About The Difference Between The Carries Roms
Different from other Samsung devices, all the Israeli carrier roms for the SGS3 are the same!
It doesn't matter which one you download, you get the same settings, apps, MODEM, kernel, recovery - everything is the SAME!
After you download the rom and flash it you can set the CSC of your phone to the carrier you are using (if you want to do that).
For more details how to do that continue reading the guide.
How To Flash Official Roms
Download your selected rom
Double click the .exe file to extract the .tar file
Flash the rom using Odin. If you don't know how - search for it!
You do not need root the flash these roms!!
How To Change The CSC To Your Carrier Settings (OPTIONAL)
If you want to revert back to your carrier settings (bootanimation, garbage apps, etc.), you will need to manually change your CSC.
NOTICE: This action will wipe ALL your data! Including pictures, music, backups, apps, setting.
Launch your stock dialer
Type in the code
Code:
*#06#
This is your IMEI number. Write it down.
Go back to your stock dialer and type in the code -
Code:
*#272*XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX#
Where XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX is your IMEI number.
You will be prompt with a selection of CSC codes. These are your carrier code. Select the one you want:
ILO - Sanny (Clean rom, no junk)
PTR - Orange (Partner)
CEL - Cellcom
PCL - Pelephone
MIR - Hot Mobile (Mirs)
The device will reboot and WIPE ALL YOUR DATA!! (See notice above)
When your device boots you will see all your carrier junk.

Hope its gonna help you - if you have Israeli operator rom and wish to change it to other operator or for your case to SUNNY clean rom then make these steps and you will get your phone without the operator's garbage
1 - Open the dialing screen and type this to get the IMEI code:
*#06#
2 - Write down the IMEI code so you can copy it for later use.
3 - Back to the dialing screen and type the IMEI from step 2 in the following format:
*#272*XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX#
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX = replace this with your IMEI
4 - You'll get the following selection screen:
choose one of the operators :
ILO - SUNNY ORIGINAL CLEAN ISRAELI ROM
PTR - ORANGE
CEL - CELLCOM
PCL - PELEPHONE
MIR - HOT MOBILE
After you choose your operator the phone will restart - make sure your battery is full !
NOTE: - once you selecting the operator code all of your DATA will ERASED and LOST!!!!
yeah yeah i know - bad English ;p

In galaxy 3 there is only one ROM for Israeli market. any Israeli operator's ROM you download from sammobile is the same file. The way you choose the right operator for you is the way i mentioned before, Even if you on Israeli ROM you can do those steps and get clean sunny ROM without flashing and etc... (sunny orange cellcom or whatever you choose)

I think the original rom (even in israel) is better then any other ****ty rom out there.. I'm new in android and replaced IOS after 4 years to android. tried so many roms for android and some modification and they all are ****ty and full of bugs (unlike the IOS) . what i am asking for is a good phone to meet my needs which is mosty entertainment needs. games news movies and so on. the original rom is the most stable rom yet !! so dont bother with other roms unless you are bored to death.
Have a great day
and dont get me wrong - i LOVE my SGS3
BTW orange just updated to the last ICS update for the galaxy s3 in last week - they also sent to their customers sms to make an OTA update.

thanks, your english is perfect...
the issue now is that my phone is a Dutch phone - and so is the rom - i bought it in Holland...
now, can i just burn the rom onto my phone and set it to Sunny and "finito" ?
will it work ?
will it update when there are updates ?
thanks once again
---------- Post added at 10:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 AM ----------
tried to search there for a rom - found nothing...
any direct link you can send ?

"ZeevG" yes you can, just flash using odin and thats it.
to check and be sure just check that your csc is "ilo" after the flash.

my sim card is from cellcom, which one has the best rom cellcom, pelephone or orange, and does it matter if my operator is cellcom and i flash orange rom

"hykhleif" all the operators in israel uses the same baseband, just install the "clean" sunny version (ilo).
it dont metters which rom you use for operator.

I bought mine in germany. And the reason that i flashed israeli rom is hebrew keyboard and calendar localization. And I don't feel any difference between roms. Except software. When I flashed the last UK rom from sammobile, then i got Wifi disconnections. So you never know which rom for you is better.

First post updated with link to the new release and detailed information and instructions!

Thanks firefds for posting the new ROM. I am new to Android a day have not yet rooted. I have few questions:
1. After flashing with Odin and not changing carrier, will my system settings and apps be as they were?
2. Any idea why sammobile would not showing for this firmware or Orange not sending good me SMS to do ODA update? I think I am asking how this firmware cycle works between Samsung, Sunny, and the mobile carriers?
3. A firmware came out about 3 weeks ago in UK that fixes a crackling sound on the phone when listening to audio via the earphone jacket and screen is off. Does anyone know if this new ROM fixes this problem?

[Q] Please help me get the stock rom

Hi Guys,
I unfortunately ****ed my Galaxy y pro, so i had to reflash it via odin but i flash it some strange rom. Now i would like to reflash it with the original one which is also more recent then this one, unfortunately kies is not allowing me to do so. So i need to apply some workarounds and for that i need the original details.
So guys can you please provide me with the PDA/PHONE/CSC for the Czech or at least some western european rom details?
You can acquire the details by entering *#1234# in phone, this will enter the service mode and show the
PDA
PHONE
CSC
Can you post this information?
After that can you please enter *#272*YOURIMEI#
this will write down the PC code can you please post this information also?
Hopefully i will be able to find the latest original rom via ?Check Fus with your details,
thank you very much!

Hi,
I guess there will be one generic for central Europe. I already acquired some details from one GT B5510 sold in CZ, I'm just waiting for the product code.
After that we will see what fus will offer me
but so far I'm using one netherlands rom and it runs fine - only few minor problem which i was also experiencing in the begining when i bought the phone - sd card disconnects and no network but both this issues occurred just once
So maybe at the end I will just stick with the Netherlands ROM, cos anyway it looks completly like the one which I had before with new gui for picking up the calls.

To fix the sd card problem try changing the kernel, I had my phone with that problem and I fixed it with this way. Just look the Doky's thread about kernels

[Q] SCH-i959 Gapps Noob

Hi guys,
Not sure if this is the right flavor of S4 but I didn't know where else to post...
I am new to all this flashing and ROMs on phones. I have read quite a bit and the biggest thing I have gotten is, be sure you know what to do before you do it. I know this is totally noob and I appreciate the help ahead of time and will share the knowledge forward here in China. I bought a S4 (SCH-i959 from China Telecom). Super excited to have a S4 but as I turn it on, no google account and no gapps. So could someone give me a detail step by step what to do to flash them onto my phone?
I have installed KIES and the USB drivers and can successful talk between my phone and my computer. I have used KIES to backup my phone. Is there any other backups I need?
I have downloaded ODIN 3.07 on my computer and it launches fine.
I am running android 4.2.2
My current firmware is PDA:MG2 / PHONE:MF1 / CSC:MG2 (CTC)
I am happy running stock ROMs, I want to keep it simple just want to get gapps back. (China and google don't mix...)
If any other info is needed, let me know and I will be quick to reply.
Thanks in advance guys!!!

Hi, how are you?
I have got the same PB, this SCH-I959 sux, and I certainly want to flash it like I did with my Note I - Note II and the S-III.
But I am having difficulties finding a ROM which can fits the SCH-I959.
Please post back if you find a ROM, thx!

Mine is bricked at the moment

I'm living in Beijing and I am having exactly the same problem. There doesn't seem to be any information on this phone anywhere that isn't in Chinese. I tried flashing that S4 google edition rom to my phone and now it won't even boot up. I'm not sure what I can do now.

Hi,I don't know if you've fixed the PB by now,and there's a ROM[KEUAME5 (4.2.2)] on which all gapps are installed and runs well may meet you request.You can download here : pan哈baidu哈com/share/link?shareid=44899363&uk=423036219&fid=1727708162("哈"=".")

I was just given this phone by someone and it really does suck not to be able to install GApps. Makes it pretty useless, IMHO.
Hopefully this will work. Not sure though as my other phone is a Xiaomi 2S and doesn't require any rooting :good:

[Q] Detection of my HD2 variant and other INFO!

Hello guys , i just bought a new HTC HD2 a second ago , was worried about which version is it actually , as i think the t8585 is an international version/variant but on boot its says Welcome O2 , that i suppose is a European Sim, but it can easily detect any kind of bands/sim cards in India and thus seems to be an International - Unlocked version,,,
More Info :
It has all white color light buttons that weren't in my friends HD2 (t8585)
And will i be able to flash all radios on it like the international one? or do i have to flash only t-mobile restricted..
Plz help this poor fella out

well, i know that if all the five buttons on the bottom are white it is international... just to be sure, can you check how much ram/rom does it have?

But does it matters it has o2 welcome screen? (Actually no O2 stickers or logo's on the phone anywhere) so shud i take it as a International version with O2 rom ?

Mine was Wind-branded, but i unbranded it flashing latest official rom and after rooted it and started flashing... Just like yours, mine only had Wind logo during boot, but no other logos/brands... I think it's an international version with o2-customized rom, nothing more

Thx for your reply , let's begin this thing , being a first timer , can u just poke me through the things that i need to do (no methods needed , just names) in increasing order begining from the first thing that i need to do till that of wp7.8 installation or even till magldr will solve it
Note: its stock rom , so plz tell me correct steps.
Thx allot :cyclops:

Well, first you need hspl (use one by cotulla) then radio, then magldr or clk (choose after reading differences), recovery and the last thing is the rom... Look for guides and comparisons around XDA
From my Venomed One X
Edit: look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021837
there is also another recovery, TWRP, but i had compatibility issues with some roms (most of the older ones)... give a try

[Q] N900P Region Unlock via custom rom (Sweet Rom)?

Hi there. This is my first post, so please excuse any mistakes.
I just found a rom that provides region unlock, so wanna know this:
Recently I bought a N900P (Sprint) through ebay and want to use it in Europe (Greece).
I don't know the locked/unock status or the IMEI of the device, cause is not here yet.
So, while waiting, I wanna know if I can I flash a Greek 4.4.2 stock rom on it
and after rooting, the above mentioned custom rom, so I can fully use my device in Greece.
Thanks for your time reading and answering this.

There's a few similar roms on Note 3 forum.
I've already installed a few, but a code is also
needed to unlock network. I've even ordered
one, but doesn't seem to work and soon I'll
get refunded (at least I hope I will). I'm not
sure if I'm allowed to post rom links here.
I hope this helps
