:p

Argh! On the radio side I flashed SprintGalaxyS3GL2Modem.zip and as I read...and re-read...I thought you also had to do the Odin file because it contained a couple of files that were not included in the zip...something to do with partition size as I understood the OP to say in another post. So flashing that last Odin file just overwrote a couple of the files that were already there due to SprintGalaxyS3GL2Modem.zip?

If that is the case, why post the additional files? No disrespect meant, just asking...because it confused me.

Thanks again!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
Just options for different ways of getting to LG2, no sweat. You having any 3g problems or wifi issues with LG2 that you can see or notice?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] verngator:
Both are working fine - haven't noticed a difference after updating. I've been able to get to PRL update and also to profile update.

So far, so good...

Anyone else in a 4G LTE city that's not getting 4G? I live in Houston, TX and LTE was rolled out yesterday and I've driven all over town and have yet to see my phone switch to LTE. Just wondering if anyone else was seeing this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chrisngrod:
My friend saw 4G on his Evo LTE early last week. I don't think he was able to download anything. I should be in Houston today. I'll check it out. Mine is on Cricket for right now so I won't be able to test it on that.

I'll be working in the 290/Beltway 8 area.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Android Cowboy:
I was visiting Houston this weekend from Dallas and got some 4g although it was not very stable or fast. Make sure you have 4g turned in wireless setting under mobile data. It's on CDMA only by default.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teeeeno:
yea i switched that. it was on cdma only. according to this map from sprint almost all of houston "should" have LTE coverage.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Vdubtx:
Think the map your are showing will be the LTE when they have completed the build out. I checked the Dallas maps and they show LTE in many areas that I have not been able to connect on.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Android Cowboy:
I read that even though it's turned on that it's rolling out in stages and will improve in the next weeks. I haven't gotten any 4g in Dallas even though the Dallas map shows the coverage as well. Hopefully this thing does get better and Sprint comes through this time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teeeeno:
i'll wait and see what happens in the coming days/weeks. i live and work on the opposite ends of town. was hoping to at least see lte in one of the 2 places.:(

Goo.im is down. Does anyone have the LG2 firmware: modem and other parts hosted on their dropbox?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Antagonistt:
Was this ever addressed? Found the modem backup file, but i have no idea how to use it. I tried renaming it as a zip file, but that didn't work and ODIN won't accept it as is...what's the method to revert back to LF9? Any help is much appreciated!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mercado79:
look over here:

you leave that backup file on the root of your sdcard and flash the zip from that thread. i also uploaded it here so as to not blow up someone's dropbox.

Thought I'd share this. This is a fix for V6 Supercharger. Just modified the services.jar, added appropriate smali edits

Download:

http://db.tt/QlLiBNWB

It's meant for LG2 Deodexed version.

Just flash in recovery. After flashing it run V6. I'm using 1000HP settings. After you run V6 with Script Manager, enable Browse as Root in SManager settings and navigate to /data and find 99Supercharger.sh and enable "Run at Boot" and "Run as Root"

Tested it myself and all settings stick @ 100%
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chrischoi:
So if the ROM is based off LG2 and the baseband doesn't match... should I be updating the baseband?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Skunk Ape1:
You are better off sticking to the baseband you have. LG2 baseband had made most phones get a worse signal.

No they don't need to match.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Skunk Ape1:
You didn't make a mistake the LG2 update was nothing more than taking away a function of Google search to comply with another Apple threat. And a failed attempt to improve our radios. They got worse. You did well and didn't even know it.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Kortekn:
Dumb question - Can you use the LG2 update with the LF9 radio, or are they co-dependent?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Skunk Ape1:
Yes, you can use any of the different radios. You can get all the different radios here:

im on blazer 1.6 so if i want to go to stock rooted lg2 all i have to do is flash the latest lg2 deodexed or odexed and im good rite? That will get me to where i was when i first rooted????
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
Yup, Odexed is where you will want to go if you really want to get back to exactly where you were when you were rooted.

Just beware if that if you use Odexed, you won't be able to flash random themes floating around. That's what DeOdexed is for.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shaun0207:
Need help before installing!

Right now, I have LF9. Does update include the update the removes Universal Search? If I install this rom, which version do I need to install in order for me to restore my apps and data thru Titanium Backup?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
Are you odexed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shaun0207:
Yes. I believe so. I'm using the stock rom, but I rooted via TeamEpics method

---------- Post added at 05:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:01 PM ----------

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mvaughn12:
Im at a loss if i flash the lg8 fimware do i still need to flash the odexed rom you are uploading with the lg8??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
No if you don't want to. If you were stock rooted then just flash the firmware if that is all you want/need. Otherwise either flash the whole update.zip file that he is currently uploading that isn't available yet, or download the other parts (tz, rpm,sbl2,sbl3,aboot) and flash that via Odin. If you are stock rooted then you would want the odexed version of all things that give you a choice between the two.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mvaughn12:
Thanks, i really apprecieated the help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xtrezpasor:
Modern update to lg8 worked perfectly. Just awaiting on the upload to deoxed lg8... I should just start playing with some actually roms but I might be the only person in America who likes playing with svoice using the double click lol

Freeza you are truly the man!! :highfive: Thanks for this latest LG8 flashable update bro!!! ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Geronimo.USMC:
Hey Freeza. Just to clarify. If I flash the CWM update to LG8, will I need to also flash " Other parts (tz,rpm,sbl2,sbl3,aboot): This needs to be flashed with Odin." as well? Will I be missing anything if I don't? I plan on updating to an LG8 rom later.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Unknownforce:
Hey freeza :D

So, new to the SGS3, loving it of course... ;)

I'm sticking with stock rom (for now) as I actually like the stock layout of this phone.

Just an initial question here... I'm on LEN still... Just rooted using the "non-flash counter" method... Do you have to flash all updates in order here (I'm speaking of system files, I know that most firmware updates aren't "patches" but rather full images that just flash over the old ones) OR does the LG8 you have here include all the updates from the rest of them as well?

Also, do these wipe userdata?

Thanks :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Vdubtx:
Good to see you on the S3. Remember your work on the Evo 3D. :):good:

I am no expert(I know someone will correct me if I am not right), but I think you would take the firmware updates in Odin up to LG2, and then take the firmware update for LG8.

You won't have to DL all of the full ROM files for each update.

Also, these updates will not wipe user data.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
hey dude! Glad to see you here! Familiar names are finally making the jump I see.

Nope, no need to flash all the updates in order, like the firmware, the system files are 'full' and includes all the prior updates. I make sure to flash to the first LEN software, then update through each of them to get the final build. Too bad no full packages have been released besides the LEN package. :( And nope, no userdata wipe :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Is Mobile Odin still a viable option for flashing stuff instead of using Odin on the computer? Kinda impatient here and want to flash this instead of waiting until I get home.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xtrezpasor:
Freeza, do I have to flash the search fix over this update when you finish uploading it or are you including it?

Sent from my SPH-L710...if some one helps you press the thanks button
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
I have never used mobile odin, but I assume if it's like desktop odin, then yeah you can flash.

I'm going to create a separate flashable for the search fix. trying to keep it as stock as possible....lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hayabusa1300cc:
Thanks for this, still uploading?

Sent front my Epic LTE Touch
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
Odexed is ready to go!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
This flashable update will allow us to keep root right, or will we need to flash root or use that VooDoo root app to backup and restore Root? Also anyone have thoughts on reseting Wallet before flashing this? I have not been reseting Wallet since most of these updates so far (except the first one) have nothing to do with Wallet and shouldn't affect the secure element. I can reset it, but I hate doing it because it is always a pain to get wallet to accept my username/password for my already made prepaid card everytime. I have to try like 10 times before it goes through.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stevew84:
It states that the ROM is rooted...I'm using the LG2 version of this ROM and I'm still rooted.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] psiklone:
sorry in advance, very much a noob to samsung devices and kinda confused about this update. does this rooted version that says flash through cwm require us to go to stock recovery or do you just flash like a rom and you are good to go?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] steezc:
definitely wondering the same. based on what is stated all you really have to do is the following?

Download Odexed(LG8) & LG8 Firmware flash it.

Then reflash your existing ROM (ex:blazers rom) and you are set?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stevew84:
You just treat it as any other random ROM. It's rooted but still official, if that makes any sense. It will have all of the stuff Sprint couples with their latest buillds.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mvaughn12:
keep trying to install via cw come back installation aborted any clues?? it reads full-odex.zip (bad)

update must be a bad download because if i just click on the zip i get the diagnostic message, i'll try downloading again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
Flash like a normal ROM :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mvaughn12:
how big is the rom??? jthe first download was 422mb this download is 702mb
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] psiklone:
damn that easy!? awesome ha :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stevew84:
The LG2 was like 600 something mb so this one is probably a bit larger.

hey what version of CWM are you guys using, and does it have USB mounting from recovery?

I'm on 5.5.0.4...no USB mounting. Is this the latest?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hayabusa1300cc:
hmmm maybe i shouldn't have wiped cache, its just been sitting on the Samsung Galaxy SIII screen lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
The download for the odex version should be 702MB. anything less is either incomplete or just a bad download. DeOdex will be 699MB.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mvaughn12:
you're running the same version as myself, i believe it's the most current version.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
No USB mounting, but you can use the adb push command to get stuff onto your phone

for example

adb push ROM.zip /data/media/ROM.zip will push it to internal storage

adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/ROM.zip will push it to external storage.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teeeeno:

With these ROMs, I do the following and it works on all devices i've ever flashed things on:

-wipe data

-format /system

-flash ROM

-wipe dalvik ONLY

-fix permissions

-reboot
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
Glad I haven't flashed it yet then. Just finally got downloaded completely and windows says my Odex Zip is 702 MB. Is everyone having it hang at the Galaxy S III picture, or has someone successfully flashed this on stock root? I was about to flash it, but now I am going to hold off till I see more reports.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stevew84:
I would get the deodexed if i were you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mvaughn12:
why the deodexed???
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stevew84:
More customization. Basically like if any scripts come out for our phones and stuff like that, it's supposedly easier to use those types of things with deodexed types of ROMs.

I don't know the specifics, but that's what I've read about it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shaun0207:
Anybody else notice the Video App is no longer playing the previews before starting the video?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stevew84:
So you're on the new one? Which one odexed or de? Also how big was the file exactly
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hayabusa1300cc:
thanks for the tip but still didn't work. I am no noob to flashing either.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stevew84:
Then re-download the ROM. normally you'll get a quick "installation aborted" prompt if its the wrong file size, well if it's super small.

You might have just about the entire rom but missing like 10mb.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hayabusa1300cc:
thanks just started the download over. doing the old trick of extracting the zip with winrar shows 5 errors [corrupt files] so far

just got eager to flash without checking it lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
See but I haven't seen anyone post that they flashed the 702mb file and it actually worked yet. So until then, I am assuming it is an issue much broader than a bad download. I could be wrong, and it wouldn't be the first, but if multiple people say it is not booting up after flash and no one has commented that the 702MB file worked, my gut tells me there is an issue with the flashable zip.

Edit: nevermind I see his download did indeed mess up. I extracted with WinRAR and mine showed no errors, so I guess i will attempt to flash.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
When are you getting errors during the flash from cwm? I don't want to flash and then have to restore from android backup but if it just fails during install and doesn't mess my boot up I will try it now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] smark72:
It looked like it flashed ok in cwm but I couldn't get past the Samsung logo. I had to restore a nandroid backup.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SSaxman:
I rooted using the method that doesn't trip the flash counter (used Odin to flash the LEN tar with root injected). I then installed CWM. Everything was working--I had root, I had recovery, made a backup. I then downloaded the LG8 Other Parts, firmware, and odexed zip. I Odin'd the Other Parts first, then booted into recovery, wiped Dalvik/Cache, flashed the modem, and then the odexed zip. Now I'm stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy S3" screen. I can't boot back into recovery, either. I can boot into download mode, though. Is my only option to Odin back to stock and start over?

EDIT: I didn't receive any errors when flashing either of the packages in recovery, either.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] smark72:
Pull the battery and try to boot into recovery again using your volume up, home and power button. Let go as soon as you see the blue writing in upper left corner of screen. See if that will get you into cwm so you can restore your back up.

I am not sure if using Odin to flash the other parts would break your recovery.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mvaughn12:
i think it may be and issue with the zip, i've downloaded 3 times now and on a regular extraction i get several errors, which may be why when in install it hangs at the samsung screen. it may have to be re uploaded.
