Downgrade 4.2.1 to 4.0.4 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi ,
i wanna downgrade the 4.2.1 firmware jelly bean rooted in 4.0.4 ice cream, but is a problem i have the XXELKC and i don't find the 4.0.4 firmware for this kind of baseband , shall i install the 4.0.4 I9300XXBLH1 baseband ? it will work if i chose another stock firmware with a different baseband id ?
many thanks,
g00dness

You could flash some standard stock rom and then flash your baseband from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1740061 (its there). Or if the 4.0.4 rom is the stock rom of your carrier, there is absolutely no problem with flashing that

Just by curiosity, why do you want to do that?
You can surely find your carrier firmware at sammobile.com

You are officially the least helpful person on here.
On topic : If you want a particular baseband, just flash the rom you want and then flash whatever baseband you'd like from within cwm

Where did you get your 4.0.4 firmware dude? Could give me the link,please? I also want to downgrade my sgs3. Thanks!

Yes , 4.0.4 has better performance and all , but remember that it doesn't have the sudden death fix and your phone may die within 2days (happened to someone). You have been warned.

There's lots of guides on rooting you should always search first.
One thing: downgrade to 4.0.3 before doing anything.

2. how can i downgrade to 4.0.3
Download 4.0.3 from sammobile and flash through Odin. Then flash Siyah or Dorimanx kernel.
Sent from my potato running a potato.
You should spend a bit of time researching before you attempt anything.If you dont then youll be back on here whingeing about bootloop or Odin doesnt work....or bricked.
What is the point of telling you to flash a rooted kernel via Odin if youve not read the tutorials.
Or root,then flash a safe kernel using stock recovery>cwm.
And at the moment you are on firmware that could lead to a bricked phone if you do the wrong thing.

Why you don't update to 4.3? I has been reading the forum and i think that it's better to the phone be updated.

Go read the sticky thread in general forum, you are missing most basic knowledge.
As above, updating to latest stock rom is recommended. 4.0 will kill the phone memory.
Don't ask for rom recommendation.
