[Q] italian firmware sbf

does anyone have any news about the italian firmware for milestone 2.
is there a way to get a dump of the latest version of the italian fw.
the phone was announced last week and should be in stores very soon.

Since the only .sbf available were obtained on a motorola server, which is now closed, it's very unlikely that an italian firmware goes out.
At best, somebody will be kind enough to make a nandroid backup and share it.
Since uk and italy use the same keyboard layout, and same baseband frequencies, why don't you use the uk .sbf? (which surely has italian support)

it's because there are several bugs in the uk release and I know for sure that most of them were corrected with the italian version.
for example in the recent calls contact pictures are messed up (you see the wrong picture with the calls list); that was solved in the italian retail firmware.
thank you anyway for your kind answer.

[ROM]Official Israeli SGS2 roms (2.3.3/5/6, 4.0.3/4) (Hebrew and Arabic official ICS)

Since Suny (Samsung's official distributor in Israel) censored the links to their official roms on the Israeli owned forums I decided to open this thread so we Israeli users can have a source for downloading official roms.
All official operator roms have full Hebrew/Arabic menus and keyboards with full RTL support.
Please leave this discussion clean and in English.
The roms will be listed from oldest to latest.

NO!!!
We have discussion threads with links to firmware for other countries so why not Israel?

Just didn't want to double post
Can I use the links from your thread? All the Israeli community will be greatful

Yes sure, I don't mind at all.

The Israeli Android Community (IAC... ) is already grateful!
Thank you firefds for this thread and you Intratech for the sources.
You guys are doing a great job. Thank you.

The firmware archives have no password, just the stock kernel archive does.

Thank you firefds and Intratech.
Which modem included in the Orange & Pelephone roms ?
Thanks !

Firefds,
By the way, the link to the Orange Rom in the other thread is to the older rom, while yours is to the newer rom (the one with KG3 in one of its parts, rather than KG2).
It might be a good idea to ask for an update in the other thread (if the rom is indeed different).

I used the Orange one before changing the ROM. It's good.
And I believe the other 2 are good as well. No reason for them not to be.

Anyway, they should work on all SGS2 phones.

links are dead
please upload again

Yep, it looks like Israeli carriers are being nazi about the firmware being available. Why?
I'll work on re uploading the files but please don't go posting them on Israeli board or they will take them down again. The carriers are reporting them as breaching copyright.

One question guys. I am not from Israle, but I am learning Hebrew.
Is there a way to get the Hebrew language on a UK O2 phone?
I would like to add hebrew to swype and the phone itself.

[Q] U8180 Rom for New Zealand?

Okay, so I bought the Huawei X1 phone, which is a great little phone.
But, it wasn't long before I started to tinker with it, and in the process I lost the stock Telecom rom and ended up having to flash with an Aussie version.
The problem I'm having though, is that nearly all roms I've found so far will not register properly on the network, and as far as I found out, it's because these all came from 900mhz providers and not the 850mhz like XT.
So heres what I would like somone to do f they are keen enough...
Use SuperOneClick to root their phone.
Install RootToolBox.
Flash with recovery-RA-u8160-v2.3 (you may need a file manager like ES file manager)
Power off then on holding both power button and volume up until recovery menu comes up.
Perform a nand backup of boot, system, and data and then...
Please please please upload the files somewhere for me!
Thanks.
Or if anyone has the U8180 Telecom New Zealand rom, can you please upload?
I've tried getting it from wiki.modaco.com Huawei_Firmware_U8180
But none of the links work, or I can't figure out how to get them working.

You've got the wrong forum mate...This forum section is for U8800 - X5 and what you've got is Huawei Ideos X1 - U8180.

Yeah I know, but for some reason I can't find the right forum?
Able to point me in right direction?

You owe me a beer for this
http://androidz.jimdo.com/roms-x1-u8180/roms-u8180-x1-gaga/#.Tlrayl34K08

Not really mate, those roms are the reason my phone is now stuck on the 900mhz version baseband and not the 850mhz version like I need for telecom.
I'm desperate for the NZ telecom version!

Ups, sorry mate, wasn't aware that NZ is 850mhz.

Can you not change the baseband in *#*#4636#*#* menu?

You are confused, the baseband has nothing to do with the 3G frequency, you cannot change a frequency because it is in the hardware not software.
My question is: did it worked before the update? (im assuming that you are talking about 3G frequency bands)
Sent from my U8800Pro using XDA App

Oh I guess I am confused?
Yes it did work before the update.
And no I don't see an option to change anything in the menu.
How would I go about repairing this?

Maybe contact Huawei NZ? via http://huaweimobile.co.nz

I tried that yesterday.
Got some angry little asian man who wanted to know how I flashed the phone and was no help at all
Noticed before that the phone model isn't actually U8180, but rather U8180-7...
I'm guessing there may be a hardware change for NZ?
Can anybody point me to more info on basebands and whatnot?
I don't really understand it all, I was under the impression that baseband=operating frequencies?

Why don't you take it back to Telecom shop and see if they can flash it back? I doubt you'll have much luck on this forum as it's for a totally different phone that runs on only 2D and Vodafone in NZ

you'd be fine if the Huawei links weren't broken, all the links I've tried for multiple models are broken. Keep an eye on them they might come right soon.

Flashed it with U8150 firmware for a laugh, going back to shop today :S

hey there -
I've got the U8180-7 NZ Telecom version if you want - uploading it now to mediafire and will post it in a bit.
Will you return the favor ? I need to purchase a couple of these phones in NZ and have them shipped out to me. But haven't found a way to do that yet.. nobody seems to want to ship overseas or even have DHL pick on my expense from their shop..

About The Difference Between The Carries Roms
Different from other Samsung devices, all the Israeli carrier roms for the SGS3 are the same!
It doesn't matter which one you download, you get the same settings, apps, MODEM, kernel, recovery - everything is the SAME!
After you download the rom and flash it you can set the CSC of your phone to the carrier you are using (if you want to do that).
For more details how to do that continue reading the guide.
How To Flash Official Roms
Download your selected rom
Double click the .exe file to extract the .tar file
Flash the rom using Odin. If you don't know how - search for it!
You do not need root the flash these roms!!
How To Change The CSC To Your Carrier Settings (OPTIONAL)
If you want to revert back to your carrier settings (bootanimation, garbage apps, etc.), you will need to manually change your CSC.
NOTICE: This action will wipe ALL your data! Including pictures, music, backups, apps, setting.
Launch your stock dialer
Type in the code
Code:
*#06#
This is your IMEI number. Write it down.
Go back to your stock dialer and type in the code -
Code:
*#272*XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX#
Where XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX is your IMEI number.
You will be prompt with a selection of CSC codes. These are your carrier code. Select the one you want:
ILO - Sanny (Clean rom, no junk)
PTR - Orange (Partner)
CEL - Cellcom
PCL - Pelephone
MIR - Hot Mobile (Mirs)
The device will reboot and WIPE ALL YOUR DATA!! (See notice above)
When your device boots you will see all your carrier junk.

Hope its gonna help you - if you have Israeli operator rom and wish to change it to other operator or for your case to SUNNY clean rom then make these steps and you will get your phone without the operator's garbage
1 - Open the dialing screen and type this to get the IMEI code:
*#06#
2 - Write down the IMEI code so you can copy it for later use.
3 - Back to the dialing screen and type the IMEI from step 2 in the following format:
*#272*XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX#
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX = replace this with your IMEI
4 - You'll get the following selection screen:
choose one of the operators :
ILO - SUNNY ORIGINAL CLEAN ISRAELI ROM
PTR - ORANGE
CEL - CELLCOM
PCL - PELEPHONE
MIR - HOT MOBILE
After you choose your operator the phone will restart - make sure your battery is full !
NOTE: - once you selecting the operator code all of your DATA will ERASED and LOST!!!!
yeah yeah i know - bad English ;p

In galaxy 3 there is only one ROM for Israeli market. any Israeli operator's ROM you download from sammobile is the same file. The way you choose the right operator for you is the way i mentioned before, Even if you on Israeli ROM you can do those steps and get clean sunny ROM without flashing and etc... (sunny orange cellcom or whatever you choose)

I think the original rom (even in israel) is better then any other ****ty rom out there.. I'm new in android and replaced IOS after 4 years to android. tried so many roms for android and some modification and they all are ****ty and full of bugs (unlike the IOS) . what i am asking for is a good phone to meet my needs which is mosty entertainment needs. games news movies and so on. the original rom is the most stable rom yet !! so dont bother with other roms unless you are bored to death.
Have a great day
and dont get me wrong - i LOVE my SGS3
BTW orange just updated to the last ICS update for the galaxy s3 in last week - they also sent to their customers sms to make an OTA update.

thanks, your english is perfect...
the issue now is that my phone is a Dutch phone - and so is the rom - i bought it in Holland...
now, can i just burn the rom onto my phone and set it to Sunny and "finito" ?
will it work ?
will it update when there are updates ?
thanks once again
---------- Post added at 10:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 AM ----------
tried to search there for a rom - found nothing...
any direct link you can send ?

"ZeevG" yes you can, just flash using odin and thats it.
to check and be sure just check that your csc is "ilo" after the flash.

my sim card is from cellcom, which one has the best rom cellcom, pelephone or orange, and does it matter if my operator is cellcom and i flash orange rom

"hykhleif" all the operators in israel uses the same baseband, just install the "clean" sunny version (ilo).
it dont metters which rom you use for operator.

I bought mine in germany. And the reason that i flashed israeli rom is hebrew keyboard and calendar localization. And I don't feel any difference between roms. Except software. When I flashed the last UK rom from sammobile, then i got Wifi disconnections. So you never know which rom for you is better.

First post updated with link to the new release and detailed information and instructions!

Thanks firefds for posting the new ROM. I am new to Android a day have not yet rooted. I have few questions:
1. After flashing with Odin and not changing carrier, will my system settings and apps be as they were?
2. Any idea why sammobile would not showing for this firmware or Orange not sending good me SMS to do ODA update? I think I am asking how this firmware cycle works between Samsung, Sunny, and the mobile carriers?
3. A firmware came out about 3 weeks ago in UK that fixes a crackling sound on the phone when listening to audio via the earphone jacket and screen is off. Does anyone know if this new ROM fixes this problem?
