Hello,
As the name of the thread says, what is the difference between the Korean one and the International one (3G) and if there is any, can I flash same recovery and ROMs?
Yes there is a difference, although extra ram is the only one I can quote of the top of my head. No roms for i9300 are not compatible with Korean s3

Hi Guys,
Just wondering if Galaxy S 2 international version ROM compatible with Tmobile G S2?
The Tmobile's S2 custom ROMs sucks and wondering if I can flash one of these ROMs if possible.
thank you
We need your phone type (i9ooo, etc.) to be able to answer this question.
Need. Moar. Info.
He's talking about the T-Mobile USA T989 as far as I can tell.
You have your own forum for that device because it has nothing in common with the Galaxy S II (despite the name, it isn't really a GS2...)
If you flash anything from the I9100 or I777 forums on a T989, YOU WILL HARDBRICK.
The only device outside of the I9100 forums that can run I9100 firmwares is the AT&T variant (SGH-I777). (Even that requires some work.)

Okay thanks guys.
Hello,
I've bought today S3 and searched XDA-Dev forums for some info regarding custom ROMs etc. I've found two sub-forums; this one and one for carrier specific variants of S3, my Galaxy is from European (Polish) T-Mobile distribution and my question is - can I use ROMs, Kernels, Radios etc. only from "T-Mobile Galaxy S III Android Development" topic or any other as well?
Please forgive this maybe stupid question...
Cheers!
The US-versions have another device ID, so they are pretty easy to tell apart.
Settings->About device->Model number will tell you what model you got, this forum is about the GT-I9300 (with or without 'T' suffix)
Hardwarewise the international and the US-version are vastly different so flashing one's ROM on the other will (soft)brick the device and potentially cause harm.
Thank you for clearing it up, I've checked and my model number is in fact GT-I9300.

Welcome home, you're in the right place
Which ROM support E210K?
Thanks.
Wrong section. Mods please move to Q&A! But what's E210K
Pozdrav

The E210K is the korean Exynos Quad + 2GB of ram + LTE version of the SGS3 marketed as the "SHV-E210K Galaxy S III LTE"
And to answer your question OP, none of them, this is the section for the I9300 the international version, so any roms here most likely will brick your device.
Dear All,
I have been facing an issue of slow gprs on my Samsung Galaxy S3 SHV-E210K due to edge network and HSDPA network not being shown while gprs is connected(instead, G and 3G are shown). The speed has dropped to as low as 1/6 of the original (which I get on my Nokia C5 phone).
I have a strong feeling that if I convert this korean version of Galaxy S3, I will be able to solve the problem. Please help me converting it completely to international version like Galaxy S3 I9305 because the configuration is exactly the same.
I dont know how to root, how to install custom rom, where can they be found. But a step by step guide will surely help me a great deal. I have heard that this is the best site for all the android forums. Please post the complete solution as soon as possible.

It's very simple just install a custom recovery (ClockWorkMod Recovery) build your own rom with android kitchen using original rom from i9300 and boot.img from galaxy shv-e210k. that's it.

@kasingy: I was able to convert it successfully to i9300 using HD Revolution ROM for SHV -E210K but the problem of slow gprs persists. the data sign show G in place of E in INDIA. I think it is due to only 900Hz frequency available in this rom where as Indian phones support 850Hz for edge network..
I have tried flashing various modem.bin files for i9300 to it but didnt get signals.
What to do please help. Will be very very grateful to you!
One more thing, if you are able to solve this, many Indian customers of SHV-E210k could get relief!!
Is it posible?
Is converting to the international version even possible??
I'm using a s3 3g korean which known as Sk 3G or shw-m440s. I've searched for its custom recovery but nothing found there's only for s3 international i9300 or other, not shw-m440s. I'm intend to install by gt-i9300's one. So anyone can help me to install?
There is a thread in general forum about your model, the hardware is different so nothing for the i9300 will work.
