wrong it is not the only differnece. it has another cpu (snapdragon).
I didn't want to believe it myself, so I extracted the neo+ build.prop and I have found nothing but snapdragon mentions
In worst case by flashing it you risk a hard brick

better ask then sorry , because i already download it to my pc and was preparing to Flash it to my phone , know im glad i didnt do it
big thnx

Hdc galaxy i9300 pro
I followed the directions from A YOUTUBE VIDEO titled - How to root the HDC Galaxy S3 i-9300 8.6mm Pro!
I now have supersu and there is also an option to upgrade to supersu pro which apparently is more advanced than the superuser rooting option.
I also have the clockwood mod application installed along with Rom Manager
There is an option to manually install the clockwood mod 2.x or 3.x+,
I have used 'fix permissions' which has made a hell of a difference to the perfomance of my phone.

Unfortunately it's not available in your country because of User not being able to search properly and being too lazy.

[Q] I9305 got Official KitKat, but I9300 will NOT ?

Can someone kindly explain WHY GT-I9300 will not get official KitKat ?
I just went to SamMobile and saw that I9305 got 4.4.4 firmware ! See here
They said I9300 doesn't have enough RAM, what about Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 and Tab 3 10.1 Wi-Fi which received the update ?
If the CPU isn't enough, How came that I9305 and N7100 with the same CPU got updated ?
If the screen size isn't enough, WHY did I9305 with same screen size get update ?

I saw that Samsung don't want to update i9300 to 4.4 because of its 1 GB of RAM that can't handle ****ty touchwiz.Also they said that they will not update any device that is 18(or something like this) months old, Samsung is a shame, we have great developers here, like @arter97 @JustArchi, @qaraqumus that made what Samsung didn't:bring S3 a bit from KitKat flavor

Devices with only 1GB won't get KitKat ? Wth ?
Tab 3 7.0 and Tab 3 10.1 are running KitKat !
Devices with 18 Months old won't be updated, seriously ?
I think it's time to get a Nexus Device and leave that shameful Samsung with its odd rules :silly:

Hi ! Ok first you have to update your phone to 4.3 android that is tge last official built from sammy or you will face efs problem (no network) then root and install cwm (U suggest you philz 's one ) and download and install back to noot rom
Warning : there is no official 4.4 for s3 but arter port touchwiz 4.4.4 for our device with back to noot, that is a heavily debloated rom (lot of sammy app have been deleted for stabilty)
And now there's no 5.0 for s3 let's hope note 2 get it so dev can port it
Cheers !

@yogeshbatra: upgrading firmware to 4.3 as @HawKeyes_XDA said.
Then I recommend a Samsung-based 4.3-ROM, if you like Touchwiz-features or run RAM-intensive games, or otherwise AOKP-5.0. Imho 4.4-ports don't offer obvious advantage (but bugs) and waiting on 5.0-ports is pretty dreaming, because even slim AOKP-ROMs are struggling with 1GB RAM.

Is it possible to flash i9300i on i9300 phone?

Absolutely not, besides the name, these two devices are totally different, the first runs with a Qualcomm CPU and the second one with a Samsung Exynos
Thanks for the the info aaz03
