Thats the same one... Rogers/Telus/Bell share the same i747M and is the same as the AT&T variant

Any reason as to why it says Rogers / Bell, with no mention of Telus?

Telus is mentioned in the thread title:

In any case, I'm on Telus; followed the instructions in that thread and rooted my phone with no problems.

for cwm use the lattes one if you intend to use it http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-6.0.1.2-d2att.img
you might also want to back up the original stock rom found here

Isn't the sgh-i717m the Bell Galaxy Note, and not the S3?
Looks like it's kind of hard to find the stock ROM downloads on this forum, so I decided to reupload it for the convenience of everyone and me. Are you stuck and need to start over fresh? Returning the phone to manufacturer/mobile service provider? Selling your phone and need original firmware? You are at the right thread. These are for Odin, not for CWM or other recoveries. Most of these are .zip/.rar file extension and if you need help extracting those get WinRAR. If your download is asking for a password, you can find it below in this post. Order is as follows: top is newest, bottom is oldest. You can also find stock ROMS on these websites:
External Sites:
I747:
www.samsung-updates.com
www.sammobile.com
www.sampro.pl
I747M:
www.samsung-updates.com
www.sammobile.com

Instructions:
1. Extract contents of the zip/rar archives
2. Wipe data-factory reset/cache/dalvik-cache
3. Flash the *.tar.md5 file with Odin.
4. Wipe data-factory reset/cache/dalvik-cache
5. Reboot

They're .rar files so I'm assuming Odin. Downloading right now to see what's in it...
EDIT: They're for Odin

I think you meant to say "OTA to LH9". I'd also mention that LH9 includes an annoying script that re-installs stock recovery on reboot, so if you plan to root and use a custom recovery like cwm or twrp, make sure you flash the remove-ota-recovery.zip file located here the first time you boot into custom recovery on LH9 so the annoying stock recovery doesn't keep coming back.

Yes you are correct. I did not pay attention when i post it... Thanks for correction..
If these are the stock firmware, it is most likely odexed.

no luck. pretty sure sammobile copied the existing MCT and just put GLW and VTR instead of MCT. the files are exactly the same size.
I have the Mobilicity version but have unlocked it to use with WIND the models are the same, when this becomes stable would it be possible to flash this version, I have found that things like the sim toolkit with WIND does not work and need that functionality.
