I did exactly as the video says (I have done it before and worked fine) and After getting root I cant install custom ROMS.
It doesnt give me any error message, it just stays on the boot screen.

You did not follow the instructions on that video very well at all.
In the video it shows the stock Samsung M919 MDL rom and you
flashed or are trying to flash the MK5 rom which is not the stock
official MDL rom for the Tmobile MDL M919 phone.
You need to go to http://SamMobile.com and download the official
stock MDL M919 firmware and Odin flash it in the PDA slot of odin.
Then you need to root the phone by odin flashing the cf-autoroot.
Once that's done you need to flash a custom recovery like TWRP
or CWM.

Here is the pre-rooted stock 4.1.2 firmware for T999: UVDMD5
Here is the official stock 4.1.2 firmware for T999 which is not rooted: UVDMD5
Both of these firmwares are Odin flash only.
Good luck!
Pre-rooted meaning before root? Or it's already been rooted?

I have a t999 that has slimkat on it. I rooted and installed slimkat awhile back. I'm wanting to go back to stock. the only stock rom i found on here so far is not a rom at all. it's an exe file that tries to install a ton of adware, malware and trojans (according to symantec).
Does anyone know where to find a stock rom? Also, I currently have the t99uvuenc2 firmware, so it needs to work with that, I guess. I don't know how to change that, but if someone can point me to the directions on how to get this thing back as close to stock as possible, that would be great.
Follow the link in the first post to sammobile.com and download the latest firmware from there. Then download Odin 3.07 or 3.09 and use the program to flash your phone back to completely stock.

Thanks, audit13. I'm back to stock with no issues at all. I'm fairly new to this, so I must have misunderstood something up at that first post. I'm all set now though.
im trying to install latest stock ROM for sgh-t999L but always ends up failing on odin. At sbl2.mbn then it says AUTH FAIL
My Note 2 is SGH-I317M (Canadian) locked into Bell Mobility. I tried the method described here but it as some people mentioned the option number 4 never show up.
- Should I downgrade the baseband firmware to 4.1.1 ? How can I do that?
- How can I backup my original baseband, so that after unlock I can put this back? (Ideally, I want the phone to be as much as close to stock as possible).
I would appreciate if someone can guide me into right direction. Thanks.
Baseband version: I317MVLUCMK5
I solved it and now have an amazing unlocked phone.
For future reference:
- Use TWRP to backup your modem
- Download ROGERS_MODEM_I317MVLALJ2.zip (Modem firmware from Android 4.1.1) from http://d-h.st/rJq
- Go to TWRP and install this zip
- Unlock
- Restore newer modem back using TWRP
For me, Odin failed!
The J2 modem is all anyone needs to flash. I also had to go through a couple different files until I found a flashable zip that worked.

So this allows us who are on android 4.3 to flash back to android 4.1.1 and unlock the phone via the hidden menu? How do you actually backup the baseband of the phone. When i last tried to flash a 4.1.1 stock firmware over my rooted note 2 running android 4.3, it said failed and wouldn't even load into recovery!
Thanks bro I was having trouble finding a correct modem to do this trick.

Will the SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 UNIFIED TOOLKIT V7.0 work on a i747 using 4.3.
Currently, there is no free unlock method for the s3 running stock 4.3.
Looking here: http://www.skipsoft.net/?page_id=213, I see no mention of 4.3 being supported by the toolkit.
CF AutoRoot
CF-Auto-Root worked on my S3 running stock 4.3. I was hating the new Knox and had to get out. I think it took 2 tries but was very painless.

I want to unlock and root my i747. My note 2 is a bell phone. My i747 is from rogers. Is there a difference in the downloads. Thanking you for the help.
You could load a rooted 4.3 rom , use mobile Odin to downgrade to 4.1.1 to see if you can use the free unlock method. Just don't try to downgrade the bootloader; otherwise, you'll have to buy an unlock code.
The link should have a download for Rogers 4.3.

Once you install a 4.3 stock bootloader, you cannot downgrade the bootloader.
When you flash the Rogers pre-rooted 4.3 rom via desktop Odin, you are replacing the existing bootloader with an identical bootloader and replacing the existing ROM with a 4.3 ROM.
When you flash the Rogers pre-rooted 4.1.1 ROM via desktop Odin, Odin tries to replace the 4.3 bootloader with a 4.1.1 bootloader which can't be done and causes a soft brick.
You can try re-installing the pre-rooted Rogers 4.3.ROM and use mobile Odin to downgrade the OS from 4.3 to 4.1.1. Mobile Odin will not touch the existing bootloder or modem.

When you install the 4.1.1 from AT&T, there is not sound or phone service because the modem is probably incompatible with the ROM.
When installing the 4.1.1 Rogers ROM via mobile Odin, go into recovery and do a factory wipe/reset. Hopefully, doing this will allow the phone to boot.

Found an original copy of rogers 4.1.1, installed worked good but no sound or cell. Installed 4.2 modem got sound and and cell back. Phone now boots up ok and says it is in 4.1.1. Unlock code still not working, 4th menu not coming up, rebooted, tried numerous things, no luck. I think the boot loader from 4.3 is somehow blocking this from working. Not sure were to go from here, any ideas.
Another user loaded a stock 4.1.1 ROM onto his phone with a 4.3 bootloader and could not get the necessary menu options to unlock which leads me to believe you need to be running a completely stock ROM, including the bootloader.
I have a Canadian Galaxy S3, on 4.1.1 DLK4 Official. I rooted it, and have TWRP.
I want to upgrade my rom to a CM12/13 but of course with root and custom recovery, OTA updates are blocked.
I need newer bootloaders and modem to run the newer android versions.
Should I install them now, while on 4.1.1, and then flash CM12, or should I sequentially update each of the AT&T firmwares until I get up to 4.4.2?
Do official roms have the bootloaders and modems in them and install them automatically?
Should I use the Kies restore method?
The Canadian and att s3 phones are not the same model number. Don't flash an att bootloader to your Canadian phone as this may brick the phone.
Flash latest stock rom from Sammobile.com, flash twrp, flash cm.

Okay, but i can use AT&T roms tho?
The i747m will work with d2can, d2lte, and d2att Roms.
Is it safe to flash straight from 4.1.1 to 4.4.2 using a sammobile rom? will i brick due to Knox bootloader and modem?
Can I flash it using TWRP?
If someone could link a tutorial that would be very helpful.
I keep reading stuff that says to flash the newer bootloader before flashing a 4.3 firmware, and some that say the opposite. Others say that people should incrementally update.
I want to go from 4.1.1 original with Root and TWRP, to CM13.
Thank you.
Yes, you can flash the latest stock 4.4.2 rom from Sammobile.com directly to your phone. No need to do anything other than backing up your data.

Now I just need to get the balls again to use odin. Flashing the custom recovery using the Universal Tool Kit that had step by step walkthrough was adrenaline rush enough LOL.
I could also use Kies, as that has 4.4.2 OB3 (telus), and also has "emergency firmware recovery" feature if a brick ever happens. Though ideally the only time boot.img gets flashed is only with Full Stock Firmware files.
I find kies to be unreliable when I have tried to restore firmware so I always stuck with Odin.
Hello people, first of all I dont know if im in the right place, Im new to this forum.
My situation is that I want to restore back to stock ROM my i747 with a custom rom running on android 4.4.4 with SlimROM, my Kernel is 3.4.104-cyanogenmod-g38a4e52
Baseband i747UCUEMJB
I passed through 4.3 stock ROM, then i flashed to Cyanogen 12 with android 5.1.1 and now Im with SlimKat with android 4.4.4. I want to go back to stock ROM, but I read about the locked bootloader on newer versions of android, I dont really know much about this thing, but I think that is if I want to go back to 4.1, im i right
The thing is, can I go back to 4.3 stock rom
Thank you.

Thank you guys for your help, so Im good as soon as I flash to 4.3 stock, what about the recovery, is that made by Odin? Or should I first flash a specific one?
About the 4.4.2, is it better than the 4.3 and would I be able to go to 4.3 in case I get the NE4?
Again thank you for your answers.
Once you upgrade to the 4.4.2 bootloader, you cannot downgrade to the 4.3 bootloader.
Stock Recovery will be installed by Odin.
