So I have a Galaxy S3 from Virgin that I have been very please with. This morning I got a message that there was a system update to install. So I did (I'm not sure if this was upgrading to Kit Kat or what) and once it did I could not get it to boot past the Samsung logo. I tried everything, clearing the cache, recovery through Keis (which would not communicate with the phone or recognize my phone's serial number) and finally a factory reset.
Still stuck on the Samsung logo every time.
So I went to the Samsung website, downloaded the latest firmware for my model phone (which said "Sprint" in the description but they ALL did so I didn't have much choice). I installed it using ODIN and it finally booted up and I started installing my Google stuff. Only I noticed the lock screen now says "Sprint" on it and there is an option for Sprint Hotpots in the settings which was not there before.
I can make calls with it, even with wi-fi turned off but I don't see a 4G or 3G symbol in the status bar.
Have I majorly screwed up?
