Going back to stock, HELP!

I have a question that may sound simple to you guys but too me its not. I would like to know how to go back to complete, stock. Stock Rom, Stock Kernel, Stock baseband. So pretty much out of the box. I had a Nandroid but I accedentaly deleted it. I just want to flash stock and the click on software update on my phone and be up too date on my carrier. I have the Sgh-T999V Videotron S 3, My baseband is : T999VVLLH2
I am currently on Infamous Rom v4.5.
Someone please help me I just want stock. Roms arent good for me. Detailed instructions if possible.

This is a post I found on here, with some modification from my part:
Go here to download your firmware: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ - Put in your model number under search, it will come up.
Will look something like this: http://gyazo.com/719e8730e6edda5bfce2409cd5a44207
Place it where you will find it, maybe like your desktop / documents, etc. if it is downloaded as zip, extract it to retrieve the md5 file.
Download kies from samsung website as well
- Download Odin from this website: (http://www.android.gs/download-odin-1-85/)
- Put your device in restore mode: (press and hold home + volume up + power when device shutdown keep pressing only home and volume up until you see samsung logo)
- now wipe cache and wipe data
- Put your device in Download mode: (press and hold home + volume down + power when device shutdown keep pressing only home and volume down until you see samsung logo)
- press volume up: to go in download mode
- open Odin:, now uou see a com port added to odin (it's your phone)
- Make sure checkbox Auto Reboot and F. reset Time are checked. DO NOT CHECK RE-PARTITION!
- Click on PDA and select your firmware md5 file:
- when you are ready, click on start and wait
-Look for the word "Pass" in your odin, that means it is done flashing. Let the phone reboot on its own.
When your device is restarting you will see your stock firmware running
If for any reason you are stuck in bootloop after you are done flashing (it does not restart) Do not panic...Simply go into recovery mod and Factory reset, Wipe Partition, and reboot
That's the general concept...if you are more visual oriented or want even more information, go here: http://www.smartphonejam.com/2012/06/how-to-return-back-samsung-galaxy-s3-to.html

Unrooted note 4 change from 5.0 to 4.4

Is there a way to switch from 5.0 to 4.4 while the phone is unrooted or would I have to root it in order for that to happen? Also if I have to root what would be the best way to do so and put back 4.4?

I am totally interested in this as well any step-by-step information would be highly appreciated

I would have to say no... you can flash back to 4.4... but need root to flash

Here's a step by step procedure to downgrade, make sure you backup your internal sd card contents because it requires a data/reset on 4.4. since lollipop encrypts internal storage.
Download these 3 files.
USB (Driver) ver.1.5.45.0 ( Latest as of this post ) from samsung.com/support, search for your device SM-N910P and choose your color, and select manuals and downloads
Odin v3.10.6, from rwilco12's website, HERE
N910PVPU1ANK2 .TAR file, from ViperBoy's thread in generals forum HERE
Save these files to your desktop within a folder called Note4Downgrade makes it easier to find.
Uninstall your previous drivers like old Samsung, Kies of any versions.
open the Odin zip file, drag and drop its contents into the Note4Downgrade folder.
Open the N910PVPU1ANK2 zip file, drag and drop the .tar file into the Note4Downgrade folder.
Install the latest Samsung drivers, no need to reboot your computer.
Open the Odin3.10.6 executable file, select PDA or AP slot and load in the NK2.tar file, it'll take awhile and the Odin program will freeze as the file that its loading is ~1.8 GB's.
In the mean time while this is being loaded, shutdown your Note 4 Device and go into download mode by pressing Volume Down, Home Button, and Power Button Simultaneously.
Hold it down until it starts up into an Android Logo Firmware screen, Next Press Volume Up to continue into the next dialogue.
Once the file is loaded into the Odin program, use the original Samsung USB cable and plug it into a USB 2.0 port ( No, Not 3.0, Sometimes it can cause issues and errors, its do-able, but not recommended. )
Have the Odin Program detect your device and Windows will install the device drivers. Once this is done, a word within a blue box will state this message up top.
[COM:##]
It does not matter on what the "##" is as long as that is reading a number, meaning Odin has recognized and detected your device.
Stop here and recheck your progress.
- Latest Samsung Drivers installed ( SM-N910P )
- Odin 3.10.6 with loaded N910PVPU1ANK2.tar inside the PDA or AP slot
- Device in download mode, plugged into a USB 2.0
- Odin with [COM:##] in a box.
Proceed to clicking the "START" button if you have all of your above progresses done.
This will take around 15-30 minutes of flashing the stock 4.4 firmware, this will not tick the KNOX switch if you haven't rooted your device already as this is stock firmware.
It'll auto reboot once it is done, First time boot up will take longer as it is loading the device for the "First Time".
Once you're done, and you're on the welcome screen of the device, power it off.
Now we need to do 2 sets of resets, data factory within recovery, and an internal SD card wipe through Backup and Reset menu within settings of the device.
Now go into the devices recovery by pressing these 3 buttons. Power UP, Home Button, and Power Button.
Hold it until you see blue text at the top left corner of your devices screen stating "REBOOTING RECOVERY. . . ."
Then you can let go.
LEGEND
- Volume buttons = up or down
- Power Button = Proceed into next dialogue
From here go into the wipe data/factory and reset the device.
Once done, do a cache wipe.
and lastly, reboot the device.
Once your device has been rebooted, skip all the welcome steps and go to home, pull down the notifications bar and select the setting button up top.
scroll down to storage and unmount your Ext SD Card and take it out ( If you have one! ), now back out and go within Back up and Reset under personalizations. checkbox wipe internal Card and factory data reset again.
Once its all done it'll reboot, now you're on the latest firmware of kitkat on the note 4.
I hope this will help you as well as others wanting to stay on kitkat for any reasons they have or if they run into issues on lollipop.
Your guide, simplified!

Awesommmme! Thanks for taking the time Spark!

Glad I've helped out!

Very thorough guide.

bought a note 4 (sm-n910p) from eBay thinking that i can use ssu.apk to sim unlock the device. It was on lollipop.
so i thought i can downgrade to 4.4 . unfortunately while flashing kitkat using odin i got a fail message .After that phone is showing ("firmware upgrade encountered an issue ")
i tried to flash stock lollipop firmware using odin sadly now it show { THERE IS NO PIT PARTITION } error .
the device is on oe1 build

I'm on N910PVPU3BOF5 will that work with my phone ?

Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 (can't get out of retail demo mode)

I purchased a used Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 on ebay. Originally it had Android 4.4.2
When I turned it on the device is in retail demo mode.
I have tried the following
1) passwords found on this forum such as (5444, M729Q16K8546, blue, unlimited, easy, galaxy)
2) none of these worked
3) Can not deselect "samsung retail mode" in settings/security/administrators
I tried updating to android 6.0.1 by doing the following but the retail mode is still there
It will not enter into download mode so I did the following
1) Enabled developer options on tablet
2) Used command "adb reboot download"
3) Installed Android 6.0.1 stock rom (T800XXU1CPH7_T800XAR1CPH4_XAR.zip) from sammobile.com
4) Tablet installed and updated Android
5) Retail mode is still there and I still can not get rid of it
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated
Thanks

Never had a retail demo device so my answer may be limited.
Did you tried/are able to install TWRP ?
If you can get TWRP you can try to make a complete factory wipe (Advanced Wipe > check all the boxes > wipe)
Then reboot to download mode (Reboot > Download)
Install the stock rom again
Here is the link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...p-2-8-6-1-unofficial-sm-t800-805-807-t3074633
Flash it via odin

I have tried to do TWRP but can not get it to work. I did not use the apk I was using ODIN on my pc. I was using a TWRP file twrp_3.0.0-0_T800. Not sure if that was the issue or not.
Here are the steps I used:
1) put phone into download mode by using adb on pc (adb reboot download)
2) In ODIN
a) turn off autop reboot
b) select AP file twrp_3.0.0-0_T800
c) wait for success in ODIN
3) tablet never rebooted so I used these keys (press at same time until reboot power+vol down+vol up+home)
4) Tablet rebooted into normal running mode

If you don't enter in recovery right away you flash it the system will revert the changes back. so if the system start to boot normally you need to flash via odin again.
I recommend you to flash the version i linked, as it is more compatible with MM bootloader, also turning off auto reboot is a very important thing.
You need to press all the buttons together power+vol down+vol up+home, (press power last) . when the screen light up release the volume up button (the next to power button) and keep holding the rest.
also...
You can try one trick that i use sometimes, it will give you more time to make the key combination, connect the device to the charger and press and hold power+vol up until the screen turn off, it may show a battery icon, so you disconnect the charger and wait the icon go away. the device should be turned off now. so you basically press and hold vol down+home+power (press power last)
If you done the combination correctly and the screen became black, don't worry, it is a bug, just wait some time (1 min i think) and press home key, it should show the recovery.
It can be a pain in the a** sometimes... but trust me, it generally works.

Ok, so far so good. It took a while but I got into TWRP. But I can't seem to select the image file.
I have it on an external MicroSD in the root. File is called T800XXU1CPH7_T800XAR1CPH4_XAR.zip
I can browse files on the list on the left. But I can't seem to find the file
Did I miss a step?

Somehow after going through menus, it recognized the file
But when I tried to install it, I got these errors
Zip Signature verification failed!
Error installing zip file /sdcard/download/T800XXU1CPH7_T800ZXAR1CPH4_XAR.zip
Could not find 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in zip file
Error installing zip file /sdcard/download/T800XXU1CPH7_T800ZXAR1CPH4_XAR.zip

you got me wrong, in the TWRP what you need to do is make a complete wipe (Wipe > Advanced Wipe > check all the boxes > wipe)
then you need to enter in download mode. (Reboot > Download)
and flash the rom via odin!
extract the zip on your pc, it should be a .Tar file, select AP mode on odin, select the .tar and flash it in there.

I apologize for the confusion. Those steps worked!!
I think part of the problem is that I did not extract the firmware file. I kept trying to flash the TAR file.
I did a wipe in TWRP
Then rebooted into download mode
Flashed extracted firmware file in ODIN in AP Box
Then the tablet rebooted and was in setup mode like a brand new tablet!! Who hoo.
Works great
Thanks for all the help

i notice thread title says exynos only.. u do know they are all exynos including a102u and a102u1 right?

Oh. Alright thanks for telling me.

Press on app? I have nothing in odin saying that, do you mean ap?
Edit: guess not....i'm bricked, stuck on galaxy logo, device not recognized by pc, holoding power button wont force reboot, nothing lol.
Edit2: can force reboot holding volume down and power but instantly stuck on logo again, cannot power off or enter download, nothing...bricked. Followed this guide to the letter. I assumed when you said app in odin you meant ap since there is no app button. My bootloader unlocked then I went to flash in odin the tar i made with patched boot and vbmeta, along with recovery linked. I used matching firmware to what my A10 has also. Would not mind if i could get back into download mode, but that looks impossible now.
Edit3: Managed to get download mode but had to be so quick...hopefully I can reflash stock now.

Im sorry for that and yes i meant AP.
If you wanted to reboot you had to hold vol up vol down and power at the same time and you sure that you unlocked the bootloader and used the right firmware?
Also tell me the AP and from which source have you downloaded it :laugh:

The corruption was my side, I was using a download manager, but when I downloaded through chrome it was all good. As I said, schoolboy error on my part for not checking md5. I used sammobile site for the firmware.

I have a Samsung galaxy sm-a10. I've tried everything here, even combination files. The error I ALWAYS get is 'failed flashing ROM... OEM lock'
Of course I have unlocked OEM in developer options, but still I get this error in the bootloader.
Any ideas?
