Hi Guys
I'm a newbie here... I've done thorough searches here, but no-one's posted a query like I seem to have?!
I purchased an Australian SGS3 I9300 on the Optus network from the UK eBay site (this wasn't mentioned in the auction, so I expected to receive a full UK firmware/spec phone), it comes with Jellybean which I'm not a massive fan of...
Am I able to downgrade the australian 4.1.2 Jellybean firmware, to either an international or UK (O2 Telefonica) ICS 4.0 (which I love)?
Is it just a general download of the international firmware from Sammobile and flash through Odin?
Any help and advise appreciated

I would root the phone first and make a backup of your current firmware. Then just get the ICS FW you want to flash and do it through odin.

Thanks for your reply!
I was 'hoping' not to root it, and just do it as a general firmware download?

wouldn't you rather have a backup just in case though? you can always use triangle away and then once you flash with odin you will be back to stock anyway!
Get a copy of the firmware that is currently on the phone or at least make a note of it .
Then via Odin flash a stock UK rom from stock rom thread or from sammobile.com .

Hey all,
Looking for the I9300XXELLA HTD (Denmark Three) stock firmware.
Samsung Updates is seemingly stuck waiting (started the upload yesterday) and the hotfile link that is posted everywhere is dead.
Does anyone know whereelse I can find the firmware for my Samsung Galaxy S3 ?
Just wait for sammobile to finish the uploads on the new site Terafile..and then just do a check here your wanted firmware http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/ :good:
Hi everyone. I am using Samsung S2 and i want to root it but before it, i want a Jelly Bean Stock ROM for my Samsung S2 in case i want to restore it back again on the same ROM as seen in screenshots. Region for my ROM is COA (Romania - Cosmoto). I dont know about these kind of things much so please guide me. A link for my S2 Stock ROM would be appreciated. I have seen www.sammobile.com but my ROM's PDA, CSC, Baseband files not match with the ROM uploaded there. Please find one for me so i can root it. I would be thankful. Waiting for an early response.
Anybody? Please.
