Different firmware will not brick your phone..you can use any firmware from any region but the only backside is you will have different CSC hence you might not get CSC specific applications..
Whats csc?

No need to dump just download it from below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113928
then just root it using CF-root from below using the XENKJ3 file, which you can then place original FW on SD card and flash back at anytime using cwm
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
or just flash a custom rom using odin or once rooted using cwm
Once rooted you just delete all the crap you don't want off the phone.

I bought my phone off of ebay which already had a custom rom installed. I asked the seller and he said hes not sure. Now I want to go back to stock samsung firmware but I don't know which stock firmware I should download. Can someone help? thanks
Is there a Stock firmware I can download for my phone and make it 100% stock? If so, how do I know which one that is? Thanks.
Read the guides and faqs before you brick your phone .
Stock firmware is here you do not know what the origin of your phone is then neither does anybody else .

So since I don't know what region my phone is from, can I flash any of the firmwares listed in that link? My i9100 is international version because it has the physical home button. please tell me I don't want to brick my phone by downloading the wrong region firmware. thanks.
Yes any version providing it is a i9100 not i9100G or some other model .

What is your intension to going back to Stock? since you have no warantee issue..
enjoy any of the stable custom rom...
also you can check region wise firmwares releases here www.sammobile.com
You wont brick your phone by downloading the wrong region ROM. You can put any version from any country only if your phone model is I9100 and not I9100G or any of the AT&T or T-Mo ****!
Just go to about phone and see the build number and kernel and all, you'll probably find the rom and kernel.
Thank you, you two (JJEgam and frankimm) are the only ones that actually answered my question. Thanks again!

Mine also says unknown after flashing the UK firmware. I've tried flashing the CSC file, but it still shows as being unknown.
I'm also unable to access the CSC selector, after entering *#272*IMEI# I get a message -
"Connection problem or invalid MMI code"
Try sgs1/2 csc changer from play store
I've flashed stock UK unbranded mine csc is fine try flash again

i've tried 2 different CSC changers, CSC Select and SGS CSC, both dont work. Its not a major issue for me, as long as it isnt causinga problem with something i dont know about. My phone originally had the Hong Kong CSC (i bought it online), so whetehr this is causing the problem, i dont know

Hello,
I'm asking this here because it looks like you guys might be able to help me understand how CSC work.
I'm trying to understand why I'm not getting the UK Jellybean update, bought my Galaxy s3 phone from Amazon it said UK unlocked.
Here's what my phone "About device" says
Model: GT-9300
Version:4.0.4
Baseband version:i9300XXLF2
Build number:IMM76D.I9300XXALF2
When I run *#1234#
it gives
AP: I9300XXALF2
CP:I9300XXLF2
CSC:I9300OJVALF2
Now from what I've read and looking here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610
this would indicate a stock official firmware apart from the CSC
As I understand it the above CSC mean my phone is OJV, while to get the UK update I have to have CSC BTU.
I've tried the CSC selector software but BTU doesn't appear and the phone appears to be set on MWD (this is also what KIES shows)
Can anyone help me untangle and understand this.
Thanks.

Hi. Your phone has African firmware with a multi CSC. There is no Official release yet for Africa. Thats why you are not getting updates. You have 2 options.......1: To wait for the official update for your firmware 2: to download XXDLJ4 and flash it with odin. You will have exactly same result whichever option you choose.
Cheers
CSC problem
Hello.
I have a problem with changing the CSC of my phone. My phone is a branded i9300 with the stock CSC: ORO. I've flashed I9300XXDLJ4 and my CSC became unknown. Then i tried to flash only the BTU CSC but with the same result: CSC unknown. Also i downloaded the CSC select app but it gives me this error : "process com.android.phone has stopped". also i've wiped data and cache before and after flashing the rom. Do you guys have a solution for my problem or if a have a branded phone i cannot change my CSC?
When I enter in recovery mode it always says something like "Manual MODE. Applied Multi CSC. Applied CSC ORO".
Thanks

It happens when the cache.img (it has the CSC files) is not flashed properly when you are using Odin.... if the flashing process gets interrupted due to a reboot ..you will have to flash the firmware again after a full wipe..

Thank you for the quick answer. A full wipe u mean wipe data and cache from recovery mode?

Yes, thank you, I've now realised this. I bought the phone on Amazon where it was described as UK unlocked. Obviously this wasn't entirely accurate..
I'm new to this so I'm going to wait a little longer in case the official update is released shortly while I do some more reading.
If I wanted to go the second root, just out of interest, how did you know to suggest XXDLJ4 as the ROM I need to flash, there seem to be so many out there. Sorry if this is a total noob question.
Thanks.
Simple method is to use CHECKFUS to download any current firmware and flash via ODIN .

use Kies to restore original firmware and update via Kies .

Not 100% sure if above will actually change your CSC as i never use Kies and never use a CSC .
Or ignore KOR
Or root phone .

Hi! My original firmware was a romanian version (ROM) but I wanted to try something different so I flashed the UK firmware (XEU). The differences between these 2 aren't noticeable so I tried to flash ROM firmware back but it doesn't seems to work since Samsung phone info shows me Portugal as CSC country and TPH CSC code. What is the problem in this case and how could I fix it? Thanks!

I've tried to restore original firmware using smartswitch but still got portuguese version. I've also tried to flash ROM using Odin but it didn't worked either.
I'm pretty sure there's other ppl facing the same issue
