Root [Sprint/Cricket] Newest OTA update blocking cwm rocovery through odin?

[TookRDerbs]

So i bought my SGS3 today at BestBuy and when she started up the phone she let it update as soon as she set it up. looked everywhere on google trying to find out when this OTA came out and if any Devs had cooked up a way to flash CWM via Oden and have came up with squat. i think the last root method came out june 20ish. Ive tried all three (thats how many i found) .TAR files through Odin and keep getting stuck on "Writing"recovery.img"" Ive used 2 different versions of Odin, and im kinda at a loss... ive rooted a samsung (samsung galaxy prevail) and an LG Marquee and done a bunch of work flashing ROMs, kernals, and everything else you can flash to a phone. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated trying to get this thing rooted
