Get the stock rooted one to flash in Odin from the rooting no tripping flash counter thread in development.
I used to have the stock .tar but can't seem to find it now.
Even if you root you can easily flash back to stock

Hey guys/ gals,
Im new at posting here but not new at lurking around on the forums...
anyways like the title says, i unrooted with SuperSU before i used triangle away. so now i cannot flash the stock rom.
i am following "Towle's" guide on ((How-To Completely Unroot Your Galaxy SIII |Zero Flash Counter|"Normal" Status)) now. but before that i got carried away.
my question is how can i re-root or take away the triangle in order to go back to stock?
Thanks in advance
Odin to the latest firmware, which you can find in this forum or at sammobile. Then root your phone like you did b4. By this time you can use triangle away and odin back to the latest firmware without triggering any flash counter.

i thought i read somewhere that you cannot use odin when you have a triangle?
EDIT: thanks for your quick replies!
No. You can use odin.
I'd suggest Odin flash the root66 firmware, then use triangle away, then odin the stock firmware. Thats it!
Everything you need is in my sig. (Except triangle away.

so i have UVALEM and i noticed that when i click on the T999_UVALEM it sends me to a link called minus(dot) com???
also does it matter if i download this:
"((Old Image
Note: This is based off of the stock image TMO T999UVALH2 (August 4.0.4 ICS)
Perm Mirror: Download - root66_TMO_T999UVALH2.7z))"
if i am a UVALEM since i noticed its from UVALH2?
Ill check the link in a few. Just got home. But any of the official firmware should be fine to use (assuming you're doing this for warranty)
Not sure what ypu were asking about UVALEM and UVALH2.
LEM was the original firmware when first released.
LH2 was the last official ICS release.
Either one should be ok to use.

i thought we were supposed to be consistent with the Baseband version. since mine says T999UVLEM i thought i was only supposed to DL files that said UVALEM..lol ok, im probably making this harder on myself than it really is. im getting it now. but im still not able to download the Firmware. keeps directing me elsewhere.
EDIT: i see what you mean now. i have right now 4.0.4 ICS,
so i went ahead and started to download the latest route66 for JB 4.1.2....instead of the 4.0.4... (i thought i was supposed to stay with 4.0.4 lol)
so does the baseband change according to the firmware?
also the Route66 4.0.4 ICS is the one that the link is broken.

Ok, I see what you meant now. I think youve got yourself on the right track now though. The firmware includes everything you need. It will update your system, modem, recovery, kernel as well as several other partitions (you dont need to ever worry about them though)
So Yes, if you flash the MD5 firmware, you will end up with the latest of everything. Your baseband will change to MD5 along with everything else.
The Root66 firmware isn't mine. MrRobinson has a thread dedicated to it and I only direct link to his files just to make them easy to find. I think he took down some of the early ones, or minus.com may have terminated his account. Ill mention it to him, but I wouldnt worry about it and just flash one of the others he has available.
The baseband comes with the firmware, so it does not matter which firmware you odin

thank you kenny sorry about that :/
I have seen many posts on this issue but I still didn't get a clear answer. Since many had the same issue thought this mat deserve a thread. I am a new bee hence the questions.
We know that the free unlock does not work with 4.1.2.
We also know from several threads that flashing older modem solves the problem
atti317ucalj2modemfixed from previous threads (several thanks to other users who provided this information)
I am having some difficulties in updating the modem
I provided modem.bin file in Odin & used Phone button and Auto reboot. Odin fails to upload the modem. Am I doing something wrong?
Can I directly upload modem.bin or do I need to convert it into something else (tar)?
Am I getting the correct modem (baseband) files?
What is the best way to flash or install the modem/baseband without rooting the device. I don't have an option of rooting as I need to connect my phone through Good (does not work on a rooted device)
Any help will be appreciated.
You need to flash the entire 4.1.1 ROM. Not just the modem. Once you unlock by using the instructions in one of the existing threads you can simply hit the update button and go back to 4.1.2

Based on what I have read from the forums, people still can't access certain options in the modem after flashing the entire rom. Have you tired it? Which rom have did you use? Samsung-Updates.com-SGH-I317_ATT_1_20121005095854_bpaaavv07o.zip from hot files?

Yes I have done it. The reason people don't see all of the options is besauce they aren't flashing the full stock 4.1.1 ROM. I get mine from www.sammobile.com

Well that's the easiest way to flash anything on the phone!! Is using TWRP recovery.
You can try this then, when your done you can UN root it thru the superuser app.
But start here:

I'm wondering why I can't find a sticky on how to unroot? I would think lots of us restore to factory again, unroot and start over, I'm surprised there's no guide stickied.
That being said - does anyone have a link or guide to returning to stock - or better yet returning to stock/rooted?
My phone really need a reformat...
Thanks!
There is a sticky in the general thread with exactly what you are looking for. Has root roms and other links in it.

Gpogle: no tripping flash counter galaxy s3 at&t. Flash that, then use triangle away and then flash stock firmware in Odin that you find on sammobile.com
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
Hey guys I got the s3 today and I need some help to root it. Is there a way that you can just flash the cwm zip file In stock recovery and root it?
Or is there a community custom kernel out there that u can just flash and it installs busybox and SU?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda app-developers app
Run Root66 through Odin and it will Root stock for you.
Since you just got the phone today, I suggest you read around a bit before opening threads like this. There are tons of guides and the like out there, all for the taking and have been here for some time now. Check the Stickies and use Search in the Q&A section.
Good luck and welcome to the T999.

I saw that the ND8 modem was removed from here and the thread for it closed. I am in a very urgent situation where I was going back and forth from newly flashed ND8 stock tar to backed up CM11. I was, maybe, stupid enough to reflash CWM recovery instead of going with the Philz recovery and now my baseband is 'Unknown'.
Please, please, please, anyone that still has the ND8 modem can send me a link via PM, so that we do not go contravening forum rules by posting it publicly, and I will be eternally grateful. Without this, my phone is useless until I can get to the office on Tuesday(I work shifts) and use the stock tar on my laptop in the office. My internet at home is capped and downloading nearly 1GB will burn it drastically.
Thanks in advance to any helper(s).

I know that is the best solution, but like I said earlier, the stock tar I downloaded is on my laptop in the office. I'm at home till Tuesday. Going without service till Tuesday is just unimaginable for me. The 'banned' ND8 modem will fix this just fine for me, since I am already on ND8.
FIXED!!!
I had to download the stock tar and odined again. All working now. Word of caution to all: Do not go back and forth between stock ND8 and AOSP like I did. MODs, you can close this thread please.
