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.
Extract the
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.

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,

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

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.

Here is the download link for N8013UEUCMI3_N8013XARCMI3_XAR.zip, it is the latest factory firmware for the GT-N8013 USA version http://terafile.co/03043e576832/N8013UEUCMI3_N8013XARCMI3_XAR.zip
When the page opens you will see a clock for wait time, click on "Regular" and then wait your 10 seconds, enter captcha code and download file.
If your coming from root clear firmware counts with Triangle Away first, then do your firmware flash then a factory reset after firmware install.

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.

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

I'm sorry I can't really help you as I am still on 5.0.2 myself, but once you upgrade to 5.1.1, you cannot downgrade back to 5.0.2, which might the cause of some of your issues.

Don't inbox me for queries. Just quote me for or mention me. That'd be enough.
Which Odin version are you using?
I suggest using older version I.e 3.0.7 or 3.0.9
Quote me back
Odin the tar file for TWRP 2.8.7.1 to get a recovery on the phone first, then try once again to Odin the 5.0.2 stock firmware -- this is what worked for me in a similar situation where I could not Odin the stock firmware as the recovery somwehow was damaged and that was stopping Odon from completing a flash.

I would think just flashing the OEM firmware with Odin3 would reset phone back to factory would do the trick.

just reread your post and you did use Odin but was that the regular version or did you try the modified "prince consey" ( probably spelled that wrong)?

Are u sure you're flashing the correct firmware for your phone?
Go to sammobile and download a fresh firmware for your phone type and try flashing again.
And by the way did they (oneclickroot) or yourself flash any other firmware whether custom or not in the phone after rooting?
Or have you or them updated the bootloader and modem?

nope just asked and they say no bootloader updated, but i have the option of 19.99 for them to go back to stock smh.. now when looking for a working ATT stock firm do i look for my current baseband version?
So what happened?
I'm sure your bootloader got updated. Have to find firmware with same bootloader. Something that has u2...
