Today I got notification that firmware update is available. Its about 26 MB in size and has some stability improvements. I downloaded it. When it begins installation it goes to 24% without any problem but after that phone reboots and an error message pop ups that update failed.
I use unrooted stock ROM.
if you are unrooted then there should not be any problem...
but which firmware is of 26 MB in size..
all firmware would be around 125 mb.
download firmware from sammobile and flash it though odin

I tried by using Kies too but it asks for 'atleast 3000 MB free space on disk'.

Split firmware using splitfus. It will work. There is a guide about spliting the firmware in development section.

Its a software update package. Not full firmware. It updates only needed files and wont harm any data files vs... And the size depends on how many updates you have done before.

You can`t as you have a custom recovery, try updating with Kies but you will loose root (so reroot) or better yet buy Mobile Odin Pro and flash the new rom from www.sammobile.com/firmware and keep root

Unzip the file from sammobile, place the tar file on the external sd card. Open Mobile Odin and choose open file, select the tar file (firmware) and check all boxes in root and flash firmware. Done.

That, or just use Odin on your PC. It's a bit less hassle.
Where do i get the zip folder from samsung from i have downloaded the ota but it failed to install is this saved somewhere on my s3 and do i need to unzip this and use the tar file from there.

Hey guys, so I am rooted but with stock firmware, however I used Titanium to remove certain stock software, etc...
1)If I update via Kies, will it keep my current settings? or will it just flash a new rom altogether and erase everything?
2)Once I update, do I just go through the same steps I did to root my s3 the first time?
Thanks.

1). it will keep your current settings, app & data (because you not do "wipe cache" at OTA update), if you installing custom firmware (from stock to custom firmware, it will be need "wipe cache/factory reset in recovery mode, but this method doesnt applied on OTA update/KIES update), but i suggest to backup your data before upgrading..
2). yes, just root like you root at first time..

im sorry but this isnt working
Hi,
Had the same problem the other day. Tried a lot of combinations. In the end I managed to restore the CSC by resetting the flash counter with triangle away and immediately afterwards flashing a stock ICS Rom for my country with Odin (the PC version, mobile Odin didn't manage to resolve the problem).
Hope this helps.

anyone else?
flash the stock ics that came with your phone. do a factory reset using the home+vol up+power button. do a reset using the option in setting. try using the tool to change csc. did it work?
if not try again.
i had to flash twice and do the above before it worked for me for some odd reason. im no expert. thats what i did and it worked after i did that
If your phone works you do not need to change your CSC .

i have my galaxy s3 from orange england i unlock it and root it i conect it with kies i fine in kis a new update after this update i dont fine the cwm icon only SU icon a month after this i instal an officiel rom from sammobile i like it 4.1.2 one week after this i reinstal the same rom and now my mobile cant take updates from kies or odin and i cant root it !!
anyhelp please ????
sorry for my bad english im talking french ..
my galaxy is GT-I9300
is your device rooted? if it is you should just follow the instructions
1.hold volume up + home + power buttons to see the recovery mode
2.intsall zip from sd card (for a custom rom)
if you want the official rom just use odin
1.download odin
2.plug the device in download mode (volume down + home + power)
3.add the official rom in pda section then click the start
if you think u have a u should be clear
Not sure what you mean by odin updates. Odin doesn't do updates. You find a rom yourself and flash using odin. I'm pretty sure kies doesn't let you update rooted phones.
I suggest the same as above. Try installing a custom rom through recovery. You may have flashed unrooted official rom which means you have to root it again to get supersu back.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Well writing in understandable English would be a thing to start with.
You cannot update a phone trough kies when it is rooted. Kies will abort the update and give you a message which tells your device is rooted.
I would suggest you try to get into recovery mode and restore a nandroid backup.
If that's not working try flashing an official rom trough odin and root your phone again afterwards.
You could aswell go to a nearby orange shop and ask a salesman to restore the official firmware. (they have all the packages there ).
sorry
Sorry for my bad english i flash an officiel firemware In odin from sammobile now when i try to updat my s3 in kies i cant and also when i try to flash the last firemwar kies stop on get pit for mapping !!! Itry to change usp ports nothing work
Don't use kies. Just use odin to flash whatever firmware you need.
You won't be able to update using kies as your device status will be "modified". You need to unroot and factory reset to get it back to official.
As for not being able to root your device, flash xxella firmware from sammobile and flash siyah 1.8.7 kernel in cwm recovery. I can verify that definitely works.

Im trying the xxell1 but again odin stop on get pit for mapping ! nothing working
My guess is your pit partition is messed up. I suggest you search for a way to sort the pit mapping problem. I've seen some people recommend downloading a pit file from sammobile for your firmware.
Otherwise you'll have to send it off to repair centre.

I need pit file for my firmware or for the newfirmware that i want to flash via odin ???

The one you want to flash. I think they're all the same. This is an inference from the fact that we don't use pit files when flashing new firmwares under normal circumstamces.

Hi guys,
Today I was updating my bootloader and modem to 5.1.1 to install a new ROM, this step was in the guide of the rom.
I flash via Odin and work fine, but my phone get stucked in the Samsung logo.
I tryied to restore my nandroid but didn´t work, and I was able to enter in the TWRP, i try to wipe all cache but nothing again.
I tryied to do an emergence software recovery from SmartSwitch, and fails everytime.
When I try to flash the stock firmware 5.0.2, don´t pass in the Odin and in the phone appears the message: SW REV. CHECK FAIL DEVIDE : 2 BINARY 1 in bold and red.
And now I can´t access my recovery mode, only download.
I´ve tryied to remove the hidden img but don´t work either.
Any other ideas? Dont know what to try now
SM-G925I
PDA: OE3
CSC: OD2
PHONE: OE3(ZTO)
I tryied now to flash the stock firmware 5.1.1 indian version, but fails.

I did man. I´ve removed the hidden.img, cm.bin and sboot.bin files from the Stock firmware 5.1.1 from UK.
Use the Total Commander to delete the files and mount the .tar file to flash in Odin...
I try 2 times to work
