I just got my n5100 with JB 4.1.2. I rooted and installed Philz recovery. Then realized I should have upgraded first. (I'd like to use air commands).
I believe I just need to Odin the 4.1.2 firmware, but I cannot find it.
Help is appreciated!
thnx!

Hi guys, hoping to get the Galaxy S5 tomorrow. So I wanna sell my Note 2.
I need to go back to stock to do this (not rooted, stock firmware)
I am currently running a 4.4 stock based custom ROM
I know with some Samsung's you can't downgrade after getting 4.4 firmware installed on your device.
Or can I download 4.3 firmware from sammobile and flash through odin without issues?
If this is the case. Would someone please Tell me a link to a 4.4 stock firmware I can flash through Odin please? Can't seem to find one.
PLUS any recommendations to prevent bricking my phone will be greatly appreciated!

Yes you can downgrade after a 'Custom' 4.4.2 to 4.3, not sure about official because it is still not available. Try flashing it with Mobile Odin Pro instead of PC Odin.
Note: Backup your all content and EFS as well to save signs of your phone.
Hello guys!
There's a problem here.
I have Sprint Galaxy Note II SPH-L900. What I did:
1. Flashed stock 4.4.2 via Odin over stock 4.3.
2. Rooted via Odin.
3. Installed CWM via ROM Manager.
4. Flashed CM10.1.3-L900 (based on 4.2.2) + appropriate PA GApps via CWM. I don't like CM11 after 10.1.
Device hangs on boot splash (rotating ring), turns endless. Where's my problem? Is it correct to flash via CWM lower Android FW than previously flashed via Odin/Kies higher one?
And one more question. Is it possible to recover via CWM Stock 4.1.2 over flashed stock 4.4.2?
The common reason L900 is American Carrier version of Note 2. Since 4.3 stock TouchWiz looks most in English. This is my old age retired buddy's device. He doesn't read English and needs Ukrainian/Russian interface translation. That's why I advised him CM.
Thank you.
UPD. Solved. The problem was I didn't do wipe after flashing the CM10.1.x fw. Now works well.
I have searched first no luck however maybe someone can help me out.
I currently have the Galaxy S3 i747 running cwm recovery (did the option to disable the stock recovery from reseting). Right now i am running on 10.2.1 cm. Firmware is i747ucuemjb
here is my question... i know that there is a newer baseband firmware out for kitkat.. in the near future when there is a stable non snapshot cm11 id like to move over to that.
Can my current jelly bean run on the newer firmware that came out with the kitkat update?
is there an easier way to update my firmware to this than going back to stock?
the cwm recovery is would stop that if that is the only route so what to do about that and get the stock recovery back?
if the newer firmware wouldn't effect me running jelly bean id like to update it however.. id rather not go all the way back to a stock device in order to achieve this.
I have samsung kies and odin on my laptop that i used to flash cwm and am familier with its use.
anyone point me on the right path here?
thanks
edit:sorry found what i needed. found it under general. this can be deleted as i cant seem to find option
thank you
Recently brought my GS3 I747M back to life from a hard brick... and I flashed it to stock 4.0.4 rom via odin when doing so.Would I be able to upgrade it directly to stock 4.4.2 using odin? Or do I need to upgrade it to earlier version first, like 4.1 and 4.3? (phone is already rooted, so cant do it thru OTA). Thanks!
You can flash it with odin, but will need to factory reset too.
sure worked, thanks!
I'm running 4.3 but want to upgrade to official 4.4 or any stock firmware that's snappier than 4.3, don't know much since I just got the phone and I've already rooted it with twrp recovery...
Confused about what to flash, please help
For stock 4.4.2, look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ile-sgh-i747ucufne4v4-4-2attall-odin-t3305899
Thank you for the link but I'm still confused how... Should I just odin the firmware or what
Yes, the files are flashed via Odin in the appropriate slots.
