Chinese 4.3 ROM Flashing? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just downloaded the full Official Chinese 4.3 ROM. When I tried to flash it using odin it results in a flash error. It does not flash. Using the UK 4.3 ROM has no errors in flashing. Any thoughts on this? Thanks.

There is a very good reason it didn't let you flash.
Let's say you want a heart transplantation. You wouldn't want the heart from a baboon ? (or wait ? would you ?)

I did flash a CF-ROOT manually, XX_OXA_KG1, using ODIN.
The file from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
I did flash the last ROM using ODIN (from V1.5 to V2.0). But for V2.1, i flashed it using CWM, goes the same with V2.2.

You've done everything correctly, better if you ask this in litening rom thread...or maybe wait for 2.3, if it comes as a full rom, it would be great

thanks Kryptoner, but unfortunately i still can not post anything to the ROM thread, i haven't got any permisison from Mods. I wish someone could really post the same problem with me, and i could find the same solution. Don't want to wipe the data (like i have read in other forums if can't flash a new ROM or updated the ROM with CWM)
please help.
Could someone help me? I would appreciate it. Thanks
Did you try to download the rom again?

Can 2.2 be flashed via CWM .
Page one of the rom posts says flash via ODIN unless you have different instructions its a user error .

What is Needed to Update ICS ?

Hi, I would like to use Custom ROM for my S2, but I'm afraid there's some error when I use the ROM and Kernel.
What should I prepare before some error is occurred ?
I never update to ICS, so I don't know which one the StockROM is.
Anyone could help me ?
Thanks.
Hi,
you need to read the guides :good:

Read some guides for odin. Then go to www.sammobile.com and download a stock firmware and flash through odin, there's some ics firmware on the site.
Or you can root your device and flash a custom rom through cwm recovery.

Yay... Success...
I hope there's no error when I'm used it
Thanks..

I can find a proper rom for my sgs2

i have sgs2 kernal xwkdd-cl161513
can anybody tell where i can find a proper ROM, if there is an offical one would be better!
have you looked at http://www.sammobile.com most of the original stock ROMS are there? You have to register and you can search by Country to find the original ROM for your phone.
What do you mean by proper ROM

I think you miss something here. When you flash a new rom (custom via CWM or official via Odin), your kernel will be 'updated'. So your current one doesn't matter.
And why flash XXLSJ when official JB is already out..?

You indeed can't use Kies when you have root access. The link to official roms has been given above at the first answer. Flash it with Odin.

How on earth do you expect anybody to tell you which rom you need to flash when you have not given a single bit of specific info about your device like which model s2 it is, what your location is etc etc?
You have already been given a link to find your correct rom, use it and then flash via ODIN using guide on forum.

But couldn't recover the lost memory.operating system occupied 5GB space . I have no idea what to do any HELP is greatly appreciated

ok. no problem for that !
small tutorial. Look what you have to do!
download your stock firmware from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p780/development/p780-stock-rom-links-t2842399
Use only this 2 tools to flash: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B_B98oK4DpK1S1l2bXRkTGxhVFk&usp=sharing
If you use other tools you can corrupt your NVRAM and loose IMEI.
After flash you need to install TWRP. Here is the small tutorial and tools: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p780/help/rooting-tutorial-kitkat-t2835605
After TWRP install, you can install any zip file firmware. Here is what i reccommend: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0Bw-fSKX78W43R0xHSXVMajNucFE&usp=sharing
MIUI 6.1.21 is the file you should install. ROW version.
Good Luck.
Waiting for feedback!
