[email protected]@@@&$&#^@: - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Hello flashers anonymous!
Long story short......I flashed an updated kernal for the version I had. It bricked my phone. I odined it back to life. My phone automatically updated itself to 4.1.2, the rom I was running is based on 4.1.1, can someone send me a link for the .tar file I can use with odin to restore my phone back to 4.1.1? I tried to search for it, but I wasent sure which one is the most current version. Thanks everyone.

Follow the "recover from soft brick" directions. There is a 4.1.1 download link on hotfile. Worst case scenario you reflash everything through odin, and lose you root/unlocked bootloader. But that is easy to get back. Something to note is that goo.im is having problems with their servers, so you may have to google the file names on the threads....

VRLG1 Stock Rom Where?

I am looking for the VRALG1 stock bloated rom that you flash in ODIN. i just unrooted and could only find the vrafl2 rom.
could i root again with vrafl2 and then flash recovery and go to a vlgr1 custom rom and intsall kernel and modem in odin?
Thanks
paul
I saw that file and tried forever to get it working. Why when i click "software update" "check new". it says NO New Update?
Also is vrafl2 with vrlg1 boot and vrlg1 modem the same as vrlg1 all togethor?
I'm using this stock bloated ROM but already rooted: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29921524&postcount=94
The link is now fixed...invisiblek said it was a bad upload.

I searched that site and found nothing. Also I see nothing by invisible that is a stock unmodified Odin file
Edit: I found it in the "stock rom" thread, even though the title only says LF2.

I'm glad u found it. On galaxys3root.com you can follow the instructions to UN root and get the stock img their.
EDIT: sorry maybe I'm mistaken and that's only got the vralf2file.

IMEI restored but still no service!

Good morning good afternoon good evening depending on where you are..
There is a similar thread just below this but obviously my issue is more on depth...
Let me explain what happened.
I was running clean ROM 5.0 and attempted to flash kind of crap mods. In doing so, I lost the ability to make or receive phone calls or texts.
It was brought to my attention that my IMEI may have been damaged and it turns out it was.
I followed the steps to repair it with @puremotive step by step and got it back.
I flashed back to clean ROM 5.0 without any problems. The ROM is in tact and running fine, my IMEI number restored, but I still can't make calls or texts. I can get on the internet.
I tried punching in the *code on the keypad without success.
I really don't want to have to send my phone back to the manufacturer!
Can anyone please help me. I am at work and can't use my phone.
Thank you all very much. Good karma coming your way

I'm pretty sure the sim re-provision code is disabled on TW JB because of the recent exploits reported about malicious folks embedding the code into websites.
Try it on an ICS TW rom and see if that works. If you don't know of one, then Odin an ICS stock image then try the dialer code again.

No route 66 is only for Odin. But here's an ics ROM or you could just go to development section and find one

Just my two cents, once you get this fixed, backup your imei and make a nandroid of the ics rom.
Good luck.

Download load stock vzw rom version 4.0.4 from sammobile.com and on firmware, type I535, it should pop up with stock vzw rom for you to download. Does your imei match the one on the back of the phone? ERI version should be 5. Let try with original stock rom first, then do *2767*3855# again, hoping it restores your ERI version to 5. Otherwise, you did not restore your imei correctly.

It could be the problem, but try original stock rom from sammobile.com, search box type I535 and it should pop up download section for you. ERI appears automatically when you restore imei. I did this thru QPST program and manually input imei from the back of the phone. Anyway, try unrooted stock rom first to see imei and ERI popup after you do *2767*3855#
I think I must be a moron... I'm so sorry for being a pain in the ass..
I am running a custom 4.0.4 ROM now.
Do I need to completely unroot my phone to downloads ad that stock version from sammobile?
I am helpless!!

***Must be on vzw stock rom that originally came with the phone, you can download that rom from sammobile.com, click firmware and type i535 in search box. Just register for username and password to download the rom, and then after you reprovision your phone, just root the phone again if it works and you are able to make or receiving call. Try this first!!
If all of the above does not work, try to repair your imei again and here is the link and instruction to fix imei to get the ERI:

YES! Do just like they said. Use only the SAMSUNG STOCK ROM. People have been telling you this for a while, and you continue to use custom ROMs. You'll lose root, but that's easy to get back. It's more important to have a working phone.
It's all good everyone. I pdykstra hooked me up big time.. I multiple hour walk thru.. But we got there.
I am back in action and fully backed up!!!
Thanks to everyone who helped me.

Help with root

Can someone please give me a stwp by step on rooting with updated 4.1.2 I can't seem to figure it out. I went to the rooting thread that was updated in march but it is there are so many options it is really hard to figure out what to do. I want to root unlock and put recovery back. I had to flash back to stock cause synergy messed up my gps.

Unroot needed for upgrade to latest stockrom?

I have the ATT skyrocket rooted and unlocked when I first got the phone in 2011, and is on 4.04. I remember that the post said that I must unroot if I want to upgrade the rom OTA from ATT. Is there any other way to upgrade to the latest stockrom without unroot? I cannot find the post I originally referenced to root/unlock.

^^ what he said. Just get the .tar file from sammobile.com and flash using Odin. You will lose root after this process.
If you want to update using kies (the update is not ota. You have to use kies. ) then s long as kies detects your phone and you have a stock recovery, you should be OK.
However, I believe that you will loose your apps and data with both the methids.. So just use Odin
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Thank you very much. I should be able to re-root after the upgrade, correct? Or the lastest 4.1.2 cannot be rooted yet?
I have problem with Odin before, never got anything done with it. Let me try it this time.

If your rooted why not just flash a stock rom with the newest update. That will save you the trouble of dealing with Odin.

I meant it more of an hassle. Plug in Odin then uproot do the update then reroot. Just seems so much easier to flash a stock base rom.

Why would you unroot to do the update via Odin. I believe your logic is flawed here. Although I do agree an install would be expeditious via recovery, your argument is flawed.

Just FYI - I was on rooted stock, and just did the update with Kies without unrooting. Now i'm on JB unrooted as a result.

There isn't any guide to unroot you just flash an unrooted stock ROM via Odin and that is it.
