most likely wouldn't happen now but better safe than sorry. Anyway I don't plan swap it out anytime soon but you never know.

I can honestly tell you that it is now an issue. Until we see things changed with the DCMA, it's now fair game to question all devices again, regardless of age. That's the way it's being handled.
I have sent a subject related question to our FSM's here for them to talk and discuss, while MSL obtaining talk is still OK, you have every reason to be concerned on what tech may look at. We have a few tech's in this forum who can speak better to what the directives are now on their level, but I do know that initial reps and managers have been instructed to pay more attention.
TL;DR - I know this is off topic from your op, but you're right to be concerned.

If the flash counter is 0 and device status says Official, they won't say anything. They can not deny a claim based on intent from having something on the SD.

Link to Dev thread where we have the working recovery image for the regular T999. We need the others so that users don't have to send their devices away and over pay for something that we can do ourselves for free.

Believe it or not I don't have the T999L! Just the plain old original T999. I just jumped in on that stuff because I like getting in on that discovery phase for a new device. And it was closely related enough that I could apply much of what I already knew to help others.
I have put out a few requests for the dumps needed. But for some reason most people just don't want to do the little bit of legwork required I guess. I still can't even get a /system dump or pull for the T999N, though several have said they would do so. Can't provide em with a way back to stock without it.
Anyway, I've kinda run into the same issues for finding these dumps. Still trying though.
Thanks for all your work KAsp3rd! And good to see you still pop in once in a while Woody!

Why not just upload it and PM him the link?
And I'm sorry to ask it of you, but if you are still currently stock, would you be willing to pull some stuff for me? I've been trying to find someone to do this so I can provide you guys with a way back to stock if needed. I did the same for the T999L if you want to check the thread in my Sig.
If you are willing, I can walk you through the process. Not too difficult at all.
If not, it's cool. Just asking.
