Flashing fails why?

Hi all I have an s3 and had it for some time flashed original firmware fine in the past. as well as been rooted in the past without issues.

I consider my self experienced in flashing using odin / kies / Root Tool Kit ect.

When I flash any firmware it fails. this is in kies as well as odin and even in S3 Tool kit v6

I am more than confident i am doing all the correct way as i have done it in the past many times sucsessfully. lates drivers, default settings in odin selected ect. But when i flsh the top left led on the phone goes red but noi progress bar is displayed.

I wait in odin and after around 5 mins it comes back saying failed.

My last image i burned is as below. it works but i can now no longer update or burn any other image to the phone.

Seems i am stuck on 4.1.1

Baseband I9300BWDLI1

Android 4.1.1

Build number JRO03C.I9300XXDLIH

AP: I9300XXDLIH

CP: I9300BWDLI1

CSC: I9300O2UDLI3

Can anyone pleaase shed some light on this issue for me?

Many thanks for your time

Hello guys, just need a little help here. I was just wondering why can't I no longer install apk files using stock file manager or any other file managers? The "INSTALL" button is transluscent, it didn't respond everytime i pressed it but the "CANCEL" button besides it works perfectly. I just updated to official 4.1.2 stock rom poland just recently. At first, it was ok but after a while, it just didn't work. Can anyone help me on this? Will sure hit "thanks" button..
[Galaxy S III General] shafez:
You have the latest version installed.

[Galaxy S III General] JohnM1973:
Don't flame me, I have searched the forums and net, but can't find an answer to this question. My S3 is a UK handset. I am currently on 4.1.1 baseband I9300XXDLID. Would flashing to XXEKC via odin erase my user data? My handset isn't rooted, and has never had a custom Rom on it (keep a galaxy s for that post of thing). Quite keen to try this Rom, as I do like the features it will add. Thanks in advance, and apologies if this has been answered already and I've missed it somewhere in my search.
[Galaxy S III General] prakalejas:
Latest firmware has problem : random touchwiz fc on removing home screen (even after full wipe, cmon samsung), bluetooth has problems connecting to bmw (it might also be cars updates) but now it connects the phone only manually or does not find it at all + some fc of android settings, theres are home screen hide bug, when you open folder and there is only one home screen. So it's not so perfect after all, lacks multiview apps, but everything else works fine.
[Galaxy S III General] ToddeSwe:
The only thing I can't argue with you about is the BMW connection, i don’t have bluetooth on my BMW. :) otherwise everything you mention is working fine here without full wipe.

Camera firmware update failed (Phone to CAM FW Write (Rear) it is not available)

Hello !

After the update to Poland firmware, when i checked camera version, i noticed that I have to update to newer firmware but Phone to CAM FW Write (Rear) button it is not available.

I went back to 4.1.1, checked again camera version and again Phone to CAM FW Write (Rear) button it is not available.

I noticed that with 4.1.2 XEO, camera performance is worse then ever (not focusing ok and slow - images are not clear and there are very few details). In 4.1.1 camera has the same firmare as the phone (phone fw ver = cam fw ver) and it is working fine.

How can i make button (option) active ? Or how can i update camera firmware ?

Thank you !
[Galaxy S III General] dmatik:
The FC while removing home screens can be fixed by not setting the Animation options to "off" in Dev Settings. Set them to 0.5 and you be alright.

Same happaned in earlier versions also.

It will not delete your settings unless you manually do a factory reset. So don't worry, but I would backup all anyway.

Having weird wifi problems with this rom now seem to be coming on by itself?

Probably some app?
[Galaxy S III General] dratin:
Got the same issue here.

Even with the option for WiFi 'Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep set to 'only when plugged in' or 'never', Wifi is on all the time.

What is more, with this rom, I keep getting spam adverts in notification section and I can't find the way to turn them off.

Does anyone experienced the same? Any ideas how to fix it?

Rom was updated by OTA.
[Galaxy S III General] atilla88:
How is the overall performance and stability?
[Galaxy S III General] Hotzigetty:
If you're getting air push ads, it's because of some app and not the ROM. Check with your most recently installed apps first, or any 3rd party one that was installed as part of the OTA update.

Stock Rom

quick question i flashed a custom rom om my international unbranded s3 and never took note of stock rom is it possible to still find what rom i was installed
[Galaxy S III General] LenAsh:
Your question isn't clear...

Settings>About device for current ROM, previous ROM is irrelevant (and cannot be determined from the device) as you can flash any relevant stock ROM (including older ones) for your region.
[Galaxy S III General] kerrydan10:
not sure what region, i bought the phone online rooted it and installed a custom ROM but now i want to unroot it and flash the stock rom

[Galaxy S III General] Perka:
Go to a phone shop and look ;) at a phone they sell.

Or just flash the fw for your region, country.
[Galaxy S III General] JohnM1973:
I think to flash it with Rom for your country/region would be best bet if you wish to return to stock Rom.

[Galaxy S III General] Octork:
Did you end up losing all your apps and data after flashing or was it all the same as 4.0.4? I'm sure I'll need to clean a bit up but any info is a great help :)
[Galaxy S III General] vincecabz101:
You mean the previous ROM? If you haven't written it down the exact ROM, well you can still download the official ROM released by Samsung over Sammobile or right here at XDA.
[Galaxy S III General] andrewbat:
Lost no apps except Navigon. reinstalled it and it has been fine. Other than that great
[Galaxy S III General] MadMatt89:
It depends on what you do. It is recommended to wipe your data/cavhe/d cache if you do that you will lose all your data yes. However you can back up your data before you wipe using titanium Backup. You can try not to wipe but depending on which firmware you are at the moment, you may get force closes or malfunction.

I can't either, flashed via odin 3.07 (pc) and did a full wipe

Guys, on the new rom when you take a photo your got the sound for the camera shutter, right?!?!

I don't know what happened, I dirty flash the Poland rom, but I don't get the shutter sound...

More, I don't have any option, to enable/disable the shutter sound, on camera settings... I think that it was there, at least on ICS and also on 4.1.1...

Is there a way to get back shutter sound??

I guess if I wipe the rom it will do it, but for now I don't have time to do it... but I plan to do it...
[Galaxy S III General] JohnM1973:

Hay guys

I have a question regarding gallery.

If I'm in the gallery and I set view to "Time" (default is Albums"), next time when I enter gallery it's again set to "Albums". Is that normal or not. I would like that setting would stay.

And one more question regarding Google Maps.

In previous roms you only had to turn on GPS if you wanted to get location in G.Maps. But now I see that you have to enable "Location and Google search" also.

Is there any way around?

Oh and one more. Is there any way to get more/any applications on "multi view" that actually works (stock rom, only rooted).

Best

D.

EDIT

And again, there is no vibration on notifications if your phone is on vibrate??? Unless you enable "vibrate+ring" option in (only for ) text massages.

But in that case it vibrates also when phone is in "ring mode" :( ??
[Galaxy S III General] gchindi:

Yes, you'd probably lost your root access after flashing this Stock ROM coz it's the official one. CF Root should work but if not you can try flashing Siyah Kernel 1.8.4, it has already root access.
