Hi all, I just got back from basic training at Fort Jackson, I had rooted my phone before leaving and now I want to go back to stock, looking around I haven't seen anything and the one I did see was taken down due to hard bricking. So is there any way to go back to full stock Unrooted.

U Can unroot Your Device By Installling Stock Rom But First U should backup your efs partition and then u are ready for stock process download stock rom from sammobile for your country and make sure that it is for your device and for your country also and then download it then flash it with odin

I would recommend using the LG flash tool and flashing the 10n kdz.

Yes, you can upgrade from the 10h to 10n, but you should not downgrade from 10n to 10h as there is a rollback flag that will prevent loading the stagefright vulnerable 10h and brick your phone.

Hi!!
I need to send my phone back for a replacement. Anyone know how to unroot and go back to original stock v20a?? Can I just flash the firmware kdz file?? (assuming I'll just loose root).
Thanks,

I recommend that you install your local stock rom by smart flash

So, I tried to upgrade my phone that was rooted and was stuck in a CWM bootloop, I was able to get out of the bootloop by installing the DFUSE rom that us for the d959, the problem is now I have my phone booted up but I need to return back to stock AT&T d950 preferably kitkat, but I cant figure out to do so, thanks for your help to get to where I am so far, just need a push one step further.

NEVER update anything if you are rooted especially not when you have a custom recovery. At least not until you thoroughly read through the forum. I find it insane that people will just start flashing things when you could possibly have a $700 paper weight. The att model and the tmous model have different modems. Go here for a really good guide. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2753013

You can't just go back to kitkat since there's no one put out a return to stock kitkat procedure. Your best option is to use the return to jelly bean stock flashtool procedure for at&t and just take the kitkat update again that's the only way.

Post questions in that thread it would be beneficial for you as I don't know a lot about basebands
So with the ChainFire method listed in this forum to root the S6, will I be able to update with OTA updates? First time rooting this way without installing custom recovery etc.
If not able, what will be the easiest method when updates come out?
Thanks in advance
Nope. You have to unroot or flash original t mobile firmware.
To take the ota you need 100% stock plus stock recovery.
Odin back to factory T-Mobile firmware is the only way

Sorry first time with a Samsung device. Will unrooting or flashing original firmware wipe my data?

You can reflash stock firmware using odin and it will not delete data unless you manually do a factory reset. You should be good to go.

Thanks! Have rooted and deleted some bloatware and am waiting for the new firmware to fix the lit Flash LED issue. I just really don't want to go through the backup process for all my data and apps.
Hello,
I just received a phone that I purchased off Swappa, the seller stated that the phone was not rooted and when I turned it on it had a safe strap screen before it booted into a factory reset of 4.4.2. I want to know how I can remove safestrap without bricking my phone. I have no idea where to start. It's safestrap version 3.72. If i need to flash and reinstall android I would like to update to 5.0.
Thank you all for the help

Thank you for the quick response, would I use the stock rom or the rooted rom? I want to return to 100% stock.

If you want to be 100% stock use stock rom not rooted.
i'm trying to rollback to marshmallow using the official package, i found this in the precautions before installation
"2. Make sure your phone system version has not been unlocked or rooted."
1. why is that. is it because their policy against root or is it actually going to cause problems during the rollback process?
2. if yes i should unroot: do i simply click unroot from kingroot app or are there more comprehensive way to unroot?
thanks

not sure how to do that because i used kingroot with a single click
Just install stock recovery then flash the roll back package.
After that, flash stock MM rom for your device.

For me, the only way to relock bootloader is flashing stock firmware.
Last time, I tried relock bootloader by SRK Tool and it costed me 2 days to get my device back to normal, since it encountered serious error.
