Yup, his phone never root before. If the phone rooted we need to unroot before flash stock ICS rom?

No but if you are rooted on gb and then upgrade using pc odin,then you will get triangle sign.i use mobile odin to avoid it.
And as you ain rooted you can simply flash it.

Try to full wipe first on gb bfore u upgrade.
Always better to do clean install when u jump version, to avoid problems.
Do wipe in gb first. Dont do any wipe in ics stock kernel.

Wrong. If you flash stock rom, no yellow triangle.
To the OP: try connecting via kies and do it that way first. If not, then do the pc odin method.

As you have an unrooted device why dont you try for an OTA update, you can sit back and relax while it does its work on its own, or samsung kies

Because you flashed a custom soft with ODIN PC, probably a kernel. You can use triangle away to reset the counter.

yes you can still update

Still while my counter is 1?

Can't find OTA update

Hi! I've been trying to download the OTA update on my phone but it stays on:
"Checking for available update.
Please wait..."
Anyone knows why? My phone is rooted by the way and bootloder is unlocked. Please help.
Sent from my MB886 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

When the device is rooted and is running stock ROM, the OTA updates are not working properly on most devices. For example, in my Galaxy Y, when I tried to install a new firmware it stopped during the installation and rebooted on the old firmware. Then it displayed the known s*** like "The installation was not succesfull. Please try installing the firmware using Kies".
Otherwise, if your device is running a Custom ROM, you can update to the newest version without a problem.

Ok. Thanks for answering. What if I unroot the device? Is it possible the update works if I unroot the device?
Sent from my MB886 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

If you unroot your device, you will be able to install a new firmware on it. Are you using stock or custom ROM?

I'm using stock ROM.

OK then. The solution is on the post 5. Unroot the device, install the new firmware and you can root the phone again if you want.

S3 root-> Odin mobile

Hey guys, it's safe to root my s3 gt-i9305 (Android 4.3) by Odin mobile? (I know I will lose my warranty). It's the same thing than use Odin for PC? I will use Cf auto root. Thanks in advance

I would appreciate a answer...

you can't use odin mobile unless you're rooted. so you can't use OM to root your phone, because you have no root priviledges required to run OM.
so, as long as you're non-rooted, you have to use desktop odin

But I can't plug the phone to my computer.. Give me always a error!

I moved from Miui to Stock using Odin Mobile and after that I was not able to connect my phone to my computer.
The error message basically says USB device not recognized or malfunctioned.
You can see my post in Q&A - no solution so far.
I am about to give up and trade in my phone with the telco.

are you guys able to connect in download mode? if yes, flash your firmware again using ODIN
maybe there's some issue related to bootloader/firmware version conflict resulting in USB issues
-------
EDIT: just noticed you've got similar answer in the parallel thread an hour ago

But.. I don't want do brick my phone again, I already bricked him once, I just want to root him, nothing else.. If Odon detect the phone and the PC doesn't there is any problem? The probability of brick the phone increase? Thanks
