hi all
total novice here :)
I have rooted my s3 and decided to remove apps that are safe and that I don't use, however I have deleted the Bluetooth on the galaxy by mistake ..is there any way I can get it back or put a new Bluetooth on ...

many thanks
 
Welcome to the forum Neil:hello:

You've got a couple of options. You can download and reflash your firmware with Odin. Firmware can be downloaded from here

Firmwares | SamMobile

You would need to reroot after.

Or you could download the firmware you need and then using 7zip on your pc, open the file and go to /system/app and extract the bluetooth.apk and transfer it to your phone. You'd then need to use a root file explorer from the play store and put the extracted Bluetooth.apk into /system/app and change the permissions (menu, permissions) to read write, read, read and then reboot. Sorry that's probably a bit confusing so if you need help just ask:)
