Hello! I'm new to XDA Developers, so pardon my noobiness.
Basically, I purchased a galaxy gear off ebay, but my samsung galaxy S3 is only running 4.1.3 as stupid Telstra have not rolled out the 4.3 update for the S3 GT-i9305T. I was able to connect my galaxy gear to it by installing gear manager, and most features work... except the apps. When I try install an app, this error comes up: "Installation Failed. Try again later.(0)" and I have no idea what to do.
Basically what I'm wondering if there is a fix for this, or if it is possibly to somehow install 4.3 if my carrier hasn't rolled it out yet.
Thanks!

Any ideas? =/

So far you are at the right place.
Go to the top of this page and where it has a box that says "Type To Find Your Device" .....
Put in your phone model there and then go to the forum dedicated to your phone. there you should be able to find information about rooting and unlocking your phone.
You could then install 4.3 or 4.4 depending on what you want with the instructions provided there.

Hey guys!
I bought my Galaxy tab in turkey for a vacation, and when I came home I tried updating it but it can't. The only thing I get is : This version of the device cannot be updated.
I have updated kies to latest Ver. 2.0.2.11071_128.
I have searched several time, but no luck in finding what I wanted.
Sometime ago, my GTAB was Vivo branded (a Brazil's carrier) and Android 2.2 was installed. When I tried to update using Kies, it showed the same message.
After a while, my GTAB was sent to fix a problem and it came back with a non-branded ROM. After this, I could install Android 2.2.1 ROM without problems. So, the problem is because Vivo hasn't released yet a 2.2.1 ROM, so my device couldn't be upgraded. I can't have 100% sure that it is what is causing your problem, but I think it is a good place to start searching.
Thanks,
Ronan.

Well the answer is obvious. You already have the latest official firmware for your device.
If you want newer version you will need to go install a custom rom.

Hello guys,
I've been using XDA for a long time to figure out problems related to my devices. Recently I bought Samsung Galaxy S III LTE in Pakistan, having baseband I9305XXBMA2.
I searched a lot to find any link to give me a stock 4.3 update for my phone but I couldn't get one.
I shall be really greatful if you could let me know any way to update it, but seriously I don't want to root my phone. But if rooting is the only option to be left, please let me know.
Thanking you in advance.

Hi
Your current firmware allows you to root the phone easily, and you can then use Mobile Odin to upgrade to 4.3 without losing root. Stock 4.3 firmware has Knox bootloader which prevents you from rooting, modding etc. I would advise that you search XDA for 4.3 discussion to learn a bit more about Knox bootloader.
Since you are not interested in rooting, search for your region's 4.3 firmware here:
1) http://www.sammobile.com
2) http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9305
You need to understand that you cannot downgrade from 4.3 firmware without tripping Knox flag.
Good luck.
I just brought a gear that come with software version v700xxuamii and I wonder if I can root this version to use the gear with an iphone 5s.... I'm new on android and galaxy if any one can help me....
Thanks in andvace....
Rooting won't make any difference when it come to compatibility
You can always downgrade firmware. Check the rooting and tutorial threads as they contain pretty much all the answers
i just installed that version on my Gear (after hosing it) then proceeded to flash TWRP then null 23 - no issues what so ever

I just recently purchased a Galaxy Gear online and apparently it isn't a US model. I don't think it's a fake, it's just from another country. It runs Android with no problems, but I would like to upgrade to Tizen. When I connect to Kies 3 however, it doesn't show that there is an updated firmware available. I'm not afraid to flash Tizen manually, but so I need to flash the ROM specific to the country this device was made for?

hello everyone
i like to start of with sayin hello to everyone and appreciate all the help i receive.
i have a Samsung galaxy s3 mini for 2yr and im in uk and i been seeing other phones running newer firmwares like lollipop and it feels and looks nice and would like it on mine. My s3 mini is currently running android version 4.1.2 and its been like that since new and doubt it get any updates now,
can i update this to a newer firmware please and a step by step process thanks as ok ish with phones know basic stuff but not a genius.
once again thank you all
yes you can. the phone will need to be rooted, custom recovery installed & a couple of other tools on pc,ie odin. there are many great guides & tutorials in these forums, so have a look around, read a little learn a lot, like we all did. decide on which rom works the best for you and go with that one(that will be the best rom),dont ask!!!!!. follow all instructions carefully & most of all...enjoy the ride... if you have any difficulty then just ask
Hello thank you.
I'm typing this from my s3 mini. It has been rooted with kingroot the rooting is ok now needed to allow permission.
So it's ok for a Uk Samsung galaxy s3 mini be updated to later firmware. I read couple guides on here with the cynam rom.
Has is got to be done by odin?.
I also read that can be done with rom manager app is this true?.
What is the latest and stable firmware for samsung galaxy s3 mini GT- i8190n?
Also erm What's a kernel and has that got to be done?
On the downloads page I choose my model and cyamogen then is it recovery or odin I download?
Thank you to everyone
