Hi
ive been reading the various threads in regards to rooting and flashing kernal i get my phone monday so will be looking to root it. However if in the event i need to flash it back to stock i was looking through the stock kernals / roms for tmobile-uk but unforuntly could not find it i could only see vodaphone uk and generic.

WHICH ROM there are sooooo many help me out .....
First you need to decide whether you want to stay with stock roms or custom roms.
Each has its advandages and disadvanges but mostly it is the users preference.
I want Stock def.... there are so many ...
well they the latest and I don't have any problems with it is.
frankenstein KH3 in intratech thread attached. you may want to flash the csc for three which I believe is included.

I got a new S2. Its GSM from Germany. I tried to flash an ICS Theme. But now i got bootloops. I tried to Wipe everything but it doesnt work. I am able to use Odin or Kies. Can somone help me to bring it back to where it was original. without any theme and no root? i got Odin and Kies installed. Where do i get Stock Rom for 1und1 Germany or Stock German rom and how do i install it?
which is the right firmware to download. i dont get it which one is the right one and which one is the newest to use for german language
i got these information from my rom XXKI4, KJ1
Get carrier-specific firmware here or if your carrier isn't listed in that thread get country-specific firmware here. You could also use Checkfus (do a search on here) to get the latest firmware available for your carrier that you'd normally get via Kies.
thanks a lot, but i dont know which one of the country specific is the newest and right one for me. Can you help me out?
Looks like there's only one available in Intratech's official carrier firmware thread for O2 Germany (XWKI1), Checkfus says KI8 is available for O2 Germany (Dated: 22/11/11) assuming you have a I9100 (check the sticker under your battery to make doubly sure.
I don't know which one is more recent as Intra's firmwares don't have dates on them, but I'm guessing the KI8 available thru Checkfus is more recent as this would also be available via Kies. I don't think it will make a great deal of difference which one you use at the end of the day given you don't seem to know which firmware you had on your phone originally. Either will work just fine with your phone I would imagine, provided you definitely have a I9100 or I9100T
Up to you which one you use.

thanks a lot for your answers. i just flashed a custom rom andy everything is good
Hi everyone, I got a international s3 or European I just know it's not from my carrier directly. My question is will I be getting software updates according to my carrier/country or will I be receiving the updates the time it comes out in Europe? I'm asking because I updated to 4.2.1 about 2 months earlier than my friend did and he bought it straight from Vodafone NZ
Official 4.2.1?
I think it depends on your Carrier
You will be getting updates when they come out in Europe. Updates are actually pushed through according to your phone CSC as you have an international unbranded phone unlike your friend's Vodafone branded unit.

oh darn it lol i reflashed stock with the Vodafone NZ 4.2.1 rom not the International UK rom.. can someone point out the steps to reflash stock rom if my s3 is already on stock rom? cheers
Oh by the way, is there any difference to the software updates between countries apart from them being released at different times? I was on International UK rom but I flashed NZ stock rom and now its seems im having quite a bit of battery problems, just wondering so I know whther to reflash international stock or leave it with NZ
so is it 4.2.1 or 4.1.2?

I found heaps of guides but they only guide on how to go back stock from a custom rom. Im already on stock rom though and i want to revert back to international stock rom but NZ stock.
Soz im a noob, still new to this
it is no different
So which is true? Does software updates follow the carrier the phone is using (eg. Vodafone) or the region (eg UK/EU)??

Hey, I have been trying to return to stock, I've downloaded ODIN, but when came the time to pick a stock rom, I saw that there were quite a few stock roms for my phone (GT-19300 international) . I live in France, there are 4 operators: Orange (where I bought my phone and where I have my contract), Bouygues, SFR and NRJ, on Sammobile I saw there was a stock rom for NRJ, and I also found stock roms for the other operators (not on sammobile though, on tha site there was only the NRJ one), then came the question, do I need an orange stock rom, or the regular international one, does it matter? If it's any help, there isn't the orange logo on my phone, and I don't recall having orange apps on my phone when I bought it, but have a vague memory of me downloading a couple, although maybe anyone with a contract there can download them, I qish I could provide more information but nothing comes to mind :/ I'll try to answer all questions as best I can, thanks for answering quickly.
P.S. I'm using this guide to unroot, if you can think of a better one or if there's a problem with this one, I'd appreciate all suggestions, thanks! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27407556
AnyI9300 rom on any I9300 phone .
Stock is just Samsung firmware usually by country basis .
Vendor roms are usually branded and may have addons from the network . Vendor roms will have the correct modem and CSC .
