Hello guys,
first of all, I have done my homework and searched the forum and google for an answer, but could not find anything with a definite answer.
here is what I found on this forum: (sorry, still can't post links)

My question is: is it possible to install the Samsung Galaxy S Middle East ROM on my Vibrant?
If, the answer is yes, then what are the consequences?
I mean well everything will work smoothly and without problems? or will I face some problems?
Best Regards,
Won't work.
Will probably soft brick you and you'd need odin to restore. Galaxy S Variants do not work well with other ROMs.
The Middle East ROM likely contains a different baseband firmware as well.

Thanks for replaying.
Have you tried it?
If so, what are the symptoms of doing so?
If not, how do you know?
and what makes you sure about that? is there an article that you can refer me to which have more details on this matter?
And if there is no way I can do that, does anybody knows about a ROM that have Arabic support and still able to work on the Vibrant?
The only ROM that I know about which has an Arabic support is the cyanogen and AFAIK I can't use it on the Vibrant.
If it's not vibrant specific you'll have issues.

Hi there, I recently got a SGS2 LTE (basically same thing as the skyrocket). I want to know how to root and install the latest version of ICS if possible. I've read a bunch of guides but I think the kernels mentioned in those guides are outdated and there are so many files I don't know which one to use. Pretty confusing if someone can help.
This is the wrong section, for your phone you want to be here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1399
I haven't heard of any ICS leaks for that phone so you are out of luck.
Don't use any roms from this section they will not work.
Dang sorry. Any idea if ICS will be coming to this phone by samsung or something?
Probably not. You're still in the wrong forum btw.

It´ll get the official ICS with TouchWiz propably in Q1 2012 according to this: http://www.netzwelt.de/news/89220-samsung-galaxy-s2-erhaelt-ice-cream-sandwich-update.html
The site above has the info from the italian blog HDBlog and they spoke with Samsung Italy
Greetings!
I am hoping to get some assistance on my problem with my gs2.
My gs2 is from Korea. it is an m250k version running gingerbread (rooted). My question is, have you guys tried updating it to a custom ics rom? I am really hoping to go through but I am hesitant because I have read a lot of people having bricked their devices.
Where would be the best place for me to start? Any advice or direction would be greatly appreciated.

You might get more help if you post your question in the Q&A section and not General post.
If a phone rings and it's not an Android, does anyone care?

You may have mistaken this site for Samsung Support. It isn't.
Folks on here help out of a sense of community, they don't get paid for it.
The person you just told to feck off is very knowledgeable and answers a heck of a lot of questions nearly every day.
I am on the same T-Mobile UK network as you and have downloaded from here the very ROM you are looking for, although that has been updated since them. I could easily do the same search on here and point you the link, but would you know what to do with the file? Or have you already fully read the Odin flashing instructions on here?
My first time here was with the HTC Compact III, I read for at least a week all the stickies at the top of each section. When I was sure I wanted to flash a rom, I read and re-read the thread and was as well prepared as I could be.
I am deeply indebted to all those developers and the more knowledgeable on here, who turn my phone into something very special. The least I can do is search before I ask, because nearly every question has already been asked.
i know what to do

The BOKE3 was the origonal firmware for the T-Mobile UK SGSII.
BOKF3, BOKG2 and BOKK1 are revised firmwares.
The stock kernels are there if you have rooted your phone with a CF-Root kernel and then reflash with the stock kernel to get rid of the warning triangle at bootup.
The one you are looking for is not a T-Mobile UK ROM, but rather a Samsung Stock ROM for Europe. Flashing that would invalidate the phone's warranty (if you had to take it back to service). That said, that ROM is really old. For newer versions of Samsung stock ROM then look * HERE *
you are good

as title says, i want to know can I flash russian/international rom on my indian phone with indian firmware? will it work fine? if no, then is it possible to port them? if someone know how to port then please give some guidelines for mtk device.
Solved
too bad i couldn't even get answer of a general question from community. anyway, i tested international (i.e. Russian version) rom on my phone. its working perfectly fine, all you have to do is just change the language at the first boot page. attached a picture as proof. so folks, international roms can be used, enjoy! :good:
Hello, this is my first time posting on here.
I have an old Galaxy S3, USA version, T-mobile, SGH-T999. I was wondering how to update it to make it usable? From what I've read online the best way is to root and put in a custom ROM. The problem I'm having is finding the latest ROMs. Is there any way to find the latest official ROMs for the phone? And if I download an unofficial one, how can I know which will run well on my phone? Do I just simply get the latest unofficial ROM?
Lastly, if any one has any step by step guide or video on how to root and install ROMs it would be much appreciated as I've never done something like this before. Sorry if this has been posted before, I'm new to this site and have been having trouble navigating and searching old posts.
Thank you.

I suspect the reason that you haven't gotten any responses in the last day or so is that you are on the wrong part of the Forum! This is the area for the Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 9.7" Tablet, not the Galaxy S3 Smartphone.
You might want to take a look over here for the T-Mobile S3.
Hope that helps clear things up
