Hi
How to check same like iphone websites if my s4 is till in warranty ?
UK - europe please
thnx
I don't think there's any way of checking warranty status like Apple products. But as it was only released last year in April time wise it should still be in warranty, just depends on where you got the phone from and maybe if you need proof of purchase etc

Doubt the serial number check would've have done anything, back up your current rom and return to stock to see if it's still playing up

do u have link for international stock rom ? i have only 3uk stock rom there is that stupid 3uk operator boot animation..
Well, you'll need to return it to stock 3uk firmware unless you want to go through changing the csc from 3uk's to the unbranded one. But then that might mess about with any warranty claim so it's best to keep it with 3uk firmware etc

You dial it for production date.What exact firmware are you after.Is it 3uk or btu, and 4.2 or 4.3.You can get them from sammobile, just join and input the info and youll get a link from terrafile.Takes a couple of hours to download.
Bear in mind what Alan said earlier...

Hello everyone.
I have just bought a new samsung galaxy s3 from china. I want to unlock it and install the newest firmware, all at the beginning before i start installing applications and changing settings the way i want them. For start the phone is sim locked and in Cyprus,where i live, i have to unlock it. The only procedures i saw up to now includes root of the phone which automatically means void of warranty. I don't really mind of it but is there any way to do it without this result? How about changing the phone CSC, is that going to help or this has nothing to do with radio?
I also want to install jelly beans but iam not really sure if the official rom for this model is on the market. Any help and any links would be appreciated!
Thanks!

No you cannot unlock your phone without rooting ..and you should have posted it in the Q/A section.

Yeah you have a point here but the warranty is international and i think it is valid in Cyprus too. But anyhow as i said earlier i don't really care about warranty since most of the times i fix my staff.
Congrats on your new purchase. The best Galaxy ever!
You need root privileges to do an unlock.

I doubt it. Try reading the warranty card that came with your phone. It states that the warranty is valid only in the country of purchase, AND with a proof of purchase (such as invoice, fiscal document, whatever).
Besides, since your model was bought in China, it may not be a GT-I9300, but a variant (such as GT-I9300T, or any other letter after the "9300"). That info will be under the battery, in the labels in its compartment.
If - and only if - your phone is not exactly a GT-I9300 (w/o any letter after that), flashing an I9300 ROM or kernel to it may brick the phone.
Before doing anything to your phone, read a lot fo stuff in these forums, to minimize your chance of bricking your phone, and get a greater understanding of what and why you'll be doing to your phone.
Anyhow, forget about your phone's warranty: a rooted phone is a lot better than a stock phone.
Thank you very much i will keep that in mind. As far as i know it is GT-I9300 and for the warranty i haven't read it yet but i will.
Ok i finally recieved my phone but when i opened it i was really sad to find out that the software was completely chinese! There is not even a choice to insert my gmail account so i can sync my contacts. When i tried to change the csc with the usual way (*#2372....) the only option i got was the one already installed which is the CHY. So i tried to download the SGS CSC selector app to install a european csc but the only way to download it is by google market, something that i am unable to do since there is not even the google play app in the phone!! I am really unhappy cause i was waiting for this phone for a month and now that i have it, it's all messed up...
Any ideas????

No it's an original samsung's product. But i don't know why there is no sign of google in this phone.. And there are also a lot of chinese apps installed. Btw when it boots there is a chinese screen at first and then the normal samsung's logo appears. I wish flashing a rom will get rid all of these chinese things!
Jayden what information would you like to write down for the confirmation of it's international edition??

Already tried a factory reset?.... Hmm suppose u don't know where to look if it's all in Chinese.... I would suggest to ask a dev because I can't tell u if u have a international SIII or not... I guess u have but I am not sure... If u do have one then you can flash any stock rom u want with Odin

I9500 sold in Qatar are coming from UAE (if not mistaken). to be sure connect to Kies and see what are the last (3 letters) under phone firmware. i think it is (XSG).

what i wanted to know is that , is the S4 i bought legit ? i mean in my place there are lots of S4 clones , but what makes this different is that clones in my place use exynos quad cores , but this S4 i have right here has a snapdragon and 1.89 ghz krait something ..
plus i wanted to know more about it's version , as i can't OTA update , says it's custom , i'm not even rooted and everything is stock ..
Haha your title says need more info, well It would help if you provide more info for us to work out if you have fake or not,

From what I can see it looks legit
Galaxy S4 GT-I9505.
however I don't know what country the CSC would be.
My guess is its Indian phone
I can only find xxuamdk so with yours xxuamcl the "uam" sounds like indian.
My guess is your download is corrupt you said you have slow internet which is my clue.
I'm guessing if you get the uamdk and flash in Odin it should work.
My strong advice is if you want to root and go custom don't go for the current 4.3 with Knox boot loader.

First read and learn what Knox is and what it does. Then decide if you even want Knox on your phone. If you don't want it, stay away from that firmware you mention. Stay away from all official firmwares. Then you can only flash custom roms. That rom is Knox free, but it still contains the updated bootloader (correct me if i'm wrong).
no luck with flashing , i tried using 4.2.2 from brazil , it fails on odin , i tried repartitioning with a pit file , it says secure check fail : pit , oh my what should i do this is pretty messed up :/

Your very lucky that pit file has checks, you need to do a lot more reading about Samsung methods before messing around anymore with your phone, if you had have read up on what pit file is you would have found out NOT to go messing with that, its ment for advanced persons who know what they are doing and can be very big problem if you make error.
You asked what to do, well my friend all I can say is read read read and understand fully what you are actually reading.
I am quite advanced with HTC phones but these Samsung's are a different animal and I'm not fully understanding yet...
So please don't mess with your phone unless you know what it is your actually doing. I say this cause I have no idea why you are trying to use pit file to flash ROM.

Hi,
Hope you guys will help

Should I direct flash this version or I have to keep some secure steps to avoid brick?

You can't flash live software onto a demo version due to having no radio on it, well it can be done but it's a right pain playing with the files, a couple of people have managed it but it's really not worth it in all honesty. You can (soft) brick very easily and it's not so easy to recover from it.

FYI - Demo units are different to a normal working device. It is NOT just a case of "search for ur software file and upgrade it easly do not worry"

Now according do this it is just a normal Note 3. I have another carrier in it with LTE working and everything is working.
BUT When i boot the phone there is a t-mobile boot animation. (thats all i can find of t-mobile in and on the phone)
I know T-mobile does this with all there phones and my last Note 2 had this to and i could just Root and Flash all i wanted like it was a normal version. Now can i also do that with this Note 3. And how can i know the difference between a T-mobile Note 3 and a International One.

Its probably only the T-Mobile bootanimation which is added. Should be fine to root it and flash custom roms on it if you want. Search in the T-Mobile thread for more info http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-tmobile to be sure.

Thanks, i tried that but i don't know what to search for. i tried everything i could think of (english is not my native language). And nothing comes up. I already reader and searched trough it manually in the topics if i could find something but i couldn't.
Suggestions on how you specifically call this? I tried Branded, Unbranded, International note or T-mobile and all variations i could think of

I was really worried cause i've been on apple for more then a year so i'm a little rusty with flashing again and there is allot of new stuff with new mobiles so just that little anxiety when first flash. After that i will probably keep flashing till there is no more
Thanks for the information and the confirmation really love this community!

Just to make sure bro, thought initialy you might have a US T-Mobile device Dutch T-Mobile devices are not branded, you can also flash a PHN (unbranded) rom from www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/. This will not trip the KNOX void warranty.

I probably thought already so, but i didn't know what changed and didn't wanted to brick it from the start. And i really want to do custom so the KNOX warranty can kiss my ass. I never bricked a device by being careful and can change the hardware myself. And if i really need the warranty i buy a new phone. i switch every half year or so i never use that.
Thanks for the input i'm gonna have a happy time flashing

You can always check for the latest firmware for your phone by installing this app and open the menu --> 'Firmware Browser...'
