sent from the state where marijuana is NOT illegal !

Hope my country (Egypt) will get that modem......

go to sammobile,com and install a rom from the mg4 or mg5 ormg6 series of roms.. all firmwares on sammobile are official. Egypt is not on mg it is on mf6 which will not work. but you can use firmware for Netherlands , England, india etc

[Q] Choosing stock firmware confusion

Hello,
I live in Pakistan and I just got my Galaxy S3 Gt-i9300 and it had Saudi Arabian warranty in it so I guess it's from Saudi Arabia. I rooted and flashed custom ROM in it now I wanna revert back to stock firmware but when I select Gt-i9300 on sammobile for downloading stock ROM then I there's a box called "Country", I'm confused about this part, Idk what to select..
Here are the questions that I wanna know answers of:
Does international Gt-i9300 got different rom for different countries?
Is there possibility for bricking my device if I select different country but Gt-i9300 rom?
And last question, what country do I choose now?
Thanks!

yes. different firmwares for different countries. CSC changes from region to region. there is no risk of bricking if you flash a different firmware. check the details under about phone and google for the similar ones. good luck

you can basically choose any firmware from any country. It is recommended though, if you run into problems, to flash your stock firmware (your country & carrier) (e.g. you can run a UK version in the US as long as it is for the I9300). In addition a second part is about modems, which again, you can use any modem of any country, whereas usually modems from your region will work best.
To see different firmwares etc. have a look at sammobile, there you can filter for your country, carrier, model etc.

[Q] i9100 imei & baseband unknown,,,how to repair?

hi all,my sg i9100zslpg 4.0.3 show imei & baseband unknown,,,,plz help me to fix it,
i search forum but not understand clearly much to fix it,plz guide me,
thanks.
Try flashing some stock roms. If that doesn't work, it's a fairly expensive trip to a service centre or somewhat less expensive trip to a local mobile repair shop.
can you link me with that appropriate stock rom for such problem,or can i try with new jelly bean 4.1.2?
Go to Samfirmware, choose a rom for your carrier (important with this issue in particular) with the pulldown boxes, download the rom, unzip the tar file, throw away the .dll & flash the tar in the PDA section of Odin. And pray as it reboots that your IMEI will be back when you go into settings/about phone/status. You already know what will be happening if you still have the generic IMEI.
my device is rooted,does i need to unroot it first and can i flash the 4.0.4 jplpj on it?
Do not flash 4.0.4. Stay away from it. That you don't know flashing stock firmware will remove root is illustrative of why you find yourself in the position you're currently in.
ok,as i understand you that firstly i unroot device then flash rom,
can i use 4.1.2 XWLSD?

No need to Unroot the phone ma8, just flash the Stock JB 4.1.2 XWLSD firmware pertained to ur region from PC Odin and it will unroot ur phone for u
Alternatively, u can also use 'Mobile ODin' on ur phone (which is rooted for now) to flash the same Stock JB 4.1.2 XWLSD firmware pertained to ur region

[Q] Need a help with ROM thing

Hello, I've a question.
I'm on ROM I9300XXEMF6, but before I was on I9300XXELLA I'm living in Egypt, I don't know which ROM I should install, I provided Kies my S/N for an Emergency recovery, it removed XXELLA and downloaded the MF6 ROM (The original ROM which worked on my device properly since I bought it was XXELLA). My question is: Do I have to download the ROM from the manufacturing country or my regional area? If regional area please send me an EGY ROM to work on Vodafone as I know XXELLA is an old one and 3G/Edge doesn't work anyways. Thanks.
Abdnormality;4584533 My question is: Do I have to download the ROM from the manufacturing country or my regional area? I
ANY but rom for your location and network is best .

[q] imei lost after unroot

Hello Guys. I went into a bit trouble here...
I have Samsung S3 for more than 1 year, and I already flashing it with custom ROM without proper backup (foolish yeah i know)...
And now, I want to return to my official stock rom (unroot). Since i am from Indonesia, I found that the latest firmware my country has from S3 is 4.1.2 (from samsung-updates and sammobile websites) like this :
GT-I9300 Galaxy S III
PDA: I9300XXEMF6
CSC: I9300OLBEMF3
MODEM: I9300DXEMB1
Added: 2013-07-23
I reset the binary counter with triangle away and unroot it with mobile odin, but the problem is my imei was like "0049...../1" and I cannot make any calls or sms (not registered from network).
After reading a bunch of threads, i found the solution was to root it back again and install modem XXEMG4...
Is there anything I could do to have a working unroot phone? like using official stock rom from other country perhaps?
cheers
Yes it is the Modem problem. And for heaven's sake as soon as you root make a backup and backup your efs partition as well before you get into a bigger mess. Flash a stock rom that has the modem MG4 or flash a 4.3 rom of any country it hardly matters.
If i unroot it with a 4.3 rom from any country, then can i update through option "software update" or should i flash it again if there is any update in the future?
Thanks for the explanation!

no i dont think...but you can try by KIES..that may be possible..but some users have reported that kies also doesnt work for them..but you always have ODIN to flash firmware of other country or any your country whenevr it comes..
:good:
So i still have to root it?
Root doesn't matter, you cannot use the firmware of modem for your country as it is efs v1 and you didn't take a backup before you changed to v2.
There is no way back, you'll just have to wait for 4.3 to be released in your country if you want stock and unmodified status again.
