Hi I am hoping someone can help me out a bit,
I decided today to root and flash my I9300 to 4.4, I done a Titanium Backup and read everything I think I needed to.
Rooted phone successfully using Odin, so decided to look for a decent Rom to flash too. I decided on C-RoM-KK-v6.1-20140421-i9300 from this website,
everything seems to be working great, except that my Network Operator keeps swapping to TMobile instead of EE, I have checked my IMEI number to what it was originally and it hasn't changed, but even when changing networks manually to Orange (EE) it keeps changing back to TMobile.
Please if anyone has any ideas I would be grateful.
Thanks in advance.
Factory reset and flash the latest stock firmware with odin, then test.

Thanks, it's back to stock rom and working with EE (Orange) but still not sure why it would keep swapping from EE to TMobile on a 4.4 rom.
4.4 is not official so you can expect minor issues to happen.

Something over 200MB and it installed very easily.
All over my wifi connection at home.

did you guys root and have cwm installed? mine was installing the update, but then rebooted into cwm by itself. not sure what that was all about.
Yup mine booted into cwm and failed on something invalid? Anyone else with this?

Waiting to try the Rogers ICS when I get home. Looking forward to a hybrid/tablet ROM where we can use our Samsung native S-Pen apps and widgets.
I upgraded my co-worker's Note to Electron's UCLF6 stock rom just a week ago.
CWM'd back to stock, had to CWM flash the stock GB Rogers modem in order to get the upgrade to register.
He's wasting his data doing the upgrade now. Luckily it's only 251MB.
Maybe I'll hitup a Timmy's or Mc'D's at lunch and upgrade to Rogers ICS.

My OTA update failed with rooted phone and CWM. I used Kies(after it updated) and upgraded OK, losing root of course. On Rogers.

Didn't he also need to flash the stock recovery back to the phone in order to get the update?
No soup for me so far
I have a Rogers I717R, unlocked and rooted via the Odin method and am on Bell LTE and flashed with a Bell radio.
I have clicked on "Update" numerous times now, but it keeps coming back to me with "No update available"...is it because I'm rooted with CWM and running a Bell radio on the Rogers firmware?
I downloaded and installed Kies, but it says that my device doesn't support firmware updates via Kies or something to that effect... ;-(
I don't mind losing root (have to use that POS GOOD for Enterprise software for work), but I'm not sure what the issue is here or how best to address it. Do I have to reflash the original, untouched Rogers I717R firmware and radio via Odin to get the ICS update?
Thanks,
aus

May I ask where you got the "stock" Rogers CWM modem to flash? None of the links that I have found so far through searching through the forums are still valid
Do you think I have to flash back to stock Rogers firmware and if I do, will I lose all my data? That would be a bummer...
Thanks,

Used kies and it worked like a charm! Now just need to re root.
Anyone got the modified email with the exchange security bypassed working yet on ics?

Probably a stupid question, but *how* did you use Kies to update? I get the prompt about "device is not supported for updates" or something to that effect in Kies
Update: nevermind, I found a CWM flashable Rogers modem and this time when I fired up Kies, it prompted me with an update to firmware.
I had to do this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1657262
Followed those steps to get mine to successfully update OTA.
Guess with the custom roms something got screwed up.
I had to roll back to the original gingerbread Roger rom. When this was done the update happened flawlessly.
Once rooted it works like a charm.

Since I have root and custom recovery, I need to flash stock, unrooted 2.3.6 Rogers ROM (LA2) and stock recovery. Mine succeeded on OTA and Kies, but I prefer via Kies for it's reliable.
Can anyone grab the OTA file when updating via KIES?
Guys has anyone seen the new Rogers modem(cwm) floating around?
ive updated thru kies but ive lost my root..... how do i unroot again?
Can anyone upload the downladed result please ?
all I can find right now ar uclf6 and uclf4 (bell ) no rogers in sight , also the f/w revision woudl be cool

Thats the correct app drawer for official ics. It just looks like that that due to touchwiz. If you dont like it then use a different launcher.

Had the same here.
Flashed the Three UK modem (NELE4 I think) over XXLG8 on my unbranded unit -> people couldn't hear me
Flashed back the modem matching the firmware -> all good
I guess I'll have to wait for Three to update their modem to work with later firmware.

I'd say you answered your question yourself. If you can use the voice search function fine, then your microphone is still fully functional. You should rather ask the person who was calling you if his/her phone is still working alright. I've had the same problems and it was either:
The German Telekom performing maintanence on their network
or
The other party's phone crashed.
.
No. You cannot receive stock Samsung OTA updates if you're rooted. You can, however, get OTA updates from CyanogenMod. (And yes. Before anyone says anything, it DOES download deltas as well as the fully fledged software. It's just a matter of the app you're using and the settings you have set.)
Hope I could help!

I was reading in the tmobile galaxy note android development section of xda that someone has successfully flashed a stock T-Mobile note ROM image (rooted) and modem to our Att model.I attempted it but got stuck on the glowing Samsung symbol.Luckily i had a nandroid backup to restore to.Just curious if anyone has tried it on this model and been successful.

Yes, I have installed both. I uninstalled the T-Mo modem, as I found the Blaze ICS modem worked better for me.You need to try various modems and pick the one that is best for you. But I still have the T-Mobile rom. I like the wifi calling, it works well.
Can anyone link to these? I'd like to try the Tmo rom.
there is more involved than just flashing the rom/modem if you want it done right. There is a great thread in the tmobile GNote forum explaining how to do it. You have to flash the tmobile img file. I consistently got 6-9mb speeds but the real benefit is being able to use the wifi calling. Weird thing was that in order to get back to the i717 setup I had to revert back to stock, the re-root and flash twrp all over again. Only took a few minutes but just know that that is what it takes.

I had this same problem. I gave up. I'm running Black Star with the Blaze modem and everything is working fine for me.
I get er05 sim card error for wifi calling
I am running stock tmobile on the i717 and everything works very well except the wifi calling. I get the er05 invalid sim error. My sim is tmobile sim... . How can I get the wifi calling to work?
I just got a new phone, my mom bought it for me with the money we had saved and she hasn't even paid it whole yet.
I rooted it fine, but then I tried flashing CM10 on it, everything went smoothly but then it got stuck on the CM startup/splash screen or whatever it's called... when I turn it off it automatically reboots and the same thing happens.
it was locked to a carrier, that was probably what screwed it up... I don't know what to do...
if you need any info, please ask. I might know it.
please help :/

did u ever get the JellyBean update to work? I have the tmo S3 and was able to update via Samsungs kies software. However, in sep I had an ATT Galaxy Note and an international factory unlocked Note around for a bit, and the ATT version was supported in Samsung Kies for the ICS upgrade, but the international was not. I believe ICS had to be flashed in the end. I just thought I'd let u know what happened for me, hope it helps. Good luck

do I need to do anything before or just use odin to flash it?
Good day fellow xda'ers. I have a problem updating my gs3. Its been a month(s) now since i cant update my phone. Mine still running on 4.1.2 JB. And i cant update to 4.3 or 4.4 if available. Whenever i try updating it either OTA or via kies. It tells me that i have the latest update/firmware installed. Can anyone help me update my phone to official update that will not compromizing any of my phone or will still be available update in the future. Or doesnt mess up my phone or will not result to any issues. Or dont loose any official samsung capability here. Thanks in advance. Because as i read in some forums. Updating my phone manually will cause any issue like not able to receive official updates in the future or cannot use,update or download any official samsung apps.

OTA only works if you have unmodified status and the correct CSC code for the country you are in, corrupt data or firmware can also cause update failures.
If status and CSC are correct then try factory reset, if OTA still doesn't work then follow the guide in general forum, sticky on how to flash an official firmware using odin. Download the firmware from Sammobile.com, choose the latest firmware for your country and factory reset after flashing.
Ahm,how can i check for the status and the csc? Sorry for being noob here sir. The thing is im just a bit scared to brick my phone. And if i may ask sir does installing a firmware using odin will not affect my phone or cause further issues. Because as i have read in other forums that flashing a firmware will cause me not to receive official updates from samsungs. And how will i know if the firmware is compatible in phone and in my country as well. Because to be honest i got this phone from someone. And i dont even know what country it came from. This is really frustrating coz you know it wont give me updates. It always saying that i already have the latest update which is not . I dont even know if the data is corrupted or firmware like what have you mentioned.

Search and read for how to view your CSC, dial *#1234# in dialler should do it.
If your phone is undamaged in anyway then flashing an official stock rom won't break anything, but will enable OTA updates.
However, if your phone has been messed with then any firmware after EMG4 will break network connection.
Chose the latest firmware for your own country, the country of origin is immaterial.

Heres what i have found out so far
AP: I9300XXEMA2
CP: I9300XXELLA
CSC: I9300JVEMA1
so,what do you think is it ok if i flashed it manually? Pardon me for being a noobie here. I just dont want to messed up my phone dude. And i dont even know if my phone is already messed up with that EMG4 thingy like what have you mentioned. Please help. How do i find out if my phone is undamaged and is ok to manually flash.
If you manually flash the same firmware as you have now, EMA2, then factory reset you won't break anything, but should fix OTA.
OTA will then update to the latest firmware, which is when you will find out if your phone has been fixed. There is no way to tell other than try it.
Search and read about efs v2, it changes a lot of things including sim lock, imei and serial number validation. If any of these things have been repaired then efs v2 will break your network connection.

I beg you pardon regarding this matter sir. Hmm,so how will i know if its compatible to my phone? About the firmware. And if i flash that thing manually will i be able to receive future updates coming off from samsung? One more thing this is really confused me what will i flash? The 4.3 firmware or EMA2? Do i really have to do that efs v2 thingy? What does it do to my phone? Is my phone really broken? And what exactly you mean about breaking my network connection. Im really sorry about this . Im really frustated about the situation. Can you please help mwnwhat should i do?
