ok. I was just d/ling v1.2 to see what happens. edit: Scatch that. I tried switching from cw to twrp recovery to see if that would help and it didn't.

Edit 2: tried v1.2 with twrp recovery and it hangs too. I must be an idiot. I've flashed a hundred times with my EVO, but 0 for 5 with this phone... I think I'll just go to bed - I won't care what rom my phone is running tomorrow anyway... those damn Mayans!

On another note. I went with 1337 prl. It's the first time I've been able to watch a YouTube vid on 3g with no hiccups. I highly recommend this to all. Head to QB's channel and give him a thumbs up, and subscribe if you haven't already! :thumbup:

Again, thanks for the help.

But same kinda problem. When I do what you suggested, on reboot, it gets to the splash screen and after about 10 seconds it puts me back to Team Win Recovery. ( While I waited I did try Peoples Rom and the results were the same)

edit: I tried the prescribed procedure a second time and this time it just hung at the splash screen - didn't cycle back to recovery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 1brainsurgeon:
Though it's a PITA, I would recommend going back to stock un~rooted and start over.

Sent from my SPH-L710 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JinB:
I was afraid that was what you were gonna say. I might just stay stock for a while. Stock isn't that bad, I just like to change it up every so often. I do appreciate the effort. Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Skunk Ape1:
While I hate to say this, I have seen this happen to a couple of guys now and they have the same issue. Can't flash any roms. So what I want you to check (you can only check out while rooted) to see if you have an empty efs folder. Did you make a nandroid of your stock rooted phone. If so, I would like you to restore it.

Then using a root file explorer such as esfile explorer look for your efs folder. If it is empty I know how you can fix it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ImEVO:
Are you doing this on wicked rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 1brainsurgeon:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thekrautdog:

(ahem...I hope one of these was what you meant)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 1brainsurgeon:
Its common. I had to do it 5 times before it stuck. Make sure you update your prl before proceeding. Also, make sure you're on wifi.

Sent from my SPH-L710 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ImEVO:
OK so I can only get the Verizon's to stick all the others is a no go... doesn't drain battery a bit faster?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Skunk Ape1:
Also if you go back to stock you will need to go back to the Sprint prl first. If you don't your phone may start getting a SIM card not found error and you may not be able to connect at all.

I know this is the case when you change msl. Not entirely sure about the prl but I would just in case.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JinB:
I found it, it doesn't appear to be empty.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 1brainsurgeon:
Agreed. To go back to sprint prl, go into system updates and update prl

Well play with it tonight. Perhaps I'll go back to stock and have a look around. At least imei is there....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JinB:
Question... I originally was using CW to flash. Since that was not working I went with TWRP recovery. So my earliest backup is with CW. How would I go back to CW to restore that backup? TWRP has "taken over" the recovery process, but I still see CW there. I want to boot in to CW... if that makes sense.

Hey all!

So I'm gonna join the S3 club in a few days to replace my limping E4GT. Looking for a nice smooth slick ROM, really loving what I see on this thread, can't wait to try it!

Just wondering - I understand the AOSP roms are missing features like nfc... Just wanted to ask if there's any features missing from the TW roms like this one. I swear I've read and searched... all I see is theme discussions, which I take to mean the core rom is solid. Yes? Just wondering if there's any reason to play with the phone stock or if I should flash this right away... 'cause I want to! ;)

Thanks Dazed and everyone for all your contributions to this thread.... it's gotta be one of the best rom threads I've ever read. Two hundred something pages and everyone is still getting along and working together lol...

So what is this about the Verizon PRL? I knew somewhat about it back on my OG Evo. The impression I got is a lot of people were getting Sprint letters for abusing roaming data and threatened with loosing Sprint service.

I hate Sprints data where I live. Its atrocious. I don't do much data when I'm out and about. I usually am on wifi at home or work. But when I need data when I'm out, its embarassingly slow. I see Verizon on my girls iPhone and the data is crazy fast.

So, is there a way for me to force Verizon PRL and not worry about being booted from Sprint since I don't use data that often?

If so, how do I do this?

Thanks,

Whiteice

He could try that but I've never seen that restore the efs folder before. I've seen this happen only 4 times before and in two of those cases they lost their meid and of course could no longer connect to services.

The other two while they could connect they couldn't load any roms other than the one they were on when the folder was lost... all four of those devices lost their efs folder while flashing ports.

The two that lost their meid were both sent out to to the same place and fixed for $30.

The two that still have their meid are still in use but can't seem flash any roms.

Nice seasonal wp for AnaKonda...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] WhiteiceDMSTech:
So is this still working good for you?

I really am so close to doing this. If I am on the Verizon PRL, is that mean all my internet and also phone calls are on roaming? I don't know why, but for some reason I was thinking if I was on Verizon PRL, it was just for data IE. surfing the net, streaming videos but not phone calls.

Thanks,

You will be using both voice and data on Verizon. It's important that you use more Sprint than you do Verizon...even if it's only 1mb. That said, the difference is night and day. From 0-1 bars and 200down on Sprint to 4-5 bars and 1300-1700 down on Verizon. Be careful, real 3g is very addicting :D

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thekrautdog:
Hey bud quick question...How do we still use more Sprint than Verizon after changing the PRL? I thought changing the PRL meant voice and data now go through Verizon instead of Sprint...like, all of it. Do we have to keep changing back and forth? I've definitely been enjoying a better signal in my apptmt since swapping, whereas I used to occasionally lose signal and drop a call if I was moving room to room while on the phone. But I don't know I think I'd just stay on Sprint if this is something that needs constant maintenance.

Many Thanks if you have any further advice :cool:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 1brainsurgeon:

I've been on JellyBomb for a while, until sometime last week when I decided to flash this again. It's just pure amazing, also it reminded me of how much I loved the Updater from Rujelus first brought it into his ROM (Epic 4G Touch). Everything is just great and outstanding. I really like JellyBomb, hence why I've been on it for so long, but very glad I went back to this again. They are both different, with their own unique touches and the options are awesome. With the pink theme, it'll sure be nice for the ladies. My cousin and his fiance recently got this phone with Sprint (mainly because of me) and this ROM will be great for them, her pink/him blue. I'll enjoy putting it on their phones, and seeing the reactions. I'll probably be doing the same for my brother.
