Root [Boost Mobile] Tri-Band S3 (SPH-L710T)

I deleted everything off my internel and external and put that nandroid into internal and external along with my rom. And still nothing. Still saying "No files found"

EDIT: Forgot to put my sd card back into my phone haha. But it finally did something and then IT said "MD5 mismatch"..

What does that mean.


Hi. I've been lurking for a bit, trying to decide whether or not to tinker with my wife's phone (sph-L710T), and so far...you guys haven't convinced me yet. :) Anyway, to answer your question, to the best of my googling skills, I'm pretty sure you erased the .android_secure file on your phone which is why you are getting the mismatch. I believe this file is created when your phone is rooted. I have provided a pic of the md5 file opened in notepad for reference. All of the files below the first two are provided by Morro's dropbox download. The first two you need to have on your sd card.
