Well...2 hours to download the Revision3 file on our crappy work internet (but damned if I'm going to wait until I get home). At least I'll get to watch the successes/failures roll in in the meantime.
Got my Windows tablet tethered to my GN2 and downloaded Revision3 in 15 minutes which killed my work internet download time!

Also...you mention to stick to flashable zip packages. If I understand correctly, flashing through recovery will still run the typical recovery checks, but ODIN will not?
10mins 4g on my phone! Now I just need access to a computer...grrr

I lost unlimited data :( 8gb package and down to my last 1.5gb between me and the girlfriend (it's been a busy month for me, starting with buying the SIII, then switching it out for a Note II). At least my data resets on Saturday.

i just want to point out , because I'm a grammar nazi, that it should say "so MANY problems" in that warning or remove the plural from problem(s). lol. im just teasing. love the work adam. im sure i speak for everyone when i say THANK YOU SO MUCH
to quote a smart man named adam outler "maybe if i use smileys itll help" :cowboy::eek::angel::laugh::p

Yes sir. This was what i did.

step 1: odin revision3 rom by itself to ungrey button. this was the only way i was able to get the phone bootloader button to ungrey.

step 2: wipe data / cache

step 3: odin revision3 again with pit with phone bootloader button checked as shown in video

step 4: boot into rom. enable usb debugging.

step 5: run casual part. this is where i get stuck.

Note: if the flash bootloaders button is greyed out, put something in the bootloader section and hit the reset button or just uncheck the box.

I don't think you actually have to flash it though. It's just to ungrey the button. Above is from OP.
