Hey guys, I got my phone sucessfully rooted and installed TWRP. But I don't in the process of installing a new ROM I wiped my device completely. How can I get back to complete stock ? Please help. I have the Canadian Version SM-N915W8. Thank you.

I appreciate an input on this. Updated my current ROM to 4.4.3 which is on firmware 2.21.605.2.I keep seeing people say you have to take the OTA ( if unlocked, S-0ff) to have new radios. If my ROM is on the new firmware do I still flash the new firmware zip?
Thank you

What ROM are you using? If you flash a custom ROM it does not update the firmware. I suggest reading this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2723159

Thank you for your help so far. One more question can I use Flashify to flash the zip?
Thank you again for helping
Edit: Read more. Has to be done via fastboot

No, you wouldn't be able to use flashify as you'd need to be in RUU mode. It's really simple and the directions are pretty straightforward.

since you asked you can do this using wugfresh's root toolkit but i dont see why you should get a replacement

You're running Optipop, a custom rom, and Uber, a custom kernel. You're going to have to update manually. You're not tied to that rom/kernel but it's a good combo.

Thanks how do i update manually? Sorry for all the questions

You can`t if you have have a custom rom, recovery, kernel and changed the system. You have to be full stock and made no alteration in any way to the system.

Oh ok,thanks. Anyway to go back stock or should i leave well enough alone?

You can always flash the full 5.0.1 factory image, but if you`re happy with your current rom just leave it as it is mate
I asked in the MOAR q&a thread but realized it's a generic question that does not generally pertain to the ROM. After the new stock update Odin is useless to flash any thing because it blocks any flashing at the bootloader. Is there any way to go stock if I haven't backed up anything? I'm currently running on the new update base and have MOAR speed racer flashed. Thank you for any help
Any fixes yet same thing I just ran into. I haven't used stock in so long I had no idea you couldn't go back

What version are you on now? As of PK1 firmware, you cannot flash back to a previous version, you would need PK1 or newer to go back to stock.

TWRP is for custom rom only.
Stock tar has to be flashed with odin.
