hi, im new to android but from what i read here maybe you should download the stock rom 4.1.1 that you had on this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1896696
than just flash it with odin.

Look 'N7100 all in one ' in my signature, download and flash any rom as said in op.

Thank you both for quick response....If I want to revert back to 4.1.1 then is there any extra thing i have to do?? or to download any 4.1.1 firmware and simply flash via ODIN???

Yes simply download and flash using odin
If you get bootloop then you have to wipe cache and data from recovery.

[q] unroot stock n7100

Hey guys. Need some help here. Ive googled a lot but still couldnt find a clear explanation
nor tutorial of what should I do, if I want to upgrade to comming 4.2.2 having my gtn7100
Note II rooted on stock rom.
Im a noob so be warned: in SuperSU theres an option that sais full unroot. As I understand
its not a proper unroot. True?
Triangle away, changes some counter to 0. What is that and is
this step crucial?
Could you guys make it clear for me and explain the steps of unrooting a stock ver.?
After the expected update gona root it back I guess.

Flashing stock rom with odin completely unroot.
Reset counter is related to warranty, if that doesn't matter for you then forget it.

Won't this leave SysScope screaming that your device is modified?

If counter is raised then status will remain modified.
To revert status normal you need
Reset counter
Flash stock rom
Wipe cache and data (optional if status is notmal)

How to revert to Stock Recovery from TWRP?

I am trying to unroot my phone before I send it out for repair. I am running CM10.1 with TWRP recovery. I reset the binary counter with triangle away but I can't find a link for a flashable stock recovery? If I flash the stock rom, will it replace the recovery as well or do they have to be flashed seperately. I've heard that going into a custom recovery will trigger the binary counter so there's no point of me flashing a stock rom only to trigger the binary counter again...
I have the GS3 T999v with Wind Mobile
Thanks in advance!

I'm pretty sure flashing any stock rom will not affect the recovery. You could try flashing stock firmware or the unrooted stock rom.

Flash stock firmware in Odin. Everything is in my sig.

@dannytron
I meant to say that I have the unrooted stock rom ready to roll. The issue is that I'm not sure if it will replace my recovery to stock as well, or would I have to flash the stock recovery before I flash the unrooted stock rom.
@DocHoliday77
The recovery in your sig says it's for t-mobile gs3 or does it not matter?
Thank you for the fast reply guys!

Go to the firmware thread linked in my sig. Download the correct firmware for your model/carrier.
Follow the instructions for flashing that in Odin. It will take care of everything.

Ok so I'm assuming you mean just download the official non-rooted stock rom and flash it via odin? Ok doing it now!
I'm with Wind Mobile!
Thanks
EDIT: Ok I am following this guide : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2323847 and it says 1) Reset binary counter 2) flash stock recovery 3) go into stock recovery and perform a data wipe....I cannot data wipe from custom recovery since it will reset the binary counter! This is why I need the stock recovery, do I not? Won't flashing the Offical Non-root Stock ROM on top of CM10.1 without data wiping give me problems??

Sorry, I must've misread, thought you already reset the flash counter. In that case flash the root66 firmware instead of the official stock. Once done, you csn now use triangle away to reset thr counter.
Next choose full unroot from the supersu app. Then factory reset.
Done!

Do this ^
You're supposed to flash the stock firmware (not rom) in Odin and it'll return everything back to factory. But in your case you should do what doc says and flash root66 for your device so you can then use triangle away and unroot the phone.

Thanks Doc. Well, it kinda worked.
The odd thing is that I flashed the root66 (which also restored recovery from TWRP to stock) and i wiped the data from stock. Now the device status is listed as "Normal" (So I guess my device isn't rooted) so I guess i don't need to do anything else. I'm even downloading an OTA update right, I'll let ya know if I run into any problems.
Thank you very much for your help

Actually you are probably still rooted.
