Hey guys, just bought this phone off craigslist today to upgrade from my LG Revolution. I've used roms with the Revo so I'm not a total stranger. I'm wondering how to upgrade to 4.2.1, my phone doesn't seem to get the OTA update, I downloaded the zip to flash and after I flashed it in CWM it the version didn't change under my system info.
I have the verizon version. thanks!
The OTA isn't out for the Toro, the Verizon version. I think you need to do a little reading before you accidentally damage your new phone flashing something not intended for it.

Yea, I haven't started flashing any roms yet, just trying to figure out what I need to be doing/cant' do
whats the latest version thats out and how do I get it?
Latest for toro is 4.1.2. You can flash a rooted stock version or try to get the OTA notification to show up.

the answer here is... there's no point.

Google has released the 4.2.1 binaries, so now every ROM baker and their brother can put out 4.2.1 ROMs; but. . . Verizon hasn't done it yet. Their latest official GNex ROM is 4.1.1 (so there's no point in looking for an OTA update).

Ah..so I technically should be able to flash those roms and be fine even though I'm on 4.1.1?
Has anyone managed to get wifi tether working on a Galaxy Nexus with 4.2.2? Since the latest update (I'm running Verizon's version), wifi tether stopped working again. I was running treve's 3.2 pre version which worked on 4.1 but not anymore. I've tried tweaking the different settings on the 11_22 mod but to no avail.
Any tips???

Take a look here:

It seems they changed something and the code will need to be updated.

This addition by mwalt did the job for me. For info purposes, I'm on a VZW GNex running mwalt's ROM (also on the same page). Don't know if this will work on any other ROM, but I'd guess that the closer to stock, the better the chance.

Thanks. I'm just waiting to hear if it will work on the stock 4.2.2 ROM.
Oh, BTW, I think the current thread for mwalt2's 4.2.2 ROM is located HERE. The Two threads linked above are for the 4.1.1 ROM.

Had to set device profile manually.
I recently updated to 4.1.2 on my bell-bought S3. I've also recently bought out my contract and switched to Koodo (as all you should as well, seriously). I now have the famous android os/system using ridiculous amounts of battery issue, so I was going to factory reset. I see SamMobile has one 4.1.2 firmware for the phone that just says Canada with no carrier next to it, can I use that on my phone and just have touchwiz and none of the bell apps that I dont need anymore? I'd go custom but I frequently use allshare.

All i747M and i747 are carrier specific. Only the unlocked i9300 (which sfotware you can't use) has non carrier specific software.
Will allshare not work at all if you are rooted ?

Oh it'll work on root, just not if I switch to a custom ROM not based on the stock firmware, which is most of them. I've since started using nova launcher to appease my visual customization needs, although still lacking the ability to change the notifications bar.

Why not use a rom based on stock firmware ? Dandroid is a good option and I think he has the blandroid one was well that practially stock.

I'm not sure if allshare is in there or not but you could always just download the stock rooted 4.1.2 and pull it from there. Not many guys doing Canadian rom's anymore except Dan

Strat has been busy. Among other things, he has been helping in getting the leaked 4.3 usable. Intergalatic4.0 will come in due time.

Good deal - I'm anxious to go to Android 4.3, but I really like Intergalactic, so I think I'll wait for that.
You should try loserskaters Rom. It's pretty good, and as mentioned, Strat has been working with loser to get it running

+1 on 4.3. As good as 3.0 is, no reason not to try loserskater's rom. For a stock leak, it's real nice. A couple of more days of running it, and I'll put it on the wife's S3.

there are 4.3 leaks for the AT&T I747 S3 but they have so much bugs, issues and problems that is not worth upgrading since at&t is releasing the official 4.3 on November 11 if am correct, i would advice you to stay on 4.1.2
plus i heard that DATA does not work

Not necessarily true. I ran the leaked version with no issues what so ever. Everything worked as it should have.

Its great to know that it works for some people with no problems but I have too much variable things to lose, so I would rather hang in there with 4.1.2 for the time being.
The second at&t releases the 4.3 update am in, plus pretty much wait for some tweaked, debloated rom for stock touchwiz 4.3
Good for you that it works
there is a stock debloated ROM now....

If you're the i747m model you'll run into issues with your modems. (No modem support for Canadian devices)
But if you have a i747 you'll be fine. Just flash the modems that are in the thread for the leaked 4.3 version.

Sir I updated my galaxy s3 i747 with leaked firmware 4.3 with no knox.
It has unrooted my phone.
When I try to root my phone again.
I cannot root it.
And im having a battery problem.
It drains very fast.
Which ROM did you flash? You have the s3 from AT&T?

I've never seen an official AT&T stock 4.3 ROM. I know AT&T released 4.3 as an OTA update but don't think they released a full ROM.

Aren't those are re-packaged ROMs rather than being a complete 4.3 ROM similar to Rogers/Bell/Telus ROMs? To install, you have to Odin back to a stock rom or TW-based ROM.

am sure there is an official firmware from at&t and its hidden in this threads or somewhere on the net plus i was on a 4.1.2 stock, i dont like leaks just the official cleaned out so i did not have any problems with bootloaders/updating etc....... did not bother to use odin just flashed with CMW and everything worked
edit: devs need the official firmware from AT&T to work on , without it they have nothing (assuming you already know that)

AT&T did not release an official Odin tar for 4.1.2 or 4.3 it would be great if they did but they haven't and don't have any plans to do so.
Even without the tar files I think our developers have done a great job.

Agreed. The devs worked directly from the OTA. They never had the official firmware, as they all will tell you. You're not going to find it here or anywhere on the net.

I understand the devs had to re-create the ROM. My point was that these aren't stock, but they are certainly good to have around

AT&T released official for 4.1.2 , dont know what happned with 4.3 but blame Samsung cuz after 4.1.1 S3's update, updates went down from there ........4.1.2 update was great, 4.3 being a WTF and no 4.2.2 .........but am optimistic that 4.4 is coming for S3's and never will CM/AOKP/PARANOID roms forsake the S3 it will have 5+ versions

So since you allege AT&T released official firmware for 4.1.2(some other way than OTA) obviously my search skills aren't what they should be. Can you provide a link to backup your allegations?
Whether or not we get updates has little to do with Samsung and more to do with the service provider, and it is the service provider whom determines if we get an official copy released.
My thought is that AT&T is attempting to discourage us from customizing our devices. Some people have no business customizing anything and that can cause them to attempt to return their device under warranty. When the owner was the cause of the device failure that costs the provider money...

Btw I want to apologize to the OP here is a link to some roms that are pre rooted they're very close to stock with only minor differences mostly in its capabilities and some are debloated. These will get you rooted for sure, remove knox and should do what you want. I like the one from loserskater. This link below works only on the AT&T SGH-I747.
