I am new to Galaxy S3...
I wish to root it and Put custom Roms...
Previously I was on HTC sensation….
Like HTC can I Put Custom ROM on S3?
Because all ROMS are saying based on XXDLH Firmware. Mine is the Indian version XXBLH1
AP- XXBLH1
CP-DDLH1
CSC- DDBLG2…
Can I flash any custom ROms or should I change firmware with Odin?
Pls Help..
Thank You
There are no preliminary firmwares in order for you to root

Just root your phone then flash anything that you want.

dont worry dude. I too have an Indian version. First root and then flash any rom of ur choice. Just backup the rom from recovery once you are rooted. That will help you in critical situation.

Please don't forget the EFS folder. And put it somewhere safe (e.g. on a thumb drive and file it) because it's the single not really recoverable part of your phone's filesystem and necessary for all communication. Recovery is easier than paying Samsung for restore

Can I install this on my Galaxy S3??
I9300??? If so yes. If not no. Sammobile.com is a good place to go for firmware.

Can you give me the link of the latest firmware?
Just download nb6 .stock firmware is all the same to me. I don't use "stock" unless I have to. Why don't you try a custom firmware rom like allianceROM or neat ROM ect ect . you need to be rooted and have custom recovery to install these roms though.
Just releasing a pre rooted deodexed BOC6 base for the N910G. It has busybox and init.d support plus secure storage set to false.
You will need the modem and probably the bootloader from the boc6 base, I'll probably upload them later. Anyone is welcome to use it as a base, just dropping it as there isn't one yet

Thanks , I am downloading it right now
This base seems to be smaller than the full stock ROM , any apps removed ?
also can we have a dpi changer (I tried the one on playstore but they are FCying) and 3minit battery for this base if its possible ?
Thanks
should be possible

never flash BL with TWRP always prefer Odin flash, Flashing BL via TWRP can hardbrick your device.
May I request somebody to upload the odin flashable bootloader... I have no idea how to flash aboot.mbn provided in oyher thread.
Thanks in advance.
Hey guys!
OK, I've been waiting for this.
So if I grab the India firmware, flash with Odin, flash this all good?
I have the Australian G version.
Technically, if I flash the India firmware, I should be able to use the F custom roms with the other custom kernels?
All we needed was the bootloader right? World's our oyster Yeah? Haha.
Thanks guys.
Can I use with my 910F? Thanks.

If you want just a stock prerooted boc3 base for the n910f I can upload one but there are plenty of custom roms out there for the n910f. I just dropped this base for other devs to use as there wasn't a lollipop zips for the n910g. I think Dr ketan has released one now

Not sure exactly what Sammy have done but on lollipop if the modem and base don't match the rom won't boot. This means for the time being you cant flash lollipop n910f roms on the n910g and vice versa. Hopefully someone will fix it soon

I didn't intend supporting the rom as I don't have the device it's just a base for other devs to use. If no one makes a custom rom for you guys I'll add a few mods to it
If I flash the stock India via Odin, new bootloader and modem, and I have an issue or want to wait for more custom roms, can I go back to kitkat rom?

Yes , don't think anyone has had an issue downgrading
I just flashed the sammobile stock firmware and rooted but I can't get 3minit to work. I see you have to decompile etc. Anyway to zip align and deox stock rom semi easily? Haha.
Thanks guys.
Hello,
If I get an odin flashable tar from G900F or G900FG Google edition, will they work on T-Mobile galaxy s5 without any modification?
In other words, are tar stock roms cross flashable between these 3, G900T, G900F and G900FG?
I'm using my T-Mobile galaxy s5 on T-Mobile network.
Thanks
Complete firmwares no. Pull it apart tar just the cache boot and system images then yes

AFAIK yes.
Download unbranded firmware for your region and flash it with Odin on PC via USB cable. If you flash the CSC file (not Home_CSC, your data will be wiped.
So backup everything you do not want to lose.
