Hello and sorry ahead if its a copy I couldn't find the info I was looking for by searching the site,so here it is
I'm currently running i9100XXLF2

Are you running I9100XXLF2 or I9300XXLF2? If you're asking for flashing Polish jb rom on your S2 then you're definitely going to break it!
If you have international S3 i.e. GT-I9300 then flashing polish version won't break your device. But since you're confused about it that's why I'd advise you to wait for a week or so because Samsung has started rolling out JB updates and your country might get it soon.

Its GT-I9300XXLF2 thanks for the info ill wait then because I want it to be the official samsung update

so far as your SGS3 is international you can use Poland version, i've been use it, i'm from indonesia and my SGS3 flashed by poland version, all looks good, but i don't know why the stock music player doesn't recognize my music folder on external SDCard.

I had similar problem with nightly on sgs2 I did reset to the phone and it worked good afterwards try many regarding the music to the phone and let the player find them again
First try recopying then reset depends on u
Hope it helps

This isn't authentic by any means. The Bangladesh firmware is modified to an Indian one
I'm not too happy with LPQ firmware anyways.. Reverted back to gb la4 firmware..
Thanx guys for the replies.
I mean the KIES version?
Anyone has that?

Hello Mr.impatient
Indian official ICS will be released this week in Kies.So just wait 1-2 more days.
I will not comment about that Indian ICS which is already here in some thread.
Indian official ICS release will not come through OTA.
It will be only through Kies.

Unless, of course, you are an I9100G user. (Of which there was at least one posting in this thread.)
No offense, sahibunlimited... just want to be clear.

I am just a little skeptic about using Odin (scared rather). And now that I'm on 2.3.6, zergRush exploit doesn't work due to which I'm unable to root. Hence waiting for the update through Kies.

Odin is safer than Kies in my opinion.
You can TRY the "memory crash" method when using zergRush. Just open a ton of apps and exit using the Home button instead of Back to fill up as much memory as possible (at least over 500 mb used), then use zergRush.
I don't know if it will work for you or not, but it's worth a shot.
If not, just flash a kernel that roots for you, like CF-Root or Siyah.
How the hell does it matter when you get the update.
Its the same Samsung ****!
Id say stay on GB or use CM9!
But then again thats what i think.

official update blocked

Hello,
i have 2 phones S3.
Today i got a message on both to download the official update firmware.
The first S3 the download process was broken due to server connection problem. The update was not downloaded and not installed. Now if i try to check for update i found no update avaiable...
The second S3 was updated successfull and i have a different firmware version.
How can i unblock first S3 to get official update ?

(Q)Lates official ICS firmware..

Hello fellow s3 peeps.. I got a buddy who has me do all his rooting and flashing because he is still learning. I have a u.s tmobile s3 so im not as familiar with the international roms. I flashed a rom on his gti9300 (arhd ics) but hes having some freezing issues now so he wants to try something else.. what I wanted to know is what's the latest ICS firmware called .. no leaks just the latest official one.. we live in the u.s. idk if that has anything to do with it. Also any rom recommendations will be appreciated.

[Q] installing official JB release

Hi, i saw the official release for JB here http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s3-i9300-android-4-1-1-jelly-bean-official-upgrade-118073/
This is the actually official release right?
Also do i have to follow their guide or can i just flash it like i would any other custom ROM? Is a full wipe necessary? (i use full wipe script from android revolution HD on mike1986 post)
Btw is there a way to do full wipe manually on the recovery page?
Yeah its official jelly bean, follow everything they say down to the last detail, also....make sure you have the international variant of the S3 because inevitably, you WILL brick your device if you flash it on any other device other than the international (quad core, GSM) version, good luck

sorry for a lame question, but how do i know if my SGS3 is international version? I bought it from ebay, which arrived from Hong Kong, however I think it is a european version (France??), I don't remember how i found that out last time. I am on a custom ICS ROM.

Odin recognizes tar files only AFAIK...if you have a zip file...extract the contents ..it will have a tar.md5 file inside it..

Re above .
Wipe phone and apply your original firmware .
Bit pointless flashing a JB rom only to remove it why not make up your mind what you want.Official Updates via Kies and OTA when they are released for your phone .
Or join XDA and flash stock roms on release . You cannot have both .

I flashed my s2 with an ics Rom from here and it also upgraded through kies and would thought this would have as its the official polish release

Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Force update is thru kies. You just have to wait it out if you dont have a pc. There is no schedule published. so no point guessing on update. Just keep checking in settings>about device> system update
Thats y i started this thread.... to know when ota update is going to hit india.... and iam pointing out samsung for their poor customer service
