I'm looking for a stock firmware so Kies can upgrade my firmwares again. Unfortunately I haven't written down the firmware codes before I flashed custom firmwares.
I'm looking for any version which kies recognizes in my area. I bought the tab in The Netherlands without simlock or brands, just plain Samsung. Anyone favours to help me out?
If you connect your tab to kies what is it says? This firmware cannot be updated? Or This is the latest firmware?

I got cannot update, but after a clean install of Chainfires latest stock rom and changing the CSC to XEU I got it working. Now kies says This is the latest firmware. Exactly the way I wanted it to have.
I was wondering if anyone has found the original ROM that cam with the Droid 3. I had bricked mine trying to unroot it so I could get the OTA latest update. I would upo having to FB 5.6.890 ROM. It was the only one that seemed to work. I know this is the latest ROM out there for my phone. I would just love to be able to put it back like it came out of the box and be able to receive OTA updates. I was a newbie when I rooted the phone and didnt realize you cant un root it if you have deleted any system apps that were on the phone originally. If anybody has the answer or idea it would be greatly appreciated.

If you look through the threads here, the sbf is there.

Afaik once you upgrade to 5.6.890 you can't downgrade via sbf. I've heard it will fail.

Ok folks,
Forgive me if this is a panic post!
I successfully rooted my note this morning, I was on LA6 firmware, Downgraded and rooted without any problems.
I noticed that I only had "emergency calls only" after the reboot, so went into mobile network settings and managed to get a signal on my network (3uk) although it dropped again when I rebooted again?
Right after the Rooting was done, I backed up my EFS folder as stated is best practice, then backed up the stock rom.
I thought that maybe the old baseband version was giving me the issues (I presume the notes modem is similar to the HTC radio?) so I went ahead and gave Checkrom NoteHD V6 a shot. It all installed fine and as it should but I still have the no network issue. I dont think it corrupted the efs system as I can still use wifi and my IMEI number is still there.
Any ideas for a new note owner?
Edit:
-----------
I did make note that I was on Baseband XXLA4 before rooting or flashing anything, is it safe to go ahead and flash it from the modems thread via CWM? Should this help?
any pointers if doing so?

You may have already tried this but are your APN settings correct?
They may change or get deleted between ROM flashes
Also what modem do you have and baseband in the about phone menu right now?
Wow, that was quick!
My APN settings all seem fine. The preset for three.co.uk were still there and the settings inside seem intact.
Im currently running baseband XXLB2.

Then it should work your modem is not old and your APN is fine
Maybe try putting another SIM or another carrier
As ive put in the edit to the OP, is it safe to try to flash back to the XXLA4 modem? If all else fails that is?

How did you root your note? I am on 3 in the UK with same firmware, have been looking around but not much progress.
Cheers.
First thing first...
- do the hard reset Vol Up + Menu + Power *or* CWM Wipe everything. Reboot...
- Still no go, go and download different radio HERE and flash it

Rooted via the downgrade and zergrush method. That was all fine.
Are you rooted aswell? Having the no network issue?

Ok, followed your advice. Hard reset hasnt improved it.
So went ahead and flashed XXLA4 (my original modem) - Nothing,
Just tried the KL1 modem -Nothing! GRRRRR!
Maybe I will try to go back to stock, I was on the LA6 firmware, See if that works.
sorry m8, couldn't help much...
is that phone carrier locked?
i suggest, flash CheckRoom v6 (the most professional stock look-alike rom). If the problem still there, try flash another radio. After that if still no go... try CM9/AOSP ICS

No, no carrier lock, no branding, no nothing!
Just been racking my brains, after refering to a video link posted in the how to root galaxy note thread, I see a chap called cursed4eva created a video using ODDKL1 as the downgrade to root method. Just checked on samfirmware.com and that is Indian firmware, could this cause my network issue?
Im in the process of downloading the lastest Uk firmware now.
If it was the case that this indian firmware was causing the issue, wouldnt flashing checkrom fix it? I didnt seem to for me?
Anyway, rooting around on the samfirmware pages, ive found a directly rootable firmware package (KK3) that was a carphone warehouse UK one.
If I get network back from the latest firmware, im going to downgrade to the above mentioned carphone warehouse package, Root, and try again.
I will post back some results ASAP.
you can flash any rom, but the main problem is the radio. different country got different radio.

I hate to be a pain, but please could you throw me a link to these, they may come in helpful as my carrier wants me to send the phone to them for repair. I dont really want to do that. Their turn around can be horrendous!
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Does anybody know where I can download the firmware to flash my S4 Active i537 back to factory. I checked Samsung-Updates and they have the i537 for mexican. I am looking for the USA version. MF3 is that makes a difference.

Unfortunately the AT&T MF2 or MF3 firmware hasn't been released anywhere so there's no way to flash it. That said you do have a couple of options:
An MF1 version was leaked that you can flash (the thread for that can be found here). Unfortunately this is an older build of 4.2.2 and will not receive OTA updates to MF2 or MF3 from the carrier.
A 4.3 version of stock ROM, MI2, was leaked that you can flash, but current thinking is that you won't be able to receive OTA updates since it's not official firmware. More on this can be found in this thread.
A lot of people are reporting success by going to the Samsung store at their local Best Buy. You will have to walk the Samsung rep through the procedure to restore stock MF3, but it is official firmware and you will receive OTA updates. There is an entire thread on this process and the outcomes of people going to Best Buy here.
Hopefully this helps. Whatever you decide to do, when you finish I would install SafeStrap so you never have to worry about messing up your phone again.

THANKS for the info. I stupidly installed a beats audio driver on my phone without backing up the existing audio driver and when I did that, the blue tooth streaming audio stopped working. I believe the only to get blue tooth audio to work again is to flash the factory firmware back on my phone.

Another option would be to determine which files the Beats audio driver replaced and use a root explorer to replace them with the stock ones. You would have to get them from somebody on MF3, but I could upload them if you tell me exactly what you need. If it doesn't work you're right back where you started, so no harm done.

I can't seem to find which files exactly were changed. (Probably a bunch if files LOL) Below is the forum post that I followed. As soon as I am done work I am going to to Best Buy and see if the Rep can flash the firmware back for me.

So my issue is this, I simply can not put my dang stock firmware back on my phone. It keeps failing when I use Odin and try to flash it. I've tried a few different baseband versions and none of them work. I can flash any custom ROM of my choosing. I'm currently running CM 12.1 with TWRP as my recovery. I have no clue what bootloader I'm on. Not sure how to check that or if it matters. Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Play store find phone info samsung it will tell you everything you need to know about your firmware.
My guess is your on new firmware and from my understanding can't go backwards.
