[Q] Retun to Stock Firmware 4.0.4 - Galaxy S III General

Hi Chaps,
Hope you can help me, I recently bought a 2nd hand S3 GT-I9300 and im based in the UK however the phone is rooted and I want to return to stock so I can upgrade to JB the natural way.
My phone details are as follows:
AP: I9300xxBLFB
CP: I9300XXLFB
CSC:I9300OXFBLF1
Android Version: 4.0.4
Baseband Version:I9300XXLFB
Kernal Version: Kernel Version 3.0.15-554452-user [email protected] #1
I am not sure what network it was originally on but I think its sim free as my 3 sim works fine.
Could you point me to the correct Stock firmware to do this?
Thanks in advance

Read the rules on posting before starting new threads.
Questions go in the q&a forum, search before posting.
Basic guides and information are in the sticky threads, which will tell you how to safely return your phone to stock.
Don't leave your phone on the current firmware too long, it will kill the memory chip.

Sorry mate, I have now posted it in the Q&A forum.

[Q] [Active] Baseband Version

I am running geohots root and did a one click oden because my ringers got screwed up when doing a restore with TBu. I was looking at my baseband version today after reading about the recent upgrade to the stock SG4 and noticed that I have the following listed : I537UCUAMF1. I checked out what AT&T says I should have (or at least the latest) is : Baseband Version: I537UCUAMF3
Doing a few searches of the forums I was not able to find anything that suggested this should be the case. What do you all have?

MF1 is the pre-release version MF3 is the current version. The one-click we have is for the prerelease and will not update OTA. As of now there are no known ways to get back to MF3.. but there is no discernible difference between MF1 and MF3.
Thank you for clarifying

[Q] I9500 Unroot Questions

Hi Guys,
With the Android 4.3 update coming soon(btw i am from South Africa), i want to be able to update my phone.
My phone is rooted with no custom roms or kernels. I searched the web for the unroot "method" and it seems pretty simple to do it.
Most of the guides that i looked at(including the Xda one), does offer the South African firmware.
However when i went to look at the Baseband and CSC "code", i saw that it differed slightly.
Example : I9500XXUAMDE
Mine : I9500XXUAMDK
Should I be concerned about this and can I continue even though it differs?
(In other words will it be safe?)
Any help would be gladly appreciated
Thanks

[Q] Need help with Updates and Rom

I've moved this thread to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52874692&postcount=12328
so it can be deleted...
---------------------------
Hello,
In November 2013, I installed Sacs Custom Rom 4.3 for the S4 Sprint Model SPH-L720. Since then, I have been getting updates from Samsung every 2 weeks. When I install the update, the root always needs to be repaired. After installing the update, I always have to reinstall my backup account.
My questions are:
1)What is the latest version for this particular version of the rom?
2) Is it typical to get so many updates?
3) How would I fix root rather than repairing it each time I install an update?
4) How can I permanently have the backup account stay on the device?
Thanks very much for reading

Why you don't ask in the correct thread of the creator of this custom ROM if all your questions are referred to this one? :highfive:

I saw this was the Q&A thread, so I posted here. How can I transfer this thread there?

Update to MM from rooted 4.4? Cant find a guide anywhere =/

Here is what I am currently running
The phone is currently rooted.
GM-G900V
Android Version: 4.4.4
Baseband version: G900VVRU1ANI2
Kernal Version: 3.4.0
Build Number: OptimalROM R12-6
I want to upgrade to MM and install this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/unified-development/rom-ressurrection-remix-mm-t3275340
I also want to upgrade my kernal.
When everything is said and done, I of course want to be rooted.
Now I cant seem to find answers anywhere. I love this site, but finding a helpful guide is painful. So many different version of threads. I found several threads where people were asking the same thing but there were no good answers. So I imagine this could help others too.
If someone could tell me exactly what I need to do to upgrade to MM and get this new ROM installed, I would be insanely grateful.

Hi skoad
You have a Verizon and, as so, you may first start by reading the below:
[GUIDE] Unlocking the Galaxys S5 Bootloader using DEV Bootloader [KK-MM]
As soon as you find yourself comfortable, you will need first update your Bootloader (mentioned above) and Modem partitions. To do so you should flash a Sammobile firmware using Odin.
These are the firmwares available for you but only the first one is Marshmallow and your aim.
You may follow these general instructions obviously regarding your device data.
The Kernel update will be done by the ROM you are focusing to install and it will be rooted already.
Let us know how it performed with Stock.
Cheers.

Thanks a ton. I am pretty busy this weekend but will be giving this a shot Monday and will report back. What youve provided seems very helpful and straightforward, just what I was hoping for!
