Reflashing to Stock - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I am currently on the CM10.1 nightlies on my Canadian N8010. I'm now trying to reflash the stock rom back onto it, but I'm not sure which one to flash. samfirmware has stock roms for almost every contry, except for teh Canadian one. Does anyone know which rom i should be flashing, ie is there no Canadian one, and where i should find it?

Ah thank you.
I will update you if i find your stock firmware.

You Can Use ODIN On Your PC, Or Mobile ODIN On Your Device To Flash The Stock .tar Files....
I'd Try Sammobile.com For stock firmware...

Hey, i just chatted with a samsung support guy. He said there are no firmwares available on the website nor anywhere else.
You can only get updates with kies. but that is not the way you want it.....

you could try using a different language. but i dont know if it can damage your tablet.

Sock roms are interchangeable through regions. That's how most people got JB when it wa first released for Germany only....
Just be aware however that flashing a stock rom will change your CSC (region code), you will need to change back with the CSC Changer app available in app store HOWEVER, make sure to backup the contents on your Internal memory first or you will loose it.

[Q] Stock GT-N8013 Samsung ROM

Does anyone know where or even if there are just plain vanilla stock unrooted Samsung ROMS for the Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8013 (US variant)?? I rooted and flashed a custom ROM to my tablet and after awhile, I decided I wanted to go back to complete stock. I have seen threads with the original stock kernel and recovery, but I sort of wanted a full, 1gig+ stock unrooted ROM offered by Samsung.. I have seen stock ROMs for other series of this tablet, but I have been unable to find any for the N8013. Any help would be great! Thanks!
Sammobile.com has it, but ics only.

Go to www.samfirmware.com and select the firmware tab. Once you enter your tab details, the available firmware is there to download.
Install with Odin and you'll have your stock tab back.
I did that recently having installed the UK JB firmware, but managed to get a binary count of 12 (increased by 2 per flash)
Now I am back to standard and waiting for the official OTA upgrade *yawn*
Good luck

did you use triangle away to reset the counter? thanks in advance
Goto samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-N8013 CMA3 v4.1.2 date 09.01.2013
I just want to point out to stop any confusion, GT-N8013 US country name is cellular south (XAR) and not United States.
Also, here is the link for sammobile:

You can go to the link in my signature and download the firmware from there all of them are stock untouched

Can't Get Firmware
Unfortunately, SamFirmWare.com won't let me download the firmware. It asks me to log in, and I do. Then when I go to the Firmware page, it forgets who I am, and tells me to log in again. It doesn't forget anywhere else, JUST on the firmware page.
I tried setting up another account, but they want my credit card info for that now, and I ain't giving that out!
I know that this is the name of the file you are looking for. Do a search for it and this will get you back to a stock ROM.
I know because I had to use it once to recover a quasi-brick issue on my tablet.

Not exactly what you're looking for but this one is all stock, latest firmware except it is deodexed and retains root. You can re-odex the ROM if you want. Been running it for a while now and it's been pretty damn good.

It's only needed to reset the flash count, if your not worried about the count and or out of warranty then you don't really need it.

I downloaded the file.
so do I put it in the root of the internal storage and then ....go into recovery mode and flash with Triangle away already installed?
Just trying to be absolutely sure.

As stated in post #14 above......
Install Triangle Away first then run the app to clear firmware counts.
Connect tablet to a PC via factory USB cable.
Boot tablet into Odin mode, start Odin app on PC and in PDA line direct the app to the N8013UEUCMI3_N8013XARCMI3_XAR.zip
file and press Start in Odin app.
After restart do a factory reset from tablet recover mode.
Done

you're right, i've (tried) to help people with your tab I497's and can't find the original firmware anywhere. a few people state that the Jamaica firmware works (though i know that's not what you're after) i'm just googling ways to make backups from CWM backups.

how did you update to 4.3? if its a custom rom, you can just flash 4.2.2 again, then install the rom. if its by ota or kies, install 4.2.2 and update the same way again.

I dont think its a custom rom.. After i bricked my old motherboard i bought this new one from ebay.. It had 4.3 pre installed from OTA update i think.. Then i rooted the phone and kept getting the "system ui" error, then i unrooted the phone and hard reset it, didnt fix the problem. So im trying to flash UCUEMK2 which my phone already has.. 4.2.2 has many bugs and i cant send apps to memory card in 4.2.2 thats why im trying to get 4.3.. Thanks

I actually already have the PA file for the 4.3 already downloaded to my laptop but the tutorial i used told me to download the PIT file as well, and the comments that tutorial received werent good, and the other tutorials ive seen never used a pit files.. Thats y im confused.. It would be easy to flash 4.2.2 but the problem is i live in Ireland and we didnt get the 4.3 update here yet and i cant use OTA as its locked to AT&T.. Its very confusing i know.. But thank you so much for helping me

well, you can try without the .pit, if it dosent work do it again with, its simple. if you brick it, then use the 4..2.2 to uynbrick then try the other method, so no matter what its not a biggie.

Yeah if u hard brick it, the phone doesnt do anything.. Not even charge or flash a light.. Its just completely dead.. You could get it unbricked if ur living in USA or UK and few other countries using JTag method but in ireland they dont have the tools to do it, not even the samsung repair shop, so i had to buy a new motherboard.. Thats why im very scared to do this..

Soft bricked SPH-G925P

Sprint s6 edge it was boot looping only staying in Android for maybe 3-5 mins at a time. So i tried to flash it. I may have flashed 5.0.x to it. Now when I try to flash I can flash cm.bin, sboot and it always dies on boot.img. I really need some guidance on what i should try next.
Looking around shows boot.img not flashing is possibly the kernel but I am having trouble finding one that it will let me flash.

It worked for me. I have a friend who did the same thing and thought the phone was a gonner. I told her I'd give it a try and I was able to Odin (v.3.10.6) to OF7, took the OTA to OH1 and flashed Wicked One SS v.3.0 from @dazednconfused and she says it's running perfect.
Also, @Soooperstar Odin file here.

the latest one. I've seen various other flashing posts saying you should use a slightly older Oden.
Also side rant. I did a chat with samsung support and they said the Smart Switch recovery doesn't work with the S6? I cannot get it to verify the serial number of my phone (s6) and the broken one (s6 e)

I'm not sure which version you are referring to as the latest one, but the only version that will work with what you're trying to accomplish is 3.10.6

It should say it on the tar file. It's worth a try but you're probably dead. Here is the file if you need it but like I said, most likely you're done.

Well your file got me way further than I've got before. I can get it to write the system.img in "BL" but if i use AP it fails about 1/2 the way through

Like I said from my knowledge, you should be hard bricked, but if someone else went from 5.1.1 to 5.0.X and back, you might want to find out what they did. Don't think it's possible

Please help me!!! I'm in need of assistance

I just bought a galaxy s8 plus phone. The Wi-Fi keeps saying turning on, but doesn't actually turn on. It's not my router because I can get my galaxy s7 phone to connect no issue. It's a Samsung G955U and 7.0
Any thoughts?
You can try a factor y reset and or stock firmware
Reinstall. Sometimes stock can be broken as well.

Could you guide me to a thread where I can do that? I know I'll need to reinstall Odin and flash everything

Mine is Verizon. SnapDragonG955U. I found the firmware for my phone. Can you direct me to the thread where I can flash the firmware for this phone? Ive found a thread for rooting that is part cyborg. It looks like I can use that to root the phone. But I need to reflash the stock firmware first.

Also, which order do I flash them?
You put ap bl and co in respective slots in Odin. And I use the home csc in csc slot. Flash all together
You won't use the user data

So I tried this and wifi still isnt turning on. Am I missing something?
If software didn't fix. Then it's a hardware issue. But In my life I've seen out like 5 times or so

Only other thing I know to do is try a couple firmwares and maybe one of the combo files around. If none of that works then a ram with Sammy may be the only option. As this is about everything you can try on your end.
Unless some one else wants to chime in with something I didn't think of.
Ps I had this happen on my LG g3. Camera could not connect. Flash many roms. Flash this that. Nothing. And all because they used apparently the same base I had. I bricked. Or something downloaded a new firmware from a new site and flashed and bam. No camera issue from there on out
