[Q]3 quick questions re. 4.1.2 stock rom for restore

Hi,
I have three quick questions to ask. I have scoured this site but can not find definitive answers and so would be grateful if someone could help.
1/ What does build number 'jz054k' denote? I restored my N7100 to a stock UK BTU 4.1.2 rom from Sammobile and instead of the build N7100XXDMB2 showing, it now shows as 'jz054k.N7100XXDMB2'. When the handset was orignally stock, it showed as 'N7100XXDMB2' , without the 'jz054k' prefix. Does this prefix apply to all stock roms from Sammobile?
2/ Do the stock 4.1.2 images from Sammobile include a stock recovery, meaning you don't have to separately flash a stock recovery first?
3/ Why does the OTA update screen (Settings > About Phone > Software Update) change appearance depending on version of 4.1.2 installed? Do custom 4.1.2 roms change the appearance of this screen? Please see attached screenshots for the two sreens i've had displayed on my handset today. The first is from the stock 4.1.2 rom and includes the option to update over WIFI, the second only includes a 'check now' button.
Many thanks for any answers.

1) google doesn't name the firmware like xxdmb4 they name it like jz054k or something.
2) yes. No need to flash stock recovery.
3) yeah many custom roms do that. I don't think Sam mobile will upload a custom rom though.
Can you link to the file you flashed ?

Thanks for replying.
Yesterday, i had a fully stock N7100 running BTU N7100XXDMB2 4.1.2. I then installed the latest Philz Touch 4 recovery and the Android Revolution HD 12 rom. (I am now stock again though thanks to Sammobile).
I was not aware that the software update screen would differ between custom and stock roms (i realise that OTA only works on stock devices). I thought that this part of the Android settings just stayed the same. I would miss the option to disable the auto-check and wifi only options.
Thanks.

Hi,
Yes, i do know that which is why i have removed it.. for now.
It was just the software update screen differences which were confusing me as meant to be close to stock.
Thanks.

[Q] Wich JB-version and ROM for my GT-N7000 (Note I)

Hi,
I’ve still have installed the original (Samsung) Android JB 4.1.2 version on my Note GT-7000. Could you please tell me what is at the moment the latest smootht working ROM for my phone? Should I install this ROM, do I still keep the Samsung software and its gadges (like “air view” & “Voice talk” ) for this phone, or will they be gone?
Also, do I need a newer Android version (JB 4.2.2, JB 4.3.0 or even JB 4.3.1) to be installed as well (seperately) or will one of these versions will be installed with the ROM at the same time? If one of these working JB versions needs to be installed seperately as well, could you please give me the right link where to download this JB version for my Note? I am asking you this, because I do not know if a smooth working ROM is depending on the JB version installed.
I hope you can help me out here.
Thank you!
Robert.

Hi and thanks for checking.
You posted this in a Sprint Note II forum so I've tagged your thread to see if the moderators can help you get to the right spot.
None of the ROMs that we have would be compatible with your device.

[Q] Update via Kies

Hello,
Sorry for the Noob questions but here goes... Device info first, then the questions
Rooted T989 with Bombaridier ROM (from galaxys2root . com)
ROM Specifics -
Current Firmware Version (per Kies) - PDA:KID / PHONE:KID / CSC:KID
Android Version - 2.3.5
Baseband Version - UVKID
Kernel Version - 2.6.35.11 (Synergy kernel)
...and the questions
1. Can I update via Kies since ROM is not Stock and device is Rooted, or will it fail. ( I get prompted by Kies everytime I connect the phone, asking me if I want to upgrade the firmware version )
2. If successful, will I lose root after flashing
3. Will new ROM contain all the T-Mobile bloatware and other crap that I don't want or need
4. Does anyone know which Android version (4.?.?) was last released for this phone / correlates to this firmware that it will get updated to from Kies? PDA:MC6 / PHONE: MC6 / CSC:MC6 (TMB) is what Kies is offering
5. If answer to question #3 is "Yes, bloatware and other useless crap will be there", than would someone be so kind as to recommend a fast, stable, bug-free JB ROM with good battery life for this phone?
Many thanks in advance, and apologies for the multitide of questions.
Regards.

1. If your phone is detected by KIES, the phone should update no problem.
2. You will lose root but it is very easy to gain it back.
3. Yes it will contain bloatware. Currently I am using Speed Stock Reloaded.
4. The android version is 4.1.2

FYI...
Flashed the phone via Kies update with no problems. Lost root, but re-rooted. Used Titanium Backup to backup and delete all the crap that was not needed, and created a backup with ROM Manager. Phone was running great with Stock 4.1.2 but then flashed with SuperNexus ROM for a more vanilla Android experience since I was giving the phone to my wife. Very fast, stable and problem free ROM if anyone is interested.
Thanks for the information. Much obliged

[Q] What Firmware do I have to install

Hey guys,
I bought a rooted Galaxy S3. On the back of the phone I can read the following: SGH-I747 16GB
Afterwards I checked the information of the current firmware: Model: SGH-T999, Base Band Version: I747UCLH9 (Android Version 4.1.1)
Now I would like to update the firmware to Android 4.3 (ideally a german firmware).
But now I'm not sure, what firmware I have to use. I'm afraid, I'll crack the phone, if I install the wrong firmware.
Thanks a lot for your help :cyclops:

Please edit your post and delete the S/N number. Never disclose this or your IMEI.

If I were you, I would not update to a stock 4.3 ROM because the 4.3 ROM will include Knox. I also recommend backing up your imei and nv folder before flashing ROMs.
Is your phone unlocked? If not, you can try using the free unlock method to permanently unlock it.

Thanks for your good tip. Unfortunatelly it's the phone of my girlfriend.
That's why I would like not too much changes in design and functionality of the phone.
I'll surely backup the device before changing anything. The phone is already unlocked.

Is it possible, to install the rom I9300XXUGML2 on this phone?

No any I9300 roms could hard brick.

Thanks a lot. So I think, I would have to use the I747UCUEMJB for the phone.
If I install the stock rom, can I change the default language (incl. keyboard) to german (I'm afraid that it's not working because of Knox)?
And if it's not possible to change the default language, which firmware would you recommend, which looks exactly or nearly the same as the Original one?

The back of the phone indicates that it is an AT&T s3 (i747) but the firmware says it's a T-Mobile s3 (T-999).
Looks like there is a mismatch on the firmware.

That's the problem I have. I'm unsure which firmware I should take.
The guy I bought the phone from told me that he bought it in China. And I think he already bought it as a rooted phone.
We bought the phone and everything works fine 'til today. I know, never change a running system. But an update with all the new functions and bug fixes would be really great. And because it's my girlfriend's phone I don't like to change the firmware to one which looks differently than the actual one...

If it were me, I would just flash the stock AT&T.

Ok, so I'll install the firmware I747UCUEMJB
If so, will the phone still be rooted? I have to change the language to german after installation. And like I know it shouldn't be possible, if the phone isn't rooted anymore...

You can't just flash a stock AT&T 4.3 ROM in Odin because there is no such file. You would have to flash a completely stock AT&T ROM and then update to 4.3. I'm not sure that AT&T ROMs have German as one of the languages.

Well, technically it would still be rooted (at least that happened to me), but also dunno if it has German language

Thanks a lot. So the easiest possibility would be not to flash the stock at&t rom and update the rom, which is already on the phone.

Your phone is an sgh-i747 which is an AT&T s3 but the operating system is a T-999. If this is right, there is definitely a mismatch between the phone and operating system.
If you want the 4.3 ROM on your phone, install a custom recovery and flash firmware that's made for the d2att.
I googled I747UCLH9 and I found this: http://androidromupdate.com/tag/i747uclh9/
Where do you see T-999 in your phone?

On preferences - Information of device (sorry, I don't exactly know how it's in english):
Model number: SGH-T999
Android-Version: 4.1.1
Base band version: I747UCLH9
Built Number: http://bbs.romup.com

Boot your phone into recovery mode. Do you have a custom recovery installed?

Bootloader 4.4 and Firmware T999UVUEOH1

Hi guys, I have T999 I am on Likewise 4.1 dtmo and currently on the T999UVUENC2 modem/bootloader, which is version 4.3. I have not updated my phone in a while and now I'm searching the forums and have 2 questions:
1. Should I update my bootloader/modem to T999UVUEOH1? I have read that it fixed the stagefright bug. (I found it on sammobile)
2. Some ROMs in the ATT section, such as the S3 R3ARMED, which is also made for T999, call for the use of a 4.4 modem and bootloader, but there is no such thing available to us. How can I proceed to avoid a brick?
Thanks!

I just updated it and there is nothing new. Just keep calm and stay at NC2, i will test it's performance and battery life

Why don't you download the stock rom from SamMobile?
Btw, this stock rom is WAYYYYY better than NC2. Better performance and very good battery life
