My phone has insane chip. Look picture in attachments
So HELP

Get a straight jacket for it? Or, well, maybe read about what insane chip and SDS actually mean.

Yep. There are threads in general. Sticky roll-up thread would be a great place to start as my signature suggests

You can ask your phone vendor why . Ask Samsung why . Ask a Samsung forum why .
Or join XDA Developers and flash a stock rom via Odin . Its all in the stickies .

Most importantly, is your phone GT-i9300? Because S3 has various models and can not messed up the ROM
Actually, personally think the region code doesn't matter at all.
You should spent a little more time in general section, everything you need lays right over there

Be patient, it's not complicated as you thought. As matter of fact, I brought my Nexus S 18 months ago, then I immediate (like 20 minutes reading the thread and 10 minutes of preparation and operation ) unlocked bootloader and rooted it , I didn't even know "Android "before I got that phone!!!
if you mother language is not English, you can search some thread with your own language thread which should make it easier.
Just be patient reading these thread, don't be panic, this is not anything emergency, you have lots lots time doing this.

If you are in Greece this link will take you to Sammobile firmwares, make sure you do have i9300 international then download the lates version i9300XXELLA and flash it using Odin which you already have.
Make sure you understand how to flash via Odin by reading the Odin thread if you do it wrong you will just have an expensive brick

Many people have spent a lot of time creating tutorials for beginners like you. Please search the forum for your answer. And yes, flashing a custom rom voids your warranty, but you can always return to the stock software.

(1) for backups etc. have a look in the stickies and FAQ thread of the Q&A section, all included in the how-tos
(2) should you update? decide for yourself...if you cannot live without "these features" I guess you have no other choice
(3) is it safe? nothing is 100% safe

Agree and that is due to multiple guides posted all over the place and often repeating those that are stickied .Its a fact of questions and other junk posted in General section cluttering up and hiding the guides .
But as 99% refuse to even start by reading post one why put any effort in to make it more accessible .
In my view we should have one section with Q&A including all general topics . Plus one locked section for guides and faqs with new posts at the discretion of the mods only .

That's a really good idea. Unfortunately it would need to be a site wide change, which would be hard to get admin buy in for. They could perhaps have a "lesser" mod, like a guide admin user base that could manage that for each device, because they would need to understand teh guides and if they were accurate or not anyway.
You should suggest it

That's actually a great idea indeed, you got my vote .
The only challenge will be then, and I guess it is valid not only for XDA but also in real life, how to get people to read first and not go the "easy" way of posting/asking the same old question.
Nevertheless a guide/faq section would be a good start.

That isn't totally true, im on 4.2.2 custom for 3 weeks now and can't say it's less stable than 4.1.2
Rooting always voids your warranty, it means it's on your own risk. Sometimes when you soft-brick your phone you can go back to stock, for what i've read.

Dear friends
I need help here,, I need 4 parts official Android ICS 4.1.2 to install it because i have a WiFi problem that requires this type of installation according to some articles
Can you please guide me where i can download it??
Thanks
What guide exactly were you following? Whatever it is, I'd love to see the guide that says 4.1.2 is ICS. Its not, it's JB. So do you want 4.1.2 or 4.0.3? No matter, download if from Samfirmware.

No harshness intended at all mate. If I was being harsh, I wouldn't have told you where to download the firmware from, I answered your question.
A little pointer such as I posted will not hurt at all. Please double check what you post before posting. I for one am put off helping someone if the basic info is incorrect. Hence, no harshness intended, just a little pointer to get your facts straight.
