Hello every1

Just a few question, im not properly an expert on android, but I have stock rom, no modifications, I have 4.4.2, can I upgrade my version in any way?

I dont wanna unlock my bootloader cuz my warranty will be avoided.

Thx

hello, i post another message, i need some help please.

my SGP 4.2 YP-GI1 CW/XEG is locked on samsung logo with warning panel. I flash the CWM one time and i try to flash rom's and CM7 but all are failed.

After multiple flash i loose CWM and now i can,t reflash it !! WHY??

i think my problem's cames from a bad PIT file, this is the only file i can flash with odin and succès.(YP-G1Intl.pit) and i don't know if it is the good one for my player.

If someone have and idea for help me...... please.:(
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] drakonizer:
You should boot back into download mode, flash the PIT file, then the CWM kernel and if you're unable to flash any ROM with CWM, you should flash the stock ROM with ODIN.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
As drakonizer said, yes you should be able to get into download mode. The problem comes indeed from the fact that you're using a wrong pitfile (YP-G1 is SGP 4.0 whereas YP-GI1 is SGP 4.2) Maybe retrying with the good pit file should do the trick.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] drakonizer:
THANKS [MENTION=4217103]zaclimon[/MENTION] ! I am so sorry I misread YPG1 as YPGI1, please don't try to use that!

Here is a pit file you can use

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1324378&d=1347565906

...there is no PIT file that is uploaded for the INTL GP4.2, but I'm pretty sure that there is no difference between the US and INTL versions with respect to the PIT file...you can try anyway

hello and thank you to help me. I have flash with a new pit file and now it's good, i have CWM on the player ......:good:

But i try to flash a stock rom with odin and also the CM7.2 and all are failed.:(

i don't know why and what else i can do ? If someone have and idea...... Thank you.

i also try to install the .zip file via CWM and it is aborted........:(
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] troy5890:
Try something lower to flash if your found that to cm7.2
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] drakonizer:
You should flash your stock ROM with ODIN from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1884071

Since your device is not YP-GI1/XEF, you might break your wifi, but you can fix it with the files from the CWM kernel thread.

A bit of searching would have found you this guide http://androidxda.com/root-samsung-galaxy-s5-sm-g900p for how to root the G900P. Realy, wait for others to answer your question?

BTW you do need a sdcard if you want to flash roms, because if you data factory reset in recovery the internal sdcard should be wiped before you flash a new rom, unless you push a rom with adb or sideload from recovery.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krairo:
Thank you & sorry for not searching. I've used ADB & recovery but its been about 2 years since I've touched them.

So if I'm understanding this right. I would be able to for example.

Wipe with recovery or ADB. And use recovery to enter usb mode. Drag & drop the ROM. And install from there correct?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Best is to place and use a sdcard to put the rom on. First you have to flash a custom recovery through Odin on your pc though, i personaly recomend Philz Touch recovery if available for your phone. Once installed you can flash other roms or kernels. No need to root first as all custom roms are pre-rooted. Make a backup pf your current rom before you flash a new one, just to be safe.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krairo:
Okay thats good to know. I planned to root just to get the free wifi tethering so I'll go order one right now. Thank you for filling me in on the S5.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] David.Dunbar:
My Sprint GS3 is on 4.1.2 MC3 with root. It is the 32GB version with a 64GB external. Without a 32GB GS5 on the horizon from Sprint I want to upgrade this phone. Each time I come to xda I read for hours then bail on the upgrade. I work for myself and do not need to interface with any work related networks or email, so apparently I have no need for KNOX. Do I need to fear the new bootloader?

Should I find a path to upgrade to 4.3 without KNOX or just go ahead with the recent near stock (KNOX-free) ROM? I don't have time to play with other custom ROM's but want root and free wifi tether, along with the ability to remove bloat.

The various ROM threads are generally over a hundred pages of posts and I also do not have time to read through an entire thread before taking action. Can someone point me to a good near Stock rooted ROM?

Thanks for helping me decide an ROM upgrade path.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I don't know if we have a tar of the latest stock 32GB compatible ROM. I know some have used Odin and a PIT file made for a 32GB variant to Odin the latest stock ND8 (TouchWiz 4.4.2) tar.

Odining the 16GB tar on a 32GB phone without the PIT file will make it into a 16GB phone.

The 32GB tar might be available somewhere, but I don't think it is on XDA.

Then you could flash [MENTION=4645794]CNexus[/MENTION]' stock but rooted ROM available in the development (non-original) section.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] David.Dunbar:
You have given me more research, and thank you as it looks like without it I could have wound up with half my memory. Off to find the PIT file and more knowledge.

[Edit] > searched for PIT file as well as combinations of 32GB in the Development forum to no avail. I'll go to a custom ROM if I have to in order to keep my internal 32GB. I am still at a loss for an upgrade path. I see that there might be a 4.3 variant that pre-dates KNOX but it is rumored to be an international version which is apparently to be avoided. I don't care about warranty etc so should I really only look at the latest 4.4.2 ROM that has what I want? Basically stock rooted hotspot with the ability to delete bloat including non-needed KNOX apps.

I need a Senior Member who can act as a guide and help me decide what to flash and how to do it. I am happy to compensate such a guide for their time. Thanks in advance for any advise.

Need a mentor

Ouch! I drafted a well thought out question in Cnexus' [STOCK ROM][4.4] ND8 Kitkat ROM thread on Development and it vaporized because I have less than 10 posts to xda. I managed to root my Sprint GS3 and get wifi hotspot after asking only one question but my current upgrade path is more complicated. I have this [Q] thread that is not seen by many. I want to ask Cnexus if his DN8 ROM will preserve the 32GB internal space on my GS3.

If it does then I think I have read enough to upgrade to his ROM. I do not have time to read all 112 pages of posts. I have searched the thread and did not find the answer. I am happy to compensate via paypal a Senior Member or Developer for their time to help me figure out which ROM, downloads and the flash method.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Like I said, I don't know if what you need is even on XDA. I know there are people in these S3 sections who had the same problem but they found their solution elsewhere. I'd have to search myself in order to find the answer for you.

If I were you, I wouldn't use XDA's search in hopes of finding your solution.

I would Google for:

SPH-L710 32GB PIT

or

SPH-L710 32GB ND8 tar

You only need one or the other. The PIT file, in combination with the stock ND8 tar, which we do offer in development but which has been reported that without the 32GB PIT file, it'll format your phone to 16GB.

I'm not trying to be rude but all you would've had to read was the first post of [MENTION=4645794]CNexus[/MENTION] stock ND8 ROM thread - the part that says it's a requirement that you already have either OTA'd or Odined the stock ND8 tar. All ND8 ROMs require that, flashing them without Odining the tar in your case will either result in a temporarily non-working phone, or worse.

32GB PIT file located

Again, thanks for the help. Google search found a few possibilities but this xda post seems the most relevant. It has a PIT file for 32GB that Dees_Troy used to fix a phone that flashed to 16GB restoring it to 32GB.

I need a more knowledgeable member to help with the procedure. I know that's not what xda is all about, we are supposed to read several posts of hundreds of pages and compile a procedure list from that. Then implement it and fly or crash. I don't have the time but I do have money. I would gladly pay pal a customary amount of cash to someone who creates a thread with instructions. They might just get a bunch of likes from others on the forums by doing so. Hold harmless clause etc.

I did see CNexus' requirement of already being ND8. I guess that his ROM will preserve 32GB since it would already be configured that way.

I will read the stock ND8 tar thread to see if I can figure out where to put the PIT file and what to do in what order. Hopefully the answer is in there or someone will offer to help.

Thanks again for pointing the way.

[EDIT] > Another option might be to un-root my phone, take the OTA, then root using the modern methods. I followed QBKing77's instructions to root back when and he still has the Un-root video.

Thank you! I do not see a donate icon on your profile like i see on some others. In the mean time the PIT file I referenced is a broken link. I will have to locate one by searching. Apparently I can not PM the OP to see if he has it. Perhaps my post count is too low.

SPH-L710, yes, although it's possible someone has an i by accident. Especially if they have shp instead of SHP. Couldn't find the ND8 tar in development here? Or do you mean the 32GB tar, which wouldn't need the PIT file.

I could not find the 32GB tar for ND8 that does not require the PIT file. That should be easiest to get to ND8 stock non-rooted for my 32GB then I can root. I am reluctant to use a PIT file that we are not certain is correct but a known good 32GB tar should get me where I need to be prior to root.

These are the correct PIT files linked to from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52795178

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] David.Dunbar:
Cover me, I'm going in.

Concerns:

If someone calls while in Odin does it crash the process?

Do I need to wipe anything manually before starting?

I have backed up via Keys (old version). I assume it will restore many of my settings.

Here are the steps that I compiled from your instructions:

Loading Stock ND8

1 – Run Odin v3.07 as administrator

2 – Load L710VPUCND8_L710SPRCND8_L710VPUCND8_HOME.tar in the Recovery slot

3 – Load sph-i710-32gb.pit into the PIT slot

4 – Check ‘re-partition’ box and wait for next steps to establish phone connection.

5 – Phone off. Enter download mode by holding down Vol Down, Home and Power to first screen presence

6 – Enter download mode by moving cursor – Vol Up.

7 – Plug phone into PC. Drivers are already installed so look for Connection in Odin.

8 – Start Odin on good battery charge. Don’t touch phone until complete, 5-10min.

9 – Close Odin, disconnect cable from phone, turn phone off and remove battery.

Rooting via philz touch recovery

1 – Put battery back in and enter download mode as above.

2 – Run Odin as administrator and load philz_touch_6.15.7-d2lte.tar.md5 in the Recovery slot

3 – Uncheck box to prevent automatic reboot.

4 – Plug in phone to PC and watch for Odin to establish connection, ~COM:5

5 – Start Odin. It will be quick.

6 – When done close Odin. Unplug phone, Power Down and remove battery.

7 – Replace battery and enter Recovery Mode by holding Vol Up, Home and Power to first screen presence

8 – Let Philz load and cursor to options/settings and choose re-root option.

9 – When done navigate to Philz main menu and wipe Cache.

10 – In Advanced, wipe Dalvik

11 – Philz main menu to reboot phone.

Here is a list of the files and executables I am working with:

Odin_v3.07.zip

L710VPUCND8_L710SPRCND8_L710VPUCND8_HOME.tar.zip

sph-i710-32gb.pit

philz_touch_6.15.7-d2lte.tar.md5

Sprint_L710_GSIII_Samsung_USB_Driver_v1_4_6_0.exe

Do you see any holes in this procedure? If you think it is good to go then I ill launch on it and hopefully be done in an hour or so. Then I will need to get hotspot working and restore files and settings from my Kies backup.

Running bilgerryan's DeBloatifier/DeKnoxer removes the following apps I use:

Dropbox.apk

Gmail2.apk

GoogleSearchWidget.apk

Youtube.apk

Can I add those guys back in? I see he has just the De-Knox app remover but that leaves a the rest of the crap. I should not lean on you for this as you have helped me so much. I will go through his thread and see what to do.

Thanks for your patience and great help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
No, because you won't even have Android loaded. You'll be in Download mode.

No.

I don't use Kies; I don't know anything about it. Android should restore some of your stock settings if you have the option at in Android to Backup and Restore your settings. It does it once you set up your Gmail account and let it sync everything.

It'll install most or all apps you had loaded, too, albeit without their settings.

I use Titanium Backup, personally.

4.1 - Uncheck the reboot option in Odin.

Removing the battery is the only way to turn it off at this point. Not exactly true but that's all you need to know. It's the best way.

You've got it! No problem adding back any app you want from the Play Store or elsewhere.

FYI there's a hotspot thread in development, if there's an Odex version, which I think there is and it'll be what you need.

You're welcome!

Success

Everything has gone smoothly with the ND8 and now the philz root. When i used philz to re-root it re-booted before I could clear cache and the file in advanced. It is loading my apps etc so when that is done I will go back into recovery and wipe the cache and the other file in Advanced. Then I will de-Bloat and fix the wifi hotspot.

[EDIT] Got the hotspot working but failed on the de-bloat. Used Titanium to freeze some unwanted stuff but I will look at the de-bloat closer to see what i did wrong. I commented out a few apps in a text editor. Got my programs backed up and all is good.

I really appreciate the xda forums and roirraW "edor" ehT in particular. Now I can continue with my 32GB GS3 on ND8 for a while. I qualify for an upgrade but will wait for better devices to be offered.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Awesome. I'm glad it went as planned. The cache and Dalvik cache thing was really only an option, and only really as a preventative measure to keep the phone from bootlooping as sometimes that happens after Odining a stock ROM, but I forgot that re-root reboots the phone automatically.

Wiping Cache and Dalvik never hurt and sometimes fix weird issues, it only causes the first boot after to take longer.

Cheers!

FYI, you could just flash a custom ROM based on ND8. They're all good, and all debloated to different levels.

You're welcome again! ☺
