HELP! GS5 unroot - Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I rooted my GS5 from sprint today, the sm-g900p version and unrooted it using super user, when it was unrooted and rebooted itself the google play store stopped working completely so i wiped it, and its still saying its running a custom ROM and now i cant sign into any google services on the phone. please help

Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck

Download the stock tar from sammobile.com and install with odin. That will bring you back to stock unrooted and correct whatever else you messed up.

You need to restore with kies 3 to get back to official status. That all that worked for me anyway.

[Q] downgrade 4.4.2 and install CM12.1

I just want to say thank you in advance for any help that is given, I use these threads a lot and this is the first time I've had to post a thread because I couldn't find an answer already.
Anyway, I have a Samsung S3 SCH-I535 with Verizon running the latest bootloader and Android 4.4.2. I want to install the latest Cyanogenmod and from what I've found online. The only way to do this is to downgrade sense the bootloader is locked. I've downlaoded all the files I need but odin gives me errors because the software is not authorized. I've tried safestrap and have succussfully installed the superliterom ver. 3 but ASOP do not work with safestrap so my only option is to downgrade the bootloader and manually install the latest CM12.1. Please someone help me with this. I've exhausted all my resources and don't know where to go next.

Mobile tech videos has a site with a mail in boot loader downgrade service. Seriously reputable. Takes a couple days and when you get it back your back to 4.1.2 with unlocked boot loader and back to flashing whatever you please

I've been following the mobile tech thread for quite some time, I'd take a look at this first before even considering them

If there is any way around the q-fuse, I haven't heard of it.
442 is stuck with locked bootloader ROMs, so far as I know.
There are a couple companies that offer downgrades and unlocked bootloaders, Mobile Tech Reviews being one of them, and the other being FWIW (I think).
I've heard good things about both, but have never tried them out.

As I noted above I'd be very careful with mobile tech videos as a ton of users have reported a not so great experience with them

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.

Have you tried just taking the OTA update? As long as your not rooted and didn't make any changes internally you should be able to take the OTA

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

[Completed] How do I unroot my tablet, as well as replace the custom with stock?

Okay, I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 Wifi. I ROOTED it using Kingroot. I did unroot using the kingroot, yet even though RootChecker says it is not rooted, in my settings about phone, it still says custom, and I cant update firmware. So I re rooted it with Kingroot. How do I unroot this, and get the custom to the stock? And, furthermore, can I do this without a PC?
