[Completed] Unrooted Galaxy Note 3 - XDA Assist

Hello Forum,
I recently rooted my Galaxy Note 3 without tripping knox and then Unrooted it. However, when I try to update my phone it says "Update failed. Your device will recover the original configuration.". Any suggestions?

Which carrier do you have? There are a couple ways to fix this, easiest is to completely return to stock. Reply with what carrier your on and I will link you to a guide.
Thank you.

It says that I need to be updated to the latest stock firmware. Due to the updates failing after Un-Rooting, I cannot update.

Bless your heart, I don't think that there's any way to downgrade to 4.1 from 4.3 without royally messing up your phone.
If I am wrong, someone please let me know.

Nope your right there isn't. Once your on 4.3 your on a locked BootLoader if you took the ota
And since they aren't or even can't send it back to the USA the only other option in the jtag service wouldn't be an option at this point
From my Wicked S3 on SOKP
So ur saying there is no going back to 4.3 even
How do i get my phone working i dont want it downgrade

Plz help i tried all the ways showen on the forum
I think that each incremental upgrade does something to the system to keep you from downgrading because everything that I've read on this makes it seem like it's more trouble than it's worth.
Now you can go to sammobile. com and search for the i535 rom and flash it on your phone.

If your on the 4.3 OTA it won't work when you use Odin. Your more than likely going to brick the phone that way. There's no way around it
From my Wicked S3 on SOKP
I think the OP is just trying to get back to 4.3 which is the condition in which he purchased the phone. You should be fine flashing through ODIN either one of the 4.3 full stock files (VRUCML1 or VRUCNC1) listed first in the first post of this thread:

[Q] Noob Question re: what rom to flash

Hi All,
Newbie here, I have a samsung s4 that has been rooted and CMW installed and I'd like to flash it back to stock. The phone was originally locked to virgin mobile Canada but I paid to get it unlocked. Do I need a ROM specific to virgin mobile to flash back to stock or will any one do as long as it's for the S4? for example I've seen ones that are for at&t, rogers, bell, etc... does it make any difference?
Reason I want to flash back to rom is to be able to get the OTA updates again and be able to upgrade to lolipop when it comes out. In fact, is there a way to re-activate OTA with out having to reflash?
thanks in advance, keep up the excellent work!

I think you are talking about unrooting.To do this you have to go to SuperSu and settings(whatever it is called).There is an option called "permanent unroot" this should takeaway your root access

Hi Kobro,
Does it matter what type of ROM I use? My phone is an s4 originally locked to Virgin Mobile Canada, does this mean I need to find specifically a Virgin Mobile Canada ROM for my s4 or will any stock ROM do as long as it's for s4? (I haven't been able to find a Virgin Mobile Canada stock ROM anywhere for the s4)
Thanks in advance!

any s4 stock rom should do the trick
however, you should try sammobile.com to seeif they have the carrier specific firmware.
After flashin with odin i suggest to use kies to control the latest version.
Thanks everyone for your helpful replies. I might wait till Lolipop is officially released for s4 before I flash back to stock. S4 Lolipop here I come!

Looking to root new S6

Hi all. I'm to finally make the switch from my s4 to the s6. Now can i use pingpong to root a verizon s6? I looked at the thread, but it looked like Verizon is not supported, or maybe I'm wrong? Also from reading the thread, is it true pingpong will not trip Knox so I could unroot for warranty issues?
thanks for any info

I'll give you a quick answer but all your questions are answered in the ping pong thread in Verizon S6 General. I have the latest OT applied and ping pong roots it fine, just do download data before get root. The latest Verizon version is rootable. It will not trip knox.
Good luck

Sorry, one question.
I just got my S6.
Not there is an OTA update out there. Should I install the OTA update before rooting. I know if was said to do it, but I didn't know if that will put me past the AOC3 version and then I won't be able to root.
Thanks

looking for stock official samsung rom

Hey guys I know that this question has been asked many times and i know that there are many tutorial that show you how to return your verizon galaxy s3 back to stock rom.
My verizon S3 is running 4.3 and it has the locked bootloader but i want to be able to flash the kitkat update using Odin however every tutorial i look at and every link i follow is not working when i try and download the stock firmware.
Can someone here help point me into the right direction and possibly provide me with a link to the official samsung (verizon) firmware for model SCH-i535. If you can provide a good tutorial that would be great as well!
Thank you so much for your assistance and time...

Alright. Here's the thread, be advised the bootloader will be even more locked down. With TW 4.3 there is more options for roms. With the 4.4 update your stuck with 3 options

I think they mean to say he can't find the firmware for his phone. I personally haven't heard of Cspire so this may be why. The MetroPCS firmware took a while to be found. In any case, find your firmware HERE but I can't be sure it may be there. Good luck.
Stock Firmware

If your model number happens to be a SM-G930R7, I happened to find a working stock firmware to recover the OS back to working order. If you do have said model, I can set the files up somewhere for download and you just do the usual with Odin.
