Hi, I've searched the forums here for a while but have honestly not found the answer so I hope someone can help. I have an S III I9305 which I updated OTA to the official 4.3 last week. the baseband version is I9305XXUEMK1 and the kernel version is dated Thursday 12th December. From searching I've only found the baseband I9305XXUEMKC which I believe was dated around end of November 13.
I simply wanted to know if there is any way to go back to the official 4.1.2 (i.e. as it was before the update to 4.3). I have not rooted the phone or done anything else with my phone. I have read all the stuff about Knox which I believe could prevent the phone to be downgraded without voiding the warranty, but this is not really a big issue for me as I've had the phone for over a year now. I was not ever planning on rooting the phone or adding any custom roms either. Just looking for a way to restore the phone as it was really!!
Hope anyone can help, and advance apologies for what is probably a very nooob question.
thanks
