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?

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?

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?

you can download this and flash it with odin
I'm not sure about the OTA update, as it's generally released by Samsung or the carrier...so
Thanks so much for your help..
Really appreciate it.. I found this link.. I hope it works..

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?

I have a question. If i update my s3 via OTA, does it mean i'm updating to a stock rom? Will it affect my rooting or whatsoever? And can i downgrade if i want to?

Yes and yes. But you can easyly reroot with CF-Root. Or you can flash the firmware with mobile odin pro then your root is untouched. Yes you can flash other firmware to downgrade.
Firmwares can be downloaded at sammobile.com or checkfus
If you update via OTA firmware stocks of your s3 , you will receive an update of your firmware stock samsung, updates are no wipe , you can make a downgrade with ODIN ....
I have another question. I'm enroute to flashing the omega rom on my phone. If the official jellybean comes out, what do i do? Install via KIES? My phone will still be in the rooted stage right?

As soon as official jellybean drops there will be a custom ROM out within hours, and the firmware will be available at samfirmware.com as soon as it is released.
You'll have loads of options.
The custom ones will be pre-rooted, the stock one from samfirmware can be rooted with cf-root. (The leaked one can so I presume official one will too)

That isnt the problem heh. I always backup my data before flashing.
By the way, my version of triangle away, I cannot see the flash status when i load up the app. I have to go into download mode to view my flash counter. Any ideas?

Don't want to back up all that stuff.

Like I just said DO NOT use this method. Chainfire no longer supports it but worse than that, cwm it comes with does not prevent SDS. Do NOT use this method.

Thanks, i flashed the new cwm that should have SDS fix
So i guess it should be fine to use the cf root and then just update the recovery, right? i mean there's not a big chance of sds on first recovery use

That's exactly the same as using cf auto root. So why not just use that?
Or just flash recovery if you don't need root. You don't need root if you're flashing a custom rom.

I guess the best thing is to check the main features of latest stable roms (based on stock firmware if you want all samsung features) and then try the ones you like the most..
I wanted to try android 4.3 and eliminate all the samsung (mostly useless for me) stuff, so i checked some threads in the forum and now i'm trying the supernexus 3 rom, it's pretty good, with not many customizations, but very lightweight..
Hey guys my s2 will not load up.it stops on samsung. I tried recovery mode too cache clear.ive got some important dsta on this, which I wish to get back!
Any help is much appreciated.as im noob myself.

If the Important DATA is stored in ur phones Internal Sdcard (the 11.5 gb partition) then u can safely flash any stock firmware from ODIN
for stock firmwares u can check.
www.samfirmware.com or www.sammobile.com
and u can easily search for a video guide on youtube on how to flash a stock firmware on i9100 using ODIN.
......or you could check the stickyed threads on this forum right here on XDA for Odin flashing instructions.... No need to look elsewhere on the web when everything you need is RIGHT HERE......
This might be my S2, or it might be my W...but it's definitely CM
well its a CWM prob
1. search threads for how to flash stock rom back via odin
2. re root and install cwm
3. Install the correct rom

well modded roms are like for example
some devs take the stock rom push their kernals with some minor or major tweaks
it might be in UI or apps or can be of anything
in simple works taking a stock rom or any other rom and overlaying it with some tweaks
