Hi Guys,
Here you can find rooted stock kernels (without any modifications, only "insecure" root added) for CANADIAN versions of Galaxy S III (SGH-I747M).
This WILL rise your custom binary counter.
Insecure Means that adb daemon on phone is working as root. If you need more answers on what is insecure kernel, search over xda forums, the answer is there.
To flash, use latest ODIN (3.07) : Download Here!
*LATEST ROGERS* - I747MVLALE8
*LATEST BELL* - I747MVLALE8
*LATEST TELUS* - I747MVLALE8
Enjoy!
Code:
Instructions:
- Run odin
- unpack zip (you should see .tar file inside)
- point to this TAR file in odin as PDA
- click flash
- done

There is no separate threads for Canadian devices, so this is the good thread. If mod will decide otherway then he will move it.

Technically there is a separate thread. It's the AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3 development because their both the same model I747

These are I747M, and is incompatible with the American counterpart.
Does anyone know where I could find these as cwm flashable zips? I am specifically looking for Rogers.

He was talking about i9300. This section is meant for i9300 and not i747 or its variants. Read this sticky http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1757755

Except they are not ROM compatible, just like tons of phones with similar variations out there regardless how closely resemble they are in terms of hardware.

Can anyone who has used the root for Bell advise if they still have LTE?
rooting does not affect LTE or any other GSM connectivity.
Do you know if any of these would work on a Sasktel SGS3? The Sasktel CSC is BWA (also I747MVLALE8)... I want to root but I haven't seen any stock rooted images specifically for Sasktel yet.
Can you flash these via recovery?

I did every XDA-worthy member would do. I nandroid backed the hell out of my rom. But after flashing back nandroid rom, signal is still elusive.
I have downloaded the stock rom and flashed it. Modem came back.
I figured out a way to extract the modem.bin from the stock rom. Therefore if I flash the custom rom for N7100 which bust my modem, I can flash the modem.bin from my N7105 stock rom to regain modem in my custom rom right? Wrong. something more than modem.bin is messing with the signals if one flashes an N7100 custom rom unto an N7105 rom.

i wanted to look at contents compared to the US/Asian LTE devices, and so far those firmwares look the same, so the freq change is in the chipset. but i checked the leak US firmware and that one also had cdma features so although similar it was featuring cdma instead of gsm.
like n7100 for different reqions got pretty much the same firmware with changes to brand and whatever smaller software change they make for that country.
point was if the frequency issue was software or hardware, and so far the n7105 europe firmware looks similar besides the fact a US firmware got cdma, and confirmed is that it is very different from n7100 radio firmware and should not be installed.
On sammobile tgey have it too ... just take a look ...

So what must be done to gain phone signals back if one installs a N7100 custom rom into a N7105? If the problem is with the chipset there is nothing much we can do about it right?

I'm guessing that some lib files are needed to work properly with the modem.

well, i assume all libril and libsec and those related to controlling LTE as well.
but since 7100 and 7105 are so different radio wise, there might be something else used to controll radio than what 7100 uses, which could be required in the roms for 7100, but maybe soon we will see roms for both devices at the same time.

I did the same mistake as you did.
Don't panic though.
I downloaded a stock N7105XXALIJ rom and flash it using PC odin.
Everything is back to normal.
Then I rooted it using this guide:
http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/s...-rom-flashing-tutorial-r-d-stage-3942841.html
Everything is perfect so far.
So I'm new to this forum, and I've done some reading and I'm a bit confused. I'm seeing some roms available making me believe that the bootloader has been unlocked and a method is out there on how to root and install a custom recovery. Can anyone help clear this up for me? Thanks!

This forum is combined with other variants of the GS4. If you're using the AT&T Galaxy S4, your bootloader is locked and is going to be until Dan releases the hack.

Well you can begin by going to Sammobile and download the carrier's stock firmware. Flash it via odin. Stay on stock until you figure out how to fix 4G on custom roms.
Good luck, Im sure you'd be able fix it by flashing stock rom

The modem is part of any full firmware and is usually different for each provider, region etc.
I believe the US lte frequencies are different to most of the other countries so if you don't have the correct modem your phone may be looking for the wrong frequency.
Try this link: http://www.rwilco12.com/downloads.php?dir=Files/Devices/Samsung Galaxy S4 (SPH-L720)/Modems
Flash the .tar file in odin in the phone section.
Edit: just remembered when the first ipad to have lte was released in Australia, Apple and resellers got into big trouble for marketing it as lte/4g. This was because although it was lte it didn't actually work with Australian lte frequencies. So as I mentioned above you will need a US modem. That's my best bet to get it going again.

On the Note 3 N900w8 users got lucky, they could downgrade to JellyBean and back to Kitkat without issues, could root (on JB) without tripping KNOX and can pretty much flash ANY international ROM on their device (in this case the N9005 ROMs, N900T ROMs etc) -- IT is possible, now I use this term very very loosely that you *may* be able to flash a whole lot more than w8 only ROMs.

There are none. All the stock ROMs require Odin to install and the Touchwiz ROMs in the Development subforums I believe are modified in some way, usually by importing features from the S5 or S6.
