Hardbrick bug concerned only 4.0.4 firmware, so you should be safe on 4.1.2.
You can always check your chip with this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.vinagre.android.emmc_check It will tell you whether you got safe chip or not. But as I said, on 4.1.2 you are safe anyway.

Hi, I need to get my phone back to vendor as I have some hardware problems (audio jack is dead).
How could I get back to stock ? No root, no CWM.
Thx

Great ! Thx very much. So, flashing stock firmware will replace CWM too ?
Read the cwm thread it tells you how to unroot

Great! Glad it all worked out.
Hi!
There is, in some thread on a french forum, SGS3 owner having sound problem during calls (can not hear caller).
Someone has it been confronted with this problem? Have ideas to solve this one?
Factory reset nor flash resolve it....
Is this hardware trouble?
(when listening mp3, all goes right: speaker, headphone...but none sound during calls)
Thank you for answer/ideas...!
Had the same problem until the xxalf2. European update ...now it's ok ...

don't know due to the fact I use a custom based xalf2 rom but for me the problem is solved anyway and I didn't see changelog about it. I imagine the problem has been solved with the xalf2 official rom on sammyfirmware which are stocked rom if I remember ...
OK, thank you for your help...

Yes but you must perform a factory data reset when flashing the Rom. So, backup your important data.
Yeah sure, i always do, thank you!

Hi!
First, I introduce me to you, I'm glad to be registered here cause you make very good job for phones users. I heard talk about you on galaxys2.fr.
So, for the first time, I flash and root my GS2, now I run with 7comp which looks to be sympathic, but yesterday, I made first walk in settings, I don't think I made troubles, but since this time, I can't receive my SFR signal. I tried to find where can be the problem, nothing! Somebody could help me please?
Thanks a lot!

Welcome, buddy.
First time that I heard about "7comp" but looks cool, too...
I would recommend to flash another kernel. (please check which version u are and what is compatible to this (with Mali driver or not etc))
Over this have a look in issues list, if it isn't reported yet. (http://code.google.com/p/samsung-gs2-7comp-rom/issues/list)
Much success
CHEERS
Ok. Thanks a lot for quick answers. You re allé very nice. I m going to look for another kernel. Hope Will be good solution.
I tell it to you after.

the kernel is more off related to wifi ma8, since ur not able to recive ur SFR signal is due to an in-compatable Modem/baseband, which u have to change and see, link below for the same.
they r CWM flashable zip files that can be flashed thro recovery just like a custom rom, try a cpl of them and see which one will give u better signal
Modem Collection
Ok. Thanks. But what i don t understand ils that sfr signal was received correctly before few jours. And lost without changing anything in connexion settings... should i just reflash 7comp rom?

try a different modem from the link first and see, if still issue persists then reflash the rom and see
I think there s no compatible modem in thé liste. I m on lpw. Before i was on lq6. But 7comp flash turned phone on lpw. Si, maybe i ll fond one for lpw on Google.

there is no need for any compatability with ur exsisting one ma8, just try XXLPS or XXLPX and see
also install 'Getrill' app from stores and match the RIL with ur baseband/modem and then check for signal issue
Really sorry. I m not expert. Lol. What s ma8?

Why do you want to flash a Bootloader ????
jje
Because i have the android version i9300XXELLA on a S3 32go and i'd like to change for a non blocked bootloader as XXEMB5 or XXEMC2 ... is it possible without a pc with mobile odin please ?

no

No pc, no bootloader flash ...

Mobile Odin has some limitations compared to Odin as it runs inside android. It can only access partitions that are visible from android, and bootloader is not one of those.
That's why you must use Odin.
Thank you very much for your answer ...

This on the other hand means if i flash a Stock-FW (for example XXEMC2) with Mobile Odin but have an older bootloader (from XXDLIH FW): I will have the new Kernel etc. (with SD-Fix) but remain on my good old bootloader???
yes. there's no official confirmation whether or not the bootloader or kernel contains the fix

That was not the question, but thanks
And if i interpret the "yes" right it means i can flash the new stockrom with Mobile Odin and it wont change my bootloader.... *happy*
correct
