4.3 clean root on SGH-I317M on Build JSS15J.I317MVLUCMK5

Ok so this is what i did to root my Telus Device SGH-I317M on Build JSS15J.I317MVLUCMK5
I started with a factory reset from backup and reset dont think this is necessary but nice to do with a clean isntall
once that was done i turned off the device and booted into download mode volume down + home + power
opened ODIN 3.09 and added the CF-Auto-Root-t0ltecan-t0ltevl-sghi317m.tar.md5 to the AP section. then clicked start. once done the device restarts back to normal and the root is applied, but during that KNOX detects it and disables it from working.
plug device into computer and ran Kies 3 and ran a firmware upgrade and initialization. took about 20 minutes.
once phone started you will notice superSU is no longer on your system.
TEST FOR THIS PART... PROBABLY not necessary but i did this and this is what happened.
run KNOX and allow it to Install. once done it will ask you to add passwords and at the end it will say it is not compatible with this device or whatever. KNOX has now terminated its warrenty or what not and will not install.
i did not have an update for superSU on Google Play but i DID have the update on Aptoide. so i updated it and ran the program.
program told me it was no longer on the device saying the libraries or whatever were not there.
so i ran Odin and ran AP again and ran it once it was done phone started and no messages and superSU worked.
because now that you factory loaded from kies for some reason it knows you attempted it the first time that now knox will not work
not quite sure how that works or if its even relevant. but when you see in the download mode it says warrenty void 1 or whatever and the knox crap its all disabled now i am guessing because i got no problems or messages once i finished it all
so step by step.
STEP 1. put in download mode and run odin 3.09 load AP and make sure Auto reboot and F. reset time are the only ones with check marks and then click START.
STEP 2 Once device reboots you will get errors and knox blocking it. this is normal. (for me it was anyway) open Kies 3 and do firmware upgrade and initialization. depending on internet connection this could take some time. you may be able to Odin the firmware but i chose kies 3
STEP 3 Once system restore from Kies is done open KNOX and install it. should fail and say not available for this device. (happened on my device)
STEP 4 either run aptoide and download the update for superSU tho you dont see it, its still there. open that will tell you to re do the root process again.
STEP 5 run odin 3.09 load AP and make sure Auto reboot and F. Reset Time are the only ones with check marks and then click start.
STEP 6 once device has started download root checker from the google play store and test. should say success.
i did at first after i root checked it with success i rebooted the device and started it up then opened superSU asked me to download binaries i pressed back by accident and then it said knox detected would you like to try and disable knox. select yes. and then success
you are rooted and no more notifications.
THESE ARE THE STEPS THAT I DID TO ROOT MY DEVICE FOR THE SPECIFIC MODEL AND BUILD so results may differ from others. so far its worked on my SGH-I317M TELUS phone running virgin mobile sim
Hope everyone else has as much success as i did.

If you just want a custom rom all you really need to do is update the bootloader or already be on 4.3 official then just boot into download mode use Odin 1.85 to flash twrp recovery wipe your data and flash the rom you want. Or just update to official use chain fire auto root and just update supersu it will disable Knox.

Is there an updated bootloader/modem? I am on skynote 4.3 r9z, but my baseband is still LJ2, I need the mk5 modem for i317m.

If you can't find a Odin modem I would update to official then re root and flash away.

Thanks but I am not that keen on getting the official rom. For one I hate using kies, it was a mess when i tried to update with my old s3, so I have not used it at all. Plus I have tons of stuff on my current phone that i would need to restore after things are done.
Also, i'd rather not having to deal with knox if i can, even though the phone is out of first yr warranty period. I have always used custom roms on my note 2 and s3 so i will leave at that for now.

I tried that method didn't work for me. I couldn't update or use superSU maybe the root I used didn't fully install but they way I wrote down to doing it on stock room works every time.
I haven't tinkered with any custom roms yet either, not sure what's the benefit of them

The main reason to use a custom rom is to remove all carrier related stuff on your phone. It also let's you add different mods and features you want. For example you can use the note 3 roms. Pretty much turn your phone into a note 3.

It looks like the DN3 rom will get an update tomorrow. Right now the only bug is the contacts app not working right. I'm sure that will be fixed. I've been using it and the note 3 features are nice.

Right now you just need to flash the rom then devil kernel and the 317m modem. Don't worry you won't brick. I would wait for tomorrow to flash because it will be updated and it might have all the options for the 317m. I have a 317 myself

alright ill wait till tomorrow. and hopefully i find a detailed description on how to do all this. ive only ever ran the s1 because it was bricked had to run all the modem the pda and pit or whatever a long time ago so my minds gone all fresh on the rooting and flashing roms. ive only ever run stock roms. but for 4.4 i want to get it on my device because i love the group play video and the screen recording and the other few things that are awesome on the note 3
unless there is a way to get all that on the 4.3 note 2 firmware that would be awesome as well

i317m - no mobile data with CF-auto root zip file in odin
I guess I have done enough reading to be dangerous. I wish there was a comprehensive glossary for this stuff.
Anyhow - through ODIN I have flashed CF-Auto-Root-t0ltecan-t0ltevl-sghi317m - and today I have no mobile data.
Where could I find an image to go back to the original phone and start again? It is an i317m Note2 from Bell
Thanks

Today no mobile data
Basically - I have no mobile data (it seems) How can I diagnose my problem. Is there something to show signal strength. Or is there a log file showing whether my modem is handshaking or what can a guy do?

i actually used shiamatsu's method of going from the MDL modem to the NB4 modem.
so i cannot revert back to the MDL modem even if i were to flash the MDL modem via odin?
i cannot revert back to older modems via odin if i were to say flash an international modem like the XXUFNB8 or XXUFNB9 modem for the I9505?
can i flash those international modems on my t-mo s 4 to fix wifi issues i'm having?

Modems you can. But thats not whats posted. If you flash full nb4 firmware with its bootloader. You can not downgrade.
i9505 modems you can't flash. They'll be rejected and fail. Ive actually forced them to flash and lost all service.

I flashed the C-Rom found in one of the threads on this forum for the t-mo s 4.
However, my wifi is now wonky and it doesn't log into or accept my wifi login details or allow me to connect to wifi
so i was thinking since it is an international rom, i might try to flash an international modem to try and fix the wi fi issue.

Na not at all. Doesn't matter what you're running, will erase all of whatever rom youre running and install the firmware. Recovery, roms, kernels, etc dont matter at all. You may have to wipe data and cache in recovery after you flash it for it to boot tho which is common no matter what you're running.

Tried update, now says software is up to date

Hello,
I have always thought that OTA update would fail with a custom recovery. However after reading about another user's experience I decided to try it. This person stated that when they did the update CWM warned them that it would be replaced and asked if they wanted to fix it. It also warned that they would lose root and asked if they wanted to fix it. Sound familiar to anyone?
I did download the update but when I tried to install it failed. Now AT&T says my software is up to date, which is not true.
I am still on 4.1.2, rooted, CWM installed. Best way to upgrade now? I can't even find the OTA upgrade file that I downloaded.

From my experience with 3 i747m phones, rooted systems well not take an ota update.

Yup, you cannot get the ota if rooted, or with a custom recovery. You need to be full stock. Best way is a fresh firmware flash and factory reset.

I don't have to install OTA, I just wanted to update to the latest official AT&T version. Is there a flashable available that will work coming from 4.1.2?
By the way I used triangle away, downloaded update again, thought it was going to work but the update crashed
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using XDA Free mobile app

The latest firmware that's available is the 4.3 build. Havent been able to make a working one for 4.4.2 yet. But you can update using that firmware then use one of the threads in this section to update to kk.

Ok confused. Not sure how to install 4.3. Have read about bootloaders and modems needed before flashing. Guess I will have to keep reading. How to gy from 4.1.2 rooted, CWM, to the latest official which now I think is 4.3?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using XDA Free mobile app

You can either follow the OP through step 4, or flash the firmware from this thread using Odin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2722660
After that you can follow the remaining steps in this OP, or try to get the official ota to update to 4.4.2.

Since you do not have the 4.3 bootloader, you could start fresh by installing stock 4.1.1 from sammobile.com using Odin and then just keep running OTA until you get to 4.4.2. Remember, using Odin will wipe everything on the phone so make sure you backup your important data.

Everytime I try to download something from Sammobile.com my AVG pops up a warning. Is this normal? I haven't yet made it through all of their stalls, installs, etc. to get to downloading the actually firmware.

Used to love AVG. But I think theyve gone downhill and this is a perfect example. Its a false positive. (Unless your browsers been hijacked or youre clicking on a bad/fake link).
Ive been using sammobile for years and never had a single problem.

I have been using sammobile for quite some time.
The site is legit. Maybe avg is causing the problem. I can download with no problem.

Not trying to be annoying, as I said haven't done any of this for a while but.....could I not flash a stock recovery, use triangle away, unroot, and then get the ota to work?

You could try that but there is no guarantee that it'll take the OTA update after going through the procedure you described.
If you removed too many Samsung Apps, that may cause the OTA update to fail as well.

Don't think I removed any Samsung or ATT apps I just had them disabled. Since I tried to run the update though they have all resurrected themselves. I have never flashed a stock recovery or unrooted before though

All I can say is try it and see what happens. If it doesn't work, the simplest would be to restore to completely stock and start the OTA update process.

I guess I can't read, but so far I have been unable to download the 4.1.1 from sammobile. I have gotten some media player, etc. which I don't know whether is still on my computer or not, but have not gotten to the download of the actual software.
Do I have to agree to everything that they try to get me to install?

You are probably hitting one of the ads that put up fake download buttons. Just a guess though.

It seems that registering helps

I downloaded two versions of the firmware on SamMobile and installed one by odin. when the Tab rebooted, everything stops working and restarts the tablet. ui system stopped working. TouchWiz stopped working. I tried to make a full wipe. But it did not solved.
Can anyone help me troubleshoot this?
PLEEEEEASE. ]

By downgrade, do u mean go to the previous version of android that u were trying to upgrade?

Or just so whatever Kies gives u

I'm experiencing the same force closes and reboots after updating

Yes, you can easily downgrade
You can simply download whatever you want to have on your tab from www.sammobile.com and flash it,
Go there, go to firmware section, type in your device model number, search for your country's firmwares, select which android version you want, which update you want
And download it
Then flash it from Odin
That's it, you are done

Can you provide logcat? Though not to me, but to some other DEV and ask for solution after telling them your problem,
Give it to me too, I will try but can't guarantee to tell you the possible solution(may be)

Im sorry man, but I dont know what is logcat.
That ia very difference, as I told I have a galaxy note 3, and when something is wrong, I install a firmware by Odin and everything back to works.
I already tried 3 firmwares in that tablet and I got the same result, force closes and reboots.

There is no way to get the old bootloader. All 4.1.2 firmwares did not come with a bootloader. Odin stock 4.4.2 then install a 4.4.2 based rom.

Tried dat still doesn't work. my sister tab was 4.1.2 she didn't update and whens she flash a 4.4.2 rom she has no problems or bugs like i do

Did you tried factory reset after flashing stock rom? If not then try it them reply

[Q] Can we be clear: can we or can we NOT revert back to KK after Lollipop update?

I keep reading that we can "flash" back. When we say this do you mean for the Verizon retail version or the Dev version?

Verizon retail can flash back to KK using odin.

Are there instructions on how to revert verizon retail Note 4 back to KK after upgrade to LP? I've been looking around and so far haven't stumbled across anything.
My Note 4 is my first Samsung phone and I'm not familiar with odin, so instructions on using odin would be helpful too.

You will need to download the firmware from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...mware-firmware-kernel-modem-recovery-t2942937 I used the ANJ5 full firmware then you will have to extract it to get the tar.md5 file which will be flashed in odin which you can also get from there. http://www.droidviews.com/install-stock-firmware-on-samsung-galaxy-devices-using-odin/ this will show you more about using Odin to flash just remember to check your MD5 on the firmware and Odin. After you flash the file in Odin and it reboots your phone will bootloop so you will need to pull the battery and boot to recovery by holding power+home+volume up and do a factory reset as this will fix the bootloop.

If I downgrade my Verizon note 4 retail from L 5.0.1 to KK 4.4.4 will it trip the warranty bit or knox? I don't want to lose my warranty because it's an Edge device?

Tell you honestly , who would want to, My phone works so much better with 5.01

Because there are too many bugs and better battery life with KK
