I came across a site a few months back that I was able to download the stock firmware and os to my phone from. I have lost the link anyoone know of this site? It was free it had samung in the name I though... cant be sure. But is was really easy and the stuff was real no bs site or downloader site. it was a website that had all the different phones listed... really nice.. If anyone can help me find this it would be great!

Cheers to be honest i'm not very good with forums, really need to sort it out lol
Quick question, how do i tell which version i need to go back to?
All i did to my phone once i got it was root it usin odin and supeoneclick. Downloaded was described i believe as an insecure version of samsungs generic rom named XWKDD?
Need to un-root my phone and get it back into a state where they won't know i ever did anything to the software lol
Hi guys i recently updated my Gs2 through kies to the Ics firmware but i really don't like it much and i wanted to flash back the Gingerbread 2.3.5 that was on the phone before but all links that i have found so far with the firmware and kernel seem to be down so can someone provide me with new links?. Thanks in advance.

The link for SAM (Peru) in Intratech's official firmware thread is not multiload, and works.
Alternatively, you can probably find any firmware you want on samfirmware.com, or checkfus.
Does the type of firmware really matter? or will getting the Peru one make a difference in the phone, my phone uses the TTT version so i wanted to get that back, my apologies if i just asked a noobish question but this is my first time at this sort of thing. and also the Sam (peru) link isn't working either.

I honestly don't know what difference there is. Probably just the CSCs, (Country Specific Codes) which may or may not matter for you. Will probably make it so Kies doesn't recognize your phone for update. If you don't use Kies, it probably won't matter. But if you want the TTT version specifically, then, again:

EDIT: sorry, the link on Intratech's thread used to work. I guess it doesn't anymore. However, again, see above quote for alternatives.
Ok i found one on Samfirmware, will try it out, and thanks for the help so far.
I am looking for the stock 2.3.4 GB ROM for the SGS2. I found a link on the forum that went to a depositfile site but the file is no longer there (and the same link is posted around the internet). It's an unlocked phone so either c alean stock ROM or and Orange UK branded one would do. I would really appreciate if some cane can get a working download link. I

He should,as thats what Im using.....and where I got it from lol.
Having trouble finding stock roms, can anyone point me in the right direction of where I can find what Im looking for?? Those that I have found are eiter hosted by hotfile, which has been taken down or on the Sammobile and Terafile which unless you are a premium memeber, the download times are horrendous. Im looking for unbranded roms. Not looking to root and install custom roms at this time. Thanks in advance guys, any help with this will be be very much appreciated
Also looking for this
I have a galaxy s3 I9300 which since I did a factory reset now sticks on the Samsung logo however I can boot into recovery and into download (the phone was rooted before I did factory reset but I am not bothered about preserving root as I just want to sell it) All I want to do it install a standard samsung stock rom. In download mode Odin 3.07 sees the device so I presume that I cold flash the stock rom from there IF I could find one - the damn us government has taken down hotfiles and like the OP I can only find premium sources. As I say I dont mind if the rom is rooted or not just as long as it returns the phone to working order - I dont have any data to worry about

The problem here is that I cannot get into the phone to check the firmware! It is an unlocked UK version of GT-i9300 and someone suggested "BTU" was the right one but this isn't listed on the site you gave - at least not with BTU in the name - there are so many listed and none with even any indication of country
I clicked download on the most likely one which is I9300XXUGMJ9_I9300OXAGMJ9_BTU.zip - I didnt see BTU until I got to the download step - is this likely to be a UK unlocked one or would I be taking a risk installing it?
anyone can post official GB firmware + root (2.3.3 to 2.3.6)..cant seems to find it google and xda..all the links are dead even samfirmware..please help would be appreciated
Firmware; if Samfirmware, AndroidFirmwares.net or Samsung-Updates.com don't have what you need, you're either out of luck or you'll need to use something else.
re: rooting this phone - search. This phone was released almost 3 yrs ago, and it would take you ten lifetimes to read every instance of this question being asked & answered on this site during this time. You've been here more than long enough to know this.

anyone wiling to provide link for Gb..help would be appreciated...
Try another internet connection (work/school/internet cafe/whatever) or you'll need to use another firmware, the chances of someone reading your thread who has that firmware is very remote. Why not upgrade to stock ICS or JB & then root ?
