your one of the few people who got the NJ3 update....and Ryan is wrong this time you have the regular L710 NJ3 will be going out to Virgin and Boost S3's that aren't the T model...but i would still try PhilZ to see if that will root your phone and if that doesn't work flash PhilZ again but then flash this http://download.chainfire.eu/642/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.41.zip

To recover OTA updates you need to reset your binary counter. (you need root access)
So you should root your device again then reset your counter and finally flash a stock firmware.

[Q] [PICS] Stuck on "Firmware Upgrade Encountered an Issue" [URGENT]

Hello XDA, haven't been on these forums for a while.
I have a slight issue with a Galaxy SIII I just picked up off a friend.
The S3 goes to this screen every time I try to boot it with the power button:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
And I AM able to get to the download mode screen:
I've tried to flash a Stock Rooted Firmware onto the phone using Odin 3.07, and all it does is say it failed.
Another thing to note is that I CAN'T boot into recovery, and that I do not have Clockworkmod installed.
Also, I am not sure if my device is rooted as it was given to me by someone else..
Any help on trying to solve this issue will be much appreciated!! Thank you! ��
EDIT: if you can't see the images for some reason, it is just a photo of the "Firmware Upgrade Encountered an Issue" screen and a photo of the download mode screen.
More info:

well for one your s3 is from T-mobile so you can't really download Odin flashable roms from here on the Sprint S3 forum the only help i can give is go to the T-mobile s3 forum and it sounds like you might have a bad cable try with another one or a different PC

Epdg test app

I found this while playing around with different hidden things on my note 4 and was wondering if anyone could tell me what it is and if anyone knows if it's ok to change any of the settings in this menu.

I can't see a photo if you appended one.
After looking into this after debloating and now that I have an unlocked bootloader (so happy now), it seems to be a test to enable WiFi calling with verizon and/or samsung. It should be harmless. I froze it in Titanium Backup since they have announced WiFi calling coming to verizon.....soon.

Hi.
I accidently bought a s7 edge verizon and now I can't work anymore. Its draining my battery so fast that it get to hot to finish. I have tried to unlock the bootloader so I can root it, (both with wondershare dr. Fone and with odin) but it seems impossible.
How can I make my phone my own phone?

Follow this post carefully step by step, do not skip anything and you should have a fully rooted S7edge.
Keep in mind that there's no bootloader unlock available for US Samsungs, therefore no TWRP custom recovery, otherwise it works just fine.

Thanx. I will get back when I'm finished

NJ1 safe to flash??

So I was plagued with the task of rooting an s3...
I managed to root and flash twrp. However I want to make sure before I flash a rom. Is the bootloader locked on NJ1 firmware?
SANSUNG-SGH-I747
VERSION 4.4.2
I747UCUFNJ1
it's probably been asked already but I haven't been able to find an answer. Thanks
The bootloader cannot be locked if the phone was successfully flashed with twrp.
The bootloader on the att s3 has never been locked, unlike many other phones from att.

Awesome thanks! Would you happen to have any insight on why the phone would be stuck in factory mode? And would flashing a new rom take it out?
What do you mean by factory mode? What message appears on screen when you boot the phone?

You have the international version of the s3? The North America version is either i747 or i747m?
