[Q] How do I downgrade to 4.0.4 from JB?? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Can anyone help on how to downgrade from jelly bean?
I am not rooted by the way

You should be able to use one of the images posted here to downgrade to LI3. I am not sure if you will be able to keep your data or not, but it would be worth a try.

well you don't have to be rooted. first of all you need the original ICS stock, download it from the link below. just copy and past the link in your browser. in order to use this file you need an odin as well.

Odin download link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1738841
download both files, open the odin and clik on PDA locate the first file you have downloaded, make sure you have unzip it.
get your phone in to the download mode and plug it in to your computer. Once Odin recognize your phone click Start. now wait till it finish the process and reboot.

You will lose data, btw.

I AM rooted and on jb, but I did a bad flash of a zip file like a half hour ago and my phones on an endless reboot/freezes. I want to go back stock..completely. Can I just follow the directions listed above (ie. download the file, transfer thru odin)?

[Q] is it possible to flash back to stock without PC?

The micro USB port on my phone is jacked up and I need to flash back to stock ROM,unroot and stock Android recovery so I can get a replacement . Is there a way to do it? My PC dosent recognize the phone when its plugged in. currently im running
EL 26 modem
EK02 kernel
Build Number Gingerbread EK02
Cwm recovery
Maybe MobileODIN?
(sorry, @ work, can't take the time to search n link here for you)
I would guess off the top of my head that M-odin and something from sfhub would do this?
Seeing as I've never used it, I am sure someone could clarify and/or say I'm full of ****e. ;-)
Sent from my calculator watch.
Yeah downloading the stock.tar to your phone and using Mobile Odin works great, just make sure that you don't have inject superuser clicked if you want to return it.
it looks everything needs to be done with CWM (rogue) or mobile odin.
Search the forum first to find the unrooted stock rom, modem and kernel.
Also, remove the odin count if it's non zero (if don't know, search 'triangle away').
If everything is downloaded on your phone or pc (you can connect your pc using es file explorer and move the file to your phone), be sure that kernel is applied at the very last moment.
The steps would be,
1. install zip file from sdcard - if you have a zip file which everything is on one zip, then you are just good to go.
2. Separate zip file - rom or modem first and kernel last within the same recovery session (without reboot)
If you use the mobile odin, everything should be done at the same time but I do not recommend this method because sometimes, the mobile odin misses some component and it could be a reason of phone bricked.

That's the reason why I'm recommending the 'triangle away'. This works without usb jig. If you odin count is bigger than zero, only use it. Flashing thru zip file does not increase the odin count.

Ya. I also spent about an hour to find the zip or tar file but no luck yet.

I tried to find zip file but only rooted zip files exist. So, only one way would be using mobile odin.
Ok im downloading that now .So let me get this right,I unzip that file then open mobile Odin .scroll down a bit hit open Open file...select that file that is now unziped . Does that soind right so far??

Sounds right:
This is below is all from sfhub he wrote instructions on his latest oneclick for using mobile odin:
Get the Full restore for EL29 here

FC15 here:
To install One-Clicks from the PHONE with out PC using Mobile Odin:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551901
"Android - Install ZArchiver, then use it to unpack the ODIN OneClick 7zip self-extractor file in this section (long press *-oc-sfx.exe, Open as archive, Odin-OC, select *-OneClick.exe, Extract). Use Mobile ODIN to Open File the resulting *-OneClick.exe file. Mobile ODIN issue - modem might not flash consistently. Skip the remaining instructions that are windows ODIN specific (steps 3, 4, 5, 6)."
Ok so theese are one click files and I can use then with mobile Odin corrrect? Then the file that I asked you about earlier should work am I correct?

I don't know, I think you'd be fine with the EL29 too. I make sure I use the links from sfhub to get to stock. I can vouch for those - Bone Stock, Odin Count to Zero and no Triangle. That guys deserves loads of thanks for saving many an ass, mine included. And his instructions are dead simple and right on. Just take some time and read, read and then read again before you do anything. Then you should be OK.

The oc-sfx.exe files are actually 7zip self-extractors. When you double-click on them, they decompress the actual OneClick.exe file. Think of oc-sfx.exe as a zip file. You wouldn't feed a zip file directly to Mobile ODIN. You would unpack the zip file first, then give the file to Mobile ODIN. You can either unpack the oc-sfx.exe file on windows by double-clicking on it, or on your phone by using ZArchiver from the market.
Once you have extracted/decompressed the OneClick.exe file, feed that to Mobile ODIN.
Sorry for any confusion, but if I left these uncompressed, the files (and downloads) would be twice what they are now.

Yeah , I was really confused because I didnt know his oneclick.exe files can be used also with mobile odin,AND lol mostly cause for some reason I STILL tried opening it from mobile Odin but it wouldnt accept the file ,but thats because I unzipped it with Androzip. its what I already had on my phone and I thought it would do the job. Once I used Zarchive to unzip the one click.exe it DOES recognize the file! Now im just waiting for it to charge a lil
The man is pretty awesome n so helpful ! Its funny cause when I used his one click method months ago it was so easy. Just this time I cant do it thru a USB with PC

Torrent for ICS Leak

Here is the torrent that is being shared to ease the original link. Created by carrett. This is an 727 skyrocket leak so autorotation will be off
Thanks and fast. Lets root this, can we Odin cwm?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
INSTRUCTIONS FOR ICS FLASHING ARE.
1. DOWNLOAD ODIN AND MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOUR USB CABLE WITH YOU FOR DOING THIS. ONCE DOWNLOADED ODIN THEN UNZIP AND SAVE IT ON DESKTOP, NOW GO AHEAD OPEN ODIN.
2. MAKE SURE THERE IS NO CHECKMARK ON RE-PARTITION
3. CLICK ON PHONE AND FIND THE FILE IF ITS ZIPPED THEN UNZIP IT.
4. GO INTO DOWNLOAD MODE BY TURNING THE PHONE OFF AND THEN POWER + VOLUME DOWN BUTTON PRESSSED. THAT'LL TAKE YOU TO DOWNLOAD MODE.
5. ONCE IN DOWNLOAD MODE GO BACK TO YOUR COMPUTER AND PRESS START AND LET IT FLASH DON'T PULL YOUR PLUG AND LET THE PHONE RESTART BY ITSELF. ONCE DONE..
YOU'VE JUST FLASHED ICS WITHOUT "ROOT" AT THIS MOMENT..
SHOULD YOU WANNA GO BACK TO GB THEN YOU NEED TO FIND A STOCK 2.3.5 .TAR .ZIP FILE WHICH WE HAVE ON TOP PINNED WITH AT&T AND ROGERS STOCK . JUST FLASH THAT VIA ODIN AGAIN SAME PROCEDURE WAY AND YOU'RE GOOD AND BACK ON 2.3.5.
ALSO AS POSTED BY SOLICE . PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP OF INTERNAL SD CARD IT WIPES IT. THANKS

Great, Problems after JB update!

Got my JB update today, I was rooted stock before, and the install went fine without any problems.
After the update, my Quadrant score went down dramatically, from 4500 (stock rooted ICS) to 3700 JB.
So I did a factory reset and all hell breaks loose. I dont seem to have 4G anymore, although the 4G signs is showing on the top. Play store, Maps, Navigations, etc wont load (maybe since I dont internet it wont load?). After noticing all these problems, I did another factory reset.
And now I cant even sign in to Google.
Seriously, I never thought an OTA upgrade would mess up my phone.
Can anyone shine a light my way?
Thanks.
I had a similar problem with the OTA LH2 on a rooted stock ICS , I couldn't connect WIFI, a lot of apps weren't working properly. After 4-5 factory resets, still no go. My only option was to use ODIN and reinstall the complete firmware that way, and all was back to normal. Im pretty sure this happened because of OTA over a rooted device. Worth a try I think.. Good luck.
Odin the update like above then enter recovery and wipe again, sucks you got a messed up download.

Unzip the odin file, turn the device off, holding volume down, home button and then the power button, the phone should go into download mode, start odin up, connect the phone via usb, hit the pda option, then browse to the file you downloaded and unzipped, the md5 file should be the only file showing up, select it and hit start.
Phone will auto restart upon completion.

Ok, I downloaded the *.7z file, extracted, flash it through ODIN and get my wifi to work, and my 4g to work for a brief moment.
Then my 4g stopped working again, and i notice that when i go to Status option in the setting, my device is listed as Modified, whereas for a few minutes after i flashed, it was listed as Normal.
When my device was listed as Normal, my 4g would work, then it switched itself to Modified and it seems that Samsung or Tmo locked my device.
Ugh, I am so bummed!
Modified ststus is jusy becsuse your rooted. It goes away if you revert.
It shouldnt have any bearing on your data though.

I am on stock ICS (Android version 4.0.4)
My baseband version is T999UVLEM
I rooted my phone when I got it at launch, and then put off all the incremental updates until official JB was released for Tmobile. Now that it's released, I'd like to update to. What is the proper way for me to do this? Flash through odin I assume? Will I still be able to keep my root or root the device after JB is installed?
Thanks in advance, I just don't want a nightmare situation like the OP if I flash incorrectly

Thanks for that, it pretty much covers all of my questions.
One that I'm still wondering about though, is can I go straight from rooted UVALEM to the latest JB firmware? Or do I flash back to stock UVALEM and THEN flash JB? Or do I need to flash each incremental update before finally finishing off with JB?

Or they can use the regular firmware file, flash it via mobile odin which roots it for ya, without the hassle and is much faster, I used it so I can say clearly it did an excellent job.
Note: if hotfile is too slow and there are no alternatives, I can upload the full firmware odin file to dev-host for everyone.

I always use mobile odin pro. My favorite app! But not everyone wants to pay for it and the free version doesnt have EverRoot.
I usually recommend it, but too many people were updating today so I wanted to stick with what everyone should be willing to do!
Ive already got the stock fw hosted from my account if that helps.
Was one of the first things I did after release. Check the firmware thread in my sig for that Plus more!

how do i flash a zip file rom on download mode?? lost
Do you not have a cable to connect the phone to the computer ?
If not, perhaps you should buy one (they are cheap) before continuing on. I know you can transfer files without one, but it's really invaluable and I wouldn't start messing around in my phone without it in case something like this happened.
Do you have an SD card in the phone now ? Do you have an adapter or something ?

You don't flash zips in odin. Flash the fw .tar.md5 file.

Yes. Use Odin to install root66 from docs sticky thread in android development.

Yes just follow the directions step-by-step using the root66_TMO_T999UVDLJA.7z file for T-mobile. Do NOT SKIP any steps. Also to note, after you flash, you will be on a completely stock rom but WITH root (rooted).

Well, the fw is just short for firmware. Not part of the file name.
Basically you download the version you want, UVDLJA for jb, UVALJ4 is the latest ics.
If you want pure stock, get the regular firmware. If you want root, use the root66 version. (Root66 is identical to stock fw but is pre-rooted).
Flash whichever one you choose and you will be fully stock.
If you go to the firmware thread in my sig you will find all available firmwares, regular and root66 (ignore the ota files).
In post 2 of the thread you will find Odin, Drivers and instructions. Look for the Odin Instructions, not Mobile Odin.
If you alreadyhave kies or drivrrs installed, don't reinstall them unless you're having problems.
Good luck! Ill try to keep popping in to see if you have any more questions.

Or use mrRobonsons thread. Whichever is easier.
Some get confused, but use 7zip to extract the root66 firmware.
Tbe file you flash in odin will have the extension: .tar.md5

@OP, make sure that you are reading and listening to what people are telling you. Everyone that posted in this thread has been in the same place as you and has recovered from it. Maybe gove a little bit more info. We all know Panic Mode when we see it, so just try to be clear and concise as you can.

Go to firmwares.
Download the one for your phone.
Boot into download. Flash with odin.
The file u downlaoded is to be flashed via cwm or twrp. Not via odin. It will be a zip file. Flash the whole zip together.

Can you get into twrp recovery? If so just put any rom on your phone and then flash it. Just don't wipe where you have your rom stored

the link you posted has two kernals for the i317 whats the difference? and where in odin does the kernal go? thanks again guys your all awesome
Have you gotten back into twrp recovery yet?
If youre stuck in a bootloop which it sounds like...hold volume up home button and power until device turns off and once you see samsung logo let go.
Did you make a back up before you flashed? If so restore it and youll be fine. If not then you need to remember this...always always make a backup. Every thread on here says make a backup before you flash.
And btw I dont hate noobs. We all were at one point and I remember how stressful it can be when you're unsure of what youre doing amd think youve bricked. Pm me if you need help. As long as either you can get into recover via the method I said above or alternative method is plug you phone in your pc, open up cmd prompt in then folder you put all your android root files. (Hold shift and right click in a blank space in the folder, then go to open command propmpt here. Then type in:
adb reboot recovery
That will also get you in recovery.

The "m" is the Canadian version...flash the kernel in pda I believe. .
A good kernal that I love is by dev ptmr3
Called : sabre kernal
Theres lots out there but its my favorite
In fact I love all his work. Im using it right now
