[Q] Mobile ODIN didn't flash the FD05 Modem

Mobile ODIN didn't flash the FD05 Modem that I gave it.
It rebooted, looked as if there was some progress going on, then booted back into the OS. My baseband shows FC24 as it did before and works fine.
Has there been any kind of corruption done to the kernel or modem on the phone? (All I gave it to flash was a modem.)

It's a known issue with Mobile Odin. For whatever reason when flashing modems for a CDMA phone the change doesn't stick. Chainfire is currently working on a fix for it.
In the meantime the work around is to flash through recovery.
Here's the FD05 on a zip format for you.

I believe the only way to get the kernel is to flash the actual rom itself. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

As of yet I have not come across the FD05 kernel alone. I myself am running straight FD02 kernel and modem. I was running the FD05 modem but it was giving me issues so I went back to FD02.
Sorry!

You can just use Auto Root (includes all the kernels) or Mobile ODIN to install any kernel version.

No you will have to root install EL29 with SFHubs one click method here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429243
Then you can install CWM and finally the GB rom! :cyclops:

Thanks for the help people.
It took a few hours of trial and error but for those who want to know, here's how you install a GB ROM (in my case Calk v2.9.2) from a stock unrooted ICS ff18:
- download the el29 Odin file here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1433101 (make sure all drivers are downloaded and installed)
- Run Odin el29 (this will get our ICS ff18 back to GB el29 BUT your phone will be glitchy. Do a factory reset and the phone should start up and function correctly).
- Now, install CWM for el29.
- In CWM install your ROM. In my case I installed Calks v2.9.2 so i had to download and run his "wipe all", (I forgot to do this the first time and it I got stuck on the galaxy boot logo), then install ROM.

Thank you for the info..
With all the crappy ICS FF18 bugs/battery/scroll issues, I'm on edge about going back to GB.... I would get a day and 1/2 easy with Calk 3.0.. even with ICS Blu Kuban i dont get a whole day.. (yes using RC1 kernel)...
Only thing I really like about ICS, is I can install S-Voice Other than that, GB did all i need.....

Going back to rooted stock jellybean ROM from CM10.1

I wish to return to a rooted stock JB ROM from CM10.1 . CM10.1 is too buggy for me, and CM10 had one bluetooth bug in the final release that was kind of a game killer for me. I'd like to go back to stock JB but keep my custom recovery. The only files I've found for stock jellybean are full stock in that they'll flash over my recovery as well as my system. Does anyone know where I can find a root stock image that will let me flash just the system and keep my recovery like any other rom, so that I can flash back to CM10.1 when it is more stable. PS I am also on Linux and do not regularly have access to a windows machine so I do not have access to Odin, or Kies.

after you flash to stock just flash a recovery, that's what i've done.
also, this is the wrong section and you should search first.
sent from my I747

I searched and found only "One click" stock roms, and the "Fully Stock" roms. Neither of which solve my problem. Did you even read the portion of my post where I say I don't have access to Odin, or Kies or any of that? My only option for flashing is CWM. And I'm not sure how well overwritting CWM while CWM is flashing would work, but I don't think it would go well.

find a cwm flashable zip of a stock rom. it doesn't need to be a current version. flash that. then find the cwm flashable ota zips and flash those. you've retained root, and cwm. i have done this process as well.
i'd link you to the threads you need but i'm on my phone and it's difficult to find this way.
edit: one of the otas is here. i haven't found anything about updating to jelly bean, though. i know there's a tutorial somewhere about making cwm flashable zips, i might try making one for you after i get my sister to sleep.

find the appropriate version for your carrier and flash via your recovery. its pre-rooted and cwm/twrp flashable, no odin or PC needed.

[Q] Can I flash a touchwiz ROM with Clockword recovery?

I have the Clockword recovery and CM 10.1 installed on my Sprint Galaxy S3 running on PagePlus
I would like to flash a Touchwiz rom. Which one can I flash using the Clockword Recovery (lightweight)?
Why is MD4 not flashable using Clockwork?
Thanks.

The official update is NOT flashable.using any custom recovery, custom meaning anything other than stock recovery.
And you can flash any Touchwiz rom with CWM recovery, as the MD4 update is not a ROM. OTAs are not full ROMs on their own, they are collection of files that patch the already existing apps to the most recent versions.
If you want to update to MD4, you simply need flash a custom ROM that is based on MD4 (check the thread titles and OPs), or you can flash freezas stock rooted MD4 ROM, not the update.

Thanks. That makes a few things clear.
Could you provide any suggestions on a Touchwiz ROM as close to the stock as possible, but preserves root of-course and does not require me to change my recovery. Thanks a lot. (I see you mentioned freezas and I'll try to find it, but just making sure).

Just to be doubly sure, here is what I do:
1) Download the file "MD4_update_FULL_Odex.zip" - The first link in the thread.
2) Place it on SDCard
3) Flash zip from SDCard using the CWM Based Recovery v5.5.0.4
The post in that thread confused me. And I did not want to mess up anything. I especially don't want to update the radio and firmware etc because I've flashed the phone to PagePlus and I'm not sure what that'll do to it.
Flashing Cyanogen any number of times in the past has had no effect.
Thanks agian.

Yes, that is correct
However, I would suggest to take this opportunity to update your recovery, as you are a full revision behind
The latest CWM can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2151476
Download that recovery zip, boot into recovery, flash the recovery.zip, then go to advanced > reboot recovery, wait a bit for.it to reboot, and then flash the MD4odexed.zip

Can I flash the system and boot .img's if I'm on UCUEMJB?
Its been a looooooong time since I've touched an S3, and happened across a pristine example to use for work. I'm pleasantly surprised to learn I can flash a custom recovery on this still.

This works 100% from NE4. Don't know about coming from another but from NE4 it works.

Just updated to NJ1 THANKS @enewman17 you really are the d2att GURU!

Question about the two zips
Flashable Rooted NJ1 system.img and boot.img is everything and root. S3 recovery is same thing just not rooted? Sorry if it is a stupid question, but I am making an emergency folder for my s3, and since i already upgraded to the NJ1 modem/bootloader, I have to be careful to flash an updated rom, right?

First, thanks for all your great work enewman!
Second, somewhere between Paranoid Android 4.45 and SlimKat 4.4.4 I lost my GPS signal too. I was on some pretty old firware, so I followed enewman's instructions in this and another thread and got my bootloader and modem all the way up to NJ1. I checked my GPS function every step of the way, but it never came back.
Then i found this thread about GPS problems over in the CM forums:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/99965-gps-issues-with-latest-nightlies/
Post #8 in the CM forum thread describes how to rebuild your NVRAM once you're in a stock AT&T ROM; appropriately enough, part of their solution links back to an older enewman post for an NE4 stock update. I followed their procedure exactly except I flashed the rooted UCUFNJ1 ROM from this thread. Once I rebuilt the NVRAM, voila GPS came back! I use an app called GPS Test that sometimes seems like it has an easier time getting a fix than others. Throughout the whole problem, it reported no satellites visible. Once NVRAM was rebuilt GPS Test sees 23 satellites and fixes in a few seconds.
Next, I restored SlimKat from a TWRP backup, and sure enough the GPS fix stuck. Now everything is working again :laugh:. I did have to have GPS Test clear AGPS data to get more than 4 satellites visible at first in SlimKat.
Hope this helps you! As always read carefully, do your research, and follow all the steps carefully. Good luck!

ODIN?
Is there an ODIN file for this? I want to update my bootloader and modem to NJ1, but I don't have a custom recovery installed due to wanting to leave my warranty bit at 0 until the warranty is up.

Anything new worth noting in this vs. earlier KitKat builds (NE4, NE6, etc)?

Did you flash the NJ1 bootloader & modem? If so then you need to backup your internal SD to a PC or ext sdcard, & (manually) wipe system, data, cache,dalvik, & internal SD in recovery (manually wipe everything but extSdcard) & then flash again. When coming from AOSP back to TW or TW to AOSP you should always do this. The data on internal SD is causing the issue! Make sure you back it up & do a 100% clean flash, you'll be surprised how fast it'll boot afterwords!! Need to be on NJ1 bootloader & modem, & never skip any when upgrading for example- MJB to NE4 to NJ1, If you skip you'll have trouble, & not the kind easy to fix!
