Too late. Think I just bricked it too, OTA update failed so it probably wasn't just you.

Correction: I was able to get back to 4.2.2, I used PDA instead of Phone in ODIN. My guess is that the bootloader has to be flashed first before reverting to 4.2.2. However I did a clean wipe many times before so I'm not sure if it did that, in your case it would not be preferred.

I'm seriously sick over this bootloader BS, enough to never buy a Samsung electronic device ever again. Or deal with AT&T in any capacity ever again.

[MENTION=5246982]SamsungSupport[/MENTION] gave me a pretty good "we don't care" conversation: https://twitter.com/SamsungSupport/status/507252356657184768
[Galaxy S III Mini General] quakeaz:
How did you manage that? I stupidly tried to downgrade with Odin and have a soft-brick on my hands. I've tried everything I can think of. I wish SamMobile had the 4.4.2 firmware.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Deonta23:
Update made the phone slower and laggy. Someone needs to find a working root method :(
[Galaxy S III Mini General] KoolKid98189:
We can't because the chip in the S3 mini was made by ST Ericsson which have gone bust so they can't provide us with any kernel sources. Not even 4.2.2!
[Galaxy S III Mini General] quakeaz:
So I assume if we bricked trying to downgrade we are pretty much screwed?

I've tried numerous things. I finally got recovery working again by converting 4.2.2's recovery.img to a tar.md5 and flashing with odin, the 4.4.2 OTA zip provided in this thread fails though, can't stat build.prop.

Went to BestBuy Samsung experience center today, they only have 4.2.2 firmware. Looking at SamMobile, it seems a lot of AT&T's firmwares are OTA only? I don't see that they have many of any of the AT&T phone's firmwares except the original release.

What about flashing a G730W8 (Rogers, Canada) 4.4.2 firmware? Probably a bad idea, but I read here on XDA of it being done with the AT&T S3 i747...
[Galaxy S III Mini General] quakeaz:
Good news?

If anybody has bricked trying to downgrade... as of this morning 4.4.2 is available from Samsung.

Downloading now with 10 hours to go...

I will report back tonight after I get off work if it succeeds or not.

I can confirm that this does work! Thank you! It would still be nice to be able to go back to 4.2.2 so I could root but I guess I'll live :laugh:

For the past two days I've been trying to update my s3 mini(g730a) but for some reason it doesn't seem to be working. It will download and goes to restart and it will give me a message about the "install interrupted" and "The software update could not be installed." I was wondering if anyone has been having the same problem.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Russ77:
this update is available via KIES now. I have a s3 mini as my work phone. I'd rooted it, had since unrooted, but still couldn't take the OTA. rather than doing a full odin stock flash I waited until KIES update was available.

it worked flawlessly. I now have an un-rooted, fully functioning 4.4.2 S3 mini with no loss of user data or settings.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] t0ne420:

Official new versions:

Android version: 4.4.2

Is there another good ROM (official or not) for my phone?

Hey guys, thanks for the info, it's a good deal. Quick question, I signed for serve and did receive my credit, but tried using ISIS twice and both times the transaction was declined. Could you use your credit right away or did you have to wait to receive your Serve card and activate it to use these $50?

Well, I broke the screen on my XT912 yesterday and usually you can still use the phone with a cracked screen but for some reason I lost all use of the phone. I'm guessing that the digitizer went bad as well.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rizla2:
Hi all. So i decided to buy moto g, expect me here in a couple of weeks :D. Anyway, i'm not sure should i buy classic moto g 16gb or this new moto g 4g with sdcard. Looking at it, having sdcard slot would be nice though i don't care much about 4g. What bothers me that amount of roms for 4g version seems to be much smaller and there are no kernels. Price of both versions seems to be similar on mobicity.co.uk. Also, does anyone know what would be the cheapest place to order moto g inside eu?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rizla2:
Bump :/
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2092952:
Don't know about the price, but I'm quite happy with the 4g variant.

Downloading official kitkat for it right now, 4g speed is nice to have, and moving apps to sdcard keeps this thing open for tons of apps + additional room for more. So I see no real advantage to the internal only one here.

Probably better to base it on your storage needs + some additional for growing room / additional app space. If you don't put/keep whole video files, tons of music, recovery backups, big games, or other things that take up lots of space on your phone then internal only should be fine. There's nothing wrong with it.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grahamgo:
Why not wait a few days and see what the New Moto G (2?) Version specs are. That's what I'm doing.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rizla2:
Thanks for the help, i think i'm gonna buy 4g.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liveroy:
Basing your choice on a number of ROMs/kernels is quite bad idea. Poorly the worst thing you can do when choosing a proper mobile.

Anyway, consider if 12GB will be enough for your needs if you pick the classic 16GB moto g.For example I'm using an 8GB version for my daily driver and I don't feel that I need more free space, but sometimes I really feel like that it would have been great to have a sd, even tho that rarely comes to my mind.

After a while I got the LTE model and used it for about a month as daily one. Inserted a fancy 64GB class 10 microsd in it made by ADATA and it worked w/o a problem, even tho moto says up to 32GB... nice surprise there.

After few weeks I've realized that the damn sd card is pretty useless to me, even tho the device had only 8GB internal storage, but I just didn't need more...

Also you should consider that the inbuilt eMMC it's quite faster storage, than any micro sd you may use.

Good Luck.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Giugo:
If you use the phone as a music /video player and you like to use it as a camera, then the 4G with microsd slot is the best choice for you. If you use it primarily as a phone and you don't make a lot of photos and videos, then the 16 gb would be good. But remember that: one day you should need more space than the internal 12 gb (memory is 16 gb, but the actual free space is less) and the only solution would be the USB OTG.

If anyone can try this song out on Google Music or Spotify on their phone and let me know if it sounds abysmal as well I would highly appreciate it.

All of my music is on Spotify, and I use their "Extreme quality" download option which is 320kbps. Man, it sounds HORRIBLE!
