If you want root you can use a custom kernel that includes root.
http://www.multiupload.com/PC21LDJXIK
Enter in download mode (volume down + power button when the tab if off)
Flash it using odin v1.7, the tar file goes on PDA.
Repartition unchecked, no pit file.
After this the tab will take several minutes to boot, don't worry this is a normal procedure.
After this you will have a EXT4 file system and rootes tab.
If you want the lastest overcome rom:
Warning: this will wipe your data, make a backup of your data and apps with titanium backup.
After you flash the kernel.
http://www.multiupload.com/9F0Z0JU3HJ
Download the file above, copy it to the internal sd of the tab
Then go to the recovery mode (volume up + power button when the tab is off)
Go to Installation menu the select flash zip from internal sd card, and select the zip that you downloaded. Wait until the installation is complete.
The reboot menu > reboot to system.
Hello,
Ok so' I'm noob when it comes to android (probably on most any other).
Anyway, there's rooting using z4root or superoneclick, and then now that I read rafaeker19 post I could use a custom kernel. What I want to ask is that what is the safets way to root the SGT P1000 and make it unrootable?
Play safe
Hello friends Murali & ChevanLemon
It seems that both of u r new here.
The safest way to Root Gingerbread-DDJPA is this one.{Bonus-U can unroot it also.}
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321582
It has rooted my Tab having DDJPA GB.Read all instructions there before u start to root.
ehmmm so what does the different between root and flashing, if i want to root do i need to flash?
I read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899 and somewhat confused.
You don't have to flash to root, but you can if you want too. If you flash a rom like overcomes it will automatically come rooted. But you can, if you want to just stay on stock Android, flash a cf-root kernel with Odin, or use super one click wish is nice and easy .

ah I see so i want to install a particular rom then i will need to flash it correct? say since in this case is P1000, how do I get that rom? is there many kind of rom for p1000, what are they? I google it but mostly come up with gingerbread 2.3
rooting gingerbread
i rooted my gingerbread using doomlordz'
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321582
just run the batch file and wait for about 5 mins and its all good. no flashing needed
Okay i have read the rooting method of Zergrush, this is will be my last question for root. If (just incase if it did really happen), If I root the P1000 then one day I decide to unroot it and things gone wrong aka system damaged, I could flash it and get it back to original, correct?
Sorry this will be my question, I think I get the gist of it, but I just want to have assurance from you guys.
flash a stockfirmware via odin and it will be just like when u bought it. thats one of many ways to unroot it. <thats what i do all along...> there is a program somewherehere that downloads lates firmware for devices name is somehing like "fus updater " or anything similar to it, try and search it
Anyone have an idea to root Gingerbread OMKE2, Firmware 2.3.3 SC-01C NTT Docomo? Thanks.
EDIT:
Used DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit [v4.0](zergRush Exploit) and it works.
Thanks. ^_^
Rooting assistance
Dear all,
Please help me, I've been trying to root my Samsung Galaxy Tab but been unable so far, here are my device details:
Model: GT-P1000L
Firmware: 2.3.6
Baseband version: P1000LUMJI1
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7
Compilation: GINGERBREAD.UMJR2
I've tried so far with the follosing:
Super One Click runs until step 7, it gets frozen and won't respond even after 25 minutes, retried this process more than 10 times.
DooMLorD runs but on every step it states that the route was not foud, retried this process around 5 times.
z4root runs and wether I select temporary or permanent root it will just start processing and suddenly app will close itself, retried this process around 5 times.
I have read a lot of threads about using ODIN to flash custom firmware, but I've also found a lot of replies where process was unsuccesfull and tab wouldn't turn back on. Because of this I'm reluctant to try it, at least for the moment, since I'm so noob I will have a real hard time flashing back to stock firmware.
Thank you all in advanced for the time you will take reading even if you don't have the answer.
Best regards.
Help
Guys, please help me out with this, I've tried several times to root this tab so I can install CWM and then be able to test CM10.
I might even try the ODIN installation, just please tell me if there is any Noob Guide for Odin the same way it's there for P1000 rooting (wich doesn't work for me).
Or if any good samaritan is willing to guide me step by step so I don't mess up with it.
Please, any pointer will be thanked.
Success
Jo guys,
I've succesfully rooted my SGT7 P1000L with firmware 2.3.6, not as simple as using Super One Click, but not hard either.
The steps I followed are the next ones, they should work as well on P1000 and P1000N with firmware 2.3.6:
Downgrade to stock firmware 2.3.3 using Odin
Root device using Super One Click
Flash CWM Recovery through Heimdall
Indeed, so simple to do and your device is ready to flash custom roms.
For the very very noobs (like me) I found a couple of videos that guide you step by step on how to root and install CWM Recovery the way I listed previously, as a matter of fact those are the videos I followed.
This is a 100% secure if you don't mess with the other options, please be aware I take no responsibility of any damage your device suffers.
For downgrading to 2.3.3 stock firmware:

" I have checked with the information and I see that, as you have break the firmware, it needs can be fixed at our service center for which you need to send the Tab to United States. "
thegalaxytabforum.com/index.php?/topic/112-samsung-galaxy-tab-firmware-list/#entry871
check out the posts here...i am androidgeek...need same help on that forum that i am asking for here
PLEASE EMAIL ME WHEN YOU HAVE THE ODIN FILES FOR THE SPRINT GALAXY TAB! I NEED THEM BECAUSE I HAVE NO RECOVERY MODE!!! MY TAB IS BRICKED ITS A GIANT PAPERWEIGHT!!! NEED A FIX
[email protected]
You are broke. There isn't a Sprint modem available to get you back to stock or functional on the CDMA network.
Best you can do is return it or reflash with an Odin-based firmware from the European packages available. This will get you up and running, but you won't have Sprint data access, only WiFi.
Actually, it's your lucky day.
The reason I was so sure about your problem is that I had the same problem myself.
I ran a 'Rotobackup,' which worked for everything but the modem.bin file. I was able to flash the stock setup back on the Tab, but it would fail when the Odin package I created got to the modem. It would fail and I could no longer boot or get to recovery or the normal downloading screen. It would just show a phone and a PC graphic.
It would, however, show up in Odin. No ADB tho
Anyhoo, I was about to head back to my local Sprint store to do an exchange but decided to try a modem.bin file from the Epic 4G.
Worked in Odin and I'm back up and on the Sprint network.
Now, this modem is NOT made specifically for the Sprint Tab. I JUST did this to my device and have not tested it extensively.
If you are broken, you can try to flash this modem, but ONLY DO IT IF YOU HAVE NO OTHER OPTION.
modem.bin (14.88 MB)

How would we flash this to restore a Sprint Tab?
I think this thread belongs in General QA, but...
I don't think that has the modem, which is why you can't boot.
This look familiar?

yikes. its bricked until you can flash it with some firmware. its not available yet... and there's nothing you can do in the meantime.
There is a way. I am back up after I took that picture.
I have a Rotobackup package that works, but only with the Epic 4G modem.
I ran the DD commands with all my apps and settings, so I don't want to upload the package just yet (you can't have my emails ). It is also a bad idea to release a package with a untested modem.
We will have a flashable Sprint image if somebody can figure out how to properly export the stock modem.bin file.
wait i dont understand... explain more
my tab is bricked too.. i deleted the stock tw launcher and wiped.. so now i dont have a launcher when it boots up and theres no way to turn on usb debugging. i need that flashable .tar

You should be able to side-load a new launcher from recovery. Search for a LauncherPro APK and install it via ADB.
I'm making a clean Odin package now if you guys want to try it. It is huge, so it will take a while to upload.

I cant use ADB because usb debugging is not enabled and i cant get into settings. I have the stock recovery installed and dont have the update.zip keys to use it. So yeah I'm screwed until I can odin restore :/
Like I said on the other posts, the modem on the epic and galaxy tab are identical, so it should work! Can't wait for this, thank you.

REPARTITIONING ISSUE WITH HEIMDALL 1.3.0
Heimdall currently has an issue with repartitioning. 99% of the time you will not need to repartition. Failure to follow these directions can possibly lead to bricking:
Do not flash bootloaders if you see this message:
Code:
Local and device PIT files don't match and repartition wasn't specified!
This message means your partition tables do not match the firmware.
You will need to use Linux to repartition with this firmware package. Install Ubuntu. In Linux, you can copy-pasta this into the terminal to correct the repartitioning problem and then flash bootloaders. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17485056&postcount=23

Odin is closed source, works only on Windows, and you can't get the firmware back out once it's made one-click. This is a fully open source stack. It works on Linux, Mac and Windows. Also, you can inspect inside the Jar to verify contents whereas that's impossible on Odin One-Click.
Oh well, I think may phone is really messed up. This is my last resort (Heimdall) still
same problem stuck on vibrant Screen. Tried Odin -> stock , Froyo no Bick -> stock , stock flash to about 15 different ROMS CWM/ODIN/ HEIMDALL none worked out..
but the wierd thing is recovery mode is ok download mode is ok. but
when i flash to any 2.2 roms(odin or CWM) my phone just vibrates then reboots just like SGS I9000 phones when they messed up thiers.
tried flashing GB ROMS then my display is f*kd up its like a TV set with a really bad signal! lol
My phone goes like his http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abdA-7n3kTE
but the Vibrant screen and Samsung stays and can hear tmobile sound.
Good work ,tested on ubuntu no problem at all.It surprised me that a semi bricked phone it is detected by Heimdall and flashed without any issues.
I think Linux is more friendly than Windows with Android phones

I was able to do this because of an excellent set of open source tools. This was the idea behind Heimdall one-click... Linux is inherrently easier then windows. Its just under developed. The framework is all there though.
Try ModeDetect and UnBrickable Mod. They're also Linux tools I designed to make things simple.
so i attempted this method but now i actually need odin to flash a 2.2 rom but odin wont even recognize phone in d/l mode
can anyone help?

Heimdall relies upon Open-Source libusb drivers. It's a fully Open-Source stack of software. Odin relies upon closed source Samsung drivers. You need to install the Samsung drivers again to use Odin.
Excellent! It's inspiring me to start hunting craigslist for another Vibrant for my wife now.
Kudos!

If you are flashing a GB ROM, you need to have GB bootloaders or you will get messed up screen and will not be able to see recovery. I have moved to MIUI based ROM a few weeks back and am very happy with it. You might want to try it. http://forums.miui.us/showthread.php?6078-ROM-LE-Lithium-1.9.23-**Updated**9-27-11-Fast-LMFAO!.

I asked around a bit before creating this pacakge. Its supposed to be as clean and as easy as possible for running a custom ROM. The package was verified sane by Member gregc2009, Senior Member djquick, Senior Member s15274n .
This package was designed to resurrect a totaly dead device using UnBrickable Mod.
Now, this has Eclair bootloaders on it... So you will need Gingerbread bootloaders for Gingerbread ROMs.

Your vibrant is broken or you didn't follow instructions in-app.
There's only three parts to the instructions. Java is updated on my mac. Heimdall comes up as the picture shows. Then, once I put my vibrant in download mode using the volume up and down while connecting the usb cord. I get the the the little android fellow digging a hole. And that's as far as it goes. Heimdall doesn't recognize the phone and just says disconnected. Otherwise I'm always able to connect my phone to my computer.

Hi,
I hope you can help, I have trawled the threads and just have a few scattered pieces of the puzzle.
Can somebody please walk me through this... I have a stock XEF note fully updated and would like to put the german DBT one on there.
I am not worried about backing apps and settings up or perm root and would like to retain the ability to get upgrades by kies or device software update, is this possible?
Would the easiest way be to root and change the code in the file to DBT and use kies, DBT does not seem to be an option with the *#272*IMEA#?
If I need to root to do this, whats the easiest way to do it, market app?
Thanks for your time.
Cheers
Richard

I you dont care about root use PC odin to flash or if you need root mobile odin should do the job.thn to get cwm flash cf-root kernel
Stock instruction - No root
Here's my instructions for complete noobs (including myself). I hope it's helpful to some people.
Warning: I read from one of the members that if you have a custom ICS (beta), this will brick your phone. I don't know whether this is true or not, but it worked fine for my Checkrom v6 Gingerbread device.
0. Download and install Samsung Kies. (to get the USB drivers)
1. Download the ROM file from here using software such as utorrent:
or from directly from here.
Source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
2. Once the zip file is downloaded, extract the file inside. You'll have a file named something like xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5.
3. Download Pc Odin
Source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
Extract it to a folder somewhere. This software will be used to push the ROM image file to the phone. Since the ROM image is stock, it won't increase the sneaky custom firmware counter.
4. Power off your Note.
5. Hold Volume down & Home & press Power button. Then when you see the Samsung logo, let go of the Power button. Your phone will boot into Odin/download mode. Press Volume up when asked to. Now you are in download mode.
6. Connect your phone with usb cable to your computer.
7. On your computer, run PC Odin. Then click on PDA, and select the xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5 file that you downloaded.

Don't touch anything other than the red boxes. Then click start. (In this picture I don't have the phone connected, but when your phone is connected, the box under ID:COM will be yellow with port number in it.)
Downloading should take about 10 minutes.
8. Once done, you'll see your Note booting up into ICS. You can do a factory reset if you want, just to make sure it's nice and clean.

Glad that it's working. By the way, this instruction I posted up there will overwrite the kernel too because stock image file contains everything. Other people are using Mobile Odin Pro, but I don't want to buy that software as I don't think I'll be using it many times. I'm going to wait for rooting mine. For now, stock setting without root works fine for me.
Thank you so much hp79 for the guide and providing the links, this worked perfectly!!
flashing DBT outside Germany
Pardon the absolute noobness, but I wanted to make sure that by flashing the DBT file, I won't suffer in the long run.
will be there any adverse effect of flashing a firmware designed for a german carrier or the german country? Will my Note start looking for wrong frequencies?
Would I need to do a second flashing or load a new CSC file (whatever that is) after I'm done?
Wow! This actually worked! I had a XEF-phone, and this walkthrough installed ICS with no problem at all. It didn't even wipe the phone!
I've seen several walkthroughs, but not this clear and straight forward.

Wow, this sounds great! But how do I do this with a mac? Does is work with heimdall?
@hp79, That is a wonderful guide. thumbs up for this. I saw this guide after I flashed ICS but used the same procedure you have posted.
If you don't mind can you answer one question of mine as best as you can.
If I want to revert back to my GB do I follow the same procedure that got me to ICS.
I ask this because when I go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/ and click "checker" and I enter my phone model and my phone is the Hong Kong one so I select TGY. But I didn't write down the PDA, CSC and modem codes when I had GB. So now I have forgotten them.
So in order to get back to the GB I originally had is the TGY (Hong Kong) sufficient enough for me to manually look for the GB in the list under Asia and get the GB 2.3.6 I originally had?
Would this take me back to the GB I had before I flashed ICS (Germany)
I hope I have written this clear.
reason I ask this is because just in case something goes wrong or I decide that ICS is not good for me right now I want to be able to go back and without me noting down the PDA, CSC and modem codes of my GB I cant download the correct ROM. All these questions I ask is to make sure when later I update through kies it wont stuff up.
Thanks for any answers.

Would I need to do a second flashing or load a new CSC file (whatever that is) after I'm done?

Maybe someone with more knowledge can answer you question, but I think the frequency for GSM cellular band is standard for everywhere, and the phone should support all frequency it can make use of. I know for sure that there are differences in wifi channel support depending on country and regulation, so there could be missing wifi channels in 2.4GHz and 5GHz band. I'm in U.S, and my original Gingerbread firmware was UBKK with Spanish language when I turned my phone on for the first time.

I flashed between 5 different kind of region of stock Gingerbread ROMs using PC Odin on my Note, starting from UBKK1. I also tried some custom Kernels in ClockworkMod, but I never changed modem codes or anything like that. So you might know more than I do. When I used stock ROMs, they all worked right after flashing, but sometimes there were missing apps (or even additional apps) and I just needed to do a factory reset, and then I would get everything to default out of the box condition.
Since I never tried going back myself, I can't say for sure, but I think it'll take us back to Gingerbread using PC Odin and stock ROMs.
It's not bug free, but I really like how ICS is. Bugs I encountered so far - in Amazon appstore, I couldn't click the "install" after downloading was finished. I had to reboot, then I was able to click on that. Another bug, I paired a bluetooth keyboard, but wasn't able to type with it. After reboot and re-pairing it's working perfect. Another bug, using Torque, when there is no BT device, it kind of stalled the whole app and screen went gray. But these could be bugs from the software and not the OS. Everything else is much smoother now. Unlocking screen has much less lag. Remember the lag and choppiness in Gingerbread's unlock screen? It's much better now. Stylus support is much better too. You can display a small dot for your stylus on the screen, just like tablet PC now. So you have better precision. Sad thing is that Papyrus is only for Gingerbread. (Papyrus is like mini version of OneNote to me as I use Onenote on Tablet PC.)
I do miss having root though. Can't install Adblock, can't get rid of the camera shutter sound, but still I would never go back to Gingerbread.
I just connected my phone to Kies on PC and it says "your device does not support software upgrading via kies."
So my previous post, if anyone can answer that I would appreciate it.
Cheers.
Sorry I was typing when you posted above.
In that case I will wait until ICS officially comes to my area and then I will start putting stock GB ROMS on my device to see if Kies recognizes it as official and then I will upgrade to ICS via Kies.
Cheers.

I think it is highly recommended to do a full wipe including emmc dalvic cache since you are installing a totally different system..
it's just an FYI....
wtf I downloaded this http://www.hotfile.com/dl/144991274/0a35087/N7000ZSLA2_N7000OZSLA2_TGY.zip.html from SamMobile official and the archive is password protected.
Anyone know where I can get the password?
no worries I found it.
This is a decent thread noobs...if you are a total virgin relax flashing a ROM isnt as scary as you think...its so much easier and fool proof than it was just a year ago let alone a few years ago
If you are worried about the binary counter or want 2 avoid custom roms all together follow the simple instructions. You can find the original instructions by Dr. Katen in his basic Stock Roms thread found in the Android Develooment section.
IF you have a stock ginergbread rom and you follow these instructions, you will have a stock ICS wo any effect to binary counter or problems whatsoever.
You could then easily root the device with the EZ CWR method found in other threads however there is rumor that CWR is causing corrupting a few sectors of the internal NAND flash memory....one confirmed brick so far....so you may want to hold off on that until a "safe kernal" is developed for rooting or the issue w CWR wiping and LPY is figured out.
im running stock ICS wo any issues whatsoever so far...has some lag backed up did a fsctory deset running very smoothly. Am now waiting for Cyan to drop a new ROM based off LPY or for the chefs 2 put something new together off LPY after the rooting issue is worked out.
Happy flashing

When I try to flash the modem it says failed.
Downloaded it multiple times...
You do this from within the rom correct?
"4. Install either Root Explorer or Root Browser and delete the following Knox files "
I have tried this 3 times now, and I am stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy S4:" screen, with "Set warranty bit: Kernel" in yellow in the top left corner. Will not move past that...

The current version of the rom already has knox removed. I would recommend you backup all your data via Titanium Backup and then do a clean wipe before you install 4.3.

You also also need to update the modem in order for wifi to work. The bootloader should not be affected by updating the rom or the modem.

I don't know - I didn't chance it. I did a nandroid backup, backed up my Nova settings, backed up my SMS messages...basically backed up all the configs I could to my SD card.
Then I used Philz recovery - did a "wipe to install a new ROM", wiped Dalvik cache, wiped everything else again just for good measure.
Then I installed the software update via Philz, and rebooted into download/flash mode (there's an option in Philz to do that).
Then flash the MK2 modem using Odin - uncheck reset clock and auto reboot. When I got the "PASS" I did a battery pull and booted the phone.
When the phone came back up, did the initial setup (skip setting up gmail and other accounts until after you've disabled auto update and auto download apps in Play Store), and shut down. Flashed SuperSU 1.86 and booted again. Installed Root Explorer and deleted all the Knox crap (instructions in first post).
Installed TiBu. Disabled/Froze bloat through system or TiBu. Reinstalled all my apps from the appstore and restored settings and SMS from the saves on my SD card.
This update has the stock kernel, but it works and there are no WiFi issues. I was using the KT kernel on MJA, but only because there were WiFi issues - every time I tried to tweak something my phone would go all unstable and wonky so I just left all the tweaker settings alone. This update is already rooted as well, but you will need to re-flash the newest version of SuperSU before it will work (instructions in the link to SuperSU in the first post). As long as you still have custom recovery and MF9 bootloader you won't lose root and if you do, you can regain it pretty easily.
Make sure the modem update takes - I actually ended up doing it twice (first time with autoreboot and reset clock enabled didn't take). If the modem update doesn't work you WILL have WiFi issues until it updates successfully.
MK2 is running MUCH better than MJA. I had all kinds of problems on MJA with iffy performance, sudden crazy battery drain, and hard crashes when getting phone calls. None of that now and everything is running much smoother.
can we use twrp for this rom .. or Philz only ? has anyone tried ?

Update 1-1-14: You should be able to use any recovery to flash the rom but be sure to wipe all the pertinent partitions first. Personally, I would recommend the official ClockWorkMod recovery. I have had better experience with this recovery in flashing new roms.
Hi all,
I am on a custom rom (Carbon) and want to update the baseband of my I9295.
I downloaded the latest stock firmware for my region from sammobile.com
However I am unsure how to proceed. If I open the firmware file with 7zip I can see the files modem.bin and NON-HLOS.bin.
How is the correct procedure? I have to flash them over "phone" with Odin? Which settings have to be checked in Odin?
Will it work like this??
Flash modem.bin over phone (only auto reboot and reset time checked)
Reboot
Flash NON-HLOS.bin over phone (only auto reboot and reset time checked)
Reboot
Please help, I don't want to brick the phone.
Best wishes, Christian
I want that too
Howdy,
I was curious about that too. Am also on a custom ROM and wanted to update the modem.
Last week I was using TouchWiz and made the update to the latest available firmware, which also updated the baseband version.
But... I just couldn't find a way to root that newer firmware, which was unacceptable, so I had to flash back to the original one, which also reverted my baseband version to the former one.
Maybe I'm missing something here, but there should be a way to do this.
It would be nice if it were so easy as you propose it, by flashing those 2 bins from the official firmware, but how? Which tab in Odin do you use for that? Are you sure those are the necessary files? Are you willing to risk bricking "for science"?
Regards.
Did not work
Hi,
I tried as described above using the France (XEF) firmware ML3 from sammobile.com.
It didn't brick the phone but my baseband also did not change. After that I just flashed the whole stock firmware (into PDA of course). This caused the phone to bootloop on the Samsung logo. I pushed clockwork recovery via Odin and restored my Nandroid backup. Phone is working again, but the baseband is still the old one.
Has anyone suggestions?
Best wishes,
Christian
You're a brave one
It looks like the modem is an integral part of the firmware. You pushed those files through Odin and it didn't change the baseband version, but it must've overwritten something in there, since after flashing the entire firmware the phone wouldn't boot. Anyway, who knows? When I updated, I didn't bother downloading the firmware on my PC and pushing it to the phone, I just used Kies. As I said, it updated the baseband too, but I couldn't root the thing anymore. You can try that too, maybe you'll manage to root it afterwards.
Looks like you used Odin 3.07, which has the PDA tab, they changed that a bit in 3.09. Any idea what the other tabs do? Maybe I should find some instructions on that.
Anyways, a more qualified person should give us an opinion on this, if it can be done or not.
Cheers.

In principal, after I pushed the whole firmware it should have updated the baseband. I don't understand why it didn't. Perhaps something is wrong with my Odin. After flashing it only showed "RESET" in blue instead of "PASS" in green. However, pushing the custom recovery worked even without the green "PASS".
Additionally, I got the Samsung boot logo after I pushed the firmware. Before I had the Carbon boot logo.
I cannot use Kies as I am on a custom Rom and the phone is not recognized by Kies. Did you try rooting by pushing CWM recovery via Odin? This should work regardless of your baseband (at least on the I9295 because of the unlocked bootloader). You can get the newest Odin-ready version of CWM here: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BzJzDM42pkRvRzhHUEtPSGllSm8&usp=sharing

I don't think there's anything wrong with your Odin. Just that, before flashing the whole firmware, you should have reset the phone entirely, preferably from the recovery partition (CWM), as you do when flashing custom ROMs. Or probably you didn't wait long enough for Odin to turn green and give you a "PASS". Or maybe, seeing that it didn't work you should have tried flashing again. The first Sammy logo is present on boot regardless of the currently used ROM. The ROM's logo or TouchWiz logo is displayed after the initial Sammy logo.
Obviously, I was able to use Kies because I was on TouchWiz, as I've said before. After updating, I've tried many things in order to get root again. Of course I also pushed CWM. Problem is I got a continuous annoying popup from the ELM agent (part of Knox) crashing, preventing me to install apps and asking for restart. So, the phone was unusable. The rooting methods I used are valid for previous firmwares, they did not work for the updated one, for me at least. I didn't find anyone who has root with newer stock firmware. Or maybe there are ways I didn't try.
Odin 3.07 or 3.09, nevermind the version, what the buttons do - that's what matters.
Cheers.

Yeah, I had real trouble booting into the newly installed stock TW. The thing would get stuck on the SAMSUNG logo and would stay there forever. I eventually booted (manually) into stock recovery and wiped data/factory reset (as if it wasn't already factory default), wiped cache partition and tried again. It didn't work. I repeated the previous wipes and the f...er booted into TW. I flashed CWM, flashed SuperSU zip via CWM. Knox was behaving really annoying before that. So I had root. But my wifi just didn't work anymore. I checked the new things brought by this firmware, nothing interesting there, I hooked Kies and it confirmed these are the latest PDA, CSC, baseband and then I returned to CM11 and lived happily ever after.

Yeah, man, I've seen that.
I didn't bother with flashing the modem separately anymore, since updating to the KK TouchWiz updated my baseband to UCNE5. But it certainly can be done, I don't know about #allram's way via Odin, you can ask him yourself what to do with the NON-HLOS file.

Unfortunatly sammy has not jet released a german 4.4.2 update....so...i'd have to go for the Netherlands update in order to completely flash 4.4.2 TW. I kind of shy that.... so i consider just updating the modem and otherwise use @alrams CM11 (which i really love). I hope to solve some sound issues i experience with CM11 and the UBML2 baseband.

I used the Dutch TW for KitKat and I had no trouble whatsoever, even if I'm in Romania. The Northern Countries version is also available. I did it just to check out the latest Sammy stock ROM and... nothing interesting there. A day later I switched to #allram's latest CM11.
Cheers.

If U try it, don't forget to use the "Phone" or "CP" button, according to Odin version, as #allram says.
