I have a question, does Triangle Away support the Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo (GT-I9300I) (Dual-Sim)? If not, is there any other way of reseting the binary counter?
You can reset baniry by installing stock rom

Without flashing Stock Rom ,it is not possible even if you reset binary counter with triangle away it will get automatically incremented when you reboot the phone.

Hello Guys, i have a few questions for you.I had bought my galaxy s3 in august from greece, and i actually live in romania using cosmote(cosmote is the network am i using).My phone got version 4.0.4 ICS but rooted with CF-Root with odin metod.My flash counter got 1 and my phone status modified.I had just entered sammobile and saw that there appeared JB 4.1.1 For SGS3 Cosmote Romania but it didn't appeared for SGS3 greece eur.Is there any problem if i flash the cosmote romania firmware over my actually firmware and over the root, and is there any way i can get flash counter 0,binary status official and unroot my device in the same time? Thanks for reading my long post and i hope you can help me.Cheers!
You can flash the Rom without any problem, but you will lose root.

But the flash counter
Yes, but the flash counter? I want to restart it to 0
For that you need triangleaway app. You can buy it from play store or download for free from chainfire's thread

yes, i know that application but first i must install this app and reset my counter, after that i flash my rom with odin pc? If i do like that i will have flash counter 1 again.
Your count will increase only when you root the new rom

You use triangle away now . This will reset your counter to 0. After that flash the new rom

ok i've gone through the threads and it stated that triangle away won't work on custom roms so the only way is i have to reflash back to stocks firmware

- On my SGS3/Note2/etc, Download Mode says my System is modified, and Triangle Away does not reset it
Triangle Away attempt to reset this status and block it from coming back, but it depends on the firmware. It does work on some (not all) stock firmwares. Resetting this value doesn't work on custom firmwares!
- On the SGS3/Note2/etc, System->Settings->About device->Status still shows "Modified"
This is outside the scope of Triangle Away. The "system" status is not even always resettable in the bootloader. If you are going for warranty, you need to also reflash a full stock firmware and wipe your device. If they boot up your device and find root apps, you're not going to get any warranty anyway. If you do such a full stock reflash and wipe, the "Modified" value will go away.

Hah.. thanks the above thread is very useful and i just flash back to the original firmware and it works everything works fine now.
So if i flash custom rom i don't have to take note on the counter 1st, just if the phone needs to be sent back to samsung then i'll just flash ORI firmware and proceed triangle away.

Hi
Just got my first Android device . It's a GT-I9300 with Android 4.1.1 (JRO03C.I9300XXDLJ5).
Apparently the seller, updated the stock version to 4.1.1. I found out my version is an official Samsung version (India).
I checked the binary download count and it's 1. The device status is modified. I don't know why
From the short search I made it seems flashing an official ROM should not increase the flash count and set the device status to modified. Is there a method to reset the counter and set the status to normal again?
Thanks,
Shanti
He probably rooted it to unlock it then to sell it on. You need to root it use triangle away then flash again without root. I recommend mobile odin

Root, use traingle away, flash stock and wipe.
Hello, i m trying to keep my phone in "official" state to recive ota upgrade, untill i was using 4.1.2+cf-autoroot everythhink worked ok
i resetted status with triangleaway and allowed tracker to run to stay in "official" status, and i recived ota upgrade to 4.3 (italian nobrand)
After upgrading to 4.3 i lost root so i re-rooted with cf-autroot but this time i can't stay in "official" status and i dont know whi because everythink
is the same... i used triangle away to reset again flashcounter... but i got "personalized" status and not "official"
so maybe problem can be the stock recovery that cf-aturoot flashed after rooting... maybe samsung upgraded it from 4.1.2
can some one provide the stock "ready to flash" recovery of the 4.3 firmware ugmk6 ? So i can make a test to understand if problem is that or maybe samsung make new kind of check to discover phone status...
Thanks & sorry for my english.
You do not post questions in development .
Works with the 4.3 recovery.img and triangle away play edition download stock firmware an unzip this flash recovery.img with mobilodin and use triangle away play edition
