Hi!
I unrooted my phone to stock samsung galaxy s5 ROM (Touchwiz, using sammobiles). I thought that everything would be as if the phone was brand new, but I suspect that my kernel isn't stock samsung, since tv2 sumo app that uses kernel detection says my phone is rooted. (though I have no root access now...) The app won't play videos! Please help me get it working again!
Is it possible to have stock android ROM but not stock kernel? How can I get stock kernel?

You should be able to Odin back to stock. you need to find the correct full stock rom for your device.

Hey guys,
Rooted, installed ClocksWorkMod Recovery and changed the kernel to Voodoo. My GPS never worked before and after these changes and have tried every software hack/trick/tweak I have found on the net so I am forced to send it off to Samsung for repairs. Now I need to put everything back to official standards so my warranty won't be voided. My questions are as followed...
1. If I use the 1 click odin to install stock 2.2 Froyo will my kernel also go back to the official kernel? Will the recovery go back to normal? If not then...
2. Can someone provide a link to where I can obtain the official I897 kernel so I can re-flash it myself as well as some suggestions as to how I can put the official recovery back onto the phone?
Thanks!
Odin flashes you to stock. Stock, stock, Stock. everything stock
Why would you want to go.backward to stock when there are so many awesome roms out there. Your time would be better spent rooting and using Continuim, Paragon, Firefly, or any other 2.2 rom? Odin willbget you back to 2.1. From there you can do what you want after you root and install cwm.

i rooted my galaxy note,
now when i go to software update
it doesnt update it
it doesnt even opens
like it used to give an error that no updates available before i rrooted it..
helppp
what rom are you using?
its stock rom.. inbuilt that i got with my cell
As far as I ma aware, if you updated a rooted device you will lose root. Your best bet is to find the stock ROM you want (and that may take a bit of searching) and flash it manually.

Update using Samsung Kies. LA5 is not available via OTA yet.
I'm now starting to bang my head against the wall. I ave just bought an Orange locked I9305 which I only wanted to unlock to use on another network. Unfortunately I couldn't unlock it as it came with 4.1.2. I read that I had to downgrade to 4.1.1 which is where the problems started. I followed the instructions at the start of this post and made a backup of my IMEI / NV Data which went well. I then installed Odin and tried to install
Product Code: GT-I9305TADEVR (4.1.1) (EE UK)
PDA: XXALI5
PHONE: BVALI5
CSC: EVRALI5
Released: 17/09/2012
from the Pre-Rooted / Original Stock Odin Packages! thread.
I thought this had gone well but it got stuck rebooting at the Samsung screen after the start up swirling screen for at least an hour. I then tried to install the
Product Code: GT-I9305TADEVR (4.1.1) (EE UK)
PDA: XXALK3
PHONE: XXALK2
CSC: EVRALI5
This also got stuck and after another hour I tried to install a stock rom from http://samsung-updates.com/ which was I9305XXALI5_I9305EVRALI5_I9305BVALI5_HOME.tar.md5
This worked and it installed 4.1.1 but when I went to unlock the phone it didn't have any of the menus and when I checked the IMEI it said null / null.
I then though that this isn't too bad as I can just restore the IMEI but when I tried to connect through QPST it sees the port (Com3) but cannot see the phone so I cannot do the restore.
I have tried re-installing QPST after deleting anything in the registry that mentions it, I have re-installed the samsung drivers, I have flashed Param_Bin_I9305.tar.md5 with odin, have rooted properly as there was no superuser app with both busybox and I9305 clockwork mod. These worked ok as I was able to install triangle away and use it and have supersu in my apps.
Does anyone have a clue as to what I can try next as thinking of going back to HTC as I have had there phones since windows and never had a problem rooting and unlocking them
Just a thought I have looked at the box and it says the phone is I9305 PM will this make a difference

After the initial downgrade all you had to do was reset to factory settings to make it boot again (recovery mode). I would suggest installing the ROM that came with the phone to see if it magically springs back to life.
Restoring back ime
I had the same problem yesterday, but luckily for me i restore back my IME by flashing the paraffin with odin. But the rom on it as at the time when i lost my IME was warmalite. Try the warmalite and then the paraffin this might help.
Thanks guys,
I finally sorted it as it must be a problem with the Pre-Rooted / Original Stock Odin Packages. I finally got it to work by flashing a different kernel, I then unlocked the phone to any network and flashed a 4.1.2 Pre-Rooted / Original Stock Odin Package where it lost all its IMEI again. Flashed a new kernel and all working as I wanted it too as it's now unlocked on 4.1.2.

The difference is, if I am correct, you are no longer able to use any other kernel. Stock kernels, as well as CyanogenMod or other AOSP-based kernels will no longer properly set up your modem for you, you will need to always run Samsung-based ROMs with a Perseus kernel.
The same is happening with my device, and I have seen a few others as well.

Oh well at least the phone is working now where as before I couldn't even restore my IMEI, Just got to hope the phone doesn't break then as I don't think I would be able to send it back with that kernel

Right! It happens with my device as well.
I recently tried Adam Kernel which you can download using the Update Me App in Ripper ROM and it worked, my phone worked. So right now you can either use Perseus Kernel which is really good or use Adam Kernel which is far close to the stock one. That kernel isn't in a thread, you have to install Ripper ROM and then download it through the Update Me App if you want to use it.
I just wanted to point that out

As for installing ROMs onto your device, that's easy. Custom ROMs is harder because most likely there are no custom ROMs for your device, and lastly that is not a error, when you root a Samsung device, it makes it so you can't update it on stock firmware so it won't mess the phone up if something goes wrong.

no you are not able to install another phones custom rom, it would brick your device. there are special moments where two phones are very similar so they are able to flash each others rom but with your phone i dont see a brother. as for the error you would just need to unroot since you are rooted on stock you would have to look that up. but i see that your phone is still at android 4.0 there is no updates right now.

well if its offical one it probably patched root. you might not have root now and if there is no root method for that version then you would have to downgrade witch i doubt there is one. otherwise you are stuck now.

GT-S6012 Booot loop..
Hi. I got a Samsung GT-S6012 that keeps rebooting the Samsung logo and doesn't start. At first I got the phone stuck on the very first logo with Samsung model name. So I did some search. Downloaded Odin and latest 4.1.2 official firmware for that phone model flashed it. Everything worked for a few days but then the battery ran out and phone shut down and when I turned it on again it got stuck on the very first logo and nothing. Then I flashed the same firmware again to get it running and when I checked it the flashing didn't really fully wiped the internal memory cause the data in it was still in tact. So I thought I need full wipe to fix the phone. So installed custom recovery, rooted it and flashed CM 10.1 on it. It was running very smooth everything seemed okay but I wanted the stock rom. So I went to recovery wiped whatever was possible and flashed the stock firmware in download mode again. And now I got stuck on the second Samsung logo and it keeps rebooting it self. I recognize that I cannot wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache in now stock recovery cause it gives me android logo within it a red flag. The wipe cache supposed to fix boot loop problem but it's not an option for me anymore. All I can do now is just enter Download mode. I'm downloading 4.0.4 firmware and gonna try to flash that one see if it works but I doubt. Can anyone suggest me a way to fix it? Please I'm really desperate.
I've tried uninstalling superuser and all it has. I've tried like 5 times now the install for the new firmware update won't install i keep getting a android with the red exclamation sign and its front door open, then it boots in to android and says update failed. Help please!
Do I have to factory restore first or somthing? i really dont wanna have to cause i just got this phone from at&t as a referb for my old one that had battery issues and its not fun setting everything up over again lol

Hi buddy.
First of all, I don't entirely understand what are you trying to do. What to you mean with "firmware update"? Do you want to flash a new ROM?

Sadly no, my friend. Any reason in particular about why you want this specific update?
Let's hope somebody else in this forum can help you.
Are you running a stock recovery? Have you tried using Myth Tools to flash back to stock?
Its running stock rom from factory everything is factory right now
I kept getting the dead Android as well. We're you running a KK ROM on your phone before restoring to stock? I was running Validus and tried to use Myth Tools to flash a stock ATT 4.1.1 ROM which also failed to take the update. I then installed a 4.1.2 Bell stock ROM (my phone came from Bell) via Myth, let the phone boot, and then flashed a stock ATT ROM via Myth and it took the update.

I am on 4.1.1 from the factory. This is a referb phone from the factory like not even a week old yet. Boot loader isn't even unlocked. Its all stock and I'm getting dead android.
If you're getting the dead Android, it makes me believe that something may be wrong with the stock recovery. Some people were able to get the update to install using the latest Philz Touch recovery rather than stock recovery.
