Flash Stock ROM to Samsung Galaxy S3 (ATT) - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

What is the process, tools, software, etc. to revert from a custom ROM back to the stock ROM on the Galaxy S3? I have spent hours trying to find information about it, but everything I have found either mismatches with other information or is super complicated and hard to follow.
I'm sure this is posted somewhere on this site but I never found it in my searches.
I really just need to know where I can find the stock ROM for my phone and what ever else I need to flash it back on to my phone. Thanks!

I just recently flashed back to At&t's stock from a very tweaked creation of a rom for my S3. So I decided I wanted to start fresh. I found all the information on how to do this here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1725839
All the information you need to know is there. Hope you are successful in your endeavor.
I would read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=81 first though.

Hi, I need help. How/where will I find the stock rom for Galaxy S3 bought from MTN in South Africa?
Also, is there any way of figuring it out from the IMEI or Serial numbers?
Thanks.

Isn't there a T-Mobile GS3 section on here?
Aren't we on the tmobile s3 forum?
Isn't this the right section of the forum? I need this, as well, and have just searched the site, specifically, and spent another 3 hours on google. No stock ROM.
Bump.

[Q] Am I N7105 or N7100?

Hi
I have search the forum for this and google. I am a bit stumped
I have attached 2 images, one a screenshot of my Note 2 device info and the other of the Samsung Galaxy note 2 toolkit 2.3.1 (donation activated).
Basically Im confused on what my phone is. According to the device info its a GT-N7100 Build N7100XXALIJ but the baseband is N7100XXALIH
When I look on the toolkit to chose what my phone model and build are it says that the N7100XXALIJ build is model GT-N7100.
I am assuming that as I am on o2 UK that I am a GSM model and not a LTE but what option should I select.
Im not currently interested in stock roms, I do plan later to but I am worried about my flash counter, I am primarily looking just for root.
I thank you for reading this.
all of the version, baseband, etc... shows begin with "7100"
why would u ever doubt yr phone is 7105?
because in the device info it says model n7100
also I didnt think o2 woukd be lte ?

First i`am not a moderator, second if you have 3 confirmations that you have a N7100 it is stupid to ask any further. You think it is a N7105 in disguise?

stikk doesnt help me with finding out which option to select when if I sekect the buukd for my phone its for a n7105 and alk the n7100 are different builds. im new to andriod I just wanted clarificatiion on what may seem a stupid question. were not all born with answers as you
I don't understand where the confusion is coming from. All signs point to you having an n7100. No where in your screenshots is there any indication that it could be an n7105.
That is why people are getting annoyed.
So to answer your question in case you are still unsure, and you have an n7100. Don't flash anything for the n7105

Thank you very much. I did search the toolkit before for XXALIJ but it didn't come back with any results.
I really appreciate that you found that for me. I will be donating for your work in helping me!
I tried donating to you but get the following error on paypal:
Currently PayPal accounts in India are only able to send payments. This recipient is not eligible to receive funds.
If you send me alternative payment method I will send u a donation for the help you have given.
Yes this is issue since last 1 month, don't worry and your words of thanx is enough. Don't bother and enjoy exploring your new rooted device.

Okay. I see what the OP was trying to get at. His N7100 had the LIJ build installed and was trying to use his phone with the Note II toolkit. And when the toolkit asked him what phone and build he was using, the option for an N7100 with LIJ wasn't there. However, the option for an N7105 with LIJ was there.... hense, confusion.
So, for future reference OP, if another device has a build of Android with the same number as yours, that doesn't mean it's the same build as yours or that you actually have that device instead of what you originally thought you had. You do in fact have an N7100 with LIJ. Welcome to the Android community and sorry for the "FAIL". Enjoy your Note II!

Telus Root? Custom ROM?

So Im looking into this rooting and custom firmware/ROM deal, and came across a couple questions id like answered if possible.
I'm on Telus, in Canada, and my baseband on my GS3 is I747MVLDLK4. Every thread i see about custom roms and rooting refers to a different baseband, and my question is, what baseband ROMs will work with mine? Or is it even safe to flash this phone with a custom ROM at all?
Ive seen different opinions in other threads and everything seems to conflict, so i need a definite answer as I'd love to get into this whole community and start doing awesome things with my S3, but i don't want to go through a period of not being able to use my phone because i flashed the wrong firmware.
THanks

Baseband is the modem package with the phone. There is actually a newer version released. I'm on telus and have flashed almost everything on these boards. If you stay in these threads and it says AT&T you can flash it on our phones

Thanks a ton, I've been reading up on it lots lol hopefully i can get it done tonight! Newer version of the baseband u say? How would i get ahold of that? When i try to update it tells me everything is already up to date
Don't confuse baseband with a operating system update. There isn't a need to update the baseband. It's just if you are having reception issues.

All good and helpful points but I will clarify further just so nothing gets misunderstood.
Baseband = modem. OP needs to flash only Telus modems and not ATT ones. Specifically only use the I747M modems. If you flash the wrong modem you may screw up your device. Tread carefully here.
When KorGuy talks about flashing anything on these boards he is referring to ROMs only. ROMs almost never include a modem in the package so there is no need to worry.
Check out the threads by Tony Stark for good answers.
^ I hope all that makes sense.

[Q] Updating Firmware with a different version possible

Sorry if this question has already been answered but I have been looking in the forums and couldn't find exactly what i want.
From what I have found, there is an international version and a carrier version of the note 2.
I got my phone from EE (uk mobile carrier) and have removed the simlock by getting the code from them and now using the phone on Three mobile (another uk mobile carrier). But the problem is that its settings are still there like their website bookmark cannot be deleted and I have their recommended apps in the google play store.
I am guessing that the firmware version is also tied to when ever EE releases it. So i was thinking if its possible to make my mobile switch to the international firmware release. Which seems to be the first to get the latest of Samsung updates.
Is such a thing possible, if so is it worth it? and can any one tell me how to do it.
thank you in advance.

Where do I find the factory ROM? Really need help with this one

Hi all. I've royally screwed up my wife's AT&T, American Samsung Galaxy S3. I need the factory ROM. I really need help with this one guys. I won't go into all the details of what I messed up, but suffice to say I know I can fix it if I can just find the factory ROM for this phone. I'll then use Odin to reflash, and all will be well. So can anyone help me out with a link to the factory, stock ROM for an ATT Galaxy S3?

Here u go try the at&t forum section. Just double check your phones model is correct before flashing any roms official or not. As some ppl have tried to flash wrong model version roms and bricked there phones.

I've never heard that. I always thought that if you have an American ATT Galaxy S3, then that's the only model you need to worry about. Are there sub-models or something? How do I determine what ROM goes with my model?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756332
Here this sticky from this thread will explain it.
Edit:- if you go into phones "settings" and "about device" under model number should verify which model your using.
