This one worked fine for me about a month ago. Verify the md5sum on the next download and it will save you some trouble. The fact that the file is 1.5 GB is probably why there is no mirror. Also, the middle of the night is the best time to download stuff, usually get faster speed and less congestion;)

The link in the OP worked fine for me late last night. Took a bit over an hour to dl but it's a big file.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Greek81:
Odin says MD5 hash is invalid.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Again that means YOUR md5 doesn't match the built-in verification (so you don't flash a bad file to your phone and brick it). You have a bad download. ReDownload the file, preferably on a PC.

I redownloaded for the 4rth time lol it finally worked. Thank you guys for the help I really appreciate it. Is this only for sprint, or will it work for t-mobile ? I rooted a friend's phone too with t-mobile and he needs it back to stock for warranty purposes too. So my question is will this work for the T-Mobile SGH-T999L ??

NO!

Is there a way 2 reset the flash counter back to 0 after using a custom rom? Does triangle away work on Android 4.3?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jdsingle76:
Did you flash this tar and then a custom rom? If so, the warranty counter is tripped and irreversible. If you're just asking about TA support on 4.3, then yes, it can reset flash counter. But if you're on 4.3 and have Knox, you're tripped, forever :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] capadon:
I have a replaced s3. I have not flashed this phone just yet. Are u saying as long i dont flash this rom and then a custom rom i can reset the flash count? Also is there a way to go back to one of the android 4.1 versions? What is TA support and knox?

If I root my phone only and have to un root my phone for repair, can they determine that my phone has been rooted before?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xxSTARBUCKSxx:
Not when done properly, no. If you've tripped Knox, you're out of luck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jdsingle76:
If you are on 4.3 or 4.4.2 with Knox, yes, they will know. Rooting will trip the warranty counter, which is irreversible, thus both voiding your warranty and letting Sammy know you tinkered with your phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] capadon:
what is knox?

The flash counter and warranty bit are two separate things.

Yes, Triangle Away still resets the flash counter on 4.3 and 4.4.

The warranty bit isn't reflected in this screen shot but it is shown as "1" in Download mode.

I am trying to fix my wife's phone using this. I don't know what software revision it was and now I can't check because the phone doesn't turn on. I can get to the bootloader though. It appears that it has Knox, since I see the "warranty bit:0" line.

I downloded several of the images in this thread, and Odin 3.07. Odin seems to work but the image doesn't work on the phone; the bootloader says "SW REV CHECK FAIL: Fused 2 > Binary 1"

After that Odin gives a FAILED message

Can anyone help please?

Also here are the Odin messages:

FWIW I took the phone to a Sprint store, the tech played with it for a few minutes, connected it with a cable to something under the counter, put it in bootloader mode, fiddled with it a few more minutes then raised his shoulders and gave it back to me saying there's nothing he can do to fix the phone. It was never rooted or tinkered with in any way until yesterday morning all of a sudden it wouldn't turn on anymore. The battery checked good.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Well it says the md5sum is invalid. Meaning you have a bad download. Just redownload and try again. The more stable the internet connection the better as this is a very large file.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
First, take the battery it out for at least an hour, overnight if you can, put the battery back in and see if you can get into Download mode.

If it can, try to Odin this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2741413 instead.

If her phone received the OTA to 4.4.2, then you can't downgrade to 4.3. And trying to sometimes hard bricks phones. Some have been lucky and Odin just never succeeded in installing it and they were able to Odin 4.4.2 just fine.

Hopefully the long battery pull helps, it's worked for some but not some others.

It's helped me before, too.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jh1523:
Like I said above, I can get to download mode and have already tried Odin, but it fails for some cause that I can't understand. Please see my post above for details. I will try the ND8 restore you linked to, hopefully this will work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
The last thing you said was that it won't turn on anymore, that's why I advised pulling the battery and letting it stay out for a while. I know it sounds stupid but it really does help sometimes.

And then I linked you to the more recent version of Android. It's not Odin that's likely the problem, it's what you're trying to Odin. Like [MENTION=4310299]bilgerryan[/MENTION] said, you're MD5 of your downloaded tar is bad, but since you don't know what bootloader you were on, if you try to Odin MK3 (4.3) and you have the ND8 (4.4.2) bootloader already on there, it will likely brick your device. It's happened several times to people on here recently including developers. Once on the 4.4.2 bootloader you can never ever use Odin to flash an older version of Android. I'm only suggesting it as a precaution. If you or anyone can tell from your information that it's an MK3 bootloader, then go for it.

I just don't want you to brick your phone once you get a good download of the stock Android tar you try.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jh1523:
Well, that worked. Odin didn't complain about ND8 and the flash completed successfully, the phone boots and works normally. Too bad about all of the phone numbers she lost (it was synced with gmail, but that saved only the email addresses not the phone numbers). Maybe I'll teach her again how to make a backup, although the previous 11 or so times I did it was useless. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] marcran75:
Whenever you sign in to your Google acct. it asks if you want Google to backup and auto-restore your info. Every time I flash a new rom Google automatically restores all of my contacts for me. Can't remember the last time I had to manually restore them.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jh1523:
Yes, but for some reason it backed up only the email addresses, not the phone numbers.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] marcran75:
Have you checked your contact settings under "contacts to display"?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Glad it got it working.

Maybe she had contacts saved to the Samsung account instead of to Google? Or to the phone?

The ROM in running is based on stock but is very modified, so probably why Samsung isn't showing here:

There is also an option to save your contacts to your sdcard via the import/export feature. Doesn't help in this instance but it's something to remember for next time.

And I dont care about knox or the counter...its my phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jdsingle76:
As long as you've never updated to the Kk 4.4 boot loader, then yes, you can
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DuceTheTruth:
thank you very much for the speedy reply.

Or you can go with ND8, especially if you don't care about Knox. I think KK is a lot better than MK3.

Odin'd this ROM--ended up KNOX'd. Did I do something wrong, or...?

Hey, gang. Noob here, hoping to learn from his mistakes, and figure out where I went wrong pushing this ROM to my sponged phone a week ago! (An SPH-L710)

I was in a bootloop, and frantically searched for a stock ROM to push. I ended up here, after trying to download a couple that were going to take 10 hours or something to arrive...

Phone came back to life (Yay!) but I noticed I now had a red "warranty flag (?)" that was set to "1". SuperSU also notified me that it found KNOX on the phone... Drat.

To be honest, I wasn't sure what I should look for in a stock ROM. The "MK3" in the name caught my eye--but I thought that had something to do with the kind of modem it had...? (For some reason, now, I think that may have NOTHING to do with the modem--but I'm not really sure why.)

Did I chose the 'wrong' stock ROM, or did I do something wrong (or fail to PREVENT something) that resulted in my KNOXedness?? I'm really unclear on what happened--and hope to learn so I don't ever do whatever it was again! :eek:

Thanks in advance!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
MK3 and ND8 (4.3 and 4.4) both have Knox, it won't effect your device in any way other than that number. I have a Knox app removal tool- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52465147

My ROM: WICKED X
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wilberfan:
So the ROM CAME with knox. Lucky me. I've since custom ROMd the phone (LiquidSmooth); does your removal tool remove knox--or just knox apps (whatever those are) from the stock ROM?

Appreciate the help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Only Knox Apps, there is no way to remove Knox from the bootloader. And again, it doesn't effect anything with the use of your device. And the Knox Apps were what SuperSU was referring to.

My ROM: WICKED X
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wilberfan:
Well, that's a relief (I think). There are no scenarios where I have to be super careful (flashing modems, etc), lest I brick my beloved beast?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Do not try to downgrade your Modem or Firmware. You are on 4.3, you can only Odin 4.3 stuff or ND8 (4.4) stuff. And if you go to ND8, the same applies. So if you upgrade you can't go back. But you can flash any ROM either way. Just don't use Odin unless you're gonna upgrade and you won't brick.

My ROM: WICKED X
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wilberfan:
Okay, good. That's helpful.

So any future stock ROM pushes to the phone via odin need to be at LEAST 4.3? And if I use an ND8 stock ROM, then THAT becomes my new 'baseline'? Why have I seen some threads that offer bootloader AND modem .zip files--and would those be dangerous to flash? Or do I need to just make sure THOSE are at least 4.3??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Yes. I would personally avoid them. If you're gonna upgrade do it right and use the full ND8 tar. And then you can use ND8 ROMs, but other than that, if you're gonna use AOSP then you might as well stay where you're at.

My ROM: WICKED X
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wilberfan:
No danger in flashing JUST modems? Most of the AOSP builds this month were having data connectivity issues with older modems (I had a G2). I keep reading suggestions to flash some newer modems. (I'm assuming modems are a separate thing from bootloaders??) Thank for your ongoing help (and patience!)... :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
DO NOT FLASH A MODEM WITHOUT THE FIRMWARE.. They used to be interchangeable but that is no longer the case.

My ROM: WICKED X
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wilberfan:
Yikes. Good to know. Pushing this ROM seems to have changed me from a Baseband version of L710VPAMG2 to L710VPUCMK3. Does that mean I know have the....MK3 modem?

Yes indeed

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Well first I sincerely hope you aren't on ND8 trying to go back to MK3. IF SO, STOP NOW. You cannot downgrade your firmware. Secondly the usual reasons for Odin failure is either a bad cable or bad port on the computer.

got a replacement phone on the old update (yay!!) and never even thought about it updating because i figured there had to be something out for the new update by now... had the phone for 2 days and woke up the morning after a good drunk (hung over like a mofo) and was trying to send a text when the update popped up and i hit yes.... so 98.30.1.xt907 is what im on now and appears to be an epic fail at this point lol

my bootloader is locked and 4G is the only internet out in my area so im not paying verizon $100 a month for internet again... so my questions.

I dont really need root if i can use mobile hotspot or foxfi or w/e wifi app for free. Id pay for the app if it unlocked the ability to use mobile hotspot...is it possible and is there one out there?

If i cant do it without root is there one out there for the new update (searched this hard far and wide doesnt look good)

If there is no hope of free mobile hotspot on this phone what are a couple newer 4g phones through verizon i could buy (still on the old unlimited plan)

thanks for any help
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
Unfortunately, you can't root that system version. There is the entitlement hack for people that are still on the unlimited plan, but I think you need to be rooted to modify the build.prop. With that being said, I'm not sure about all the phones that Verizon offer, but the HD and M were both updated at the same time and that update blocked root. The X can be rooted and you should be able to run the hack on that. However, you'll have to pay full price since you're going to upgrade off contract.
