[Q] Carbon Rom Download sph-l710 - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Hey every one!
Flashed my first ROM and it is awesome! The Peoples Rom. Now I would like to try Carbon. I use a US Sprint S3, and I don't see my model #, Sph-L710 on the downloads lists. Do they uses another model number which is also compatible?
Also, could you please advise me on how I can find out what boot loader i Have,? Other ROMs state you need a specific boot loader and i Have no idea what mines is.
Thanks so much!

D2LTE is the unified one for all LTE models

You can find your Bootloader it by looking at Settings/About Phone... Your Bootloader should match what the Baseband says.

Thanks for taking the time to explain that to me!
It looks like my Boot loader is MK3, So i guess Carbon ROM is MK5, and its a no go?

AOSP ROMs like Carbon do not go by the Bootloader, MK3 should work just fine, but if you and upgrade, ND8 is the latest.

Thanks! I just downloaded the nightly, copied it to my phone, but when i used my boot recovery to install from Zip its said something like, msum mismatch and did not install the zip...
The nighlty file, is less than 200 mbs. Was that the right file?
Thanks again

It means you got a bad download

[Q] Remove Cyanogenmod Problem

Hi,
I had stock 4.3 firmware on my att i747 galaxy s3, then I decided to flash cyanogenmod. everything went well but i dont really like it.
Now I want to go back to stock. I tried flashing the stock rom with odin but it fails and it says this on the phone:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SGH-I747
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (2 counts)
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
Warranty Bit: 1
BOOTLOADER RP SWREV: 2
SW REV CHECK FAIL : Fused 2 > Binary 0
The android version it shows is 4.3.1 and im able to use it normally with the cyanogenmod.
What can I do to flash a stock rom back?
EDIT: used triangle away and the custom binary download says "no" now and the current binary says "samsung official" but still get the same problem.
Thank You

You need to flash a stock ROM that has no boot loader attached to it. I just reverted my S3 back to stock from CM11 so that I could sell it. Flash a Rom.zip through recovery and it should work fine. I see you are ATT so I suggest this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2540998. You have the choice of Stock Rooted without bootloader which is what you will be looking for. This thread also has everything you may need. Do not attempt to use Odin to flash roms with older bootloaders or you will find major issues.
You will almost definitely need to wipe everything so back everything up and be sure to take a Nandroid.

In that thread you have 2 good options that I can see. Scroll down and you will find one ROM by upndwn4par/full and another debloated directly under it. Which you chose depends on if you want Samsung/ Google software on it. The upndwn4par file will have you closer to stock than the other. Please be sure to read a couple pages, even if you don't get any immediate knowledge from it you will become way more familiar with these processes. It's worth the time, and safer for your phone.

Thanks once again, i will download the debloated one. But I have a question, that won't be a stock rom right? If the bootloader is the problem is there a stock d2att 4.3 rom i can flash?
That is a stock ROM. It is just pre rooted with knox removed. It is a modified version of the Stock OTA with the problematic parts removed..

You need a custom recovery to flash this. CWM or TWRP. I'm not too sure how you got to CM without one but be sure you have one and then flash the Rom from above. You can install CWM with the app 'Rom Manager'.

I installed CWM but now that i used cyanogen for a while im starting to like it. The only thing that I dont like is the music player. I downloaded google play but it is even worst, my playlists are not even in order. Is there any way of flashing the stock samsung music player on cyanogenmod or is it integrated with the touchwiz?
Thanks for all the help you gave me so far.
EDIT: I found this thread about ported s4 apps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2267029, can i just flash it with CWM using cyanogenmod?
You can not flash that S4 port. It says it is specifically for the Galaxy advance. Also you are correct that the Samsung player requires Touchwiz. Try Power Amp, it has pretty good reviews and features. A 3rd party player is probably your best bet. You can cherry pick for features

I tried a lot of players and didn't like any. Flashed the ROM you indicated using CWM and it worked. Did it all for the player Everything is working fine now and I really like how it doesn't have all the bloatware from att.
Thank you very much for the help.

Yes I'm on 4.4 bootloader. I flashed the tmobile 4.4 nb4 tar. via odin. Flashed CF auto root n9005 version via Odin, and then flashed the TWRP .tar that @bigbiff posted via odin as well. Then in TWRP flashed the latest Philz recovery zip that works with 4.4 bootloader (thats my preference, I like PhilZ.) Then just downloaded and installed Echoe. By the way I had no idea International 4.4 Roms were sooo much faster than ours...its quite noticeable. WIFI and everything works out of box. no need to flash any kernels or anything.
I get stuck at Samsung Note 3 Screen..

Can you send me the link to the Philz recover you used? I tried installing Sweet Rom (international) and it wiped my internal storage. Want to try Philz to see if that will resove that problem.

its not the recovery, it's the updater script included in some international roms, you have to modify the updater script so that it doesnt do wipe internal. follow these instructions.
1. Download ROM, open .zip with winRAR or 7zip.
2. Navigate to META-INF\com\google\android
3. Drag updater-script to desktop and open in Notepad++ (http://notepad-plus-plus.org)
4. Delete the following... http://imgur.com/F7rdFCo
5. Save (make sure you save as the same format - just click save and not save as)
6. Drag back into same directory and overwrite the previous updater-script in the rom .zip

LITERALLY THAT MADE ME ROLL AROUND ON THE GROUND AND LAUGH MY ASS OFF.
That my friend was not made for the Canadian Variant. I and my friend MISCOM, made that fix when we started putting out Int. Roms for TMO and Canadian phones. If you go the the Stainless thread, you will see the original posting of that fix. That's why when you flash that fix it says, made by Miscom. All somebody did was change the name of the file and stick it up on other threads. I've in months only seen one person credit Miscom for the work we did. Not mad. Doesn't bother me, we made the fix and said here guys go grab it and put it on the N9005 page so everybody can fix this issue.

I wasn't blaming you. It's opensource, not like we wrote new code to do it. We just took the time to figure out how to fix make everything work.
Its funny because as you stated you had no way of knowing, people renaming it and posted it as their work do. This is probably the 5th name i've seen for this. It doesn't make me mad. Actually it makes me smile that something that was put out is still being used.

[Q] only 1 ROM

I hit the wrong button the other day while trying to reflash stock to my S3 and wiped the system folder. the brain had farted and forgotten about the lock out. only had a older version of TWRP so was only able to install Cyanogen 10.0.0.0 and now I can't flash anything else. not a newer version. not a different ROM. everything else fails. I think the error message said something about a boot loader.
it works but CM 10.0.0.0 just isn't working for me (I HAVE to have a camera for work).
any recommendations or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

That is a JB ROM. You would have to edit out the asserts before it will flash. But instead of doing that try using Odin to flash stock NJ2. Once you have stock on there, you should flash the last official release of Philz, then flash a ROM, try WickedS5.

I find Philz works better than TWRP on our devices anyway. Feel free to flash ROMs from Philz. Just don't try to Odin anything lower than your current baseband, or you will brick your device.

using Odin instead of recovery and ROM (listed below) did the trick to get back to stock. http://www.mediafire.com/download/jjg72biz2dzm6qb/L710VPUDNJ2_L710SPRDNJ2_SPR.zip

[Q] CM 11 M12 - No Service/Data

Hello,
I OTA updated from CM 10.2 stable to CM 11 M12 snapshot and I installed the gapps separately. Almost everything seems fine except for "No Service" issue. Data connection is not working, but am able to make and receive calls. There is no APN settings and adding one does not gets saved.
I searched xda and few threads state that it is due to old modem. However, this thread in xda says that the bootloader and the modem version has to be match, otherwise installing a modem with mismatching bootloader may hard brick the phone.
According to "Phone info *Samsung*" app my
Bootloader version is : I747UCDMG2
Baseband version is: I747UCDMG2
1. Do I just get the latest Modem ONLY from this thread or do I need to get BOTH bootloader and modem from dstruct2k thread.
2. If I can't solve the issue, can I just flash stable CM 10.2 back with corresponding gapps? Will it cause any such issue, because somewhere in the above thread it was mentioned that dowgrading modem might hard brick the phone too.
Thanks in advance. Any help is really appreciated.
Looks like your bootloader and modem are too old to fully supported your updated ROM.
You will need to update both; however, once updated, you can never downgrade either to be safe.

Thanks. Is there a order in which both has to be flashed like bootloader first and then modem next? Do I flash both at the same time or flash one first, reboot and then flash the other?
Also, if I don't proceed to flash the new bootloader and modem, can I safely flash CM 10.1 now without bricking the phone?
Thanks again for your reply and help.

has bootloader/modem combo zip. i think mjb and ne4. just flash and it updates both at same time. be sure to read OP first though.

Both should be flashed in tandem.
Yes, you can go back to cm10.2 as cm roms don't flash a bootloader or modem.

Thank you very much to both of you. I followed the thread you mentioned and installed the MJB bootloader/modem combo and I got the data connectivity back. I did not install NE4 though as I dont really need it now I guess. Thanks again.
good to hear you got it fixed. :thumbup:
