How can i get rid of the custom Binary thing? I also testing my charge with Skyrocket app and it says slow charge. Its taking forever to charge with ICS. Im thinking I need to Odin to stock again, but dont really know how. Plus I dont want to wait another hour and a half to update ICS thru Kies again. Can i just flash the ICS version thru Odin with the blaze pit? Im hoping that would fix the awful battery life im getting too.

I'm running rooted stock ICS just like you, and have custom binary as well. I think having custom is normal. Before upgrading to ICS, it was Samsung Official, though.

It likely comes from the custom recovery.bin - i.e. CWM recovery. It'll go away if you flash/Odin a stock variant.

Hi all, been reading the threads and have 'info overload' :silly: from so many different options. Just looking to get stock OS with root, and the latest update (mf1 I believe) so I can have stable 4g and the latest OS updates. Locked or unlocked BL does not matter. I do have Triangle away just in case it is needed.
In the past I went straight to mf1 and then did the 1 click Casual root. All was good except I had no 4g, even when everyone around me did. So I'm thinking of going to COMBINATION_I535VRALG1_I535VZWALG1_743127_REV09_user_low_ship.tar.zip and starting over.
Should I do ota's to get to mf1, or root first, install a root keeper app, and then upgrade.
Thank you all in advance for any advice you can provide. I tried searching on my own first but there is so much info out there.

You can just update then root as it requires less steps.
Root first. Then from the development section download the new ROM and modem which is separate and flash away. That's what I've been running with the KT747 kernel but others like the LK 3 kernel, so it's up to you whichever you prefer

No problem.
I used the method in this thread to gain root:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1984436
It flashes a rooted stock rom (MB1) via Odin. Then used Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper and took the OTA to MF1. Then restore root. 100% stock Rom + Root. I've had zero issues so far. Don't have to mess with flashing kernel, modem, and it doesn't trip the flash counter.

Hi,
I just got my 4.3 update on the VZW SCH-I535 phone! Then I decided to try CM10.2 and didn't realize that my phone was re-locked because of the OTA update! Now my phone is stuck with the message "System software not authorized ..." To move past this issue, I have tried (and failed) the following:
- Tried to flash stock rom using ODIN (withSamsung-Updates.com-SCH-I535_VZW_1_20120705143513_fti2qg2lmf-stock-rom-4.0.3). It goes all the way through and I get a PASS! But after the phone reboots I get the "System error ... " again
- Tried to flash stock rom using ODIN with stock.vzw_root66.tar file and got the same result as above.
- I have also tried installing with Nand Erase All and Re-Partition checked, with PDA selected using the first rom, but I still get the same error
- I have read and tried some of the thread on this site with no luck either.
Any clue how I can get past this issue? Thanks for all your help in advance.

Yup, I took the OTA. Didn't realize that it would un-root. I have tried various things at this point to get it back, but nothing has worked so far. Now when I try to use ODIN to do a CF-Auto-root, i see the "Secure Check Fail: recovery", at the Downloading screen. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
To my knowlage I am the only one hosting the tar file you need. Samsung updates doesn't have it because the file hasn't been officially released other than ota. If this dosnt work for you try flashing the pit file with the tar. It is one of the last replys in this thread.

Turns out, after working with the ATT folks for a while, that the IMEI number that my phone has comes up incorrectly in their database. It shows up as a Samsung Tab. Checked with Samsung and my IMEI number is correct, so ATT will have to fix it on their end to get my phone to work correctly. I don't know why they make it so hard to migrate phones across service providers.

The only working root method is currently saferoot if you take the OTA. Personally I wouldn't take it. I'd suggest keeping your unlocked bootloader in tact and running a custom 4.3 rom.

You van root 4.3 after ota or that link, but if I was you I would try to use the ota first. If it works you will keep all installed apps and settings (but it might be buggy). If you follow that link you will loose current setup, apps and it will format internal sd (but it will be clean and hopefully bug free ). Make sure you are home with access to a pc before you try ota. If you changed to much of the workings of your phone the ota may not work or could even brick you. In that case you will need to use that link.

Honestly I'm glad I took the ota on accident. The past few weeks my phone has worked without a hitch. Some people just do not need custom ROMs and I think I am one of them. I'm pretty sure everyone who complains about how 4.3 is buggy and a battery hog just needs to use Odin to get a clean fresh start. I am disappointed that I can't install cyanogen when I turn this into my mp3 player after I get a new phone but its not like tw is bad. It just has a few annoying things that I can change with root access.
Off topic
I dnt hate tw ..I think is a good Rom in general .all that bloatware what got me to root and then lead to custom roms .like mention not everyone needs cuztom things.I do agree that a clean install of TW runs great .but I like options .and to each there own

Seriously? They put a ton of work into theme on this rom. I've seen 4.3 stock and I'm not impressed. It's boring and pretty basic. Wicked is an awesome rom. I've run just about all of them. Beans rom isn't bad at all but I seemed to have a ton of issues with it

We need quite a bit more info before we can help you out. What version of Android were you running before you tried to flash back to stock, 4.1.2, 4.3, or 4.4.2? Were you stock or running a custom ROM? What version of stock were you trying to flash, 4.1.2 or 4.3? From where did you get the stock file you tried to flash?

Looking in the development section, I see Hyperdrive is still on 4.1.2, so if you were running Hyperdrive you were on 4.1.2. The problem may have come from flashing the 4.3 stock image on a rooted, bootlaoder unlocked phone. Were you no longer wanting to have an unlocked bootloader and run custom ROMs, because flashing the 4.3 stock image would have locked you down like that. Are you sure you flashed a stock 4.3 file? If so you would probably have to proceed as if you were already on stock 4.3 just to play it safe. This may be you best chance at regaining a functioning phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2581166
Unfortunately since you phone does no boot, there is no way to confirm if it is currently on 4.1.2 or 4.3. That would give us a definitive answer on which fix method to use.

If you were on safestrap, shouldn't you have had a fully stock ROM in the stock slot? Also from everything I read, you couldn't run Hyperdrive on safestap because you can only run 4.3 TW ROMs on safestrap. If you were running safestrap, that would mean you were on the 4.3 OTA of VRUCML1 and fixes for that would be your best bet, but since the phone won't power on I don't think any of the fixes here would work. Best bet may be to send it out for JTAG repair. I've seen mobile tech videos mentioned a lot for JTAG repairs.

Oh man, that sucks. Do you think you possibly used an s4 file on your s3? If so, you will definitely have to send it out for JTAG repair if you can't get any response out of it. But it can't hurt to check out that thread I linked earlier and see if the SD card method can work for you. Good luck.

Disclaimer: rooting your phone entails risk. You may brick it, cause it to catch fire, cause it to form the first node in the Skynet network, or otherwise render it inoperable.
Step 1: flash ML1_KERNEL.tar via ODIN.
Step 2: get saferoot from here.
direct download
Step 3: Unzip the saferoot.zip
You should have the following when done:
- a file called "install.bat"
- a file called "install.sh"
- a folder called "files"
Step 4 - Root your phone
Double click on the "install.bat" to run the root. It will root and reboot your phone. Once that's done, you're rooted!
Step 5: flash back NC1_KERNEL.tar via ODIN.
Now after you got root what to do! Check this usefull thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2653902
Thanks to:

try flash full rom again may help you.
If you can install safestrap and flash wifi modules may this work.
I forgot to mention that I stupidly tried to use EZ-Unlock knowing full well that the bootloader wouldn't unlock. Which resulted in a hard brick. I got out of that using a debrick SD card boot luckily. I planned on flashing with Odin again but thought I would ask first. Should I flash everything or just the WiFi modules?

No problem. Be sure to read the safestrap thread carefully. Especially the part about having to flash the kernel module each and every time you flash a ROM in order to have working Wi-Fi. Here is a thread that has a list of safestrap compatible ROMs:

Does anyone know of NC1 modules? I can only find ML1, and they don't work. I've tried flashing them twice on CleanROM 8.2, and still have no WiFi. Battery life on stock is KILLING ME, so I would really like to get this working.

I don't think there is an NC1 kernel module yet. If there were one, I would assume it would be in the OP of the safestrap thread.

I can compile the nc1 kernel but I cant test it as bootloader locked.
If I have the time will try to compile and take the modules, will download clean rom first hope my net connection still alive
could you not just flash the NC1 Kernel from the OP FIX, the one we flash back to the phone after rooting?
