Unrooting from CM 11 after a previous stock 4.3 OTA update - NAND Write Fail!!

Hi Guys,
I have an unlock code from AT&T and I want to use it from the Stock ROM. I am currently running CM 11 nightlies.
I tried the standard method of using ODIN from PC to flash stock ROM. It doesnt seem to work. I am always stuck in ;NAND write Fail'.
Before installing CM a while ago I updated OTA to 4.3, and based on what I read everywhere this seems to have something to do with the issue.
Any help on how to proceed will be great.
I am using ODIN 3.07
Downloaded Stock ROM from sammobile.
This is what my download screen reads.
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SGH-I747
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (2 Counts)
CURRENT BINARY: CUSTOM
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
Warranty Bit: 1
BOOTLOADER AP SWREV: 2
SW REV CHECK FAIL: Fused 2 > Binary 0
Thanks!

Once you have the 4.3 bootloader, you cannot use Odin to install a stock AT&T ROM. You can try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658486

Thanks! I will take a look. Hopefully I can unlock my device at some point.

Was able to unlock based on the lead from post #2

Attempting to flash stock rom

I've been trying to unroot and go back to stock for a couple of days now with no luck. I was running latest Omni and TWRP. When I try to flash via Odin it says FAILED then reboot hangs on Samsung GN2 screen. When I go to "Downloading..." screen it shows:
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1
AP SWREV: A3
SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 3, BINARY: 1

I wish I could help but I am having a similar issue. If you have had any success with this please let me know what you have found. Good luck!

Y`all need to ODIN flash a firmware version that does not have the boot.IMG. You most likely have a firmware version that has a locked boot loader.
MK6 or the latest NE5 are such animals.
You also need to add more info for people to help. Like where Odin failed, why you are flashing back, what version of Odin, etc.
Makes it easier to tell you a possible solution.

I had no issues coming back to stock after running pretty much all the 4.4 AOSP roms, going to sell the device so I wanted to sell it stock.
I was on the MC3 or LJ2 bootloader, not sure which one but I rarely, if ever, change radios. I first went back to TW 4.1 using Odin and following the steps on this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2275844

flash the root tar via odin somewhere in this forum or even on chainfires website. and then try rebooting. if not flash a custom recovery tar like philz and than i guarantee you will be able to boot into recovery and wipe your cache/ or flash a new rom

soft-bricked i747m

i had my s3 i747m on cm13. i was having a lot of problems with bluetooth. so i tried going back to stock firmware and i bricked my phone. i can still access download mode.
with odin running as admin or not, this is what it says when i try to install stock rom in download mode:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SGH-I747M
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
Warranty Bit: 1
BOOTLOADER RP SWREV: 2
SW REV CHECK FAIL : Fused 2 > Binary 0
i've tried looking for solutions, but all say the same thing...which is to use odin and install the stock rom file.
i had twrp recovery installed if that helps.

OMFG!! thank you!! it's working again with cm13! i was pulling my hair out lol.
i just reflashed twrp with odin and it started to work. i guess it was just the recovery files damaged?

Yes, sometimes stock images won't flash because the bootloader version is lower than the one you have.
