I would like to know if I can unroot and install stock firmware with android 4.1.2 I do not have any issue?
I will be waiting for your help, thanks
I know that you are very busy, but can anyone help me with this, please?
Is my question in wrong place?
Do you have access to custom recovery. If so flash a custom 4.3 rom. Ill recommend the s.w.a.r.m rom
If not ill google how to downgrade to 4.1.2 or google how to get rid of knox
If you want to stay stock flash Mr Robinsons rom, it is stock, rooted and Knox-free.

My phone is stock rooted but not on Mr Robinson's. Performance wise it should be same or better than stock ROM since it's the stock ROM.

Are you saying the MrRobinson's ROM isn't rooted ? Did you try the version 2 he posted ? I know that the first one had some issues.
If you are on 4.1.2 and only use PC odin for flashing then you can flash this stock rooted, knox-free ROM I uploaded here.

This ROM will not update your bootloader and you can switch back to 4.1.2 using PC odin.

You do not understand me, right now it has 4.3 stock Rom with Knox, and I did root with chainfire auto-root, but does not work!
It do not has any root access, is impossible flash custom recovery.
Can I unroot, and install via Odin stock firmware 4.1.2, it has any issue?
I appreciated your help.
No problem,
You can install Mr Robinsons root 66 rom, make sure you download the v2 version and you will be all set.

But, Can I flash anhoter Rom?
If I downgrade via Odin, with stock firmware, android 4.1.2. Can I?
Because I would like to flash some cm Rom.
Your phone is already on 4.3 bootloader and there is no way to downgrade that.
But you can still flash any 4.1.2 ROM'S as long as you do not flash the bootloader. Almost all custom ROM's come without bootloader so you should be able to flash them via CWM,TWRP or mobile din.

If I wanna upgrade to the official JB and my S3 is rooted with custom rom, is it safe to upgrade to official jb via Kies? Or should I go back to stock ics before upgrading?

If you want to go from a custom ROM to stock JB, Kies won't do it. You will need to flash via Odin. You will loose root and your custom recovery.

Link please ? Do that Odin program and how to flash JB on it
If you're going to have to use odin anyway, you should consider installing mrRobinson's root-injected stock jellybean rom. Then you won't have to worry about rooting it. Worked awesome on my stock rooted ICS with stock recovery. Also worked awesome on my son's stock rooted ICS with CWM. Here's the link. Everything you need to know is in the first post.

Do I need to get rid of my custom rom if I wanna upgrade? If I don't, will it brick it?

As the topic said, is it safe to downgrade from 4.3 , knox free custom rom to 4.1.2 custom rom?
another question is, once I installed any 4.3 knox free custom rom, is it safe to restore my 4.1.2 rooted stock rom backup without any problem?
For both question I use philz recovery.
I dare not to flash any 4.3 custom rom if I can't find any answer.
Thanks in advance!

I am not trying to scare you but I have read people saying their phone is ****ed up after flashing 4.3 rom. Now they want their phone to just work. if you're lucky you will run 4.3 flawlessly otherwise you will post a thread asking about how to make your phone work again

As per my knowledge there is no issue to downgrade from knox free ROM. However you needs to read a lot to do so. :laugh:

Is it possible to install 4.1.2 custom rom on a note2 which has official 4.3?
Bump.... Any one tried this?
That's what I'm wondering too! It's what's keeping me from updating bootloader/rom right now
Bump.. bump? Anyone running a custom 4.1.2 rom on 4.3 bootloaders?
I have had no issues. With roms on 4.3 Other then my Knox counter tripping.

How did you install 4.3 bootloader, did you upgrade from 4.1.2? Can you point me to the instructions for the same?

Why? Did you already flash a 4.3 rom? Just restore a nandroid.
No it is updated officially to 4.3, so has the new bootloader.
So can't reverse the bootloader, but the question is can I install 4.1.2 based rom now?
All I did. Was odin the rooted stock 4.1.2 put on cwm and flashed rom

I was going to say just use Odin to return to stock JB. I found that advice in a thread about this for at&t, but later on the thread a Canadian user said it worked for him.

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

If you flash the official Samsung 4.3 Jellybean MK2 odin flash firmware you cannot go
back to the stock 4.2.2 Jellybean MDL firmware whether you root your phone or not.
Rooting the 4.3 official jellybean odin flash firmware will trip the knox counter unless
you do a lot of reading and find the alternative rooting methods here in xda.
Good luck!
