Looking to go back to stock rom - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

I'm looking for some help. I've been reading and I want to make the jump back to stock TouchWiz for now. I'm currently running cm11. Can I just use Kies to go to 4.3? I never updated to 4.3.

Rather than Kies, I suggest you use Odin. Much easier. Less complicated.

Thanks

once you use triangle away you have to factory reset it to return to stock
There is no update yet.

And no worries man, usually when there is a firmware update we will get our hands on it and have a ROM set and ready to rock before the download from kies would even finish

LMAO!!!! so so so true...
Ive never ran across this problem before with the s2 or 3. Im on the stock injected firmware and want to be able to get updates without having to odin back to stock or flashing a different recovery. How would one go about this? Sorry for thread jacking but figured others will have this question. Thanks.

The previous answers cover it. I went back to stock on my S 3 for the last official ICS update, but was really a WOT. Don't have to ODIN back to stock unless you want to run on stock.
You would probably see an Odin update (which will install the firmware and and Modem when a simple ROM flash would not) pretty soon after it is OTA'd, and you could use this and not have to have the hassle of going back to stock to get it. If it is not a complete ROM, you will have to be sure you are already updated to the firmware that the OTA would be updating.

You are clueless. Stop messing with phones, you have no idea what you're doing.

Revert to Official ICS?

Is there any way that I can revert back to ICS after updating to official 4.1.1? I'm really becoming annoyed by the lag on the S3 after the update and would like Ttp simply go back to official 4.0.1 or whatever build it was. Thanks!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
the build is 4.0.4. you should use the odin packages for the most recent version of ics you can find in the no trip flash counter root.

You need to do a factory reset. Back everything up and do a proper factory reset

I'm not rooted, not sure how to root anyways on 4.1.1. I did a factory reset anyways and it didn't seem to help.

Back to stock

I've been having stability issues with ROMs lately and want to go back to stock for a little. I was on 4.2.1 when I rooted, so would I just restore my backup or should I flash a stock 4.3 ROM, so I don't end up updating somehow and getting KNOX?
If you haven't updated your bootloader or OTAed to 4.3, I'd first try the Nandroid if I were you, and stay away from 4.3 if possible. There are entirely too many issues around here with the 4.3 update, and no way to go back to complete stock if something goes wrong.

i will agree to it. Dandroid is very good and stable.

[Q] Unroot to 4.3?

I am looking for a guide to see if its possible to Unroot and go back to Stock 4.3 (M919 Model)
I am not 100% sure if downloading the Original M919UVUEMK2 and running through ODIN will do it. So I am kind of Paranoid on taking further action towards going back to Stock Firmware via ODIN seeing how I have not spotted anything. I've only seen Guides that show how to do it with 4.2, which doesn't the bootloader or something Block Downgrades?
I don't really care about the KNOX Flag, I just wanna go back to stock.
Please and Thankyou!
Odin will work as long as you never updated to the official 4.4.2 firmware

Sweet, so it doesn't matter at all if I'm on a custom 4.4.2 ROM correct?
Otherwise thanks for the tip man!
Nope! Just remember to factory reset after you flash it and back up your files

Possible to revert back to JB after KitKat?

I received a refurbished phone with KitKat already installed. I am already rooted. What has to happen for me to be able to go back to jelly bean? The one search I found didn't give a final answer

You can flash a zip through cwm and get back to JB, but do not try to flash back using Odin because it'll brick you. And just know that even if you flash back to a JB ROM you are stuck with KK boot loader and modem.
