It's country/carrier based. Amazon has a bunch of SGS II from different countries HK, UK, and wherever else. You can flash different FW to it, doesn't matter.
Thank you...
so flashing any version.. Does it void waranty?

No, if it's Samsung's Stock rom. Yes, if it's a custom rom. That's why you buy a USB jig, so you can reset the download count so they wouldn't know anything.

[Q] Samsung galaxy ace update

Hello all!
Yesterday i managed to root and unlock my Samsung galaxy ace thanks to the help of this forum. I am a total noob at this but some how i managed to do it without any trouble everything works fine.
But now i want to upgrade to the new version of Android 2.3.4
Since my phone is now 2.3.3 i want the benefits of the new upgrade.
I am from Croatia and i am using the T-mobile network this phone was bought in Germay.
Model GT-S5830
Android version 2.3.3
Baseband version S5830XWKP7
Build : Gingerbred.XWKPT
Kernal Version [email protected]#1
My question is can i use the Kies program and just regulary update or will i lose the Unlock? And if yes what must i do that i have the newest version and keep the sim unlock.
Thank you very mutch in advanced !
You must unroot first. Next you can upgrade your rom and root them

is there a quick tut for the same example that i have? i searched the forum but no luck finding something similar. i am a total noob at this sorry
i have unrooted it but when i go to kies and check for updates it only updates my firmware but not my android version. Any advice?
untrooted it with SuperOnceClick and superuser is gone.
it is advisable to upgrade via Odin
see these threads : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1034145

Thank you very much ! I just rooted it and upgraded it to 2.3.4.
Only one question now. How do i remove the russian aps?
Root your Ace, download stock app remover ( domt really care if you bought it from market or priate it ) allow root permissions. Happy uninstalling. However do not uninstall apk files that are vital

Dude to upgrade Fw u don't need to unroot or root. if you have unlocked your phone then u must have your imei number backed up

Fw via Odin.you can download latest Fw from samfirmmware.com ......

the rom in your link is not an international i9300 rom but one for I747 at&t s3, so it is not compatible.
choose one of the i9300 forums and look in the stickies in general section, there is everything explained
Edit: sorry i was too late...
any suggestion...

GT I9300 = S3 International version
I think T-Mobile is SGH-T999
Search S3 variants
Google search "gt-i9300 (put custom rom name here)" to make sure u are correct.
