I recently unlocked an S3 for a friend, I did the whole downgrade to 4.1.1 method then the *#197338640# now my question is this, if she upgrades the phone when she's on the new network back to 4.1.2 will it ruin the phone being unlocked? Thanks, first time I've ever done this.

Yes correct, but unfortunately Verizon is such an A$$ and locks the boot loaders on their devices:crying:
Good thing we don't have to deal with that crap.:fingers-crossed:
Can't we just get download and install the new update through kies instead of waiting for tmobile?

Yes for the S4, but tmobile is taking forever to release it. It's out for other companies though

Sprint just got it and theres some debate over whether it locks the bootloader. Hope thats not true. Some say it is, and others say it didnt lock it.
With knockz being part of the update I am betting it is locked boot loader and in root able kernel

But no premium suite is a bummer
Anyone know of an update coming?
Sent from my SGH-T999L using xda app-developers app
Its probably coming but who knows when.. In the meantime you can flash the t-999 4.1.2 ROMs if you just can't wait.. In my opinion I don't really like it, I prefer 4.1.1, its faster and more responsive in my experience

You could always flash a 4.2.2 rom. But like he said 4.1.1 is better in performance and battery in my opinion!
Cheers! :beer:

I agree plus it hogs a lot more battery in my experience than 4.1

Ditto. I've tried CF-Auto Root, SafeRoot and neither one puts a dent in it...
I have the AT&T S4 having the same issues as well I just found this thread, planning on trying it out tomorrow. It should link to the T-mobile version.

What I want to know is if I buy a t mobile galaxy s4 that has already been updated to 4.4.2, will I be able to root it and install cyanogenmod or other roms based on stock Android?

Hello, i recently just got an lg g2 which I don't have activated atm. It is the sprint one but I am currently using cricket on another phone and was hoping that this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2655133 will hopefully allow me to use this g2 with cricket. I love this phone. If it is possible, I would also like help on how to root the stock firmware as I don't think any custom rom will make this beast any faster.
