I've tried flashing with Odin the MJ5 bootloader. Also, I've tried flashing the wifi fix supplied from Dr.Ketan, again with no success. In one of those attempts flashing failed, as indicated by Odin. Now all I get is this warning: "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies & try again."
Can't do anything else, no recovery and no download mode. Help?! :/
On which rom were you, when you flashed the bootloader via odin.?

I think you should flash the oficial 4.3 bootloader again.. but i am not sure..
BTW, after you fix this, try chainfire auto-root and not the bootloader patch to root the device

I flashed again the 4.3 andriod rom from India. It started and i think i cannot downgrade back now.
i will stick with 4.3. but i want to root it.
I try to go to download mode, but it does not come instead, it andriod system recovery mode comes every time instead.
it shows option like
-reboot
-apply update from ADB
-apply update from external card
how to i get into download mode
The button combo for download mode is volume_down+power_key+home_key

I have a SGH-I747, and on the last weeks I've updated it to 4.3 Jelly bean leaked version, which is UCUEMJ2, but now want to get the official 4.3 update (UCUEMJB). How can I make this? Is there any solution? Everytime I try to flash anything, it seems to get it done, but then I reboot my phone and there it is, the leaked and buggy 4.3 update still there. Can someone help me?

Pretty sure you should be able odin back to 4.1.x from the leak and then update ota. Downgrading from leak is safe afaik but don't downgrade from official 4.3 = brick. Sounds like you better be sure if you want to go to official. Please someone else confirm.

Yes you can downgrade to 4.1.1 via kies or Odin if you on MJ2 and take update to MJB over the air. But there is no comback to privies version of if you on last OTA 4.3 MJB...

Like others have said, you can odin back to 4.1.1 stock and start the OTA update process (you will need to update to 4.1.2 then do the 4.3 update). HOWEVER, please keep in mind that once you are on 4.3 stock you are stuck there. You cannot downgrade or you will brick your phone. Rooting the 4.3 stock rom is even a hit and miss at this point so do not even count on having root or a custom recovery. You have been informed and to update is at your own risk if is going to be an issue for you. I suggest give the developers time to figure things out first unless you just really want stock unrooted SIII experience.
Hmm..

So basically I should go to Kies, use the "don'tknowthename" method to get back to 4.1.1, then manually install the 4.1.2 OTA, and then again manually install the 4.3 OTA? (I have an AT&T phone but I live in Mexico). Woooooah, seems like a busy evening. Great...

Im pretty sure Kies will only let you install the latest official firmware, im not positive on this however as i avoid it like the plauge. Your best best is to use Odin to flash back to stock, and then grab the OTA (if thats what you have your heart set on).

Latest official firmware on kies is 4.1.1. So he can do this by kies if he was and he is sure he was on 4.2.1 or MJ6 latest and did not take OTA.

Better is to get CM10.2 if you can
Well, I just got my UCUEMJB 4.3 update ready to work, and it is pretty stable. Thanks to everyone who helped me get this problem solved. The guy who was having problems as me:
It is SAFE to downgrade to 4.1.1 ONLY and notice, ONLY if you are on the UCUEMJ2 leaked update; you should be able to odin the 4.1.1 ROM, then get the 4.1.2 OTA update, and then again the 4.3 OTA update.

You just have to download the 4.1.2 OTA Update .zip file, and then manually flash it. Then, you should get the 4.3 OTA

Hey guys so i have heard that if i install the old firmware for my s4 from sammobile using Odin one from early 2013 that it will give me access to service menu so that i can unlock my phone. So my question is that is it 100% safe to Odin flash the older 4.2.2 rom when i am on 4.3? Can i flash it unlock my phone then upgrade my phone to a custom rom again? Thank you i also am running a custom rom and have philz recovery installed.

If you are on 4.2.2 bootloader then yes, if on 4.3 bootloader then no, but you can try downgrading modems instead.. Also is the ROM you are on aosp/cm or tw based?

If you update to 4.3 by one of the following methods you're out of luck:
-OTA update
-Kies update
-Odin flash the full 4.3 firmware.
Like mentioned above, if you only flashed a 4.3 ROM but keep your MDL(4.2.2) bootloader you can go back.
Faaaaaaaaaaakkkkkkkkk i did Odin flash the full 4.3 Damnit stupid Samsung why the hell would they block downgrading? Okay so if i did try to Odin flash the older firmware what would happen? I doubt it'll hard brick my phone right i could prob try it if it doesn't work then I'll just Odin flash 4.3

It's the Stock ND8 tar file which gives you 4.4.2.
