I git mine from t mobile & there's very little from them. The vast majority is the usual Samsung bloatware you even get on unlocked phones. I think as t mobile & orange are sort of the same, you shouldn't expect much bloatware from them specifically

It's practically unbranded as this software is for EE network so everything is non specific towards t-mobile and orange.

Ahh nice, cheers. Will I need to backup my EFS partition after flashing this pre-rooted firmware?

Backup before or after. My roms are stock so you are safe either way.

Backing up efs folder is always a good idea and with our device you can even backup without root.

So which root method is the safest? I have something called GT-I9305N

This is all stock, did one OTA upgrade when I got the phone yesterday.
Sweden actually has two different 4G/LTE variants depending on operator, one for Telenor/Tele2(2600/900 MHz) and one for Telia (2600/800 MHz), where only LTE frequencies differ. Mine is from Comviq.se(Tele2 with prepaid variant due to I didn't want to change my subscription terms to some thing new&bad)

Any suggetions? THanks!

Hi everyone, I received my new SGS3 I9305 from vodafone (germany) and I'm totally new in android.
I would like to get rid of the vodafone branding so would you recommend me to install this pre-rooted ROM? As I am really new, I would like to ask you something : can I install this ROM on my "Out of the Box" I9305?

Specifications of my phone :
AP:I9305XXALI5
CP:I9305BUALI6
CSC:I9305VD2ALI4

Thank you all.

You can but the only Rom available here at the moment is the UK EE Rom so it will only have Orange UK and T-Mobile UK APN settings. But this Rom is otherwise unbranded. No Network startup logos.
