Kies doesn't even know what root is.
Android does, they invented it (and they encourage it).
Samsung.....well...enough said.

lol, if u install a stock Firmware on ur Rooted device it will automatically 'Unroot' ur phone, so u can update ( if any available) ur phone as usual

Rule N° 1: Never get a Galaxy Ace.
Rule N° 2: If you can't update, flash.

[Q] I9300 Camera error

Hello, i am having a problem with my camera everytime i try to open it, the app returns me an error.
I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2006128 it says to me to launch the camera firmware utility with the command *#34971539#.
The problem is that my phone won't open that code, it returns me an error on factory test.
I already tried to flash several roms including the stock without root, no success.
If anyone know how to solve this i would be really glad if you post here
Thanks!

well flashing can't be guaranteed 100%. that's your own risk. you are directly into 2nd method? what about the 1st one?

Read Carefully then try

I would suggest flash samsung 4.0.4 firmware
Check the camera and then immediately flash 4.1.2 (latest one)

back to ICS may cause SDS "sometimes." though, you may try it. may be hardware failure!
is there a reason why ICS might get my camera working again?

in ics firmwares some memory error leads system to a hardware failure. so once you downgrade to ics, you need to upgrade to 4.1.2 ASAP once you check whether the camera is working or not. :good:

The hardware failure i understand, but what i am asking is, what happens in ICS that it will magically make my camera work again.

[Q] IMEI change

Hello
There is probably some thread already going on about this, but there's too much information i can't locate exactly what i'm looking for.
So my apologies in advance for bringing this up again.
My problem is my IMEI nr changed to 0049.... after i flashed the latest version of Omnirom on my Galaxy S3 I9300, and now i can't make any phonecalls nor receive text messages. Wifi seems to be working. Before it was running smoothly with Cyanogenmod.
So can someone please give me a step by step solution to fix this sjit? Or redirect me to the correct thread, or whatever that can get this issue solved?
I'm surely willing to donate to whoever helps me out.
Big thanks in advance!:good:

What i meant was if the phone needed to be rooted before flashing the firmware...
Meanwhile i flashed it, but i seems to be stuck on the Samsung-screen loader. Before that all apps were updated, but still stuck now loading....
Any more suggestions?
Yes: Boot into Recovery. This must be StockRecovery, otherwise your flash failed. Then do FactoryReset.

Looks at https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ for your specific firmware, if there's no, maybe you flash the PD2 firmware on you phone, It's same device, right? Only build date change.

Flashing a old or new firmware build on your phone, no chances of brick, unless your computer catches fire in the process.
There's TWRP for your phone in the reserved XDA forum? Flash it using Odin and flash SuperSU system-less. CF-Auto Root does it, flash a patched custom recovery and flash root package.
