Doesn't get much easier than Noxious Ninjas script. You just follow the directions and it's just a command prompt script like Moto phones. Plus you don't have to flash anything in Odin if that kind of stuff scares you.

Yeah I have to say noxious ninjas script as well. It's extremely simple and I don't really see how there could be any kind of risk to your phone. Plus you don't lose your data.

This is the easiest around. Just rooted today.

yeah I would feel more comfortable with the script rather then using odin to flash something

Reboot to fastboot. Redownload twrp 2.6 check md5
Flash twrp
Boot to twrp, Wipe everything except SD card (advanced wipe)
flash the rom
Reboot
Factory reset in twrp
Flash the kernel
Reboot
Check md5 of everything you download for flashing always.

1. You should really put these questions in the team venom thread, you will get more help and Turge might want the feedback. If you ask nicely in a private message he's actually pretty helpful.
2. I'd be looking at the settings used to flash kernel.
Exad is on the money, only I would revert to stock kernel when flashing the rom.

Ehm sir actually I had this problem before. when I flash a new recovery in mobile odin I accidentally drop my phone. And the battery is not connected. When I start it up it stuck in boot and then reboot it self over and over again.
When I flash again it worked fine. Maybe that will help and sayonara

That's great for a Samsung user but this is not a Samsung device. HTC have entirely different ways of doing things, so like I said, unless you're experienced with this specific phone, leave it to the people who are. Also, this has nothing to do with a dropped phone or a faulty connection, it's a bricked phone.

[Q] I need the stock firmware, and I'm confused with what I found.

So I hard bricked my S3. I've been following a tutorial to fix it.
I couldn't find a download for the stock Verizon firmware, but then I found a list of downloads on "StockROMS.net" I can't link it... Sorry.
Which one do I pick? I hope this isn't a stupid question... I've never had to do this before.

Hold on a second.
Before you flash anything tell us what version you were running. No reason to lock your bootloader if you weren't on 4.3.

Do you mean like what did my phone come with? I had 4.1.2. I bricked it when I flashed the International version of PA instead of the Verizon version.

Nope. The tutorial that I found on YouTube involved a 16 gig class 10 micro SD card. The thing is I don't have one yet. So I've been downloading all the files I need so when I get one I'll be ready.

Yea I kind of jump the gun and assumed you were on 4.3. That is a stock 4.3 firmware file. If you flash it, it will lock your boot loader.

The one linked is the 4.3 version. You can't flash it anyway. Just follow that thread and it'll work for you. Or you can Jtag it for $30 or so.

if nobody else has what you need, I've got a CWM backup you could restore, then boot TWRP and make a fresh backup with it so you'll be ready when OTA updates start rolling out.
I'll upload it tomorrow morning

I placed this on the SD card and tried to backup from CWM recovery and the MD5 didn't match. Any ideas? Currently trying to get stock back on...somewhere along the lines I lost the ability to make and receive calls. Hoping this will fix it.

Yeah that would be great

First Sprint V20 Recovery Flasher (TEST)

rootlinux is back with another one.
This is built using Aroma installer.
Easily switch between 3.1.1.0 elsa for stock based roms.
Easily switch to 3.0.2-1 to flash AOSP roms.
Test it out and see what you think.
First build is right here.

Flash recovery inside your recovery in case you need to downgrade from 3.1.1.0 to run AOSP. Or to upgrade to 3.1.1.0 for more features.
Sent from my LG-LS997 using Tapatalk

Thanks @rootlinux it is fully functional on my ls997. I just need an AOSP ROM to test it on. I'm thinking OneDon's might be a good start.

Anyone find an AOSP that they use as a daily driver yet?
