Children, all those who SGS3 version of T-Mobile (SGH-T999), be careful! Most likely, all the hacks presented here you will not do! Curators, bring information to the cap. If anyone has this model and you want to unlock, then not even risk using any software for unlocking, they will not fit, and you risk to get hold of the brick. To unlock your smartphone, you need to write in support of T-Mobile. herehereeverything is written. You will be asked IMEI, whether you paid the full amount and will be asked to send a check by fax. Unfortunately the only way scans they do not accept the mail. After the procedure you must send a PIN to unlock. For communication with support for using chat.

But there we are talking about SGSIII from T-Mobile, and then by AT & T, so that is not a fact ...

They are all Americans kvalkome. This causes particularnational huntingwith IMEI and simanlokom. Way to restore the lost bear them have already found, is not just a copy / paste EFS folder, as we do, it's a whole list of activities, with the connection device in the COM-port compatibility and firmware IMEI special utility kvalkoma. Against this background, I think soon will simanlok. By the way can any man have to write :)

magicm3n,
The fact that I have laid out - effective morelocale (could not this prog including Hebrew), but apparently, the American is not suitable. It is impossible to turn what was originally there, and perhaps, csc is not relevant in the Americas.
Information found on XDA and personally tested.

Comment:
interface language included instantaneously keyboard - after a reboot (perhaps after selecting a different clave and return to sasmsungovskoy)

For example, one frame of Yerevan was very pleased, outdoor swimming Armenian.
Hebrew is also always present, but not included in the interface from a typo, but the keyboard - if not specified in the list.

MiniFAQ (newcomers must read )

In: Information about version 4.3 \ 4.4.
ABOUT:Infa important for ownersi535 - after firmware 4.3 previous methods of obtaining root and install rekaveri can lead to the death machine (but can be revived), this for obtaining the above read instructions here . It is also important information for those who have not yet unlocked the device. Software unlock works only on version 4.1.1, so that at first do it, and then sew 4.3 and above.

Important infa for L710 (Sprint), is online a lot of people can not set up your phone by the operator on the 4.4 version of the firmware, you need to roll back the bootloader to 4.1, and it is blocked. So be careful, because you can get a mini-tablet.
.

After the firmware 4.3 \ 44 you get a new bootloader, which does not reduce (if you know how to lower - share with us knowledge), and if the firmware has been updated over the air, then he is also blocked (as far as I know, I myself am not updated on air and one). Firmware that you want to flash at 4.3, should support the bootloader, or snaps. It follows that any or firmware from Samsung (model or original) is below 4.3 or cyanogen (or based on it) below nochnushek 11th version not proshyutsya. At the same time, be careful for the firmware of the 11th cyanogen and firmware based samsungovskoy 4.3 require the latest versions of rekaveri. They can deliver the following programs:В® ROM ManagerandВ® TWRP Manager. Do not pound yourself into a dead end, you will have a new bootloader, old rekaveri and formatted partition system, at the same time not be able to flash the phone, one (there have been cases).

UPD : Who has a problem withSTATUS7- the method to revert to custom firmware (for example, SCH-r530) from alpane +

Q: What does the unlock (unlock) and why it should be done with our devices?
A: The US and Canadian modifications officially sold only in carrier stores in these countries and can only work with the same operators, ie, if you insert a sim card from another operator, the telephone part will not work until you unlock the phone. In this state, the phone is locked (locked). to unlock the phone code may be obtained from the operator for a few dollars, or else buy somewhere cheaper, for example on eBay, this code is issued for each device unique. After you enter the device code in it will be unlocked (unlocked) and will work with all operators. Models that can unlock officially by code - it's i747 / i747M, T999 / T999V, others only workarounds because GSM support is not stated in the other versions.

Q: Can fly unlock (unlock) program or legal when flashing?
A: No, as long as such cases were observed.

Q: I bought zalochenny apparatus for an unlock code do not want to buy, how to unlock the software?
A: Read in the header Links - Unlock and Recovery

Q: I bought a model with no declared support for GSM networks (this model R530, I535, L710), but I know that the GSM module is there, because used SoC from Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8960, in which there are CDMA and GSM. How do I make it work?
A: spoiler "Useful links" - "Unlock and Recovery" there is an instruction for the GSM module to activate i535 example, and not suitable for R530 and L710, as there is no slot for a SIM card.

Q: Did not work to unlock the GSM module, what to do now?
A: To use the device as a mini tablet, or if you live where there is CDMA operator, then go to him and give him his camera to adjust it to that operator.

Q: On what to pay when buying?
A: Turn the phone, check all the basic functions via the test menu (* # 0 * # in the phone): Speaker Elementary, appearance, the camera is recorded whether the sound of the video, proximity sensors, light, gyroscope, LED, vibration, wi-fi, catches if the network whether the mobile Internet work, bluetooth, etc .. also, check that the serial number and phone model on the packaging, on a label under the battery (judging from the forum it is often glue, Americans give for i9300), phone settings etc. . "About phone." Just under the battery, and the battery must be white square stickers - are indicators that tell whether the phone got into the water. If they are red or even come unstuck - then most likely it was submerged under water, so it is not recommended to take.

Q: Drivers with the i9300 can be installed on our devices or in some port?
A: No, completely different platform devices

Q: How are you doing with the Russian localization in the runoff firmware?
A: According to reports, Russian only in the firmware for SGH-i747 / i747M, SPH-L710, and for SCH-i535 from version 4.1.1 and ending 4.3 (inclusive), which is activated by the program Morelocale . 4.4 In Russian not .

Q: If I have not i747 / i535 / L710, then what about the Russian?
A: Set of fashion, which has Russian, mainly checked at random, ie, installing the firmware and check for the presence of Russian program Morelocale Or you can look through a firmware made events, and if it has a Russian, that means in the fashion it should be. Or act on the instructions of the spoiler "Useful links" - "How to port any modification of the flow of all US models?" and modified or ported for original EEPROM i747 / i535 / L710 to other devices. Or a third method - set CyanogenMod, AOKP, Miui (translated), and other firmware based on AOSP..

Q: So, you can buy this device, some modifications are best taken?
A: My rating of the most desirable models to the most undesirable. The best option - SGH-i747 / SGH-i747M, because amenable to software unlock it is Russian localization in the official firmware (up to 4.4). SGH-T999 / SGH-T999V - the same as the previous model, but does not include Russian in the official firmware ( there is a way russify see. spoiler with firmware ). SCH-i535 - originally LTE version, GSM module is amenable to unlock, in the Russian firmware (up to 4.4) is present. SCH-R530 - essentially an analog of the previous model, but at the expense of rablokirovki GSM - no information. SPH-L710 - not the most desirable model, there is no SIM slot.

Q: What are the differences in runoff firmware compared to the i9300?
A: At the moment, it is seen only one - there is no change in the color saturation of the display settings

Q: What is holding the battery in comparison with the i9300?
A: According to GSM Arena tests - better, but not significantly.

Q: How are you doing with the gaming performance compared to the same i9300?
A: The worst, Dead trigger on ultra high going well, almost without subsidence fps, NFS Most Wanted, too, Modern Combat 4 goes playable but not smooth, the average number of frames per second is generally lower than 25, it happens that falls to 15. but you can play. Wold Blood badly playable FPS on average 15-20.

Q: 2 GB of RAM really noticeable when you use? And in general in their daily work as a phone itself shows?
A: There are no brakes and lags not personally seen me, all applications run as fast as possible, the phone does not think it is not clear on what, 2 GB have an effect, allowing you to keep in memory dozens of active applications and even some heavy games simultaneously. Compared with the i9300 is a significant improvement in terms of multitasking.

Q: So what is better for me to buy, i9300 with 4 cores and 1 GB of RAM or the US-Canadian version with 2 cores and 2 GB of RAM?
A: To solve for you personally, what is more important - a great performance in games and heavy programs, or significantly better multitasking and energy efficiency, and less than the heating processor under load. The advantages to the i9300 can be attributed more timely and frequent official updates, no software pre-installed carrier, Russian out of the box, a bunch of alternative firmware, there is an official from Samsung support. For US versions support is provided by the operator.

Q: How does the phone with firmware CyanogenMod, AOKP, Miui et al.?
A: Full support of all equipment on responses charge holds better drainage. You can set and use every day.

In: SMS text messages to recipients come in the form of a question mark, what to do?
A: Go to the Messages - Settings - Input mode - Automatically

Q: What about mods runoff firmware?
A: Fashion is and they are not few, but the Russian is in the units, and those who can still sew on all devices - even less on this, we collect them in this hat.

Q: How do I get Ruth for my modifications?
A: See spoiler Driver, Kies, Odin, Toolkit, PC connection , in him SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 UNIFIED TOOLKIT . With this package you can get Ruth to 4.1.h firmware, custom rekaveri, firewood and other things. For 4.3 and 4.4 cm. Ruth CF-Auto-Root

Q: Does the display will suit \ Motherboard \ body from one model to another sgs 3?
About: displays themselves completely interchangeable. If you take on the motherboard, the situation is this - fit the board into the case with i747 to T999, and vice versa, boards are absolutely identical. We model GT-I9305 with SCH-i535 a similar situation. In i9300 payment only for the same model. Still need to pay attention to such a thing as a cover, where there are two notch - the SIM-card and microSD. These cover the same individual. For all US models are interchangeable, but for its i9300 only. Interchangeable battery cover on all models. Thank for the answerbyran7 + . Still something on this topic.

How to flash a phone?
Before you read this - first read the contents of the two spoilers to the above.
If you want to flash the official firmware from any other.
Official firmware from Samsung are sewn by Odin. Sami firmware picks spoilerStock firmware, fashion, modems, the CWM and TWRP Recovery for your model. If the firmware in the archive - unzip. You must be a file with the extension .tar / .md5. Next, read the spoiler Instructions on firmware - Preparing for firmware and Flashing through Odin .tar / .md5 . All congratulations, you flashed your phone.

Not to install the official firmware, nuclei, and all that is established not through Odin, (ie, it's all the files for the firmware, which are distributed inzip archives), you must have 2 things - it Ruth , Ie Administrator rights / rights of the super user, as well as modified recovery mode / custom rekaveri . The original rekaveri can not sew anything other than the official update, which come to the phone over the air.
First you need to get Root on your official firmware. To this end, the spoilerStock firmware, fashion, modems, the CWM and TWRP Recovery follow the link Ruth CF-Auto-Root and there look for and download the file for your model. After unzip and follow the instructions that in the spoiler Instructions on firmware - Preparing for firmware and Flashing through Odin .tar / .md5 . I myself did not use this method and I do not know if there is a superuser app (SuperUser, SuperUS and others) on this if no, then set any of the Play Store. All congratulate you rutovali your phone.
read of a custom spoiler For rekaveriInstructions on firmware - Flash CWM Recovery . Better to put CWM via Rom Manager, they are updated more quickly.

Now, with the help of a custom rekaveri, you can flash the modified firmware, kernel modifications, make backups, etc .. It is conditionally possible to divide the modified firmware into 2 types - a modified firmware based samsungovskoy firmware and based on AOSP. In the first case you get samsungovskuyu firmware tachvizom, but a modified way, as the author of the firmware so wish. Often such firmware does not contain a lot of programs that in his own opinion does not need, as well as have a modified kernel, which is more optimal and fast work (again - in the opinion of the author of the firmware) and a more flexible configuration of basic parameters of the nucleus. AOSP firmware most widely represented firmware CyanogenMod, AOKP, ParanoidAndroid and MIUI, there is nothing from Samsung, in addition to the nucleus, which are collected from source Samsung. For more information about firmware google.

To flash the firmware through rekaveri read instructions firmware - firmware update and modified firmware Samsung .zip (there are nuances, read more detailed instructions on the firmware of the author) and firmware update and CM, MIUI, AOKP .zip.

That's right. I just Russified native firmware for T959, i897, i997. T989 on the inside know that firmware. Can be partially replaced russify agribusiness such as a file manager, music player, video, notes, browser from the European version. Replacement frame settings and dialers will lead to inoperable system (software unusable). But the stability may be affected. If someone wants to translate, simply copying Russian values ​​from European also leads very often to crash or malfunction of AIC.


It is for T-mobile model inside I think they are the same with the i747.

P.S: Apparatuses for as many different, that they are worthy of creating a separate branch of the discussion and the more piercing. So, in my opinion, to add to the hat that i747 and t999 completely different cell phones and all the nuances of operation and firmware with the i9300 do not fit, or the topic will soon be clogged with questions about okirpichinyh Americans.

If I have correctly understood the essence of the question, so the answer (the accuracy of information 98.5%):

Rekaveri, the core system firmware itself suitable for both versions of the 747 and 747M. Sort of.

B - Why firmware for Odin in tar format does not become?
About - Because it it contains bootloader and other crap that stanovjatsja only on your device.

What can be done ? You can open the tar archiver, for example ALZip`om, and remove all unnecessary (aboot.img, rpm.mbn, sbl2.mbn, sbl3.mbn, tz.mbn) and try to flash. It is desirable to remove more modem (NON-HLOS.bin).

The most important thing is not to flash on the American nothing, absolutely nothing of the i9300, as it is a completely different device, similar in appearance only and the shell.

And yes, we can not particularly worry about losing IMEI, as for an American it can be restored even without a backup hereby this.
