I have had my phone for 10 months and I have just started having hardware issues with it. There is a crackinling noise from the speaker during a call and now it says that my sim card is not inserted. i have established that these are 2 common faults with the early S2's so I want to send it off to be repaired before my warranty has run out. The problem I have is that I rooted the phone and I'm currently using Lightning 6.1 rom on it and want to revert it back to official carrier software but as Multiupload is currentl down i cant download the relevant rom from the thread in the development section.
As I am new i have to post my issue here, can anyone please supply me with the correct Official Orange UK Firmware. I made a note of the stock firmware which was on my phone before I changed it. --2.6.35.7-I9100xwke7-cl215725 [email protected]#2
So from what I understand i require a XWKE7 rom.
If anyone can help, either by uploading the rom for me or pointing me in the correct direction of a working download link I would be most greatful.
Cheers Guys

Try checkfus from the market as well.
It lets you quickly find what is the latest firmware from your carrier and then from the web site can download.
Check intratechs original carrier firmware thread and see if his links are working yet.
Good luck.

I have no idea what is happening. The phone is unlocked and installed CWM when I was in China one week ago since I need a different rom so that I can use Chinese service provider's internet. I went back to America yesterday and found verizon wouldn't work then I try to figure that out by myself.
During that time, I flashed VRALI3 baseband with CWM. Verizon's signal came back again when I flashed the stock rom but VRALI3 stays on my phone. That was all I have done to my phone so far. I couldn't find anything about VRALI3 on google and I need help with this. Thank you!!![[[[[[[[[[[Android Version 4.1.1,Baseband Version I605VRALI3, Build: JRO03C.I605VRALJB]]]]]]]]]]]]

HI guys I lost my original Samsung gs3 stock rom, when I flashed a new Rom "checkrom evo v6" I'm a novice in operating android phones, I didn't have a clue about backing up and my warranty being void by customizing my phone. I have searched every website with the hope of downloading stock rom related to my phone to no avail.I'm in desperate need of having my phone unrooted and going back to the way it was. Pls respond in layman terms

Thanks for your response, first my region is ireland, and I did check Sammobile, the firmware link on the website seem to be for registered members only. Tried registering several times but for some strange reason it keeps failing. I would like to know if I could do same download through Samsung kiers and the difference between a stock Rom and a stock firmware? Thanks

I'm on the 3IE network, and running the jellybean 4.1.1, I've it unlocked all these before I rooted my device.
Both 4.1.2 and 4.1.1 (and everything before that) are available on SamMobile for your phone.
I still can't post links so you'll have to de-butcher this, but that'll take you to a listing of firmwares for your country/carrier. Choose the one you want!

Sorry chucky17ng, I didn't read your post properly. For your purposes there is no practical difference between "firmware" and "ROM". And no, if you have rooted then Kies will bomb out saying your device has been modified.
Your best bet is to grab the firmware once your registration goes through (or source it somewhere else), drop the file onto your phone, then flash it with mobile Odin.
There are other ways, but I know that one works.

Hi guys (girls), I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300) and its locked to 3 Three UK (H3G). I've been looking for a why to sim unlock it and there only seems to be two options one pay for a code or downgrade stock firmware to 4.1.1 and unlock it using Service Mode.
I've downgraded it once to 4.1.2 and it worked fine but still can not get service mode to work correctly I've been looking for the stock firmware for 4.1.1 but can not find a working download link anywhere on the internet gone through every page on google looking. I was hoping someone on here could point me in the right direction or maybe have on the computer they can post to the internet somewhere.
The file I need is called: I9300XXDLJ1_I9300H3GDLJ1_H3G.zip
Here is the link to SamMobile but it does not work. (I'm not allowed to post links so you will have to added SamMobile yourself )
firmwares/download/7286/I9300XXDLJ1_I9300H3GDLJ1_H3G/
Any reply or help would be great. I just hope I'm posting this in the correction section.
Update #1
I was just about to posted about broken FW download on SamMobile when the link started download so I'm downloading now and I will update if it works and I can SIM Unlock my phone.
Update #2
I installed Stock Firmware 4.1.1 and tried SIM Unlock using Service Mode and it still failed, I've even tried install patch Kernal and Modem files and it failed as well. I've install latest Stock Firmware 4.3 and I'm just going to pay the £10 to have it unlock to all networks less hassle.
I am looking for the modem for pre KK 4.4.2, I am trying to sim unlock this and found some relevant info as to what to do with an apk called SSU.APK. In a post it is said i have to downgrade the modem baseband, and I am having a bit of a time finding it, the posts i have found have dead mega upload links in them.
