So I was considering a return to stock. My question is if I find the stock 4.4.4 NH7 .tar and flash it, will it also update my bootloader and radio to the latest versions? I found the .tar here: http://www.droidviews.com/update-t-mobile-galaxy-s4-to-android-4-4-4-kitkat-and-root-it/

I've searched around and found only 1thread on returning to stock and it seems to assume you are running a modified stock rom, and uses a few different apps to acheive Stock status. I'm looking for a stock odin file that I can boot into download mode and flash and be returned to stock. Does that exist? I'm currently running CleanRom 4.8 with CWM recovery. I'm trading my Note 2 in tomorrow for the GS4 and need it back stock! Hope someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks!
Kind of a confusing post... Just flash the stock file in odin...

When you FLASH a STOCK file in ODIN your system status will NO longer say modified, not sure what you were reading but they were incorrect.

Here is the pre-rooted stock 4.1.2 firmware for T999: UVDMD5
Here is the official stock 4.1.2 firmware for T999 which is not rooted: UVDMD5
Both of these firmwares are Odin flash only.
Good luck!
Pre-rooted meaning before root? Or it's already been rooted?

I have a t999 that has slimkat on it. I rooted and installed slimkat awhile back. I'm wanting to go back to stock. the only stock rom i found on here so far is not a rom at all. it's an exe file that tries to install a ton of adware, malware and trojans (according to symantec).
Does anyone know where to find a stock rom? Also, I currently have the t99uvuenc2 firmware, so it needs to work with that, I guess. I don't know how to change that, but if someone can point me to the directions on how to get this thing back as close to stock as possible, that would be great.
Follow the link in the first post to sammobile.com and download the latest firmware from there. Then download Odin 3.07 or 3.09 and use the program to flash your phone back to completely stock.

Thanks, audit13. I'm back to stock with no issues at all. I'm fairly new to this, so I must have misunderstood something up at that first post. I'm all set now though.
im trying to install latest stock ROM for sgh-t999L but always ends up failing on odin. At sbl2.mbn then it says AUTH FAIL
so im trying to get my Galaxy S4 to 100% stock for return and its not working. i flashed the factory image but the baseband is till MK2. how do i get it to MDL? i never took the OTA update and just flashed the the MK2 modem.
This be in q&a and you should have read first, but to answer your question, you can't. There no going backwards on firmware

i cannot seem to find one. i have stock recovery at the moment. i thought i had to use odin to flash modems
i got it to MLD. i just took the Modem.bin from factory image and then used odin to flash it.

Answered in your other thread in Q/A.
I was wondering if I may run into any problems by doing this.
I know that on an AT&T phone (i747), if you do that, you may lose your modem and needs to be reflashed (you get a null IMEI)
Is it the same on a SGH-T999? I was planning to flash this ROM:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=26636
Thanks
There is no 4.4.2 to downgrade from for the T999.
If you just have a 4.4.2 Rom, you don't need to do anything.
The firmware you linked is the latest available so you can flash it regardless of what you have now.
There is no 4.4.2 update for the T999 so yes you can flash it but it is not a ROM, it is firmware, please do not confuse these two they are very different!
Yeah... I'm afraid I am confused. What I did was to flash this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2690947
Isn't that a ROM?
However I would like to go back to 4.3, so I was just wondering if I could have any problems.
Sorry for the noob questions. I think it was clear to me, but I'm afraid it's not...
Thanks
Yes that is a rom, what you linked to in the first post is firmware which contains more than just the system and that is where you run into problems when downgrading

So if I'm on 4.4.4 right now, is there a way to go back to 4.3?

Yes, flash the link you provided in the first post or flash a 4.3 rom.. Understand this, flashing a rom will not determine if you can downgrade or not, flashing firmware will. Since there is no 4.4 firmware for the T999 you can still flash the 4.3 firmware. If there was a 4.4 firmware and you took the OTA or updated via Odin then the only thing you could do is flash a 4.3 rom, firmware will not be an option
Edit: oh and btw I accidently pressed the thanks button so you got a free one

Thanks. I understand better now. I have always been kind of confused between ROMs and firmwares.
PS: I triple thanked you.
Hello people, first of all I dont know if im in the right place, Im new to this forum.
My situation is that I want to restore back to stock ROM my i747 with a custom rom running on android 4.4.4 with SlimROM, my Kernel is 3.4.104-cyanogenmod-g38a4e52
Baseband i747UCUEMJB
I passed through 4.3 stock ROM, then i flashed to Cyanogen 12 with android 5.1.1 and now Im with SlimKat with android 4.4.4. I want to go back to stock ROM, but I read about the locked bootloader on newer versions of android, I dont really know much about this thing, but I think that is if I want to go back to 4.1, im i right
The thing is, can I go back to 4.3 stock rom
Thank you.
The bootloader is not locked; however, it cannot be downgraded to anything before 4.3.

If you want the Stock Odin MJB 4.3 file, and can't locate it, let me know and I'll upload it.
I don't need the files as I never had an i747 but I used to have the i747m.
The op may need them though.

Thank you guys for your help, so Im good as soon as I flash to 4.3 stock, what about the recovery, is that made by Odin? Or should I first flash a specific one?
About the 4.4.2, is it better than the 4.3 and would I be able to go to 4.3 in case I get the NE4?
Again thank you for your answers.
Once you upgrade to the 4.4.2 bootloader, you cannot downgrade to the 4.3 bootloader.
Stock Recovery will be installed by Odin.
