I cant really find the thread with the new fix for jelly bean 4.3 I went back in the threads
until nov 25.
could u show me where it is?
General forum, at the top are sticky threads, 4.3 discussion, is the one you are looking for.
Be careful, it's very easy to brick your phone with impatience.
Also, no-one has posted the update zip so you are looking at flashing a custom Rom and voiding your warranty if you want it really bad.

I did try to flash my rom before without problems, but after I install jelly bean 4.3 the other day with Odin
I did try to root my phone afterwards, but I cant connect to Odin in download mode, I have read everything in google, what to do and nothing works so i give up that part.
thats why I just want the update.zip because I dont know when OTA will release it on my phone, and I get crazy of the issues the 4.3 has.
I just thought the update was released as a file, so I could use Odin to update it, because I read that.
If your ask was for an update from OTA in zip format then the answer is no .
But as you dont give any details of this fix then i may be wrong .
All the 4.3 information is posted including a repacked flash-able dump .

jelly bean 4.3 samsung push out was suspended, coz of huge errors in it,
they made a update fix and that one I would like to install, so I can get rid of the big errors in jelly bean 4.3.
but I guess I just wait for OTA to update my S3
I've installed just the updated kernel from MK6, which fixes 95% of the problems with 4.3

thx a lot, the problem I have now is I cant connect to Odin in download mode. its a known problem in the forums. this jelly bean 4.3 have ruin that feature, coz the way I install 4.3 was throgh Odin and no problem, so I know the problem is at my phone.
coz I try several pcs and cables, and reinstall drivers, no need to tell all, coz its everywhere. and there is many ppl out there, who have same problem and they gave up, its a shame.
Mobile Odin. Or flash a stock Rom through cwm/trwp in a zip format. You didn't say if you want it bk to stock or not.

the only thing I know is, if I need to install that zip file, so I need to reboot my phone into recovery mode and I cant do that coz my phone isnt rooted anymore and i cant root it again, coz no connection to odin in download mode.
I am not prof in all this, but this jelly bean 4.3 have really made things difficult coz of the issues it has.

4.3 does not break download mode, use odin to flash rooted rom. If it won't connect then you have some other issue, most likely your pc. Search and learn how to fix it.

hi everyone!
would really appreciate some clear advice on how to unroot sgs3 i9300 on vodafone.ive looked on the forums and im jus confused and i just dont understand.yes a noob.all this talk bout flash counters roms i just given up almost.
i got fone rooted already from a friend.they wrote down what actually was done.
cf root 6. something was used via odia 1.85 on pc.
i have jelly bean 4.1 xxdlih running but it says modified and ota wont wrk? i connect to kies and it says up to date.
am i on a stock rom? or is it custom? sorry ive been getting all this from the forums just not sure.
if a new official firmware was released i could update through kies? without problems? and return phone to normal?
would this cwm cf root cause problem when eventually updating through kies as i have modified status on phone? is flash counter increased?not sure again.
would ota start working? read somewhere people still get ota. but i dont. i knw there isnt a firmware available but it says modified so stopping future updates? i jus want fone normal.i knw benefits of rooted as i been reading up last 5days but i dont need them.
i looked on sammobile and the latest official i see is for my fone xxdlih? thats what i have?
there option in supersu to remove root? what would happen if did that? i guess it would unroot but would phone still be modified status? or return to normal? ota would be working again?
i think that most of it.thanks to anyone who can jus clear things up in a basic way for me.thanks!!!!
just flash the latest stock rom - XXDLJ4 I think.
Download from sammobiole and flash with ODIN.
There's tutorials on here on how to use ODIN.
Root etc. will be removed.

hi mike thanks for the quick reply.i jus looked it up and i have to be in download mode with usb debugg ticked on phone right? i looked on sammobile its xxdlih for my fone which is what im on.sorry if im not getting it.do i flash the same one again? thanks again man!
No problem
I suggested XXDLJ4 as this is the latest official unbranded JB firmware for the UK.
Flashing this would mean you wouldnt have to update OTA or Kies once youve unrooted.
You can flash XXDLIH if you want, you would then get an OTA to upgrade to XXDLJ4 (or similar).
Yes, make sure you're in download mode / usb debugging on to use ODIN.
Make sure 'repartition' is NOT ticked and all should be good.
EDIT - see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1911726 for guides on using ODIN.

flashing either of the firmwares will put you on the latest - either Unbranded or Vodafone Branded.
They are both 4.1.1.
4.1.2 hasnt been released yet...

Instead of going through the hassle of the official software update, you can download your official ROM using Check Fus Downloader and flash it via Odin.

Go to sammobile, create an acount there. Find the firmware that you want, preferably 4.0.3. Once its done, unzip it and it should come in either a .tar or .md5 format. Put it in the PDA ssction of odin and flash.

You gotta download an official ROM first.
I suggested using checkfusfownloader in my previous post. It allows you to download the latest official version of a carrier.
You just have to select the country and carrier of the ROM you want and then it downloads the ROM for you.
Which country/provider are you on?
Afrer downloading the ROM then download Odin from http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=581913&d=1304094576. Connect your S2 to your PC and use the PDA button to flash the ROM you just downloaded.
There are also tons of flashing yutorials in XDA in case you have difficulties flashing.

Looking For 4.1.2
In fact I was looking for a solution to switch back to Custom 4.1.2 as it was the perfect ROM so far for me.
I have downloaded it from Sammobile but after Installing it via Odin I am unable to see any network and the Phone's IMIE is changed. I would greatly appreciate anyone to come up with solution for that....
Thanks everyone for being so kind...

Check your IMEI number, wheather it was changed to 0049XXXX - I have had the same problem. I downloaded from Sammobile firmware v4.3 and flash your phone with odin. My IMEI and network connection was restored. Looks like Samsung does not like us to downgrade the firmwares.

Solution.....
Hello guys....
I am very thankful to the xda forum and all the members who helped me to get through a serious problem..
Recently I installed 4.3 Leaked version on my GT-I9300 and the ROM proved to be worst ROM of life. So I decided to go back to 4.1.2.
I installed the custom ROM via Odin but I confronted a serious issue, when I was finished the installation I found that there was no network at all... Samsung's official told me that it is impossible to reverse the Android version...
I had no clue what to do. I flashed many ROMs but no solution at all. My IMIE was also kinda jumbled..
Many guys said it is EFS issue... But it is not EFS issue...
It is all because of different Modem issue.. all you need to do is just install a clean custom ROM from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/ and Install the patched modem... you are done..
So here is the solution:
1. Download your desired CUSTOM ROM for your Country from Sammobile...
Link http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/
2. Install the ROM via Odin
3. Root it and Install your favorite recovery.
4. Install the Patched MG4 Modem Zip in Recovery Mode. Link https://www.dropbox.com/s/geispctijp...9300XXEMG4.zip
You are done....
This problem is all about MODEM version, so I don't think if EFS tricks are involved here.....
Finally credits go to all the XDA Members who put their heart and soul to present all the required guidance for me to be able to downgrade to lower Android Version.. I have only compiled the whole stuff into a single thread....
Thanks,,,

Dear sir,
Actually the problem is not finding the solutions but finding the right solution.
Worth members of XDA Forum post a lot of solutions for a particular problem and thus newbies like me get even more confused... So it definitely takes some time for us to come to a point when we are able to get the desired results.
Sometimes, we are not able to clarify our queries.....
As in my problem only a Modem was required while I was looking for EFS solutions!
After Flashing the MG4 modem my battery life has become worst. I don't know if it is because of the Modem.. but whenever my phone is on airplane mode then the battery remains at the same percentage but while on network my battery keeps on draining without even texting or calling

I can confirm that this method works. XEMB5 (4.1.2 stock rom) on top of the crappy 4.3 update, rooted it and then installed CWM. flashed the patch modem from the link he gave and the XEMB5 rom is working with network running again. but it seems like the battery is awful, 95% in just 10 minutes? lost 5 percent for that short amount of time -_-
then again, thanks for this!

Yes after flashing this modem the battery drains so quickly..
I am looking for any solution. Hopefully any developer would come with a good solution.
In battery system I see The Android System draining almost 25 to 30 percent of battery

My problem is little different. I can flash any ROM via Odin[DO NOT FORGET TO CHARGE YOUR MOBILE ABOVE 80% battery level!]:
1. Goto recovery by pressing "vo upl+home+power" release when you Samsung's bootloader.
2. Do factory reset/wipe everything.
3. Remove battery for 10secs. Then put it back.
4. Now press "vol down+home+power" to bring it into download mode. Then follow odin flashing procedure. It will work for any Samsung rom. No need to intall any custum roms.
Now going to my problems:
A. My s3 shuts down when it's idle.
B. Bluetooth button does not work. It tries to go to ON position but goes back OFF after 2/3 sec.
After downgrading from earlier 4.3 [SWC] I have even upgraded it with latest 4.1.2 xxemh4 but no luck!
Every thing works network, wi-fi etc. except above two problems!
Help me please!!
I FOUND SOMETHING, WHEN I DO *#1234* IT SAYS CSC: UNKNOWN though my network is ok and wi-fi works fine. Lemme try patching CSC as featherknox suggested!
@featherknox, But your patched modem can not be flashed in recovery[stock] mode as it says "Signature verification failed". HELP ME WHAT I SHOULD DO?

first of all 4.2.1 or 4.1.2 ?
secondly have you wiped data/cache/dalvik cache and format system ?
Third did you try flashing any other supported kernels for your current android version ?

Read the faqs and guides or take to a service centre .
Ok guys here's the deal, last year I rooted my friend's s3 (international, india, i9300) because there was no available update to android, so I flashed purelook HD 8.0 (android version 4.1.2), now he is saying that his phone has become very slow so he wants to go back to stock
so I downloaded "INU-I9300XWUGML4-20140107141249.zip" but after downloading this I saw that it is for android 4.3 (new official update).
So my question is should I directly flash this in ODIN (android 4.3) or I should download older official update before flashing new update?
If it's a full, multi part stock rom then it wouldn't be a zip. Odin can't flash zips.
Suggest you read the basics in general forum, sticky threads, before you do anything else.

yeah I know odin doesn't flash zip's, I quoted the file name just for reference as there were two firmwares updates available for india, one INS another INU on doing some searches I came to know that they are locked and unlocked updates, kinda same, you can download any one.
is there any number I should match before downloading...we do not have contract phones in india, just retail so I was confused therefore I downloaded the unlocked one
back to the point, I know that I have to extract it first, there is a file inside it, named "I9300XWUGML4_I9300ODDGML4_I9300DDUGMK1_HOME.tar.md5"
so maybe now you can help me out, whether should I flash it or download an earlier version and flash it prior to flashing this one...
So my question is should I directly flash this in ODIN (android 4.3) or I should download older official update before flashing new update?
Its your choice but as said read and understand the basics first .

Well I know how to flash roms/firmwares via ODIN, I know I have to check my counter too if it is not zero than I will have to reset it
so is there anything else?
I'm just asking this because I don't know much about s3 but I had note and I remember it had some issues regarding upgrading to a ice-cream sandwich version, something related to 'safe kernel' many other things...
and even I tried searching for basics, I didn't find anything else other than this and if there is something I am still missing then please kindly link me to it or just answer the question, IS IT SAFE or not?

dudes dudes dudes I repeat once more, I know how to flash and what to flash,eg
first of all - reset the counter, app triangle away
then - install stock recovery, already downloaded
finally - flash stock rom, already downloaded
I know about the modem, efs back up and everything, all I am asking is, is it safe to directly upgrade from a third party 4.1.2 rom to stock 4.3 rom, I hope you understand my question this time... :angel:
We have always understood the question jude .
You fail to understand the answer nothing is 100% safe its your choice .
