[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wwh1te:
I'm not at home right now but if you don't have it by the time I get home, I'll send you the file.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] asapmoola310:
That would be great! Thanks. I tried to pull it but I could not find it in the /cache folder. I think ROOT made it disappear.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wwh1te:
It's in there. If you have root all you need is ES File Explorer and grant it Superuser permission. Open the options and tick Root Explorer and Show Hidden Files.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] asapmoola310:
Unfortunately, it wasn't I had to reflash the S3 with NJ2>factory reset> root the phone with CF auto root and then use ESF explorer to rip the update.zip. I will post the zip file tomorrow if anyone needs it. :cool:

Sorry, I lost the ota update. I had some time and attempted the fix but it failed. I did restore to stock recovery. In my haste, I didn't make bkup of file. So I was waiting for it to re-download. I am not really concerned about the security exploit. I am glad someone else was able to provide the update file.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Chrispy_:
My phone downloaded the update, but when I press "Restart & install", it doesn't do anything. Is it because it is rooted? I also couldn't find the update in the cache folder, even though I gave it superuser access and have it set to show hidden files.

Is it possible to manually install the update without wiping the phone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cniels01:
I would recommend flashing a stock recovery and then sideloading the ota.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] yourbadneighbor:
What is procedure for sideloading the update. What do I need to do to make my downloaded up ready for sideloading?

Galaxy S3 Sprint
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cniels01:
You will need to have your computer set up for adb. The proper drivers and Android sdk etc. Power off the gs3 and then reboot to recovery by pressing power the bottom button and volume up at the same time. It will take a moment and then select the option to update via adb. At that point you should be able to connect to the computer via USB and from the command prompt type adb devices and have it list the serial number of your phone and say sideload next to it. I believe that the command is adb sideload filename in this case update.zip. update. Zip needs to be located in the same folder as the prompt you are working from. I am typing this from my phone, so I apologize for the formatting. You may have success by placing update. Zip in the root of an external sd card and select update from ext sd in the recovery prompts.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Setec111:
Does anyone know if this update will reset everything? I'm wondering if I'm going to lose my user data, apps, root, twrp....

Also, I think I know the answer to this, but just to be sure....

I believe the process that I have to follow to use the OTA update is to unroot the device (uninstall supersu?), then just run the update.zip from recovery. My guess is that I can use a custom recovery to install, but I'm not sure. I'm also assuming that it will not remove the user data and apps. After the update is finished, I would have to root the phone again, then set up all of my xposed framework options again.

Sound about right?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] yourbadneighbor:
Recovery File to use?

Could you tell me is there a specific download stock recovery for L710vpudnj2 sprint s3 that I should flash and where might I find it? I poked around looking for the answer but did not find it.

thanks for the other advice.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] biggolfer:
First, always backup your files before doing anything. I was on NJ2 stock rooted rom with trwp custom recovery.

My steps

1. Odin the stock recovery from NJ2. I made my own recovery from the full NJ2 tar rom. I couldn't find the recovery online. It was easy. Many tutorial online.

1A. I didn't unroot the device.

2. From stock recovery, I flashed the new OH1 update ota zip. I lost root in the process.

3. Odin the twrp recovery.

4. From twrp, I flashed the superSU zip to regain root.

Follow these steps at your own risk. Follow normal process for Odin tar files or flashing from recovery.

I didn't loose any files or downloaded apps. It was not necessary to wipe any caches but would not hurt.

Please note that the phone is still vulnerable to stagefright cve 2015-3486. Google has fixed in 2nd release for nexus devices but it is not in our ota.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] harry6:
My rooted NJ2 GS3 received and loaded the update OTA. The recovery was philz touch.

Root was lost and the recovery has been replaced, so I will need to reroot.

I am surprised that the ota update worked on my rooted phone...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cniels01:
I normally download the full NJ2 firmware file from XDA, Sammobile, or another reputable source and then extract the zip image and normally there is a file in there that is named recovery.img. Once you have that file, put it in the root folder where you've put the android sdk files (adb and fastboot) and then boot your phone into the bootloader and I believe the command is fastboot flash recovery {recovery file name} in this case fastboot flash recovery recovery.img. Good Luck! let me know if I can expound or if you have additional questions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Razorwindmo46:
Everyone should note. This post is for the L710T not L710V. Any uploads for for the L710T won't work on L710V models.

On another note. My Stagefright update won't install on Official software. Says a cache error 7 but don't remember the exact error.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] internetpilot:
Same thing happened to me. As a matter of fact, when reverted back to stock recovery before applying the update, the update did NOT work. It generated about a dozen lines of errors about not being able to see partitions, etc. So I odin'd Philz back on there and re-applied the update, and the update was successful. After the update, I lost root and was reverted back to stock recovery. I odin'd Philz recovery back, rebooted into Philz, flashed the TeamEpic root zip, downloaded SuperSU from the Play Store, and was back in business.

Had to do this twice because both of my sons have an S3. It worked exactly the same on both.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] zentsang:
Umm... so is this patch for Android KitKat or Lollipop ?? All I see is reference to the NJ2 Firmware but that's for both KitKat and Lollipop. I've also looked at change logs for several ROMs but none of them mention adding the patch. So if you have CM 12.1 or Wicked 8.2, etc ... will this patch work across all of them?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
No, no, no. This is only for stock KitKat firmware. Not any custom roms. Most custom roms that are based on cm have this patch already (and the rest of the stagefright patches).

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] zentsang:
Alrighty... thanks for the insight. Now if I could just get any version of CM 12.1 to work with Ting on my Sprint version of the Samsung Galaxy S III ... I'll be good to go. So far, every variant of CM 12.1 ROM I've tried... Ting is listed in the APNs but has no radio button to select it nor can I add any new APNs. The issue is only related to sending/receiving MMS. Everything else like Phone (3G and 4G LTE), SMS, and Data work ... but I can't for the life of me get MMS working.

....but that's for another thread. I'm not looking to hijack the Stagefright thread. =)

Issues with the stock recovery

I flashed the stock recovery for my phone (SPH-L710) from my master backup of the NJ2 file I had. I got an error stating Error code 7 and the error was explained as such: An unexpected error has occurred, the build.prop file contains unexpected contents.

My question is this: Is there a way to get a stock build.prop file for the SPH-L710 running stock NJ2? if there is I would greatly appreciate it! I didn't backup my original build.prop before tweaking (facepalm) I use skipsoft's Android toolkit and is a great tool in flashing and rooting. Special thanks to mskip

New to the I337. AT&T with NC1. Android 4.4.2. Stock ROM with the 3.4.0-1125940 kernel. Rooted, SE Linux permissive, Safestrap installed. Compared to other phones I have owned, rooted and installed custom ROMS for this one is way more complex.

Today I tried to Safestrap flash a couple of different ROM's- the Goole Play edition (jflte GPE) and the Lollipop 5.1 ROM 2015061jflte both times using Safestrap. Neither worked. In the case of the Google Play edition, it wanted to install a new kernel as well, I tried with the recommended kernel on the install GUI (wow an install GUI on Android). Both times stuck in a boot loop. I ended up using for the second time, the excellent information here

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-att/general/guide-odin-to-stock-updating-rooting-t2926642

to get back to stock NC1 (thanks again guut13 for the excellent guide and links to resources) and restored via Safestrap the present stock configuration.

My questions are as follows (I am posting this after a LOT of reading here)

1)Can I use LokiDoki ? I understand it resolves problems with the locked boot loader where one can flash pretty much any S4 ROM on the I337.Is this true?

2) I wanted to give the two ROMS I mentioned today a try. Neither worked although I followed the instructions carefully (wipe, install and reboot). I also would like to try the Phoenix ROM. Is it compatible with Safestrap? Are the two I tried today compatible with Safestrap?

3) I am on 4.4.2. I understand that 4.4.4 is out there as well as 5 but when I check either via Kies or OTA I am told this is the latest firmware for my phone. Any way to update this?

As I said earlier this phone is a lot more complex from a modding standpoint than any other I have experience with. I am unclear on which ROM's will work with the NC1. Before I knew about Safestrap and the boot loader problem I tried installing TWERP and ended up having to rebuild things with guut13's excellent thread.

With NC1 am I stuck on the stock ROM ? Can kernels be updated on NC1 using LokiDoki?

Any light or advice to be shed on my confusion wold be very much appreciated.

Thanks for the link. Have seen this thread. So I am on 4.4.2. So can I flash a 5.x ROM on the phone provided its TW --or does the phone have to be updated via OTH or another method to 5.x first? Or am I stuck on the ROMS specifically available on 4.4.2?

Thanks again very much for your interest and the link. Wish I had shopped more carefully and bought a non AT&T phone, one of the 5xxx models but I couldn't find anything other than the AT&T ones here in Ecuador.

Again many kind thanks for the help. This is the most complicated chain of BS to go through just to update a ROM thanks to the locked boot loader I have ever seen..... however you and others here deserve a lot of credit for finding workarounds...... the phone has been made needlessly complex with the BL and efforts by Google and AT&T to "protect" their turf and monetise the user. I would upgrade today were I not in Ecuador where everything costs double what it does in the US. The phone thief crop here is thick- this is the fourth phone in 2 years although the Galaxy Grand Prime I bought after the last robbery I still have. Broke the screen on that one and it was repaired improperly, I get a blank white screen on startup so can't get into recovery so its worthless to me for what I want it for..... so I have the S4 AT&T. Ah well.

Many thanks and enough of my *****ing.

Hello,

I've an XT907 that started having issues a week or so ago with apps randomly failing and reboots occurring. Since then, I am now stuck at the "red droid eye" boot screen. I have went into recovery mode and reset to factory settings but no resolve. I have followed your instructions here but still stuck at boot screen. I have a couple of questions to start.

Of all the firmware versions, how do I know which one to use? I am using this file: VZW_XT907_4.0.4-7.7.1Q-144_SMQ_S1-36-10_CFC.xml . As I cannot boot the phone, is there something on my Fastboot screen that gives me a clues as to whether or not I am using the correct version?

I noted from the Fastboot screen shows a status of Locked. Does this matter?

Excuse my lack of understanding, I 've not done this before and have since got a new phone. I will be trying to sell this one once repaired.
