Which rom were you running? With knox? If yes, try flashing the same rom again. I read somewhere that you cannot go back to an earlier firmware if you flash knox enabled firmware. Check with shazzl.
Ok will download latest firmware. Thanks for your reply. I'll get back to you.

Was running stock Sammy firmware and then flashed old one because I didn't want to take any more risks but I screwed up lol. Now bricked

Would the firmware have to be from the same region ?

Hey I'm Australian and own an S3.. I'm sick of Vodafone update strategy.. I want to root, what do you think?
Sent from my GT-I9300T using Tapatalk 2
Ye root it, i rooted it too, except i think i need a replacement cause my phone has a problem.
Rooting could do lots of stuff.
If you ain't that good with computers and you don't want to stress yourself finding stuffs and working on it, don't do it cause it can risk your phone and might not brick.
Otherwise it's great to root
I've had the GNex.. I just hope it's as easy. Vodafone seriously piss me off..
I think Im Gonna root it.. just regret I didn't do that the moment I got it.. cause I seriously can't be stuffed going through the whole set up process again..

SGS3 doesn't really need root, as it is already good enough

flashing is just to do with odin...so
if you get the firmware file and use odin
no need of rooting
Ohhh okay cool.. do you know any links that can help me flash the unbranded ROM for the S3 and if I flash that Rom.. would I still be able to receive OTA updates?

I'm not sure about the OTA update, as it's generally released by Samsung or the carrier...so

You can also download latest Official Firmwares from http://samfirmware.com
Sent from my MB525 using Tapatalk 2
Yes. But you'll be able to do so with root too...
Many people confuse the two, so just to clarify:
Rooting means having a tiny modification in the phone's operating system so it doesn't restrict you from superuser commands.This will not affect your installed data or ability to upgrade.
Custom Roms is replacing the stock rom with a new operating system package someone else built which may or may not largely differ from Samsung's own version.

I just want an official non branded ROM .so I can get the latest updates without carrier delays .
Sent from my GT-I9300T using Tapatalk 2
There are always delays, whether carrier-, region-, or whatever-related.
You can flash the newer Rom's through Odin tough (again: the flashcounter does not increase with original ROM's) to get it as soon as the file is released.
Unbranded S1's had to wait several months for Froyo update over here...
Where can I find the latest official firmware?
Also since I'm in Australia.. does it matter what region firmware I update to? Say.. can I update to an European based firmware?

Hello,
I have flashed the stock version of Sprint TouchWiz Jelly Bean 4.3 (N900PVPUBMJ4) DeOdex Rom and flashed the MJ4 update fix as well. But, unfortunately I am not able to get my Baseband version updated. Its still stuck on N900PVPUMBMI3. I have flashed it using TWRP Manager.
You help will be appreciated!
Thank you!

If the Important DATA is stored in ur phones Internal Sdcard (the 11.5 gb partition) then u can safely flash any stock firmware from ODIN
for stock firmwares u can check.
www.samfirmware.com or www.sammobile.com
and u can easily search for a video guide on youtube on how to flash a stock firmware on i9100 using ODIN.
......or you could check the stickyed threads on this forum right here on XDA for Odin flashing instructions.... No need to look elsewhere on the web when everything you need is RIGHT HERE......
This might be my S2, or it might be my W...but it's definitely CM
well its a CWM prob
1. search threads for how to flash stock rom back via odin
2. re root and install cwm
3. Install the correct rom

well modded roms are like for example
some devs take the stock rom push their kernals with some minor or major tweaks
it might be in UI or apps or can be of anything
in simple works taking a stock rom or any other rom and overlaying it with some tweaks
Hi,
I restored my Galaxy S8530i to Stock ROM through clockWorkRecovery Mod. The ROM was successfully restored with all the data. But, the phone has lost its IMEI Number and Network. Please Help!
You should flash a stock frimware via ODIN ans never a stock ROM via CWM Recovery.
