[Q] asian firmwares vs europe firmware - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an asian SGS 9000 and I was wondering if I can flash it with the latest european firmware?
Thank you.

Go ahead, minor difference in bundled applications, system languages and APN settings, been using euro firmwares in asian sets for quite a while...

U guys use xxjm8?
Is it good? No bugs?
If use voodoo, is it fast enough ( i got 180 apps installed)?

its safe UNLESS you have a Korean SGS (Anycall phone) then DONT DO IT! For some reason they brick. I havn't looked into it as I had no need but faqs mention not to do it.

I have an SGS 9000 from singapore singtel. Not the korean "anycall" version. : ) Lucky : )

Why do you want European firmware? You live in Asia and be happy. You don't need Europe.

[Q] Firmware Latin America - GT-I9000HKTTTT

I´m using the GT-I9000HKDXEU firmware.
Can anyone tell me if the Latin America GT-I9000HKTTTT firmware has Brazilian language, please ?
Thanks a lot.
No one ?
Please, help me.
Mexico here - It seems our phones were released so recently, nobody has had a chance to take a real good look at them. I am also looking for my firmware and info on upgrading to Froyo but have not found anything yet, and the lack of answers tells me nobody really knows yet.
My PC is I9000HKTCE
Phone is I9000T. Yours I assume is I9000B?
Thanks a lot for the answer ferparedes.
I bought my SGS at Amazon and it came unlocked with a German firmware.
I´m using Froyo, but as my phone doesn´t have hardware for digital tv, I´d like to get a unbranded firmware that has Brazilian language.
Which languages are available in your phone ?

If you want OTA or updates over Kies you need to install the proper Rom for your country.
You can find here

iirc, german models were one of the fastest to get updates.
more importantly, tell us which version your device is currently running. if its already on the latest version then its pointless to waste time swapping regions and wiping your device.
its the latest for now
android 2.3.6
baseband xxlb2

Hello everyone. I'm new to here. I have a problem in my galaxy S advance (I9070) First days I purchased it, it asked for System Update settings in Notification area. so I was selected the country as UK by mistake.

ok dear, thanks. and I'd like to know that what is the best JB firmware suitable for i9070. I read many reviews on the internet and found that the device will be slow down and will lag after install JB, Is that true ?

You can use other region firmwares with no problem. Currently maybe the indian ddulp8 is the best without root imo. Yes, it is true but not on all device and I don't know why.
Hope this helps.

[Q] UNBRANDED Stock ROM for international i9305?

Hi Guys!
When I bought my phone it came with an unbranded (no T-mobile bootanim just the funky Samsung one) firmware.
Played with some roms when I decided to make it full stock again but I am unable to find unbranded firmware, only T-Mobile versions for it...
Can you help me maybe with a link or something?
Thanks in advance!

if they're for different countries doesn't mean they're branded. all firmware is for some country

Hi, the DBT version (for Germany) is 100% unbranded and works fine. Other is NEE (Finland). Those two are tested myself and no branding or bloatware present. No issues with OTA or Kies (well, if you're in Europe).

Yes, I have used this ROM on all my S3's and no issues at all. (Voda,Virgin,Orange).
Use Odin and do hard reset before and after flashing!
If you want a ROM which is pretty much close to stock, you could have a look at "The Galaxy Project": http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2125984
It's based on the official Samsung ROMs (not AOSP/CM etc), it looks like the stock ROM, and the only difference is some minor tweaking, completely unbranded, and bloat removal. It's completely international (Europe, Oceania etc) and uses the most current Firmware (4.1.2 XXBMR8).
By the way, here's another location for untouched Firmwares:

No login needed which is helpful.
