How to restore stock firmware on Samsung Galaxy S3? (Video)
 
just an update :grrrr:

ok ive followed the guide posted by seanicca

installed triangle away ran it flash the counter back to zero
wiped all data cache and returned it to factory status,cleared all cache again
put the s3 into d/load mode,started odin up and nothing ???
but if i boot the phone into normal mode,the pc will pick it up also odin picks it up
and shows the com port number,but if i put it back into d/load mode by using vol down+home+power button nothing,so i closed odin down and opened up kies waited
while the phone connected to kies,then it said firmware update needed,clicked on update then after a few mins the phone will boot into odin mode(d/load mode)and after a few mins nothing happens,but a box will come up sayin kies is not connected
unplug the battery and do it all again,i did all this and its same as before,so i tried updating it using phone ota service,it will d/load the f/w then half way thru it will come up with a error so it will abort it

why cant i get this s3 updated to the lastest f/w

is there another way like puttin the f/w file onto the internal card and doing it that way

will up a pix of the error after

Mobile odin works from your phone but need root AFAIK. Did you shut kies down in device manager before trying odin?
