Short answer: THERE IS NO WAY BACK TO v4.2.1. No way back from KitKat 4.4 to 4.3 either.

There is a way back to 4.1.2. As said before, you should had used the search, but anyway..
The only way (until now) to downgrade is root your phone (bye bye knox warranty), install mobile odin and flash your 4.1.2 rom via mobile odin. Even doing this, you still will have knox bootloader, you cant get rid of knox.
Make sure you select the options to clean cache and data in mobile odin or i will get stuck on bootloop

[Q] Over My Head

Hello all, I will be the first to admit i have not much of an idea as to what imdoing but thats half the fun.... Have a GT-N7000 that has odin mode
download stuck on screen (not uncomen from what i readon here) although there seems to be adifferent reason for each time ????
My phone was rooted & had frankie kernal & I had been having some issues in the hrsb4 this happened, must of some how wiped a system root file ??? when read the log it said from memory extended------ missing. then all of a sudden stopped going into recovery mode & justgot finger on wrong part of button & now hear we are ????
Would any 1 be able to suggest the best way to get out of it (if i can) even if means going back to factory & starting again ???? Help would be muched appreciated.
Visit the stock ROM thread in the original development section, Downloada GB firmware for your region, flash it via ODIN and that should fix you up :good:
you can then continue to start a fresh and go from there. There is a detailed picture guide for flashing firmwares so its relatively simple.
wow that wasquick

Haha, I remembered something and I found it. Look here.
I repeat the message from there:
No need to open a new thread each day with the same problem.
In your other thread from yesterday you wrote that odin stopped at factoryfs.img.
And as a member wrote you bricked your device.

really sorry about that ..
but that took me to the last post !
mother board is fine it is just software installation
roms ect ect ?
are you able to help
First you have to clarify the state of your device:
Did you succeed in installing any Rom with Odin after you saw the error with factoryfs.img?

okay well shall we start from the beginning i havnt had any luck with it soo far battery woudnt charge so i purchased a external charger .. it wouldnt let me back into download mode because of low battery . soo battery has been in the charger now for bout a hour or so and its charging grate ive stuck the battery into the phone and now in download mode with no sweat .. its recognising on odin . which i think its 1 step good .
next i need to find a safe kernel and rom that could work onto my phone .. i dont mind if its ginger bread or ics
but i prefer ics
... im able to get into recovery mode also ??
I will not start from the beginning: obviously you didn't accept the "message": you bricked your device if Odin stopped at factoryfs.img.
So the options didn't change:
a) replace motherboard for complete repair by Samsung
b) use the workaround here in the forum with repartition (and excluding damaged sectors)

all im asking is what is a good rom to use ??? and kernel ?
it depends on you.. if you want stock and stable.. go for any latest ICS roms. JB roms are leaks so there will be bugs in them... XXLSA and XXLSC both are good. there are odin flashable roms of LSA & LSC in general and dev section of this forum
nokiamodeln91
thankyou
i want to install the stock ones for my note before i tried to flash jelly bean i was using ics but yeahh after that it wouldnt boot
soo im trying to go the safe way now
thankyou ..
flashing via Odin is always safer

There you have it all, scrool down for more...
how will i no which stock rom to use ! my note isnt brought from my country
Rom from any region will just work fine.
And still ignoring the fact that he admitted in his first of three threads: stuck in odin at factoryfs.img.
So showing him different possible Roms in the usual threads and tutorials won't help him.
If it still stops at the same step in Odin (and he didn't answer this question) he has only the two remaining options:
repair by Samsung or workaround with repartition.
yes but let him try till he gets fully satisfied.. I am not here to force anyone

Few beginner questions.

Hello guys I just sold my 4S and bought this Note 1 , anyway im new to android flashing and this stuff , ive heard that its way different than iOS restoring which is really easy and simple. Right now i got a few questions , If i missed a step or did something wrong it'll render my device unusable ofcourse , but will it be unrecoverable ? Thats the first thing. Second thing is that is it recommended that i install custom roms? right now i need one's with the Water Ripple effects on lockscreens , or if you can just tell me how to install the effect without custom rom's that'll be helpful because i want to flash official 4.1.2 jelly bean first and then the lockscreen effect. Im just new to the Android stuff and i dont know where to start Same feeling back in 2008 when i bought my first iPhone and got confused n' all
Read around for awhile, its what got me started when I first came here.
Again, read, read read, and avoid asking questions which have been answered countless times its annoying really.

I dont really get anything , extract till tar what does that mean?

If you just install stock official 4.1.2 rom via odin, it should come with the ripple effect.
Or if the update is already available in your country, you can just update it to the latest official rom via kies.

You'll notice that all of the download links are zip files.
You just need to extract the zip file until you find the .tar file.
Get 7-zip if you don't already have an archive reader.
Help with kernel
So recently I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Note GTN7000 and flash it with franco kernel, then when I turned on my phone the bluetooth is not working and it constantly crashes and get stuck (The screen just go green and pink like an old TV with bad signal). So I panicked and unroot it immidiately. But that didnt seem to solve the problem.
So my question is, can I flash it with the original kernel. If so how? and where can I get it. can you teach me. (NOOB REQUEST )
just flash the stock rom again... using PC odin
Alright guys thanks for the reply , i heard theres a way you cab install roms without pc since i just want to install official 4.1.2 , ill do some research

Yep, there's a way to install roms without PC, using mobile Odin, but before that you should have your phone been rooted first.
Well i can upgrade with PC but im kinda afraid .. All i want is just updating to jelly bean official on my note , I searched for about 2 days and learned how its being done but while searching i came to posts showing people crying cause they got their phone bricked cause of kernel blah blah , i also saw at the end of the installation guides that it will get my phone in a boot loop or stuck at samsung logo and im not sure xD i just want to update and im taking it seriously cause i dont want to brick my phone .. If someone can walk me through step by step id be thankful , we can use skype or something xD

Wait a few minutes. Let me get on my PC and I'll give you step-by-step instructions.
Now, do this:
Since you're scared, we'll do this the safest way possible
1.)Download a stock GB rom from here.(You can always come back to this ROM if you run into any trouble).Flash it via PC Odin.
2.)Wipe data and cache from recovery (Press Vol Up+Power+Home when phone is off in order to boot to recovery)
3.)Download stock JB rom from here.Flash it via PC Odin.
OR
1.)Update using Kies.
You're done
Alright ill do this when i get home , hehe thanks man ill update this thread if i get into any trouble

If you wipe, you may brick.
Other than that you should be safe.

Im following this method right now , so i just download Gingerbread (550+mb i think?) and install via odin and then i have gingerbread? No additional steps ? No chance of loops/errors/bricks or anything or installing additional kernels like some people said cause that's whats confusing me ... i dont really want any custom kernal i want jelly bean stock ... if anybody could guide me through skype i'd be thankful
EDIT: Iv'e read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1633938 thread carefully and it says that if you wipe using Settings you will get eMMC bug , i was on 4.0.4 and wiped but it booted normally without any problems (No loops No Restarting on its own No lags) and it was smooth , even though that app from playstore says my chip is insane .. Somebody explain this :S ?

Yes, then you'll have gingerbread. Don't forget to wipe after installing gingerbread.
It may brick. Not definite that it will brick. Still, better safe than sorry. Never wipe on stock ICS kernel!

We will help but help your self first. That's how you learn.

I actually read and made my research already , and also successfully upgraded to jelly bean and i must say , i made a big mistake >.< The performance is crap and the phone gets overheated in a few minutes on both note 1 and 2 ( Its on 4.1.1) Im not really into kernels or custom rom flashing cause i already had a bad experience when i emmc bricked my old s2 thats why i take my steps carefully with this note. Ill downgrade to 2.3.6 and ordered an original battery (Yeah im using fake one stupid i know) and see of that fixes it. Appreciate your help guys , thanks

When in 4.1.2 root your phone, after root flash the custom rom 4.3 you will not have the new bootlaoder and will not have issues on knox things.
But if I'm you I will wait for Galaxy S5 coming on March or April I think.

Thanks Bro that was my expected answer.. and one thing i saw some thread state that internal sd should be format and if not there would be some file/folder error.... so when i flash 4.3 is there anything else i do??
No, for real. Just flash ANY custom 4.3 rom over your 4.1.2 (custom roms don't contain bootloader) and you are ready to go/use
This way, I had no problems... And I've been flashing my phone TONES of times ;p

[Q]Can I Remove Knox from Bootloader i9305 ???? :/

Dear Sir
Please tell me that is there any way to downgrade from 4.3 to 4.1.2 stock firmware. actually i have knox bootloader and i have search alot and can't find any solution for it but i really want know free bootloader.

Hurray !!!!!
I have found solution for downgrade from 4.3 knox bootloader to android 4.1.2 stock rom ...........
I just do it with mobile odin
[root] Mobile ODIN Pro v3.85 .apk
just install in on any rooted custom rom (b'coz android 4.3 is not allow for rooted application)
and copy stock rom 4.1.2 in Internal memory or SD Memory Card
and flash it through mobile odin
It will done with no error at all.

I think you are right coz i can't confirm this coz i have already voided my warranty by Install custom recovery on KNOX bootloader.
so effect of this installation stock rom may be not voided warranty.
