Kies Updated the Phone-ATT DownGraded the Phone - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

I restored the phone to the factory settings using Kies and it downloaded the stock image with the new firmware.
After the kies update Service version : Android Version : 4.1.2 / Baseband Version : I317UCAMA4 and the phone booted up and everything was good. I then got a popup for AT&T to update and that update downgraded to I317UCAMC3 build JZ054K.I317UCAMC3. And to make my question the ATT update it says from Kes,Your devices current firmware version is not supported update firmware via Kies.
Current Firmware version: PDA:MC3/Phone:MC3/CSC:MC3 (ATT)
Kernel Version:3.0.31-578342 se [email protected] #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Apr 10 17:14:59 KST 2013
Why would it downgrade the firmware?

UCAMC3 is a newer firmware, not an older one

Thanks for the smackdown but why the Kies Error?

The kernel man, the kernel. You need to be completely stock for OTA...

this is correct.. now you can go back to stock kernel and wait for the ota or use the toolkit to flash the google factory image
So, I need to restore the stock kernel first and wait for the OTA update, after the version update(like the latest 4.2 ) and flash to franco kernel again?

How do I safely update my Note 2 firmware??

Hi all,
I bought my Note 2 from overseas. When I go about phone and Software Update, it tells me I have the latest version installed already. However, these are the specs:
The model number is GT-N7100,
Android version 4.1.2,
Baseband version N7100XXDLK7,
Kernel version 3.0.31-1071214 [email protected] #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Mar 27 10:33:53 KST 2013
Build number JZ054K.N7100XXDMC3
I'm just wondering where I can go to download a firmware update for my Note 2 so that I can preserve all the information on my phone.
Cheers,
Lycan

[Q] Baseband

Question about Basebands. Does the baseband version number ever change? Example my SGH-T999 Samsung S3; Baseband Version: T999UVUENC2. Will that always remain the same or will or can that change by firmware updates?
SamMobile shows the following Firmwares for my phone. theoretically should any of these firmwares work on my phone???
FIRMWARES FOR USA (T-MOBILE) - TMB
Date PDA CSC MODEM Version
2014 March T999UVUENC2 T999TMBENC2 T999UVUENC2 4.3
2013 Nov T999UVUEMJC T999TMBEMJC T999UVUEMJC 4.3
2013 April T999UVDMD5 T999TMBDMD5 T999UVDMD5
2013 January T999UVDLJC T999TMBDLJC T999UVDLJC 4.1.1
2012 October T999UVDLJA T999TMBDLJA T999UVDLJA 4.1.1
2012 October T999UVALJ4 T999TMBALJ4 T999UVLJ4 4.0.4
2012 August T999UVALH2 T999TMBALH2 T999UVLH2
2012 May T999UVALEM T999TMBALEM T999UVLEM
It changes with every firmware update.. If you have the full 4.3 NC2 update then you can only flash NC2 firmware, you cannot downgrade once on 4.3
Thanks

Stock ROM For SM-T315

Hi,
its been ages since ive been here, and boy has it changed!
I am currently looking for the stock firmware for a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3
Model: SM-T315
Android Version: 4.4.2
Baseband: T315XXUBNE5
Kernel Version: 3.0.31-2117999 [email protected] #1 Thu Jul 3 15:14:39 KST 2014
Build Number: KOT49H.T315XXUBNG2
This is a company device that someone has managed to remove the MDM from - but it hasnt totally removed, and the MDM is preventing a factory reset via fastboot or the normal UI, so i figure flashing the stock firmware via odin may fix the issue!

No IMEI and no baseband - Possible to get the phone working again?

A friend of mine asked me if I could help her to get her old GT-N7105 working again. She said she had some person trying to do something to it (I think that person tried to unlock it, but I am not sure) but something went fubar and the phone didn't recognise the SIM-cards anymore. I said I could take a look at it, however rooting with Androids is a new territory for me.
I first of all tried with my own SIM-card, nothing happened. Then I got a brand new SIM card and tried with that, nothing happens there either.
I downloaded Samsung Kies but the phone don't want to show up there (I have the USB-drivers installed) but it does show up on my PC. I have tried different USB-ports to see if Samsung Kies will work, but no. If I run Samsung Smart Switch the phone shows up in that program, but I can't do anything with it (not even the "Emergency firware restore").
If I check the info on the phone I can see that the IMEI and baseband says "Unknown" and I have these latest days searched around here on XDA and other places on what to do but none of the threads I've found has worked for me. I tried a factory reset in the beginning, that didn't do a thing so I downloaded Odin and flashed in the latest firmware I could find from Sammobile but that didn't help either.
Is it possible to get this phone working again, and if so how? I downloaded a Samsung Phone Info app and got some information from it, but if there's more information needed then say so and I'll do my best to find it.
Thanks in advance for all your help.

The latest released FW is from Hong Kong, it was released in 2017-03-06 but the latest from where I live (Sweden) is from 2015-03-17. They both have the same version number, does it matter if I take the one from Hong Kong or should I use the one for the "Nordic countries"?

Use Updato.com for stock firmware. These are the latest firmware for Sweden released April 2017: https://updato.com/firmware-archive...=15&r=COV,TLA,HTS&order=date&dir=desc&exact=1. Flash the carrier version with Odin and see if that helps.
I would try the Nordic firmware.

I flashed the Nordic firmware from Sammobile, didn't help.
Gonna give h_maharaj's tips a go. I'll let you all know how it works out.
I talked to my friend (who owns the phone) and she said she had Three (3, HTS) as carrier when she had it working. So I took the latest Three (3, HTS) firmware I could find from Updato wich was the N7105XXSFQA5 (released April 24, 2017) and I flashed the phone with Odin3 v.3.04, it still says "Unknown" on both "Baseband" and "IMEI".
