Need some advice about flashing Samsung Note 10.1 back to stock

Hi just wondering if I can get a bit of advice regarding flashing my Samsung note 10.1 back to the original firmware.
Currently I have the tablet rooted with the ClockworkMod but I want to go back to stock as I am selling my 16GB wifi note 10.1 and upgrading to a note 10.1 32GB 3G model.
I have been reading up on how to flash it back to stock and I think I have most of it figured out,I found a video on the rootgalaxynote website called how to install stock recovery on your rooted galaxy note 10.1,but what my main question was is which is the right stock image to use.
In my about device in the note 10.1 settings it says build number is N8010XWALG4 and my note 10.1 is the Australian version so I did a search on sammobile and it came up with this firmware (Australia 2012 August N8010XWALG4 N8010XSAALG3) is that the right firmware for me,it's just that when I did the search and selected the country it only had Australia XSA for the Australian options,do you know what XSA means.
Anyway I really just wanted to check with someone here before I go ahead with flashing it back to stock.

Wish I could help but all I can contribute is this: questions don't belong here, they belong in the QA section...
As for your search, if it were mine, I'd be looking for stock n8010 firmware... I don't think you could go wrong with that

Connect ta to PC. Run Kies and check out what your stock CSC code is that way. If it matches with XSA then go ahead and flash. I got mine through the net and my CSC is INU meaning it's an Indian tablet but I can still flash whatever I want on it.
Where'd you find the 32Gb tablet in Oz and for how much? I know a lot of places are selling 32Gb tablets but they're only 16Gb with a 16Gb microsd card or they're wifi only... I've been looking...

this is where you can get the stock firmware for N8010:

then flash it using odin.

Thanks yeah I downloaded the Kies program and the numbers seemed to match up to the firmware on the sammobile website so I'll go ahead with that.
You know you mentioned the 32GB 3G version I went and had a look and last time I was at jbhi about a month ago they had the 32GB 3G models,but now looking at their website today they only seem to stock the 16GB wifi model,so it looks like I am going to have to track one down elewhere,I'll let you know if I manage to find them anyway.

Thanks I am downloading it now,I'll do the firmware update when it downloads.

There was one other question I had,I read somewhere that when you root the note 10.1 samsungs has some sort of counter going on,and somehow I have to reset the triangles before I restore the original firmware,do you know how I go about doing this.

That counter is to show Samsung that you have flashed non stock firmware on your device. Triangle away on market fixes this.read thread on here about using it.
I have heard that Samsung does not void warranty for hardware issues even if your Device is not stock.so not sure how important it is to remove the troangle count. It would most likely prevent you from returning it to store if they check the device..only my best guess

ok thanks for that,I will go and download that triangle away app on the market before going ahead,there is one other problem I have just noticed,I am having trouble trying to get the odin3 1.85 program to recognize the stock image I downloaded,like when I start up the odin3 1.85 and I press the pda button to browse for the stock image which is called N8010XWALG4_N8010XSAALG3_XSA.zip odin3 can't see the file for some reason,I noticed on the right side it seems to be looking for .tar images,but the problem is the stock image N8010XWALG4_N8010XSAALG3_XSA.zip I downloaded is a zip file.
Do you know what I am doing wrong here.

Maybe the stock download was ziped to compress it.try unzipping. Unless you downloaded a cwm flashable zip.

Odin files are supposed to be TAR not ZIP

yeah it was zipped so I went and extracted the original zip file and it extracted a file called KIES_HOME_N8010XWALG4_N8010XSAALG3_976376_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5 so I deleted the .md5 from the end of the file name and left the .tar to make it a tar again,don't know why samsung put .md5 at the end of a .tar file,anyway once I changed it to read as a tar file I loaded it up in odin3 and it started to flash the new image.
It took about 4 minutes to do the flash but now it's all good I am backj running the stock firmware,to make sure I held down the power and volume up buttons and it went to the stock recovery mode instead of the ClockworkMod recovery.
Also I got that triangles away program and reset the counter just in case.
Anyway thanks for your help.

[Q] [HELP] cyanogen 10 reroot gone wrong on galaxy s blaze

I just installed the cyanogen 10 mod to my blaze and tried it. i went to this file manager that told me to reroot my phone so that I may be able to use it better. I went to odin to reroot it again but i accidentally used the original blaze.pit file on it and when it rebooted it showed me the original samsung starter instead of the cyanogen mod starter. That wasn't the problem, the problem was it never went in to the phones home screen or apps. Instead it continues to show the samsung logo and the flying android over and over again. I tried using the SGH-T769-hitsquad tar file to fix it (i need to mention that i bricked it once before and used this tar file to fix it) but it keeps taking me to the samsung logo. I can't even try to factory restore it because it just starts acting strange when I go to the menu. I can still go into download mode, i've gone searching for a file or anything to help me fix it but i can't find anything. Please, any suggestions?!

Here's a link to stock Tmo Blaze tar's from GB to ICS. ICS is the UVLH5 file. I suggest download that one.. then flash that file through odin.. dont include a Blaze pit file. just PDA file which is the one you'll download.
EDIT:
They're the ones ontop of the page that says Firmwares for SGH-T769 - USA (T-Mobile)
Let me know if it works for you.

Just use that superuser.zip file, unless you want SuperSU, which I think it's better,

You're welcome. I assume you have the usb drivers for windows. If not, dowload Kies then uninstall Kies, the drivers are separate, so they won't be uninstalled unless you opt to uninstall them. If you do keep Kies, make sure it is not running when you perform the procedure.

is this possible with p310?

P3100? Sure, just get the correct firmware for your device and follow the instructions at android authority. Link is a couple posts up. Also, I believe a stock firmware is available in our xda forum. Just search for the stock p3100 or register at sammobile and download. I assume you rooted and already have Odin.

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/32155-guide-tab-2-101-and-70-rootingcwmroms/ has the stock. Flashing any manufacturer stock will unroot and install firmware and original recovery and not increase counter. And yes, same as flashing any rom, select the md5 file, etc.

So i'm going to download the pt310 firmware update from sammobile. Will i need a pit file to go with that? or can i use the pt311 ones on the andriod authority
Hopefully i'll get this sorted once sammobile let's me in log in... taking ages

Download only p3100--p3110-- is wifi only. Likely doesn't need a pit file, but don't quote me on that.

[Q] What do I do to upgrade 4.1.1. (Ger) to 4.1.2. (Ger)? (I've forgotten!)

Hi all
Sorry to bother you. I upgraded my UK Note to the German JB 4.1.1. a few weeks ago and it's been flying since. I noticed today though, that SamMobile had the German 4.1.2. version available for download (N8010XXUCMA5 / N8010OXACMA5), so I'm now in the process of downloading it.
What I need to know is, is it simply a case of me doing what I did to upgrade to JB before? I used Odin if I remember right, and pointed it toward the ROM I wanted to flash with. Is that all that's needed?
Also, do I need to backup my present setup or won't it affect my present apps when I flash with 4.1.2.?
Many thanks guys

Odin flash --> User Data/Apps is not deleted --> reroot (if you want)
Backup is always a good idea

Backing up your current setup is always a good idea, but I had no issue when I flashed it.
Assuming that your not rooted, use Odin or use Exynos Abuse to root and then...
If you are rooted then get a copy of Mobile Odin and select everroot.

Thanks guys
I'm not rooted at the moment. Do I need to root? I haven't felt the need to do so until now, so I'm not really bothered about rooting...

No pressing need to root so if you don't want to, then just use Odin to flash it.

You do not need to root to flash using odin just go on the link on my signature to get the tutorial

Great.
One more question. I swapped from a UK ROM to the German JB one. Is it an easy procedure to go back to the official UK ROM if and when ver. 4.1.2. is available in the UK?
Cheers

Yes it should not be a problem the same procedure but make sure you take a back up

Thanks all
11 minutes and counting before the new ROM is d/loaded...

Just had a look at the rooting guide (thanks Samir) and the first option looks very easy (ExynosAbuse app). If I was to use this method would I lose any functionality of the Note at all? Also, if I have to send my Note back, would Samsung object to the note having been rooted?
Cheers

I dont think mobile odin will flash the hidden or bootloaders, odin or heimdall is a better option
the exynos abuse patch doesn't work on the MA (4.1.2) builds, if you want root use cfautoroot through odin on those.
Rooting will cause issues with samsungs warranty. If you need to return a device to samsung then you need to restore it to stock rom, with no root, they are using a binary counter though that you can get rid of by using triangleaway.
don't forget to use the search on the forum for these topics, there's been quite a bit about them

Well I've followed the instructions like last time, but it won't update - it keeps saying the process has 'FAILED'
Can anyone shed any light on why I can't update???

Confirm that Kies is not running

Thanks Zachisimo,
I followed the steps to a "T" and after I flashed my Tab 3, 10.1 nothing seem to be changed.
I have a working tablet but nothing was changed to factory default.
All that I had checked was the Auto Reboot & Reset Time option.
I will re-flash this rom via Odin, Again...
Should I had checked the Re-Partition Option?
Thanks in advance for getting me this far :good:

Oh yes, I never had a problem with that.
I problem was not getting the correct TWRP 2.7 installed so that I could flash a rom.
I was able to use TWRP 2.6.1 that still remained even after I Odin the stock rom twice, to flash Super User but I could not flash a larger zip like the Crash Rom or Infamous Rom on this tablet.
Weird, I dont know why I am not getting factory default.
What do I do to get back to factory . . .

It doesnt look like those roms are available for this tablet. But flashing my ODIN files should make your tablet 100% factory again

Doily noted Zachisimo, but I have not achieved stock after 3 attempts at flashing Odin with the said stock rom and Odin.
I have the same working rom with a recovery that I want to change and cant.
Even after I Odin the rom, I do get stock recovery back. but no factory default
I Odin the TWRP 2.7 and later reboot into TWRP, I get the TWRP 2.6.1
Something gotta give....
