How to unroot and reset to stock - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm look to unroot my Galaxy Tax S 10.5 (SM-T800, wifi-only, USA version) and reset it fully to stock (possibly without resetting the knox trip...).
Can anyone offer the steps? Thanks!

Download the correct firmware from Sammobile. If you don't already have it download and install Odin. Use Odin to flash stock firmware. Seach for instructions how to flash in Odin if you don't know. Link to firmware is below. Sammobile downloads are extremely slow. You may find the firmware elsewhere with much faster download. http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-T800/

I assume thats the one I need? I tried two others from the samsung firmware site but the flash fails. Maybe it was a bad download or I should try a different recovery?

Yep I have the SM-T310. I tried the XAR and BTU firmwares and both fail to flash. Not sure if those should work or not or if maybe they were bad downloads or if I should try a different recovery. Im on CWM 6.0.2.8.

The files that you downloaded come as tar.md5 and can only be flashed using ODIN, not recovery files.

Did you clear the counter with Triangle Away, and unroot with Supersu Pro before attempting??
Also what method is your ROM setup for... Odin or TWRP?
I have a modded recovery loader so, what I am able to do will be different in results beyond the basics.

Cool, but any idea why there's no USA country code in that list? Or is one of those the ones I'm supposed to use?
Thanks.
I don't no why there is no USA version
But you can use the XSA ( australia) or BTU (united kindom)

This isn't for our device specifically, but it's all the same. Kies, tools, emergency recovery.
Just make sure you allow kies to install all the drivers

[Q] Sgh-i747 official 4.4.2

Hey, so I have a Sgh-i747 (s3 American version).And it seems like at&t is starting to roll out the 4.4.2 for almost two months now and I never had the update. So I went to the Samsung firmware site to check if I can download the 4.4. 2 from there and just flash it by Odin, I did find the firmware there but it said it's for. Canadian model). So I am asking if I can flash my phone with that firmware? I hope to get an answer.
Everything you need is in the General section. There are 3 or 4 threads that will help you update. Enewman17's seems to have a good success rate so id start there.
Can you give me a link please?

There's another by enewman17 right next to it (for now) that would also work.

Do you know if Newman's method trips Knox or the warranty bit? I am trying to get back to 100% bone stock so I can get the OTA update, but I want to leave my warranty intact at 0.
Thx I'll give it a try right away!
Does it include the latest TouchWiz?

You'll need Odin if you don't wanna trip.

Using ODIN doesn't trip it? Didn't know that, good to know. What version of ODIN do I use with enewman's 4.3 tar file in order to not trip my warranty bit?
Use Odin 3.07 or 3.09.

I used ODIN 3.07 and flashed enewman's 4.3 tar file with it and it worked like a charm! I am back to 100% bone stock now and can get the OTA. It didn't trip my warranty bit or anything else. Everything in download mode says "official" and 0. Thanks DocHoliday!

[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

Downgrade from 4.4.4 to 4.4.2

Please I tried to downgrade my galaxy S4 from t-mobile and I bricked it(already fixed it), but I need to downgrade it to unlock it. I tried every way I found here but I keep bricking it
I believe you are suppose to flash the 4.2.2 modem, root, the run regionlockaway, and reflash current modem.

I'm having trouble finding the modems
Confirm the model number in download mode, then do a google search for the appropriate firmware, extract the modem, and flash it?
I'm not sure but you maybe able to use other m919 roms for extract the modem to unlock the phone.

Yep, I re-flashed the stock firmware and it works?
After downgrading the modem, I always recommend reflashing the latest rom from sammobile.com in Odin followed by a full wipe in stock recovery.

Here's regionlockaway
Here's the link:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_V3a99HuE-tNzUtaEVTN0hDRkE/view?usp=sharing
Both have the same files.
1. Unzip and flash 4.2.2 modem with Odin(CP Button).
2. Open RegionLockAway and follow the instructions.
3. Once RegionLockAway finish flash 4.4.4 modem.
It's better if you're in stock(if you wanna be sure nothing happens).
