No longer works after Verizon 4.3 OTA

This process no longer appears to work after Verizon OTA'd the official 4.3 update. I tried to flash back to stock following the steps here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1840030

However I'm unable to flash the VRALEC bootchain successfully. I'm wondering if Verizon had a little extra magic in that update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Don't flash anything in Odin. Once on TW 4.3, you're permanently on TW 4.3 because of Knox bootloader. You have the potential to brick your device if you flash anything in Odin.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johncase142:
I have already tried the original 4.0.4 ROM and am getting the yellow unauthorized triangle. Any idea how to make this thing boot again?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
After which step did you see this yellow triangle? Could you be very specific? Did the ICS tar flash successfully? Cuz from what I understand with 4.3 on other carrier's S3, once you're on TW 4.3 you can't downgrade. I want to tell you to flash VRBMF1 jellybean stock firmware since you've already flashed ICS firmware with no hard brick.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johncase142:
I tried flashing the VRALEC bootchain first, and it took, but then threw the yellow triangle. After that I tried loading VRALF2 stock firmware and it did not give any errors. I tried again with VRALEC bootchain with no success. Then tried VRALF2 bootchain and VRBMD3 bootchain. I can boot into stock recovery and Odin, but that's all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
We don't know. That means bootloader is locked. It would have to be Odin again. If got that with stock tar could be brick. If try to unlock may get hard brick. You kinda past the point of no return. Can try to Odin another newer one like MF1 and see what happens. It is saying the kernel is not compatible. Can't clear that message anyway without another stock Odin. Can't unlock with that message anyway. It's too late. :cool:

Ok, I'm already downloading MF1 on my really slow Internet connection. It may be done by sunrise.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Another option is to try to run the 4.3 update zip if you can get to stock recovery. May get you unbricked. Or finish you off for good. Lol :cool:

The 4.3 update did not work for me, but I appreciate the suggestion. It almost seemed to work, but I got an error saying that it was expecting an update for an earlier version of android (since I tried to flash a much earlier version via ODIN). Do you have any other updates for previous builds? If so, I may be able to install them sequentially via stock recovery, up to 4.3. Thanks in advance!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ThePagel:
I am in the same boat. But I seem to be in deep s@#$. The only tar file I can get to work is root66 4.04. Every other tar file Odin says leave CS. I am at loss no clue how to get to 4.1.2 so I can try the update zip.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sparktweek:
That's actually the same file I was able to get flashed by ODIN too. I need to go from 4.0.4 up to 4.1.2 as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] geekboy2005:
update zip worked

i flashed back with odin 3.07 with this file then had to use kies to update to the newest firmware they had which got me to 4.12 from there i went into system recovery and used the update file provided here and i am now on 4.3. i think you can just get kies and update to 4.12
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sparktweek:
What version of Kies are you running Geekboy, and how did you get the phone connected to install the firmware? Kies won't recognize my phone when I try to turn it on regularly (and get the yellow "unauthorized software" triangle). Did you put your phone in download mode or something?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ThePagel:
I tried kies but it would either sit and do nothing other than eat up all my cpu or it would say there was a problem with my phone. perhaps its a windows 8 problem?

---------- Post added at 08:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 PM ----------

yes you need to be in download mode. it wont say your connected in the top left but you are.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] geekboy2005:
I used odin first with a s3 restore file I have had to get the yellow triangle off I had to put it in dl mode then let it do its stuff

---------- Post added at 07:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:24 AM ----------

I can upload the file if needed but I think you might find it in the thread just let me know its 1.1 gigs it saved my butt a few times
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ThePagel:
whats the name of the file? If you can link to the thread that would be awesome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] geekboy2005:
Ok I found it but trying to link it keeps force closing so its easy to find in the same thread go to sticky of how to return phone back to verizon go to the op first page scroll down till you see section five click link to go to guide go to first page of it then goto section five it says how to do it the file I used was the combination one
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kangeon:
I am also in the same boat. Can't flash with Odin because of 4.3 restrictions.

As others have mentioned, the only thing flashable through Odin is root66 for some reason.

Unfortunately, my bootloader is locked which keeps root66 from booting up with the yellow triangle.

The previous solution of flashing stock through Odin doesn't work because of 4.3 restrictions.

So it seems we need to find a non-rooted stock that is flashable like root66

or find update files from 4.0.4 to 4.1.2 that can be run off of recovery mode

I tried the combination 4.0.4 that geekboy mentioned thinking it was a flashable non-rooted

but it doesn't work for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ThePagel:
I tried to update through recovery update zips but recovery complains about side loading. no clue what that's about.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kangeon:
I got the same side loading error when trying to update through recovery.

I successfully flashed an unrooted stock 4.0.4, but even that didn't get rid of the triangle.

On a side note, I saw that most threads are saying that any downgrade attempt will lead to a hard brick.

But despite all my attempts the warranty bit on my device remains unflagged. (0x0)

Not sure why, since I tried to flash lower version roms many times.

One question:

Once (or if) a flashable odin 4.3 stock is released,

will I be able to flash it on my device despite the locked bootloader?

Or will the 4.3 bootloader changes even prevent the stock 4.3 from being flashed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ThePagel:
I am not sure but I think this is a questions no one can answer until it is released. So if someone says definitively no then chances are they are guessing.

---------- Post added at 02:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:58 AM ----------

I thought maybe it needed to be flashed through cwm or twrp so I tried to kexec cwm but it failed to install. Does the kexec files need to be updated or is it the brick stopping it? one cool thing about being able to get into download mode is even if 4.3 odin flash fails hopefully heimdall will work.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] blueowl0708:
This rom is effectively the CM7.2 version of FXP140. I don't believe any changes have been committed to the es209ra sources since FXP130, but it does include the all the latest 7.2 commits made in the 2 months or so since FXP130 was released.

Background:

The USSD exploit was published last week and the Cyanogen dialer is vulnerable. I don't know if there's a USSD factory reset code for the X10 but frankly, I don't want to find out.

The exploit was patched in the CM sources recently and since FXP is no longer releasing 7.2 builds I thought I'd try and build the latest CM version from source for use on my X10 (rather than install some extra app just as a work around)

I was most surprised to get it compiled correctly first time, and I've been running it on my phone today without problems. I figured there are people here who don't have the time or inclination to compile the sources and might find this rom useful.

Installation

It's exactly the same as FXP 7.2 roms, so just follow this.

Colossus FXP install guide

You'll need the standard FXP 130 kernel, or a kernel that's compatible with FXP 130. The Kernel.sin file is included in the rom and you can make an FTF from that with Flashtool if you don't already have a suitable kernel to install.

Download link

http://www.mediafire.com/?6zkni41daaaieq7

Disclaimer: I'm not a developer and haven't made any changes, this is just a clean build of the very latest latest CM7.2 sources from Github: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mrd7rs:
will test.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Moze666:
REPOSTED!

Me test, too. :D

And I did, idk what kernel should I use, so it's a bit laggy for me. :) and Play store with Gmail isn't working. :) but everything else works good. :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ljose7:
will try it
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] pixule:
working ok. if i could add the camera from cm7 M&M.. would be better. A lot of free ram, good 3d performance with Cosmic Kernel Mod.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] blueowl0708:
I'm not sure which camera app M&M use, the APK should work as long as it's not the semc one (since M&M is based on stock rom/zmod).
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] kinglargo:
what's USSD ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] blueowl0708:
USSD codes are special dialling codes that can be used to make a phone perform special functions (e.g. show the IMEI, access the secret menu on a sony stock rom).

See the link I posted originally for more details on the bug:

http://dylanreeve.posterous.com/remote-ussd-attack

It's most serious on Samsung phones as they have a USSD code that performs a factory reset without prompting.

I'm trying to root my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S3 and after installing clockwork recovery and downloading the superuser zip file my phone gives a E: Can't mount /sdcard/ message. I've gone through the process twice and am sure I've followed instructions carefully but no luck. I sure would appreciate some help.
[General Questions and Answers] pawelqwanacja:
Everything was running perfectly until i decided to root my device.bussy box or superuser update from the google play disabled my access to physical memory of the device so that I was unable to install anything. The device originally was working on Android 4.0.3 but the manufacturer of the device provides now the 4.0.4 android only [for this series]. I have an IMG file of the 4.0.3 version[ designed for previous series] but the g-sensor doesn't work. I had tried almost everything . The 4.0.4 is a nightmare at last 30% of apss that work on 4.0.3 doesn't even start.I.ve tried compatibilty modes from protabbxxl2 and few custom roms for allwiner a10 nowhere else except the stock 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 it doesn't work.

Now , straight to the point, how to put the G-sensor driver from the 4.0.4 IMG file to 4.0.3 IMG file or any other way to make it run.this sensor on 4.0.3

[HTC Wildfire S] Pr3no:
I've tried Link2SD, but after a while I still got the "insufficient storage" message.

I know that there are S2E, Data2SD, and so on, but which one is the best?

I tried S2E and it was pretty good, but then I changed a rom and it's not working on that one, but I don't want to change that rom.

I'd like to use it on a CM9 based rom.
[HTC Wildfire S] sukhjit321:
I've always used link2sd and found it best of all. No lags nothing... And for space issues, I odex the system files and make sure every file is linked. I never had any problem after that.

For me link2sd is best, some users reported S2E to be working fairly well but IDK I just don't like it that much.
[HTC Wildfire S] Pr3no:
And doesn't it use up the internal space after a while?

The problem for me was that according to the settings/app menu I always had 60-70 MB, but when I checked in in Link2SD's storage info I only had 10-20 MB on the internal memory.

Is it normal or maybe I screwed up something and it's not working as it should?
[HTC Wildfire S] dady000:
I am using ad2sdx script with speeddroid CM9, but you need partition sd card for it. I have free 300mb of 510 :).

Here is something about it.
[HTC Wildfire S] 99Aaron99:
There are a couple of command prompts you can do that will help.

Firstly, you'll need the Android SDK (Install the drivers etc..) HTC Sync (For the phones drivers) and the latest Java on your computer.

Plug the phone into the computer.

Open a command prompt.

Navigate to the folder you installed the SDK in.

Type in "adb shell pm setinstalllocation 2" without the quotes, and now your apps will bypass the phone and go to SD by default, so even with the low memory you can still install apps.

This won't give you more memory, but you can still install apps even on low memory.

Because there is no A210 forum I link to my thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1922198

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eduardo_b:
I don't see any setting that indicates if phone is connecting to 802.11n router at n or g, but the adapter software for my USB Asus N53 Dual-Band WLAN drops to g when the phone is on wi-fi and goes back to n if I turn phone off. I don't know why phone wouldn't connect at n. Frequency is set to Auto but 2.4 Mhz does the same thing. Router is set to 2.4 to allow g devices, although I don't think we have any left in the house. Would going to 5 Mhz force n connection?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] AtoZ0to9:
Yes it would... connect to the 5Ghz side... and change the 2.4 radio to N only if you don't have anything G...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eduardo_b:
Okay, I did change to 5 Ghz and that fixed the problem, but now my Netgear Extender is unhappy. <sigh> This router doesn't offer yes or no for 2.4 when 5 is selected, but that may be because it's a fairly new model. Off to work on new issue. Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] AtoZ0to9:
Give both the networks different names, set the 2.4 back like it was, powercycle the extender...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eduardo_b:
Life should be so simple. I checked the specs and the problem is too obvious...it doesn't support 5 Ghz. Amazing as this is a current product. So I either buy one that does (this one was given me by the cable company to support their modem/router) or live with dropping down to g with S3. But why wouldn't phone simply connect to extender in n by default? Is there another place in phone to set default protocol?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eduardo_b:
Sorry, I think I'm confused on this. I checked question because that's what it was, not realizing that meant it had to be in Q&A. Don't know where that is relative to AT&T S3 section.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] AtoZ0to9:
My guess is the extended is only capable of G and the phone is connecting to that.... have to networks with 2 names... use the extended to repeat the 2.4 but connect the phone to the 5...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eduardo_b:
Actually, the extender runs n, but only at 2.4, and the modem/router can only run 2.4 or 5...don't see any dual-band capability. The extender does have a separate name. I suppose I could set phone for router and ignore extender, but how do I know if S3 is in n or g protocol? If not n, it will force router to g.

Report bugs.

About Fluid ROM:

Debloated

Based on TNT's R2 release.

Android 4.1.1

Build.prop fixed for better app discovery in Play Store

Pre Rooted

ClockWorkMod Recovery with touch interface included! - A tonne of thanks to Finless Bob for this.

WiFi, Bluetooth, audio, touch, everything working.

Very pretty Jelly Bean boot animation.

Ads blocked - Patched hosts file

APN bug fixed! Can use most modems without PPP Widget.

Added Holo Launcher HD (very smooth)

Added Titanium backup

Added PPP widget (Now use most unsupported modems with your tablet!)

Added Quick Boot - A very useful tool to reboot, shut down, and reboot your device to ClockWorkMod recovery.

Removed Asus weather

Notes:

Do not mess around with CWM if you don't know what you're doing

I recommend un-checking 'infinite scrolling' in drawer settings in Holo Launcher for a better experience

Use Titanium Backup to remove apps which came pre-installed. You can remove apps you installed normally.

Removing the bootanimation will speed up booting a little.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Deviant Ollam:
At the DerbyCon hacker conference this past weekend, a buddy and i were asked to give a presentation about unlocking and modding of Android phones. Naturally, it's well below the level of most folk here, but if you have a friend who is interested in this topic they might get a lot out of this video...

Roamer & Deviant - Welcome to NinjaTel, Press '2' To Activate Your Device Now

youtube [dot] com [slash] watch?v=gz4w1kS1fHs

(i don't post here often, i just read... so i can't make a direct link)​

... our original idea was just to claim a table in the hotel bar and offer to show people how to tweak their devices, just giving a helping hand in case newbies were apprehensive. Due to a last minute speaker cancellation, we were tapped to turn this into a full-on presentation. So, i rapidly put together slides and we grabbed a few spare devices and off we went.

The main crux of what we hoped to do with this presentation (which is NSFW, by the way) was convince newbies that it's not very hard or risky to do this. People should not be afraid to try.

This talk is geared towards the HTC One V because hundreds of them were given away at this past summer's DEFCON conference (which, if you don't know about that, google and read up on the Ninja Networks. it was amazing!)

So, perhaps someone will enjoy it. If it convinces just one more new person to try hacking their Android devices, mission accomplished. :D
