Hey guys I keep reading of others getting prompted to update. What update is this I haven't gotten prompted, I'm just rooted and unlocked? If I get prompted and dont catch it before it flashes is it gonna brick me?

Just flash a custom recovery and you'll be fine.
We need more threads about this.

Yes. It will also kill your family and steal your lunch money. Fear it.
A simple (check the general thread) would have sufficed! But glad to see that there's still dicks handing out the same b.s. lectures! Or making fun of people!

Can flash through odin or recovery.
Any idea why it is missing going from 3.6.5 to 3.6.6? Nothing about it in the change log.

I believe for CNA you have to flash face unlock
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
I'll have to keep looking.
I don't remember flashing anything other than MMS fis when I originally installed the ROM.
Edit: Found it on another thread. Re-Flashed Google Apps and it is working now.

That made me lol.
Sorry I know I'm not helping at all, but really, that made my day.
More information. What ROM, do you have a custom recovery? If you have stock recovery then the ota def updated itself. If your stock rooted then it will do that without asking

I'm stock rooted, but I had flashed twrp recovery

Repeat the rooting process again.
Is it possible to flash a custom rom without root? If so, where can I find one?
Thanks for your help!
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
No. No custom roms unless you're rooted and unlocked. The closest you'll get are flashing Verizon factory stock roms via Odin, but those are not rooted.

What is your purpose to use custom rom without root?? Custom rom, by default required root for all the modded apps to work.

Umm, why?
I'm new and just trying to learn, that's all. I come from I phone. The S3 un-rooted can already do more than a jailbroken iphone. Almost like learning a new language with the Android and rooting.

now, when you say it doesn't let you register on the T-Mobile network, what do you mean? No bars? What rom, kernel, and radio are you using?
I would ask t-mobile if it was blacklisted not some random website if your worried about that and did you try a different sim card?

Yeah, I would check with T-Mobile and see what they have to say about it... Where did you buy the phone?

Well, this has happened to me before and a data/system/cache/dalvik format and then a reflash of CM 10 fixed the problem (IDK why but it did) Assuming you've already tried that I would flash back to a Samsung Official GB or ICS ROM and see if it works then.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR RETURNING TO STOCK SAMSUNG-SGH-T769 OFFICIAL FIRMWARE
So first register at www.sammobile.com, then search SGH-T769 under firmware and download the August 2012 ICS or The Feb 2013 ICS Firmware, wait for the download to finish (took me 30 minutes) then extract which ever firmware zip you downloaded then using Odin click on PDA and select the .md5 file which is located in the extracted ICS Firmware Folder that you've downloaded from sammobile.com
Download the PIT file here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1919228
Click on PIT in Odin and then select the one downloaded from the link above
then make sure re-partition isn't checked and start the flashing process after it is done flashing and reboots you'll have stock ics to root it simply follow the instructions over at the root ics stock thread found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1919228
This will flash a custom recovery and once the recovery is flashed using Odin reboot into recovery and flash the superuser.zip then you'll have Rooted Stock ICS Firmware
*BOOT LOOP MIGHT OCCUR*
To fix boot looping after flashing stock ICS just boot into stock recovery and wipe data and cache then reboot or on custom recover wipe cache and dalvik cache reboot and you're good to go.
