Use CHECKFUS and download stock firmware and install via ODIN is the easy method for ant current firmware .

I9300XXALEF i tried searching this in the checkfus and it cant be found. Im trying to find a firmware that had the same info as my last one. Does baseband really matter too? And does it come bundled on the firmware?

Baseband is modem and part of the firmware .

You can always flash a different modem .


I9300XXALEF probably to old now to be on the servers .

hello ,

1. for wipe dalvik you can use olso titanium backup
2. for ful wipe use clkwr and
-go to recovery
-wipe data factory reset ,press yes,done..after this go
-recovery ,wipe case ,press yes ,done.
-recovery ,advanset ,wipe dalvic case ,press tes ,done

This is full wipe and after this you can flash a new rom

If you want to make wipe for beter battery life you can do wipe dalvic case and fix battery status from recovery/advansent/fix battery status

I have made all this for many times ,hop to help you.....

Hello , there is a very useful app that i use all the time ,this is (sd made apk) and with this you can clean corpsfinder files and unesesery thinks from system and sd card,olso you can clean the apps that you have instal on your system (not unistal only clean)
After this no need to make full wipe ....only if you have problemes ,crash or you want to flash new rom ....

Is that in cwm manager?

Is that in cwm manager?

CWM Manager is an app to be used for recovery management..It is not fully compatible with CWM 6.0.1.2..Use CWM to reboot into recovery..From there choose the options as JJ has said..
