[Q] Need a Canadian Stock ROM, Unrooted - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Title says it all. I was rooting my tab to remove bloat ware, didn't think too unroot it after but some game apps wouldn't run in rooted environment. Was gonna unroot when I realized I hadn't made a backup.
Now, I'm relying on your generosity.
Thanks

Yes, that's why I know I'm rooted.

You can go into SuperSU and scroll to the bottom and click "full unroot" and once its finished, reboot the phone and it should be unrooted.

Oh! I've never actually looked into SuperSU and noticed that. Thanks. For next time.
I've actually found a working, downloadable ROM from Sammobile already.

Did you already install the ROM from Sammobile as I recall someone saying a Canadian ROM from there was corrupt and caused problems on install?

I did get it from there, but the newest one does not work (either the link is bad or the file was unable to unzip), the next newest one T800XXU1ANF8_T800XAC1ANF5_XAC is downloadable and works. But still took a couple of hours to download.

[Q] How To Update Rooted S3?

Take a look in the android dev sections to this forum. If you ever update once rooted, you should be flashing a new ROM (clean or dirty flashing) to receive the next update. Running stock ROM in between a Sammy update and while having the older ROM without the newest update will yield that result.

There are plenty of reasons for rooting but remaining stock (such as: tethering, Droid wall, Titanium Backup to allow me to backup and restore app data, removing bloat, etc).
I have flashed custom rooms in the past on my Evo but right now I am happy with my S3 at stock.

I was in the same boat at you. I put it off for a while but finally decided to update tonight. I followed the steps posted here.
You can update your baseband by flashing a properly packaged official baseband zip, or flash from recovery tool (my preference), like the one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29820376. There are also unofficial, or leaked basebands, available to flash from all-in-one zips, such as the one here: http://goo.im/devs/freeza/Galaxy-S-fre3-LIGFirmwareModemAIO.zip.
As far as the build version goes, that does not have to match your baseband (modem). Most of the ICS ROMs are LG8, although there are some LI3 ICS ROMs to choose from. There's also a leaked build of Jellybean, builds LIF & LIG, with a third leak LIH reportedly coming out tomorrow. Once rooted, you can update your build version by flashing the ROM of your choice, based upon the build of your choice.
One of the top developers, and probably the greatest asset to this community, is freeza. He explained the difference very well here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32095775
That's a long-winded response, but I hope it answered your original question, and helps you out.
Have fun!
Edit: Once you're rooted, you'll still receive OTA update notifications, which will continually annoy you until you choose to update and reboot. Once you reboot, the update will fail because of your custom recovery (you will NOT lose root) and the notification will go away....until the next OTA...

Excuse me for my stupidity but I'm new to android. I'm also using the sprint variant of the s3 and have it rooted with stock rom. However my build number is IMM76D.L710VPALF9. I'm assuming the last 3 are the update versions. What is the current version and how do I update to it?
Also, I'm rooted with Clockwork mod 5.5.0.4. How do I upgrade this to version 6.0.1.2? Will I have to unroot then root again?
Thanks for clearing anything you can up. Don't mean to pirate the OP but I figured I'd post in this thread rather than make a new one. Thanks again.

That is one of the reasons that I am rooted... so I can use WiFi Tether. I do not it much. Hardly any data at all. But when I am in a spot and need a wireless connection and I only have my phone it comes in handy.
Some other reasons:
- DroidWall: Lets me block individual apps from accessing the internet.
- AddFree: Block ads in some apps.
why would you do that?

This work with your KitKat ROMs too?
I just went through and flashed your Odex Debloated KitKat ROM, and downloaded this to block the OTA from happening. However, I just noticed the last update of this is from December. Is it still OK to flash this on top of the KitKat ROM, or is that going to muck up things? (Or did you already "bake" it in by getting rid of some of the stuff in the debloat process?).
Thanks again!

Stock Un-Rooted HTC One..?
My husbands phone (which he refused to let me root when we had the chance, has been giving him a lot of grief with this latest OTA. It keeps downloading, attempting to install, and there errors 410 update failed, and exits software update. When I checked his phone after the latest attempt by the phone to install 4.4.3 to see if the download was still ON his device, it had disappeared with the failure of the update.
My question is, he's just sick of getting the prompt, error, and reboot - as a temp fix, can I push this OTA Killer onto his phone even though it isn't rooted and have it work, or do I need to find a signed RUU of the 4.4.3 and flash in bootloader (as I was originally planning on doing, but came across this...)
Thanks in advance!!!

If he has a custom recovery installed, then it will work. Have you tried downloading the OTAzip to his SD card and running the ota directly from stock recovery?

NO, no custom recovery installed, everything is 100% stock. He spent a good part of 3 hours with tech support with Verizon and HTC and they were both dumbfounded....go figure!
Problem is because it's a virtual SD, I have no way of verifying (without root) that it's even downloaded to the virtual one on the M7. Would it hurt anything to take a shot at it from stock recovery.....?
Or is there a link someone could suggest to a download to the OTApkg file?

I recently read a post, I don't know where now, but it had to do with a hidden Trojan/malware. That was started in 2013... After reading, thinking back to when this really started affecting me Feb,26, 2015. I noticed some strange things mentioned in my service log from around that date. The post mentioned how it places a high tracker in some obscure app. Unfortunately I got the bug, BAD!!! So not knowing about this until I made it worse by plugging my phone into my computer... I'm sure you can figure out the rest. My everything is screwed now. My HTC one m7, is the only device I can use period, now. I tried to root, and couldn't. Then downloaded another root checker, and it said my device was already rooted. Is there anything I can do(on my knees begging). This has to be the worst inter-web experience ever. Any and all ideas, advice, similar problems, links, and time are greatly appreciated. Thank you

Trying OTA Update - Getting Dead Android Icon

Hey Guys,
I'm trying to apply the OTA update to move to KitKat but I've tried it twice now and both times before it even starts doing anything on the installation after turning off, I get a dead android icon with a red triangle and an exclamation point. I figured this issue was due to me removing some packages to uninstall bloat but I restored all the ones I backed up and I'm not sure if I'm missing something. I'm rooted using the saferoot on 98.30.1.XT907.Verizon.en.US. How can I get my phone to update? I'm aware that I'll lose root but it's not imperative for me. I really only use it to get rid of ads using AdAway. Thanks in advance!
Is there a way to get the apk's for all the system installed apps that come with the Droid RAZR M? I could go through and install the ones I'm missing that way. I thought I backed up any ones that I was removing so that this wouldn't happen when a new OTA came out but apparently not.
Your best bet will likely be to RSD back to stock and then take the OTA.

So I would just want to use RSDLite from here - http://www.4shared.com/zip/uOa2HVb9/RSDLite616.html
And then download the same version of Android I have now (98.30.1.XT907.Verizon.en.US) from here - http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=8 and install that?
You could flash the new firmware right away.

Would that do a factory reset in the process? I just want to know if I need to backup my pictures before hand. I haven't had a problem with doing OTA's and losing pictures but I guess if there's some in there I want to keep I should back them up anyways. I don't really use my phone for many pictures though.
Using the linked files it shouldn't delete user data (wipe), but some system settings will get reset.
Please see this thread.

I'm not sure on that. I was on the stock rom to begin with but I had removed some bloat (thought I had backups for everything but I guess not) and after restoring it all it wouldn't install. Tried it twice to no avail. Then just grabbed the KK update zip file and RSD'ed it over and it was done in about 5-10 min. Phone was running slow while Google Play went and downloaded updates for all my apps but it's running beautifully now.

Yes, as long it's the same or a newer system version you're flashing: You can restore your version, you can upgrade it to a newer one, but to downgrade the bootloader has to be unlocked.

Truth be told, I never tried to downgrade from KitKat, so maybe there's something different now, but I believe it works, just as a downgrade from JB to ICS.

Here's the issue I'm having, that thread linked says it will flash a pre-rooted NJ1 rom - ok fine... But as far as I can tell, no one has specifically said they have flashed his pre-rooted rom on top of a stock NJ1 rom. They've all upgraded to NJ1 from NE# using his method.
Obviously the NJ1 'upgrade' was at least in part an attempt to prevent rooting, and I'm not experienced enough to unbrick (or effectively undo) whatever may happen in a botched attempt.
I'm assuming once you're on NJ1 stock rom, rooting is not possible?

I used Odin to flash the latest CF Auto Root for the phone, even without rooting a phone for at least a year (out of practice) I did it in less than 40 secs.

Finally I rooted it without too many problems, I had to re-install super su, but after all, it wasn't too complicated.
The difficult part was to enable tethering, because most fixes still need an AT&T chip.
The solution was this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/themes-apps/xposed-moto-x-4-4-native-tether-apk-t2601859
Thnak you very much for everything,

I am complete noob at this. I am running Nj1 and I have never rooted anything before. I am having battery issues and everything points to deleting the battery bin file. I could really use a little help on how to do this. When I go to the cf auto root page I can't find the file needed for I747UCUFNJ1

The file for NJ1 is the file listed for SAMSUNG-SGH-I747, which is http://download.chainfire.eu/235/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-d2att-d2uc-samsungsghi747.zip
You will see that the files inside the zip are updated after NJ1 was released.
Best regards from Uruguay,

Sure, I have 4.4.2!
It's not an stupid question because probably you saw 4.0.4 at the CF Auto Root page, that's just the first Android version that the s3 i747 used, now the latest official android version is 4.4.2

Ok so I went through and got it to say pass on Odin, but it's still not rooted. It said superSU has stopped. Tried a reboot and it keeps saying it. Root checker basic says its def not rooted. Idk where I went wrong.

Just update superSU using Google Play, and you should be rooted.
