  1. Thanks worked great!!! Do you know of a way to get CWM or TWRP working? I can’t flash a new rom until I get a new recovery on my phone. I have the sgh-i337 OTA MF3 model

    • Same here. I tried this and it is giving me the same problems. I think AT&T with Samsung has put updates in our phones to make sure we do not root. DO NOT EVER BUY PHONES FROM AT&T

  2. Wow I thought my suffering has ended but my phone sgh-i337 is running firmware UCUFMLD. Please if you get something for this any moment I will thank you forever. I was rooted for my previous 4.2 2 but Kitkat 4.4.2 killed me. Thanks
