Bootloader downgrade on-the-go? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I made the mistake to restore a jb stock rom nandroid right before work and I'm stuck with it for many hours. Isn't there a way I can go back to aosp without needing odin? Like some flashable zip?

HELP - Stuck in Bootloop

I am running a rooted TB on iKream and I have sold it so I popped in another SD card and started a factory reset. Phone shut off and then was stuck in the startup animation for over half hour. I can get to recovery and tried reset and reboot from there with the same results.
What can I do from here???

Can you be a little more specific? Flash the ROM again??

You need to flash a different Rom now. You could just get a stock ruu which would be easier. You can't do a factory reset on most custom roms.

Here is a link to the latest HTC firmware. There is a totally stock unrooted and rooted version. This is not the ics leak.

Sorry if the links don't work. I didn't check them but if they don't I'm sure someone there probably has the ruu. Heath probably has it if you can't find one.

Yes you can. Although if you have a safe Kernel (which usually comes packed with a safe recovery as well - double security) you should not worry.
ok thanks for your answer. I have one more question, I have now soft ics stock kernel and can I install the LSJ LEAK 3 FILE by mobile odin?

I had this sane chip in my note2, and I tried several times to wipe, or to restore, but it ended up with paying $300.00 to get a new motherboard.

[Q] How to root 4.2.2

Hi all.
I flashed I9300XXUFME3 on my S3 and I want to root it.
How do I can to root it?
A way without cf-root please.
Hi
The procedure is the same as for 4.1.2.... Simply flash cwm with Odin and that's all

cf-root is a primary root and I want to Install super user not super su and I want to root it fully.
Sounds like an odd reason.
Why not just flash a rooted 4.2.2 rom?
Anyway I don't know a file that used super user.

Not cf-root

No. I would link you to cf-auto root. You seem to have no valid reason not to use it and its the standard nowadays.

I think the ones on their website is 4.4.2 I could be wrong. Not sure if they updated their rom base to kitkat. U should try the one out in the development section for the s4. Someone made a port of it for our phone.

R u dl'in from ur phone or pc? Dl'in with ur phone has more of a chance of getting a bad dl'ed. Happens to me when I'm not around a pc. If u r using a pc make sure if the MD5 matches. If it does just keep trying different mirrors one of them will go threw hopefully :banghead:
