It doesn't matter what text is printed on the phone. As long as the model # is i727 and it (not the logos/text, but the phone itself) looks like a skyrocket it's a skyrocket :good:

Also just FYI, some replacement screens (when changing LCD/digitizer) only have the Samsung logo at the bottom. They don't have an at&t logo.
I wouldn't miss the at&t logo if it were gone ...

I don't have this problem, but if I were in this situation, I would use ODIN to flash a ROM. You will lost everything, though.

If you're rooted, boot into CWM and clear cache and data and try restarting the tab. If that doesn't work, then do a factory reset. Last option would be to Odin. I still have the old official HC LA3 firmware if u need it, although most of us have gone over and flashed the UK ICS firmware. Don't know why Sammy hasn't given us U.S users an official American ICS release yet.

So, when the U.S. version comes out, if I have the non-rooted U.K 4.0.4 version installed, can I use Odin to install the U.S. version without root?

[Q] Samsung Galaxy SII i727R same as Skyrocket?

Hello i just purchased the Samsung Galaxy SII LTE from Rogers, and the code is SGH - I727R, assuming R is for rogers.
Is this the exact same phone as the Skyrocket, and the R is just for rogers, meaning all the rooting information and roms for the skyrocket, will work for my phone as well?
Thanks!
Yes same rooting methods apply

The redemption rom. I went ahead and waited for about 10 minutes to see if it works reboot the samsung logo came on last for like 2 seconds then the screen went blank. So now I into Odin to see if I could flash the Stock image.. when I tried that the first step goes through then I go to the second step and it fails. Here are some pics of my computer and my phone.

Never ever do that, get your sources from here, you might have repartioned your phone which is not recoverable. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762709 go here and scroll down to return to stock.
L710 is the model number of the Sprint GSIII. Hopefully you can get it back with section 2 of the link posted above.
If that doesn't work use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1840030 and it will unbrick your phone.
It looks like your are right ... I wanna thank you for pointing out that I was trying to install the sprint version and not the Verizon version. What relief... Thank you again.

Glad you got it working again. Just so happened to recognize the L710 model number from modifying the build.prop to get Google Wallet working. Always be sure that anything you flash for the Galaxy SIII is for the Verizon specific I535. They all look the same but can put you up #(*%*'s creek if you're not careful. I'd suggest avoiding anything that's not specifically in the Verizon Galaxy SIII sub-forums.

Customer base and update cycles are two completely different things. And judging by my coworker who has a gs3 and doesn't even know what a premuim suite update is and doesn't care, I think Verizon will be fine sending out updates whenever they want.
Were probably going to skip straight to 4.2

I apologize in advance for this noob question...
I rooted my s3 a couple of months ago. Now that 4.1.2 is out, how do I update & re-root it? Do I just download an updated rooted image & boot into recovery mode and flash it, or is there more to it than that? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Just flash the rooted stock, then flash the radio and rpm. Much easier than updating and rerooting.

well, that didn't quite work
so I downloaded the file CF-Auto-Root-m3-m3zh-gti9305 (hopefully that was the right one for 4.1.2 rooted). I booted into recovery mode, started odin. Chose PDF and selected the file, hit Start. After about 15 seconds I get a "Fail" message. Phone won't boot at all. Did I select the wrong image? How do I get my phone back?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thinking that this was the wrong file, I went to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2046439
and downloaded the For VRBMB1 (Jelly Bean 4.1.2) file. That updated correctly via Odin, and phone now reboots. Looks like it's still at 4.1.1 however....

[Q]Check if bootloader is locked or not

Hey guys, so i got my S3 today and wanted to know if my boot loader was unlocked or not. Please let me know if an app that does that or not. Also, if there was a way of telling the phone is unlocked or not . Cheers, thanks.

Which android version is installed? VRUCML1 and VRUCNC1 4.3 are bootloader locked and so is VRUDNE1 4.4.2. No XDA exploit exists to unlock the bootloader on these firmware. Only way is to pay a $50 fee to MobileTechVideos to downgrade the firmware then unlock the bootloader.

If you power off the device, then power it back on, you should see the words "Samsung" first. If they stay on the screen for more than 2 seconds, then it's locked down. If it flashes by almost instantly, then you're unlocked.
