[Q] US cellular SGS3 4.1.1 - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I was wondering if the sprint root still works on the US cellular SCH-R530U SGS3 after applying the 4.1.1 OTA update
if so, is Qbking77's youtube video still the best way to do it?
I know im still a noob, but please bear with me, its worth asking to save a $600 phone.

Go ask the sprint section

This bites :(

How can there NOT be a leak out there for our AT&T SGS3's that is JB 4.1.1 ?????
Come on people, I know someone out there has to have something up there sleeve they're not sharing ..
PLEASE
Share with us :fingers-crossed:
It does seem odd considering there has been two leaks on sammobile for Bell but yet nothing for AT&T....
For once Canada gets something first/cheaper/better!
They probably fired the person who was "leaking" them for at&t....

Last I heard .. they have to get some sort of "permission" to release a leak !!!! Whatever the f*** that suppose to mean.
The Bell leaks work fine on AT&T phones.
I'm with you OP. Every time I check the forum I'm hoping to see a leaked thread for the att version. Hopefully soon

Yes, I think people are forgetting they are the same device. And they can always just flash their AT&T modem if they want
Just curious (and may be a stupid question, I'm new to this) , why wait for this when there are custom JB roms?

Because for some reason they think an att build would work better then a bell or Rogers one. When in reality its the same device minus the baseband and buildprop.

Are some of the at&t wifi hotspots only open to at&t users? If so I imagine that wouldn't work on a different carrier's leak (unless the certs or whatever were copied).
Whenever I ran a Canadian leak based ROM on my Skyrocket, things like Google search would default to Google.ca, which was annoying. I probably could've fixed that but never got around to it.

Yes you're correct, that issue is easily fixable. A free app from the Play Store called MoreLocale 2 would have fixed that issue in 5 seconds.
is there a link to that bell OTA? And how exactly do we install it?

[Q] New to android

Just got my note 2 for US Cellular and I want to know how to get the multiview on my phone. I'm coming from an iPhone (jailbroken). I guess my question is how to get the newest jellybean update or is there an to get multiview without updating to the newest jellybean 4.1.2? Also will I be able to do this on a Mac computer? Thanks in advance
lesson one read the sticky posts ------>http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1992947
android isn't like iPhone, sprint stuff will only work for sprint phones, just like samsung stuff will only work for samsung phones... either wait for ota update or go to the us cellular forums

Personally, I would avoid the newest "leak" update. The newest official update will come to the phone when you've had in turned on for about an hour, enables the multiview.

Virgin Mobile E4GT

Virgin Mobile's new S2 is actually just an E4GT with VM branded software. VM runs on Sprint towers, but if we flash your roms certain things won't work. I'm here to ask if any devs would be willing to help us. Our forum is on phandroid, but most of you guys are on xda. Like I said, your roms will boot but certain things (mms/4g/3g) won't work. If anyone would be willing to help us, please contact me on xda or find our forum on android forums (it's under "Samsung Galaxy S2 4G"). Thanks and merry Christmas.

I have a sprint e4gt flashed to virgin Mobile and everything on every rom works great. Need to fix apn settings for mms to work but never ran into any other problems.. Maybe it's because it's a sprint phone..

If it helps any our model number is SPH-D710VMUB. Looking forward to hearing from you guys. Also, if anyone can point a dev to this thread, that'd be great.

One thing I'm going to experiment with after activating the GN2 today is a quick flash of CSC data. The goal would be that you flash this image in Odin after a build and it will apply the correct settings.
Now keep in mind I won't be able to test beyond flashing as this phone will be deactivated. But if it works - and I should be able to see what the settings are at least - I'll put it out there for others to test.
Until then the best way to get around it is to modify the settings manually. Sprint, Boost and Virgin are the same h/w, all the issues you are experiencing are settings based only.
I'm quite curious about this... Will the Sprint rom work for this phone? Or would I lose some kind of functionality?
I'm about to recieve Virgin Mobile's S2 and I don't want to run into any kind of issues :laugh:
It will just gotta change MMS settings
Were you able to change your APN settings on a custom ROM? I'm on paranoid and its not letting me I'm trying to flash a e4gt to metro.

I think you'll have to go in and change it manually. I think the file is called apns.xml? Correct me if I'm wrong, someone.

Should just be a mmsc setting change
Sprint touchwiz doesn't have files to work with virgins mms. That's why there's no tw fix yet, only cm10. You can read more about it in one of the mms fix threads, but I can't remember which one. I'd expect it to be okay with the virgin Mobile rom sextape is going to release soon though. :fingerscrossed:

How do I update my rooted T999?

Hi
Sorry, I'm no expert in these stuffs, I know the basics.
So, I have a rooted s3, T999, running 4.1.1
Recently, I want to update my phone to get the multi windows feature, since I'm rooted, I can't.
Can someone tell me how can I update it safely, with out bricking my phone,?
I saw someone did it.
Use Odin to return to stock.

Use the search function....probably about 10+ threads showing you detailed steps on how to do this.
<hint>
the thread you need is stickied.

[Q] EEEK, Now KNOX freaking me out! Really confused.

Hi everyone!
I am a noob to XDA, however I have successfully rooted and flashed both my cricket Mercury M880, and now, much to my astonishment, my cricket galaxy s4 SCH-R970C, equipped with this KNOX monster I have just now read so much about. Out of pure ignorance, I rooted the SCH-R970C running Android 4.2.2, and proceeded to delete Bloatware. I had a vague notion of what KNOX was supposed to do, so I happily deleted that booger too. After all that, I backed up everything, then went about flashing CM 10.1. Everything works PERFECTLY. So what the heck is my problem, you may be asking, well this is it.
My mom's Sprint Galaxy s3, SPH-L710, was flashed over to Cricket. When they did this, the nice man at the Cricket store, explained that there were issues with flashed phones sending pic texts from stock messenger, so he installed another messenger from the market, and warned us not to accept any firmware updates. Then my mom, being a mom, accepted the Android 4.3 update OTA. So of course, just as we were warned, the MMS stopped working.
My initial idea for a fix was to simply root the phone, install CM 10.1, and voila! Android 4.1.2 downgraded. MMS or pic texting restored!
But first, I thought, I should check in here, and see what some threads had to say. My findings scared the crap outta me.
There were some very succinct posts relating to downgrade from an OTA 4.3 update to any other version, with respect to KNOX being there specifically to indicate if you had monkeyed with your phone. Some went on to suggest that any attempt to downgrade would hard brick your phone.
But I did. WITH factory installed KNOX. Herein lies my confusion.
1) Simplest things first. Is there another messenger app in the market anyone knows about that supports Android 4.3 and will send picture texts from my mom's Sprint SPH-L710 phone now flashed to Cricket? I saw "chomp" but SMS is in it's name and I believe MMS is the problem.
2) Failing that, If I back up, root, and just wipe everything, can't I flash CM 10.1 to mom's s3 with the same process I used on my now perfectly functioning and CM 10.1 running s4?
3) If step 2 is a viable option, should I use CM 10.1 .zip for cricket model SCH-R530, or the CM 10.1.zip for Sprint model SPH-L710. (bearing in mind it was originally a sprint phone flashed to cricket.)
4) W (exactly) TF is this KNOX deal? Like I say, I deleted this lil devil from MY s4 running 4.2.2, and proceeded to merrily jack with my phone in complete ignorance, with absolutely no consequence. ( other than voiding my warranty ). From reading most of the threads here, I should be holding a cold, lifeless droid in my hands yet, IT LIVES!
If I violated any of XDA's TOS with this post, PLEASE DON'T BAN ME. This site has been the most helpful I've come across. Just let me know my post was unacceptable. I do promise I have read a TON of previous threads, but none seemed to address my specific issues.
Secondly, if you made it this far, thank you so much for your consideration. Any advice you can provide would be gratefully appreciated.
Chomp works well for ams and mas give me a minute and I'll post screen shots of how to set it up
