Noob here. I can't find this anywhere. I just flashed (or whatever you call it,) to UVALH3. With 4.1.1 came all the bloatware again that I had removed when I had the phone rooted. Is it possible to root UVALH3 as well? I can't find it anywhere. Do I just go ahead and ODIN the same file to do it or has there just been no safe way found yet for UVALH3? Thanks.

thank you
EDIT: Actually I'm not quite sure how to do this. Are you supposed to go into recovery mode and install from external? It gives me a signature verification error when I try that.
OP: for your own good don't do anything else at the moment. I'm on my phone and driving so I can't really help too much but for your own good don't do anything or else you might end up bricked. Make sure you get a reply before you continue. If you don't get one in the next few hours I'll post a reply and walk you through the steps. I can't right now though.
To the op, you need to get back to ics to root and flash the jellybean rooted rom(need a custom recovery)

Well that could have been absolutely horrible, I guess. I think I'll just wait until there is a method for rooting when I already have UVALH3

My friends has a gs3 he purchased on release day and rooted it. The past week he accepted two ota's which broke his root. So I'm trying to root it for him but here's where the confusion kicks in. On sprints website it actually show these updates are old and not new and there's two more recent ones he never got pushed to him. Right now the phone is on LG2 and won't update any further. What do I need to do to be up to date with root. Should I just look for a way to root this build or try updating it. By the way I haven't seen any root methods for this build which is why I'm asking. Thanks in advance to anyone who responds :beer:

Thank you! One more question. I'm reading but I don't see anything regarding data wiped. So does doing any of these steps wipe out all data?

The method he used to root it in the first place should work again. Try that.
Then once it's rooted again go to this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1904099
Download the file "LI3 STOCK WITH AUTO COUNTER RESET" in the first post and flash the file in recovery. That will put the phone to 100%stock, unrooted, on the latest build.
From that point, if he wants to, he can reroot the phone and install the latest TWRP recovery. After that, tell him not to accept any OTA updates. Come back here to the development forum and someone will have the update in flashable form so that root isn't lost.

Yup thats the most easy way of doing it. you say ur not rooted but do you have custom recovery? If so then re rooting before the flash wouldn't be necessary.
It will not wipe data however its recommended that you do. granted it will probably work just fine if it being installed over top of a stock Rom. Then to keep root/recovery just follow the instructions in the post

I'm not sure if he has a custom recovery but I'm assuming if he was able to accept ota's and install them fine he must have stock recovery. I'll have to check and see a lil later as he's at work now.

Any reason why his phone got these updates pushed back to back? And better yet why did it it stop at LG2 and not push LI3 and the one before that? Those two where his first updates since having the phone and they're mad old lol
Wish you guys had Odin OneClicks like we do for the GS2. Them things are so easy and stoopid proof lol

Sprints update system sucks......As for odin, you select the file you want to flash and click start......pretty stupid proof if you ask me. There is a .tar for the most recent update and the jellybean leak available in the development section.

Yes it is stupid proof but it also makes you have to take an extra step to reset the count. On my phone I just deal with the Odin OC which don't mess with your counts and come rooted then mobile Odin for the rest. Never have to worry about a flash count. But anyways thanks for all the help guys! I'm going to try and get this done tonight. Even though we both going for the note 2 in just a matter of days

I currently on ics stock phone but rooted so I can delete bloat. I am currently downloading jelly bean from samsungs website. http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SGH-T999 . I don't want to brick my phone or anything and I am not sure about how to go about this. What is the best way to go about this? Can I just simply open odin and load jelly bean in there and install? How should I go about this? Thanks in advance.
Also when I get jelly bean on will my cwm files work or do I need to wait for a new version to come out?
Flash the stock rooted version:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991255
Otherwise you'll need to flash back to stock. Then update
You can't update with a custom recovery like cwm.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I think thats already what I got. I don't have any custom roms or anything. Just stock with root for my current setup. 4.0.4. Can I just upgrade straight to jelly bean then without wiping my data?
In your second post you mention your cwm files. Do you have a custom recovery?
How did you root might be a better question?
Just rooted you can update, but will probably lose root
If you have clockwork (cwm) or twrp recovery the update won't flash

The way I rooted was using the method zedomax posted. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1735561
I did find an article that I think is the answer im looking for. Right now I got odin putting the stock out of the box software back on.
How did you get Odin to do that? I have CWM installed and everytime I reboot the phone (Home, Vol Up, Power) CWM comes up but Odin doesn't recognized the phone as being connected. It will only recognize my phone when it's booted normally into Android.
All I did was follow the steps in the 2nd link I posted. It worked and I just did an update through the settings menu.

It should, though I would recommend a different way.
You can get the root66 firmware from the FW thread linked in my sig. Its just the stock fw, but prerooted.
Flash it via odin and youre done!
If you dont want to mess with the fw you can use the method you posted, but id get up to date files first.
I havent watched it in some time but I think you can get most of what you need from the fw thread, post 2. If you need help finding something else just let us know.

I think they are looking for a permanent root method. That is something I am unfamiliar with. Most of these tools make it super easy to root anyway. Think of how much work these developers put in to building these kick ass ROMs for us. It makes taking 30 minutes of downloading and clicking seem like cake.
Edit: to avoid having to re root just read everything before you start flashing and end up with a brick.

For anyone coming across this in the future:
If you are using Supersu, there is a full unroot option in the Settings tab.
Hello,
My phone is rooted but ROM is stock. I don't generally flash anything and just stick to removing bloatware.
I installed TWRP and now I cannot get the latest official OTA AT&T update since the update load fails due to not having stock recovery. I have been searching online and cannot figure out how to get stock recovery.
I have been able to locate a supposed stock zip ROM for this phone. Can I just somehow flash this ZIP to return my phone to stock.
On previous phones I have been able to do a factory reset, which I have done several times on this phone today, in order to get it back to stock and accept OTA updates. This TWRP seems extremely invasive and I cannot get rid of it.
Thanks for any help

I gave up and ended up just flashing cleanrom 3.5. Didn't wipe, kept all of my apps and data. I recommend this route if, like me, you want to keep stock kernel and tw.

I am the original poster. My phone would not flash the stock ATT rom that I downloaded somewhere. It could have been a bad ROM.
I could only end up getting into recovery and download mode. I did something to erase the entire operating system.
The guys over at TWRP or at least the guys on the message board got me through it. I ended up flashing the 3.5 clean rom. I never flashed a rom before only rooted. i also flashed the new modem zip as well. So far so good I guess.
Im going to have to figure out how to do an entire backup of my phone so that next time I can just restore it.
Thanks for the replies

Boot in to recovery (it's now an option from the power button) and follow the very easy buttons for backup. Select everything for an entire system backup (7 checks, I believe). Future backups can be just your data and apps if you want.

I did the RWilco one click method for the sph-d710vmub. everything went great phone rebooted perfect turned on and I have the superuser app. Im running on android 4.0.4 Fl26 (stock). My recovery mode saids ACSRecovery5 v1.0.0.0 CWM5 based.
Now every time i try using a rooted access app. Dosnt let me at all not super user, barnacle, mobil odin, Titanium back up.
I tried flashing roms, saids installation aborted.
Can anyone tell me if im actually rooted or not?
And if so how can I get root permission so i can get these apps going, and I can flash my ass away.
Im really anxious to see my phone full potentials and Im really doing this to change my sg2 theme.
So thats my reason for root. Im a complete noob, but I got this far after almost bricking my phone/

You are not rooted if apps won't pull it. You don't need root to theme. There are plenty of launchers. Since you seem to have a CWM, you can flash a rooted ROM.
