[Q] Installing manufacturer stock rom on AT&T S3

Hi, I rooted my GS3 and it works fine, but I wouldn't mind having the default UI with it, as it's a bit better designed for the device than CyanogenMod 10 is.
The thing is, I'm not a AT&T user, can I install the original manufacturer version of the stock rom onto my S3?
Also, could someone provide a link for a download?

I assume you mean you rooted and flashed a custom ROM?
All stock firmware is available at sammobile.com

That's really not needed, but you still need to update your firmware/bootloader before installing a 4.2.2 AOSP ROM. If you read the CM10.1 thread, it was discovered that older (ICS) bootloaders do not play nice with JB 4.2 AOSP and will cause random reboots. CM10.1 (don't know about others) also won't install unless you're on a compatible bootloader.
To get the latest bootloader/firmware, you need to:
a) Odin to the latest AT&T JellyBean package
or
b) Download the I747 firmware package from here http://invisiblek.org/sgh-i747/ and flash it in recovery.

lol which part was uneeded thanks that is the EXACT answer i was looking for. i did find the smaller bootloader update package so i didnt have to install the full firmware..............and now i realize thats exactly what you linked to as well LMFAO sorry but thanks!!

Root: Newbie's questions about upgrading & updating

Hi everyone,
I'm a newbie to the community of everything rooting and post rooting. I have recently rooted my N7 2013 running 4.2.2 and flashed TWRP recovery/SuperUser by Chainfire/AOSP PA 4Beta ROM.
While I now understands how to update the ROM and how to get out of a bootloop and other similar rooting circumstances, I need help understanding the procedures involved in the below scenario :-
Should Android get an incremental or a major update,
1. Should I first update the Stock ROM followed by reflashing the custom ROM or just wait for the custom ROM to release their compatible update?
2. Should the Superuser have an update, that does have to be updated from Play Store or the update needs to be flashed? Also, does TWRP needs to be updated if there's an update because I have heard that some ROMs are compatible with recoveries from a specific versions? Is this true?
3. Is updating radios really necessary? Will updating the radios cause it to malfunction? What is the procedure if this needs to be done?
4. What do I do if I wish to chuck the custom ROM and return to stock ROM or what is called un-rooting?
If there's something I missed out on asking but needs to be done, please point me in that direction as well!
Thanks
Regards
Karthik

[Q] How to update to 4.4 from 4.2.2?

Hello I would like to know how to update from 4.2.2 ( Liquid Smooth 2.9) to 4.4. Do I have to update to 4.3 with knox removed and then flash a 4.4 rom? Can I use Odin to flash a 4.3 rooted official rom directly from 4.2.2?
Sorry for my bad English

You can just find a ROM you want to flash, read the installation instructions and flash away. If it requires you to update your bootloader, it'll tell you to do so. It might behoove you to read a few pages in the ROM thread, at least read the first and last two pages. Also pay attention to which version of cwm or twrp is recommended. Don't forget to do a nandroid in case something gets screwed up.

[Q] Can I install this Rom freely?

Hi, I have a note 2 n7100, I want to install the assassin resurrection custom rom but I'm not sure if I can.
My android version is 4.4.2 , currently on stock rom ( I just finished installing a fresh stock rom from sammmobile) and rooted my phone.
The rom is android version 4.1.2, will it cause any conflict? is there a way to avoid the conflict if possible?

I doubt there would be any conflict. The only thing that would remain from your stock rom would be the latest bootloader ND3. It should practically be safe to switch to an older version as long as you follow steps for your rom, but it doesn't harm to make a nandroid just in case you want to switch back

Alrighty Ill try it out
