Genovese:(just to be sure) turn off your phone . then press and hold volume down + home button + power button , stop pressing the key combinations as soon as you see the samsung logo come up...after the samsung logo , you'll see something like 'downloading' and below it you'll see 'continue' use volume up to 'continue' ....you'll see variant of your device , be it sm-g900f or sm-g900h as the case may be. |

WatchOn is a cool app for me cos i have devices I control with it at work. Chat On is a rubbish app tayoast: |

eromspete: I understand. In as much as it's useful for you, retain it. But most of them are downright useless. |

abbeyboyz54: That firmware is Jellybean. Why not get the ported Kitkat for your S3? |

Genovese:you aren't rooting here , you're simply flashing a stock firmware |

anybody with s4 for sale (30k) ? |
Re: Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note 2 & 3 Expert by airsaylongcon: 5:08pm On Feb 23, 2015 |
toy75: I am not to sure you will get a good one at that price o! A good unrefurbsihed one will be going for aroung 35k...I suggest you get the i9505 or i9506. These use a SnapDragon processor which in my opinion is superior to the Exynos used on the i9500. |

Hi guys, I'd like to update my Samsung G3 from kitkat to lollipop. It has never been rooted and I am yet to get an update. I'd like to have a feel of the lollipop experience. Please how do I go about it without tampering with my files in phone storage. Attached is a picture of my phone info.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note 2 & 3 Expert by tayoast(m): 5:45pm On Feb 23, 2015 |
igbsam: Your phone details reveal you're on 4.3 - Jellybean. There's no official Lollipop for s3, but there are loads of custom ROMs running OS 5.0 for s3. Your best alternative is to get the ported official kitkat for s3 |
Re: Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note 2 & 3 Expert by airsaylongcon: 6:54pm On Feb 23, 2015 |
igbsam: You are going to need a Custom ROM. Its a bit of a technical process to install custom ROM but after the first time, I bet you will have fun trying out several ROMs. The Lollipop on S4 turned out not to be a big deal after all. Just made the phone similar (interface-wise) to a Note 4. And sucked a sizeable chunk of the memory |
Re: Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note 2 & 3 Expert by igbsam(m): 7:06pm On Feb 23, 2015 |
airsaylongcon: Oh Okay.....so what do I need to do and where can I get a stable custom ROM ? Like the steps I need to follow. |
Re: Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note 2 & 3 Expert by igbsam(m): 7:07pm On Feb 23, 2015 |
tayoast: Where can I get the ported official kitkat and what process do I need to follow to get it done and wouldn't end up messing up d fone |

igbsam: Just clicked the link myself and it opened. Try again |
Re: Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note 2 & 3 Expert by igbsam(m): 9:37pm On Feb 23, 2015 |
tayoast: It has opened. Thanks. will go through it. |
Re: Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note 2 & 3 Expert by airsaylongcon: 11:02pm On Feb 23, 2015 |
igbsam: U are gonna have to Google that up. Try search terms such as "Lollipop rom for i9300" or something along those lines. U r gonna have to "hack" ur phone a bit to install custom recovery such as Philz touch. Once u r able to install that recovery it's a breeze from there |

Avatar: tayoast: No, flashing on ODIN only wipes recovery, system, data and cache partitions. sdcard partition is safe. So no, it won't wipe ur internal memory. But there is no harm in backing up. chidi4eze: If the phone didn't have fm radio function previously, a new software won't change dat. it's like asking if a new software can add camera to ur phone or make ur screen bigger. lol 1 Like |

austino677: Actually, Im looking for a JB (4.3) .pit file. Seen none on XDA Thanks |
Re: Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note 2 & 3 Expert by Saipro(m): 2:28am On Feb 24, 2015 |
Stanley08: If you're flashing the full firmware, there's a reasonable chance Odin might wipe your internal memory too - especially if it involves changing OS versions (upgrade or downgrade) |

Re: Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note 2 & 3 Expert by airsaylongcon: 6:07pm On Feb 24, 2015 |
Ugochux: Did you get it brand new? Or pre-owned? I had a pre-owned Samsung phone that suffered that issue. Turned out the phone had suffered tremendous water damage. My first advice will be for you to reinstall d Os using odin |
Re: Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note 2 & 3 Expert by Ugochux(m): 10:28pm On Feb 24, 2015 |
