What version was my i9305 originally? - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

Hi Ive searched for ages but cant find an answer to this seemingly simple question.
I just purchased a i9305 which I'm trying to return to stock ROM. Problem is I've no idea what the original ROM was. The phone came with a modified rom and even though I can reset the flash counter and get it to say Samsung official ROM in ODIN, however it always says "sytem status:Modified."
Also in About>status it always says modifed-even with stock rom.
Cant get hold of the seller atm so I'm asking if theres a way to tell what the inherent stock rom of the phone is-not just the rom version I have installed now??
Thanks for your help, I hope i made myself somewhat clear.

Hey,
no way. I don't think there is a history.
Tell more about your phone, and maybe someone has the same and can tell you.
Btw. to get the modified status away, you have to install stock rom (kernel, boot, recovery and so on) and reset the flash counter. The device will check on every boot for custom things and set the counter to 1, if something were found.

You mean the phone doesn't really know what original factory version it was?
I installed a stock rom, reset the counter with triangle away and it even updated through Samsung kies after that. But still says modified.
Maybe I didn't install all the parts of stock rom? You said kernel etc so what exact elements do I have to make sure to install?
Thanks

Maybe. I know the csc will be stored, if it's a branded one. Thats all i know.
A complete stock rom contains system, hidden, recovery, data, modem. boot images.
So install with "mobile odin" (or odin from a pc) the recovery and boot image, restart, reset counter, restart. And check. If you install an original boot image, the kernel will also be stock.
Have you read other help threads? Some users have these issues also with stock roms, they had it from the beginning.
If you think, all is done and all went good without errors, you are maybe one of these users.

thanks.
By 'the recovery and boot image' do you mean PDA and bootloader options?
This is the current status info in 'About':
Model no: GT-i9305
Android version 4.1.2
Baseband version: i9305XXBLL5
KERNEL VERSION: 3.0.31-746327
[email protected] #1
SMP PREEMPT Wed Dec 26 etc...
2012
Build number: JZ054K.I9305XXBLL5
Then in Status:
Serial number: R31C914MNNK
Do I have stock kernel and recovery?
Thanks!

But isnt my warranty void if it still says 'SYSTEM STATUS: MODIFIED'??

Just wanted to let you know I sorted it.
I did the folowing, not sure which part or all bits helped.
Installed older stock kernel.
Installed old stock recovery.
In recovery mode did cache wipe AND full factory rest.
Then phone showed Status:Normal
and in ODIN showed No flash count and official and official!!!

Cheers. Great News.
Your warranty is void, if the status is modified.

i9305 bootloader
Is it possible to flash an older bootloader from ICS or 4.1.1 on my i9305?
I got the new bootloader when I flashed the 4.1.2 and now Triangle Away don't work anymore and I reaaly need it to root my phone and flash a new kernel and CWM...
Is it possible? I didn't found any answer about this... :S

TA still works if you use everything stock. And if you don't, then what's the point in resetting the counter? They'll deny warranty anyway

It won't reset the counter neither change the status with this new bootloaders.
But if I have my phone with everything stock why the hell will they deny the waranty, if the counter is 0 and the status is normal?
On 4.1.1 I had root on my phone and TA reseted the counter and put the status normal, and I needed to send it to warranty and they don't deny it, although I was with a custom rom...
I don't get what you are trying to tell me.

Same thing here

You are wrong. TA works perfectly with the latest bootloader, as long as you're absolutely stock. As in, stock unrooted ROM, stock recovery. And if you're not using stock, then you don't need TA because they will deny you warranty if you're on a custom ROM or not completely stock. That's what I meant

[Q] get back to stock

Hi,
i have a sgs from optus australia with the following info:
Baseband: I9000DTJP3
Kernel: 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #36
Build: FROYO.DTJP5
i flashed the speedmod kernel following instructions on the cyanogenmod wiki http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S:_Full_Update_Guide
i wanted to flash cyanogenmod but it had a signature verification fail, which i now know is because of the recovery version. so i've given up on that and i just want to update the phone over kies to the stock gingerbread.
so, i'm pretty sure i can't just connect the phone to kies and try to update it because it has clockwordmod recovery?
so the question is how do i get back to stock kernel? i think I've downloaded the right firmware (from:http://www.multiupload.com/CH3Y5SAHE2), is it a matter of finding the kernel in that folder and just flashing that back on to the phone? is there going to be any issue with this?
thanks everyone
So I just went for it and updated the phone via kies. It worked with no real dramas.
So the next step in getting back to stock is to get rid of superuser, which I can't do now because the update took away root.
Is there a way to temp root the phone to remove superuser then get back to unrooted again?
Why not to flash with odin, with repartition and full wipe?
It will restore it ot factory settings.

Thank you for your reply, I read this a couple of days ago but I didn't really understand half of what you said lol
So I googled a lot but i'm no closer to understanding. I did a factory reset just from the settings menu but that didn't work. What does repartition do?

Repartition will effectively wipe your entire phone (it repartitions the phone's memory).
Odin is a program used to flash (install) firmwares, both custom and stock ones. Tutorials are everywhere, please search.
Cool thanks for that, I guess the problem I had with understanding is what am I flashing? The stock firmware? Because isn't that what kies just did (albeit without the repartition). Seems like a pain to find the stock firmware since I just got it from Samsung ota

It's either that or you root and then unroot (no idea how to do that one).
http://www.samfirmware.com/ has firmwares. If you flash a Froyo one (repartition checked), you could then update again via Kies. This will give you an absolute stock phone (including the loss of all your information via the repartitioning).
Have you tried going to the market finding the super user app and trying to click uninstall from there. Im guessing you tried the normal way...

[Q] (Q) Little Red Exclaimation dot

Hi there..
Sorry if this question have been asked before but it seems i can't find the actual step on how to eliminate these little red dot on my phone GT-I9305. I bought the phone while it's on 4.1.1 under XXALI5 build number.
I root it via ExynosAbuse 1.40 then i TriangleAway it to reset binary counter. Unfortunately now i have that little red dot.
May i know the right way to eliminate this.?
Thank you and sorry for my poor English.
you have to be completely stock and not rooted after applying TA.
why is it a problem anyway?

Not a big problem actually. I just looking IF there is a way where i can eliminate those red dot and still have a rooted phone.
While i was on GT-I9300..this can be done by flashing old bootloader.
I don't know that it's different with GT-I9305 where i must be completely on stock and not rooted in order to eliminate those red dot.
Anyway..thanks for clarify the situation to me.
The kernel and recovery both need to be stock; I would suggest flashing, for instance, one of the packages in the pre-rooted stock ROMs thread since you want to stay rooted, and then seeing if TriangleAway works. If you have already installed CWM or some other custom recovery, the pinned toolkit thread in the development section includes the stock recovery. As far as I know, you can't use a custom recovery and keep the flash counter at 0.

I don't mind the binary counter not zero or the phone status is modified. I just want a rooted phone without that red dot.
Thank for the link there. Looks like i need to flash full stock firmware first then root it with one of those pre-rooted stock roms.
so why do you want it? trying to understand you
good to know...

Hi,
Root via ExynosAbuse not increment the flash counter. (you re not full root (if it install supersu, not install busybox..) and you can unroot in the app settings.) Just the phone status is modified. So you don't need Triangle Away
I had root my GT-I9305 when have 4.1.1 ROMs with ExynosAbuse. Then I flashed a 4.1.2 ROMs stock, and now, all my status are OK.
I'm not sure it's a good thing to triangle away a phone root by ExynosAbuse app...( I never saw this red dot on my screen )
Anyway, if this red dot is always here after a flash, you'll probably need to triangle away.

Odin flash auto-reverts after rebooting

Hi guys, i have an s4 active i9295 with a bootloop, so i decided to flash stock rom via odin as i always did with samsung phones with this problem but every time i flash a rom (i tried different ones) the phone restarts as normal but when the samsung logo appears then it says on the top left with blue letters revocery booting, then it does something with a progress bar and an android logo above and restarts. When it boots again its back at the bootloop, im an absolute noob in this but what i understand is happening is that the phone is reverting the flash i did with odin and i want to know what am i doing wrong, is this supposed to happen? Any help will be much appreciated

I'll try to help you, what did you install or modify that caused the bootloop in the first place? Was your device rooted? Did you have custom recovery? What recovery? Did you have a custom ROM? What ROM?

I received the phone as it is with the bootloop, don't know much of its state before but i was told that it was a bad flashing procedure the cause of the problem. It had stock recoverys from the different roms i flashed in odin: I9295XXUDOB4
I9295XXUCNE5
I9295VJUDOF1
There was one time i managed to make it boot flashing CWM and installing cyanogenmod 12.1 but on restart it kept bootlooping again and i was unable to get it to boot again even repeating exactly the same steps i did before.
I want to make an absolute clean firmware flash with the original rom that this phone came in my country (VJUBMK4) but from what i understand once im on newer versions (im not sure if 4.3 or 5.0) i cant downgrade.
I really don't know what is it causing the bootloop, how can i get the pone to factory firmware? Am i doing something wrong?

Ah, it sounds like you have one of the devices with locked bootloaders then if you can't downgrade, if that is the case you can't use CWM, TWRP, CM or AOSP custom ROMs, those devices have to use Safestrap and modified Stock ROMs. Or you may can unlock the bootloader. I'm not sure that is your problem but you can check it out.
You can flash the newest stock firmware and just be done with it, you may not be able to root and flash custom but the device will at least work.

Take the cover off and pull the battery, the label under the battery should have the model number for the phone.
If the model is GT-i9295, then you have an unlocked bootloader and should be able to flash any firmware.
If the model is SGH-i537, then you have a locked bootloader and can only flash firmware meant for that phone.
Once we know which phone you have we can help you.

Hi,
About IMEI null/null with 4.4.4 firmware, you should search in this Q/A forum, there a lot of threads asking for this issue. Maybe you should get an answer yourself
However, you should try again to do a clean flash of latest official 4.4.4 firmware with ODIN v3.09 by following this GUIDE HERE from @MaHo_66.
AFAIK, it's impossible to downgrade from 4.4.4 because of KNOX bootloader. It has been said many times in this Q/A forum. Maybe it exists somewhere a tricky trick to do it but I'm not aware of this.

In Addition to @FLooDW 's answer:
Try to use Philz 6.48.4 or 6.59.0 as your recovery rather then TWRP or the old CWM (6.0.4.7), especially DON'T use the latest TWRP from their official website, its a broken build and its known to mess up the partitions! That could be your problem if you have done that before...
Any recovery you want to use, download from my RECOVERY/GUIDE thread that FLooDW linked to you, use those they work fine.
PS. before flashing official firmware with ODIN, make sure you have a custom recovery installed, then boot into recovery, wipe system/data/cache/dalvik-cache/internalSD/boot/modem etc. this is to ensure when you have flashed the firmware, there is nothing left from the previous firmware that was installed.
Note: when explaining your issue, try to do that by providing as much as possible info about your actions before and after the problem occured, that way anyone who wants to help can help you the best way possible.

Trying what you guys have mentioned just now, let you know as soon as :good:
What 4.4.4. om do you suggest?
Also the efs I backed up (not sure if its working or not as it was with Rom Manager)
How do I restore, can it be done with root explorer?
Tried the [ROM][i9305][18.10.15]>>>4.4.4<<<[KK][STOCK][TW][STABLE][+AROMA] S5 Elite Lite v4.0
which I posted a few days ago, left a post with no reply and thats when I started getting the null/null
PSN_AGNi_pureSTOCK-v5.9.5-4.4.x_I9305_AROMA
Currently trying this rom.. watching the installation set up and says so far that set_perm: some changes failed
used philz_touch_6.59.0-i9305

AGNi is not a ROM, this is a kernel. Did you flash AGNi kernel over official Samsung firmware ?
As MaHo_66 said, you have to explain more what you have done and what you need if you want us to help you.
Steps :
reflashed a Stock Rom then Rooted it then added Philz Recovery
Then Tried this rom : I9305XXUFNL1_O2UFOB1_4.4.4_KK.zip
Currently trying various modems to see what this gives me
Failing this will need to try QPTS or EFS Professional again.
* I know how to flash and root roms if you look at my signature along with kernels I am basically telling you what I have tried to get
this null/null away as I think its a baseband/modem issue somewhere as I have read various posts and some people agree.
Cant even do the *#197328640# or *#*#197328640#*#* to get into certain modes
Thinking it maybe the sim card slot now .......... I am losing my mind now!

There are few other possible solutions you could try:
- try this, it shows you how to get in service mode and the restoring of the golden efs backup, that should be present if its good.
If above doesnt work, then try the one below.
- have you tried to flash the param_bin file? if not try that with ODIN, it might work.. file attached.
Let us know how it goes.
H yes tied that file and didnt work
will the imei work from another phone or efs?
isnt that link just gps?

Did you unlock the bootloader?
There is a good guide here on how to back up your DRM keys before you experiment and loose your TA partition
Have you tried a factory reset?
Have you done a hard reset? button under flap next to sim.
Download PC companion
Follow these instructions
Possibly read a bit more before randomly flashing roms...
I have done a factory reset, and also have done a 5.1 and 4.4 SW install. I have a feeling the custom ROM corruped my EFS. Does anyone have the EFS file they can share so i can try that?

It's a simple problem really, You flashed a custom ROM, and I think the baseband of your current ROM wasn't the same as the last one and therefore you are having this "no signal problem".
Simply use the baseband of a Firmware the same version as your current custom ROM
To do this you must flash it and exclude everything except baseband.

It's a simple problem really, You flashed a custom ROM, and I think the baseband of your current ROM wasn't the same as the last one and therefore you are having this "no signal problem".
Simply use the baseband of a Firmware the same version as your current custom ROM
To do this you must flash it and exclude everything except baseband.

How do i go about doing that? i just want the easiest way to get it back to working condition, i dont care about the custom rom anymore. I restored the Stock 4.4.4 on it.
so currently its on the stock 4.4.4 with the current baseband and kernel
currently the baseband is 8974-AAAAANAZQ-00022-21
Kernel 3.4.0-perf-g1b1963a-02930-g23f7791
