[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
I installed the universal driver and I can say, it works perfect on Win8 and I have used it perfectly on about 6 different phones now with zero issues.

I will be updating this in the next day or so not that the universal driver pack has been released. No need for brand specific drivers anymore. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] Sloth:
Hi I added your guide to my FAQ Guide Q19 Thanks for posting :D
[HTC EVO 3D] NoClemency:
Same question. Is there a way to set this up with USB 3.0 or do we have to use USB 2.0? Thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] TechnoHacker:
Yeah I tried with both a USB 2.0 and 3.0 Port. No luck with fastboot.

ADB works but fastboot doesn't, weird. Until we can find a solution, I'm just going to use another laptop for fastboot commands :(
[HTC EVO 3D] tommy_riley:
My laptop only has USB 3.0 ports. I was having a HECK of a time trying to root my phone with Windows 8 (reboot into bootloader/recovery mode and device no longer recognized when connected to PC.)

I followed the procedures at the link below to replace my Windows 8 USB3.0 drivers with Intel USB3.0 drivers and my EVO 4G LTE started to be recognized in bootloader mode:

plugable.com/2012/12/01/windows-8-and-intel-usb-3-0-host-controllers

(im junior so I cannot post links, add http above... ;) )

this solved a lot of problems for me :)

p.s. have not noticed any other issues with other things connected via USB with these Intel drivers either...been using them for months.

UPDATE - Intel now has official USB3.0 drivers for Windows 8/8.1 on their website, so you don't need to go through the long convoluted process at the link above to get the drivers installed - just head over to Intel's website and download the USB3.0 intel drivers (provided you have intel chipset) and you should be good to go.
[HTC EVO 3D] dedon4christ5:
Thanks a whole Lot

Thanks a Bunch, It worked like Charm, i love my windows 8 wouldn't want to downgrade because drivers... Thanks again :)

Have no idea what im doing wrong, i have a custom built pc with windows 8.1, and a htc one with a custom 4.4 kitkat rom :crying:
[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
So what is your having trouble with? This guide is kind of old news now. Just go get the universal driver pack and be done with it.

[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
I dont know what to tell you but in my experience fastboot on the Evo3D wont work right out the box and you need to flash an hboot that has the fastboot commands enabled. I had to anyways cause I couldnt use the fastboot commands but I never had hboot 1.40 from the start and was able to get s-off while remaining locked (big plus!!!). My computer did see the phone though when in fastboot mode so not sure what your issue is. Try a different USB cable maybe.

Anyways, the first post is pretty much old and outdated and a crude way of doing things now. Had you looked up a few posts (Post 32 - Click here) you will see that there is a simple installer now and has been for a while and it works great. I have used it on 3 computers without any issues.

[Galaxy S III General] Puenos:
AWESOME!

Ty for your great work guys! :)

so in theory we could not only boot any ROM from SD to unbrick, but also boot Linux natively from our SD card instead of chrooting in?
[Galaxy S III General] wwjoshdew:
Leave it to Adam and other Elite Developers to find such awesomeness! It's great to know that you can't truly hard brick a phone. And running ANY rom you want from the sdcard? That sounds freaking awesome!

[Galaxy S III General] theq86:
Just some questions to get the picture.

1. EMMC Disable hardware mod (can be undone later)

This would be a semi-permanent resistor shortening (same as we would do when following the instructions of the official samsung unbrick guide) or am I wrong?

3. attempting to rework GS3 Ramdisk for SDCard boot.

What ramdisk do you mean? do you want to boot a rom from sd or a custom bootloader from sd?
[Galaxy S III General] colang:
Love your work guys think u will be going down in The History Of The Galaxy S3 lol

Keep up the goods
[Galaxy S III General] AdamOutler:
Yes and the ramdisk needs to be reworked for uboot and booting from SDCard.

I'd appreciate it if you guys kept the "thanks" to a minimum.. I need a device to work with. Nothing has been done for GS3 yet and nothing will until we get a device. Extra posts make people think that something's already happened. It hasn't. I need a device.

I suggest crowd funding. Add a donate button, i will give 10 $. 49 sponsors needed left.
[Galaxy S III General] sodeknetters:
I'll pledge to this as well. Perhaps we dont need 500, because a used s3 can be obtained for less, and if I understood correctly adam can even work with a "sudden death" victim?
[Galaxy S III General] drraptor:
+1 :good:

He requires a SDS(sudden death syndrome) Galaxy S3. We can even ask a SDS victims to sell his device to adam instead of sending it for a repair. The money can for this can be generated through crowd funding . :)
[Galaxy S III General] thegh0sts:
i like the idea and hope it will be turned into a tool kit for those situations as the S3 SDS can potentially affect any S3.

[Galaxy S III General] dimi22:
But do you have any idea how the phones brick every time?

And do you think every device will be affected?

and is there something to do about it.

[Galaxy S III General] WoodpeckerS:
Bricked Samsung I9300 International

Hello!

I had installed Omega ROM 35 with Siyah 1.86 and it worked perfectly well until for few days ago it would not restart and was hanging on the Siyah logo.

The phone could enter CWM but there were no menu and it restarted after a few minutes into that failing CWM mode.

Now the phone shows the following menu: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.

The phone can still go into Odin Mode.

I have tried to flash Stock ROM 4.04 and 4.12 to the phone but PC Odin Fails. I also have tried to flash CWM recovery separately as well as kernels throgh PC odin separately but all fails. I have flashed a new PIT-file later on but still failing to flash stock ROM.

I wonder if it might help to flash a new Bootloader or do anything else. I am greatful to any ideas to revive the phone.

Thanx

Is there a chance that this will work on Note II as well since they share the same Exynos 4412 chip, right?
[Galaxy S III General] hp420:
Wow, this is amazing!!! This reminds me of the way you can create a virtual environment on an sd card or usb drive for wii. You can run any homebrew you wish while doing this, all without ever putting the actual wii system menu at risk!

Great job guys!!! I've already come up with about a dozen practical uses for this!!! :D

I do have one question, though.....

would it be a possibility to port this to other manufacturers?
[Galaxy S III General] mfsr98:
First off all, awesome job Adam (2012 is not over so this is the best news for me :) )

Adam, are you reverse engineering here? Almost all WinMo deviced had HaRET (Handheld Reverse Engineering Tool) so they could boot Android from the SD card.

I always asked myself why nobody developed Windows Phone for Android devices and there you have it :D
[Galaxy S III General] EclipseX:
windows phone on android devices? sorry you can't.....the reason is because windows phone is a close source, and you cant do some drivers for screen sound 3g etc....they have proper drivers.....

but what you can do with that new tool.....dual boot xD with another linux/android system :P...and thats a cool option

problably we will got Oficial Cyogen :P

[Galaxy S III General] mfsr98:
The HD2 got Windows Phone and it came with WinMo originally (don't relate, totally different OS'es). The thing is that the HD2 is very similar to the HD7 (first Windows Phone), so they got the drivers from there. I think Exynos would not be supported on Windows Phone but maybe other CPUs, like Snapdragon (the HD2 has it). Devs can try porting from HTC 8x, 8s and lumias. Of course, as you said, Windows Phone is not fully Open Source so it would be hard or impossible.

[Galaxy S III General] hillbeast:
Do you plan on implementing this on the Galaxy S2 as well, or will only the Exynos 4 Quad devices see this? There's probably a lot of S2 users who got caught out by brickbug that would most likely love to donate towards getting you an S2 so we could get this working on that too.

I don't have brick bug but I would still donate anyway.

[Galaxy S III General] dtrail1:
Really great news! That's an interesting thing, could this work also for other devices in a similar way? I am thinking about the Moto Razr...

Edit: Ok, I don't think so! Motorola uses an encryption for their bootloader and partitions which seems "uncrackable", no chance to run a custom bl, also I guess the secure certificate is different for each Moto device. And if Moto uses secure signatures for anything I guess the phone itself doesn't accept another bootloader (signature verification). I don't know that much aqbout this stuff, so I can be wrong...

And sorry for placing this here in SGS3 section!

I tried to flash a CWM recovery through CWM recovery as a zip and hard bricked my phone. If I loan my phone to this cause, will it end up being returned to me, fixed? Or even returned at all and use what you learn to fix it myself? It's a Verizon GS3, btw.

P.S.

The screen is cracked and I don't think they'd replace it under warranty, been working fine for months on broken screen though.

P.S.S.

I feel so dumb... Verizon is not Exynos :/ I REALLY should have known because that angered me when I had originally heard of the US variants of this phone... Sorry everybody.
