Root [Boost Mobile] Working ROMS/MODS/KERNELS/MODEMS/ECT for the Boost S3

Hello, Does anyone know where I can find instructions or a tutorial on returning my S3 to completely stock. Right now its rooted with custom rom and recovery. I am going to sell it, its a Boost Mobile phone. I have upgraded to a G3 and do not need this phone anymore. The S3 has been a awsome phone and I've had a case on it since I bought it so it looks completely new. Thanks again.

Excellent. The easiest route would be to flash the firmware again with Odin. It may or may not wipe all the data so you may or may not have to do a factory reset after. Kind of mixed reports on that. But this will remove root, custom recovery, and return the phone to out of the box firmware.

I
Can i flash this over stock rooted with anf4
I will need to flash ktoonz kernel too. Correct?
I have boost l710t phone.Just want to be sure.Thanks!

The KT kernel comes with the ROM. As far as it working with the T model, go to the ROM thread and ask. I think it will but I'm not positive. Make a post in the thread and ask whether it will work. The guys over there will help you out.

Yeah. That post kinda lost me too. What in the world is he talking about paying so much money for?
That sucksI developers work so hard n only ask for small donation only if u want to supply for all of their hard work. N yet someone has the gal to sell something that don't belong to them n not even offer any of that to Donation. Really pisses me off!!!! :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Everything works great on it so far seems to be a cool rom no errors other than my own lmao..
at first glance it appears to have just a plain jane deal to it but once you explore it you start to discover this rom has way more than what it appears.. has alot of good options to it...
So far I have no complaints to it.

Just tried to install it anyways just to see my luck means it was just my B-Day on the 6th I thought some luck would burst my way lmao..
But well it:( didn't work so I recovered back to Wicked Sensations no biggy.
Just thought it would be cool to see another rom come to the table...
cheers everyone..:D
It says d2lte. It should work. D2lte is all u.s. versions unified.

It said mine was spr d2lte and the rom was for strange enough i do remember seeing my first rom being on my phone was dlte cause i asked wetbiker way back when n he told me pretty much any d2lte will work.
Im still trying to figure it out. I know it is in the installer script i will just mod the script to accept spr dlte should allow it to go but i think it would be safer is if i can find out why first.

D2LTE is a unified build built to run for several carriers. Before they came out with the D2LTE unified build we were having to remove the asserts so Sprint ROMs would flash on Boost phones.

I haven't been messing with the AOSP based ROMs lately but I'm pretty sure I remember it being mentioned that they were doing away with the D2LTE unified builds. I did check out one of the newer Sprint builds and it didn't have any asserts that needed to be removed. That means it should flash on our Boost phones with no issues. Like I said though. I haven't been messing with AOSP ROMs so I'm not sure what the other Dev teams are doing with their builds.
