Hello guys!
This is my first post here. I read a lots of things here, but none covered whats happening to me.
So, I have my P500 which I bricked earlier today. Don't ask me how I got it unbricked, I don't remember. I installed that leaked GB rom that is avaliable here and it worked.
So, just after that, I got the right GB for me, and installed using KDZ. Now I can't update my phone with LG software. There is some way to bypass this?
Also, after updating Superuser, I can't update su bin anymore, only gives me error. What is wrong? The wifi is on and it is stable, but no luck.
Sorry if all of these are already covered, I didn't found it anywhere.
Solved eveything. LG won't update anymore, I think it is because the custom recovery I installed.
I got Superuser working (updating su binaries) by uninstalling the auto-updated version and downloading it again from Market. Now everything seems fine.
Hope this help someone someday.
Hi,
i bought a Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 about two months ago, it's a Spanish device. I think the device came with 4.0.1 update of ICS, some weeks after buying it got 4.0.4 update and then using CF-Root 6.4 and Odin 1.85 managed to get root access so i was able to install busybox and UMS application from xda forums. So everything was working fine. Then, about 3 days ago i got an update notification which showed me a message which said "Updates will be provided in the request order preference" or something like this, i tried to update a few times more but no luck, i always got the same messages so i thought i had to wait for 4.1 update to get published but anyway everything was working fine.
The curious thing is yesterday ( August 25, 2012), when i woke up i noticed a firmware update was ready to be installed so went through it (without uninstalling CF-Root 6.4, supersu, etc.) but the strange thing was, after the update completed fine, went to settings to check the version and i saw it still/again was 4.0.4 version of ICS. Also noticed Google Play Books and Google Play Movies got installed so on one hand it seemed everything went fine cause new apps were there and everything worked as expected but on the other hand i think i already had 4.0.4 update installed on the device. Till that point one can think i got confused on the versions i got installed before the update and no major problem here. After that, as i already had root access on the device, i went to check if i still could run UMS app but it complained about missing root access so as i did before that last Android update took CF-Root 6.4 and Odin 1.85 to flash the device and get root access again (Without removing any previous install of CF-Root, super su, busybox, etc. ) but had no luck, so now it's not possible for me get root access again but i'm also still wondering how is it possible that today's update left the phone with the same Android version as before the update.
The only explanation i can find is the phone came with 4.0 version, first update got me to 4.0.1 and today's update guided me to the 4.0.4 but i'm still wondering why root access is not working as it should.
So my questions are, did i got confused about each version update? Then why can't i get root access again just repeating the same first process?
When opening busybox i can read "Not Enough Free Space in /system". Opening /system directory with Root Explorer i can read 1.05GB used, 436.39MB free. Is it right /system directory takes up to 1GB of the space? Why Busybox thinks there is 0.0MB free there?
Hope someone can help. Thanks in advanced!
Thousands of posts say OTA updates may fail if the phone is rooted .
Usual is to fail part way through an update ..
Suggest wipe the phone flash stock rom with Odin then root .

Thanks a lot for the info. Am i going to loose installed apps, system settings, etc when doing the suggested process? Do i really need to wipe the phone before flashing the phone? I suppose i can find stock rom for my model here in the forums. Thanks!!
Hi,
i'm looking for a stock firmware for my SGS3 BaseBand I9300XXLH1 but i'm not able to find it. I think the firmware which came with my phone is unbranded and from Spain. But the question which i'm wondering is, do i really need to flash the phone? Isn't possible to solve the issue in another manner? After updating through OTA the rooted device, what's supposed to went wrong?
Lastly, what's wrong on updating a stock rooted firmware using Phone/Android update system? Don't understand how doing that can break the phone forcing me to wipe data and flash the phone.
Hope someone can help. Thanks a lot!
PD: After rebooting the phone in recovery mode i can see stock recovery has been installed with last update. Hope someone can make a bit of sense about it all. Thanks in advanced.

Get your firmware from here http://www.samfirmware.com/
then use odin to flash it, I had the same problem
Baseband is modem not firmware.

Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Thanks to both for your answers. Maybe it's stupid but i'm some what more peaceful knowing other people also happened the same issue although it still feels very weird. All i did is flashing with CF-Root 6.4.
I've been looking for the stock firmware which is supposed to came with my phone at sammobile site but i'm not able to find it, although at that point ( where the phone got the same update twice, 4.0.4 ) i don't think i can trust the information provided by the phone. Under phone settings i can see Model Number is GT-l9300 and Base Band Version is i9300XXLH1 but i can't find it no sammobile site. What i find at sammobile site is I9300XXBLH1 ( notice B letter ) but i think that before this weird behaviour happened the phone showed Base Band Version I9300XXBLFB.
Is it all possible or the weird one is me?
Kickasskev, did you got 4.0.4 update twice?
Thanks again to all!
REPEAT BASEBAND IS NOT FIRMWARE nor is it firmware version .
To locate firmware try CHECKFUS .
Or stock providers roms from the sticky on XDA .

0. Remove all root apps from your phone.
1. Back up your rooted rom in cWM.
2. Use triangle away to get rid of the traingle.
3. Format system and cache.
4. Flash an official rom.
5. You should have all your apps + settings on a stock rom without the status being 'modified'.

I've used checkfus and now i know my firmware.
Thanks for the step by step tips, but my phone is not rooted so i cannot use cwm, triangleapp and so. I. Annot also remove cwm manager nor supersu. I suppose i'll have to flash stock firmware first of all. Am i right?
Pretty strange, first time i rooted the device through cf-root6.4 it run flawlessly, but now i had to remove the battery after flashing ( while device was on ) and enter into recovery mode by hand which started the rooting process.
Thanks!
Good evening guys, I think I've made a mess: I recently flashed the 4.3 on my s3 lte, this afternoon I made the root and I flashed the ClockworkMod, but when I restart the phone I get this message: An application attempted to gain unauthorized access with the design of knox;
the strange thing is that I can not find the superuser in the drawer, I also flashed superuser from recovery but I have not solved
the root is present because some applications that previously did not work because it needed the root now work
I wait impatiently for your help
I'm Italian sorry for my English school
thank you very much

Hmm there is no knox for s3 yet so im not sure whats causing the issue. Try reflashing stock rom and installing superuser from playstore. Also you are posing in the wrong place mate. Check before your post. Questions related to I9305 belong here >>>http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help-i9305
Hi i have solved with flash of philz cwm and superuser thanks
Hey guys new around these parts... anyway.. I succesfully rooted the LG G3 using "Stump Root" on my friends phone... she enjoyed the benefits of having a rooted phone for about 3 weeks before she came in to work and told me her Pandora One and Pandora Patcher weren't working anymore... i checked Xpossed Installer thinking that was the problem... thats when i noticed the phone wasnt allowing me root access... when i open up SuperSU it says "there is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. this is a problem, If you just upgraded to Android 4.3, you need to manually re-root-consult the relevant forums for your device"... maybe she did a system update because her phone is showing Android 4.4.2... so that is why i am now here... asking for your assistance... I know i'm a newbee or whatever term might apply, but assistance would be much appreciated... everything else i have accomplished on my own so far, but one could say I'm a bit "STUMP-ed" on this one.. pun intended. please someone help me with re-rooting this LGg3... i hope fixing it is as easy as the initial "stump root" process.
Hi im wondering if anyone can help i have an xperia z2.
I recently used the rooting method on the site but did nothing with the bootloader.
now i cannot access the recovery menu and although root checker shows as rooted super su says i need to update the binary. It will not allow me to do this.
Im not sure what to do now as i dont seem able to update this. Can anyone help,my end goal is to fully unlock the phone.
Hmm when I rooted in thought I had to download the super su app from the website. Try this one http://download.chainfire.eu/396/SuperSU/
How do i go about installing this?
I thought I downloaded the app, clicked update binaries and it worked.
