Updating through Kies is a piece of cake if there is an update available. I don't know what the stock ROM was in UK but I guess early phones shipped with XXJF3. For everything else, read the FAQ!

Hi, xxjf3 was the veraion i had, is therw anywhere i can download from as foe kies the reason i updated manually using odin was thwre was an update through kies but it would not allow me to update, if someonw could provide a guide to rom update alk the differwnt ways would help.

The only official tool for updating is Kies. However if you want to load arbitrary firmware you can use Odin (which is a leaked Samsung tool) or Heimdall (a custom flashing tool developed by myself) once it's been tested that is, it's in a public alpha at the moment.

Restoring to send back

Hi there
I've got my Galaxy Note and unfortunately it has developed a hardware fault and needs to go for repair. I want to reset it back to factory conditions, with the original TouchWIZ UI from Cyanogen Mod 9.
Can someone please guide me in the right direction? I'd assume I just need to locate a stock ROM, load that in and install it onto the phone and all will be back to normal, but I can't find a stock ROM online for Galaxy Note N7000.
Help would be appreciated!

Where can I get this firmware from?
Also, just in addition, the hardware problem is with the micro USB port so I'm hoping I can put the ROM into Dropbox and download it to the SD card of my phone (giving the same end results as transferring via USB).

You can get stock firmwares from sammobile.com pick one for your region. I would also flash from odin pereonnally t9 remove all traces of root etc regardless of fault.

If you have micro usb problem and you are not able to connect to PC then how you can flash with Odin?
Do this

Go to post #2
Download GB ROM. You can directly download on device and extract it to sd card.
Install mobile odin (lite will also work because you don't need root after flashing rom)
Flash new rom using mobile odin.
And wipe cache and data after flashing (this step is dangerous on ics so I have asked you to flash gb rom)

Thanks for that
Two questions:
Could you give me the direct link for the Gingerbread rom for the unlocked N7000 in the UK? I can't quite understand the list!
Where do I get Odin lite from? I can only find the pro version in the market.
Cheers

You are unable to download from hotfile?
On play store mob odin pro Page you will find discussion link of xda, you will find lite version there
Remember you need to flash a flasher file manually (pro auto install) but not. A big thing
You will find it on first few post.

Thanks so much for that.
Now I've just got a query. I've downloaded the add on flash kernel and it's trying to open in ROM manager. Is this correct? Surely it should open in Mobile ODIN? Am I OK to let it install in ROM manager?
Matt

Rom manager?
No need to open that flasher
Install mobile odin just, if you have kernel flasher it shouldn't pop up to install it.

Just after flashing rom successfully, just reboot to recovery and wipe cache and data. You will get completely stock rom.
I am not visiting q/a section much frequently now, as I have moved to note2
PM me if any issue, but can reply in morning only coz here 2am so may not be available after few minutes.
Good luck
If everything okay, then put comment here

I've just PMed Dr Ketan about this, but just in case anyone else knows:
I've followed the instructions and the phone rebooted to the Samsung intro graphic, then went to the glowing Samsung logo.... The phone now keeps replaying the intro motion graphic, then back to Samsung logo, then back to intro graphic, then Samsung logo. I left it a good 10 minutes and thought something isn't right, so I've taken the battery out and put it back in. Then I saw the Galaxy Note logo, then the intro graphic, then the Samsung logo, and the whole process as before is repeating and repeating. I'm really not sure what to do here.... Any ideas?
Matt
Just in response to my previous message..... I misread the instructions and all is now working fine.

Hmm, you must forget to wipe cache and data. After this it should fine.

[Q] Is there a manual way to update the S3 to 4.3? (AT&T phone)

Hey guys,
I just bought an unlocked S3 that was on the AT&T network. It is running 4.1.1. I tried looking for updates but it says I'm currently on the latest available firmware (which isn't true obviously). So my question is, can I somehow update it manually? By downloading the firmware file and flashing it myself perhaps? Did a couple of searches but couldn't find anything related to this specifically.
Would really appreciate the help.
Thanks!

If I were you, I won't go to 4.3 because of knok bootloader.. Just stay on 4.1JB of go for custom 4.4.2kitkat .
But if u don't plan to root your phone then go on. Because Knok will record/count when you break the warranty policy by rooting.and that can't be reset and undo.
Search for S3 LTE android 4.3 manual upgrade on google.

1. Root your phone.
2. Install/purchase mobileodin pro.
3. Download 4.3 firmware from sammobile.
4. Install firmware using mobileodin pro and keep root or not.

Gotcha, thanks for the heads up. My S3 is well out of warranty, so would this still have a negative impact on me if it records the number of times I break the warranty policy?

Thanks, this is helpful. I'll check sammobile.
Also I saw another couple of steps that looked like it would be possible to do straight from the recovery menu instead of through a 3rd party software like mobileodin. Would these steps work?
1) Download the Stock OTA Update 4.3 I747UCUEMJB from here:
2) Copy it to your external SD card.
3) Reboot recovery, then navigate down and choose "install update from SD card".
Press and hold Volume Up, Home and Power button. Use volume keys to select and Power or Home key to select the option. Then just wait until it completely finishes flashing.

My bad, this is the i747.

Well if you not in the warranty then it's fine..
BTW, stock Rom is on the .tar.md5 format then u can't use the recovery to install it. You need Odin to flash it.
Mobile Odin is expensive. Why don't you just download free PC version of Odin that compatible with your device and flash it.

Oh got it.
Yes I would much rather use the free PC Odin than Mobile Odin.
Basically all I have to do is look for the stock 4.3 rom for the i747, then flash through Odin. Right?
Sam mobile does not have the 4.3 AT&T rom. I guess I'll have to look somewhere else.

Personally i would and have purchased the mobileodin pro. Never needed a pc in my years of using samsung phones. From flashing official firmwares to kernels recoveries and all. Its worth the price. Trust me. Everything can be done without a pc near u. Download firmware on ur phone. Flash it from ur phone. Just think of it as a payment for your electric bills. A small portion of it. and its not only limited to s3 but many models of the samsung phones aswell.
Found a link for you bro.

Awesome thanks so much for the link!
Unfortunately I'm on 4.1.1 and not 4.1.2. Will this be a big problem? Do I need to first get to 4.1.2 and then go to 4.3 or can I just directly flash to 4.3?
I would consider mobileodin pro, but I'm doing this for my girlfriends phone that I just bought, and I doubt I will ever need it again. I'm not going to be flashing her phone any more. So free would be useful Especially seeing as how it should have updated OTA on it's own anyway and has not. Which is frustrating. I'm still on 4.1.1 on top of that. Oh well.

Should have no issues as everything will be flashed including bootloader.

Does anyone know what's the latest and simplest method to unroot the device so OTA updates can be downloaded? If odining back to stock firmware can be avoided that'd be great. I'm trying to get rid of some annoying issues on my current build. Thanks.

Got the SM-T817, where can i download the samsung or google phone app to use with SIM

Guys,
Got my Samsung TAB S2 9.7, SM-T817 last week and finally got it rooted. All my apps are installed and i'm running stock Samsung ROM (Android 5.1.1). Now, i know this tablet can make and receive phone calls but... There is no phone app installed on it. It's the Bell Mobility version and i knew that it would not come with it when i purchased it. I thought i could easily find a stock Samsung phone app APK somewhere, that i could install on my rooted tablet and start using but so far, i have not found any !!
Any of you can help me regarding this ? I need a phone app that talks to my SIM card, not a dialer using VOIP service...
Thanks

You're gonna need more than just an app, likely you will need the whole framework.
Try installing a T815 system.img with TWRP.

anyone would have the T815 system.img so that I can try?

Just download the stock firmware and either flash the system.img with Flashfire or twrp.
Make sure you have a backup of your system partition before flashing.
