I don't know if 4.0.4 exist for the S3.You should probably flash the 4.1.2 with Odin.
Download the 4.1.2 from samfirmwares.com

then you dont need a CM ROM, you need stock ICS, and I dont think you can get it here, you should google about that. You also coulg go to a technical service, its a bad problem but it has a solution, It happened to me but with an S1
be careful
if you flashed any new rom and your efs become v2 don't flash any old efs v1 modem you will lost your imei
backup first
this what happened to me before but i have advanced box in Samsung so i don't care

Hello guys, I'm new to this forum.. So I was searching the general help for s5830i phone thread, and didn't find the answer so my problem is that I can't turn on my phone, whenever I press the turn on/off button it just shows me this text: Samsung GALAXY Ace GT-5830i then it goes off and then it shows me the same text again. I did try to factory wipe it, but when I try, it starts, it "factory wipes it" for about 1-2 minutes then it goes off and the same text again. So my phone is 832 MHz CPU if that matters or not, I think it has ~250 ram, I can't be for sure, since I can't turn on my device. If You have anymore questions, write in the comment section, I'll try to help you as much as I can.

Download XXEMG4 firmware from sammobile and flash it using ODIN (Same way you did for 4.3)
Did you do a nandroid bk up? Restore that? When you flashed 4.3 it's changes efs. So to fix network simply flash mg4 or newer modem. I use mj3 modem that comes with 4.3 mg9 firmware.
Please refer and use help threads which have already been made on these topics.

Looking For 4.1.2
In fact I was looking for a solution to switch back to Custom 4.1.2 as it was the perfect ROM so far for me.
I have downloaded it from Sammobile but after Installing it via Odin I am unable to see any network and the Phone's IMIE is changed. I would greatly appreciate anyone to come up with solution for that....
Thanks everyone for being so kind...

Check your IMEI number, wheather it was changed to 0049XXXX - I have had the same problem. I downloaded from Sammobile firmware v4.3 and flash your phone with odin. My IMEI and network connection was restored. Looks like Samsung does not like us to downgrade the firmwares.

Solution.....
Hello guys....
I am very thankful to the xda forum and all the members who helped me to get through a serious problem..
Recently I installed 4.3 Leaked version on my GT-I9300 and the ROM proved to be worst ROM of life. So I decided to go back to 4.1.2.
I installed the custom ROM via Odin but I confronted a serious issue, when I was finished the installation I found that there was no network at all... Samsung's official told me that it is impossible to reverse the Android version...
I had no clue what to do. I flashed many ROMs but no solution at all. My IMIE was also kinda jumbled..
Many guys said it is EFS issue... But it is not EFS issue...
It is all because of different Modem issue.. all you need to do is just install a clean custom ROM from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/ and Install the patched modem... you are done..
So here is the solution:
1. Download your desired CUSTOM ROM for your Country from Sammobile...
Link http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/
2. Install the ROM via Odin
3. Root it and Install your favorite recovery.
4. Install the Patched MG4 Modem Zip in Recovery Mode. Link https://www.dropbox.com/s/geispctijp...9300XXEMG4.zip
You are done....
This problem is all about MODEM version, so I don't think if EFS tricks are involved here.....
Finally credits go to all the XDA Members who put their heart and soul to present all the required guidance for me to be able to downgrade to lower Android Version.. I have only compiled the whole stuff into a single thread....
Thanks,,,
Plenty of solutions....

Dear sir,
Actually the problem is not finding the solutions but finding the right solution.
Worth members of XDA Forum post a lot of solutions for a particular problem and thus newbies like me get even more confused... So it definitely takes some time for us to come to a point when we are able to get the desired results.
Sometimes, we are not able to clarify our queries.....
As in my problem only a Modem was required while I was looking for EFS solutions!
After Flashing the MG4 modem my battery life has become worst. I don't know if it is because of the Modem.. but whenever my phone is on airplane mode then the battery remains at the same percentage but while on network my battery keeps on draining without even texting or calling
