on to my i9200 indian phone plzzzz can anyone tell if its ok if not what will happen plzzz

There are lots of stories of losing wifi or mobile data when a kitkat rom is flashed. Unless you really need it, I recommend you just wait for an ota
Flashing kitkat is not reversible, the only way you can install a 4.2 rom after installing kitkat is a custom rom like megalomaniacs v12 rom.

That v12 version is of january 2014 wats so special about v12

If you flash your phone to kitkat and it screws something up, that rom is the best way to get into an almost stock 4.2.2 rom. The Megkat v2 also works great.
Flashing doesnt go without risks, Im just suggesting a backup plan
The v12 rom is july 19, the thread was made on january so it has gone through 12 evolutions since then

After installing stock rom can I use same vceroot.tar file to root it which I used year ago to root ??????

Just install a custom recovery like Philz from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588661
Then flash the SuperSU zip from here: http://download.chainfire.eu/452/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip

[Q] removing splashscreen

Hi All,
I'm new to the android community moving from a iPhone. Now I purchased the Samsung galaxy s3 2 weeks ago. I was wondering is there any way to remove the carrier splashscreen on boot and shut down screen. I purchased this in the UK from the carrier three. . and to be honest I can't stand it the damn splashscreen. I have rooted my device but just can't find a way to remove the splashscreen.
also i heard there's a way to remove the bloatware from it, it seems that when looking at my ram using its never below 400 despite me going to task manger and clearing the memory. I'm assuming its all the bloatware on the phone that's using it up right?
Would really appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction.
Thanks
U can root ur phone,with cf root,then make a full wipe via cwm recovery (incl. formating system and boot) and then flash unbranded latest firmware for the UK.. and that's it

check your device status in setting >about device >status
Is it normal or modified?
Check latest firmware for your region on www.Sammobile.com and after download, flash it via odin.
Usually restores are of custom roms

Cheers. Can I still get ota updates when I'm rooted.. or is it best to unroot..
OTA updates will most probably fail on rooted phone. Unroot it or just update firmware using odin.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
You can't get OTA updates when rooted. Find the last modem on SamMobile and flash it via Odin.

[Q][I9300]Update to 4.3 with Mobile Odin Pro?

I saw that the 4.3 JB update is available for my phone/region. I would like to use Mobile Odin Pro to do the update, and add root in the process. Where can I download the OTA file for this update?
My phone details:
Android 4.1.2
Baseband: I9300XXELLA
Build number: JZO54K.I9300XXEMA2
Thank you
Stock roms are posted on sammobile .
I saw on sammobile the file is about 900mb while the OTA file is about 400mb. I was hoping to get the OTA one.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk
OTA is not usually posted .
I took out a premium subscription at sammobile to try and download the file faster, but it still shows 12 hours to complete

The i9300 doesn't have knox. Either you are mistaken or have another model, in which case you've posted in the wrong forum.

Hi mate!
1. WRONG SECTION! There's a mega great Q&A Thead to ask for your questions , it's the Development section... . We need to contribute to keep our forum clean and neat . Next time use Q&A Thread please.
2. The ROM what we prefer it's NO rom, there is NOT the best rom or the fastest... All those things depend on your own usage. Try yourself some ROMs and then choose your favourite.
3. The easy way to root your STOCK rom is flashing a Philz Kernel or using their SUfile.zip
4. Best rom?fastest? what the f*** you smoke? or such question are forbbiden!

Use root master to root your phone
Can someone give me stock i9100TMUKF1 firmware?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Free mobile app
First of all, you are using the jelly bean kernel. Only the ics kernel had the super brickbug. You can root your phone easy by using framaroot(search in google and click xda link) OR you can install a custom kernel that auto roots your phone. The link that was given by viper won't brick your phone as it is designed for jelly bean. As long as you install the kernel properly, you will be fine. I am only allowed to say that the rom I found good was slim saber rom by Fusionjack.

AFAIK PhilZ root files are safe to use and you can flash those via STOCK recovery.
You can use your correct Kernel (root+Philz CWM) too from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...lz-cwm6-stock-kernel-cwm6-root-exfat-t1877270

If this is gb rom, forget about it. No links exist. If you want ics, you should avoid it due to brickbug kernel. Your best bet is to update to jelly bean or to use some other custom rom.
Also, i think u gave us the csc version as i see no firmware having phone firmware code. The actually code of the stock ROM (according to internet results) should be i9100bokgi
I also need jelly bean ROM but only
T-Mobile UK ROM... my device is TMOBILE and I m using other rom on my device

Use the other link first (not the sammobile one because sammobile has really slow download speeds)

Probably problem with your isp. Links definitely working for me. Last option is to use neatrom by sale (which is based on stock jb 4.1.2 firmware) but with root and with debloating options. Sorry, can't upload the file as it will take too long (internet upload speeds over here are darn slow on ADSL2+).
Here is the link to the thread anyway: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-neatrom-lite-extralite-themed-aroma-t1569686

Thanks for helping but I want to tell u that link u had provided was for ICS and i want T-mobile Jelly bean firmware...
