Okay. I have done the research and surfed every possible forum that i can see from (however i could be wrong) and still have yet to find a way to unbrick this phone successfully. I have tried everything from One Clicker to Odin to Kies and none seem to work. I would greatly appreciate any advice on this device from anyone that has one and bricked it or knows someone who has bricked it. I am not looking for a miracle just a friendly solution that will maybe help not only me but i am sure many other unfortunate US cellular Mega victims that have yet to get their hands on the official firmware. In the mean time i will continue to tinker and if i came across any thing i will update as soon as possible. Thanks in advance and hopefully myself or someone else can find a solution.
Okay updating status on this unfortunately everything I tried did not work. So to save any us cellular mega users a heart ache hold off on rooting until a valid real root for this provider and model omes out. Or at least until the official firmware is released. Sorry I could not find a viable solution.

Greetings XDA,
Lets say a Galaxy S II was rooted and then deleted some files from the system and edited some others. Then that Galaxy S II started malfunctioning and be useless.
How can you remove rooting and everything get back to original [ meaning like never rooted or edited files ] ?
Don't get upset i am a noob indeed and maybe annoying but i am a lawyer and i only play with papers. I gave this colleague of me my phone because he wanted to "see" something, at least that's what he said, and i went to the meeting, then he ran to find me and told me he messed it a little bit.
Can it be restored?
Will flashing firmware unroot the device and restore files back to stock?
Thanks anyone who answers or even view the thread.
Find your original firmware in intratechs thread and flash it through odin
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
You're sparse with info, like most lawyers..
If you can boot into download mode, do so and flash a stock ROM via Odin. System files will be restored but you'll lose root. If that goes well then you can re-root
Then you should boot your colleague in testicle mode.

My colleague still tries to find info on internet on how to restore it and keeps saying how sorry he is. Why do i need to reroot? I don't want to be rooted.
Does it need to be rooted? Because he rooted it i never wanted that.
Will doing so bring up all manipulated files?
A lawyer doesn't lie, just manipulates truth and info

I can't seem to log on to Samfirmware at the moment, don't know why, so I can't check the available firmwares or your link.
Is there a BOKK1 firmware for Cosmote there? If so, that's the one you want.
If not, is your phone locked to Cosmote?

If you're not locked, any Cosmote firmware should be fine.
For one last check, dial *#1234# on your phone and post what it says for PDA, Phone and CSC.
I just got a new galaxy note i717 and I don't have a pc atm, and I want to know if its possible if I can put a jellybean Rom update on my i717 without a pc? If so, how? I want an upgrade from ics, Ty so much for answer and help!
Flashing CWM usually requires a program called Odin that not only enables root access to your phone but other things as well. With CWM there is no need for a computer just an SD card for safety then you can follow flashing instructions!

All the links don't work, thanks though, but is there any links that work? Thanks a million
Seriously? I just tried no less than 10 links on the page (including the ones that you need) and they worked fine. What method are you using to access xda? I'm kind of concerned that if you can't get the links to work, your phone may be the next non working thing in your life.
I suggest you spend some time reading before acting. I'd hate if your next thread is a "Help I've bricked my phone" thread. Good luck and happy flashing

Hi guys my dad just bought me a phone and I've been researching and it appears to be a fake. It's model number is is still gt i9300. I saw a previous thread and someone had the exact same one and he was able to root and get it to the actual stock rom of the real gs3. There must be a way to do this but I need someone to give me a link to a specific tutorial to do this. It runs 4.1.1 and still has the specs of the s3 just not the Samsung apps and isn't made by Samsung.. Someone please reply and tell me what I can do. I'm still a noob at this stuff so try to explain everything in depth.. Thanks.

Many of us on the root bounty for i527 forum are stuck because we can't find anyone with our firmware. We have exhausted every method we can think of to pull it from the phone with no success.

Yes the root browser only really works on rooted phones but I have looked at every sub folder as well as did a adb pull from the whole phone so far nothing.
i know this is probably a really stupid question, but i'll ask anyway. Has anybody tried plugging the phone up to a computer and tried like the mass storage type thingy?

Now that there's root for the 1527 for at&t is there a way to get the firmware download now for Odin.

I would rather just get the firmware download and fix it myself in three minutes instead of sending it to Samsung for repair for two weeks

I would post this in the root bounty forum. Believe you need a tar.md5 file for that. They have already pulled the files, think it's just a matter of compiling it. It may be a couple of days before we start seeing things like flashable files for odin or twrp and so on.

Pay close attention to steps 16-17. Good Luck.
After this update to the newest recovery- cwm or TWRP (making sure you get the working versions for our device) and the development forums are your oyster so to speak.
Edit: Sometimes just flashing a superuser app will do the trick if this is your only issue, but if you came from stock this is how I started back in the day.
Edit: Some ROMs also require root access in developer options set to "apps and adb".
