How can I tell what version ROMs are? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I'm trying to find 4.2.1 ROMs to flash, but having a hard time telling which ROMs are 4.2 unless it says it in the thread title. Is that the only way to really tell? I tried Google but I don't want to download something not for sprint. Any advice?

Read the entire op. It will say based on for example LJ7 which is sprints latest official version of 4.1.1.

Like what he said; it's in the title of the thread / OP.
Though if you're looking for 4.2.x, they'll be only AOSP roms as of now. And please only flash sprint roms.

Try the sprint sg3 original development thread. And check out the 4.2.1 slim ROM. You'll like it!

I was just looking at that one and considering it. Think I will! Thanks everyone. To update my prl, radio I need to flash back to stock and unroot right? Not sure if I need to do that or not..

You don't need to unroot, you just need to be on a TW rom for prl and profile update. To update modems(radios) just find a zip you can flash in recovery.

Radio options??!???

I'm coming from cm10 and I'm going to flash zedomaxs high on android rom and I read I needed a stock modem to go along with it since it's basically a stock rom and there's so many which do I chose since coming from cm10??? Any help appreciated

Actually its not the modem. Those should work with any of the roms here. You are thinking of the kernel I believe. Theres only a few to choose from and it boils down to preference.
If you are going to the UVALH2 update or later, you will need a purely stock kernel. Custom ones aren't working yet.

yes it is, but i was referring to the radio that comes with it and the 4.0.4 in the dev thread was the koodo base no? shouldn't this be the tmobile one? they're not all the same. but ehh.... tmobile base usually sucks anyways.
Yes you are right the baseband is new as well and it is UVLH1 the kernel version is 3.0.8 I guess I will give this a try for a week completly stock then back to good old AOKP. I just like trying the stock stuff. I gotta say I was very impresed with the first version of ICS that we got. I didnt even root it or anything till AOKP was official for the t989. I got super good battery life and everything was stable so lets see if this update holds up. Good job samsung.
Blech. Kies fail.

Is Isis finally here? Can we finally start paying for things with our phones' NFC?
Hi all,
I found this firmware at sammobile.
Please find it by the link below.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=SGH-T989&pcode=TMB&os=1&type=1#firmware
I am not sure if I posted at the right place.
Just tell me if I posted wrong and I will remove it.
Enjoy...
I already got the uvlh1 system folder with the apps, libs, build prop, and etc and also the .tar. I took the radio and made a flashable zip of it its in the dev section. I tryed to upload it on dropbox but it said the file is too large. Which is the best file sharing site so i can upload the large files so i can post it here ? But i guess the devs already has it.

Looks like the real deal.
just updated from stock rooted and i've noticed that the notification bar's clock is slightly larger, the wifi calling icon has changed, the power bar in the notification bar have also changed and seem faster at starting bluetoot, wifi settings. and i can confirm that the change is 4.0.4
I couldn't find a change log on the site anywhere. Anyone else?

Umm... how? I don't think it's possible. Apparently you know a way but don't want to share? Also, iv wouldn't count on EVER getting good speeds in your basement. The bands TMo uses aren't meant for it.
I don't think you can
Of course you can flash radios. Why wouldn't you be able to?
Assuming, of course, you know what you're doing..
As long as you have a T999 model, you can flash any of the radios released in the dev section. Any radio on any rom. some work better than others but everyone has a different best one. Its up to you to test them all for yourself.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
ddont know if this applies... but i used to flash radios, through my galaxy S (first generation), usually through odin, or a zip file and cwm... not sure how it would work for the gs3, but pretty sure itd still apply, if any method is best, probably through cwm as that shouldn't (in theory) affect your flash counter
Correct, though I personally recommend twrp. Just read the ops for any of the many released modems in dev section for more info.

[Q] SGH-i747 (at&t us variant) which rom is safe

i am curious about the roms that i can use with my s3,
like i was thinking about CM10 or something like slim bean
i like both of the two i am not sure which one i can flash, like the slim bean because its light, but i have always liked CM10 lol.
So i am looking for some opinions on both if i can get them would be appreciated, but i like their are people who have tapatalk that says sent from sgh-i747 but i am not sure if their are running roms or not so i need some help on this situation. I am really stumped so anyone can you please help me and feel free to pm me if you have too.
Any of the ROMs in Android Development and Original Development are safe to flash once you have a recovery installed. Make sure you have CWM 5.8, 6.0 or TWRP 2.2 installed or you won't be able to flash the ROMs. Just pick whatever you like most.

Yes, there is a thread for it in development. It should be posted in the thread labelled directory. Make a nandroid too.

Older stock roms?

Here's the situation, I've been looking for the older stock roms either 4.0.4 or 4.1.1 so I can get my msl.
I've exhausted the options out there for getting it with the apps, terminal, adb and so on, so I'm looking for a stock old rom in hopes ill get the msl, I've found links here and there but there all broken or updated with 4.1.2
Also think redrums lean 4.0.4 would give the msl?
Thanks.
