[Q] Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9308 .... how to root it? - General Questions and Answers

Hi All, how I can root the Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9308 (from China Mobile) in order to be able to install the google play (market)?

Just flash some firmware via odin wich includes it, if hardware is the same I assume that firmwares are cross compatible

UK stock ROM for 8010

Hi All,
I desperately need a UK stock ROM for 8010. I searched everywhere i could but no luck.
Thank you very much
Anyone?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Hi bud,
I just downloaded the stock euro rom and then changed my csc to UK. I couldnt find the UK variant for N8010 only N8000 (with 3g).
Find the ROM at:
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-N8010
I would go with ALGC ROM region DBT
Install with ODIN as usual
Then download CSC changer from play:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manniakk.cscselector
Change CSC to BTU which is the UK version of N8010. Changing the CSC will factory wipe the tab so do this before you reinstall your data and apps etc....
Hope this helps

Am I right to assume Samsung have still not released the upgrade for the 8010 anywhere in the world, let alone here in the USA? Anyone got any insights as to when we might see the official upgrade for the 16GB wifi-only N8010 device, which I would have thought to be one of the most popular devices out there (!?). I like the Samsung products, but their firmware upgrade methodology is not as slick as I was hoping.
I have a Note II phablet, and the suite upgrades will make the Note 10.1 much more useful, if the Note II is anything to go by.
Has anyone rooted and applied a compatible-ish firmware; how's it working for you?
Thx
Andrew
So after flashing the stock ics firmware how do you apply the otas from samfirmware? i allways get installation aborted when using cwm or mobile odin any help would be great.
Thanks

Also you dont have a i9300, thats the international version with different hardware, you have the sch-1535. Just flash this stock rooted image with odin http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1984436 and then use ez-unlock 1.2 which you can find on xda when you search for it to unlock. Then use goomanger or ez-recovery to flash a custom recovery.

First off, what phone do you have?
To Check:
System Setting -> About phone -> Model number
If it's other than Samsung SCH-I535, then you're in the wrong forum.
If it is, Samsung SCH-I535, we can help you.
Edit:
Your location is Finland, so I'm guessing your Model number reads I9300. If so, go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1563

Yes. Go to the correct forum I linked to and post there. They would be able to help you a lot better than we could. And no worries.

Samsung Galaxy s6 Not registered on network

Okay. so here is what happened. The new marshmallow update for the galaxy s6 came and i downloaded the update and started to install it. it failed at around 30% and rebooted my phone. I decided to try again and i downloaded the update and stll the same,but that's not the issue. after the second update attempt. i rebooted the phone that night and it was fine. but the next morning when i turned on the phone and tries to use my data connection it says not registered on network. My sim card is showing, i tried two different sim cards but the problem is still there. Im within the range of mobile service provider.
So what i did was i cleared the cache partition, the problem is still there.
i Factory reset my phone, the problem is still there.
So, Did anyone else face this problem?
If so, can you tell me how you solved it?
Can anyone help me with this issue.
I thank you in advance

The Csc doesn't have to match.
After flashing the stock ROM check if you have network service, that's how i fixed my problem.
After you flash the ROM just flash the TWRP like you normally do when you have a brand new phone.

I would recommend to use always ODIN if you are in 5.1.1 just be sure to flash the Marshmallow Modem and Bootloader firsts, then flash the ROM.

"Failed", that means the firmware which you tried flashing using odin isn't compatible with your device, best solution would be getting the right firmware from sammobile.
