Downgrading/Changing jellybean firmware on Galaxy SII
Hello All,
I have galaxy SII (made in korea ShW-M250s). I recently upgraded it to 4.1.2 jelly bean. But I encountered few problems like it does'nt support chinese language. I want to change the firmware specialized for China. but using Odin, it completes the process successfully but firmware turns out to be unchanged. Even I tried flashing the old 2.3.6 firmware again, but same result. this isn't helping at all. so I am finally hoping for you guys to help me out.
would be a great favour
if I can somehow make my phone support chinese it would be ok though.
thanks
Badar

AW: [Q] Problem while updating 4.0.4 to 4.1 and above
Dont want to be rude, but did you post in the right section? This is the q&a for the i9305, not for the i9300.
Have try with kies or otherwise with the jelly bean firmware from sammobile for your s3 and odin.

[Q] I flashed Jelly Bean firmware from Russia, should I update it via Kies.

Hello I am new here and this is my first post.
I flashed the Jelly Bean update via Odin, its version was I9070XXLPY, now when I connect my phone to my PC and launch Samsung Kies, it tells me that an update is available, a new firmware I9070XXLQ4 is available.
My question is that should I update it via Kies or not, is it safe?

Thanks a lot for the quick answer my friend, I have added a thanks to you.
Something I don't understand, how will I damage my phone if I update it via kies? Isn't that stuff like, Official
And by the way, you are from the same country as I am, any ideas when we might receive the Indian Official version of Jelly Bean for i9070?

Lol. Thanks
And it might not damage your phone, but why take a risk? So, just clarified it to you
Well, I heard that we would be getting jelly bean by mid april, but still no update so far!
Samsung is just postponing the update I'm also waiting for the update :fingerscrossed:

Just one last small thing, for future reference, currently I will update to firmware LQ4, and when in future the Indian JB update rolls out, can I download it from sammobile.com and flash it over Russian LQ4 formware via Odin?

How To Downgrade to GB 2.3.7?

Hi guys I'm running CM11, ICS 4.2.2 on my Galaxy Ace, GT-S5660D and want to downgrade to the original OS the phone came with, I believe it was GB 2.3.6 or 2.3.7. My phone is rooted but I have no idea how to bring it back to the original Android version. Any help would be appreciated!

really simple my bro
first download the firmware from sammobile
then flash it via odin
just select the rom carefully for your GT-S5660D variant
dont download the rom of I or C variant it will brick your phone
if you have any problem ask for help

Thanks for the quick response!
I'm not sure what odin is and I don't think I used it when I flashed CM11 onto my Ace.

Thanks this looks promising. But when looking at this site http://www.tsar3000.com/Joomla/inde...laxy-ace-firmwares&catid=55:samsung&Itemid=82 there's no Canada under S5830, only European countries. Should I download the Canadian firmware under S5830D?

Before you install anything, is your phone GT-5660D or GT-5830? Make sure to download the original firmware for your device. Installing any firmware meant for another device on your phone can, in the worst case, hard-brick your device. As for the firmwares, you can download the one that is near to your region. In fact, any regional firmware for a particular phone will work on it. You can also find all the Samsung Galaxy Ace firmwares in the following link,

Hope I Helped

I just did it with the help of that thread. Thanks all.
