Provide me with ANY working ROM.Thanks!.
Hi De Da, I have PMed you a link to the instructions for installing the stock asia backup you downloaded but if you want to get a rom that works well on your phone we'll need to know the region you bought the phone in and preferably the software version number it was running (eg: 1.31.401.3) so we can suggest the closest matched version for your original firmware (radio, baseband, ect). Without some information about your phone version and what state it is in how can anyone help you.

Hi everyone, I am new here. I just returned i9100g for a i9100. Anyways as I look for the i9100 firmware at sammobile.com, there are tons of ICS available. Which one will I install?
Also I am in Bangladesh, however we get mixed region phones: Sometimes from Malaysia, Singapore, France, etc. How do I know which region I have, so it can guide to install the proper ICS.
I installed XXLPJ, everything works well, however I noticed that just like my initial i9100g, whenever I use the voice to setup alarm, it doesn't work. I fixed this problem when I installed the proper region firmware for my phone, which was French at that time. The problem is I don't know which region of the phone this actually is.
Any idea?
Thank you
I dont think different regional firmwares will make any difference in your alarm settings too...
you can check the firmware information by dailing *#1234#
ROM selection
you can have a look for the language supported by that rom, you can also go for custom rom, language information was given there that it support these many language.
Also i am agree with "zaheedahmed" that "regional firmwares will make any difference in your alarm settings" i guess this the bug with that version of ROM, so it better to upgrade your ROM.
Thanks for your responses. What do I need to look after after for the latest firmware, android version? Cause there are tons of 4.0.3

I live in China and I bought a GT-I9300 yesterday.
I noticed the phone was out of date when I got home so I started the update process, the first update went smoothly the phone rebooted and I checked if there was any other updates and there was one. The update downloaded successfully and rebooted to install and got to 31% and failed out and rebooted the phone.
At first I thought it was because the phone was partially set up to show that it wasn't a fake phone, so I did a factory reset and started the whole process over, and the same thing the update fails out at 31%.
The phone suggested I use Kies, but Kies says my phone's current firmware version is not supported via kies.
So I took to the internet to try to manually update, I spent the better part of yesterday and today trying to figure out everything about this phone but I just can't seem to get a 100% conclusion on anything so I don't want to try flashing anything and possibly messing up my phone. There just seems to be 50 different models that all have different roms and I don't want to flash the wrong one.
Info from Kies: Current firmware version: PDA:LF1 / PHONE: LEF / CSC: LF1 (XXX)
From my phone:
Model Number: GT-I9300
Android Version: 4.0.4
Baseband Version: I9300XXLEF
Build Number: IMM76D.I9300ZSALF1
Part of the problem was the guy was selling both the Western Europe model and the Hong Kong model, I was told I was getting the Hong Kong but he may have given me the Western Europe model by mistake.
From what I have read XX means means Western Europe model but another website said ZS was Hong Kong? I don't know if I go off the Baseband version or the build number.
Then I thought I will just root the device, slap CMW on it do a backup and then slap CM10.1 on it and call it a day. But following this rooting guide I need to know which version of the phone I have first.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671969
Also CM10.1 only has 1 I9300 (International) build is that a universal I9300 ROM that is safe to use on my phone?
Long post but the help is appreciated!
So I think I figured out why this isn't updating, and I think it might be rooted as I see the SuperSU app installed. I don't really care if my device is rooted or not. SuperSU has a "Clean up feature" but it isn't uninstalling and removing root.

I'd suggest you return the phone to the guy and ask for a completely clean no root version of the phone. But if that's too much of a hassle right now you can just flash stock firmware using Odin.

Right I would just flash to stock with Odin, but that was part of my question. Which stock rom do I use? Or does it even matter and any ROM will work, I think I have the Hong Kong model but I am not completely sure and I don't want to risk bricking the phone with the wrong ROM.
Your phone does seem to be an International version which means any ROM except the China ROMs will work.
The reason Kies will not update the phone is because the CSC is XXX which is pretty strange but seeing how the phone came rooted someone has been playing.
Do you want to use the phone in HK or CN? and do you need Chinese input?

I use it in China, I rarely to HK. I don't need the Chinese language on the phone although it would be nice as I am trying to learn Chinese, but I could live without it.
Thanks for your help! Much appreciated.

United Kingdom 2012 December 4.1.2 I9300XXELL4 I9300OXAELL4

The ROM you are going to flash should be ok, if you ever need Chinese input then flash any ZS or you can just install Google pinyin IME.
BTW If flashing the ROM you was going to, does work ok, then your better off having the International version than the Chinese version anyway, since you are not stuck to waiting for Chinese ROMs or installing hybrid ROMs.
Yeah I am having trouble finding a download that will work here in China and my VPN connection is down so it will be sometime before I can even download this ROM. samfiles or samfirmware can't remember the website, is blocked in China, hotfile.com is blocked which seem to be about the only 2 websites that host all the firmware downloads.
EDIT: Speak of the devil, my VPN service just released an update for their connection app, I am downloading the ROM now. Should be able to report back in around an hour and let you all know.
EDIT: Spoke to soon, VPN issues again.
would someone be willing to download I9300XXELL4_I9300OXAELL4_BTU.zip for me and throw it up on a dropbox account or some other website besides hotfile.com I am having trouble downloading this file from China.

Yay, I was able to get my VPN connection to stay on long enough to download the firmware and I was able to successfully apply 4.1.2 Jelly Bean to my phone!
Thanks for all your help!
Kies now reads: PDA:LL4 / Phone: LL4 / CSC: LL4
I have a htc one m8 AT&T version. It is completely stock but i plan to unlock and flash soon. my question is a firmware based question. My phone has 4.4.2 kitkat and software version 1.58.502.1 (firmware version?). Which rom will work with my firmware version?

Thanks for everyone's help!!!
Neither link is going to help you. You want a software 1.xx based ROM, but you will see the first thread you linked just goes to the 2nd link (if you look under the "Download section" it refers you to the main thread, which only has links to 2.xx based ARHD).
Either you will need to find an older version of ARHD (either previously posted, or ask for it) or update your firmware. Really, the 2nd option is preferable as you will find that most ROMs have moved on and require the newer firmware.
Hi baes. I need some help, two weeks ago, I lost my SO. Since that, it's a nightmare, I can't find the correct firmware of my XT1023. After 5 days testing like a lot of custom roms (i cant donwload cuz my network is pretty crappy) I remmember that maybe in some placer of my pc maybe i'll find a SS of my original SO. And I did it. But I cant see the version, just the baseband version (and that's why I come here) I need a ROM for the XT1023 that have this baseband "MSM8610BP_18033.4614.45.00R RETUSA_AWS_CUST". I so sorry 'bout my bad english, Im from Venezuela.
Please, please just help me :c

Hi Everyone,
Apologies in advance, i'm a noob at all this but please read my post. I just need some help
Recently i've attempted to install a custom ROM on my Galaxy S8 ( SM-G950F ) and in the 1st attempt, managed to somehow get the phone into a boot loop. I went on to flash the original firmware via ODIN, which was successful and the phone was back to original, but now i have an issue when trying to use Google Pay, or Netflix. It keeps saying the phone has been modified and not allowing me. Is there a way around this at all? I don't understand why it's now not working since it's back to stock firmware. If anyone can help me out that would be greatly appreciated. I'm willing to provide some $$ if needed.
Thanks all in advance.

What do you mean 7 or 8 number from imei? The latest software is used mate that is correct.
7 and 8 number from imei is know as Country code , so look for Firmware for Country code you can also look for 4 file firmware for your device which you can search on the internet or try with DBT version is Germany but mostly German firmware can fix some issue . Good Luck
Hello, I have the same issue. I Just flash latest ROM for my Samsung Galaxy s9 plus from sammobile website. It was DBT version (UK, Germany region) with patched Odin. Can you help me how to get google pay working? It keeps saying the same that device has been rooted or modified.
