To start with, I have searched, but I am still confused on how to get back to stock from rooted NF9. Just not sure where to get the .tar to Odin or even which specific .tar I need. I used to be big into rooting, but I got out of it for a while and don't remember how to do too much. Thank you guys for any help.

I recommend Mskips toolkit, does all the hard work for you, will flash stock and open ODIN by itself! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746680
I want to un-root my at&t s3 that has stock ICS so I can take the JB OTA update. Found the instructions and a .tar file. After Odin completed, the phone is still rooted. Ran Odin with the .tar file again and the phone was still rooted. I guess the .tar file that was posted was already rooted. Can someone please point me to the "stock" ICS file to flash? I have tried Googling for it and I have searched XDA. Any help would be truly appreciated.
Thanks

im trying to update my girls gs2 from FI27 to something newer, GB08 maybe? Im a little confused on what to flash...ive rooted the phone, still on stock rom and radio and all that. agat something for a recovery.
basically im wondering if i just flash a kernel and matching modem, am i good to go? or is there firmware involved? ive searched and browsed the forums and im still not sure.
any help and/or links would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.
Your best bet is to just install one of the one-click ROMs on rwilco's site. See the Android Development section for more info. They contain modem, kernel, and ROM in an easy to use format. They don't increment your flash counter either.
Hey folks. Just heard the 4.1.2 update is out. I am requesting for the stock koodo 4.1.2 with root injected into it. Preferably a flashable zip I can use through recovery. Seeing as I cant update through kies or OTA. Thanks guys. I hope I put this in the right spot and sorry for any duplicate threads in advance. I haven't seen anyone else send out a request yet on this matter.

If it's actually up, it hasn't been uploaded here just yet. That being said, you could backup your stuff and update with http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ (go check if the firmware is out for SGH-747m).
It won't be pre-rooted but you can root after flashing it. Also, Odin is usually needed to flash stock.

Stock with root injected is good if you don't want to trigger the flash counter incured by using a custom recovery. If it is a zip you will trigger the flash counter. The stock root injected would need to be done with odin or heimdall.
if you just want root then pulled the firmware from sammobile and then just root it.
Someone is bound to put up a rooted stock zip soon. are you rooted now ?
Yes I am. I originally used Odin to to do so. I found someone on here that had the koodo 4.1.1 with root already added.
Send from my awesome stock rooted I-747M from koodo.
Just to inform you, the flash counter was triggered using root66_KDO_I747MVLDLK4 through odin. It changed from official Samsung to custom and the counter to 1. This allows me to update through kies but not OTA. I want to use OTA so I can keep root. Here is what ive been trying...
Installed Triangle Away and reset the counter to 0 and back to Official Samsung SGH-I747M. I can now go into software update and perform an update. But now instead of saying my phone has been modified, it just does an endless searching for updates. My plan was to use voodoo root keeper but its pointless now if I cant even see that update.
Ohhh well. I can go back to stock and update that way (which I will eventually do) but I absolutely need root as I use my phone for ARliberator, OBD2, and much more.
I will keep searching and hoping I can find a way to update to 4.1.2 to keep root or just be patient and wait for someone to make a stock rooted version I can install through odin or flash recovery.

It's just as easy to flash the update and then root. There are guides all over the stickies for it.
OK, I went ahead and updated with kies, then used CF autoroot with odin and now im upgraded with root. Now I feel like an idiot.... It seems so simple now and easy to do. I just made a bigger deal out of it than it was. Kept all my existing apps and info on the phone too. But made a backup just in case. You may now close this thread. Thanks!
Ok, long story short, I need to go back to stock ROM. I am currently running the deadly venom ROM 4.1.2. I have been reading in the forums, but I am getting a little confused. There are so many different topics regarding this. I just don't want to brick my phone. So, do i need to just find the 4.1.2 stock firmware and then use odin to flash it? Or do I need to go back to 4.1.1 and the use OTA update? I didn't know if I went back to 4.1.1 it would brick my phone since i'm on 4.1.2. Thanks in advance for the help.
Download 4.1.2 stock for your phone/carrier and flash with Odin downgrading not necessary
