[Q] Straight Talk S3 - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I will be receiving the straight talk s3 (which runs off sprint) tomorrow and I was wondering will it be okay if I flash the MD4 rom on it or would it brick it.

Spc-s960l st
BUMP..... I also have this phone and wondering the same thing. I recently had the SII for Virgin Mobile, and used to run Sprint firmware on it, I guess this falls under same category. The Sprint L710 model also has the same build number as ours.

Yeap I have the Galaxy s2 on boost mobile running sprint firmware and everything is smooth

I know the root method for sprint phones work, I just did that myself and now I have custom recovery installed and rooted. If you do that, you can make a backup and then try to install a sprint firmware

Perfect thanks

if you do that method let me know how it works, and youre welcome. Try the cyanogen rom, I know you will have to edit the update script in the rom to allow installation or the rom wont install because of of different phone versions

[Q] How To Update Rooted S3?

Take a look in the android dev sections to this forum. If you ever update once rooted, you should be flashing a new ROM (clean or dirty flashing) to receive the next update. Running stock ROM in between a Sammy update and while having the older ROM without the newest update will yield that result.

There are plenty of reasons for rooting but remaining stock (such as: tethering, Droid wall, Titanium Backup to allow me to backup and restore app data, removing bloat, etc).
I have flashed custom rooms in the past on my Evo but right now I am happy with my S3 at stock.

I was in the same boat at you. I put it off for a while but finally decided to update tonight. I followed the steps posted here.
You can update your baseband by flashing a properly packaged official baseband zip, or flash from recovery tool (my preference), like the one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29820376. There are also unofficial, or leaked basebands, available to flash from all-in-one zips, such as the one here: http://goo.im/devs/freeza/Galaxy-S-fre3-LIGFirmwareModemAIO.zip.
As far as the build version goes, that does not have to match your baseband (modem). Most of the ICS ROMs are LG8, although there are some LI3 ICS ROMs to choose from. There's also a leaked build of Jellybean, builds LIF & LIG, with a third leak LIH reportedly coming out tomorrow. Once rooted, you can update your build version by flashing the ROM of your choice, based upon the build of your choice.
One of the top developers, and probably the greatest asset to this community, is freeza. He explained the difference very well here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32095775
That's a long-winded response, but I hope it answered your original question, and helps you out.
Have fun!
Edit: Once you're rooted, you'll still receive OTA update notifications, which will continually annoy you until you choose to update and reboot. Once you reboot, the update will fail because of your custom recovery (you will NOT lose root) and the notification will go away....until the next OTA...

Excuse me for my stupidity but I'm new to android. I'm also using the sprint variant of the s3 and have it rooted with stock rom. However my build number is IMM76D.L710VPALF9. I'm assuming the last 3 are the update versions. What is the current version and how do I update to it?
Also, I'm rooted with Clockwork mod 5.5.0.4. How do I upgrade this to version 6.0.1.2? Will I have to unroot then root again?
Thanks for clearing anything you can up. Don't mean to pirate the OP but I figured I'd post in this thread rather than make a new one. Thanks again.

That is one of the reasons that I am rooted... so I can use WiFi Tether. I do not it much. Hardly any data at all. But when I am in a spot and need a wireless connection and I only have my phone it comes in handy.
Some other reasons:
- DroidWall: Lets me block individual apps from accessing the internet.
- AddFree: Block ads in some apps.
why would you do that?

[Q] CWM for I747M?

Quick question for you all, I was looking at rooting my phone, and been doing lots and lots of reading and saw that if I want to flash a ROM, I need to install CWM once I've rooted my phone in order to load any ROM's on it or anything really...
My question is, I have the Canadian Version of the GS3, the I747M, and found that it's a bit complicated to install on the phone? Is this true? There seems to be mixed reviews on this...
Saw that its version 6.0.1.2 and 6.0.1.4 for Touch for the Samsung Galaxy S3 (AT&T) I747. Can I just follow these steps:
http://galaxys3root.com/galaxy-s3-tutorials/how-to-install-clockworkmodcwm-recovery-on-galaxy-s3/
and load this CWM (for AT&T) being its not exactly the same as the Canadian phone? Is there something special I need to do to load 6.0.1.2 onto my I747M phone without any problems? I'm assuming that using the CWM for AT&T(I747) on Bell (I747M) shouldn't be any different? Correct?
Thanks

Thanks,

sorry, when I read the thread I linked IMO it does answer your question: CWM is the same for ATT as Bell.
The thread details how to root and install CWM using Odin. You can after installing CWM 5.4.5 then use CWM to flash the 6.01.2 zip posted in the developer's thread or the touch version within CWM.
Once installed, its easy to update CWM -- the issue is the initial install.
Yes, there are many ways to approach this: rule one of offering advice though is only to offer advice based on personal experience of what does or does not work -- I gave you answer based on what I know to be safe, reliable and usable from direct experience.
Perhaps others will assist differently. The post you linked to is not an xda thread: you asked and I suggested an xda thread related for which assistance exists on xda.

This, that's what I wanted to know... so I need to install CWM 5.4.5 first on my phone? That's where I find it confusing, your thread is none the less great, I used it to root my Bell phone actually, but it's the CWM that I dont want any troubles with and find it confusing...
So having said that, which version do I install on my GS3 first so I dont have any issues during the inital install?
Thanks,
JP
I installed 6.0.1.4 and had problem with backup so I am using older version 5.8.4.5, work fine.

I would use TWRP, you can easily flash it once youre rooted using "Goo Manager" from the market. I much prefer it over CWM.

You could also use Mobile Odin. I have flashed numerous times using Mobile Odin and all have been succesful. This is a great tool.

[TUTORIAL] How To Root the Sprint Galaxy S2 (SPH-D710)

I was recently asked to post some threads here on XDA with the tutorials I have on my site. As time permits I will be posting a series of threads here to the Q&A section that will hopefully answer most questions that might come up.
If you can't find your answer in one of my threads I would highly recommend BluesRulez One Stop FAQ Thread. It is an awesome resource and has answers to just about every question I've seen come up!
__________________
This thread details the process of how to root your device without having to flash a full stock ROM. This method works for the Sprint, Boost and Virgin Samsung Galaxy S2 (SPH-D710, SPH-D710BST and SPH-D710VMUB).
This method uses an Odin One-Click Kernel to install a kernel that includes a Custom Recovery. Once booted into the Custom Recovery you can then flash Superuser which will root your phone and give you Superuser access.
Prerequisites:
A PC running Windows with the Samsung Mobile Drivers Installed. The Samsung Mobile Drivers are available here.
Any One-Click Kernel (preferably from the Android version you will be using, i.e. GB, ICS or JB).
All Sprint One-Click Recovery kernels can be found here.
For this particular tutorial I used the following kernels:
Gingerbread: Chris41g's EL26 Stock CWM5 Repack
Ice Cream Sandwich: Agat63's tFI27 Stock Recovery Repack (rev 2)
Jelly Bean: Agat63's Source-Built GB27 Recovery​
Superuser (or SuperSU, MIUI Security, and etc) in a flashable zip, saved on your Internal or External SD Card.  For this method I used SuperSU v1.25 (but any SU in a flashable ZIP should work). You can download several different versions here.
Although not required it is recommended that you have Samsung Kies installed on your PC as well. You can download Samsung Kies here.
Side-Effects:
This method will trigger the Yellow Triangle upon start-up and will increase your Odin count.
It will also change your startup screen to look like the International GS2 startup screen.
Both of these side-effects are very easy to overcome due to the hard work of Chainfire and Garwynn. You can get TriangleAway from Chainfire's thread here.
For the rest of the tutorial please visit my site: www.rwilco12.com
Enjoy!

First..well 2nd to you!! Awesome work RW ..your time and dedication is GREATLY appreciated my friend!
Will any of these methods work with FL24? I'm new to rooting Samsungs and am used to simply rooting via exploits through ADB. I have the phone rooted (temp rooted?) via the exploit in Framaroot and am trying to get a custom recovery installed next to flash a ROM. Thanks!

The Kernel One-Click flashes the kernel and recovery together. They are combined on the E4GT.

You might have to turn SU on depending on which version you flashed. Open the app and see if under settings you see something like "Enable SuperUser" and make sure it's enabled.
If that doesn't fix it we may need to try another zip with a different set of symlinks. Either way, we're here for you and will get you squared away.

If you're asking - Can I flash VM builds on the Sprint D710, the answer is - yes. Did it when I tested the builds and everything worked properly.
If you're asking - Can I flash a VM build and be on VM service? Obviously you'll need to be activated to their service and provisioned properly. That's when you'd need to make sure that mmsc/apn/nv data is captured. I don't know if VM is a byod provider. (write that shiz down)

Yes. Many, many people have used this method successfully.
There's nothing wrong with a stock kernel, it just doesn't have a custom recovery packed into it or any kernel tweaks.
But I am confused... If you're already rooted why are you pulling your hair out?

K. Before you dive in too much further I would recommend doing a little more research. This device had had issues in the past that have made it very easy to brick. You should be very careful.
As a side note - This thread is a how to root thread but it sounds like you're already rooted. I don't know that there's any reason to reroot your device. You don't actually have to be rooted to get on JB either. You could just flash a one-click of a JB ROM.

[Q] Wireless Tethering and sim unlocking

Hi guys,
Today I brought a new T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S II for cheap. It already got stock JB rom 4.1.2 installed and I rooted the phone. I have 2 questions.
1) I would like to sim unlock the phone without calling t-mobile if possible. I tried checked out Galaxy_s unlock by helroz and there was one other app, but it would not allow me to install it. Anybody got any ideas how to do it?
2) I would like to have this stock JB rom if possible rooted of course, but I would like to set up wireless tethering and don't pay extra to t-mobile for doing it? Thanks.

I think the file in that link is for Odin. You should be able to TWRP flash any of the ICS ROMs in the development thread and then flash the UVLE1 radio.

you'll need to change the 7z to tar gz and use heimdall, Frankly why not just flash existing roms in development sections with the new boot loader and modem if youre just looking to check it out?
try a search first. just posting and in doing it wrong place rubs some up the wrong way
I did install it finally It's very fast smooth and beautiful but i found one bug... it doesn't let me set up my data access point so im.not getting internet and no mms this is sucks

If you actually did some reading you would have known that you needed to also flash the new modem for data.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app

I flashed same rom. you need to also flash modem as well for 4g/mms
My ONLY problem left is no stock MAIL icon. I'm not sure if this was taken out on purpose. I prefer to use the original mail app.
SuperSU was also broken but they have a fix. let me know if you have of those problems too.

It says on page: YOU MUST FLASH THE I747UCUEMJ2 MODEM FOR AT&T GALAXY S III IN ORDER FOR DATA TO WORK; OTHERWISE YOU WILL NOT HAVE DATA
I am not allowed to post links yet so here is the text version with some spaces
Link to modem file = androidfilehost.com /?fid= 23196940996968656
They have link on page as well. You flash that file, same way you flash ROM. It will update modem firmware to work with 4.3
Let me know if you have the native MAIL app. I don't see it after I flashed 4.3[/B]

check out galaxy s3 root .com
you would copy a superuser.zip file to your internal phone card
You would use odin to flash a ClockworkMod Recovery file to your phone (if you don't have it)
Next you would use push the correct buttons on phone to enter ClockWork Recovery mode
Once in ClockWork you would select superuser.zip on phone to install it. All instructions are on the website I mentioned earlier
Can you tell me what exact ROM you downloaded and where you got it from / who made it?
