I just got a new phone, my mom bought it for me with the money we had saved and she hasn't even paid it whole yet.
I rooted it fine, but then I tried flashing CM10 on it, everything went smoothly but then it got stuck on the CM startup/splash screen or whatever it's called... when I turn it off it automatically reboots and the same thing happens.
it was locked to a carrier, that was probably what screwed it up... I don't know what to do...
if you need any info, please ask. I might know it.
please help :/

Are you sure you have an international GS3?
THANK GOD. I found a stock rom and flashed it and everything wen't back to normal.
and yes, 100% sure it's the 9300, XXBLFB
now there's another problem, it's the stock 4.0.4 rom, and I clicked to update because I want Jelly Bean on it, but it says no updates available? what does that mean? can I flash a 4.1 stock rom over it? and where can I find it, I've been looking with no luck...

did u ever get the JellyBean update to work? I have the tmo S3 and was able to update via Samsungs kies software. However, in sep I had an ATT Galaxy Note and an international factory unlocked Note around for a bit, and the ATT version was supported in Samsung Kies for the ICS upgrade, but the international was not. I believe ICS had to be flashed in the end. I just thought I'd let u know what happened for me, hope it helps. Good luck

can I install any one of those 4.1.1 roms on my branded locked I9300XXBLFB?
do I need to do anything before or just use odin to flash it?
Greetings!
My mom has a Galaxy S2 which has some rebooting problems (it randomly reboots once or twice a day, and loses a lot of battery as a result?). I am thinking this is because there is a firmware problem (although it could be hardware too).
I wanna try and flash the international samsung firmware on the phone instead of the 3 Denmark (Three) branded one I currently have on, and see if that resolves the problem. I am not sure if I have the right branded firmware either, since I tried to edit the build.prop file when I left and managed to get my device stuck on a bootloop while I was on a 12 hour plane ride (now without music lol), and I flashed the only 3 branded firmware I could find.
So, can I turn this into an "international version"? And why do you think it reboots?
Hi, I don't know about rebooting but your mom phone(battery) has insane fuel gauge chip(everyone has it) that chip takes battery level ... sometimes it adds battery level.
Maybe try to flash xxlsj jb leak ?
Regards,
Paulius
Spoiler
XDA the best
P.S. Correct me if I am wrong
Yes, you can. About the reboots, see if the international firmware helps.
Attached is a picture of how I lose battery, can someone give me a link to the international firmware version? Maybe not the most new one so I can install it and have an OTA update so I know that works. All the CSC codes and stuff makes me confused.
Do you think this is a software or hardware problem?
Also, how strict is Samsung about rooted devices and RMA?
Thank you very much!

here you go.
I've flashed this ROM and still have the fuel gauge issue, It goes up sometimes when I unplug my device
Still, great batt life.

Thank you, but I did not want the "beta" build, I wanted the international ICS build (hopefully the one "before" the latest one, so I could OTA to the latest one to make sure that worked)

This is not that beta.
I was on ICS, tried JB leak and trust me, I'm never going back to that ROM.
Anyways, It's your choice, I just layed it out there for you.
Can I flash it via the stock recovery? Can I revert to ICS or does it patch like bootloader and recovery too?

JB? try Odin.
You can always go back to ICS if you want to.
In all honesty I really just want a firmware version I can flash via stock recovery then update via OTA or KIES. This is my moms phone, I will play around with custom roms and beta releases on my Nexus 4 when it's done being repaired
Actually the major reason is that I do not wanna flash another bootloader and stuff like that if I have to deliver the phone to get repaired. Then it's gonna be a pain to return for repair

ICS 4.0.3 Unbranded is your best bet. Just like a out-of-the-box device ready to get the Jelly bean update via OTA/Kies.
I have downloaded the file from Sammobile, it contains two files:
I9100XWLPG_I9100HTDLP4_I9100NELP4_HOME.tar.md5
SS_DL.dll
Do I flash this via ODIN or what? Don't I need more files for that?
Hey..
I have just rooted my Samsung Galaxy S2 to update to JellyBean 4.1.2. But apart from liberty i m very much depressed that i am not been able to play games on rooted phone. i want to ask that if i unroot my phone through Superuser app would it also wash my jellybean. or if there is some way that i could play HD games on the same phone without even thinking of unrooting?
Rooting doesn't affect anything. It could be a problem with phone or with the WAY you rooted.
What root method did you use?
Also i don't think you fully understand the meaning of rooting. Or maybe i didn't understand the statement "I have just rooted my Samsung Galaxy S2 to update to JellyBean 4.1.2" What do you mean, and how did you update to Jelly Bean?
I used odin for this Purpose and rooted using jellybean 4.1.2 official ROM available on internet..
That's what i meant. i hope you understand..
So u are proposing that i can use the *Unroot* option in superuser app and it wouldn't affect JB..??

Hmm, I think you are mixing the words flashing and rooting in a really confusing way, or are you saying that you flashed jb 4.1.2 with a custom kernel and then rooted? Whatever the case rooting doesn't effect games, I only know one game which does a root check (I forgot the name of the game but it was made by square enix) and that was later removed by the developer's themselves, just tell us what your actual problem is and what games are causing what kind of problems?
Sent from my GT-P6200 using xda app-developers app
Yeah. i did flashed my phone when it was gingerbread 2.3.3. then i just used odin, followed the instructions to have JB version.
Specifically In case of NFS Most wanted, First logo screen(EA GAMES) appears. and with in 5 secs it just closes down and says "Unfortunately, NFS Most wanted has Stopped* i have also tried modern combat 4. but No Luck
OK...so...
1) you're not rooted
2) even if you were....rooting will not cause problems like this, nor will upgrading Android.
3) all you have done, is update Android to the latest version.
I've a feeling that there's more you haven't mentioned......
What have you done/installed/tweaked/modded since you upgraded? The smallest thing may be important.
Also....after the upgrade, but before installing anything, did you wipe cache/data reset? Not doing so *can* cause all sorts of issues....even if it didn't result in a boot loop (which is the usual symptom).....

No Sir. i think i didn't wiped cache aur data rest.. From where do i suppose to do that cause i am certainly new to this rooting sort of things. i dont know much. infact, i have just got help from my friend to do JB on my phone.
With respect...you say you are new to all of this....
I *could* give you a step by step guide to tell you how to do it....but in all honesty, it's better for you that you search, read and learn.....
XDA has a very useful search function.....
Use it to search for 'entering recovery' and 'wiping in recovery'.....
You need to learn and understand the steps instead of just doing them. That way you're less likely to bork your phone........

My Note 2 had been running CleanROM for over a year, and I hadn't updated or done anything to it in that time. I was having some issues with lag and such but the final straw was yesterday my GPS quit working completely. When I tried turning it on my phone would freeze and I'd get a "System UI has stopped working" notification. So today I decided I'd start fresh and go back to stock 4.1.1 (I'm 99% sure that's what was on my phone when I got it) and used ODIN to flash back to that.
My question is, where do I go from here? I want to use one of the new ROMs utilizing the 4.3 or 4.4.2 versions, but I'm afraid I'm missing something important. I know not to just take the OTA updates, and I already installed (I think) the 4.3 MJ9 firmware update, but I'm not sure because it still says --- Android version 4.1.1 ; Baseband version I605VRUEMJ9 ---- Is this correct? Am I safe to install a 4.3-based ROM or do I need to update something else?
Thanks in advance for your help!!!

Yes you are.. Go ahead and flash away..
If you have problems connecting to wifi, then just go ahead and flash the MJ9 firmware again. But other than that you should be fine:good:

Hello,
First, Sorry for my english.. I am native french speaker.
Here is my problem.
I put / test many roms and now, I want to go back to stock rom because I want to sell the phone.
So I follow many topics and I always have the same problem.
In fact, I had the same problem with Sammy roms.
After flash the stock rom (France version), i follow the android setup without configuring any account... all is ok.
But After that, When I come into the home screen, all is very slow, lag !!
It crashs or the system is hanging, rebooting,...
If I want to unlock the screen, it's impossible because it's freeze.
I follow many topics about SDS, ... but i'm not satisfied with those topics BECAUSE When I install the Paranoid Android Beta 3, ALL is perfect !!!
No freeze, no lag,....
My problem is I f I want to sell the phone, I must come back to stock ... so How Can I do this ?
I know that stock rom is very buggy but When I buy the phone, I don't have problem with the stock Rom.
I had recieved 4.3 from my provider Proximus (Belgium) and no problem.
I can't go back to this firmware because on Sam, the belgium rom available for download is the 4.0 version ..
Thank you.
Try find a 3 file package and reflash stock rom (don't worry about country yet) then if everything works fine, wipe data and cache in stock recovery and flash French version

Do you have a link to a 3 file Package ?

If you flash the MG4 modem (https://www.dropbox.com/s/geispctijpxqjms/Patched_Modem_I9300XXEMG4.zip) you shouldnt get any troubles but just in case make an EFS backup
Sent from my toaster
Thank you foggy...
I've already downloaded that modem but I was not sure that I just have to flash that only file.
I will try when I have Time...
So... I've tried many differents things but it's always the same result.
If I put the belgian stock Rom (proximus), All is perfect BUT I'm in 4.0 version and there is no update available.
I've tried the Dutch, French, Luxembourg version (in 4.0 , 4.1 or 4.3) and the results are the same. It's very very slow, laggy,....
When I want to unlock the screen, it takes much time and after I received an error message like Process System doesn't respond'....
Even If I put the belgian one before and then, an other in 4.3.... all become very slow.
I don't understand where is the problem.
When I bought the phone, I've received an 4.3 update BUT What was the firmware version ???
The phone was bought in Mediamarkt in Belgium... maybe, it was not the belgian firmware ?!?
Unfortunately,I have the same bug. My phone flies with AOSP,but with stock ROMs,it's laggy,slow,and everything. Not that much,but still is. Also,going back to stock ROM made my camera laggy for ever. Not matter which ROM,my camera drops FPS when recording.
I hate this.

Its most probably u are using the MK6 firmware cos it is pretty buggy.(Forgot which firmware was it tat was buggy but I think it was MK6) Also, when the phone just get factory resetted, it is pretty normal for it to lag as it is installing all the apps etc.
Pretty normal... It seems very strange because When I've bought the phone, I didn't have those problems.
AND If I put the belgian firmware, I don't have any problem BUT I am in 4.0
As far I know, latest ROM for GT-I9300 XEF (French) is NA5, not MK6
This is the 2nd 4.3 Touchwiz Rom which is supposed to perform much better than the 1st r4.3 elease (MK6)
According to some report I read, NA5 implements TRIM much better and is (finally !) quick.
(sorry, I can't post URLS, I need to wait my 11th post (silly...))

MK6 was the best firmware ever for me. Battery and performance was amazing.
I tried NA5 later,and that was one of the most laggy stock ROMs I have ever tried.
I've already tried those last firmware and all are very slow and laggy...
I don't understand where is the problem.
I can see the problem directly after I've installed the firmware.
When I am in the setup wizard, If it's lag there.... so, there is a problem.
Setup wizard will be laggy in every rom, especially stock. Try having some patience.
Finish the setup and restart the phone, then use it for a few days before you decide it lags.

Most probably as when the phone is downloading ur old apps and restoring data etc when u do/finish the set up wizard, it lags as it has difficulties processing all those with just 1GB of ram.
