The kernel may be different. You can check intratech firmware thread for stock kernels. Not sure if what you need is there or not
[Galaxy S III General] madmattoz:
As far as I'm aware, the XSA firmware also uses the LE8 kernel, which is available in Intratechs thread.
[Galaxy S III General] adr6ian:
Yup - cheers - grabbing that now. :good:

Don't know why I didn't just think of that myself. Apologies for polluting the thread.

Great guide btw UpIntheAir - thanks again
[Galaxy S III General] UpInTheAir:
No worries. :)

Good feedback from the first few "Guinea pigs" to help refine and improve the process.

Hopefully our carriers will release full official firmware for download. Who knows when....

Excellent.

Don't think the full official firmware is yet available, so I'm sure someone over in the Aussie SGS3 thread will appreciate it (and myself). You need to have a search there first and samfirmware, checkfus,...

If you could please post it there, and I'll link the OP to your post# :)

Could you also use the checkfus Android app to find out and post your Product Code. Thanks

Just having trouble understanding the method.

How do i do step 3 and flashing?

didn't quite understand

(flashing = putting the files in sd and use cwm recovery update.zip thing?)
[Galaxy S III General] UpInTheAir:
You'll need an original nandroid backup.

+ for nandroid restore, you don't use the update.zip function

* It will usually be saved on your internal or external sdcard.

* If you have downloaded one from another user, you may need to unzip it first and then copy the entire "clockworkmod" folder to your internal sdcard.

* boot into cwm recovery and, something like....

* select "backup and restore"

* restore and select nandroid

* follow rest of the steps
[Galaxy S III General] eljuwenbur:
I have downloaded the file 7tOny4 uploaded

but when i copy the file into sd->clockworkmod->backup

and tries to restore, it's keep saying md5 mismatch

What should i do...

Edit, i tried

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=714114

with adb shell

saying

can't remove 'nandroid.md5' : No such file or directory

...sigh
[Galaxy S III General] 7tOny4:
here try this replace the md5 file with this one https://www.box.com/s/4ks5ce2mic6ifnd27h7n it over rides md5 check ive done it not long ago and it worked.
[Galaxy S III General] eljuwenbur:
Thanx

Thanks again this worked...phew

now i can work on it T_T
[Galaxy S III General] 7tOny4:
Ok place the file on your external sd card under clockworkmod- backup. Then move md5 file some were you remember just in case. it will say you can't but override it when it asks. Then put the file I linked you in the file. make sure it's zero in size.

Then rebot into cwm recovery. Restore and backup. Restore from external card. choose the file named vodafone. That's what I did with a md5 mismatch and it worked.

Edit. glad it worked for you.
[Galaxy S III General] eljuwenbur:
This fixed my original problem

lol...

i had this bugging ticking noise coming out from my phone when i play music,

tried various methods, including roms, but didn't work

so i needed to make everything original before i take it to vodafone

but somehow while i was doing these it fixed...

hahaha
[Galaxy S III General] 7tOny4:
Well that's one headache you don't have to deal with.
[Galaxy S III General] Skyburn:
Confused by different opinions

I tried searching in this thread but came up with no results for this:

Doesnt the nandroid backup also copy over the DeviceID? I remember reading on another thread on XDA (cant find it now), that doing a full nandroid restore copies over the device ID as well and this could lead to issues like user 1 requesting an app and user 2 (who restored from user 1's nandroid) gets the app too since it has the same deviceID.

Am I wrong in thinking this? Or do these nandroid backups have a setting to disable the device ID overwrite? Thanks for your help in clarifying this :)

Also, a big thank you to UpInTheAir for the guide :D
[Galaxy S III General] UpInTheAir:
Not quite sure.

I know that you can restore the device id using titanium backup pro when restoring a backup (if different from TB pro backup).

Sorry, don't have much time to look into it right now.
[Galaxy S III General] jchirag0221:
When I tried to use nandroid backup. I couldn't find the sdcard/clockmodrecovery folder so where to put the nandroid backup folder.

Also when I reboot in recovery mod and click on backup and recovery (which is same as nandroid) I get an error message saying

E:\ can't mount.

Help me please..............
[Galaxy S III General] UpInTheAir:
What are you trying to do? What is your aim?

Which nandroid? Yours or another?

Do you have a formatted external sdcard mounted?

If you are trying to restore another nandroid, extract the zip and copy the entire extracted clockworkmod folder to external sdcard. Then boot into cwm recovery and restore. Alternatively, copy folder to internal sdcard and select restore from internal sdcard.
[Galaxy S III General] TassieMenace:
Aside from the device being locked to the network... Is it possible to flash a telstra rom to my Optus s3?
[Galaxy S III General] UpInTheAir:
Yes

If you flash official firmware package with Odin, your current modem (baseband) may be replaced.

Signal, speed, stability etc may not be the best, so you most likely need to flash a suitable modem for Optus found in my modem thread (if different).

Also root most likely will be lost. Just takes minutes to re-root using Chainfire's method.

Network locked doesn't necessarily mean bootloader locked. There is an app in the Play Store to network / SIM unlock.
[Galaxy S III General] TassieMenace:
The Optus phone I was trying to return to stock to return as part of their coverage satisfaction guarantee (earlier posts)... they have now let me keep if for a few hundred bucks (Ripper!!) and I'll be using it on a BYO Telstra plan. The question above refers to if you foresee any issues in making it a 'telstra friendly' phone... :)
[Galaxy S III General] UpInTheAir:
Forgot to mention, probably best to factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik (if cwm recovery) immediately before flashing different firmware build.

If no CWM recovery, factory reset, pull battery, back in and download mode to flash immediately with Odin.
[Galaxy S III General] BigSteve123:
HELLPP

heyy how do i get triangle away onto my phone
[Galaxy S III General] UpInTheAir:
Tap the Triangle Away App link in OP. Follow Chainfire instructions and any faq and read his thread

I have gone through the restore process which worked well (I have to send my phone back for a warranty issue)

Any help appreciated as to where I source the original kernel and restore it

Thanks
[Galaxy S III General] UpInTheAir:
Have you checked your product code? What does the checkfus app show in the phone section? Did you do a factory reset in step#9?

This guide is now almost redundant, as was intended for those without official firmware to download and restore.........

Maybe the easiest way for you would be to factory reset and flash a complete official firmware package with Odin. You can find the guide and many packages in Intratech's official firmware thread, samsung-updates.com, checkful windows program, or sammobile.com.

Thanks, but how should I know which ROM I must download? I have bought unlocked S III from Germany but there is no "universal" ROM?
[Galaxy S III General] UpInTheAir:
Sorry, ........but come on !!

Did you actually search those links I gave you ????

Checkfus has many Germany firmware clearly searchable when you click on GT-I9300

XDA here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1671969

Using the menus in Samfirmware.com ??? --> "firmwares and files" menu ????
[Galaxy S III General] LionRock:
I have. But for every ROM (for germany) there is for their mobile provder and so I understand that this ROM's are locked to this provider? Because of that I have asked which ROM is universal so I will be able to use it in Slovenia.
[Galaxy S III General] UpInTheAir:
The best "universal" ROMs are those I9300_XX. They are generally European ones and will most likely have the CSC you need (Germany, English etc)

Take your choice of any of the latest.

Don't forget changing CSC will automatically factory reset your device!

And lastly, I'm happy to help when time permits, but please search first, and post in the correct thread next time or Q&A :) This thread has absolutley nothing to do with your issue.

Hi,

how can I learn, if I have to proceed this step?

6. Flash modem.zip (only if baseband is not original)

I have rooted my phone and flashed Omega v4.2 AOKP JB Milestone 1, nothing else.

Thank you.
[Galaxy S III General] UpInTheAir:
You maybe have flashed a non-original modem with the custom ROM (not always though) and need to restore the original modem.

You will need to find your product number from under battery or printed on the box.

This guide is most likely not for you as your firmware has more than likely been released......

Instead, use Google, XDA, Samsung-updates, Samfirmware, checkfus, etc to search for your original firmware that matches your region and or product number, use Triangle Away app first and then flash the COMPLETE official firmware package. Guides etc ate found in forum stickies
[Galaxy S III General] farmski:
hi, can I confirm that this WILL work on my international version..

I have an original cwm stock backup with my origianal modem etc..

it was updated to 4.0.4 ics

Ive tried a few BTU roms, but the basebands were not correct, and Im at a loss with the rom flash method, the one that I found which I believe SHOULD work is missing a download link, which Ive requested a re-upload 3 weeks ago with no success.

I need to get warranty... will this method work for me?? many thanks
[Galaxy S III General] UpInTheAir:
It will work for any I9300 or I9300 if you meet the requirements on OP.

You should not need this guide, as your firmware is surely released and available for download.

yh because the goldcard is ur sdcard. plug in the phone, run the goldcard tool it should detect the sdcard then press get cid, once it shows cid copy it then click the link below it to take u to the site where u create the goldcard then paste ur cid number and follow the other instructions then once u have the goldcard downloaded go back to goldcard tool, press the load goldcard (i think thats what it says) find the file on ur computer and select it then press patch r something like that and ur done. it should say succes sdcard is now a goldcard r something along those words. hope thats not too confusing lol
