Hi...I had a custom cm firmware of 4.4.4 on my white metro pcs cdma s3...i wanted to return it to stock....i followed the sticky guide here on howto do so...i used odin...got the l1 .tar stock firmware...tried to load or upload it into my device...it failed...i got the error "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies and try again"...so the phones firmware original or otherwise will not boot...i tried with odin 3.04 as well as 3.07...i downloaded the l1 stock file twice in case one didnt download correctly..can any of you cool folks assist me in getting my phone working again? preferrably with the stock firmware? thanks.
added info: I tried a guide involving kies and it didnt work....my phone would not get recognised in download mode or "firmware encountered issue" mode...putting my serial and model number gave a message saying it didnt recognise it....thanks.
