Hi,
Just wondering if it's possible to debrand an S3. I'm currently on the Branded OrangeUK ROM, and would like to go to the unbranded version.
Many Thanks

[Q] Unbranded 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 Official ROM for 9305

Hi all,
New here, so please go easy. I had a search around and am a bit lost in trying to find what I am looking for.
Hoping someone may be able to help me please.
Is there a 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 unbranded ROM available for the 9305 (4G/LTE) model of the S3?
I have two GT-9305T's and want to get rid of the current the Australian Telstra ROM that's them.
Thanks in advance for your time and help.
Umm why post in the i9300 thread?? Please search before making a useless thread in the wrong forum thank you

Ausboy - look up top the directory is
"Samsung Galaxy S III I9300, I9305 > Galaxy S III General > [Q] Unbranded 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 Official ROM for 9305"
nodii - do you mean unbranded as in no service provider apps and boot screen?
This is a general thread. If your looking for ROMs look in the i9305 forum.. new users should read the rules!

From the wording of the post I imagine that he is looking for a stock Rom which makes general the place to ask. Well Q&A would have been better you have something against the OP?
And @OP check sammobiles. Com they list all stock ROMs for Samsung phones and offer downloads. Just look for the unbranded one.

Stock Rom??

For warrenty reason i'm searsing for a stobk rom for my dutch P7510. But i can't find it. Can someone help me?
Google the site called SamFirmware, from there you can download stock firmware to flash with ODIN
But again, this is Android Development forum, this thread should be posted in General or Q&A

Maybe you can use the ``Open Europe`` one in http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/
Its the second from bottom to top.
There is a Q&A Section for this. This has nothing to do with development.

As long as you're not rooted, Samsung must give you warranty

Jus try to update via Kies. Download Kies to Pc connect your phone via usb cable and whent its connected search for update. This is the easyest way. After u will be in 4.1.1 Just try this maybe helps.

Get a new S3 from a shop? It would be great if you can explain your situation in a bit more detail and someone might actually write something helpful.

[Q] Debranding question

Hi folks,
First off, I'm the noobest noob you'll have seen in a while , I swapped my iphone 4s yesterday for a galaxy s3, best decision I've made in a while tbh.
Today I rooted the phone using odin and all that, but the reason I rooted in the first place is still eluding me.
I want to debrand the phone and get rid of the boot screen and useless apps.
I've searched through the forums and internet and basically I'm just plain confused! If someone could explain to me the process or point me in the right direction I would be eternally grateful. I just don't know certain things like can I flash using filles not for XXELLA etc.
For the record:
4.1.2.
XXELLA
Vodafone (me)
O2 (unlocked phone)
Thanks in advance :laugh:
Debranding is the process of flashing a stock rom that is unbranded. You would get this from sammobile.com (BTU is uk unbranded). You would flash via odin. Guides are all in general > sticky roll-up thread

First off thank you for the reply rootSU,
I just have two questions,
1. I can flash BTU even though I have an irish O2 phone yes?
2. Am I right in assuming tge BTU file must be XXELLA?
1) Yes but you may want the irish unbranded. Check the csc sticky in general for what that is
2) no? Flash the latest.

Just as an update after following your guidance I am now the owner of a de-branded SIII.
Just as an FYI addition I found through research that the BTU file covers both the UK and Ireland and was the one that worked.
Thank you again rootSU and I can only apologise for the fact I can only thank you once per post. :good::laugh:
No worries. I don't help for "thanks"
