Is that even possible? I have a T999 and planning to ship to my father but T999 doesn't support Turkish and stable CM9 or CM10 isn't out yet, what happens if I flash i9300 stock rom to T999?

Depends on your title of stable... does everything work? yes. but something are broken here and there after every nightly or so. people run certain nightlies daily, I was one of them but I need WiFi calling sometimes.

Your phone becomes dead. Flashing an I9300 ROM on a T999 results in hard brick.


Wrong...you can flash a i9300 rom to any US variant it wont soft brick your device, what WILL soft-brick your device is flashing a i9300 kernel/sbl/bootloaders/radios etc anything lower level than /system, but there no point in flashing i9300 /system's on our device cause the SOC is diffrent along with all the sensors, so the device wont boot running a i9300 system, unless you port it manually.

Dude just tell the op he can't! If he goes and dl a i9300 rom and flashes it he is hard bricked simple as that.
