[Q] Availability of the Stock Bootloader / Recovery for Flash? - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

Long Story Short : My impatience got to me, and I foolishly flashed the root for the non-US GS3 onto my phone. Now I'm soft bricked.
I was curious if the stock bootloader and recovery are available for download anywhere so I can flash back to basic function. I enjoyed the phone for the 4 hours I had it, and I'll be happy just getting back to normal for the time being.
Thanks in advance.

Not alone
Like an over excited kid on Christmas I did the same thing not thinking and it's not like this is my first time rooting a phone. Glad to know someone else did this too now I just hope we get a response!

just got back from the sprint store with the same issue. They dont even have the stock files yet!! But they did order me a replacement device that should be here in 3 days. Ahhh more waiting, even though this one is totally my fault

I was able to get to recovery with the CWM recovery posted in the Dev forum, but no further. Hoping to see a rip via the Kernel dump soon.
From the look of it, if there's a stock firmware flash, I can flash it on via CWM, when that becomes available.
Disappointing to hear the Sprint support doesn't have the flashes yet. Looks like I'm out in the cold. :|

Didn't realize I left my voice recorder on yesterday. argggg
Just got back from Sprint store, they have nothing for the 3s yet. In fact they passed around my brick phone so everyone could see the device that they didn't have.
PS flashing the CWmod did not fix this prob either. any help on the horizon?

dude check out a forum thread entitled flashed euro version...some guys n I have been trying to get a fix all night and finally one was posted. My phone is up n running again

I know chainfire's version specifically says it's for the international version. If it wasn't that you know there is different hardware in the international version, so you were just being foolish. You're lucky Samsung makes this thing so easy cause all you really deserve bricks

How does one "act all weird" on the phone? Was there perhaps a video camera you saw? Webcam?
For the love of gods, it's a first-line rep, the other I spoke to one who kept telling me she didn't know what ZERO was.
I spelled it for her 5 times and she STILL got it wrong.
If you listen to morons, then, well, you have to question your sources.

he started tripping on his words when i ssaid that
again, 99% he is what, 2 weeks on the job. he was BSing you in the first place. Don't you get it, these first-line phone reps they are hired/fired NOT because they're smart, but because they have a pulse.
These guys are NOT smart, they are NOT educated (for the most part unless you consider reading the backs of twinkie wrappers an education), and they're just trying to get through as many calls as possible as QUICKLY as possible.
Don't believe everything you hear.
Did you, for example, call back and try again with someone else? Perhaps 3 or 4 times total?
I'm sure your results would be as broad as the spectrum.
So you are implying that Sprint specifically instructed all its reps to deceive its customers about an upcoming update?
Seems like too much work

No, no instructions involved, which is EXACTLY my point. They get shoddy training, so they "guess" and shine you on.
For the love of gods, you can't seriously think these guys are even informed as to what's going on.
Seriously, you think first-line reps know anything at all? Their life expectancy is what? a few months, maybe a year. These guys get training equivalent to brain donors who can't figure out why they took the job in the first place until it makes sense that they should not have because everyone is yelling at them.

I saw someone doing this remotely on ebay bro. Don't remember the charge. PM me if you get it done and tell me what works and what doesnt. I have a way to get 25% off your bill every month if that helps. This works if anyone else wants to use this i have for 4 years and everyone I gave this too has recieved the discount. follow it to the T . They don't want proof or anything. You will have the discount within 3 or for days. Don't forget to hit the thanks button e-1 . heres the link. If you want this post removed PM me and i'll remove it.
http://www.hustlermoneyblog.com/25-sprint-discount-on-sprint-and-nextel-service/ do it exactly.
will make your bill cheaper than boost mobile
As tempted as I am to be blunt (it seems it's expected of me now), I feel for you. I know it's rough, and I can certainly relate, but I don't think you're going to find what you're looking for by posting this here. Just saying.
Good luck.
Idk about Boost, however, if you have Cricket in your area, I just flash my 3vo by using their tutorial on cricketusers.com
I know it's not Boost, but it's another inexpensive-ish mobile carrier based off of Sprint's network.

Wrong. Although this forum is full of smug jerks who are completely useless. I do try to help out when I come to pick up a new rom but avoid it like the plague when I don't need a ROM for this reason.
To OP this is totally doable by your self and you need patience and as im sure you will find out the method is a bit under the table. For this reason I paid someone else to do it im not a lawyer so follow all instructions on your own. If you can't find someone to pay you can do it yourself ebay guides are scam all the info is free if you look or keep reading my post. All the instructions you need are here at xda. First I would suggest rooting, temp root since MSL reader app requires root there are other methods to get your MSL aka SPC but they are a pain this is simple and works. After you root download MSL reader and get your MSL you will need for later. Now you will need your phone in DIAG mode with diag drivers. Follow the instructions here only to step 7 is needed. If it reads fine you are good to go if it does not read the phone you need to fix the diag drivers instructions here. Now you are ready to start instructions here at xda but in the epic4g subforum in this thread all the instructions are the same but you can skip 11. The only purpose of 11 is to get the MSL/SPC which you already have. You are done at step 17 but if you need mms to work check the EVO4G forums pretty similar to the epic but there is an extra menu or 2 but 3D and 4G should be the same.

[Q] How to get CM9 going?

Hello
I would like to ask what will it take to have CM9 in this lovely phone? I've been trying the CM9 from the International SG2 and the main issue is the no audio in calls, as far as I know, it will take the Kernel sources from this i777 to be available to get it going, is that something that owners of this phone can help with? My programming skills are as good as driving a jet fighter... but I have the will to help. Let me know what it takes and I'll help.
Best regards

If you want to help then break into Samsung headquarters, hack into their computers and get the kernel sources.
Also while you are there steal a copy of their development build of ICS for the i777 so we can steal the audio libs to fix the call audio problem.
Ouch .. Its gonna take a lot more patience from you.. There has been dozen of these "type" threads.. All of which get locked... BECAUSE this question has been asked and answered.. For the love of all that is good, please go to the general section and have a little 1 on 1 time, you may find a thread titled USEABLE CM9 THREAD.. If you had opened that up you could have helped out here on XDA in a huge way by not starting another thread that needs to be closed again.

Check the stickies in the general section. There's kinda a thread on this...
I guess if Samsung fails to release the source quickly after the i9100 release, the i777 community can make a **** fit about that on social networks.

Samsung is good at ignoring that - look at the Infuse AT&T Gingerbread release, still no source.
OP, I got an idea, Why dont you message Cyanogen himself and ask him when the sources for the Galaxy S II are going to be released, since he works at Samsung... ask him to leak the source.. and finally ask him for an ETA On when we can expect a first build

Good Lord, if CM9 worked on our phones, we would have threads/walkthroughs/videos of it for everyone. Since we dont, its not read yet. When will it be ready you ask? When the CM team releases it.

back to stock

Got a new note for warranty exchange yesterday. I want to revert the old one I am sending back to bone stock including the clockwork mod recovery and the counter. The usb port stopped working. It is stock rooted ics. How do I flash a stop recovery/ Is there a way to do this? If it is posted already I haven't found it yet.
Thanks,
Why worry? You have the new replacement. I'd just put it in the envelope and say si-ya-narah.
Att can charge you the cost of the replacement if they decide you broke agreement ...
They can just bill you after the fact...

Hmm... lets see ... they can deny warranty and charge me $599.

Thanks,
Without the working USB port I don't think it ALL can be done. If you did a NAND backup of your stock ROM like you should have then restore it first. Put all that ATT bloat back on there. If not stick with what you have and do a factory reset. Then install the counter reset using CWM. And the best you can do is keep your fingers crossed that they do not catch the custom recovery.
And don't forget to change your radio/baseband/modem back to the one that matches the ROM if you have changed it.
You can use a terminal emulator to push the stock recovery back in and delete su and busybox, Then reboot and it will be unrooted.

This is a forum of users ranging from complete noob to Jedi master, but its not on demand customer service.
The process usually works fine if you give it enough time.
You got a good suggestion from studacris, and if there's any further questions just come back.
First I don't mean to attack or be harsh to you...
Sir, you opened the thread looking for assistance, correct? Although you may not agree with some of the ideas/thoughts, you can try your method and see if it works. But the least you can do is thx these individuals, that are providing for your post...instead the sarcastic remark. Maybe you didn't meant it that way? But with a join date of 2010, you know where the thanks button is located.
If you are worried about warranty denial and the fees, them maybe you keep it stock your next phone?
Hope you solve your issue btw the method given by studacris would seem the best, but your call sir.

Ouch!
But my honest thought was "this guy has a hardware issue that has absolutely nothing to do with rom customization. Its already stock. So at&t won't care about root. Just put it in the bag and send it."
Anyway, good luck and I hope your new phone works out better.
Yes you are right. As you can see by my posts I was only addressing rangercaptain by the 'helpful' comment and no one else. I appreciate any and all useful suggestions.
I am not worried about fees or anything else. I just don't want to pay them If I don't have to. I simply asked for help and rangercaptain makes a useless suggestion so I made a comment about that. Not about anything else.

If you looked, pretty much the only way to achieve perm root is either by using hasoon's tool, or by installing a custom ROM

I wish someone would make a thread, some sort of resource that has all info you'd ever need.. I wish they would do this, and sticky this thread- maybe even call it a bible.. like an amaze bible. The one place to go to get everything you need.
Seriously tho, I'm pretty sure we covered root in the bible, which happens to be linked in my signature, and stickied somewhere.. we pretty much took search out of the equation- if you find something that isn't in the bible, attach a comment in the doc or thread with the link and what it is for..
Oh, and not sure what device you are coming from, but we don't have opinions on things for the amaze. We have answers. If you saw somewhere where we left a question(like what is the best root) please let us know..
thanks man for the bible link!
I'm coming from the iPhone

Even a pro would be hard pressed to find a lot of answers with the search button.. which is why it was worth the effort of me and a few others to try to put as many answers in one place as possible.
And the sII is comparable to our phone, but I'm slightly jealous of the SIII. The only phone I would consider a big enough upgrade would be the SIII international version.. but with all the phones on the horizon I think I can wait a bit longer.
Welcome to the amaze, most of us are pretty friendly/helpful, but all of us have our bad days- or just days where people ask the same question for a billionth time, lol.
