[Q] Now stuck PLS HELP - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

This is my very first post i have found many solution on this forum which helped me & my friends But need help with this 1
Ok here goes my Story
I have recently brought s3(used) it was on 4.3 & rooted with philz touch 6 didn't check the firmware details etc
As i was playing with philz touch 6 & did something which i remember was to clean rom or some thing now the phone boots & shows Samsung Galaxy SIII & stops there
I think its on I747UCUEMJ2 Modified ROM ยป Root, KNOX Disabled, SE-Linux Disabled not sure
Is there a way to get it back ..?

If you are able to access download mode, you could easily flash a custom ROM.

S i can access download mode
Can i go back to stock or only custom firmware from now on..?

If I were you, I would go to a custom firmware. That is if you have a custom recovery like ClockWorkmod or TWRP. But you can flash stock, at least to my understanding. But I'd look into that.
(Your bootloader will need to be unlocked too)

I am on Clockworkmod v6.0.3.1 the thing is i don't want a custom firmware 2 many problems
I would like to load stock buy have read most of them get their phones bricked

If you were on the 4.3 official stock ROM that was pushed out, you have a possibility of bricking your device downgrading to lets say the 4.1.2 stock ROM.
A custom ROM isn't bad though. If you do like Touchwiz based ROMs you may be able to find one in the development section.

What information are you wanting to backup?
You'll have to find your ROM of choice. If you want a reliable ROM then I'd recommend something that is stable, which should always be said in the thread,

Notes,contacts ,sms etc

Contacts could be backed up if you sync with your gmail account. SMS can be done by an application on the market. Notes that are synced on Evernote or Keep should just be there.

[Q] Remove Cyanogenmod Problem

Hi,
I had stock 4.3 firmware on my att i747 galaxy s3, then I decided to flash cyanogenmod. everything went well but i dont really like it.
Now I want to go back to stock. I tried flashing the stock rom with odin but it fails and it says this on the phone:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SGH-I747
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (2 counts)
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
Warranty Bit: 1
BOOTLOADER RP SWREV: 2
SW REV CHECK FAIL : Fused 2 > Binary 0
The android version it shows is 4.3.1 and im able to use it normally with the cyanogenmod.
What can I do to flash a stock rom back?
EDIT: used triangle away and the custom binary download says "no" now and the current binary says "samsung official" but still get the same problem.
Thank You

You need to flash a stock ROM that has no boot loader attached to it. I just reverted my S3 back to stock from CM11 so that I could sell it. Flash a Rom.zip through recovery and it should work fine. I see you are ATT so I suggest this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2540998. You have the choice of Stock Rooted without bootloader which is what you will be looking for. This thread also has everything you may need. Do not attempt to use Odin to flash roms with older bootloaders or you will find major issues.
You will almost definitely need to wipe everything so back everything up and be sure to take a Nandroid.

In that thread you have 2 good options that I can see. Scroll down and you will find one ROM by upndwn4par/full and another debloated directly under it. Which you chose depends on if you want Samsung/ Google software on it. The upndwn4par file will have you closer to stock than the other. Please be sure to read a couple pages, even if you don't get any immediate knowledge from it you will become way more familiar with these processes. It's worth the time, and safer for your phone.

Thanks once again, i will download the debloated one. But I have a question, that won't be a stock rom right? If the bootloader is the problem is there a stock d2att 4.3 rom i can flash?
That is a stock ROM. It is just pre rooted with knox removed. It is a modified version of the Stock OTA with the problematic parts removed..

You need a custom recovery to flash this. CWM or TWRP. I'm not too sure how you got to CM without one but be sure you have one and then flash the Rom from above. You can install CWM with the app 'Rom Manager'.

I installed CWM but now that i used cyanogen for a while im starting to like it. The only thing that I dont like is the music player. I downloaded google play but it is even worst, my playlists are not even in order. Is there any way of flashing the stock samsung music player on cyanogenmod or is it integrated with the touchwiz?
Thanks for all the help you gave me so far.
EDIT: I found this thread about ported s4 apps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2267029, can i just flash it with CWM using cyanogenmod?
You can not flash that S4 port. It says it is specifically for the Galaxy advance. Also you are correct that the Samsung player requires Touchwiz. Try Power Amp, it has pretty good reviews and features. A 3rd party player is probably your best bet. You can cherry pick for features

I tried a lot of players and didn't like any. Flashed the ROM you indicated using CWM and it worked. Did it all for the player Everything is working fine now and I really like how it doesn't have all the bloatware from att.

here is a video i used from rootjunky to root my tablet with twrp
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDShwBHRjUE
hope it helped
@first there is no cm for this tab. All custom roms based on stock rom or 4.2.2 port from sm-t110
There is no need to unlock bootloader like HTC. No seperate flash of Boot.img...
Install cwm or twrp recovery with Odin. Check threads for Odin install instructions. Its easy going

Try looking at the specs of each ROM and compare it with yours. I am currently running S.E.A.L ROM
with the Black hawk kernel I am finding it faster than the Stock ROM and also way less bloatware.
Try this or the RocketTab Rom and Blackhawk. These tend to work the best for most SM-T210 and R.

[Q] Help with Rooting and Flashing ROM (newbie)

I have Samsung Galaxy Note 2 running Android 4.3 stock. It have'nt been rooted or modified in anyway. Just like a fresh out of shop Note 2,
only it is over a year old, so the warranty is over. I'm very interested with the DN3 v5 ROM. Is there any specific guide (preferably step-by-step guide) on how to get from here (fresh phone) to the finished phone (completed with working DN3 ROM).
I understand that it needed to be rooted, have specific bootloader and the latest recovery mode. (detailed guide to install them would be very helpfull). I've done flashing custom ROM on my Sony Xperia Miro long ago, but on this Samsung it seems much more harder.
So, I just need a non-confusing guide to do it, as I don't have much experience in this thing.
I've found many guide on this, but most of them not exactly the same as my specs. Just worried that the worst would happen.
And lastly, I have Knox in my phone but I never installed it. Is it gonna make any different or what?
If there is any existing guide on it, I would appreciate the link. Thanks in advanced.
Model : GT-N7100
Android version : 4.3
Baseband version : N7100XXUEMK1
Build number : JSS15J.N7100XXUEML3
Sprint Note II L900 CUSTOM ROM ??
Rooted.
Cwm 6+.
Flash Custom ROMs + Gapps Successfully.
My ISSUE (after flashing ROM etc.) Reboots Fine into ROM.
however, if I turn off the device..I have to Reboot into recovery and flash again...
WHY are ROMs not "Sticking" and Rebooting if device is shut down or Dies (Battery)?
???ANY HELP ?? I sure its simple but I'm discombobulated on this issue.

And what on earth has that got to do with the OP's thread?
Stop hijacking peoples topics.
Well, I manage to root using dr.ketan multitool. But then problem arise when i tried to install mj5 bootloader. In Odin it says fail and in my phone it says unsupported version. Now my phone stucked with this message, "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."...What do I do? Help please...
Edit :
I tried to flashed Philz recovery and it went back to life! Now, I need a way to install bootloader for DN3 v5, any version would be fine I guess. Help please...
Edit :
Finally finished flashing DN3. Just flash twrp using mobileodin and use current bootloader then flash DN3.

10.1 Note (2014 Edition - SM-P600) Continuously Reboots - Please HELP

Hello Everyone!
I'm stuck!!! If anyone can help, it is so appreciated!
I attempted to root my subject named device using ODIN following these directions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10-2014/development/root-cf-auto-root-t2905495
Everything seems to go as planned until restart.. the tablet continuously reboots, over and over, but fails to load.
I have no clue what to do from here, so this is my only option... ask those who have much more knowledge than me!
Thanks in advance. I really appreciate your assistance.
That's called a bootloop. Something went wrong with flashing. What is a subject named device? That autoroot method only works for smp600 that is already running stock 5.1 or 4.4.2 . Boot into downloadmode using the appropriate buttons, then Download stock firmarwe from sammobile.Com and flash via Odin to get back a working device.
Which build are you on? If it is 5.1.1, that method will result in a bootloop if you try to root.
Use this instead

The tablet is a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Model SM-P600.
Not sure about the build.... but I will most definitely checkout the link you provided - thanks!
Question, can I flash a different rom rather than stock?
Also, I was just able to flash TWRP via ODIN and was able to get TWRP to load on the device. I'm hoping to flash a custom rom from the external SD via TWRP. I don't care which one at this point.. just need to get the tablet functional again and get a backup saved lol.

Here is "how to" instruction by me - post #225 for upgrade to the latest 5.1.1 and root your device. Once done and you want custom rom, just boot into twrp and flash any custom rom that you like. Let me know if you have issue.
