Not sure if anyone knows or notice.
When first time phone comes
It has
Factory Mode
System Status: Official
After rooted and reset by Triangle Away
Odin Mode
System Status: Custom
I thought it would reset everything back to factory like first time but no.
Unless I miss something.
Thanks.

After you flash triangle away you need to Odin back to the stock unrooted signed package and it will be 100% stock.

I have my device rooted and have a custom modem and rom and recovery..... Is there a way I can just flash it so that Samsung does not know I made those changes to the phone....? I already have triangle software to get it back to official status but what about anything else...? Will they make me pay if they find out it was rooted and modified or will they just ship it back? THANKS in advance guys!! The buttons on the device stick and I have a bad camera so it def needs to be fixed...
I just did that last night to my phone. And it's fully stock right now as if I bought it from a t mobile store.
Download the official lh2 update from samsung-updates. Com
Before you Odin it. Use triangle away to reset count to 0. Reset and wipe. Then do a full Odin if the official lh2 update.
It will flash the modem and official software

Thanks everyone! I guess I missed that in my search through the forums... I should be all good now! :victory: I hope that Samsung actually fixes all of my problems... This is my first time dealing with them for service but so far they are paying for all of the shipping and it's being shipped UPS 2nd day air so that's a plus for them!
Well I have done everything stated in this thread and I cannot get my phone to boot past the flashing Samsung screen with the blue led on....? I even did the process twice just to make sure and it won't boot to the os... I am lost here!
UPDATE:I forced the phone into recovery and cleared cach and reformatted phone and I'm all good now... Thanks guys!!

I read triangle away doesn't work for the t999, does it? please tell me it does haha. I downloaded the original software from samsung updates and I'm about to try this but after I Odin the factory software does it automatically flash the original recovery on it as well or do I need to flash the stock recovery as well? also should this be done before or after the triangle away as this may trip the counter again!? thanks for your help!!
It works. Just flash stock image thru Odin and it will give you stock recovery, rom, modem. No need for triangle away after that.

If you don't mind to wipe EVERYTHING, you can use Kies to install the stock ROM.
Turn the phone off, and enter Odin mode (downloading...) by pressing and holding both volume down and home while powering the phone on, then plug the phone in and run Kies and do reset and update.
so im trying to reset my counter back to zero and I tried with stock rom and stock recovery and used triangle away it still didnt work. can somebody please post the full instructions they took to get it back to stock with a reseted counter thank you

Make sure you're using stock kernel as well as stock recovery when you're using triangle away.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
That reminds me. Its time to make a completely stock backup before I go flash crazy again. That total stock backup can save alot of time:thumbup: cheers gentlemen:beer:

If the counter continues to reset to 1 something is not 100 stock. I would recommend flashing a stock Odin package, root it, run triangleaway and see if that worked.

I had this problem with my s3. What I eventually did was triangle restore. Odin restore. Then before it rebooted for the first time, I went to recovery and wiped everything and factory reset it.
I had to battery pull before it rebooted.

You should flash it while in cwm recovery. Not stock recovery. Should work no problem then.

I did but every time i flash back to stock ROM/revorvery thru Odin it counts as one

It should only count up if you change kernel....hmmm maybe I'm wrong? I'll get back to u
Edit: yup pretty sure....just a non stock kernel will trigger a counter tick.

Do you guys know how to change the device status from Modified to Normal easily? I have the stock ROM and the stock recovery etc. But, the settings still say that the device status is modified. Would a factory reset do it? Oh, and by the way my binary count is 0 and it says Samsung Official.

Flashing the Stock firmware in Odin should do it.

Connect the phone to KIES and have it reset to factory defaults? Download the MK2 .tar and flash with ODIN?
Those are two ways to get everything back to factory fresh with the stock kernel.
