Your Way to Update to MB1

[Devtodi]

Just flash the modem and ROM in post #2. If you skip the factory reset you won't lose any data or apps.

Post #2 says I need to be on MA6 and I am on LJ7. Also states it is for rooted with custom recovery - is that clockwork mod? thanks.

Post #1 says that. Not post 2. Post 2 is a full ROM and doesn't require you to be up to date.

Either CWM or twrp, either is fine.

Does the method in post #2 also require MA6 first, or can I do it from LJ7?

Sorry, disregard, answered above. I didn't see it....

Updating the modem/firmware also puts you at 4.1.2 or stays at 4.1.1?

It will only change the baseband version to MB1. Baseband is your modem.

After updating to Factory 4.1.2 ROM (January 2013 Build N7100OZSDMA6), I rooted my phone (using Odin) to fix a wifi problem caused by the 4.1.2 update. I replaced the 4.1.2 wifi files with the 4.1.1 wifi files. My wifi now functions properly, and the phone is still rooted and I have not reset the counter to zero. There is now a newer factory build of 4.1.2 (February 2013 Build N7100OZSDMB1).

If I go to the phone Settings-Update to perform an OTA update, I cannot install the latest Factory ROM, apparently because my counter is not set to zero and/or because my phone is rooted.

What steps do I need to take to install the latest Factory ROM either manually or OTA?

Once I Install the latest Factory ROM my phone will not longer be rooted and the counter will set to zero -- correct?

Why do you say that? MA6 is a GS3 build.

You can't use the ota update while rooted on custom recovery. If you have the sprint gs3, use the method in post #2 of this thread. It plainly states this in the 1st 2 posts.

I said it because N7100OZSDMB1 appears to be for the Note II, from what I can tell.

Sorry, my post is for the international Note II (N7100 Hong Kong Software). I don't see the N7100 listed in any of the forums, so I'll look elsewhere for information.

I apologize if this is a stupid question, but I just want to double check before messing with my phone, this is the latest update for the Sprint Galaxy S3 right? I am on LJ7 and my phone has been bugging me to update for about a week now, but a google search told me the latest is L710VPMA6, did they just release two in a row or something?

Thanks so much!

 

[dcharleyultra]

Yup, they released two in a row.

[meyerweb#CB]

Yes, this is for the Sprint S3, and yes, Sprint released two in a row. MB1 is apparently intended to fix a bug in MA6.

 

[Peter Android]

Awesome, thanks guys.

I need to update my cwm recovery before I can do a nandroid backup (getting the error message) . can I do that by flashing or do I need to use Odin?

As long as you have the zip version you can just flash it in recovery. If you have the year version it will require Odin.

You can also just load ROM manager from the play store and let it update you.

 

[James Sturgell]

If you are Rooted and have custom recovery this is for you.

This is the Full Stock MB1 Pre-Rooted in a zip file. You would flash these files like you would any other ROM. The Rom and firmware (radio) are 2 separate zips.
Please thank freeza in his xda thread.

1. Download files and put them on you external or internal sdcard.
2. Wipe cache, wipe dalvik, factory Reset
3. Flash Firmware
4. Flash ROM
5. Reboot
