Do I need to install a special new Baseband version
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
It's in included in the stock ftf you need to flash before installing.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shulah:
Thank U

Was the installation
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soumya_digi:
Boot.IMG are custom kernels. Stock ftf contains kernel.sin. You need to go through the Development thread to get custom kernels and flash them if your bootloader is unlocked.

Baseband 72 is recommended, but any baseband will do.. What is your current setup??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] INHUMANITY:
I got my notification to update to L710VPLG2 and chose the install now option. It failed because I had CWM installed. Doh! I forgot to remove CWM.

So, I uninstalled CWM, unrooted and went back to the stock recovery. Now the Device Status is: normal.

However, I can't get the device to find the update when checking Update Samsung Software.

When I reverted to the stock recovery using this method, it went back to PALF9 with a date of Wednesday May 23. Before I installed CWM and used EpicTeam's recovery last week, the phone was updated had a date of June 28.

Any ideas? Does anyone have a download of L710VPLG2 available?

Many thanks! :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] INHUMANITY:
Thanks dude! :)

I see it's a zip files. So, reinstall CWM and root. Then apply update?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] w8setter:
When i installed the other update you had to be on a stock unalltered rom, it can be rooted though, install the update in cwm then install root and then reinstall cwm, and restore nandroid.....reboot
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] INHUMANITY:
Unfortunatley the install fails both from stock recovery and CWM.

I get a long winded message that says: Verifying current system... assert failed. Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip.

I am choosing the ZIP file you provided both in stock recovery and CWM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shiftr182:
CWM probably doesnt read the update script the same as stock. It looks like the stock recovery is looking for the update in a different location "/tmp" I would just go back to complete stock, get the update, then restore data.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Swayyy:
I flashed the .zip from CWM successfully....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] INHUMANITY:
To confirm, you had CWM and root still enabled?

Went into CWM and chose the ZIP file, installed and you were good to go?

For me, when I removed CWM, it also downgraded my kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] INHUMANITY:
I think I'm going to revert to stock removing CWM and root in hopes I get the OTA.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] INHUMANITY:
OK, back to stock recovery and no root.

I'm curious though, why would http://www.epiccm.org/2012/06/sprint-sgs3-stock-restore.html downgrade my kernal?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fergie716:
I'm on stock rooted too and am not getting the OTA update.

Does anyone know of any dialer codes? On the NS4G there was *#*#CHECKIN#*#* to manually check for an update
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] w8setter:
It just popped up on me after a reboot, but have you tried here in settings?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] INHUMANITY:
I was hoping there was some sort of manual or push check besides the one under Settings, Update.

So, when I reverted to stock using Team Epic's instructions my kernel went back a month in date. Screenshot 1 is from when I installed CWM and rooted. Screenshot 2 is when I removed CWM and root using Team Epic's instructions.

Obviously, I've rebooted quite a few times without any further notifications after the initial one failed.

Check out the attached files. :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fergie716:
Yea I tried. Not really a big deal just wanna make sure I'm all set when a big update comes

I'll try a reboot later (recording battery stats lol)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] charlie hustle:
So let me get this str8, i cant just flash this through cwm and go about my way?

There are other steps required after flashing this? If so then ill wait til theres a rom out with this update already applied.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ttieder:
Is there any difference in the update
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] w8setter:
Is there anyway to stop the update popup and reminder, it's getting very aggravating
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thomaschila:
I was getting annoyed with the popup reminder too. I flashed the stock recovery via Odin and accepted the updated. Flashed CWM and re-rooted
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
I am willing to bet a DEV out there will work on a rooted stock rom with the latest...at least there will be an updated custom rom in the next few days..bet freeza, phantom, clark44 or kmullins will have a custom ready in a day or two. They are nicer anyhow, I mean, isn't that why we are all here? :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fergie716:
I could actually do this and upload it tomorrow if there's interest

Only thing is it would probably be deodexed, I can try to re odex it but I've been having issues when doing that lately

But anyway you would want a full, rooted stock ROM with this latest update included (all the new libs and patched apps etc)?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
Yes, would be good to have around so that we could odin to it (if odexed) and use as new "latest" recovery instead of having to flash all the way back to the original to get OTA's...make sense?

And thanks if you can!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Skunk Ape1:
So far the devs have only partially implemented LF9 update (No this is NOT a knock on the devs).

Normally I wouldn't care but I was told there is a good chance there is radio update in this one. So I went back to stock unrooted and immediately got the complete LF9 update. Now I'm playing the OTA waiting game for LG2.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fergie716:
Yea totally I would use it too..

Ok well I've never made a file that Odin can use so I'll get started on this.

Gunna Odin back to stock, install the update and pull the system, boot.img and stock recovery
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
Awesome....would be nice if there really is/was a radio update in the latest one, not sure if it'll help the crappy signal I have been getting lately around here. All this "we are working on making things better" crap....blah blah blah:cool:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] carhauler1969:
It can't/won't downgrade your kernel, all the remove root from recovery zip does is remove superuser, SU permissions, & busybox. If you want to see for yourself just open the zip with a file explorer.

This is the end of the remove_root.sh script contained in the remove root.zip

And here's the contents of the zip

Hey man I remember you helping me a while ago on Valeks forums lol! Small world

How are you enjoying your SGSIII?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bbelos:
My apologies, the original instructions on the blog are only 100% accurate for the original OTA. I will be updating the post. But for now:

For anyone already on rooted Stock LF9 running the stock kernel dated Jun 28, you do not need to flash the TeamEpic's Stock Restore. That is only really needed to restore "Normal" status.

*** If are on stock, rooted LF9 and have flashed the TeamEpic-Sprint-SGS3-stock-boot-and-recovery.tar.md5:

1. Download TeamEpic-Sprint-SGS3-stock-LF9-boot.img.zip (md5:68987a71dff812fe932d8bf3cb076d5b). Be sure you also have TeamEpic-Root-from-Recovery-v5.zip, and the OTA zip from this thread.

2. Reflash CWM Recovery.

3. Reboot to CWM recovery.

4. Flash the stock LF9 kernel.

5. Flash the OTA.

6. Flash TeamEpic's Root v5 .zip.

7. Reboot.

*** If you are on stock, rooted LF9, with the stock Jun 28 kernel:

1. Reboot to CWM recovery.

2. Flash OTA.

3. Flash TeamEpic's Root v5 .zip

4. Reboot.

This will work as long as you have not deleted/modified any other stock system files. At the time of these first 2 OTAs, you do not need to unroot to flash the OTA, but it needs the stock Jun 28 LF9 kernel.

EDIT: You must have CWM recovery before following these steps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Skunk Ape1:
I was on a rooted 100% stock unaltered phone when the LF9 update came out. I excepted it and of course, it failed. Why would it be any different this time?

________________

Just Flash It !!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ret4425:
Is it worth it? Anyone notice what we get out of it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bbelos:
You can't be 100% unaltered and rooted. I will try to accept the update and see what happens, but it probably tried to reboot to stock recovery and that causes the failure. Use the instructions I posted to apply the OTA manually if so desired.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CapsLockKey:
If we flashed the unroot tool then odined stock recovery will we be ok for the latest OTA even if it's showing the May 28 ,kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bbelos:
No, the OTA will fail if you do not have the stock Jun 28 kernel. You do not need to unroot, and you do not need to flash the stock recovery.

However, if you accept the system OTA, you will need to reflash CWM and reflash the Root v5 zip.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xtrezpasor:
I'm confused, is lf9 or lg2 the newest version ? And if lg2 what's the best way to update from rooted stock lf9 to lg2 stock rooted? Thanks...

Sent from my SPH-L710...if some one helps you press the thanks button
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bbelos:
LG2 is newer. The second letter is for the month, the number is the day. EDIT: well i guess the number doesn't totally jive, but whatever.

The best way to update if you are on a stock rooted rom is with the instructions i posted a page back.

If you are on a custom rom, you will need to either restore to full stock, or wait for your custom rom to be updated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CapsLockKey:
So what do we do if we already unrooted and flashed back to stock recovery but haven't gotten the OTA yet.

Never mind, I see in the second part of your post on the previous page.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LouRock:
What is the difference between LG2 and LF9
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xtrezpasor:
Thanks. I was confused because you link to the file TeamEpic-Sprint-SGS3-stock-LF9-boot.img.zip and I thought from the name it put you on lf9. Being a human factors design person at one point I would suggest renaming the file TeamEpic-Sprint-SGS3-stock-LF9-to-LG2-boot.img.zip but thank you for the instructions.

Sent from my SPH-L710...if some one helps you press the thanks button
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bbelos:
If you have not seen the update, you can still follow the directions to apply manually.

---------- Post added at 08:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 PM ----------

I believe just more security updates, or so they say. Although that's not the topic of this thread.

You can rename the zip to whatever you want :p but it flashes you back to the stock LF9 kernel so that the OTA doesn't fail when it tries to apply the kernel patch. The zip does not update you to the LG2 kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LouRock:
Sarcasm? Your a funny dude! :eek:

Thanks bbelos! Your instructions were excellent.

Very simple and quick update process and I'll bet there will be more coming, especially with so many devices being sold in such short order.

There obviously isn't a change log and on a device as complex as this one, "security update" can mean lots of things. If it really is for security, its probably best that they don't reveal the security holes, no?

---------- Post added at 09:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 PM ----------

That is hilarious "human factors design person," lol!

The update zip is in the 2nd post.

Questions go in Q&A

Thread moved
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DroidGnome:
This is odd... my Sprint S3 was rooted using the "ToolKit" found in the Dev folder here on XDA.. no issues with rooting, and I was on LF9 prior to root.

(Bought phone 2 days ago.. waited for the update from last week to be sent.. THEN I rooted).

I was just making sure I'm ready for this update and noticed a strange thing... Several posts on here tell us to make sure we have the JUNE 28 Kernel...

Well I don't :) My Kernel is dated May 23, yet I never replaced it. (Unless the Toolkit did that and I didn't notice).

The full Kernel Version as shown in About Device says:

3.0.8-618049-user
se.infra@SEP-91 #1
SMP PREEMPT Wed May 23 22:26:52 KST
2012

Wondering what steps I should take at this point.. I"m thinking of having the Toolkit return everything to stock... Then see where I'm at... if Kernel and Version are back to LF9 and June 28, then I'll apply the update and re-root using Team Epic's version this time...

But I've got a strange feeling getting back to stock isn't going to be as easy as telling the toolkit to do so hehe.

Thoughts? Anyone else see May 23 kernel?

BTW This is a SPRINT Device of course.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bbelos:
May 23 is the date of the original, pre-LF9 stock kernel. I posted some instructions and a zip back on page 3 that will flash the stock LF9 kernel that the OTA will check for.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] INHUMANITY:
This method worked for me. Thanks for your help!

Added a second number 2 as some may overlook this. I forgot to uncheck Auto Reboot and the stock recovery was on the phone even though it installed successfully. Installed CWM again without the Auto Reboot checked, removed battery, rebooted and CWM was on the phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] INHUMANITY:
Screenshots of my results.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] INHUMANITY:
An interesting side note. When I first got the S III, rooted and ran Quadrant Standard I got a score of 4921.

On the 7th, I ran it again for giggles and noticed performance decreased below the HTC One X to 4438.

I re-ran it after applying the newest update and now I'm at 4928.

I made sure to kill all running task using Samsung's task manager before running.

Perhaps a small performance bump with LF9? Since the numbers are small, it could just be what I happened to have been running at the moment I ran Quadrant.

Either way, I'm a happy camper! :D

Listen to Bizdady. It'll save you a lot of trouble in the future. In this case, you're probably best off not going back to stock and just upgrading to the new version of Blaze ROM. Make a nandroid backup in either case, since you never know if you'll want the data later.

Here you go. I think in order to install this you're going to need to be rooted.

1. Copy and paste and paste the apk into your SDCARD folder on your Galaxy Player.

2. Then, use a file explorer with Root Permissions (e.g. Root Explorer, ES File Explorer) and copy and paste the apk into the following directory

system-->app

3. Lastly, do a reboot and you should be good.

Hi, my family recently start a new family plan with at&t. I am wondering can i use a international gsII with the new plan and grab the $10 unlimited data plan? (i also have unlimited family txt) I am going through a authorized at&t store not from a corporation store. The worker there offer me $15 for the data plan which i thought it was $10. Can i grab the $10 data plan after they activate my phone ? Or i should have everything settle and call at&t directly to ask them to add it on? This is my first smartphone so im trying to save my parent some money. Sorry for the bad explaining.

Thanks in advance!!!

You seem to think I will know a definitive answer to this question. I'm only relaying my personal experience as another AT&T customer; I have messaging unlimited at $20 (not the family plan unlimited text plan), and my unlimited "non-smartphone" data plan is $10.

Since I am not an AT&T employee, and have never had the unlimited family text plan, I do not know if the unlimited data will drop to $10 for you or not if you have and keep the unlimited family text plan.
