Hi Everyone,
This is a noob question. I rooted my phone and deleted a few apps. Now i want to get the latest update of Tmobile.com. What's the best way to get those updates? Do i go back to stock rom or just update my phone via KIES?
Thank for your help.

legit way is via KIES
Dear devs..
I tried all sorts to get this working but after returning to stock after unrooting and repairing the N7100 via kies back to stock 4.1.2 india rom..
Now it does not check for update as it says the above msg mentioned in the subject. I cannot check for update OTA. It just goes on and on.. no result..
Dr. Ketan mentioned the reason behind it but still no solution. He is definitely working on it but still no results.
I can connect to kies and sync or backup but cannot update firmware.
Does anyone has the same problem and have found any solution for the same.
Pls reply. Thanks in advance.

Hey guys i am trying to use odin to downgrade from android 4.3 to Android 4.1.1 but for some reason it keeps on failing in odin. And now i am stuck in "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again". How do i know if i have the correct stock file? I downloaded 4.1.1 from here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1...e=TLS#firmware.. why is it keep on failing? i have checked and kies is off and i am using the original samsung cable odin recognizes the phone but it "fails"

Do you have an AT&T s3? If you do, you cannot downgrade the 4.3 bootlaoder using desktop Odin and there is no stock AT&T 4.3 ROM.

Be thankful Odin failed because if it hadn't you probably would have had a bricked phone on your hands now. Like the senior member already advised, you can't downgrade the bootloader on the 4.3 to an older system. Desktop Odin tries to flash most partitions which is why it failed. If I may ask, why are you trying to downgrade to 4.1.1? If it's to free unlock the phone, you may be advised that there haven't been conclusive results on the viability of this process. It's possible to downgrade the system itself without downgrading the bootloader by flashing with other methods apart from Odin. I'm not aware, however, that anyone's been able to unlock even after this.
It's unlikely you'd be able to use Kies to recover from the phone's current situation as Kies will likely try to update to 4.1.1. If it isn't booting or working normally, you may try doing a hard wipe from recovery. If your phone still has warranty left on it, you may try an authorized service center. I am also assuming you are using an AT&T phone? You may be able to get it fixed at Best Buy
Hello guys,
Previously I have rooted my S4mini with the advices given from this forum.
However, I am going to pass my phone over to my sister.
Do i have to unroot the phone first before reformatting it? I remember my software ended with ML4 previously.Doesn't matter if the warranty is voided. I just want it to look like its new from a shop.
I am not very sure of the process of unrooting. I have read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2521928 guide but the software I'm unsure which I should download or what I should do. I reside in Singapore.
I have found this website that has the firmwares but im unsure which to download. http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Can anyone please offer me some advice? Thanks !
I heard you can unroot via kies?
How does that work.
I cant seem to find the stock firmwares i need to dl.
Thanks!

U can`t unroot via Kies. From which country are u ?
Just go on sammobile and download the latest version of firmware avaible for your country, flash it with Odin and then factory reset your phone. It will be good as new
I have found it thanks.
I am unsure about the flashing part..
Trying the guide in the link above..
They told me to download either kies or drivers. But the drivers may be too old when i clicked the link
Hey everyone, I'm wondering if there is a way to restore my tablet so that I can get OTA updates again. I have rooted it and I'm wondering if I download the firmware from Sammobile, and load it into the tablet via Odin, will I be able to get updates?
yes. but you can also download the newest official firmware at sammobile. who need OTA anyway...
Factory Firmware

OP...I checked the SAMMOBILE site and did not see a US version for the firmware. BTW...could you point me in the right direction as to "how to" do the root on my Galaxy Tab S 10.5 SM-T800NTSSXAR.
Thanks, John
Thank you so much for your answer. Much appreciated! I believe I used Chainfire's root method which can be downloaded from his site. When I'm back from my vacation I'll send you the complete instructions!

Have you found the US firmware? I'm looking for the US version of the t700 firmware and can't find it.
I always use the "firmware upgrade and initialisation" setting under the "tools" tab in Kies. Just plug your tab into your PC click on the button and let it do it's magic. It's never failed for me and saves accidentally flashing the wrong firmware.
