Go to sammobile.com and download the latest firmware for your country. Follow the guide in general forum sticky thread on how to flash it with Odin. Factory reset in recovery.

Mmm,, There is something suspicious about the firmware code you posted it should start 19300I for the international not 19300Z in fact I have never seen that firmware code (maybe I am wrong and somebody else can enlighten me )
Edit: Some of the firmwares don't have the I after 19300 but still not seen that firmware code before
Are you sure it's a genuine S3 international?

ZS in your coding most likely refers to Taiwan, China or Hong Kong, check Sammobile for these countries see if you can find a version for your phone there where the code starts i9300ZS****

Hello
My sgs2 is an unbr./unl. O2 from the Uk now working on vodafone PT, in portugal
I have read thoroughly on the given instructions on the dev forum side and was able to flash in firmware XWKE7 - baseband XXKE4 using Odin 1.85 and also root it with superoneclick (thks again guys!), this is a small victory for me as I am a total newbie to android
Just was´nt still able to put away the yellow triangle but will try again later
Maybe I missed something somewhere else and this is newbie issues, but after reading carefully on those long (gladly!) posts I could not find out how to install a CSC file, the phone returns "unknown" and the only one available to install with the command *#272*Device IMEI# is of course O2U
So my questions are:
- what CSC file should be more appropriate for this firmware setup, for PT and/or vodafone PT ?
- How can I install it ?
thks in advance
I would just install a stock XEU(=UK) firmware, seems to be the fastest to be updated, you can find the downloads in the dev section
Hi,
I'm facing a slightly similar problem of unknown CSC & I would like to know how to install the CSC specific for my region. I have SGSII with the following info:
PDA: I9100JPKG3
Phone: I9100XXKG1
CSC: Unknown
Kernel version:
2.6.35.7-I9100JPKG3-CL388633
[email protected] #2In fact, I found on a separate thread the CSC file "csc_xsg_i9100ojpkg1" & I would use Odin to install in on my device. Can anyone help on that please & explain to me the steps? Will I lose any data?
Thanks...

Hi ninogui,
You should go with XEU for Portugal.
Regarding the yellow triangle, I ordered a jig from amazon uk to reset the flash counter and get rid of the yellow triangle. It's unexpensive and usefull to have around.
Around €10 with shipping included to Portugal.

Thanks JJEgan,
I checked the link but I couldn't find any trace for the JPKG3 firmware! I only found JPKG2 & JPKG5. Is the JPKG3 an official firmware? Will it be OK if I flash the "csc_xsg_i9100ojpkg1" file using Oden & kept the JPKG3? Or do you recommend I update to JPKG3 entirely?
you can flash the csc only if you are happy with the firmware you have.
If you want the latest official firmware you need to upgrade to xkg5.

I guess you haven't heard? That's because megaupload has been shut down. In most of whatever mysterious posts you're talking about, the later posts in that thread will probably note that the devs whose work was hosted on shut down sites like megaupload are looking for other hosting sites to upload their files to.
You'll have to be patient.
Sounds like we're in the same boat @sout13 :-/
My Swype expired on my current ROM so I am desperate for any valid ROM atm.... as long as it's stable and compatible with South Africa.
Q: Any idea where I can any valid ROM ... even a custom one? Needs to be Gingerbread.
Am currently running:
PDA: I9100 XWKF3
PHONE: I9100 XX KE7
CSC: I9100XEUKD1
Any help will be greatly appreciated

just watch out for sammobile.com firmwares. they heve new bootloaders and if you flash these firmwares you then have to flash an old bootloader to reset binary counter and get rid of the yellow triangle.
Can anybody help me to identify which firware is this and where is this from?? I brought it from Dubai but in order to root it, i cant find this firmware in any of the XDA forums.

You don't need to know what firmware it is to root it. Just follow the stickies in the development section by flashing recovery with odin, then a rooted rom.
Also make sure your phone model number is GT-I9300. If it's not, you don't have the international version.
You can use Chainfire's CF-root, regardless of the firmware version,

Connect to the Keis, then check your firmware version,
see the code given after the CSC in the bracket is your region,
eg: PDA:LE9 / PHONE:LE8 / CSC:LE9 (XSG)
XSG is the code for UAE,
I think you have purchased the phone from an unautharized dealer, normally the phones (SGS3) shipped in the Middle East are with the above mentioned version as my phone has got.

Thanks for your help. Yes, the phone is not from an authorized dealer. Kies says the firmware as:
PDA:LF5 /PHONE:LF5/ CSC:LE3 (EUR)

Alternatively use CheckFus. For Peru it returns exactly the firmware you posted.
