Yes. This is the official OTA from Sprint. If you were to go back to 100% stock unrooted LJC you would eventually get the notification that the update was ready to be installed. This skips the waiting patiently step and lets you skip right to flashing.
Once you're on LJC stock and unrooted boot to stock recovery and flash it from there.

Any instructions for installing this on stock rooted?

This could probably make this process a little easier. Full restore back to stock unrooted ljc with stock recovery in 1 flashable zip.

You need to be 100% stock. Meaning no root and also install via stock recovery.

[LEAK] SGH-I747M - I747MVLALI3 (Bell - BMC) (JB 4.1.1) OTA - 2012.09.11

This is version I747MVLALI3, as opposed to the leak from a couple days ago which was I747MVLALI2c.
Initial impression is that this one is more stable, but I haven't done too much testing yet.
Original OTA ZIP:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=SGH-I747M&pcode=BMC&os=1&type=1#firmware
Modified for easier flashing:
https://hotfile.com/.../d2can_JB_OTA_MVLALI3_keeproot.zip
> MUST be flashed over stock MVLALH1 *** NOT over the previous leaked OTA ***
> will keep your root su binary
> removed the recovery update, so the recovery will remain as whatever you currently have (CWM, etc)
> removed all patch checks so that it will flash even if you are running a modified (eg. some system apps removed) stock MVLALH1
> in other words, you could technically flash this ZIP over any ROM, but unless it's stock or modfied MVLALH1, you will probably end up with bootloops
I flashed this over rooted MVLAH1 using CWM 5.8.4.7 and it worked. Flashing using Mobile Odin should work too. Other methods, I don't know.
Don't blame me if this bricks your phone!
Can this be installed on a stock att phone? Sorry if this is a retarded question but I've been away from the game for a while.

Error code 7 is from using an incorrect version of CWM.
I used the sgs3 toolkit to flash clockworkmod recovery touch and it worked perfectly.

I'm on TWRP and using mobile Odin select open file choose the file (it will go in OTA) make sure you tick Everroot, Inject Superuser and Inject Mobile Odin.
Worked good for me after reverting to Stock V1.
Edit: Network mode have change now they are, LTE/GSM/WCDMA or GSM Only or WCDMA, I think those are the AT&T settings..How ever I show H+/LTE in the status bar.

[rom] [update] Ma6 ota update link

This is the stock 4.1.2 official sprint update MA6.
You may have to flash stock recovery to install it. Rename file update. Zip and place on the root of internal storage.
Then you have to reroot. It's claimed the voodoo app works for quick reroot.
This is a direct link to the Google servers

This is what I'm about to use. It installs all pieces of the LJ7 firmware including recovery and radio. There's a root zip you can flash afterward to keep SU access. After that, I will setup SuperSu Pro to survive OTA updates and then run the MA6 OTA through the stock recovery. If you don't have SuperSu Pro or VooDoo OTA, you can always flash TWRP through Odin, and then flash your root zip, boot and then make your backup of the stock ROM.

As long as you can preserve root, I think taking official updates is a good idea. You get the rom, you get the radio, you get any additional firmware updates, and you have a new base from which to keep your stock backup that everyone says you ought to keep. Besides, with Samsung, it's so easy to root a device. Just load Odin and flash a recovery. Flash an su.zip and boom, you're back in business. It's not like taking an update on an HTC device where you have to worry about the new boot loader (unless you had S-Off).
Hate to be *that guy* buuuut.
A.) This does not belong in the Development section. The sticky here says what belongs and what doesn't, and stock ROM patches are not custom development.
B.) This was already in the general section. No need to repost.

Don't think it will. You'll need to go back to LJ7 or just give it a few days and someone will post the full stock ROM - hopefully will all of the root/no root and wipe data/preserve data permutations.

this is gathering data for projects. im sure the rest of the devs will be upgrading their base off the new official update.
i always thought that the only 2 places for roms were in development and original dev.

Downgrading... need 4.1.1 rom. ANYONE?

Before you go to screaming at me for not searching, know that I did. I tried. For 2 weeks now. The only link that's still active is a Hotfile link which doesn't work well for me at all because it keeps giving me an incomplete download. I tried going to Scottsroms to download it and the link is dead. I need the original AT&T - Stock Rooted I317UCALJ2 or even the 4.0.4 version. Anyone with it or a link to it PLEASE help me out. :crying: I'm currently on 4.1.2 btw if that even matters.
Direct download, Zippyshare, 4shared, dropbox, torrents, those have all worked well for me so far.
Thanks people. XDA hasn't let me down yet! :fingers-crossed:
Why would you want to downgrade? And by the way there is no 4.0.4 version

Oh... I thought not. I got mine late in the curve so i didn't know. i seen a few posts mention 4.0... whatever, unimportant. lol. I want to downgrade because after reading around and stuff, I believe that AT&T quietly patched the recently discovered free method of carrier unlocking using the hidden menus in one of the later updates. AT&T is uncooperative in giving me my unlock code as I've been with them less than 6 months and given my current circumstances I really need it unlocked so i can just go prepaid with it.
Anyway to get me back on 4.1.1? Everyone seems bent on using 4.1.2 in everything and the 4.1.1 roms have all died off like the dinosaurs they are. lol. If I'm not mistaken, I317UCALJ2 is the version I need.

Flashing my modem is definitely easier than flashing my whole rom setup again. Will try that NOW. I wonder if I'll re-lock it if I flash it to a newer modem again? We'll see. I think my relationship with AT&T has hit a wall.
Update: Okay... so apparently flashing a modem isn't as easy as I thought... or I'm just pretty noobish. I keep trying to flash it from recovery but it just keeps saying "Failed".

I tried that but it just kept saying FAILED in bright red letters. (TWRP).
I downloaded zips from that modem thread mentioned earlier, downloaded the modem, and tried to flash... unsuccessfully. They were zips... but I couldn't unzip them... (Tried after they failed me).
What gives?
Tried flashing them from another recovery (Philz to be specific), another no-go... what GIVES?
Edit: Philz is feature rich... but I prefer the GUI of TWRP... not that it matters. lol.
Maybe a bad download? Cus all you should have to do is go in recovery and flash the zip.

I got it too. I notice that I can now make a Google Hangout video call over LTE.
It seems like it's running smoother now

I got it, same file size as your picture. Haven't noticed much to be different. Baseband is UCAMH3, but I don't remember what it was before, if it was different.

Anyone kind enough to make a flashable Baseband only UCAMH3 zip? I would love to try the new Baseband but I am only a Tmobile Rom.
Hopefully someone will zip it up for all of us to try out the modem and if stock rooted whatever else is in the update.

Uh no I don't believe that's the case cause it was real glitchy the days leading up to gettanding this. Messenger would freeze and fc along with Internet. Can't Judge on battery life yet but it seems about the same.
Its def smoother, as a matter of fact smoother than my s4 hopefully Samsung gets the 4.3 update right

Got the same update. My sound profiles went back to factory settings.... meh... haha more work for me to do on a Sunday

I do not know about smoothness or battery but after updating, Bluebox Security Scanner shows I am patched for both the 8219321 and the 9695860 bugs. I cannot remember which one it was but before the update I was only patched for one. Root also survived.
Just curious how the update isnt breaking root. It is breaking mine, just on stock with UCAMA4 rooted fine, grabs the update and installs and *poof*, no root
OK, maybe I'm just really really stupid (probably HAHA) but every time I've tried to DL this and the thing reboots, it reboots into TWRP, and there I'm stuck - would have thought it would have tried to install itself outside of TWRP recovery, or am I really missing some point here?
OTA update requires stock recovery to install.

I did a recovery install via Kies to get my Note 2 back to stock which removed root. I then made my phone download software updates which now has it at 4.1.2 with Baseband Version I317UCAMH3. I changed the day numerous times and tried Software Updates again but it says I am now at the most current version so I then rooted the phone again! Mine still has the ripple lockscreen as well. I'm not sure why yours disappeared!

+1 There are a number of folks posting they took the MH3 OTA update... what is being asked here is if one of you could kindly post the OTA update file (i.e., on dropbox, then share the dropbox link). In the past, ATT OTAs were stored in " /cache/fota" folder. There are folks here on XDA who can extract the kernel... extract the modem... etc from that OTA and repackage in flashable zips for the rest of the community to try (those who either cannot get the MH3 OTA to download/install... or for those who do not want to flash back to stock in order to take the MH3 OTA). Can someone who has updated to MH3 take a look (via your favorite file explorer) and see if they still have the MH3 update in /cache/fota folder? Thanks.

[OTA ZIP] OFFICIAL 4.3 update zip [HAS KNOX BOOTLOADER]

You must be on 100% stock odexed MD4 to flash this (rooted/unrooted doesn't matter)
Just posting this here for people to find it easily

What does voiding Knox mean? Boot loader flag goes from 0x0 to 0x1
Notes about Knox:
FLASHING A: CUSTOM KERNEL or CUSTOM RECOVERY on MK3 boot loader VOIDS KNOX
CANNOT DOWNGRADE TO OLDER FIRMWARE!
Composed of an OS side and firmware (bootloader-side) implementation. Apps (OS components) can be removed, but the firmware components CANNOT.
You can still root on the new firmware...but you can't flash a custom recovery or custom kernel, or else you will trip Knox
First!!!!
Damn we need a way to get rid of KNOX!!!!!!.... LOL
Thank you CNexus....Could I flash this file with custom recovery TWRP or Rooted 4.1.2 phone...or I have to return stock?

You have to be unrooted stock. It needs stock recovery. The zip is just like you taking a OTA update.

According to the great minds here, it has to be like stock, it's essentially like receiving the ota.

Then I have to download 834MB file size in order to flash 495MB file size
Is it any way to flash stock recovery and make unrooting by supersu itself?
If you already have a stock rom and recovery installed and you don't have an sd card handy, it's easy to update the zip using ADB sideload. Assuming you have used ADB before and know how to use it on your computer
Download the file and rename it something easy like "update.zip"
reboot the phone into recovery by pressing volume up, home, and power
select the option to update via ADB
plug in phone to computer with USB cable
on your computer open a terminal window and if you want to make sure the ADB connection works type "ADB devices" you should see some numbers listed followed by "sideload"
flash the file by typing "adb sideload update.zip" if you named it update.zip that is, then press enter
once it's done hit the power button to reboot
profit??
Ok I know this is a dumb question does it have to be on sd card or internal card for recovery to pick it up

if you are trying to flash it from the phone it needs to be on an external SD card.
I'm hearing rooting is not working after the update.

So, I know this is supposed to be the official update, and I flashed via adb, but KIES and SprintZone don't seem to understand that. The two screenshots show what I'm talking about. These should both say "current" or "Up to date"
Do u need to be unrooted or can I just reinstall my rooted stock ROM and do the update
rocking the 4.4

This is what Kies says for my phone. Samsung Kies doesn't know Sprint's update is available. Wait for the OTA.

I didn't use this download. I'm still on MD4. I'll wait awhile to see if anyone has issues with this dl since I'm not on Sprint. I'm using Ting for a provider.
