Hello,
I have a S3 LTE with I9305XXBMD5 4.1.2 version.
Can I install any other 43 version on it ? i.e XUEMKC or any.
Regards
Yes you can, but read the various topics about it very carefully, regarding the knox bootloader and possibly voiding your warranty
I don't have any warranty

Basically every topic with 4.3 here in the I9305 forum.. It is a lot, but you will learn even more.

If you want to flash 4.3, dont forget to use odin 3.09 and replace original modem with your region's one
I managed to install 4.3 and root my S3 LTE.
Now I only need to remove all that bloatware from it.
Some ideas?

What I did, was going to the TGP v12 topic here. In the opening post you can see which apps and other stuff was removed by the developer. I followed him, and deleted all the crap using Titanium Backup

I have flashed this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2110245 with ODIN in PDA mode, and now the phone have no signal, and Baseband is displayed as Unknown.
How can I recover the baseband ?
I have tried to make a complete wipe, but it did not help.
Proceed with this thread, and dig all the links up and even dig the sub links. Maybe it will help.
Btw one guy is presistant that you need a new mobo, but I doubt.

Thanks I will take a look.
Sure it can be done by software, because there is a samsung service tool, which cost a lot of money, and that can fix this only from software.
May I ask if you had any luck? I like the "solved" threads, they help me the most when I end up in a dark corner

It didn't work, so I sent the phone to a specialised service, they told me that there is a 50% change they can fix it and if not then I can throw the phone, and if they can fix it then it will cost $40-45

Have you tried it downgrading to GB? I suppose that's where your phone was working, right? Do you still have the warranty, if yes, flash everything back to stock and than try to send it to Samsung, but it can be that you phone regains the IMEI and other info back, have read this from similar threads from multiple devices with the same problem.
downgrading to GB did not help, I don't think the warranty will cover this...the custom flash counter is 16

I have flashed a modemfs from that thread as they described, but no luck.
maybe the phone was locked on some network and that's the cause for all the trouble. Try with triangle away to reset the counter, install GB as it was in the beginning, go to service and keep your fingers crossed. You have nothing to lose.

My phone was neverlocked, and it's multi-region, the original firmware had the same code as the Hong Kong phones, and I am located in Europe.
When I flashed this Russian JB rom, I got a warning message on the phone: WARNING: Custom Modem ! ...very strange !
That custom modem is responsable for the whole issue. Unfortunately my knowledge is limited and I'm unable to help you.
Still, my advice is the same: flash GB, reset that counter and go to samsung service. Probably they will discover that you flashed another FW, but at least you'll know if and how it can be repaired.

This is my understanding too. Bear in mind that as soon as official updates are released a developer here will make it available on xda. This means you often get updates before you would normally (because they are rolled out at different times depending on carrier and region).

Once you install CWM, you can deodex your stock firmware without any problem :good:
No need to flash another ROM to do that.

Odexed roms work faster than deodexed. If you don't plan to modify your rom don't deodex it. Though there are many mods for odexed roms too.

The update is only for c5302 Sp models.... If you update your c5303 modern with .284 you will lose 4g connectivity but not much else.

what is going on is this a joke ?
i asked a simple quesiton and i saw these replies ?
my question is my boot loader locked ?
okay from the first comment i can see there is no root for this version yet
but i can downgrade this version right and then root this device from jelly bean ?
If your on nc2 there is no root and no going back to jellybean. Bootloaders are locked. So you pretty much stuck on the official kitkat like the rest of us. Even though not for long. I read somewhere that an exploit was found that will permanently unlock the bootloader but it won't be available till August some time. So we need to be patient.

thanks in advance for your help.
First, ask questions in the q and a section. Second you can root kk very easily. Thirdly if you want to downgrade just flash a ftf.
