Yes you can .

Yes you can. Download the latest ROM from sammobile for UK.
Don't forget to factory reset and clear cache/dalvik cache before and after flashing the ROM, otherwise you will have fresh ROM with those stupid icons from Vodafone.

Sup people.
Currently my phone is BRANDED to o2 ( o2 logo boots up)
is it possible to flash the phone with a unbranded stock firmware at all?
Can this be done via heimdall or does it need to be done with odin?
Thanks

Hi,
Sorry if this has been posted before i am a bit of noob on android.
I have got myself Galaxy S3 locked to Three network i have looked all over the forums but managed to confuse myself
I want to debrand and root my phone but i don't know what to do first do i root before flashing stock to the phone or flash with stock first then root.I really don't want to brick it lol.
I would like to open it for all networks also.
P.S Im in UK model number GT-I9300
Thank you

First u have to flash the debranded firmware you want with Odin theN do a cf root then after u have rooted you can go to play store and download voodoo galaxy s III sim unlock
If I helped say thanks
Hi
Thanks for the quick reply.
So do i just flash the stock rom for the uk straight to my phone using odin3 v1.85?
will it wipe everything from my phone once i do this contacts etc..
Stock rom does not wipe .
Root will be wiped if you flash stock rom after root so in your case stock followed by root .

Thanks for the help guys.
I managed to get their in the end.
what did you do in the end ? I want to do the same and remove the Vodafone branded firmware off my S3 and just add stock firmware on..
Cheers
Go to samfirmware.com and flash your Rom of choice through Odin.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

can the phone SIM lock after flashing?
Does i9305 need to be rooted before flashing official firmware of another region using Odin? I've been searching for answer for a while but still can't find a definite answer. In my case, I want to flash Hong Kong official firmware onto i9305 bought from T-Mobile UK. Thanks
No, you don't need to be rooted to use Odin
FYI Odin is a leaked Samsung firmware flash tool.
Just make sure you are flashing a compatible firmware designed for your model
Thanks, Will Odin (flashing official firmware of different compatible region) trigger flash count? I don't want to lose my warrenty.

AFAIK yes.
Download unbranded firmware for your region and flash it with Odin on PC via USB cable. If you flash the CSC file (not Home_CSC, your data will be wiped.
So backup everything you do not want to lose.
