hi, i flashed newest cm10 nightly and want go back to my stock because of warranty issues. but there a so many stock roms and i didn't know the one i've to pick because i don't know which firmware was originally on my phone. galaxy s iii (I9300) is from germany. which one should i pick?
thanks
Was your phone network locked if so you will need to find the latest ics build for Germany and flash via Odin and uroot if you are sending back for warranty.
If your device was unlocked you can flash the latest unbranded sw.

thanks for your answer.
i don't think that it was network locked. can you give me a link to the correct rom?
what would happen if the phone was locked and i flash the latest unbranded sw?
thx a lot
Use CHECKFUS to download the firmware and flash via Odin .
jje
All the latest stock roms are at the beginning of this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610
If your phone is network locked you will need to search elsewhere for your career specific version. These are unbranded roms just ensure you change the cschool to your correct region. Apparently it does not void warranty if you sent your device back with a stock unbranded Rom but you will be doing so at you own risk. You will also need to check that your flashcounter is set to 0 (search xda for full tutorials regarding this) all of the above is what I have found but may not be the full instructions follow so therefore please do your research first. I cannot be held responsible for anything that may go wrong. I hope I have been of some help.

My apologies that should be ''csc''. I wrote that post from my phone and did not notice that predictive text must have changed that.
If you go to http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9300 and find the last DBT release (CSC for Germany) and download that.
Please bare in mind that DBT is the unbranded csc if your device was originally carrier locked you may need to flash that for example the csc for t-mobile germany is DTM.
If you hover the mouse over each csc on this page it will tell you the country and carrier
so i think i've found the basefirmware:
GT-I9300RWDDBT
but i don't find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610

now i've a serious problem:
i flashed I9300XXDLIH I9300DBTDLI2 an odin said all is correct. now i stuck at the samsung logo in the boot process. someone an idea?
^^no one an idea? what should i do? because flashing with the toolkit only works when booted in android. or not?
Flash CF root boot to recovery .

You can either get them from samfirmware.com, or look up checkfus.
As for that thread you linked above, a lot of file hosting sites were shut down that many devs on this site use. So you'll have to be patient for them to find new hosting sites.

Again, since the hosting sites many people used to host files are shut down, a LOT of links don't work.
It sounds like you are looking for a carrier branded firmware, but you didn't mention who your carrier is. As far as I know, Cosmote is a major carrier in Romania.
If you are looking for an UNbranded firmware, you may have more luck. Those are more common, and more likely to be hosted on a site that hasn't been shut down yet.

CSC is country specific settings. You can flash that separately after you flash the whole firmware I linked above. (which is PDA: XWKI4, and PHONE: XXKI1, but CSC: ENKI1)
But you may not have to flash the CSC.
Intratech had a whole list of the CSC files in his official firmware thread, but like I said before, with multiupload being shut down, you're going to have a hard time finding files that are still hosted somewhere.

I can't answer this; I don't know. Did you flash any non-stock kernels? If you did, then your binary counter increased. You may have to use a USB jig to put the counter back to zero. (please google this if you don't know - there have been hundreds of threads on it)
If the binary counter is 1 or more, they will probably refuse warranty coverage, and will probably then charge you for any service.

This is still pretty hard for me to understand, I'm sorry.
But really, there are no guarantees either way, once you've flashed anything to your phone. The only way to absolutely guarantee warranty service is to not flash anything to your phone, and keep it away from water.
The best you can do if you've flashed anything to your phone, is to flash back to a stock firmware, reset the counter, and hope for the best.

I believe so, yes, or it will have the Cosmote logo affixed somewhere on the phone. But I don't know for sure, because I'm not in Europe, let alone Romania.
Hi guys,
Need your help.
I have an SGS2 in pakistan. Phone came from UK from orange and was unlocked here. When i try to update through kies, it freezes at "downloading upgrade components" and stays there. Waited for 2 hours without any change so decided to update through odin. My questions:
My phone detail is:
PDA-KH2/Phone-KH1/CSC:KH2(ORA)
I have downloaded the updated software KJ4(ORA) for orange from sammobile website. My questions:
1. Will be there any issue due to my location and network which is not now orange?
2. Which ODIN i should use, there is one with version 1.85 on XDA and one at sammobile with version 1.83 on sammobile?
3. Guide at sammobile for flashing says to check re partition whereas on XDA it is told not to check re partition.Who to follow.
Looking forward to your guide.
Without going into detail if your fone is a i9100P which is NFC you can flash any of the i9100 firmware but not for the M or G models ok.
You can look for a firmware for your said location and flash using 1.83 or 1.85 odin. Also you have things like modem and apn settings but others you be ok..

Your choice but i would not download firmware from one site and ask another site for instructions .Sammobile have a forum .
But neither would i check repartition or use PIT as thats an easy route to a brick .

Hello,
I have a galaxy s3 I9300 (international) running on:
AP: I9300JKALE2
CP: I9300JKLE8
CSC: I9300OJKALE6
I've rooted using CF-Root 6.4; I'd like to know how to update my firmware manually, because the Israeli carrier is really bad at releasing updates. Which version should I get? I looked over the list of firmwares but I couldn't find one for Israel.
Would I need to enter any values and settings manually once I update?
Will the new firmware override the rooting?
Basically, what version to download and what is the right way to get it on a rooted phone.
Many thanks in advance

The problem was that there is no official update for the Israeli orange-partner rom. So checking via sammobile and checkfus didn't give any results because I believe an update especially for Israel doesn't exist yet. I meant in OP which firmware would be closest and safest to flash, considering what I have now. I apologize for not being clearer.

That makes no sense at all. How can you call a car a cat? Two different things . Anyways have some respect to other members on a public forum, no one needs your political crap about Palestine/Israel its against the rules. I can call Jordan, Palestine as well but I won't. Trust me don't get into politics here, its a modding forum for Christ sakes.
Ok for the procedure there is no problem, I have already informed.
But I would ask why one should change the firmware (in my case from I9300XXALF6 ita to I9300XXBLG8 uk)?
I don't care if the language of the cell is eng or ita, but if i have the uk stock i will get the official update quick then the ita stock?
And for automatic updates with the uk stock they came alone or i have to download and install the new uk stock?
Sorry for the noob questions but I do not know where to ask
no one can help me?
I Couldn't understand your question properly but I'll try to help.
Having a UK ROM would make you get all the OTA update's quicker (as of now).
In OTA's you only need to download a small bit of the ROM and you don't have to do anything. the phone will do everything on it's own.
But you have to download the UK official ROM from sammobile.com.
Hope that helps.
ty for the answer so the version is the same (uk stock and ita stock) but i get the update quickly right?
maybe the uk modem driver is better then the ita?

They are same but if you use a UK baseband/modem there is no guarantee that everything SHOULD work.
One thing is, it'll surely not brick your phone.
Try it, but it's not recommended.
so if there are problems i can go back with the stock ita doing the same i have do for the uk stock but this time with the ita stock?

Bumping posts in a very short time space is against the rules ..
No you don't get an update quicker you might but UK has never been first for all firmware .
Firmware is changed for a number of reasons by users .
One they want the latest good or bad must have new .
Two the firmware may have some improvements .
Modem has nothing to do with the Sim card .
Modems may work well for some networks not for others .
Updates come OTA or via KIES
If you change your firmware thats the firmware update ..
If your phone works well do not change the firmware .

Yes they are related and my first statement is true modem cannot break a sim card or make a sim card not work . Wrong modem can mean no connection despite the sim card being 100% .

Hi
I have an SG3 unlocked and I rooted it. Baseband I9300XXLF5, Build IMM76D.I9300XXALF6
I haven't received any update and from Kies it show no firmware update availabel. Is it because I have a rooted device?
I checked in SamMobile but I don't understand which firmare or how I should download.

You can search firmwares by country/region.

I am also a bit confused with the number of firmware out there and wondering which is the latest. The only thing I know is the leaked JB firmware XXDLH4 > XXDLH6 and now the XXDLH7. Its easy to see which is newer but on the original firmware, so many different code and its just confusing

Regarding firmware based on region, I am from Blackberry. Its often ok or should I say OK to download firmware from other service provider as long the phone is the same model. Sometimes, your region or provider may not update their firmware so installing other provider's / region's firmware will actually be better. Some regions just seems to update their firmware much faster than others and providing improvements and fixes faster than others.

Depends on where you live, most updates get to the UK first (even leaks).
Where do you live?

Download and flash a firmware with the CSC "BTU" it is for Britain and unbranded and gets updates first.

Odin Flash FAILS with ITV file (lates Italian firmware). I use md5 file on CSC via Odin.
I will try using the Britain file.
Now that I am rooted of I need to update when JB comes out do I need to unroot?
The unroot process I've seen on YouTube imply a total wipe of the phone. A real hassle.
Any alternative?
Firmware is PDA not CSC.
Dev section Chainfires CF Root no wipe.
