Portuguese Galaxy S3 Thread

Hi folks this thread is posted in order to help Portuguese owners of galaxy S3 with specific questions and specific hardware regional settings.
Many of us are rom adicts and starting flashing everything that comes out, and as a user sometimes I miss modem, CSC and so stuff.
That´s the sense of this trhead, is provide specific software like modem files for Optimus, Vodafone and tmn and open Tph.
Feel free to leave feedbacks, and to leave other things that could be usefull for us.
If I helped you in anyway just hit The thanks button. Its a second and fills me to continue hours of research.

Modems outadated, will be back later again.

Here are the links for the latest original portuguese firmware for S3.

Great post.
This really one of my concerns... I'm currently using DLJ4 with BTU modem.
Thanks for helping all of us Portuguese users.
This modem from Vodafone, can we use it with Optimus, for example?
Abraço,

No, nothing will happen to your data or phone, you just get a better phone signal.

With odin you dont need root. Just flash your desireble modem as modem.bin in odin. Dont tick anything in odin. Just modem and thats It.
And modem is not a tar file for odin isso .Bin

Hey.
Also have a TPH S3 running ICS stock, bought in portugal. Tell me if you need anything from mine (you may need to tell me how to do it though)

Tph is in ics for now. The Bin file you can extract from original tar file. I think we dont need this now. Only will make sense when you use 4.1 roms. The point is to use latest firmware from Samsung With our specific modem. I m using lj5 (4.1.1) from índia and without The Vodafone modem Portugal I Get many network breaks. With The correct modem none. Thats The point. I advice you to update to lj5. And then flash The modem even for one of The 3 carriers. You will have a great gain in Android 4.1.1 on your S3.

Nope, the info from #*1234# is almost useless because OJV is a Multi-csc, it includes the following 3 csc: XSI, KSA and XFM.
(you can get this info by open Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app, select menu --> CSC Lookup and search for the 'OJV')
So you don't know what exactly your csc is.
Instead, in your previous post, you know exactly your csc is XSI. So the download link for your firmware on sammobile is:

If the phone is unlocked he just has to flash the latest Saudi KSA rom, but apart from the CSC file they are probably identical

The latest available firmware for XSI is ENC2 (KitKat 4.4.2).
Go to Menu --> 'Firmware Browser...' to get the download link for this firmware, then flash it via Odin.

he have the note 3 with xsi not sin

Firmware OTA updates depends on region. Like in US it 1st releases and after few time in other countries one by one due to localization. Also it depends on career those have taken locked version under contract, like Verizon released the 4.4 in May where I got it many month back, even another latest firmware update recently.
So check google news, for your region or check other phones in your region. If they provides you will definitely get it. If others got it then contact Samsung.

I know. But shld not be a problem mate.
Mine is BTU. I flashed so many region alrd : DBT, XSI, SIN and BTU itself.
All run well.
Since I m flashing with odin, I don't really care abt region.
Worst case (if happen, so far never), just flash csc of ur own region.

Yes mate. Pain in the ass when u wipe to clean.
OTA got bad habit. Happened. To 2 of my friends already. They do OTA, enjoying it with data still intact. One day, all of sudden phone freeze, reboot, auto wipe. Puff, all gone.
Another one more also same. Freeze, never reboot auto, just stay freezing, phone very hot, unplug battery, boot and stuck at Samsung logo. Finally factory reset as well. Both can't save their data.
This happened. To my friends who do OTA from 4.3 to 4.4.2 but dun want to wipe.
