Trying the bootloader after further thought. Since odin bob7 wont flash in odin i doubt the BL will. Unless maybe using the BL partition only in odin. Im actually not even sure at this point as samsung did a number on us.

Where you able to flash the nandroid that @DreamingWolf posted? Did that get you up and running? If so, did you flash the file in TWRP as I was unsuccessful at flashing the file even when I put it into the TWRP folder.

This is a no go.
Background:
Buddy was rooting his phone and thought his build was OB7 but apparently it is OE1. He loaded up TWRP (wiped everything w/out backing up) tried to flash a custom ROM, no go (it boot loops). He then tried to ODIN back OB7, no go, fails.
I searched for him and found a backup nandroid [email protected] . I inserted it in the TWRP folder and under backups and tried to restore, no go.
Question:
Is he stuck until and OE1 tar is available?

It'll have to be stock recovery for it to even download to the phone I'm pretty sure.
Only a few options I can think of.
Get a stock VLALE6 recovery and install it.
Flash the stock FW and then update.
Or just flash the updated stock FW.
Has it already downloaded the ota?
It should be in /cache/fota/ if it has. It'll be update.zip.
If it did, I can help you get it installed as is. Make a copy of the update.zip if you can btw.

Always good to have another resource, but two things real quick...
He can't use this FW. Its for the T999 but since he's on Videotron he will almost certainly have the model T999V.
It does not say what build either the FW or the Recovery are. I'm guessing they are both the original build UVALEM, but it really should specify.
Thanks anyway man.

If you do have the T999V like I suspect, use the links I gave you a couple posts up.

If you unsure what a back up is then, personally I don't think that you should be flashing anything! Imho
Think you should do a lil research b4 you break something...
Sounds like your rooted, having CWM on there.. I prefer TWRP recovery.
But to make a back up you do it from the recovery.. And that's the first thing you should have DONE, was make a BACK up! B4 you started anything!!!

Hey there,
I clicked on the link that you provided (not for the files, but for the thread). I noticed on *that* thread, it was for i747M. Is this/your thread exclusively for i747? I don't want to chance it and brick my device due to a variant mess-up.
Thanks for publishing this info. =)
The link is if the i747m but I used the same process just with the i747 files.

From the threads I have been reading, NO, you can not unlock using this.
This procedure will allow you to downgrade your ROM to 4.1.1 while leaving you on the 4.3 bootloader. To unlock using the free method you must be on completely stock 4.1.1. Completely stock, including the bootloader, which would be LK3 for the i747, I believe.

Why don't you give it a try and let us know? I think as long as you installed the 4.1.1 modem, you will be able to unlock you phone.
i wasn't able to. i actually traded my s3 for a s3 running 4.1.2 and on that one i just downgraded and then succesfully unlocked that one. sadly i don't have either anymore because the one running 4.1.2 was having speaker issues. i now have a vivid and wish i wouldn't of traded lol.

I was able to downgrade from 4.3 to 4.1.1. I do have a few questions though...
1. S3ModedRom.tar: Is it for the I747 or I747m?
2. Modem file: Is it flashed through TWRP or CWM?
3. How do I go back to 4.3?
Also...for those wondering if you can FREE UNLOCK: NO. I get only a blank service menu
Input on the above questions will be greatly appreciated. Especially the 3rd question

Any ideas on going back to 4.3? Im currently downloading Samsung Kies. Any objections to that?
Followed the directions from a rooted 4.3 install and everything worked flawlessly. Thanks!!!
here is the seperated files so we can keep from updating the bootloader. so far i have noticed aside from kids mode and download booster that my phone running on att is picking up lte alot better in my home then b4. i use to have to lock the band to lte in my home to use it now it just keeps switching on its own like it should so i would say better signal. as for those who rooted 4.3 then injected root into 4.4 update using mobile odin you should be able to do the same thing with this update.
ok so as for the deodexed version of the rom im running into a snag. the new kernel does not seem to want to work if flashed through recovery. i can flash my deodexed rom but have to either flash another custom kernel or odin the ne6 stock in order to boot
ps it has come to my attention that i may have shared the first modem link wrong i apoligize for that this new link is setup correctly and everything is flashable using ap slot on odin

Alright so my dad just got a S4, and I did the same steps I did when I rooted my S4, except this time it didn't work. I flashed CWM Touch Recovery v6.0.3.2 and flashed the root file via recovery. Now when I reboot it gets to the Samsung Galaxy S4 logo, and just gets stuck. In the corner it says "kernel is not seandroid enforcing". I'm doing my best not to panic, but I could use some help fixing this.
I can:
Get into Recovery
Get into Download Mode
Any tips and advice would be amazing, thank you!
What "root file" did you use? You need to flash the stock firmware and then use Odin to flash CF auto root or something.

Oh ****, there was an update? Oh ****.
I used the root file found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2268880
Is there anyway I can reverse this?

No clue. I just assumed it would be the same as mine. I'd make the safe assumption it's 4.4.2 as the android version, as that is what the website is telling me. As far as Baseband I have no clue. Is there anyway I can find out without booting in?
I've actually done this same exact thing about a year ago with my last s4. All I did was flash the latest firmware with odin and start over. The fact that you can get in to recovery and download leads me to believe everything should be fine, except you may lose all you saved data like messages, pics, etc..

That is reassuring. It was an out of the box thing. We charged it, and then he had me do it real quick. Now I just got to find the latest firmware for 4.4.2.

Or which ever you prefer. Just make sure it is for 4.4.2.

Just for confirmation, this is the one correct: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SGH-M919&pcode=TMB#firmware
Don't want to be a dumbass and mess-up even more.
Those are the correct ones.

Alright, and when I flash it to the phone I can just follow this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2258628
Thise instructions are perfectly fine. The only difference is that you are using a newer firmware with a different file name.

Okay, and I should be using Odin 3.09?
Instructions
Extract (unzip) the firmware file
Download Odin v3.09
Extract Odin zip-file
Open Odin v3.09
Reboot phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
Add the firmware file to AP / PDA
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait a few minutes
I took those instructions from sammobile

Ah alright. Thank you so much for the help! I really appreciate it.
No problem. I'm glad I could help.
Just for future reference, you dont need to hold the HOME button when booting into Download mode or Recovery. Other than that stickboy is right. If you have to, just go on YouTube and find a 4.4.2 root video tut if you feel you need it.

Alright, so this should work to fix the phone though right? I guess lesson learned in this situation: Look to see what Android Version you're running before getting too hasty.
