AT&T hasn't released as you saw a stock firmware file since jelly bean's early days. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I've gotten that issue all long since 4.3. It's KNOX Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Yes you have to be on stock and use the stock dialect to do what you want to. Sent from my OnePlus One

No the bootloader is silk unlocked on the kit kat update. You are good to go. Sent from my OnePlus One

Flash a factory image to it. Should fix problems easily and give a nice new fresh zippy feel to the phone. Sent from my One using Tapatalk

They will probably offer a different device because the Galaxy Nexus is so old. Best way to know is to ask Verizon themselves. Sent from my One using Tapatalk

If you want to leave root alone, you can reflash stock 4.4.2 is in Odin. But if you want to try to fix root you can flash a custom recovery is in Odin so you can flash an update to superuser using the custom recovery

So your s3 was trying to upgrade from 4.1.2 or 4.3?

To update official software, you need to be on stock software, unrooted, with stock recovery What version of Jelly Bean is your CleanBean ROM based on?DO NOT take any updates while rooted or on custom ROMs.

I recommend getting your hands on the Android SDK and using adb to boot into download and recovery modes. I got a water damaged d2att from friend a few months ago and the old volume down key doesn't work and using the command prompt and adb, you can get it to boot to whichever mode you want...

I know many people on Google+ that swear by this ROM. It's called Shiny ROM. Here's a link to the page on Rootzwiki: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/36706-romaosp3914-shiny-rom-ota-like-stock-android-442-kvt49l/ Read all about it over there. Hope to have helped a bit.

You equivode ROM? What do you mean by that? What do you also mean by 'Normal S3'? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

As far as I know there are no TouchWiz ROMs for the i535 at version 4.2.2 because it never official got the update (straight from 4.1.2 to 4.3.0). Are you looking specifically for TouchWiz ROMs or are AOSP acceptable too? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

I've noticed the same thing. I think it might be the lack of optimization given we're the first release state-side. Sent from my Sprint Samsung Google Nexus S 4G running Unofficial CM 11

If you're interested, I made one and it works flawlessly with CF Autoroot. Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13jWFe-xYgg

I just used it this morning to root my other s3. It works just fine :) Sent from my Sprint Samsung Google Nexus S 4G running Unofficial CM 11

I just used CF Autoroot to root and disable KNOX, and no issues at all during the process; worked the first time.

If you're on stock recovery and ROM, name it update.zip, put it on the external storage, and flash through recovery. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

RAM Usage Screenshots For those of you that asked, here are some screencaps of the RAM section of the settings menues. The one with the time at 12:32 is after just closing all recent applications in multitasking, no RAM clear used. The one with time at 12:34 is one after the 'Clear memory'...

CNexus is right, there isn't a GPe of the S3, but the difference between a normal and GPe of a phone is that the normal one has the regular ROM (in the S3's case, 4.3 with TouchWiz) while the GPe has a stock build of Android on it, and therefore receives updates from Google instead of the OEM...

You may want to use different images written to external card to see if that helps. There's no one correct way to recover from a hard-brick (especially given that many phones can't recover at all without JTAG). Also, if you want to try the image that revived my S3 from a hard-brick a couple...

If you purchase S3s on 4.3, or they have 4.3 as an official update (I. E. The build number goes to the one that is 4.3 (varies by carrier)) then you cannot use Odin or equivalents to revert to anything <4.3 because it will hard-brick itself. If you need a stock 4.1.2 file to flash, you can find...

I don't understand how getting the image to write takes so long for most people. When I saved my S III, it took the first try, and then booted up fine and dandy like before the brick. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

Something I've been meaning to ask, simply because it's a wierd occurrence. A few days ago, I got a new 64gb Samsung micro SD card. Naturally, I had to format it into FAT32. I went to format the card using my S III (because it has helped put both my 32gb cards into FAT32). Format successful...

Without the 4.3 OTA, it will perform magnificently. With KNOX, it'll hard brick via a corrupted bootloader. I've revived from a corrupted bootloader but it isn't fun or guaranteed. Enjoy the KNOX-free as long as possible. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

As metalfN78 said, yes it will brick your phone If you use Odin. You can flash ANY version through recovery though. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

The concept behind cloud backup of photos is that they're stored in the cloud in case you need to replace the device, sell it, or otherwise not have the original physical location anymore. There is no 'cloud auto-restore photo' setting for any app as far as I know, only backups. Sent from my...

Win32 lets you select any kind of file (this one just happens to be in .bin format. You should probably be able to give it a new extension if you feel like it, without the data being affected.) Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

I have a working 32gb L710 debruck image for you to try out, my friend. Download from me here: https://mega.co.nz/#!4s1SQTAA!fVWpGc8Ww-DWv-0VA797V_Bd7MEBOt6EevFuglUNPrQ I was able to revive ny long-dead s3 first try. Hope it helps. :) Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

Magic for all those with 4.3 Hard-Bricks! I do. And I will send this to the correct and important people related to L710 dev work in a bit, but for now, have a fun time :) Download here: https://mega.co.nz/#!4s1SQTAA!fVWpGc8Ww-DWv-0VA797V_Bd7MEBOt6EevFuglUNPrQ

As far as I am aware, internal storage only matters when choosing what capacity of SD card to use to boot from/with. I may end up rooting the 32 gb model I have,which currently runs 4.1.2 stock unrooted. I may also end up taking the OTA to get to official KNOX'ed 4.3 and pull that debrick...

I recommend using Fat32, because it plays the nicest with Android across the board. If it won't let you format to Fat32 on the device, use a computer to do so.

I could say go in and play dumb, because they won't be able to get it to boot under normal circumstances. I also could say be honest and see if it's covered. Your judgement call. Glad to have helped.

You hard-bricked it. When you update to MK3/4.3 via the OTA, you update the bootloader, which adds KNOX which prevents (by bricking) downgrading to anything lower than 4.3 versions. Good luck my friend.

After a hard-brick like yours (and mine as well) some part of the phone's difficult-to-fix/access memory eMMC is damaged or corrupted. I recommend using a .pit file to partition the phone's internal memory, then follow up with a stock ROM flash. And if you've got 4.3/the MK3 OTA, only flash 3.3+...

Some questions you can answer to give more of a frame: 1. What software build are/were you on? 2. If the software had KNOX, had you done anything to attempt to remove/disable it? 3. The firmware was stock, were you also on stock recovery? Sent from my iPod touch using Tapatalk

1) First, as it goes goes online. 2) What you propose (switching the boards and hooking up the screen and the other necessary parts is entirely doable. If you were to do that, you'd need to find a way to eventually replace the phone's broken parts so you don't have to switch boards just to use...

Is there any way you could pull a debrick image for me amigo? I would be awfully grateful if you did JG96EVO. Hope you're enjoying 4.3 :)

The problem is that everyone waited because of KNOX and has CNexus's un-KNOX'ed ROM without the 4.3 bootloader. Then the people that did update to the OTA haven't been able to root or get SuperSU/Super User to work at all. I'm going to try other forum sites and i suggest you do the same dave74x.

Could anyone pull the debrick image from a working (rooted, obviously) SPH-L710 Sprint S III running the MK3 official OTA for me? Been hard bricked for a few days, and tried different debrick images, but I found somewhere that the KNOX bootloader has to be involved because I believe that my...

Our problem is identical dave74x. I have been trying to find this image too. But no luck. I'm hoping someone that upgraded like us hasn't been savvy enough to not try flashing anything crazy. All we can do is wait. Good luck dave74x Edit: If CNexus can find someone that successfully rooted...

This is sadly the second time I've had an S III hard-brick on me. This time, I know more of what has gone wrong. Here's the back story: I reverted to stock MD4 on my SPH-L710 from Sprint and flashed the 4.3 MK3 OTA update through stock recovery. I spent the next couple days trying different...

I had the same problem yesterday. I tried Chainfire's method, using CF-Autoroot, then I installed superuser by ChainsDD from the play store, uptdated the SuperSU app (by Chainfire), it said there was more than one Super user app, asked if I wanted to uninstall the others, then updated itself...

Just finished with this method actually. I was able to flash CWM recovery 6.0.3.1, and install superuser, flashed your KNOX remover zip, and am working to see if I can actually make superuser work and not display "Unfortunately, Superuser has stopped." I don't remember if there is a way to...

I have tried with CF Autoroot, and hve the rootkit up next, but I have had failed attempts at rooting, so if you could post the link to the method or PM it to me, that would be much appreciated.

I'm not 100% sure if anyone has already asked this question, but can I install this ROM over my official OTA build of MK3? I don't give a care about my warranties, so I tried rooting, but I've gotten signature errors in stock recovery and Knox has caused problems with Odin on my computer. I am...

The .Tar file will most likely come after CNexus gets a stock unrooted version of his ROM, which will come in the following week probably. I'm waiting on the .Tar too, because I've got the OTA version, and I miss my root apps and the ease that came with them. I miss backups most, so I'm hoping...

Question: what would I have to do to get this to flash over top the official OTA of MK3? I'm going to try some stuff (cache wiping, and possibly ADB sideloading), but could you give me a little help on this? Desperately want/need root for most of my phone's functionality. I have tried just...

To answer your questions in order: 1) go into settings->my device->lockscreen and check the 'allow multiple widgets' box. 2)As for video viewing, I recommend using a different browser or try MX Player, with either option being a good alternative. Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

After browsing the pages here and in the 4.3 and up thread, I have a couple of questions, some obvious and some possibly not. First, is there a dev or two already working on unlocking this pointlessly locked bootloader? Second, I understand that you can root but not install custom ROMs or...
