Galaxy note downgraded to KJ1 kies drivers fail to install

If you have problems installing Kies Galaxy Note GT-N7000 drivers in Win 7 after downgrade to KJ1, just flash a newer rom like LC1 and they will install without problems. Maybe KJ1 is too old for newer Kies.
Please thank if you find this useful.

[Q] oden version?

I used Odin 1.85 to update (root) my SGH-I747M (Canadian SG3) and it worked fine using the proper Tar file. I meant to use Odin V3.07 to do the update but inadvertently used V1.85. Is there any problem with that?

[Q] heimdall

Can we use heimdall instead of odin to flash the new android 4.1 to our tab2 p5110 as in this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2029265
I think so. As long is the device is supported, Heimdall is functionally no different from ODIN.
Posted from my Galaxy Tab with CM10
Ok than i try it
I'm still not sure if i install this version or the aopk version.

'Unrooting" Samsung Galaxy S5

I rooted my Galaxy S5 a while back (using Chainfire's ROM) and may now be looking to trade it at CEX. Because of this I want to restore the operating system back to Samsung's standard software. I have downloaded this from Sammobile and have ZIP file G900FXXU1BNL2_G900FXEO1BNL1_G900FXXU1BNL2_HOME.zip
This looks to contain all the necessary files but I can't find any way to install this using Odin as this requires a TAR or MD5 file extension. I have tried using KIES to reinstall the Samsung firmware but this has been superseded by Smart Switch which does not pick the phone up when I put it in recovery mode. All the instructions I have found talk about using Odin to reinstall the stock Samsung furmware (I am using Odin 3.10) but I can't see how to do this.
Anyone have any walkthoughs they could give me?
Thanks
Dave
