Hey everyone! Less than 3 weeks ago I had my Verizon Galaxy S3 flashed to Pageplus remotely for $40. I did my research and from what I could tell running custom roms should work if they are for the SCH-i535. I rooted, put TWRP recovery on and flashed nightlies of cm11. Sure enough nothing worked so I flashed my nandroid backup of stock 4.1.2 and still nothing works. I currently cannot afford another flash and I am in dier need of my phone this weekend. Is there anyone that can please help me?
Btw I checked in about phone and my phone number changed so the flash has to be broken. After hours of searching and concluding I was safe to flash I am very disappointed, but I really need my phone and would ve just fine on oem 4.1.2.
Thanks!
UPDATE! Did it myself

Hello all I am so sorry if posting something answered. I have an att s3 i747 i flashed 10.0.0 cyanogen 3 days ago all was good then today i did the newest nightlies and lost my imei I tried recovery and it didn't bring it back. I have clockwork rom recovery please help me I am shaking i am so nervous everything works except the data network calling texting etc even wifi works help me please
Sorry mate this is the G3! Forum not GS3 2 completely different phones. But I have a broad idea on imei, if you didn't backup your efa then I guess it's service center for you. However I'm not 100% sire this applies to GS3. Try asking on their forums.

i will try to explain this as best as possible. i own a SM-S890L, S4 mini from straight talk. It is an LTE just like the 9195, successful root via cfauto for 9195.. I backed up stock rom. running cm 11. No firmware listed for 890L. Pull battery the FCCID xxxxI257. That is the sprint/att model. during my flash confusion i formatted the phone and lost my original back up. The phone works more or less like an ipod atm. I cannot make or receive calls, USSD codes do not work. Any help would be appreciated, thanks
Try back stock firmware

Is there any Custom ROM for P907A? I couldnt find. I suppose, I couldnt flash P905 ROM on P907A device, right?
I don't think so. Sadly ive been searching forever to get a custom recovery and rom on my p907a. I'm afraid it's just not out there. I hope someone more intelligent than me will make it happen and post back here for us. I got excited when TWRP came to the Note Pro, but even that failed to work on my AT&T model. Something about a locked bootloader I believe .

I just want to say thank you in advance for any help that is given, I use these threads a lot and this is the first time I've had to post a thread because I couldn't find an answer already.
Anyway, I have a Samsung S3 SCH-I535 with Verizon running the latest bootloader and Android 4.4.2. I want to install the latest Cyanogenmod and from what I've found online. The only way to do this is to downgrade sense the bootloader is locked. I've downlaoded all the files I need but odin gives me errors because the software is not authorized. I've tried safestrap and have succussfully installed the superliterom ver. 3 but ASOP do not work with safestrap so my only option is to downgrade the bootloader and manually install the latest CM12.1. Please someone help me with this. I've exhausted all my resources and don't know where to go next.

Mobile tech videos has a site with a mail in boot loader downgrade service. Seriously reputable. Takes a couple days and when you get it back your back to 4.1.2 with unlocked boot loader and back to flashing whatever you please

I've been following the mobile tech thread for quite some time, I'd take a look at this first before even considering them

If there is any way around the q-fuse, I haven't heard of it.
442 is stuck with locked bootloader ROMs, so far as I know.
There are a couple companies that offer downgrades and unlocked bootloaders, Mobile Tech Reviews being one of them, and the other being FWIW (I think).
I've heard good things about both, but have never tried them out.

As I noted above I'd be very careful with mobile tech videos as a ton of users have reported a not so great experience with them

Looking to put some feelers out about rooting my dad's phone since it isn't acting right anymore and thanks to VZWs crap upgrade plan he is on, he will have this phone for another year or longer. Can you root and apply one of the custom roms like hyperdrive or even a MM rom? I'd be fine with CM as well.
Anything to make his phone not run like crap. I haven't tweaked an S3 in years, but I do remember that I think VZW released an OTA that made root and boot loader much harder or totally locked it down.
I was hoping someone might have a workaround that still works.

Thanks!
