Hi, I just got my new S3 SPH-L710 Virgin mobile. It's running 4.1.2 JB. I rooted it and flashed CWM today. The problem is it won't let me install the root or CWM. It shows CWM and ROOT but says device blocked when I try to install it and then reboots itself after 15 seconds. Anyone else have this problem? It's a CDMA phone with no sim card. Is there a code to put in to unlock the block? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Dave

So is this happening while the phone is in download mode and connected to a pc running Odin?

No This is after its unhooked from the computer and has restarted. I then shut it off, restart it holding power, menu, volume up until it goes in odin mode. That's when it searches and tries to install but all apps say device blocked. Then after 10 seconds it reboots its self. I also put titanium backup on it and it wont install this either.

Yeah its volume DOWN but if that was a typo then i dont know sorry. Ask in the all things root forum for your carrier version (ive never even owned a phone without a sim lol)
