Is not a gs3 so none of the firmware or mods on this forum will work.
The variables involved to advise you further are too great and risky.

Please do not expect I9300 firmware to be of use to you . As you do not have a Samsung phone suggest you use Google .
This forum is not for you .
If you buy a fake you need to find a fake forum .

IMEI is not the phone is it .
You said >>> i bought fake galaxy s3.
my rom is android 4.1.9.>>>> Is fake no 4.1.9 for SGS3 .
Connect to Kies for an upgrade .
how can i be sure that its fake one>>>> read the thousands of fake SGS3 posts on the web.

You have been answered already - this forum is not for your device, you're asking in the wrong thread, people wouldn't know (and you didn't even state what device you actually have).
It's in your own interest to find a forum dedicated to your device, anything from a different one will just not work at best. At worse you'll get a brand new plastic door stopper
Remove battery, you should find the product number there or even its real brand. Look for that.

The pic indicates the phone is in 'forced' download mode if I'm not mistaken, and means you must flash something in Odin to get it working again.
Oh thanks MistahBungle
no friendly suggestions to solve this ?????

You mean like the actual, correct answer given above by MistahBungle? (nice edit)
Also, are you sure your customer had an I9100? and not some variant, like the one in your signature or some other variant http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1329

[Q] Newbie Need Help

One of my close friend's bf bought Galaxy S3 to her but there is no Android Market in it...
Its include HiMarket and when i try to open it it has an error (com.yyapk.Appstore) closed unexpectedly and i cant open it...
I wanna install new rom on the phone but there is more than one label for Galaxy S3 and i dont know which one of ours...
Somewhere in internet somebody give some codes to refine versions but anyone of those codes didnt work on this phone...
If do i wanna install new custom or stock rom on this phone must i make root this phone or not?
I go to developers website (for example whatasapp) to install application but this time market://details?com.whatsap*blablabla errors shown on the screen... :S
Can anybody help me about these cases?
Thanks a lot from now on...
must root before you flash any customs roms..
Cyanogized HTC 1X
Sounds like a fake if it has himarket instead of playstore that would also explain codes not working

Most probably a fake ..go to settings> about device and check the device name..
sent from here, there, somewhere!!
There is many infos in Settings > About Phone Menu but there is no Device Name option...
What must check it there?
Also if i need to make it root how can i do it and then can i install custom (Turkish included) rom on it or u advice which custom rom?
Thanks...

If it has HiMarket it is not a real Galaxy S III.
It is a cheap chinese clone of the Galaxy S III and no matter what you do it will NEVER be a Galaxy S III.
Close topic, because this phone doesn't even belong to the S III section because it isn't one.
But my friend cant use this phone in this state so i have to do it...
Could you please help me how can i make it root and which (turkish supported) rom u advice to me?
Or can i install another stock rom on this phone after root?

Model number look like GT-I9300 in the About Phone section...

Okay do one thing before going into flashing custom ROMs...
type *#1234# in the dialer and post the output..
Also, install the google play app from here and see if it works..if your phone is not GS3 then flashing/modding using any tool from this subforum will most probable brick your device...so tread with caution...
Make sure you have the original GT-I9300 before you do anything..

When i type *#1234# then i click dial, i get "Connection Problem or MMI Code Not Valid" error...
sorry but it's a fake... flashing anything will most likely brick it.
It's like flashing bmw dashboard firmware into a honda pilot dashboard.. it wont work and will damage the device instead.

Just let the guy flash anything to his pseudo-phone and brick it.
The phone is a fake POS anyway, plus he won`t believe us, so who gives a crap?

What phone do you have has to be the first question .

Sounds like the unlock you used wasn't a permanent one, find your carrier Rom and flash that with Odin.....then get a proper/permanent unlock code

[Q] I need help to root an s3

Hi guys my dad just bought me a phone and I've been researching and it appears to be a fake. It's model number is is still gt i9300. I saw a previous thread and someone had the exact same one and he was able to root and get it to the actual stock rom of the real gs3. There must be a way to do this but I need someone to give me a link to a specific tutorial to do this. It runs 4.1.1 and still has the specs of the s3 just not the Samsung apps and isn't made by Samsung.. Someone please reply and tell me what I can do. I'm still a noob at this stuff so try to explain everything in depth.. Thanks. Btw here is the link to where the guy said he was able to get to stock rom of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2018881

Sorry mate, but since your kernel version and compilation is not a Samsung genuine phone, wich means that will not work with Odin for sure! LOL
