[Q] Stock ROM forSGS III of Bouygues Telecom France

Need Stock ROM forSGS III of Bouygues Telecom France
Few months ago I bought an SGS III GT-i9300 with CSC of CHU running stock ICS 4.0.4 ROM (bouygues telecom). The phone was originally bought in France, and later on when I came back to my home country ie Pakistan, I got it unlocked so it could work on local carriers. The long of the short of the story is, last sunday I decided to update my SGS III to the leaked polish JB ROM I9300XXDLIB_I9300OXFDLI1_I9300XXDLIB_XEO. This resulted in loss of connectivity with my GSM network. Sadly, I made the cardinal mistake of not backing up the original ROM, in case I needed to go back. So now I am kind of stuck with a phone which at best is just like a small tablet ....
Can anyone please help me locate Stock ICS 4.0.4 ROM for the above CSC region? As so far I haven't been able to do that despite hours and hours of trying.
Also, can I install Stock ICS ROM for CSC PAK/WDC on it? If so, how can it be unlocked & made to work with it?
I hope that someone can help me in resolving this issue. Thank you.

Thanks alot JJE. Didn't knew about this checkfus tool, but it sure is one very handy util. I will let you know of the progress asap.
Regards.
Okay, I used CheckFus to locate the ROM, downloaded it, wiped/reset S3 before going ahead and installing the ROM. But unfortunately it didn't help. By the way CheckFus in Product Code field says 'Not Active'.
I was wondering whether I should get unlock code, will it help solve the issue?
In continuation of my previous post, here is an image from Galaxy S3 Sim Unlock.

That "Not Active" against the product code is probably the cause. Any help will be hugely appreciated. regards

[Q] How do I know what update to flash to from Sammobile?

I'm not new to this, been flashing roms since 2010. I'm running rooted ELK4 4.1.2. i want to flash the latest update from Samung, the official 4.1.2, yes I know I will lose root, I'm fine with that. I already did triangle away to prepare to go stock. Now, I bought the I9300 off amazon, so I know not of where it came from. How do I know what version of 4.1.2 to download from sammobile? Hope it's not a stupid question, because I looked for 2 days and couldn't find and answer.

I think you can flash whichever stock rom you want...why not?I mean you can flash custom ROMs with CSC ELLA without the stock ones being available in your country.The only issue which you have is unavailable OTA updates(with custom ROMs which is obvious )..So I think you should flash tha latest stock ROM available in YOUR country from sammobile.Anyway you can find s3's country by giving its IMEI number to your local samsung delegation.And you could ask them too in order to be sure.
there is no american stock rom for the I9300 on sammobile

You didnt mention you're from America..You can't find it cause I9300 is not available there I think.As I said before I think that you can flash wichever stock for I9300 model but I'm not sure so you can either wait for another answer or ask your local samsung delegation.

[Q] Instructions needed to upgrade to 4.0.4

My S2 is locked to the UK network T-Mobile/EE. Unfortunately it seems the network provider has given up on ever releasing Jelly Bean for the S2 via Kies so I'm looking for help to do this manually. Is it possible to flash Jelly Bean on an S2 that is locked to a network, or do I need to unlock the phone first?
Is there a guide for upgrading from ICS to JB, including where to download the firmware?
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
You need to read mate. 4.0.4 bad firmware. Do you have it now. If so look up BRICK BUG. You want to move to 4.1.2? Sammobile is the place to go. To network unlock look up gs2 unlock in playstore. Efs pls read about that. Just read alot before you have a paper weight. look up noob threads too. Lots to read :thumbup:

My S2 is locked to the 3 network and always has been....I've rooted it and I've lost count of the number of different firmwares/custom ROMs I've flashed onto it....
In terms of OS unlocking (rooting), that depends on what you want to do....
If you want to flash an unbranded firmware, you don't need root....
If you want to explore custom (aftermarket) ROMs then you DO need root.....
And just to echo andrewwright.....
If you're currently running ICS 4.0.4.
move safely away from it as soon as you can

a Question About Firmware

Hello Guys ,
I have the international galaxy s3 version ,
i'm now runing cm 10.1 with googy max kernel but i want to revert back to stock , but when i go to sammobile and choose my country from the list (Egypt) the latest version is 4.1.2
so my question is , can i choose another country like UK for Example and flash their 4.3 firmware or not ,
my dad also has a stock s3 which updated itself to 4.3 OTA , so can i download any version and flash it or not
although can you tell me what is the latest one i know its 4.3 but the one with the latest modem and csc and stuff as i cant read the firmware letters and searched for a describtion and didn't find any info (XXELLA , XXEMA2 , .. etc )
another question , is there any mod that switches between 2g/3g networks , like the one in cyangoenmod that switches between network types with one click , i searched but all i can come up with is the play store shourtcuts to network setting
last simple question , what is the best kernel for 4.3 ??
Sorry for long post and questions

For your rom question: yes, you can flash any unbranded rom (GNA7 build is considered the latest one), but if you're planning to root your device, then I suggest flashing a custom rom (there are a lot of GNA7 builds available in 'android dev' thread)- they also come with a variety of modems to choose from (I personally prefer the MK6 modem)
About kernel- there is no 'best' one, it depends on personal requirements...

If you're going back to a stock ROM, then the 2G/3G settings can be changed in the Mobile Data options, I can't remember the exact name of the options as it's been a while since I even looked at it, but you'll know when you see it, hope this helped.
