100% STOCK UNROOTED CWM RECOVERY BACKUP
Virgin Mobile Samsung Galaxy S3 Build MD7

This is a zipped archive of a backup made with ClockworkMod Recovery.
The backup was made before the phone even booted up so this is a complete right out of the box backup of the stock rom which also means it does not contain the MobileID that Virgin Mobile likes to download at first boot. So you have a chance at cancelling that
This is unrooted.
This does not include the modem. If you need the stock modem it can be found here: http://androidforums.com/virgin-mob...849-updated-op-vm-sgs3-stock-radio-fixed.html

INSTRUCTIONS:
Extract the contents of this zip onto your SDcard and restore with ClockworkMod Recovery. This is not a flashable zip

100% STOCK UNROOTED ROM FLASHABLE ZIP
Virgin Mobile Samsung Galaxy S3 BUILD MD7

This is a flashable zip of the Virgin Mobile Galaxy S3 stock ROM. This was made by punkmaxx using the above backup. The backup used to make this zip was made before the phone even booted up so this is a complete right out of the box backup of the stock rom which also means it does not contain the MobileID that Virgin Mobile likes to download at first boot. So you have a chance at cancelling that
This is unrooted.
This does not include the modem. If you need the stock modem it can be found here: http://androidforums.com/virgin-mob...849-updated-op-vm-sgs3-stock-radio-fixed.html

INSTRUCTIONS:
Download the ZIP and save it to your SD card (internal or external) and install the ZIP with your custom recovery (CWM or TWRP). Enjoy a fresh bone stock rom!

That would be pretty awesome.. and useful.

From what I understand, a CWM backup does not include the modem correct?

 

That would be fantastic! Thanks

We do have a working flashable modem right?

 

Sweet! Pm me the link and I'll add to the OP or if you wanna make your own thread that is cool too

 

updated OP

 

I'm not sure if I understand what you are asking. The links are in the first post for the flashable stock rom. There is also a link for the modem if you need that.

What are you looking for specifically? A TAR file?

 

It's in the first post Enjoy

 

If it's a tar file, you will need to use Odin.

 

You could possibly put the phone into airplane mode to prevent the download and then root the phone and freeze or delete it.

 

I will go ahead and sticky this and I'll also try to add the stock recovery later tonight and detailed instructions on how to install that as well.

 

Can anyone please link me to a stock recovery that has been confirmed working by any of you guys? I'll add it to the op and make this a "return to stock" thread.
