For anyone that doesn't know, @justinswidebody has purchased a sprint variant LG G3 for no other reason than to send it by mail to @thecubed in an attempt to get us root. Proof is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=54829826
To me, this is amazing! I wish I could afford to help him with his expense, but I'm not sure I can at the moment.
What I can do is make this thread in hopes that he will post right under me (if he noticed the mention) so that myself, and everyone that wants sprint root can at least give him a thanks for what he did.
But that's not all hes good for, he's also said that he thinks he has a tether mod for us once we get root.
I'm glad you got a g3 Justin, and thanks again!
Please wait on posting here so that justin has a chance to grab 2nd post and hopefully we can rack up his thanks meter and get him some donations.

Well thank you very much for the shout out. I really appreciate it.
I don't think I can get us tether.... I know I can. looks like my traditional method should work. But if not I Will find a new way.
Once again thank you
Yes, super special thanks to @justinswidebody for that - without him we'd still be weeks behind for Sprint root, rather than just a day away.
You're the man!
Yes thank you justin you are the s*** and i really appreciate what you have don't for the sprint community, me included. Who knows how much longer it might have taken if you didn't get our devs what they needed to perform the magic that they do. ( i say magic because its beyond my scope of comprehension)
Edit**** sorry cubed special thanks to you too for you time your a man among boys

Aye, they never once gave up on rooting the 1.49, even when it seemed all hope was lost.
THANKS!!! (and a little something)
`mods, you beat me to it. I was just thinking how there needed to be a thread where users can say there thanks to all the devs, testers, and mods out there. I can't tell you how happy I am to be able to modify my phone as I please. I love to tinker with things, make them better and to make them ME.
Also, I just want to stress the importance of SEARCHING AND READING!!!! I made the mistake early on of just either creating a new thread or posting in the wrong thread just so I wouldn't have to read to find the answer. THAT WAS FREAKIN STUPID ON MY PART!!! I wish I would have just read up on everything I wanted to know in the beginning. I would have saved myself a ton of headaches and resets. I would have also learned more than what I know now. I now know that if I want to ask a question, to just search for it first. I can't count the times that someone else has asked the same questions that have been answered countless times. And if I'm wanting to try a script, or change my lock screen or something along those lines, IT HELPS TO READ ALL OF THE POSTS IN THAT PARTICULAR THREAD particularly because most likely, someone with your setup has encountered some sort of problem, did some troubleshooting, and posted a fix for it.
Anyway, I'll get off my box. I mainly wanted to say thanks, but also try to save some headaches.
THANKS!!!!
Sorry if this is COMPLETELY newb, got my flame suit on just in case...
But it would be great if we could have one of those people who got the 3D early to let the devs here borrow the phone to work with the bootloader.
If the certain individual needs to be financially motivated, slap a donate button on either his username or another well respected member's name so the community can send gifts of thanks his way.
How great would it be to have it up and running starting june 24th...?
I got your donation right here!

The phone is coming out in a week dude.
After it gets permarooted, I have no obligations to throw in $10-20
Sent from my Samsuck Vibrant
wow. guess i really needed that suit. with this kinda attitude, i am incredibly grateful that the devs overlook these types of comments and still provide their work to us for use for free.
if the same sentiment is shared by the community, we can just let this thread die.
Donating $10 or $20 is one thing vs. donating a $500 to $600 phone. Even a small donation is appropriate if you find a DEVs efforts worthwhile, show your support!
If I use a dev's work because he makes my phone better, I have no issues donating to them.. but I'm not handing cash over to someone so they can get a phone in hopes that they do something great... specially before I have my own.

Trust me, I'm sure one of the devs will have something great for us before we're completely done playing with our phones. The phone will be released in less than a week. We can be patient.

agreed.. plus we have several devs that have already said that they are getting it.. some that have reached legendary status around here, so its not like we are going to have a shortage.. you like what they do once they do it, or you have a dev you know is coming, then donate..
For some reason I don't have this on my current ROM. Can someone hook me up? I don't have the option to edit images within the gallery.apk so I'm assuming is because this is missing...

well for starters you might want to tell people what rom your on and which apk you talking about there are alot of photo editors
Its the stock photo editor. While in Gallery you can edit the photo with the s pen...
I'm on the objective ROM, but that shouldn't make any difference in this instance.

The above screenshot was loaded from gallery and what's missing is the EDIT function in the menu.

What you might be looking for is PhotoRetouching.apk. And it should be in system/app
For future reference it does matter what ROM. You should be able to pull it yourself from another ROM like flappjaxxx's base or the OnlyOne.

I know it matters what ROM I'm using, that's why I said for this instance it doesn't matter. I have that app installed but still no editing like before...even reinstalled it. No difference...

Well to be honest it wasn't what I was looking for, and it's my fault for not knowing what i really needed. but here's a consolation thank you.
I still don't have the cool editing feature with the s pen like before...
Update (5/23): Just to clarify, this doesn't unlock the bootloader as previously thought, it just helps ROM/kernel/recovery developers bypass it: Link Here

check out foldermount. might help with the pain of the smaller storage size. basically moves data to the external SD, but leaves a symlink on the internal so that apps, etc that point to that directory can still access the files. obviously not the same as a larger internal storage, but at least it helps.
I didn't figure it was going to take long for the phone to be rooted, and custom recoveries/roms installed. It didn't take long for the GS3 to fall to the modding community.
Once you root, NO MORE OTAS!!!!
People will read that, and still do it anyway, and well, that's on them.
This is the best news I've heard related to Verizon in a long time.

Mine will be here within a couple of hours -- I'd love to have root, just so I can do a TB restore from my gnex.

oh man, i couldnt take it anymore. ingress should me how really terrible the service was.
got mine last night, ready for root... :good:
I'm going to try out stock for at least a few days. I'm coming from a DINC2 running CM7 in preparation for this. It's going to be a nice boost in every regard, I think.
The lure of root is tough to beat, though. I've only ever had HTC smartphones, so I've been used to waiting a month or two for root. This might be tough.
this is awesome. super excited!

Unfortunately so, it looks like Verizon had time to upgrade to the new secure kernel (same as Sprint's latest OTA). And now we all know why they wanted to take that extra month.
So the company Poetic Cases gives away a free case each week. Figured I'd start a thread where I can alert folks as to when they mention a new case giveaway for the Note 3.
Right now they're doing a Halloween giveaway that will grant the winner a free case for the device they choose:

Thanks for starting the thread. I went ahead and entered the costume contest, so any votes from XDA would be appreciated! I'll do a nice and lengthy review on whichever case I end up with if I win as a way to give a little something back to the community .
I'm the penny. I'd love your vote!

Every vote helps
A bunch of others jumped way up and a buddy discovered you can vote more than once after he refreshed and kept seeing the Spiderman going up by one every refresh. If you vote, then refresh the page, you can vote again. I know the case isn't worth much, but I just want to win one of these contests for once.
If anyone gets a chance to hop on and put some votes in, I'd appreciate it! I can't make up that gap on my own!
haha that's awesome, I saw that one. You definitely got my vote man.
And holy crap, dude! It looks like they used your submission for a Facebook post yesterday hahah that's awesome.

Ha ha... I saw that. Glad you guys like the costume.
I put this on a different forum and I think one of them figured out how to exploit the loophole. I jumped up a ton today.
Unless it was someone here....
Thanks for the votes. We'll see if it holds out until tomorrow!
Ha ha ha.. that's rich coming from a Gap cashier. Not worried about his opinion.
Time to vote, though! Need unique votes to win! Ends at midnight.
