Yeah. I don't have the phone any more and didn't bother uploading the file to my servers. So it may be a bit slow but it must be getting hit real hard if it's taking that long.

Thanks Skunk. I do remember reading that he didn't want to go through all the work for such minimal changes; and I don't think think anyone can blame him. So will WS v2.1 continue to run if I flash the MB1 modem/firmware only and keep the same WS v2.1 ROM? As with everything else, it seems as though the more I learn the less I know!

Can you temporary unroot using something like Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper and download the ota update or are the steps in the first post the only way to go?

I have a newbie root question. How do I know if I rooted with custom recovery or not? I used your following instructions to root my phone:

You would also have to reinstall the stock recovery. To use the method in post 1.
My suggestion would be to do the method in post 2. Much easier than post 1.
Skunkape,
In the first posted you wrote the following:
"Note: You must be current and have MA6 on your phone before using the update file."
Before I follow the steps in post 2 how can I make sure I am current and have MA6.

Settings / About Device (scroll all the way down)
Baseband version and Build number should end in MA6. If they don't, follow the instructions here to get to MA6: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sprint-galaxy-s-iii/252327-your-way-update-ma6.html

Great news! I'll flash it when I get home from work. So are all modems (as long as they are a latter version) compatible with any ROM that were built on a former modem? Or is it just specific to Dazed's WS?

They're pretty much independent of the ROM. Meaning you can run the modem on any ROM built for your device.
Thanks Skunk, I'll redownload the ROM and try again this weekend. I haven't a clue why I was loosing root. Maybe something was corrupted when I downloaded, so I'll try fresh. I didn't check the md5. I'll also try a clean flash with full wipe.
I'm on TWRP recovery running WS 2.1 - Can I only update the modem/firmware? Or this is only for CMW recovery?
Ok i got the firmware/modem part... now If I'm running WS2.1 ROM, which is best Odexed or Deodexed? Thanks
The firmware is as far as you go... If you want to stay on wicked sensations you can't flash either of the roms. They will replace wicked sensations with stock.
Just flash the modem and ROM in post #2. If you skip the factory reset you won't lose any data or apps. Have you even read any of this thread? It has been answered multiple times.
