[Q] Stock Firmware needed

I need a link to download the stock firmware for my sph-d710. I accidentally tried installing the wrong one and can't get my phone to work now. Only the logo comes up or I can go into odin mode. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

[Q] sprint note 2 odin fail s.boot bricked

so I rooted my galaxy note 2 from Sprint with Odin and it said that it was rooted but the superuser would never work so I did a factory reset to make sure that wasn't the problem and it just got stuck on boot loader on the Samsung icon and it never turns on I tried installing the stock firmware for the Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 2 with Odin and every time I got to S.boot it says fail my phone has been stuck like this for about a week now and I have not found anything to fix it I found a thread saying to install an alternate stock firmware without the s.boot file but it was only for Verizon phones I have not found one for the Sprint any help would be highly appreciated

What file were you using?
Without more info I would suggest using odin and flashing a recovery then flashing mc2 stock with counter reset. Dont remember exactly who made it at this moment but scan through development section and you will find it.

It's failing at sboot because you're trying to downgrade on a secured bootloader. You can't downgrade. You can only use the latest stock firmware.
This is the stock 4.3 image for use in Odin http://www.mediafire.com/download/7viivd985s7cp8l/L900VPUBMK4_L900SPTBMK4_HOME.tar.zip
To get into download mode use vol down, home, power. You'll need Odin 3.07 or 3.09. Put this in the PDA or AP tab. DO NOT MESS WITH ANYTHING ELSE IN ODIN.

I know exactly what you need to do, go download this and flash with odin, then flash a custom recovery and flash MC back to stock unrooted

Sending 8$ on pp for de-brick on Teamviewer

Title says all, i have an att SGH-I747 and i tried to install a custom rom without the phone being rooted (didnt know that was a requirement) and the original stock was 4.3 and i was trying to get it to 4.1 . after doing extensive research ive tried countless different files and such to restock the phone but nothing has helped because on odin, when i hit start, it goes unsuccessful to do auth being bad or something like that. so if someone wants to help a fellow brother out please dont hesitate. add me on skype godlypk101

Can you get into download mode or recovery?
FYI: if you were on stock 4.3 bootloader, trying to get back to stock 4.1.1 can brick your phone.

yes i can

Here's what I would do to at least get a working ROM on the phone:
1) copy the latest version of d2lte cm11 to your external SD card: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=d2lte;
2) flash the latest tar.md5 version of Philz Touch from here: https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_...Edition/d2lte/ in the PDA box of Odin;
3) reboot to recovery and flash CM11.

ok, now what if i dont have an ext sd card :S

You had the stock 4.3 ROM on your phone before attempting to downgrade to 4.1.1, correct?
If that's the case, this may help: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2722660

yes, will try that method to see if it fixes anything.

in that pack theres 5 files and they start with, AP, BL, CP, CSC, D2 (Pit) where i put these on odin?

UPDATE: Put all the files in the correct spot, started the fix in odin and lets hope it works

ok so now that the phone is working, what are the steps im supposed to take in order to unlock this bad boy? should i refer to a method on xda on custom roms or should i go buy a code from a third party website?

So your phone booted on stock 4.3?
If the phone ever had the 4.3 bootloader, you cannot unlock the phone for free. You will have to purchase an unlock code.

I haven't tried but I think of your rooted then use cm boot loader then mount all partition and wipe then use cm to load new or old system. Think of it like a pc format then install. Simple

[Q] Trying to Un-root from CM 12.1.. Failing ):

I was on CM 12.1 and I want to go back to completely stock Note 4, as if I purchased my device from the Sprint Store!
I went to download Odin and the stock firmware of Android 5.0.1 for my device, I followed instructions online, and when I press start in Odin, after about 3 seconds it Fails.
Can I not go back to stock Touchwiz 5.0.1 firmware after being on CM 12.1? I do not have a nandroid backup, and even when I try and access Recovery, it is no longer custom recovery, it is a very simple looking recovery screen, with no option to restore a backup.
What can I do! ): I'm extremely stressed and worried I'm not quite sure what to do.
My phone does go into Download mode just fine and show up in Odin.
Also, my phone actually boots up fine, and works fine, but there is no custom recovery, and Odin is failing when trying to flash the stock firmwares

Since you're familiar with CM and recent OE1 writes both on TW and CM, can you tell the OP if reactivation lock exists on CM, please? How to disable, if enabled?
He's trying to flash OF5 in Odin but it quickly fails or he's downloading the correct OF5 tar now. Add any suggestions you think he might need when coming from CM12 to stock tar these days.
I suspect the recovery is now stock due to partial flash (if possible), reactivation lock or attempt to root in Odin again.
Thanks in advance.

Note 3 on 5.0 trying to go back to stock ROM

Hello everyone,
I have a TMO Note 3 running Lollipop at this moment, the phone is rooted, but I tried flashing a new ROM and it soft bricked on me. ODIN stopped at the very beginning of flashing and just bricked the phone. Also TWRP was not working either and still not, but I was able to bring the phone back from the semi-dead state it was in. I want to flash it again but now I don't know if I did something wrong (most likely) and I just need some feedback on what to do. I wanna go to a stock rom so i can upgrade to the actual Lollipop Rom from T-mobile but I was also wondering if I can just flash a stock 5.0 rom that runs better than the one I have. Additionally, I just cant get TWRP to stick at all; every time I try to flash it and try to go into recovery, phone goes into boot loop. Here are some screenshots of the current "about phone" section. I am sorry if i am not asking the right questions but I gotta start somewhere. Thanks everyone in advanced!

If you can get into download mode, flash the latest stock rom from Sammobile.com.
