Instructions for installing the official single-file firmware on Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-I930x).

Drivers and programs

Attention!

To install the official stock firmware on the Galaxy S3 and return the phone status ("Settings"\u003e "About device"\u003e "Properties"\u003e "Device status") to "Official" after switching from custom firmware and thereby return the ability to receive updates over the air, it is enough follow the instructions provided.

Installation instructions

Unpack the downloaded archive into the folder with Odin PC for convenience. The file in the ".tar" or ".tar.md5" format must be kept and "SS_DL.dll" can be deleted.

Reset device data.
To do this, go to the settings on the tab “ Accounts"In the section" Archiving and reset", Select the item" Reset device"And press the button" Delete everything". The phone will restart.

Run Odin PC as administrator.

Put the device into download mode ( Download Mode).
To do this, simultaneously hold down the Volume Down key, the Home button and the Power button. Then wait until the phone restarts and accept the warning by pressing the Volume Up key.

In this state, connect the smartphone to the computer. Odin should light up the inscription “ COM».

Press the button " AP»And select the TAR-archive of the firmware.

Items " Auto reboot"And" F.Reset Time" must be activated, and " Re-Partition", If active - must be disabled.

Press the button " Start". The process of installing the firmware will begin.

At the end of the operation, if everything went well, the message “All threads completed. (succeed 1 / failed 0) ". The phone must be rebooted manually by holding down the power button until the screen turns off. The device may take up to 5 minutes to boot up for the first time.
ATTENTION!
If the device does not boot for a long time or the data has not been reset, it must be performed from recovery.
To do this, simultaneously hold down the Volume Up key, the Home button and the Power button. After downloading, select the item " Wipe data / Factory reset", and then - " Reboot system now". If after these steps the device also freezes at startup, you must reflash it again.

However, the new firmware version has not arrived for all users, since different operator versions of firmware may differ in delivery time, while other users' smartphones may not see the new firmware by themselves. In this regard, I wrote a small guide to manually update Galaxy S III to Android 4.3.

So, first we need it itself, you can download one on our website. For devices purchased legally, it is best to install a version for the home market in Russia, but there is no such version yet, so I decided to install the British version. It is not much different and also contains Russian, like any other European version. In the future, it will be possible to reinstall the firmware using the method described below and this will not lead to the loss of the official warranty for the smartphone. I also recommend that you read the article to the end in order to avoid further discomfort, which will inevitably overtake you after the update.

The procedure for installing the firmware is as follows:

1. run the program on a PC and make sure that the smartphone has enough charge;
2. enter the smartphone into the Download Mode (at the same time pressing the "off" + "volume down" + "home button" keys), then press "Volume up";
3. connect a USB cable to the device;
4. in the Odin application on your computer, select files from the archive with the firmware:
   • for the PIT graph - a file with the * .pit extension;
   • for PDA - a file with the word CODE in its name, if there is none, then you should know that this is the heaviest file in the archive;
   • for CSC - a file whose name contains the word CSC;
   • for Phone - a file containing MODEM in its name;
   • Note. If the files for the CSC, Phone and PIT graphs are absent in the archive with the firmware, then we sew exclusively by the method of one file, i.e. indicate the location of the firmware in the PDA column, and leave the remaining lines blank.
5. make sure Odin is checked for Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time ". If the location of the * .pit file was specified, then the "Re-Partition" checkbox will be set automatically;
6. press the "Start" button and watch the firmware process progress. The phone may reboot several times during installation and in no case should you disconnect the cable from it until the message "All threads completed" appears in the Odin log or the green information window with the inscription "PASS!"

On average, flashing a Galaxy S3 takes about 6 minutes, but it can take longer. In any case, it is worth waiting for an inscription about the completion of the installation of the firmware, because the early interruption of the process can turn the phone into a "brick". As soon as Odin informs you that the firmware has been installed successfully (message “PASS!” In the Odin application), you can start installing the operating system itself.

There are no difficulties in installing Android 4.3, the system is intuitive and prompts the user to place the necessary checkboxes himself, and even if you miss any moments, you can always make changes in the smartphone settings. The phone is now fully flashed and ready to go.

Android 4.3 is quite different from the previous version (Android 4.1.2), but we still have the same Jelly Bean, so it won't take long to get used to the innovations. First of all, the updated interface that the Galaxy S3 inherited from its own is striking. In addition, the standard Samsung keyboard and S Voice service have been updated, new screen and camera modes have appeared, and they have been accompanied by a redesigned notification center and settings section. Another feature of Android 4.3 is support for TRIM (now the device should become faster), ANT +, clock and full-fledged voice control.

However, Android 4.3 is not for everyone at the moment, since, being official, the firmware is still damp and sometimes buggy. In particular, I noticed that unlocking now takes more time, and sometimes during this process the phone may freeze altogether, after which it will have to be rebooted. After asking other users about this problem, I found out that many people experience such delays. At the same time, other users complain about something else. For example, the hang of the end of the call button.

In general, Android 4.3 can be delivered for review, but at your own peril and risk. However, I would still recommend waiting for the official version of Android 4.3 Galaxy S3 for Russia or the firmware with fixed bugs. Fortunately, Samsung is already working on a solution to the identified issues.

Samsung Galaxy S3 is the new Android flagship.

So, in the end, what everyone expected happened! Months later, a huge amount of rumors and unconfirmed data, Samsung almost a couple of minutes ago showed its own new device from the Galaxy line - Galaxy S3

Galaxy S3 update to Android 5.1.1

In this video, I made a mini review on renewal system, if you wish, a more detailed analysis of this update.

Outside, the novelty looks very, very presentable: smooth lines, rather narrow body and several colors. For some reason, this device reminds me of Galaxy Note, but with one huge difference, Galaxy S3 looks neater.

The novelty can be tested with a delightful 4.8-inch SuperAMOLED HD screen with a resolution of 1280x720 pixels, an 8 megapixel camera and a rather impressive 2100 mAh battery.

As they say in the Samsung Galaxy S III, this is a phone that sees, hears and answers. The new product implements several special functions that are focused on the delicate interaction of the device with its owner.

- S-Voice function, (some analogue of Apple Siri) recognizes the owner's voice and makes his commands.

- With the help of Smart stay, the device itself will be aware when the user is reading a book or surfing the network, and will maintain the brightness at the same level so as not to burden the eyes.

- The S Beam function allows you to exchange multimedia content with other users of the Samsung Galaxy S3 simply by touching two devices, the phone itself will start transferring files, and at the end it will simply notify the owner.

- The Buddy photo share function will itself find and distribute the photos taken by the camera of the device to all those who are captured on them.

SGS3 also knows how to connect to "smart" TV sets wirelessly using the AllShare Cast application. However, it is not clear yet it will work with all TVs. Also, everything that happens on the phone display can be displayed on several computers connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

As I mentioned above, the resolution of the main camera is 8 megapixels, and it will be able to amuse all fans of mobile photography with indescribable speed and the ability to take a series of pictures of 20 frames. After that, the user himself can choose any frames he likes from this series, and simply delete others.

As for the price - 29,990 rubles in Russia, the start of sales is scheduled for June. In Europe, the device will cost about 550-600 Euro depending on the country (2nd half of May).

Finally, SGS 3 will be available in 3 different versions: with 16, 32 and 64GB memory. Well, for those who will miss the integrated memory, the device has a slot for memory cards in microSD format.

Dropbox syncs files from a local folder, in other words, out of 128 gigs, you can sync 50 with other devices.

Hmm, I took sgc1 in July of that year, everything suits me, I bought a very narrow film on eeeee, I found a back cover made of soft touch plastic for aliexpress for 3.99, now the smart is comfortable to hold in your hand, does not slip, put AOKP ICS, a good version of the 4th android, plus still in sgc1 there is still a USB HOST, the screen diagonal of 4 inches is just excellent, he held various flagships with a larger diagonal, it is not so pleasant to work on them with one hand, I do not see any reason to change the smart at the moment, because the performance of a single-core processor is enough for daily tasks, well, all new games are coming.

Tell me please, I wish in a year to take the Samsung galaxt s3 for myself, it costs me. To take it, I watched reviews, videos, drawings, everything suits me, but I'm still hesitant and looking for other brands to buy, please tell me.

in a year even more cool and new models will be! I can wait until August and take the Iphone, although I like the Samsung more S2 I have been using it for a year already, in general, I'm not complaining.

Well, in general, I agree with Eugene - progress does not stand still and in a year something will be smarter / more attractive / faster, etc., BUT! If you want to take specifically at the moment, this very second, then in my opinion (and you write here to get acquainted with the views) - SGS3 is the best that Samsung has ever released from its own phones, namely the best that is at the moment moment on the market ... Again, I can back up my words by taking HTC One X (the only rival to SGS3 at that time) for a week, and later Samsung ... without even looking at the flaw in the material, the feeling of the material of the SGS3 case, slowed down on it ... , thoughtfulness, support for various tasks / chips / protocols / formats is simply amazing ... and all this is out of the box ... no need to woo the Internet in search of any programs / codecs / managers / viewers / drivers (I myself installed only a navigation program to Only through GPS I worked, an office program and a simple photo editor - so that the effects in the photos can be done right away) the main thing is to make updates (I'm only for the official ones, which the phone itself offers). Well, it's better to take cheaper - 30,000 re for a phone - it's not just a lot, it's VERY, VERY MUCH ... (I took it for 19,000) ... I use it myself for a month and 3 weeks - and I'm very satisfied ...

A pipe from a bitten apple in comparison with the SGS3-heaven and earth, although, as the Germans said, to each his own. VERY playful, successful in appealing, stuffed to the eyeballs, installs applications at once, but ... Absolutely slippery, traffic eats like a bull terrier, it is unclear where and why it sends data about the owner from all applications, and there are still a lot of problems. And so, everything is at a high level.

From your message it is generally not clear what is stuffed, what slides, where is the bull terrier ... sorry.

S3 will not only destroy the iPhone, but also abuse the corpse)))

Destroying an iPhone will not give the huge size of the phone.

I really hoped to switch from an iPhone to a new Helexi, but after the presentation I realized that I didn't need such a "bast shoe" in my pocket 🙂

will you do a review later?

4.8 ″ screen - I'm disappointed. I only got rid of the nexus because of 4.65. ugly awkward. 🙁

Alexander N., I would be glad if I could not) I live in the region, I have not been in the city recently) I am going to take it in the web store) By the way, are there any problems with carrying in the jeans / trousers pocket? It's just that for the first time I will take a phone with such a screen diagonal, previously it was negligible Samsung Star)

Turn it into the pocket to fit)) Although the size is certainly much larger than the Samsung Star, for example, for example, the Htc ONE X in my pocket quietly fits, although naturally, its presence feels, as they say, the shovel's body is not small ...

BLIIINN Screen: 4.8 ", 1280x720, Super Amoled, PENTILE !! couldn’t the Koreans have made a screen without a pentail…. he spoils the whole picture about the flagship now there are doubts whether to change your own galaxy from 2 ... although the resolution is higher, with pentail everything wakes up worse

Samsung has long been time to change designers!

And the phone seems to be not that narrow. This is a silver outline - an optical illusion.
