My buttons have stopped working very well, and my hero won't vibrate anymore. I'm rooted but don't want to take my rooted phone to Sprint to get it looked at. So if I go back to stock, will I be able to root again? I've seen some people say yes and some say no. Many thanks in advance.

YES
There's guides on how to root the latest RUU and the latest OTA update in the Development section.

You can always re-root
Okay, I'm confused. Are you saying that I'll lose root forever, or that I'll be able to root the newer ruu if I go back to stock?

Just to be sure you are clear on what will happen. When you go back to stock by running the RUU, you will lose your root. However, you can just re-root after taking it to Sprint.

How if I needed to return the device would I go about unrooting the phone perchance? I mean I have already restored the device once and it did not unroot it so just wondering.

Ahh yea right forgot Superoneclick has that option there. Not used to the program would be why, never used it with my G2 or MyTouch 4G (went the hard way on those two)

Thanks for all that you do for us, Football.
Man, Football you are the man! You got us a working replacement Best Buy HTC Flyer RUU to revert back to GB from HC when HTC had nothing (still doesn't), now this... Thanks again!
This is important how?
Not asked sarcastically, as a beginner. This RUU is the stock loading tool? Can it be loaded and not lose root? These are the first two questions that hit me first. Is this the way to return the Dinc to stock form?
Yes, this is the way to return your Dinc to stock. Although I don't think it touches your S-off if your boot loader is s-off.
Someone wanna extract the ROM zip for me...?

Honestly, it's never a good idea to run an RUU if you are concerned about root.

True. If you want this, but still want root, use Wildstang's rooted OTA. Like he said, he built if from this (or based it off this, mind my ignorance as I'm thinking it means the same thing).
After Running so many different Roms over the last year, if kinda feels good to stick with a stock rom for a while......with a few mods
Many thanks Football for keeping us up to snuff on the RUU's throughout the life of this phone. Much appreciated.

Just an RUU wont change the bootloader security flags. You have to run S-ON from Unrevoked to get it back on. So it should be fine.

First page of the development section, about 15 threads down (stock rooted Gingerbread):

Flash that, then unroot. Or you can use LGPNST to flash the V7 Gingerbread .tot file. Either way will get you back to stock Gingerbread.
I just used this method and didn't have any issues at all getting back to stock, and I was then able to install the ZV8 update as well.
This may be a dumb question, but if I use the one click root/unroot to unroot my phone for this update, do I need to worry about clearing the caches and removing the rom and theme first or can I just run the unroot.bat file and be good to go?
Anyone have an answer please?

You first need to flash the stock rom, then you can click unroot.
You don't have to clear your cache and previous data but it's recommended.

Pretty sure I just bricked my phone for the first time.
Installed SS, rebooted the phone which brought me right to SS, did a backup, clicked the boot options and clicked Slot-1 and waited for it to finish doing what it does, installed KN0XRAID ROM on there, rebooted, now it sits at the Main Samsung Galaxy NOTE 3 splash with the padlock and won't ever load. The factory recovery does nothing for me and I already tried a reset. I can get into download mode as well.
Does anybody have any ideas as to what happened? Possibly due to my 64gb SD? Did I miss a step?
Thanks.
Press and hold the power and volume up, that should get you in recovery, then restore.... Hope this helps

Yes. Had a few hiccups but everything seems to be in order with the battery drain insanity that came along with the wonderful MJ5 update.

If you have mj4 I don't believe a downgrade is possible
Though you can downgrade from mi5 no problem.
The stock mi3 file is still up at the Samsung update website. I don't remember the link at the moment.

If you're on mj4, you cannot go back to any previous version.

Yup I knew that was previously the case, and was pretty sure there was no workaround.
I hate when they do cap like that to the bootloader.
I'm going to take that as confirmation, as I knew back when mj4 first came out and I was maintain a Knox safe root thread. There were a few issues of people tripping Knox Even on a complete stock uprooted phone attempting to downgrade to run the Vega files.
Just hadn't looked into it since then wasn't sure someone hadn't worked around it.
Though why you would want to go back to mi3 is another question.

Yup, there are a few stock mj4 options (with or without root)
Check the development section.
I personally usually use Odin to flash the full official Samsung mj4 tar.

Just to go Security>Permission control > disable root permission
If you are using any third party root permission managers like SuperSu
Just uninstalling them would work.
