If you're running stock, then you can just plug the phone into Kies and it should recognize it. What you could also, but would probably wipe you data, would be to flash it in ODIN http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1391174
if you are talking about the official one
you can even do it from Kies
if you do it from Odin, then make sure you have Odin downloaded and installed
then make sure you also download the tar, or zip or rar of the 2.6.3 stock for T989
then put the parts accordingly in Odin, and hit Start

This new upgrade is pre-rooted.
No need to root it at all.
Here is the direct download link for the new Samsung Galaxy S3 T999 Official 4.1.2 stock rooted Jellybean rom:
- http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=22946563261203914
Just flash it using cwm or twrp like any other zipfile rom.
Good luck!

Here is a step by step guide:
Easy and sure way to root your phone - Here is s step by step guide:
After you have followed these instructions your phone will be in the same condition
as it was the day you have purchased it except with the benefit of being rooted.
Download the stock-rooted Samsung Galaxy S3 Jellybean v4.1.1 T999 firmware: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390169635556426451
After downloading make a folder on your computer's desktop and unzip the
file using Winzip or 7zip so the .TAR file is in the new folder you just made.
Download and extract Odin into the same folder you made containing the TAR file
Here is the link for Odin: http://d-h.st/Q14
Download ODIN which is required for flashing the stock rooted firmware (a windows app)
Download the Odin Flash firmware for T999 Tmobile then copy it to the same folder as Odin
Run Odin by double clicking the Odin.exe within the same folder as the TAR file you extracted
Turn off your phone and boot into DOWNLOAD MODE (Volume Down + Home + Power Hold until phone powers up, then release and press Volume Up to enter Download Mode)
Once in Download Mode, connect the USB/Charger cable to the phone and plug into the USB port on your computer.
You should now see a COM** port listed toward the top-left of Odin (under ID:COM)
Click on the PDA button in the middle-right area of Odin.
Browse to and select the Firmware you downloaded (TAR file)
Make sure Auto-Reboot and F. Reset Time are the only options checked and that PDA is the only other thing checked.
TRIPLE CHECK your settings and that you have selected the correct firmware for your model phone and are using the correct options.
If you are using a laptop, make absolutely sure you are plugged in, or if on battery, that it is charged enough and will not go into sleep mode during flash.
Click Start to begin the flash. This will take a while, so be patient!
Once complete, in the top-left box in Odin, it will say PASS and the phone should have automatically rebooted.
You may unplug the phone and close Odin if you wish.
Wait at least 5-10 minutes for the system to boot the first time and then build its cache!
(It may seem to take a long time on first boot, this is normal so you must be very patient!!!)
Good Luck!

The reason is that Jody (the developer) removed the new RADIO/MODEM image
from the rom so everyone including those people who have AT&T Unlocked phones
can use the rom.
If you want the original baseband/modem/radio cwm/twrp flashable zipfile here
is the UVDMD5 Radio/Baseband Download Link - http://db.tt/RgrCGufl
Only flash this if you have a Samsung Galaxy S3 T999 device and you have Tmobile service.
You can root same way as all prevouse stock ROMs. Install custom recovery with Odin and then flash superuser in recovery.

Except for one thing. After odin flashing recovery you cannot let the device restart. Everytime you boot up it checks for correct recovery and if its not there it rewrites it.

That's one of the main reasons I always suggest NOT to odin flash the stock T999 4.1.2 tar rom
but instead flash the cwm/twrp T999 pre-rooted deoxidized 4.1.2 rom which Jody setup for us.
People should have been warned about what you said before they allowed the OTA update to
upgrade their phones unless they don't want root access and want their phone to be pure stock.

Its all been covered pretty thoroughly, and all folks need to do is read! I know its asking an awful lot for some.
I haven't looked at jovys but there are two files that cause the recovery rewrite, and if he didnt remove them his rom will do the same.
If I remember right they are:
Install-recovery.sh
Recovery-on-boot.p
The second is wrong im pretty sure, but its something similar. Check my firmware thread and it should be there.
Hope that helps.

Still need to Odin stock to get the updated bootloader/rpm/tz. Unless you want to flash them yourself. That's why everyone suggests root66.

I was just looking in your "Firmware/OTAs T999(V) Official, Leaked & Root66 FW & OTA Updates" thread
and downloaded the "root66_TMO_T999UVDMD5.7z" which is the pre-rooted Odin flash 4.1.2 firmware.
The reason I downloaded it is that I just want to have a odin flash rooted backup of 4.1.2 in case I need it in the future.
I wanted to ask if this firmware includes the modem/radio in the TAR file?
If it does, what is the filename of the modem/radio file? (I need to remove it).
My phone is an Unlocked AT&T I747 Galaxy S3 which I am using with Tmobile service and
I do not want to flash the modem/radio since it will not work with my phone.
Thanks.

Modem is NON-HLOS.bin. Can't remove it, because the md5 check will fail.
Maybe ask mrrobinson if he can give you any pointers on how to remove it correctly. The steps he uses to create root66 would likely work to remove the modem as well.
Do you have the same partition layout as us? If not, dont use any of the firmware. If so you can always flash it and then flash your correct radio after.

What if I remove the .MD5 from the filename ?
I don't think that Odin requires the .MD5 extension, I know I have Odin flashed
roms a while back which did not have an MD5.

I am sure I have the same partition layout, I am using the cwm/twrp flashable zipfile of the pre-rooted UVDMD5 T999 4.1.2 rom.
Before I got the Unlocked AT&T Galaxy S3 I had the galaxy S2 which I used with AT&T network and flashed the
root66 Odin flash roms before and had no problems, but since I am with Tmobile now I need to remove the radio file.
Since I am with Tmobile now, I never odin flashed roms due to the fact that they all contain the radio file.
Mobile Odin will flash without the md5 extension. Cant remember for sure with pc odin. I may try it later tonight to see for sure. You can also deselect the modem when flashing via M.O. in case you didnt know, though
I am also pretty sure you have the same layout as the t999. I appreciate you taking the time to do it in a way that is safe and wont brick!
I do think you would be ok to flash the full fw though, just make sure you have a copy of the correct modem and flash it right after.
Ill let you know for sure about the md5 after I get home and try it out.

Before you attempt an Odin + pit recovery have you tried the following:
1 - boot into recovery and do a factory reset
2 - flash the stock image via Odin by itself (please copy and post the results from the status screen) - then repeat step #1
If that doesn't resolve your issue....
It's very rare that a repartition is needed, as I'm not aware of any roms that muck with the partition sizing/data on the i317/i317m .... but depending on what the status screen says it may be worth an attempt. If you visited the link above, you'll see that I've temporarily pulled the files. I have a new files ready and am planning on testing the one for the i317 this weekend. I don't have a i317m so... if you want to test the file (which was pulled correctly from an i317m and is now sized correctly) - send me a PM.

Which non-stock rom? After flashing it are you able to get into recovery mode? Does this rom by any chance flash a modem.bin?
If a stock rom loads ok, chances are your pit mapping is OK.

Sounds to me like ur definitely not giving the roms enough time on the boot. Some could take 5-7 minutes for initial boot. The fact that stock works and EVERY OTHER ROM here doesn't... leads me to believe this. Patience is virtue
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
also, someone at your skill level should not be messing with partitions; you are just asking for a brick..
Not to mention the likely requirement of fully wiping the internal storage of the device...
Arbitrarily changing frameworks back and forth without wiping the file structure first will give you problems on boot...(boot loops)...
Additionally....once the rom is flashed...it may help to immediately go to recovery and wipe the device caches and data again...g

ok i will try again and keep you posted
got it working after several tires, running the 4.3 jedi x2
:good:
I have a rooted S4 running GPE 5.0.1. Since updating about 2 weeks ago it seems my signal strength isn't as strong as it was with my old ROM (CarbonRom 4.4.4) and I'm experiencing complete signal dropouts from time to time.
This got me thinking about my modem. Does it need to be updated? WiFi is working fine. My last official OTA was from T-Mobile about a year ago when they took the phone to 4.2.2. My baseband is M919UVUAMDL and poking around various XDA sees forum threads discussing "NK2" and "NK4" modems. Tmo's website lists M919UVUFNK2 as the latest baseband so my modem is out of date? I looked for a Tmo version of the just "NK2" modem and didn't find anything that wasn't a full ROM install. Just want to update my modem and keep Lollipop 5.0.X Is there a modem update I should flash?
Any thoughts and help would be appreciated.

At the moment I have not seen a flashable zip for nk2, Im on official cm12 android 5.0.2 and just updated my modem, here is what I did, I download the full firmware , extracted it with winrar, and used Odin 3.0.7 to flash the modem.bin and non-hlos.bin
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Free mobile app
Correct me if something has changed; but doesn't flashing an up to date non-hlos still randomly cause complete signal drop on devices that are not running the updated bootloader that came with 4.4?
Or rather; at least until securestorage is disabled in build.prop
Also, you will most likely have to flash them 2x with odin.
First time uncheck the auto restart box, and manually power cycle back into download mode.
Second time leave the auto restart checked.

So perhaps it would be better to odin the lastest official t-mobile ROM back onto the phone to update all the internals and the bootloader etc, then root again and re-install my preferred custom ROM of choice?

Why does it matter which version of Odin we have to use? Specifically, why Odin 3.07?
Additionally, if modem.bin refers to the modem for the Samsung Galaxy S4 then what does non-hlos.bin refer to?

Well, I say use v3.0.7 because that is the version that worked for me, your results may vary, also some say that the non-hlos.bin refers to a separate modem for lte only, others say it refers to the WiFi driver, now, you don't have to flash it of you feel it has no benefit to you, I only did because this phone is the first one I've used that has the non-hlos.bin,, so I flashed it.

Since it is possible to flash the modem (via modem.bin) as well as flashing the lte modem/or WiFi driver (via non-hlos.bin) - then is it also possible to flash the bootloader itself on the Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-M919) if it is running Android 4.4.4 (M919UVUFNK2)? If so, how would someone accomplish doing this?

I'm pretty sure I can make a flashable zip for you, but in all honesty, I wouldn't recommend doing that, to reduce the risk of a brick and to keep money in your pocket, I would do a full backup and flash the latest stock update to update the bootloader

Let me ask this: if it's possible to make a flashable zip to flash the bootloader to a higher version (like the bootloader from Android 4.4.4-M919UVUFNK2) then is it also possible to make a flashable zip to flash the bootloader to a lower version (like the bootloader from Android 4.2.2.-M919UVUAMDL)?
I believe I'm in the same boat. I tried out AICP ROM 5.0.2 and my signal dropped out most of the entire time and I could rarely send or receive calls/texts when it showed that I had signal. I now have restored my backup of AICP 4.4.4 and so far it seems to be working correctly. But a flashable zip would be highly appreciated if someone could do it. I would try myself but internet is extremely slow and I'm afraid I would make a mistake and brick phones other than mine.

As I remember it from my GS3 days, once a Knox bootloader is implemented (I.e 4.3+) you can not downgrade to a non Knox bootloader (I.e 4.2-)

Ive also been doing some research on the flashable zip for bootloader, and it seems very difficult for me to make one
Since all I could find were the full ROM/firmware Odin packages for the new UVU1COG2, I extracted the bootloader and baseband/modem and made them separate Odin flash-able tar.md5 packages for those that may be interested in only updating these 2 and nothing else. (Example: I'm running CM 12.1, and want to keep it that way, but want to use the newer baseband & bootloader)

In ODIN 3.09+:
baseband goes in CP
bootloader goes in BL
Cheers.

By popular request, I've done this for the newest UVS2EPG2 firmware as well. You can find them in the same download link.

Not OCG2... You mean the COG2 bootloader and baseband, if
that's the case you are right...
Just odin flash the two files before flashing the tekxodus upgrade
and be sure to do a full wipe and factory reset before odin flashing..
Good luck,
Have a great day!

Put your device into download mode
Start odin put the modem tar in the pda slot hit start.
Do the same thing for the bootloader.
Very easy I did this ontop of a 5.02 zero issues..

Can I do both same time or reboot in between?

Can you safely downgrade your baseband? I keep reading that COG2 is recommended, but my Note 4 already has DOFC.
Also is COG2 just recommended because of Wifi calling?

You can easily downgrade dofc/dog1 to cog2, cod6 or even nk4 kitkat
by simply doing a full wipe and odin flashing either of those firmwares.
Before odin flashing any firmwares be sure to have a copy of your favorite
custom zip file rom on your external or internal sdcard.
After odin flashing the firmware you have chosen out of those 3 firmwares
simply odin flash twrp recovery, then do a full wipe including factory reset.
No need to re-root because all zip file roms are pre-rooted.
Then simply twrp flash the zip file rom which you have copied to the phone.
COG2 is the latest firmware which has wifi calling working properly
unless you flash any of the dofc/dog1 zip file roms, if you flash any
of the dofc/dog1 roms the wifi calling feature will not work at all.
Good luck,
Have a great day!

So I'm still on NK4 running the Bobcat themed DynamicKat rom. I tried the whole ODIN COG2 then DynamicPop and all was good until I tried to restore my phone back to DynamicKat.
I decided I didn't like not having a theme like I had and presently don't have the time to make anything so all I am trying to do now is have COG2 Bootloader/Baseband but running on KitKat. I feel like I might be missing a step somewhere so if anyone could help that would be appreciated!

If you could install "samsung info".

Then we can see infact what bl and baseband and such You've got..
