It worked for me too. BUT BE WARNED, CHOOSE THE RIGHT FILE OR YOU'RE PHONE WILL BRICK.
For example, if you're phone is At&t i747 then choose that file, but if you're phone is I747M Canadian (My model) then choose that file.

Best of luck to you, and yes you would probably just want to read the entire instructions part. It's not that complicated.

Another method that works to root 4.3
In case it's helpful for other users, I was able to successfull root my i747M (Rogers) on 4.3 stock using Method 2 described in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2538991

[Q] Can you do this?

My Tab S is currently rooted and running on the UK version of the Samsung Firmware 4.4.2. Is it possible to flash/install Samsung Firmware from a different country, one that now has 5.0.2, without the Tab S experiencing any adverse effects?
Thanks

Thank you for the quick response. I'm quite new to this rooting/flashing process and was wondering what are the differences between the Samsung Tab S Firmwares? I was thinking if it was possible to flash/install the Canadian 5.0.2 firmware via Odin but wasn't sure what to expect in terms of what my Tab S behaves and looks like now. Does it matter that my Tab S is rooted?
Thanks.

It seems to have worked. I have noticed though that I've lost Root so presumably I'll have to re-root and re-install TWRP?

I also flashed a TWRP Custom Recovery.

You don't need to use cfauto root as well as twrp. Twrp is capable of rooting any device on its own. Just Install twrp, boot into twrp then select reboot. You will then be prompted to root.

Software Update

anyone else get the prompt to update the software? are you going to update?

Got it and did it 2 days ago

Same and same

probably too early to know, does anyone know if this update will affect root? coming from htc, i remember updates were frowned upon as they can make rooting more difficult.

below is the link I used. The battery drain is bad but manageable. I think it puts the wrong recovery on the phone, but it does root the phone. I was able to use titanium again :highfive:

There's a search function for a reason and the devs on here don't have time to just hold your hand and walk you through everything you have to be willing to help yourself and learn how to do things on your own and then if you have a problem or run into trouble then ask for assistance but don't ask to have your hand held through it all.. Learn about what Odin is and stock roms And a few other things in order to accomplish a downgrade..

The search function doesn't tell me what you tried to do.. I already wrote a tutorial on how to downgrade successfully. Since I don't know what you've tried so far there's nothing I can do right now to help you.

Here you go.. Make sure you substitute the Verizon firmware for the AT&T firmware as @TechNyne66 said, the OGG firmware.. As long as it's firmware from AT&T you should be good to go.. However if it still errors out and doesn't work that means they (AT&T) have blocked it and you'll have to enter into recovery and select full system restore in order to fix it and get it back to where it is right now.. I'd first make a backup if I were you!!

Use PB2 ODIN file. It's the best 5.1.1 firmware.

I did it using only ap and csc files

So it worked for you?

i am on QB2 Feb. 1 security patch wanting to downgrade to pb2 but unable to locate one. actually i located one but it fail when flash in ODIN. i used the latest odin. also tried jesterhacked odin and also failed..

If you are past the the PH4 update this is not the thread for you.
If you are still on PH4, stop trying to downgrade your bootloader, unless you are flashing a Binary 3 bootloader.
All of this has been explained within this forum. Check my profile and go to my posts. I've already wrote it all up two or three times...

I'd suggest keeping twrp. Make a full device backup with it to sdcard. It's your safety net should anything ever go wrong. You'll be glad you did one day.
