Why would you change S3 to S4 ? There is nothing really revolutionary in the S4 compared to S3. A bit better, CPU, more RAM and FullHD 1080 screen resolution, and..... NO FM RADIO!!! Even the design has almost not changed. I would rather wait for the new S5 (which is rumored to have solid Alumminium metal case) or even S6. :p
[Galaxy S III General] kornelius1982:
The answer is in your post :D

double RAM, double resolution, double GPU and CPU. Who really cares about FM radio, 1-2% of S3 users?

sorry for off :)
[Galaxy S III General] acidemic:
As I don't play hardcore games on the phone, I don't see any significant advantages of S4 over the S3, 720 HD resolution on 4.8" display for me is enough at the moment, RAM could be more but still enough... Yes, S4 is better than S3, but it's not worth change from one to another as the user experience won't change dramatically. :D

Ram does make a difference in general use .

No need to restore emg4 efs after flash, right? On another forum a guy said that turning back to emg4 from emg6 he loosed imei... again.

thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III General] boomboomer:
It might and you've nothing to lose. Make sure the stock rom is a full official one, EMG2 or later. An efs backup would have saved you all the trouble though.

[Galaxy S III General] PIRATA!:
Hi!

I have a problem with an S3 of a friend with the actual last version of 4.1.2 fw for his operator in my country (Italy & H3G).

The firmware it's XELLA, and we have read that it might have problems with the memory issue, so I works like to upgrade it to a generic Italian one that on samfirmware is XEMG4.

Is this enough good as updated version, or is it better to use a foreign fw as this one here in this thread?

[Galaxy S III General] boomboomer:
You shoudn't but always backup your efs before flashing anything, that includes a stock ROM.

You might have signal issues if the included modem is wrong for your country. but can flash an EMG4 modem over the top if necessary.

Used triangle away twice till the counter was 0 and the 2 thingies were showing as original when checked in dl mode.. then used odin to flash stock firmware from my region. after which i used csc from google play to confirm I was on right csc and then used kies to update firmware. took bloody long for it to update through kies, but when I woke the IMEI was back to what it was.

Hope this helps anyone who had the imei corrupt issue.

well i just found a BUG on the new MH1, when i change the font type. it actually changed but when i long press the home key to end apps , it just stuck and i had to pull the battery out and turn it on again. when it was done i change the font type back to default but the battery % was still on choco cooky.... i tried changing the font to different type of font but it was still on choco cooky, then i restart the phone and it worked...... so that nakes me think the Font Type make my phone stuck..... that suck.. going back to MG4.

I think you are wrong. I have the unbranded S3 from Chile and my phone came with the I9300UBEMA1 ROM. So is official from Samsung. If you see in Chile the unbranded and the carrirer ROM are I9300UB

Someone with the MH2 Rom can check if the Rom is patched with Bluebox App.

Stock firmware I9300XXEMH1 - only Google Maps 6.14 ?

I am using the firmware I9300XXEMH1 (Android 4.1.2) in Germany.

After flashing the firmware I could not get the lastest Google Maps 7.x.

Currently I have Version 6.14 installed.

My previous firmware was I9300XXEMG4 DBT (Germany) and I had

no problems with the installation of Google Maps 7.1.

Did somebody recognize the same problem?

wich one is better the MG6 vs MG4?
[Galaxy S III General] SignetSphere:
I suggest that you flash MH1 since it has the Master Key Vulnerabilities patched. MG6 and lower are still being exploited in the wild so if a hacker exploits your device then he can remotely control your device without you knowing.

Recovery CSC applied is different from firmware CSC!?!

After some flash (4.1.2 PHE, PHN, BTU and now ITV) on my S3 ITA NoBrand, everything is OK.

I was happy for the MH1 PHN version, but it seems like the modem was not good here in Italy... I was not able to surf on the internet very fast... everything seems to be ok now with the ITV firmware MG4. But...

From *#1234# key combination, I see the right version for firmware and CSC (ITV).

Why, when I start the phone in recovery, it's saying multiCSC applied..... and then it select the PHE csc????

How can I reset to CSC right for my phone? (ITV)

I've flashed the MH1 firmware.

So far, I haven't noticed any visual differences. The only bad thing is that you cannot turn the shutter (or focus) volume off whilst using the camera. I love taking pictures so that's a big negative from me. The speed of the firmware seems to have improved too (coming from MD3); although this might have happened because I cleared the cache before flashing.

I'm sorry I haven't been able to do a proper review, guys, but that's it from my side on this firmware! I'll flash 4.3 when Samsung give it to us and I'll give that one a proper review!

[Galaxy S III General] SignetSphere:
However if you are rooted you can simply rename Shutter.ogg to Shutter.ogg.bak in the system root>system>media>audio>ui via a root explorer. Same goes for the autofocus.ogg :) Also MH1 patches the Master Key Vulnerabilities so flashing this firmware is really recommended :D This firmware also has an additional bloatware included (Samsung GO) and it's exclusive to those who uses this firmware on Netherlands (not for us flashaholics lol) but can be easily removed if you are rooted.

No need, either mobile odin or triangle away will remove the flash history. You'll have to have stock recovery and kernel installed, otherwise the flash count will again be registered on the next boot.

did this version fix the intermittent Wi-Fi drop-out

Hello all,

After struggling with WiFi dropping out after the previous Samsung update, I switched to LiquidSmooth 2.8 (based on 4.2.2), which fixed WiFi, but broke Bluetooth.

Can anyone tell me if the issue with intermittent drop-outs of WiFi has been fixed with the current Samsung firmware version?
[Galaxy S III General] boomboomer:
Are you sure that is a bug? I've had wifi drop outs a couple of times in the past year - restarting the router (not the phone) cures it.
[Galaxy S III General] kitgerrits:
I think it's a bug

This only happened after the update whilst the phone was on my desk, 4m from the Access Point.

I had already tried disabling power saving for WLAN and I had the network engineer investigate the drops.

As soon as I upgraded to LS 2.8, the WLAN connection was stable.
