Hi All,
I currently have my phone running Slimbean build 4.1 with CWM installed for my recovery. I want to restore my phone back to stock to unlock it, and give Touchwiz a try again. Whats the best way to do this? I remember reading there was some sort of unlock method using from a stock os, can I still do this?
Thanks in advance.
Download odin for your pc and the stock firmware for your carrier. Use odin to flash the firmware. Both of these can be found in the Android development section.

Yep. Sure is as that is the stock 4.1.1
Are you looking to stay on stock and keep root ? IF so just flash the stock rooted .tar in odin.

Actually, I plan on going stock, no root. I don't use root functions that much. Problem is (for me anyways) I can't get a single hotfile link for the firmware to download right now, keeps getting Network Timeout.

Yeah, both on sammoblie (as well as the fourm's here) link to hotfile.
Well, got the phone back to stock, unlock not so much. Oh well, it was worth a try. Touchwiz is kind of nice, glad I went back.
Thanks for the help, I ended up having to use my cell connection to download the file, something OS related on my PC. oh well.

You won't unlock it for free (perma unlock anyway). You'll either have to get the code from your carrier or buy it online.

It might. I never tried it. Although, trying to get it from your carrier is the easiest way. Chat with the support and ask them (can make up some excuses). Could take a few tries.

I may have lied about the girls, but here is my problem. I was on CM 10.1 Nightly 4/17 or something. I tried flashed Ktoonssez kernal....and it bricked my phone. I managed to get download mode but I am not sure what to do. Finals are coming up, and I have some lecture recording so if there is anyway to get everything back. If not I still want to stay on CM 10.1 I cannot enter recovery but before I flashed I made a nandoid back up in TWRP. IF anyone can help me ASAP I would really appreciate it!!!!
Came for the girls, disappointed.
Flash a stock ROM via odin, factory reset from recovery, flash TWRP, restore backup.
PS it's kernEl

Okay I think I scerwed it up even more.
I did the odin think, but now it doesn't even boot. It doesn't charge either, all it does is vibate whenever I try to boot it up. I cant get into Recoevery or Download. I think I hard bricked it, Will I need a Jig?

Yes it did, and then I followed up with CF root. which I think is what messed up because it didnt fail or pass. It just said complete. Will a Jig fix it? It stills vibrates but thats about it.

First of all , are you sure your device is i9300 and you flashed the right file for your device ? or you rooted using CF-Auto Root (Not CF-Root, i heard it doesnt have the Sudden Death fix)

How? I've installed 4.1.2 stock. I go back into download, Odin then cf autoroot plug in my phone. Odin sees it fine. Hit start, tries to install, hangs then it says failed.
I don't know any other way to do it.

Ok, I was running deTmobilized 1.5, I flashed enewmans firmware update zip (no wipe) rebooted. Then I booted back into recovery, did a full wipe, flashed loserskater's rooted rom, and now I'm running rooted ota 4.1.2 with cwm touch recovery still intact... took all of 10 minutes maybe, no pc, no odin, all from my phone...

Just to check, in Odin you see something like "<ID:0/005> Added!!" right?
Are you using the stock USB cable?
if both are yes....no idea, sorry.

Yes both are yes. Ill just wait.
It sounds like you have an Odin problem, not a CF Autoroot problem.

It certainly is possible however I used 4 differnt versions of Odin. I used Odin fine to return to 4.1.1 stock the upgraded so I don't think Odin is the issue.

Right in the development thread for the att i747
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
looking to root, install twrp, and flash cleanrom.
i saw a root method that says to use a stock recovery, and i also saw the i shouldn't wipe the cache using twrp... can anyone give me a proper procedure to get to where i need? i have two little kids that are keeping me from doing the proper research myself, otherwise i would.
i am on mk1 firmware btw...
thanks!
wow, no one?
I haven't done this yet as I am kinda hoping there'll be a non-warranty killing approach available soon. I am in much the same boat as you, kids and all, too.
But I think the way to do it is:
1. Root the device with cf auto root: http://honai-android.blogspot.com.au/2013/12/how-to-root-galaxy-note-101-2014.html / http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2490805
2. Install TWRP via Odin
3. Install cleanROM via TWRP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2577389
I hope this at least gets you started. Let us know how you go as I will probably be following in your footsteps as soon as I can't stand this unrooted tablet any more... which will probably be very darn soon, warranty killing or not.
Or maybe someone else will chime in with better instructions.
Good luck!
+1 I'm about to send my warranty to hell. Stock ROM is ridiculously over bloated. The only thing i need is a working ROM with my "exotic" p605m variation.
I really need working radio / LTE.

Yeah, I have the SM-P600, which is wifi only. We have a confirmed root, custom recovery, and CleanROM, but the Knox counter gets tripped, and for now there is no way around it.

TWRP is custom recovery so yes you have to flash it using Odin.
read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2515656
After that you can download .zip file to storage and then install it using TWRP recovery.

It would have to be an Odin flashable file as no custom recovery for att, and the locked bootloader would reject the tar file.
