ok so im grabbing this one, no turning back...

Firmware will need to be updated but it seems to be the one for international S3 in Israel
So it should be a GT-I9300 and not a GT-I9300T
To be sure (and if you can do it...): remove back of the phone and battery and look what is written on the sticker

The sticker say GT-I9300 and not GT-I9300T so your good!
But there is no differences between the GT-I9300 and GT-I9300T except the modem (that could have been easily replaced with a rom flash) so it does not really matter...

i shall try the btu one.. the baseband etc seems the same so with any luck it will be ok.. my charging port is dodgy thats why i need it back..

Some of the first phones that orange released did have the update option, but that was soon removed.
If you want to be 100% sure the just flash LH2 from Sam mobile then you will be fine .

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.

Oh didnt know that. That blows completely but maybe the op knew that it was from knock off. I have seen those websites and some look pretty convincing but you can see a difference.
I was actually looking to buy the Goo-iphone with the tegra 3 and it looked great.
But 250 was more than I wanted to pay

RIL and modem problem! I9300 with Cyanogenmod 10.2 Stable!

Hello there! I have a i9300 with CM 10.2. Works really nice! I also have TWRP. I looked everywhere for a compatible modem and RIL set because original set (that came with the phone and was modified by CM) doesn't show my signal strength corectly (it is a HUGE number). I'm looking for an unbranded, Europe modem. Also, thanks for reading my first post!

I think you are new to here.. would be better to read Faqs and Guides First to Know about your device and do rest of the things else you will mess up with it..
As far as I know, you should flash a modem without Ril because Cm have his own, or you will end up with a No Signal..
I have flashed ROMs on my Samsung Galaxy S since 1 year so I know some stuff. I never worked with modems and RILs. I knew CM has it' s own RIL but I thought maybe it would work with other RILs too. My modem is XXLF5. Also, the modem you have is umbraded? Because my phone isn't bought from Orange, it's unbranded by default.
By the way, thanks for giving me tips! Much appreciated!

I have flashed BUEMC2 modem(no Ril) with cm 10.2 and it's all OK for me even if the Ril don't match with the modem, but I'm from Italy with Vodafone carrier.. Here is a list of modem+Ril for the i9300 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2076857
if you want only the modem, delete the System folder that is in the zip file.

I'll look for a modem that suits my needs and post back the result! Thanks!
Edit: If I install a branded modem onto an unbranded device what will happen?
Edit 2: I installed BVELK1 branded to Orange (even if the phone is normally unbranded by default) and works fine! I'll keep testing and I'll decide if I keep this one or resume my search. Thanks a lot!

From what I've read, Modem are related to your SIM card carrier and country .. In fact my phone was branded Tim, but my modem is for Vodafone / Europe , matching my actual carrier and works very well..

Hey
I had the same problem with the high dBm values after installing another modem/RIL
around 1200dBm for weak signal strength und ca. 1900dBm for good signal.
After reinstalling the RIL that came with CM10.2 everything worked fine (I made a Nandroid-backup)
The RIL is just the files in /system/lib/
libril.so
libsec-ril.so
right?
if yes => i could upload it (but I'm not shure if this will break any certificates)

the rom in your link is not an international i9300 rom but one for I747 at&t s3, so it is not compatible.
choose one of the i9300 forums and look in the stickies in general section, there is everything explained
Edit: sorry i was too late...
