Guys, unbranded, non-rooted GS3 UK owner.

Currently have the disastrous 4.3 down-date. Is there any way I can flash back to the previous FW without rooting? Does Odin do this?

Device details:

Model number:
GT-I9300
Baseband ver:
I9300XXUGMJ9
Kernal ver:
3.0.31-1902166

Dont worry though you can easy roll back outa that gammy update and not even void yer warranty.
Catch u later pal :beer:
 
I've forgotten all my login details for XDA and the captcha system to reset my creds really doesn't like me, so I can't download Odin from that thread. I've sent the admin an email and will let you know once I have it!

Thanks mate. Later.
 
On bus home with a sore foot :(
U should b able to just google "samsung odin download" or something i think m8.
I use same login for everythin coz ma memorys dead lol. If i had money or anythin interesting to hide id be a hackers wet dream :-)

My phone shows the exact same details as yours (I'm on Vodafone)

I have odin 1.85, but should I use v3.09?

Can someone post a link to the exact download of 4.1.2 I should use please? There seems to be so many options!

Cheers

Nick
 
Just been reading through XDA to see if i can fix my problem and saw this, seems flashing back to 4.1.2 from 4.3 could be a bad move, something about it messing up your IMEI because of different efs versions.

I'm not that clued up about all this but i thought it might help in this post so i'll post the link. It may have no bearing on what you want to do but it also may have.

*** ATTENTION *** STOCK FIRMWARE I9300XXEMG4 -> Changes EFS Folder - xda-developers

EDIT - Mods / Admin etc can delete this post if they think it is no help to the OP.
