Root [MetroPCS/CDMA] Its time..

i'm having internet connection issues with my wifi...
It's timing out everytime, and I have to try to resume the upload...
Not cool... It's been over an hour already! :(
I should just hotspot and upload on metro's 4G, lol!
 
question..does anyone find that their s3 battery going down fast??
Recharged to 100% at 7:00. Download Adobe Air, installed it, messed around with the task manager a bit (press and hold Home). Right now I'm at 95%.
The phone seems to hold charge better as I do more recharges.
 
dudes why not make a free drop box account, put the files in there and just share the passwords would that be quicker?

I have a dropbox account... with 4Gb of data on it...
It's kinda almost maxed out, and the file is too big to fit with what I have left.
I have a bunch of old Samsung Galaxy Indulge files, some website backup files and a truckload of pics and docs on that thing.
I just didn't have any more space...

(and i don't do the whole fake_email+new_box thing). I love dropbox, and since I am using their service currently for free, i'm not going to abuse it...
 
no, it shouldn't.
It should be "virgin" as far as anyone can tell...
Well, a dev would probably notice a temp su file in /data/local, but that's details... ;)
 
kk, ready when you are lol
i am too i really need that stock rom for i can fix this phone... i still can't beleve that i soft brick this phone with out trying to add root... i can't beleve samsung messed up my phone and now i have to root to fix it:confused:
 
Jaynpt, apeiiron shouldhave the file by now. If it works, he'll share the link with you.
For now, I hope you understand why, it's only a private link.

Apeiiron when you see this, consider it my okay to pass the link to jay if it works for you.
If both of you report that it works, then I'll start a formal thread with the file included.

Yup mine is as well unfortunately I guess it also has to do our area, it has to be this is my third Lte phone from metropcs all has battery problem while others have great battery life looks like my area network is crazy.
 
All good nuttmeg I guess the prl is different on a Samsung this is my first experience with Samsung this phone is flawless

Mike I rooted my phone already, but I had a problem with a friend's phone. I use the all in one option of the toolkit for mine and everything went OK, but when I tried with my friend's phone I had the same problem as apeiiron. We went to a metro store and told them that kies update killed it (thanks apeiiron for this) and they got us a new phone. On the new phone I tried another method and it worked great. I just followed the steps on the video.

I wish that stupid gigasize file hosting server wasn't garbage.
I'm planning on using Google drive as my storage location for the stock rom pull after I test it again.
Sorry I kinda let you down, apeiiron.
