Make sure you have the correct ROM for your phone. If your phone is carrier-unlocked and not branded, you can use any carrier-free (unbranded) ROM from the link above. How do you check if your phone is engraved or not? If the logo or any carrier appears when you start your phone then its branded, if only Samsung logo appears when you reboot your phone then it’s clean.
