You can flash any stock firmware, if you want the latest from three or Samsung you can check and download the latest version
From Sam mobile or checkfus and flash. It with odin.

You do not need to wipe as long as you do not experience any problem (this is the way I do it ). Note however: some (rare) firmware releases are "wipe releases", i.e. they will wipe your phone automatically. Therefore be sure to make a nandroid backup before upgrading.

If you are of the idea to use the mobile for warranty, you need to reset the Flash Counter. This is a counter variable that increments on every time you use Odin to flash a custom rom.
From a Rooted Rom, Download Triangle Away application from Play Store and then Reset the Flash Counter. Later download the Official Stock Rom for your model and country and then flash it using Odin (I would suggest to do a data wipe/cachewipe/dalvik cache wipe before installing the Stock Rom)

Will I lose unlock?

Will I lose unlock if I flash a firmware from a different csc? I'm planning to flash the UK unbranded firmware and my phone came with German T-Mobile firmware.
Thanks!

Not if it came as new unlocked .
Otherwise depends upon unlock method and firmware .

Yes, you can. Chose a country with same mobile network frequencies. Factory reset after you flash.

Thank you so much....I want to ask you one thing that people say for downgrading from 4.3 firmware to 4.1.2.....you need to get a 4.1.2 firmware with mg4 baseband or higher to avoid efs and imei corruption.
So the link you gave me is mg4 baseband pda or higher? ?? I need that mg4 baseband firmware..
