need the stock firmware for my sgh-t959v

i was really really stupid and decided to try and install darky's resurrected rom on my new sgh-t959v. After doing it and it not going past the 'installing csc' prompt i decided to try and mount a different pit. i got a working setup out of luck, but now my sim card doesn't work. i got a new sim card and still no signal. i only managed to write down the baseband version before messing it up like this. now that i've read that mixing a pit file from one region with a csc file from another is dangerous. i just need the stock pit csc and phone files. it's been driving me nuts because i just got this phone and all of a sudden can't use it. i've learned my lesson but i really need to fix it. i don't think darky's will work on mine since it's so new.
btw i found the source for my phone,(can't put link here because i don't have over 8 posts) my model and version are listed there. the only problem is i'm a noob at developing(getting into it) and can't compile all this stuff. is there a guide to compiling it? i was hoping to compile the source from that site and try to port it. how would i go about making the source into the pit csc and modem files?
sorry for such a ****ty problems guys. hope someone can help thanks in advance.

super buuuuump!!!

bump, i want my foooone herpaderp!
what's the difference between pit files that are 512, 803, 513? what's this number represent?

so i just tried to flash some other 'custom' rom that was perfect for my phone. i tried it with a different pit file that i thought would work. but now the device doesn't respond to anything! i turned it off and it won't turn on at all now not even to download mode. i'm freaking out what do i do!!!

welp i didn't want to wait. just to update everyone i took it to a local tech who flashed it to stock but couldn't fix the fudged bootloader. i messed it up when it failed a rom flash and i pulled it out in the middle of flashing. so i'm sending it back and getting another one by tuesday

yes, i need it too.

Same problem, anyway know where download this firmware???

No Custom ROM
A word to the wise: The Samsung sgh-t959v for t-mobile does not allow you to put a custom ROM. If anyone knows how to, please advice. I have a new sgh-t959v and don't want to make the same mistake of bricking it where "adb reboot download" command didn't even work because the phone died.

[Q] Probly and oldy but still need help

Yes I super one clicked, and odin to intall an unrooted version via the facebook Mesmerize fan page so im rooted.
Phone is now running firmware 2.3.4 Kernel 2.6.35.7, and eho9
All I want to do is change my Sounds and animations at start up and shut down and Every program I get does not allow me to edit the rootfiles. I have all the files I need just cant get them in the right place.
Maybe on a related note, the CWM update.zip gets the signature failure as i have seen soo soo much on here. none of the so called fixes work. manually through oden or through cwm direstly.
Any input or am I going to have to dump this turd and get another carrier?

[Q] can´t root and do anything to lg p920

hello, i just purchased a lg device, actually a lg p920 or lg 3d, and when i got it and saw that the signal wasnt working and that i couldnt connect it to the computer either, so i thought that i could just flash a new rom or something like i did in my samsung vibrant, but i couldnt either, becuase when i went to the clockwork mod, it just said wipe, i mean all the options that appeared were wipe... so there wasnt an install option, a i realize that it was because it wasnt rooted. so i have been looking everywhere in the internet and i tried out all the root option for this device, but none of them work, so now i dont know what to do. because i cant either get my cell to work, even for calling or anything,because it doesnt reconigze any sim cards, and i cant either connect it to the computer to flash to a new rom. the device is actually running android 2.2.2 and the kernel is 2.6.35.7, dont know if that helps, but i really need help with this pleasee!!! thanks in advancee!!

1. Does it boot into Android system?
2. Send us links of threads that you already try
3. what OS you have on your computers
4. which phone driver did you install on the computer.

if your handset is new, within warranty, it is best that you take it to the official LG service stop. please dont try rooting as it will void your warranty.
only if you decide that you can do without warranty, you can try rooting the O3D.
before that, upgrade to GB.
search for MEGATRON in this forum for rooting the O3D
once rooted, you can download ROM Manager from play store, flash recovery using ROM manager and then try custom ROMs.
please click on thanks if you think I helped.

Did you try to install another ROM,it might work out,there are many other ROMs with marshmallow,you should try that or if it doesn't work then use adb to flash a rom

Verizon devices with newer firmware than 4.3 and up have a locked bootloader, you can't flash TWRP or custom ROMs and you can't unlock the bootloader, you also can't downgrade to an older version with unlocked bootloader. You're stuck with locked bootloader, anything you try to get around it will only brick your device.
If you can get to download mode, flash your stock firmware in Odin.
If that doesn't work you may need to use an unbrick.img to boot from sdcard to fix the device.
Or you may need to send it in for a JTAG service.

Read my post that you quoted again and pay attention to the details and you'll get your answer. If you had paid attention to exactly what I posted then you wouldn't be asking that question.

Sorry about that, could you elaborate more on my options? What do you mean by flash my stock firmware in Odin (sorry if thats sounds stupid i dont know about this) And what unbrick.img?

You just said you flashed your device with Odin, why are you asking about how to flash your stock firmware, that's what you already did isn't it?
As for the unbrick.img, you need an unbrick.img pulled from a working device with your model number and your same stock android version (4.4.2), then there is a method for using that unbrick.img to boot from sdcard.
This information is here at XDA in the Verizon S3 forum if you take the time to look.
If you don't have sense enough to research your device model before you flash anything custom or if you don't know what you're doing and how to fix things when they go wrong then you should leave your device alone because flying by the seat of your pants and just assuming you can flash whatever you want is only going to cost you a lot of money in the end. You're lucky you didn't hard brick your device, that can't be fixed even by Samsung, if you had done your research you would know that. I suggest you stop where you are and start reading everything you can about the Verizon S3 i535 and what you can and can't do with it.
