[Solved] Flashing Omega Rom - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Heyho guys
Im sorry, my questions is really really nooby, but im new to Samsung devices (before i got the S3 i had an X8 and changed the kernal + rom every week^^).
I already updated my S3 via Kies...
Baseband: XXLF5
Buildnumber: XXALF6
But here is my question now:
In the Omega thread there is written "Based on firmware XXBLH3", but I guess i don't have that firmware version...
So do i have to flash that firmware build XXBLH3, or can i simply download Omega v13.1 and flash it via cmw?
greetings REtender

You are safe to flash, that version is what his room is based on.

Some questions regarding S2

Hello . First of all , excuse me for my noobish questions but i'm new to samsung and i have some elementary questions which i have not found using the search option.
My current firmware is 2.3.6 and I'm looking forward to flash it to ICS but i don't know which firmware to download . I flashed my friends phone (i9100p) to ICS and it worked but mine had a bootloop so i had to flash it back to my stock firmware (2.3.6) . Can somebody tell me what 4.x firmware is suitable for my phone because i do not know what "XWLP7" or "BVKL1" are.
Phone info:
Baseband Version : I9100BVKL1
Kernel version : 2.6.35.7-I9100BVKL1-CL774645 [email protected]#2
PDA: i9100BVKL1
Phone:I9100BKL1

get lp7 stock (sammobile.com/checkfus/http://skywanker.net/Download/download.aspx (Intratech's))

wipe your phone using *2767*3855#
flash using odin
wipe again using same code
signin to you'r gmail and have fun.
follow the aboue post ,hes right and alwayz do a factory reset an then flash ics jus to b clean

[Q] Flashing German Firmware over French Firmware.

Hey there,
i have a question for the 9100G of my Wife. I have Flashed the 4.0.3 French Version on her Device and now there is a 4.0.3 and rumors about a 4.0.4 in Germany. Can i flash the German 4.0.3 over the existing 4.0.3 French without loosing data?
Best Regards,
Bieka
If it's 4.0.3 to 4.0.3 then yes, if you just flash a pda from sammobile then you shouldn't have a problem at all just flash and all your settings/data should be there!

Ok,
thanks for reply. Having a custom Kernel and flashing an original firmware should overwrite it simply. So i will try it! If its good to know for someone i will report back after flashing!

This has been covered 26,984 times before on here. However....Flash the Odin version of Siyah compatible with the Android version you're running at the moment (search the Siyah threads on here or Gokhanmoral.com). You'll have a rooted phone + CWM.
Thanks a lot my friend. :thumbup:

I have flashed the polish 4.0.3 ics rom and all is good but when I connect to kies it says .

You have to flash to the stock rom, then it'll be unrooted like you just got it out of the box.
