[Q] Which Android version to download ? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I had purchased my Samsung S3 in US. However I am using it in india. I wanted to know which version of android should I download. The one realesed in US is 4.3 while India is still sturggling at 4.1.2. Is there a way to get the higher version.?
Thanks in advance for the help !!

If it is an I9300 then download one for your location / network.
Higher version yes read the forum 4,3 posts .
But be 100% sure you have I9300 model not a US version .

Hey JJEgan,
Thanks a lot for the reply. I am 100 % sure I have the I9300 version as whenever I boot that is the model number that pops up. Plus does not have any of the US carrier logos which normally are present on the back of the US versions. So could you provide me with any links on how to upgrade to a higher version ?

U have to search tat for urself. Google search "Leaked 4.3 rom for gs3 international" BACK UP ur efs FIRST BEFORE FLASHING. IMPORTANT.

Give a thank if i helped you.

Go to settings, about device, and look under model number. If it doesn't say i9300, then search for the forum that is for that model.

Android ROM/firmware/modem/kernel terms?

Hi,
Sorry if its a rather simple question but can someone please either explain or point me in the right direction on the different terms used on Android phones especially when it comes to custom roms, kernels, firmware etc
What do these terms mean, what do they do and what can be updated individually or what comes part of other software/firmware/ROM etc..
Also which terms are used interchangeably but mean the same...
Apologies for asking this simple question and thanks in advance as I'm confused to what exactly i can update, in what order etc! BTW I'm using an old miui build and i thought i was running an old siya kernel? I still want to stick with miui ROM....

basical the following is:
baseband = modem is the radio that allows you to make calls.
kernal = firmware which contains the apps and other controls.
build = Rom is firmware, modem, bootloader all under one file.
Kernel the very base of the OS communicates between cpu etc and OS .Same as Linux or Windows kernel
Firmware usually a full package includes apps kernel modem OS and csc .
Modems are interchangeable for most country's
Kernels are interchangeable .

its not compatible with 9100G.

Up....
Andy developer..!!!! ??
Few people have or use the 9100G and have the knowledge required to root firmwares. If you want development, get the European international model 9100)
Hi..
Even if there are few people using this 9100G ..
you should be interesting for them..
if the developer not help us...!! So who will help..?
thanks for all..
Still waiting..

Why should I be interested?
I develop for devices I have. That means GT-I9100 and HP Touchpad.
Your device is totally different from the European model, and isn't compatible with the same ROMs and kernels.
So without having the device, it's unlikely someone can help.
For ROOTing-->Use Doomlords easy rooting toolkit it works well with the G version
For Kernel with CWM-->Flash superatoms 1.2 kernel using Odian
For CUstome ROM--> Flash superatoms 2.0 with CWM recovery mode.

If I can make out correctly you want to go back to ICS from JB? Try ODIN'ing back to latest stock ICS build from your region, if you do not have a nandroid backup. (you might have to factory reset the phone in case you are stuck in bootloop)

Looks like a direct translation from Japanese to English.
I think this guy flashed the JB release on the Japanese S3 variant and now he's got this information onscreen.
Here's my attempt to ask him whether he's got an I9300.

Do you have the international I9300 model or the Japanese model?
If you have the Japanese model then download the appropriate firmware and install it using 'Odin'.
あなたは国際I9300モデルや日本人モデルを持っていますか?
あなたは日本のモデルを持っているなら、適切なファームウェアをダウンロードし、"オーディン"を使用してそれをインストールしてください。

Does the IMEI and serial number in settings, about, status match what is written under your battery?
If either is wrong or blank then search Q&A for possible solutions.

Probably, it can be the SIMcard... Have you tried another SIM? Take your SIM out of the SIII and clean the golden chip on the SIM... You can although try to clean the SIMcontroller on the SIII where you plug in the SIM....
If it doesn't work, have you flashed a i9305 ROM? It can break you SIMreader...

it seems Opsson is a very small brand even in China, that means there aren't many roms.
searched a lot, found only 1 custom rom here: http://pan.baidu.com/s/1jG3Kwjc
you can try it yourself.
actually, nobody knows that brand here in China......
thanks a lot let me try.

I downloaded that custom rom and found that there is no system folder, system.img file is there. then where should i copy my firmware stock to custom, and other thinks from stock rom to custom? or dont need not to copy those from stock to custom?
Lollifox for best performance
Miui v5 for best look
Dream os for both above
Emotional lollipop
You can find those rom in blog name "mtkcrom" google it.
And don't forget to port ROM for your device.
That's all I have in mind
Request
