[Q] upgrading android

i m using samsung galaxy mini s5570 and its from ORANGE vendor.
i want to upgrade my android 2.2.1FROYO to any new version
now as its from orange i had to unlock the sim lock so i want to ask that if i upgrade will it get locked again???
plzzz help

No, your phone doesn't get locked if you flash a new rom. I recommend you to flash the latest rom from sammobile.

Download something newer from samfirmware. And do you want custom rom, or just newer?

U can upgrade to gingerbread first, then u can use many custom roms try downloading latest version of firmware for ur region from sammobile..

Want to root my Samsung Galaxy s3 4G confused

Hello all,
I have read many posts about rooting the phone above but am confused.
All i want to do is root the phone and keep the original rom.
If i root it then update to 4.1.2 jellybean when its released for my phone do i have to root it again?
I really need to know step by step the process so i dont mess it up.
Firstly i beleive i need to backup my iemi is this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1946915 the correct procedure?
I then save that file it generates incase i need to restore is this correct?
I was then going to use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125414 but am confused where it says "Flash an Insecure Kernel before using Samsung Quick Root".
Where do i find an insecure kernal for the above phone?
I then read about ClockworkMod Recovery what does this do and should i use it?
Can someone please help me step by step as im really new to Android.
Sorry for so many questions but coming from years having an iphone to Android its like wow.
Cheers and thanks in advance.

Obagleyfreer i read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32235061&postcount=1 and unsure of part 13.
I want to root but just keep the standard rom that the phone came with.
Also if i update to 4.1.2 jellybean do i need to backup and root again?

You just need to flash the zip that's linked in part 13 to get root access.
You do this in CWM recovery.

Hi
Seems like you ar pretty novice to this.
If you root you cant update to latest from Settings -》About -》 Update. Root makes it imposible that way.
Instead you have to flash the latest rom from www.sammobile.com using Odin (windows) and rootvit again.
Or you wait till some one kind pre roots the rom and makes it flashable through Clockworkmod (easiest way)
All the strange words you have to look up your self.

Ok i check www.sammobile.com and i dont see a version of 4.1.2 jellybean for my phone.
Will the international versions of 4.1.2 work on my phone?
Will they have bloatware or carrier logos?
When i flash a rom do i have to flash the modem as well?
Can i just flash rom over rom or should i clean the cache first?

Its not released yet for every country. I dont find it for sweden either.
And you can expect the same thing from updated rom as the rom you are on now.
The roms from sammobile is only for your country becaus it contains the proper modem and apn info for your country and carrier.
As I said before best way to get a rooted and neat rom is letting the experts in xda compile a version that is flashable through cwm.
Look in the description if modem is included.

Why did you get a branding of your S3 mini? You write the original firmware for your phone was CNX on vodafone? I`m sorry but at the S3 mini I do not know CNX ... But you can not take for a branded smartphone a unlocked firmware because we have no CWM.

Okay but why you do not take this rom. As long you have not the L version of the S3 mini then is this rom fully compatible. Faria has included all languages ​​and therefore it is a European version with all system languages. I hope you understand me? For L version please take this rom. Both of them have full root.

Edit:
As long as you still get into download mode, it is not yet broken.

Custom firmware after cf auto root (SHV-E210S)

Hello everyone,
I am a bit of a newbie concerning android. I've just bought a galaxy s3 (SHV-E210S) in S. Korea.
I've found a great topic about how to root my phone but I still have a big question to which i didn't find any answer yet :
once I have rooted my phone using the CF-Auto root method (which is described as the easiest method to root), what do I need to do to install a custom firmware?
Thanks for your help and have a great day!

You read and follow the instructions for the custom firmware you choose .
It would pay you to read the faqs and guides before blundering into trouble .

Thanks for your answer.
What i meant is can I install a custom firmware directly after having rooted with the CF-Auto Root method or do I need to install a custom recovery too?

CF Auto-Root doesn't include custom recovery so you need to install it separately or use MobileOdin Pro instead.

CF Auto Root for Galaxy S3 SHV E210S
Hello All,
I need to root (just root) my Galaxy S3 SHV E210S which runs on KSJMF1 (Samsung Official Firmware)
Can i use the CF-Auto root from this link ?
download.chainfire.eu/273/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-c1skt-c1skt-shve210s.zip
Also, Does the same CF-Auto-Root can be used to root all firmwares of SHV E210S (Say, KSJLL6) ?
Pl clarify.
Thanks.

If you want the custom Rom as zip ( such as CM10.1 ) . you must have the custom recovery first .

i got a question about flashing my S3-E210S is running on stock rom and is locked. i downloaded the official Samsung E210S firmware latest update for Samsung and planning to flash my S3-E210S with it. my question is, can i use odin v3.04 in flashing the official stock firmware? Or i still have to root the phone?
Problems: S3-E210S
* Can't use camera "Security Policy restricts the use of Camera"
* Cannot Use Bluetooth also restricted
* cannot mount memory card also restricted.
Files i got:
1. SKT-E210SKSJMF1-20130604110212
2. Odin v3.04
My S3-E210 about info:
Model Number: SHV-E210S
Android Version: 4.1.2
Baseband Version: E210SKSMD2
Anyone can answer though...

You need to reed the basics first .
Root has nothing to do with stock rom flashing .
Standard stock rom is via Odin .

So, where can I get working recovery tool for my Galaxy S3 LTE E210S? It's running with kitkat 4.4.4. Do a favor for me!

[Q] How to use OTA with a rooted S4 Active?

Hi dudes,
hope you can help me. I had several HTCs in the last years with customs roms.
Since eight weeks I own a S4 Active (my first Samsung). As usual for me I rooted it (for Titanium Backup and so on).
Now I want to update my phone via OTA, but it says "Your device has been modified. Cannot update". It is still the stock rom on it.
I tried Trianlge Away, but it wasn´t successfull - the counter is still 1 (if it is 0, the OTA will work or not?).
What I have to do to update my S4A (I don´t want to use a custom-rom atm)? Maybe it is a dumb question - but I am a Samsung-Noob...
Thanx a lot and merry xmas to you all.

I'm looking for it as well, I saw something about it last week but I don´t remember were (wich xda post) I saw that.
I has something to do with install the root and then install the cwm original or something like this, if I am lucky to find it i post the solution in here for you.
Hope someone help us!

I am not to sure about the OTA updates with the International version. Did you just root the phone? No custom ROM or kernel changes? I will do some research on it though. Interested for my own knowledge as well. I know there was a method for returning the counter to zero with my s3 which might be the case.

Yup, just root it! Not even installed CWM, and just by doing it it says that I have a custom ROM and cannot update. Sad...

I think you flashed a custom kernel to root your phone. Chainfire's is the only one I know?
The Problem with Triangle Away is that the counter won't go down to zero as long as you are on a modified Kernel.
So you will need to flash original stock Sammy Kernel, then use Triangle away and the counter should go down to zero.
That's my experience with this, hope this helped.

Thanks for the tip, I will wait for a big update (kitkat) so all the flashing and backup will be justified. Tks!
