My alpha is the XEH model (unlocked - Hungary), though I´m using it in Spain. Is it possible to flash the Firmware from another country that has the Lollipop upgrade, such as France, on my phone? I´m new to the whole Odin, Kies, Samsung stuff since I come from a Nexus.
Thanks in advance
if you like to flash other FW than from France,than you should wait
antill now is only for France 5.0.2 FW
Just install the france rom from sammobile with odin. I already install it to my t-mobile hungary 850F version. Just follow the instructions.

Hi
I have an SG3 unlocked and I rooted it. Baseband I9300XXLF5, Build IMM76D.I9300XXALF6
I haven't received any update and from Kies it show no firmware update availabel. Is it because I have a rooted device?
I checked in SamMobile but I don't understand which firmare or how I should download.

You can search firmwares by country/region.

I am also a bit confused with the number of firmware out there and wondering which is the latest. The only thing I know is the leaked JB firmware XXDLH4 > XXDLH6 and now the XXDLH7. Its easy to see which is newer but on the original firmware, so many different code and its just confusing

Regarding firmware based on region, I am from Blackberry. Its often ok or should I say OK to download firmware from other service provider as long the phone is the same model. Sometimes, your region or provider may not update their firmware so installing other provider's / region's firmware will actually be better. Some regions just seems to update their firmware much faster than others and providing improvements and fixes faster than others.

Depends on where you live, most updates get to the UK first (even leaks).

Odin Flash FAILS with ITV file (lates Italian firmware). I use md5 file on CSC via Odin.
I will try using the Britain file.
Now that I am rooted of I need to update when JB comes out do I need to unroot?
The unroot process I've seen on YouTube imply a total wipe of the phone. A real hassle.
Any alternative?
Firmware is PDA not CSC.
Dev section Chainfires CF Root no wipe.

Hi guys, just a generic question. What does it mean when the phone is unlocked? I got an unlocked Galaxy S III I9300 and I'm using it on US T-Mobile. Curiously, the phone came with a lot of German T-Mobile bloatware. Are all I9300 not the same? Is it possible to make it completely carrier free? Please enlighten me
It means its not locked to a network .
Branded means its branded by a carrier/network.provider .
Flashing stock rom will remove the branding .
jje
Thanks for the info. Is there a way to update to the stock rom officially through kies or something? And I'm just wondering, are there any carriers in Europe that use stock rom?
Thanks

If you do it through KIES, it will keep all the branding, because it will update the ROM for the same CSC (operator-specific firmware) you have.
You need to first install, using Odin or MobileODIN, an unbranded firmware. All countries have branded and unbranded firmwares.
For instance, an UK unbranded ROM can be downloaded like this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28367295#post28367295
There are unbranded ROMs for all European countries. Use CheckFus to figure out what their CSC code is.
Thanks. So after i flash an unbranded firmware i can get the unbranded rom updates? And it won't wipe my phone right. Does samsung sell the I9300 with unbranded firmware and rom anywhere in Europe? Personally got mine on Amazon.

- It won't wipe your phone, UNLESS you tell it to.
- There aren't that many OTA updates anyway, so don't worry about it. Besides, when an update is released, you can install it on your phone using the Odin or MobileOdin methods long before it is available on the OTA. None of these require you to wipe your phone.
to use Odin you don't need root, but you do if you want to use mobileOdin.
I've flashed over 20 stock unbranded ROMs on my S III and I never did a data wipe on it, and yet it works flawlessly.
Using the top-right panel of CheckFus, you can download ANY CSC you want as long as it is for the GT-I9300. You don't have to keep it locked to a specific CSC. For Germany I believe the unbranded CSC is coded DBT (or something like that).
Hey, thanks for the info. The website for Checkfus Downloader isn't working. Do you have a link to it or can you post it here? From what I've read, CHANGING the CSC will wipe the phone right. Is there any reason for me to change the CSC to UK or something? I don't really care if the default language is German as long as I can change it to English. I just want to get rid of the bloatware and get an unbranded firmware/rom.
EDIT: Found the firmware on SamMobile. Thanks for the DBT tip.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=8&view=6505
I just want to confirm flashing that won't wipe my phone? Because the CSC is different isn't it?
EDIT 2: Read your post again. So flashing the firmware won't actually change the CSC right. I just won't be able to keep the unbranded rom if I update via KIES?

-Ok, so. Basically I can flash any unbranded firmware I want (UK, German, etc...) regardless of the CSC.
-I just have to use Odin everytime I want to update.
-Also, will I lose the unlock?
-Will there be issues with the modem/baseband/CSC incompatibility or something.
P.S. I keep asking if Odin will wipe my phone because I used to own a Galaxy S 1, and Odin was basically the last resort to flash your phone back to stock, and it was always a wipe.
Thank you.
I have a galaxy s 3 which was given to me as a gift. It was on orange, but was unlocked for me so that I can use it on o2.
I have no idea how it was unlocked, but im unsure about upgrading the software through kies.
Can I still upgrade my software through kies to the latest jellybean? Because ive been waiting for the upgrade on my phone and it still hasnt come up. infact i dont have the option to check for updates either
what shall i do? I dont know if ill lose my data or block my phone by upgrading to jellybean via kies
help please
Your phone maybe unlocked but have the same carrier firmware. You need to flash via Odin a unbranded firmware, as if you do update by kies it may lock your phone again.

Helo everybody,
Im stuck a bit with update. I have downloaded the 5.0.2 android for my phone from sammobile but unfortunately odin always fail with the firmwares.
The only thing what i can do is installing back my old firmware, Otherwise not even kies could recognise my phone.
Is there a reason why its now allowing me to update it?
My current android is G850FXXU2BNK3_G850FOJV2BNK5_TUN
And i have tried G850FXXU2COI3_G850FNEE2COI1_NEE (This is for nordic countried...5.0.2)
and also tried G850FXXU2COE4_G850FH3G2COE1_H3G(This is for GB and H3G service provider)
Unfortunately both failed at the end.
I have tried the usual troubleshooting which was described here, but i think i just cannot find the proper 5.0.2 android for my phone.
Is it important which country i choose?
I bought the phone on ebay a year ago, made in Vietname, and the csc is TUN.
Please let me know if you need any more information.
Thank you.

Helo. Sorry im quite noobish with this particular topic. What does xef means? Do you mean have i tried with any French firmware?
No it is just a simple sm-g850f (Tun).
I have put back the tunesian (original) firmware and it works like a charm now again....but still no luck with 5.0.2

Odin is your friend, no need for root or twrp. OTA will work. I live in the Netherlands and dirty flashed the unbranded UK/Irish version on my son's G925F, which had a Nordic Marshmallow version installed. Worked fine. The Vodafone branded version for the Netherlands did not work, but maybe I should have removed the SIM card first, since this was no Vodafone SIM. You can change the language into any language you prefer.

If you go to the firmware page of sammobile you will find the instructions for installing and using Odin. It's not complicated. I did a dirty flash and that went well. All apps and data were unaffected.
