Hi,
I went and rooted, unlocked the bootloader and THOUGHT that CWM Touch Recovery was installed using the Beans script on a 4.1.2 Galaxy S3. I went ahead and told the phone to take the OTA as I thought that it would reject it and then not ask any more. After part way through the install, I pulled the battery because I realized (pretty sure) that the CWM recovery hadn't installed properly and the stock recovery had booted up at the end of the script process.
Now the phone gets stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S III screen and wont boot. I can get into download mode and see the following:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SCH-I535
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: No
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
What do I do now? Am I committed to using Odin to put on the Verizon official 4.3 Firmware and can I do something else?
Thanks!

Thank you! Applied the firmware via Odin and I am back in business! You just kept my wife from killing me!
I see what the problem was now. When performing the Insecure Boot flash and Recovery flash, I needed to grant the ADB super user request on my phone. But because the lock screen was on instead of being "in" the phone, I didn't see it and thus the bootloader was not unlocked nor was recovery installed. When going through the process this time, I had unlocked the bootloader and saw the request and this time things went flawlessly!

I now tried to load the Clean ROM twice and when it's down loading I get the System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless and had to run ODIN to get the SIII back up and running.
Anyone else having this happen?
1) root
2) Unlock your bootloader using EZ Unlock v.1.2 from Rootzwiki
3) flash CleanRom using CWM or TWRP
Your bootloader is still locked that's why you see that Verizon warning.

If you are having the same problem as the op then why didn't you use the solution provided in this thread? Nevermind just seen your thread I will post there.
Ive searched everywhere but can find this anwer.
I followed these instructions to the tee. like 4 times...
using the guide and downloads from here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2046439
I can get root.. but when I tryed to installed CM10.1. I got the error message saying I tryed to install a unauthroized softwared.. contact verizon...
so I reflashed back to stock.. did those instructions..again..... and when I boot into ODIN it says QAULCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
Im assuming this means by phone is not Unlocked correct?
1 step was different for me in the instcutions......
In this step...
"Step 4 - Rooting Your Device and Unlocking Your Bootloader
Quote:
Using your custom recovery flash the download you chose above from Step 1 (#3)
Upon exiting your custom recovery to reboot first time, you will be asked if you want to "Disable recovery flash", you MUST select Yes"
I don't get the prompt asking me to disable recovery flash.. .it just reboots..???
I tryed installed the other recovery mod.. but it still says QAULCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
Any one have any ideas?

Try to root first on a stock ROM without unlocking bootloader, load a custom recovery, then download ez unlock 1.2 and unlock it from within your ROM. Then check Odin mode again to see if it still says enabled.

Well if 1.2 says you're unlocked I'd say it is. I'm not sure if secure boot stays there or not, but I think you're unlocked.
It might just think secure boot is still enabled. The worst that will happen is you have to Odin back to stock again.

I was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction.
I've recently flashed the modified ML1 modem from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1788313 and tried both using 4.3 Wicked Sensations and 4.3 MOAR. Phone was working great with either one until just normally restarting the phone, it would get stuck on the Samsung Galaxy SIII logo. My temporary fix was to go back into TWRP, wipe everything, and just reflash either rom but once in a while my phone would randomly lock up and I'd have to restart the phone to run into the same problem.
So I tried using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1840030 this guide to maybe fix the problem but ODIN keeps failing when flashing the vzw.root_66.tar. I've used this once before and it worked, but this was over a year ago. Do I need to do something differently because I've technically updated my phone?
Now I'm in a situation where powering on the phone, it gives the unauthorized by verizon wireless msg even when holding the vol up and home keys but I am still able to access download mode.
Thanks!

I had a similar issue caused by trying to flash a bad rom. I tried to do an odin flash of the VRALEC file and it succeeded but the flash of the root66 failed due to a bad cable. Now i'm getting the unauthorized message. I downloaded the firmware from the link but I'm curious what the steps are for flashing it. Do I need to flash something else first or can I just pop that file in to ODIN and flash it and be back up again?

Not sure without actually seeing the code, your card may be mounted as a read only type and it prevents any kind of writing to it. Hero wrote a guide for that problem, it's on the old roll up thread.

Sweet I got it. It was actually as simple as just disconnecting the USB cable and pulling the battery. After that I turned the phone back on, entered download mode and it flashed perfect. Thanks for all your help.
I installed a recovery before unlocking the bootloader... Is it possible to temporarily bypass the message so I can get my files? If not, will using Odin to flash the stock firmware delete any personal files/files made by Titanium backup?

Boot into download mode, and hit volume down instead of up to boot into your stock rom.
Are you on 4.1 or 4.3? If you don't know post what it says in download mode. There's an easy fix if you're on 4.1.

You can't unlock the bootloader, and there's really no way for you to pull the files either unless you use adb to pull files from specific locations.

Be careful with downloading xposed modules for the wrong Galaxy s3 version. When I used google to search for the very specific VZW s3 version of an app it through a thread at me for the wrong version (it was for sprint's s3 I think) and I nearly bricked my phone. It wouldn't let me unlock it. The touch screen just wasn't working and when I turned the screen off the whole phone kept rebooting. Luckily I was able to use odin to fix it.
Good luck!
My phone has been soft bricked after trying to flash the latest dkp kernel. I was using philz touch recovery and I tried to flash dkp kernel 3-20 build, and I got an error during flashing saying that it couldn't decompress the ramdisk. So I tried to flash the older version of dkp that I was using, and it failed to flash! I have never had problems like this before. So now my phone will not boot to system or go back to recovery. I can only access download mode. I was using CM11 with the ML1 modem and dkp kernel before my phone got bricked. It really frustrates me that my phone just randomly decided to freak out and brick itself, because I've been doing the same thing forever and never had any problems flashing a kernel. Please tell me how I can fix my phone. Thank you.

Well when I pulled the battery and tried to reboot a samsung logo with an unlocked symbol was underneath it and it still gets stuck on the 4g LTE screen. Also, it won't allow me to enter the recovery.
So I went back to download mode on my screen and i noticed that it still says "System Status: Custom"

You have to be able to boot into recovery, make sure you hold the volume up + home for an extended period of time.
If you can't, you need to Odin the stock rom and try again.

Don't know what else to tell you, it's a completely stock file.
Recovery, system, kernel, and bootloader.
If you can't boot into recovery it must've not flashed perfectly or something else is wrong, like your hardware.

I highly doubt that it is a hardware issue. I just tried to ODIN again and I'm in the same situation. One thing that I have noticed is that it tries to reinstall the MTP driver after using ODIN and it fails to install.
EDIT: Nevermind. I was able to enter recovery this time. I just did a factory reset. Hopefully it boots now. I will report back with results.
UPDATE: Ok. Everything seems fine now. Used casual to root and unlock bootloader again. Then installed PhilZ Touch Recovery. Now I am making a backup, and I am going to flash a Kit Kat Rom.
