[Q] should a ROM or firmware be location specific for international gs3 GT-I9300?

I am in Sri Lanka but I bought my fone frm the middle east. Is it possible to download any ROM or firmware for GT I9300 or should it be specific for my location? If I use for instance cyanogen or a new firmware which may not be specific to my country will it cause havoc or brick my sg3? Please help.

Cyanogenmod (or any other custom ROM) is not specific to any location mate. And its ok to flash stock firmwares meant for other regions in your device. Just don't flash any carrier branded firmwares or use a firmware meant for another variant of your device. :good:

thank you!
Thank you very much. Was so clear and straightforward. Cheersata!

[Q] Which version of stock firmware (CSC) to get from sammobile.com?

Hi guys!
I've ordered a SM-920F from amazon today , YAY
I want to download the stock firmware from sammobile.com to have ready just in case.
My question is, what version (or CSC) do I download ? does it really matter ?
Is there maybe a generic version not related to any carrier ?
I have no clue what country this specific phone was made for, all I know is it's unlocked.
Thanks guys !

Download Phone Info from the play store to see which country/version you're on, but basically you can download and install ANY 920F firmware.

As long as you didn't install the new 5.0.2. update you should be fine.

Unfortunately you are stuck with no root and no way to flash back with the OF1 update. This is their latest update.

so when i can acces to root, i just download Rom of 920I and install in my phone normally?

No, you can only use firmware that is made for your specific model number.

But i can't find the firmware I look every website and can't find it ok I just bought a another phone same model can I use that one to unbrick the the some model number

USE MTK CLIENT TO READ YOUR DEVIICES FIRMWARE AND THEN POST IT. I DIDNT BACKUP MINE AND I BOOTLOOPED IT. I NEED STOCK ROM TO FIX MINE. IF U NEED HELP ILL WALK U THROUGH IT.
