I have the phone plugged into computer and i typed those commands in cmd and it says adb is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

enable adb debbugging in device system settings
install adb drivers
root your device...
i could be wrong here but i think you need an unsecured boot.img in order to do a full system pull via adb, if thats the case than use pg's rooted kernel.. it works!!! lol
 
I have a stock pull with no root straight out the box using adb. Let me know if you want me to zip it up and send to you all, I or I can apply the root and updated binary.

after looking at a updater from a S3 rom off xda, I'm thinking its permissions on the radio bin files in system. ;)
