What country is SG by the way, Singapore? Coming back to the topic, yes. You need to flash a firmware for that specific country and change the CSC to the one that corresponds to that country.

Hi 2 ALL,
I purchased my i9100 couple day's ago and found that phone is from some network in Hungary. I think it's from T-Mobile becouse there is some ringtones with that name.
My question is, will I be able to update my phone with any firmware from ur site an have simfree phone since I'm not on t-mobile network, or my phone will lock again and I'll newer be able to use it again....
Yes, as long as it's a I9100 and not a I9100 variant

are there separate modem downloads for the S3? I can't seem to find a link similar to the S2 thread before.

[Q] Flash counter and replacing the phone

I think my phone has a problem so I'm planning to take it back to the place where i bought and get it replaced (as it's only been like a week)
However i rooted my phone, so i was planning to use triangle away to remove this, but it says i need to reflash with the stock firmware to be perfect, but the stock firmware for my region did not come out yet.
What should i do?
Please give me some help

Hey I'm Australian and own an S3.. I'm sick of Vodafone update strategy.. I want to root, what do you think?
Sent from my GT-I9300T using Tapatalk 2
Ye root it, i rooted it too, except i think i need a replacement cause my phone has a problem.
Rooting could do lots of stuff.
If you ain't that good with computers and you don't want to stress yourself finding stuffs and working on it, don't do it cause it can risk your phone and might not brick.
Otherwise it's great to root
I've had the GNex.. I just hope it's as easy. Vodafone seriously piss me off..
I think Im Gonna root it.. just regret I didn't do that the moment I got it.. cause I seriously can't be stuffed going through the whole set up process again..

Why root it has nothing to do with updates or stock roms .

Would I be able to flash the latest original firmware without root?

lol
well actually looking at your statistics i think you know well
hahaha
SGS3 doesn't really need root, as it is already good enough
but can make it better with root i think
yes

flashing is just to do with odin...so
if you get the firmware file and use odin
no need of rooting
Ohhh okay cool.. do you know any links that can help me flash the unbranded ROM for the S3 and if I flash that Rom.. would I still be able to receive OTA updates?

I'm not sure about the OTA update, as it's generally released by Samsung or the carrier...so

You can also download latest Official Firmwares from http://samfirmware.com
Sent from my MB525 using Tapatalk 2
Yes. But you'll be able to do so with root too...
Many people confuse the two, so just to clarify:
Rooting means having a tiny modification in the phone's operating system so it doesn't restrict you from superuser commands.This will not affect your installed data or ability to upgrade.
Custom Roms is replacing the stock rom with a new operating system package someone else built which may or may not largely differ from Samsung's own version.

I just want an official non branded ROM .so I can get the latest updates without carrier delays .
Sent from my GT-I9300T using Tapatalk 2
There are always delays, whether carrier-, region-, or whatever-related.
You can flash the newer Rom's through Odin tough (again: the flashcounter does not increase with original ROM's) to get it as soon as the file is released.
Unbranded S1's had to wait several months for Froyo update over here...
Where can I find the latest official firmware?
Also since I'm in Australia.. does it matter what region firmware I update to? Say.. can I update to an European based firmware?

This shows Singapore using XX as well, I may be completely wrong because I'm still fairly new to this..
