What is a Stock firmware I can got back to before FNJ1 came out?? Having trouble with 4.4.2 FJN1! Send me where I can download firmware to Odin back. Thanks Guys and Merry Christmas to All....
Sorry this is for SGH-i747 AT&T
if by firmware you mean bootloader/modem , you will brick if you try to downgrade bootloader. maybe someone else with more knowledge will chyme in.
"all i can really do , is stay out of my own way and let the will of heaven be done"
What ever version was before 4.4.2 FJN1 that I have now to get rid of being rooted etc. Surely version before this still has locked boot loaders I can return to?
Surely someone has a stock FNJ1 I can Odin into my i747. Files in mine have gotten corrupted. Will someone help me Out with file I can Odin in phone. Know I can not go back to another version because FNJ1 locked boot loaders. Surely someone can tell me where to get .tar M5D of FNJ1 I can Odin. Thanks Guys and Merry Christmas

There is no ODIN .tar file for NJ1, at&t never released one. It was just an OTA update which was pointless because it didn't make anything better from the previous NE4 firmware. Have you tried doing factory data reset?
I have a guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-att/general/how-to-restore-device-status-to-t2832880
It's for Android 4.3, but should also work on 4.4

No it won't work. Since it is a stock rom it most likely will not work, he won't be able to call, text, or use data.

Wow. it seems as if you got people in here just giving you ODIN TARS to flash. i wouldnt listen/ flash anything than the leaked 4.3 update for att because MOST odin files have bootloader upgrades in them and if you are on 4.3 you will brick trying to restore stock

Based on the OP, the phone is currently running Verizon's 4.1 which leads me to believe the bootloader has not been updated beyond 4.1.2 since recovery mode is accessible; therefore, I think flashing 4.11 or 4.1.2 stock roms would be fine.
As always, it's best to check the installed bootloader before proceeding with any more flashes.
I used the stock firmware from here to downgrade my Bell s3 from stock 4.1.2 to stock 4.1.1.

Hey guys,
I got a I747 I want to give to my mother as a gift.
I downgraded 4.1.2 to 4.1.1 and ran the secret menu unlock to unlock the sim card, that worked perfectly.
Now I want to update this out of 4.1.1 to 4.4.2 but I cannot find a stock firmware to run on odin anywhere.
Do I need to go to 4.3 first? Is there a stock firmware for that?
SamMobile stops at 4.1.2... OTA obviously doesn't work.
How Can I get this done..

You can just flash stock 4.1.2 firmware from sammobile and then run OTA updates.
I also found this on sammobile: Canada (Bell Mobile) (Black Edition), Version: Android 4.4.2, PDA: I747MVLUFNE6

Will it work though.
I have it already on my pc, I updated my wife's with it.
If I update to 4.1.2 will OTA come? Even with the I747(not the I747m) on the Bell network?

I have a Motorola Atrix from Bell. I flashed it with stock ATT firmware and received OTA updates from ATT over wi-fi.
Since you have the i747, start with stock pre-rooted ATT 4.1.1. This will flash the stock recovery, radio, and bootloader. Run triangle away, flash a stock unrooted ATT stock 4.1.1 ROM, and take the OTA updates.

You can flash i747m firmware on your phone but DO NOT flash the radios or bootloader from an i747m to an i747 and vice versa. Bricking is a really possibility if you do that.
Do you have a custom recovery? If you do, you will need to install a stock recovery.
Try resetting the phone (wiping cache, data) in recovery or through the ROM itself.

Alright, I have the stock recovery. How do I not flash the radio and boatloads when using the firmware from sammobile?
You cant. You cannot flash another devices firmware. Odin wont let it happen and if it did youd end up hard bricked due to mixed firmware. For example your sbl1, modemst and param partitions (plus others) would be i747 and youd be flashing sbl2, sbl3, rpm, etc from an I747M.
The only thing you could use are the system partition and kernel, nothing else. There are two ways to accomplish this, one is to build a rom from the firmware and flash that. The other is to flash with mobile odin, but that requires root and youd still have to be very careful.
Another priblem I see you encountering is you cannot run 4.4.2 without 4.3 or newer firmware. It will not boot otherwise.
You need to go to the General section and follow one of enewman17's tutorials to get to either 4.3 or 4.4.2. Personally, I dont see any other way you will be able to accomplish it.

Alright, based on Doc holiday, and others they say It cannot be done and from my experience I beleive them.
Thank you,
It's very difficult to do this when others are giving bad advice.
So for the record, cannot flash i747m firmware to i747.
Thanks!
The annoying part here is I can do it with my m7, I just flashed the Dev edition onto my Bell m7 with no problems.
All devices are different in many ways. What is perfectly safe to do with one brand or model can brick another.
And I wouldnt call it "bad" advice... I've seen audit13 and others helping lots of folks with very good advice. We all make mistakes and we all have more we can learn about these devices. No one knows everything about this stuff and shouldnt let that prevent them from trying to help.
Those who are trying to help are doing so with the best of intentions and tell people what they think could be the best way to solve a given problem. In cases like this one, its easy to see how anyone would think its ok to flash different firmware between similar models based on being able to do so on other devices they are familiar with. (If I had gone into those forums I wouldve been telling people the opposite and ended up being wrong there.)
All I can say is chalk it up as a new lesson on a different device, and I hope you still appreciate that someone was trying to help.
@audit13 I hope none of this discourages you from helping. Ive seen plenty of threads where your advice was sound and appreciated, and I am glad you have been around to help so many people out!
Now, back on the problem at hand... if you want to be running the latest 4.4.2 kk, you will have the option to use the OS (/system and kernel) from either the I747 or I747M firmware. But first you must fully update to a minimum of the 4.3 MJB firmware for the I747. Once you have this running for your base firmware/bootloader, you can then run the Bell or AT&T (4.3 or 4.4.2) system. (I hope this is making sense!)
So first, update the full 4.3, MJB, firmware via Odin. (Theres a thread in General with the file, ill post the link in a min).
If you want to update to 4.4.2 firmware, you can then follow enewman17's tutorial to do so via OTA.
You can then either stay with that, or use Mobile Odin to flash ONLY the system and kernel from the Bell firmware.
Let me know if any of that needs better clarification! Also let us know what your ultimate goal is. From the options you have, where do you want to end up?

After updating with the 4.3 firmware, you can first try using the official ota to update. Then, if that fails you can go to enewman17's thread and try his method.

If you are sure you have the i747m and not the i747, you can flash the 4.4.2 ROM from sammobile.com using Odin.
yup its a i747m..but still anyway to confirm it ?
What baseband and bootloader is on your phone?
android 4.1.1 i747m baseband-i747mvldlk4..so whats the safest method now to go to 4.4 ?
Flash back to stock LK4 using firmware from sammobile.com and run OTA updates to 4.4.2.
any other alternatives ? my phones already rooted/custom recovery installed..also i would prefer a custom 4.4.2 touchwiz rom ?
cant i straight away download the stock firmware from sammobile 4.4.2 for i747m & update manually via odin ?

You can. I suggested starting with 4.1.1 because it's easier to revive the phone if something goes wrong when flashing 4.1.1 in Odin. If something goes wrong when flashing 4.4.2, it could be harder to unbrick.
Hello all, I need some help. I bought a used S4 from a local person here. It was on an old update, Version 4.3.
I rooted it, did not take the OTA. installed custom recovery and flashed latest NK2 via philz touch, at first the WiFi wasnt working, so I installed the wifi fix/NON-HLOS.bin via odin. I also installed Modem.bin to upgrade to the latest baseband of NK2 also. This is when the trouble started, I probably messed up.
Currently both baseband and build are now NK2
I've downloaded NK2 TAR and flashed them back to t-mobile stock in an effort to fix, I used triangle away, cleared the counters, flashed stock NK2 in odin. Still no sound through the speakerphone. It was working before I did all this so I don't think its a hardware issue, Anyone have any ideas? Best I can tell is its probably the NON-HLOS.bin I flashed. Is there a correct one I can do, or anyway I can fix this? I've tried all I know with my limited knowledge of this phone. I had first flashed modem.bin i found here on xda, but i think my mistake was flashing the LTE/NON-HLOS.bin. probably is an older one for my bootloader im on? not really sure. I have also tried these with no success. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55373341&postcount=22
Any help is appreciated! Thanks so much!
You only need the modem bin if you are staying on an older bootloader, that was your mistake. Check what bootloader you have right now and you need to match your NON-HLOS to whatever bootloader you currently have

EDIT: used Phone info app from play store,

PDA is NK2
CSC is NK2

Well you can re-flash NK2 firmware. Sometimes you have to flash a couple times for it to fully update everything

Ok I Odin'd NK2 several times, still no joy so I ended up using Fenny's guide to return to complete official stock on 4.4.2, then took tmobile's OTA updates and got back to 4.4.4 NK2 official, now bootloader says official samsung, status says official.
Bootloader: M919UVUFNK2
Baseband: M919UVUFNK2
PDA : M919UVUFNK2
CSC : M919TMBFNK2
EDIT: FIXED! Ended up a terrible coincidence, I took off and reseated the speaker on the back and it worked! Thank you so much for your help and pointing me in the right direction serio22 its much appreciated, I hit thanks for ya!
Still no sound, As far I read there are only 2 bootloaders for this device, so Im pretty sure I'm on the new one since it mentions knox on it.
I suppose its possible the hardware happen to fail at same time as all this? Seems like a crappy coincidence, but I dont know what else to try. Any other ideas? Everything is stock/official non rooted and up to date at this point.
Cool thanks posting what worked for you
I rooted my n910p a while back with the emotion kernel and twrp. My phone has been messing up even before rooting which is why I rooted in the first place. All I need to know/want to do is unroot and go back to stock. I understand how to do it with odin but everytime I download the stock rom files I always get an error such as pit partition or something. I just want to unroot so that I can get another phone without them noticing its rooted. I know when you turn the phone on it says things in the top left like android is se enforcing. Is there a way to unroot to where they can't tell its been rooted?
P.S. I know I'm all over the place with this post ive been trying to unroot all day with no luck. Please help somebody!

Which tar file are you trying to Odin? From my understanding, you have to Odin the tar ROM that installed the last pit file. So you might have to download and try each individual one till it takes it. Are you on MM or LP?

makes sense, but what do you do when you have something like Noterized, like me, and in this case, my build is OB7, but my bootloader and baseband are OE1... I had the same odin error recently, and i am going to try to odin the full OB7 again, but if that does not work, there is no full OE1 rom, it was just a security update... and thanks much for your help, ianmb...
