Once upon a time I really care about this crap now I don't. Even still I find myself in a bind. I rooted my note II awhile back using Kango Root. I messed up and downloaded an update and soft bricked my phone. I got it back up but Play store kept f-ing up so I factory reset. I can't get play store right so I can't install Joey's root checker plus I can;t install all the rest of my apps. I'm highly pissed and can't see straight cause nothing is working. Can anyone spare a moment to get me back straight?
Alright. I got root but Play store constantly f's up.
Ive worked for weeks trying to get my Note2 SGH-I317 back to working. Ive tried Kies and Odin3 but still nothing PLEASE HELP. Thank Tommy Gunn Latham.

I searched all yesterday and today and cannot re-root after upgrading from 4.1.2 to 4.3. I always do a ton of searchs no matter what forum I'm on because I don't want to seem lazy like some others out there but this is beyond me. I registered so I could make a thread and this is what I have and the situation:
Samsung Galaxy S3 SCH-R530U
US Cellular
upgraded from 4.1.2 to 4.3
kernel 3.031-2025306 [email protected] #1
baseband version R30UVXUBMJA
build number JSS15J.R530UVXUBMJA
SE for Android status Enforcing SEPF_SCH-530U_4.3_0010
hardware version R530U.01
Previously rooted using Odin, SuperSU, Titanium Backup Pro, ODIN_CWM6.tar.md5
I took the phone back to stock using unroot through SuperSU and upgraded from 4.1.2 to 4.3 OTA with no problems. I've been trying to re-root using numerous combinations (ODIN3 v3.07) and no matter what I do the Samsung Security notice blocks rights to SuperSU (beta v1.76) and Titanium Backup Pro so it won't root. This is the message I get:
"Security notice - unauthorized access to a secured area has been blocked. Tap to learn more."
The most recent md5 file I've tried is CF-Auto-Root-d2usc-d2usc-schr530u.tar.md5 but nothing else has worked either. I'm at my wits end and my brain is about ready to explode. I just need to be able to access Titanium Backup Pro so I can shut off a few programs and processes. Any help is VERY VERY much appreciated. Thanks!!!!!
TTT for some help please.

I have same phone. Recently went to Slimbean (4.3.1). I have Triangle Away and it couldn't access root. I also used CF-Auto-Root. Used a root check app, it says I am rooted. Odin also said device passed. Super User says I am missing a binary and I need to root manually. Trying to find that info
If you find anything out please let me know. A root checker says I'm rooted but I can't access SuperSU or Titanium backup as the S3 is blocking it.
Did you get the Slimbean 4.3.1 for USCC and if so where?
There was just a new SuperSU update and it granted me access to everything. I asked if I wanted it to disable KNOX and I said yes. Titanium Backup works and so does Triangle Away. I think I'm good to go.
How did you update?

How did you update to 4.3? Did you use the simple update you can download to computer, or did you use Kies? I'm not having any luck with either. I chatted twice with a Samsung Tech person, but neither one had any help for me. Just thought I'd check to see if you could help me. It's not easy finding someone else on here with US Cellular. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I tried to download the simple update but my phone wouldn't update to the 4.3 so I did it over the air. You probably know but the OTA software update is in "about device." We have four S3s in our home and only one of them hasn't been able to get the download OTA yet. The only bug that I've found is when you start the phone it will show numerous downloads in the notifications and they will come back even if you clear them. The way to get rid of them is to go to the download icon (green arrow) and clear all the downloads and restart. Hope this helps.

I have downloaded the simple update, but get an error msg while trying to install to computer. (1152: error extracting) whatever that means. I uninstalled all Samsung anything from my computer, restarted, shut off firewall & Norton, downloaded again, but same thing while trying to install to computer. I updated to 4.1.2 this way, but keep getting an error on 4.3 update.
I tried to go through Kies. It updated Kies to 2.6, it said Kies3 was for 4.3. When I tried to hook into Kies, it refuses to accept my IMEI #. Says its incorrect. wth. The Samsung Chat Tech told me USCellular 4.3 update wasn't available yet through Kies OTA.
When I tried to get the 4.1.2 update through the phone, it would never give it to me. Even though I unrooted and used Triangle Away, it still knew my sg3 was modified. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. Do you have any suggestions ? I'm not very tech savvy when it comes to these phones.
I'm sorry to bother you with this, but it's rare to find someone with USCellular on here. Thank you so much for your time.
I got the error message too so something is wrong with the download from Samsung/USCC. Just keep trying to do the OTA update and maybe it will go through. My GUESS is that Samsung and USCC stopped doing the update because of a couple bugs or issues. The reason I say that is I updated mine one day (worked), my wife's the next (worked), my son's the next days later (worked) and tried my other son's a couple days later and no update for him. I unrooted mine before the update without doing triangle away so I don't know if that really has anything to do with it at all. However, it does have to be unrooted if you do the OTA. Good luck!
I used Triangle Away, then unrooted. My phone still says 'modified' even though counter no longer says 2. When I try OTA through the phone, it constantly sticks on 'checking for updates'. I'm sure it's because it still says modified. I tried using Kies, my phone will not connect. Keeps saying my s/n is incorrect. I understand my IMEI has been corrupted.
I have started a thread on here for some help in how to get the 4.3 update.
Thank you so much for trying to help me. I will be eligible for an upgrade soon. I just may have to wait to have anything more than 4.1.2.
Again, thank you.
Samsung

it looks to me like samsung are finally making a stand against rooting although i do not agree with this as i use an app called freedom and when i open it i get a security issue from Samsung
The only reason i left iphone for samsung was because i felt like they had something other apple with hardware and i was happy to do this as i could get root access but for now i see that this might not be possible for a while.
i recommend installing a normal superuser.apk and that might work but i cannot check this right now as i am out
i hope this little bit of information did help in anyway
Hello,
I had my T-Mobile Galaxy Note 3 rooted by rootandroid.com after I got it a few weeks ago. It worked fine, was able to use root apps all was great. Then I unfortunately downloaded the Go Launcher from Google Play and when I deleted the Go Launcher all hell broke loose. TouchWiz stopped working, I may have actually participated in this by stopping the app, either way when I got done I had a bricked Note 3. I went back to rootandroid.com and paid for unbricking and another root around $65 and after 2 days Robert was unable to accomplish this. He basically abruptly disconnected from our teamviewer session without explaining any next steps. I was refunded my money by rootandroid.com so all of that is fine.
I did a factory reset 2 times, found the root software and deleted it from my files while connected to USB and until I did so I noticed significant lag issues.
But, now when I try to update my Note 3 software it says I cannot because the device has been modified.
Does anyone know how or can point me to the right place where I can get this corrected.
Yes, I am not a developer, but I believe I need to flash the original firmware to my Note 3 to get back to where I originally started from.
Any help greatly appreciated.
thank you
Mike

I just got this tablet a couple of days ago and I am having a lot of problems with it. None of the sprint apps are installed, and the "preparing network" thing just sits at the top of the screen and will not go away. I want to go and get it replaced, but it is hard to find a sprint store where I can park a 75 foot long truck. So I thought that the issues might be due to the firmware having errors or maybe a bad flash at the factory. I also am unable to update the PRL or the profile. I have been searching for answers to this problem for 2 days now.
Somebody please help!

I think that I finally resolved the issue. I had to do a complete factory reset.
***WARNING***
You will loose all of your data when you do the following reset.
I had to use a utility to retrieve the MSL. (I found it in another thread, but don't remember which one.)
Next I entered the following into the calculator app to get to the factory mode screen:
(+30012012732+
Then in the factory mode app I typed:
##786#
Then I entered the MSL and followed the prompts to reset.
The tablet rebooted, did an erase in recovery, rebooted again, then went through the initial setup and activation process. After that everything was good. I am waiting for all of my apps to reinstall now.
I was going to flash with Oden but my laptop is down now too. So the above mentioned method is the best.
Just so that everyone knows, by resetting the tab to bare bones and flashing the OEM Rom, it will set the tab to as new state, meaning you will have to enter all the information that was require when you first powered up the tab. So, if one were to go to download mode it will show original.
I've been looking around this website and trying to fix my soft bricked at&t galaxy sgh i747(failed root) but there are multiple methods and it's extremely confusing. I've even lost all my data from a factory reset. I've tried to follow these instructions the most because no sd card is required (which I don't have) and it's the simplest:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658486
I downloaded the second cwm link but I can't seem to get it into into odin because none of the extensions are being recognized. I've been trying different methods for about 3 days now and nothing has worked. It took me hours just to get odin to recognize my sIII. Is this even the correct method to follow?
I just wanted to debloat all the crap those corporate parasites forced onto my device but it's not worth the headache. Please point me to the correct thread or whatever so this torture can end and i can be on my way. thank you so much.
BACKGROUND:
I don't have an SD CARD and the android version was 4.4.2 before the brick. i tried using kingo root which rooted the verizon version on my at&t phone and then I uninstalled some bloatware with an app and when I closed the app, the top bar started to flicker and then it closed. I have not found any posts with my situation and I'm beginning to think I'm SOL. Posts have told me that my phone cannot be downgraded because you can't use a lower android version and other posts say you need an SD card. I'm able to get to the download mode and factory reset page.
The phone even boots onto the home screen for the wizard guide, but when it gets to google services it says the wizard has stopped. I'm able to mess around with a few things like the settings/camera but there are no apps.
Will someone tell me if there is any hope. There are so many tutorials out there, but I have yet to find a clear one for my situation.

Properly the reason you bricked it was that you flashed something from this forum which is the international i9300 and any file here will not agree with your phone. You need to report your post and get it moved to the at&t forum where they might be able to help you.
So I never really wanted to root my note 4, plan on getting rid of it in jan anyway, so I downloaded a battery repair app that said nothing about being rooted, and after attempting to run it, it somehow rooted or attempted to root my note 4, so now when I try to update it, it just fails, it works fine but I would like to be at a stock firmware when ever I factory reset it and sell it? Any clues on how to fix this, it has no type of recovery mode on it unless the app installed something.....Ps I work nights so I probably wont be able to respond to any question for the next 9 or 10 hours, ill check back on this when I get off tonight

First, all battery repair apps are hoaxes. You can do a repair, itll find something wrong, fix ig, then say everything is ok from then on. But when you uninstall and reinsrall the app, or just clear the app cache and data, itll suddenly find battery problems again.
Also, it is impossible to repair a battery via software alone. If a battery needs to be repaired, it must be removed and replaced. You cant scan a battery with software and magically fix it like a harddrive.
The app cant root your phone since our bootloader is locked. If it was as simple as installing an app to gain root, we wouldve done it long ago. This also means it isnt the cause behind you not being able to update. Why you cant uodate is unclear since you didnt provide the info needed to determine that. If you arent using an att sim, then tgat would be why. If the update downloads but wont install, then you need at least 6-8GB of free space on internal sd. Other reasons could be possible too.
If tge app itself is unable to uninstall, then its because you granted it Admin privileges, whuch has nothing to do with root. All youd need to do is remove the privilege in system settings then uninstall the app.
