Been seeing a lot of post about how to install OTA with a rooted stock ROM. This is by far the easiest way for people to update and not lose any data. All are done using Odin 3.07 on Windows 7 and not going to link it or how to use it lots of tutorials out that show you.
To put in Download Mode -> Vol Down + Home + Power
To Boot into Recovery -> Vol Up + Home + Power
Things needed:
ROM
CWM-Recovery
Root zip file
ROMS
NOTE: These are the FULL firmware of LH1 and NOT small OTA. This is good to have as a backup should something go wrong.
Bell
Telus
Rogers
Sasktel
CWM-Recovery
See Attached, this is an Official CWM from CWM team. If you don't want to use this use whatever recovery you want or had before.
Root: MOVE THIS TO PHONE STORAGE
Chainfire SuperSU
1.) Boot into recovery and create backup, always better to backup
2.) Unzip firmware file and you will see 2 files a dll and md5. The one we need is the md5
Im with bell so mines is -> KIES_HOME_I747MVLALH1_I747MOYCALH1_20120814.100513_REV04_user_low_ship.tar.md5
3.) Put phone into download mode
4.) Load Odin select PDA and select the firmware file you unzipped in step 2. The MD5 file.
5.) Let the phone do its thing and do not touch it until you are at the lockscreen.
7.) Boot into download mode again and select PDA and this time select the recovery tar file
8.) Uncheck F. Reset and flash
9.) Once back on the lockscreen go into Recovery and install the CWM-SuperSU-v0.96.zip to root from phone storage.
10.) Get Triangle Away from here and reset counter.

Instructions are in his OP. I have pasted below:
7.) In Odin: Boot into download mode again and select PDA and this time select the recovery tar file (he has attached odin flashable cwm tar in the op)
8.) Uncheck F. Reset and flash
After that you will have CWM. Go to step 9 if you want to root and install SuperSU.
I already updated via Kies and of course now lost my root. If I follow this method (now, after the update) will I get root back or is there another method you guys would recommend? Thanks

You have essentially completed steps 1-5 above using Kies. Go to step 7 (6 is missing) and follow instructions to flash the CWM tar file attached in OP via ODIN and the supersu zip via CWM and you are done.
I was about to follow the video guide found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1728824 which shows you how to root and install CWM without tripping the flash counter. Can I follow his installation instructions, but instead use the rooted stock Telus rom linked to in this thread? I assume that if i follow the guide in his thread and use the files he links to, I will end up re-flashing the stock 4.0.1 rom instead of the new 4.0.4, which I want to keep.
Plus I want to have CWM and not trip my flash counter so I dont need to bother with Triangle Away.
This is my first time rooting or flashing anything to my phone, so my apologies for my extreme n00bness. Thanks

If you use the rooted ROM in the other thread you will have that version and not the August LH1 update, remember the ones i linked are full stock firmware. Maybe someone will create a stock rooted flashable odin tar, but you really dont need it. Just flash using the above steps and use Triangle Away. Triangle Away although dangerous does no harm at all, its a simple apk file that installs like any other app, once you confirm it is displaying the correct model (our is I747M) then just hit the reset counter and let it do its thing and then you can uninstall it simple as that.
No point in waiting for someone to create a no trip counter file because that is much hard to do. Plus the only reason I think the first ones where like that was because Triangle Away did not fully support the I747M.

The thread for the no trip method referred to in that video is here. The OP in that thread is still working on root injected versions for the new Canadian firmwares, the ones currently in the OP are the old versions. He can create them quickly, I think he is just waiting for volunteers to mirror the files. Keep checking and when you see a Telus version up ending in LH1, you are good to go.
Thanks OP, that works just fine to reroot my phone and reset the trip counter!
I have a rogers Galaxy SIII if that could help anyone!

Hi, I made this easier a little bit. Follow the posted guide from the op
Download your FW and Odin 3.07 (and ofc sammy drivers and what not)
1.) Boot into recovery and create backup, always better to backup
2.) Unzip firmware file and you will see 2 files a dll and md5. The one we need is the md5
Im with bell so mines is -> KIES_HOME_I747MVLALH1_I747MOYCALH1_20120814.100513 _REV04_user_low_ship.tar.md5
3.) Put phone into download mode
4.) Load Odin select PDA and select the firmware file you unzipped in step 2. The MD5 file.
5.) Let the phone do its thing and do not touch it until you are at the lockscreen.
7.) Boot into download mode again and select PDA and this time select the recovery tar file

Then
8.) click start, wait for you to go back to lockscreen.
9.) Flash the zip attached below (through your CWM) (vol up+ power button+ home button to get to recovery)
[BOOM you have root!]
10.) get triangle away, reset flash counter.
I did not make the zip i just got it from searching around.
Hello all. I have posted this problem/question before but received no help. So im posting it again. I recently rooted my S3 and installed cyanogenmod and decided I like touchwiz so I decided to unroot it. So I installed triangle away to delete any traces of root and the process was completed nicely. Then I flashed a stock rom that I downloaded online. Then I did a stock factory reset. But it doesnt feel right. There are slight graphics glitches with opening some apps. Like opening facebook messanger will display white and black lines untill it loads up. I tried the whole reinstall thing and no help. There are other similar glitches. Can anyone help me? I want my s3 fully stock like it was straight from att.

I would try another file download location (which you did not specify where you downloaded from). You might also try and redownload and ensure to do an MD5 check. Of course this means factory resetting again and ODIN.
If nothing else, download rooted ROM from Mr.Robinson's post and unroot it. This will keep your flash counter as is.

Follow this thread for downloading stock roms: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1968625. After unzipping most should end with the file name .md5. ODIN will do the md5 check automatically for you. Just pay attention to the prompts.
If you find that this does not work, go here and download rooted rom to be flashed via ODIN. You can then remove root.
If the file is not ODIN flashable with an md5 at the end, look for a long string of digits and letters that should be right by the download. A good example to know what I am talking about is to take a look at the site for rooted stock roms. Notice the md5 under the Old image AT&T file download link. Download and extract this file and follow the directions.

I tried Mr. Robinson's rooted stock rom, and it has the exact same issue.... Is it all just in my head? Please do help. My S3 isn't perfect anymore and i'm really OCD about it. I regret ever rooting.
This is a stock MI7 tmobile firmware downloaded from sammobile and rooted using URDLV.
I am uploading this to those who don't want to(or don't know to) use cygwin to generate the rooted firmware described in the root de la vega thread.
None of this is my work, All CREDITS GOES to designgears
If you follow the instructions properly, this is will not set your KNOX flag , THIS WILL NOT RESET IF IT'S ALREADY SET.
Instructions
1. Open ODIN, make sure Re-Partition is unchecked. Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time must be checked.(you can get ODIN from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189539)
2. Connect your phone to your PC and reboot it to the download mode(Volume Down+Home+Power keys simultaneously).
3. Once ODIN shows your device connected(ID-COM bar lit up and log says 'Added')
4. Drop the unzipped downloaded Rom( N900TUVUBMI7_N900TTMBBMI7_N900TUVUBMI7_HOME_VEGA.tar.md5 file) in the AP slot, and click start.
5. It takes a while, once its completed, device will reboot and ODIN will show 'PASS' in green.
6. Now download the root_de_la_vega_sdcard.7z file from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46818366
7. Unzip it and place the contents(a root_de_la_vega.sh script file and root_files folder) in the root of your phone memory(internal storage).
7. Reboot.
8. Delete the newly added files(a root_de_la_vega.sh script file and root_files folder) and Reboot again
You are done!! , Now you are Rooted and stock.
I urge you to follow this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46818366 , this thread is only for those who don't have basic UNIX knowledge or don't want to install cygwin for some reason.

This was tested only by me and it worked for me without any issues , no force closes or anything. My phone also came with MI7, i don't know if it will work if your phone came with a different firmware.
This is only T-Mobile NOTE 3

I wonder why this stock Odin flash firmware is only approximatly 1/2 the size
of the official stock Note 3 N900T MK2 firmware found on SamMobile.com?
If all that's been done to it is root, it should be about the same size.

You are right about bmi7 for tmobile, but I was wondering why designgear's odin flash
rooted is so much smaller than the SamMobile official stock firmware.
If designgear's is also supposed to be stock firmware it should be about the same size
as the official stock firmware at sammobile.
Size is different because its a zip file, if you unzip it will be same 1.84 gb file.

My buddy just got a T-Mobile Note 3 about 4 hours ago with MI7 firmware and want to know if I would root it for him (note: he didn't care if Knox was tripped or not, not something he will ever use), so I figured I'd try the instruction you've posted here to see if would trip Knox or not.
I can say that this DOES work, Knox still at 0x0

I was able to locate a copy of the file via Google and flashed it last night, then rooted. Got that done so then I used my Google backup to restore my phone. Is there any real harm in flashing back to the stock version then going back to rooted later, as long as I haven't done any system updates? I ask because Isis still complains about being rooted, and it was a PITA to get it working on my VZ Note 2. Since I can't nandroid back and forth between roms like on the Note 2, I have to use Odin and flash firmware. They have to make such a production out of it-I miss fastboot and flashing ROM's till all hours of the morning!

Best to flash the official stock rom since you don't have much info on what was flashed on this note 2 before you bought it.
If you're interested in stock kitkat rom then get it from here Here extract the zip file you'll find the .tar.md5 file place it in the pda/ap option in odin ,put your phone into download mode ,connect it to odin ,make sure you've installed all the samsung drivers and such and then hit start and let odin do it's job should take around 25 mins or so.Good luck.

Most (not all) of the time, you can just pull the battery out while the phone is trying to load and stuck at the screen. Sometimes this fixes bootlop and non-booting issues. If it does not, then you'll want to follow the procedure above and flash another ROM accordingly.

This just isn't true, sorry.
Most of the time boot issues are rom/kernel/data issues. So wiping data, aflashing roms or flashing a kernels are the most common fixes.
Typically the first two.
i recently got bootloop because of an app delayed lock.
fixed by using aroma file manager to delete 2 files
/data/system/locksettings.db
/data/system/locksettings.db-shm

Hey guys, I know a lot of us has been stuck with paper weights since we messed up flashing our phones thinking the L710 and L710t were the same... sooo, if you lost your imei and baseband unkown and no network and no audio and all these issues and just want to go back to stock.. you've come to the right place.
Remember this is for the sprint sph l710T .... note the T for triband lol
Step 1. Download Odin (search google)
Step 2. .tar file from here (https://mega.co.nz/#!cBBDEBpJ!t5IAcCaMg2w7GDI0zhhmZw0e7jh0Uv0v4gJpsH8gb6o)
put this in to odin in the pda section (note: if the file gives an md5 mismatch of some sort, remove (.md5) from the extension to leave the .tar)
step 3. put your phone in download mode... flash that shiiiiii, be patient and profit!
youre very welcome
BIIIGGGGG THANKS TO THESE GUYS FROM ANDROID FORUMS
Kdude63 for the link
the_dumbest_noob for actually pulling the .tar for kies to save our behinds!
yep i can verify i had to get this version cause the charging port on my phone died and according to the site it came from it should work across the board with Sprint, Boost, and Virgin Sph-L710T
I made a flashable zip that De-Odex the stock rom https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95832962473400340 check it out if you want but read the description
Great news, thanks to all who made this happen!
I'm a novice at this, If I flash this .tar my phone will no longer be rooted, correct?

if you flash the stock tar that is provided it will erase your entire phone except for the external storage and then replace it all with whats inside of it including your recovery

I see, thanks! What then would be the benefit of flashing the deodex zip posted above? Will that allow me to uninstall bloatware? What's the purpose?

De-Odex helps for themeing and swapping out system apps that aren't from Google.....like if you want a updated Samsung app like the music player for instance

Copy that. Out of curiosity, it appears most people need this .tar because they lost their baseband / modems after installing a different rom. Wouldn't it be easier to just flash the L710T NF4 modem firmware? I downloaded it and was going to try it with a few roms that were messing with my baseband. Thoughts?

that file basically just puts the right files in on your SD card which then can be used in PhilZ via custom restore i believe....let me check into that
Will this work for SPH-L710T on Virgin Mobile?
Because this happened to my friend on her's: http://androidforums.com/threads/sph-710t-deleted-google-play-services.887991/
TLR=She deleted Google Play Services and her phone is all kinds of screwed up, factory reset didn't help the phone refresh the system file on its own, so either I need the stock .tar OR someone to upload me their Google Play Services system app (my Stratosphere II's usually works once but I think Google Play tries to update it and it fails and then all the problems start again)

So her phone wouldn't get screwed up with any kind of modem/network setting incompatibility because she's a Virgin Mobile subscriber and this was pulled from a Sprint L710T would it?

correct it won't get screwed up
the one custom rom that will boot without the need for stock kernel is Conquest Singularity link https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=15185 currently im running the Conquest-Singularity-10-beta9-Full.zip with the Conquest-Singularity-10-b10-update.zip everything seems to work fine except for the rotation but someone over at android forums says Conquest-Singularity-9-Full.zip by it self works including rotation he never mentioned the Conquest-Singularity-9.5-Update.zip so that's basically it to figure out how to install this amazing rom go to the Closed OP here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2774902

or the AP slot for Odin 3.09+
(you might want to add that to the OP)
THANK YOU, her phone is back to normal and it even kept her model intact!
And now I backed up her phone (Titanium and Nandroid) right this time (to SD not internal)
flash this kernel after you flash Conquest so rotation gets fixed https://www.dropbox.com/sh/5y5w6clj...T747-TW-KK-4.4-ATT-05-13-2014 kernel.zip?dl=0
You sir, have fixed my phone.
THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH! It actually worked! After 2 weeks of searching, this thing actually worked! I will definitely recommend this page to anyone who has the same problem.

Do you still have this TAR available? The mega.co.nz link says the file is not available. I am in this exact same predicament where I thought this phone was the same as the L710 and now... I can't get anything I try to work. Always stuck in a boot-loop and I've tried a couple ROMs. I also can't seem to find a Stock ROM anywhere!

I hate bumping an old thread, but in this case, I'm in the same predicament after flashing an OS and not having a way to update the PRL and such. The L710T TAR would be greatly appreciated.
