Return your SCH-I705 back to factory stock (minus flash counter)
Flash these in ODIN 3.04
DO NOT CHECK RE-PARTITION, FLASH LOCK, OR LED CONTROL
ALL ANDROID VERSIONS ARE 4.1.2

Unfortunatley, I don't know of a way to reset the flash counter. Triangle Away may do it, and the manual method for resetting it on the Galaxy S3 may do it, but I've not confirmed nor do I want to try.

I might want this one.
Is there a known way to go back to the rooted unlocked tab?
Yep. Just flash one of the stock rooted Odin system images in the root unlock recovery thread, then flash the aboot (bootloader)
Basically following the instructions like you would if you just bought the tablet.

Triangle Away shows the correct flash counter on my tablet, so I'm going to assume it works, but no proof. I've sent chainfire a PM asking a couple questions and hopefully we'll have an answer
Updated links in OP.

Quick question. Can I perform this return to stock process on my tablet or do I need computer?

Computer with ODIN. Don't use Mobile ODIN as the locked bootloader will brick you. Either way you may not be able to use these depending on what version you're on.

That's good to know about ODIN. I am currently on Android Version 4.1.2 "DoubleShoot ROM", by Dr. Hyde. Will it work on thiss version?
WTF
So I was rooted and customized all except twrp and used flashify to flash twrp 2.8.7.0 and all the sudden i GET Verizon wireless has detected un...blahblah blah please take to a vedrizon store..... WTF is this and why in the heck do I have it comming up after root and everything???and now what?? I think just re flash stock recovery with 3.04 odin right?
nope its ir bootloader sorry man reflash to stock
You will get the KNOX bootloader if you flash this.
YOU CANNOT UNDO THIS, ITS PERMANENT. FLASHING ANYTHING UNOFFICIAL AFTER FLASHING THIS TAR WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY
Just the NG2 FULL stock tar.
Do NOT rename the tar file. Even though it may be convenient to do so, Odin may fail the md5 check for no reason.
(L720VPUFNG2_L720SPTFNG2_L720VPUFNG2_HOME.tar.md5)
This is NOT ROOTED. Its the original TAR file for people who need an Emergency Recovery for their phones, and dont want to wait hours for it to download from slow file hosts.
Mediafire
Instructions:
1. Download and Extract tar above and download Odin
2. Put phone into download mode (power off, then power button + Volume Down, then volume up when prompted)
3. Open Odin (right click > open as administrator)
4. Load stock tar into the PDA slot
5. Start flashing
6. Grab some popcorn because it will take a while
7. Profit
Is this going to update bootloader into NG2?
Is NG2 bootloader unlocked?

Yes this will flash right on a rooted phone. The purpose of this is to go back to stock from either rooted or custom rom.

You will need to re-root the phone after installing this file! Then you will be able to install a custom recovery..
Thanks for putting this on a speedy host. I just downloaded it tonight in under half an hour at my daughter's house, and she doesn't have a particularly fast internet connection.
A quick question - does this file leave your programs intact? Sometimes I like a total wipe (except for my SD card), and start fresh.
Thanks again

Thanks for the reply. I did try one more time and this time I went back in recovery and did the two wipes, went back in to download, opened odin3 3.09 via administrator and removed the auto reboot check. after it finished i manually rebooted and wifi worked.

Now I have another problem. I am no longer with sprint and my phone is unlocked from sprint. I have been using the GOLDENEYE rom on Walmart Family Mobile and all was warning well except for sometimes not connecting calls so I thought i go back to stock with this rom. Problem now is I can make calls with the Walmart sim card, put in the APN settings but i am unable to remove the Hands Free Activation nagging.. Is there anyway to make it go away?

Have you tried to pull down the notification bar with two fingers > long press on Hands Free icon to see if something is turned on to make it show up on notification bar? If turned on, shut it off. Hopefully it is that simple. If not that simple, I have no clue how to make it stop. Maybe someone else does.
I haven't heard of anyone having that problem.
Yeah, I tried everything, it's part of the rom I think, nothing worked to make it go away..
I just went back to goldeneye rom, all working perfect again. Thanks.

Nope. it doesn't wipe data unless stated by the OP that it does. It only restores any apps deleted, or reverses any mods made. Example if you are running Aosp and Odin back to stock. You will get bootloop. After Odin always go to stock recovery and do a factory reset to have a clean install.

Wifi didn't work for me on this rom, coming from a custom mf9 rom. So I odin mf9 bootloader package, and then flashed stock mf9 odexed rooted rom, then odin the mf9 kernel. And did NG2 upgrade through Kies. Now Wi-Fi finally works for me but it's impossible to root. But at least now I got everything working, when I get off of work I can flash the OP version of NG2 cuz at least I could root that 1.
I have the Tmobile s6. I rooted it using the pingpong method and the king app. I then unrooted when it looked like it could mess with the builtin samsung security. BTw, i do not use s-pay and i never will.
I tried to do a factory reset from the "Settings" and upon reboot i get a message that says "dm-verification failed." How can I get rid of this? I did not install any custom roms.
Im not sure if Samsung Kies is still a thing. If it is, download it to your computer and flash stock from there

It's because of root, odin WILL fix it. I'm not sure it would fix DM verify if knox has been tripped so keep that in mind.
Try a factory reset first. If no luck then odin. Odin stock firmware will not trip knox if the k ox has not been tripped yet.
I had the dm verification failure until I installed firmware using smart switch and that got rid of it !

I just wanted to say thank you to eeryone. I ended up downloading Odin and tmobile stock fw. Flashed it and now the dm-verifycation is goine when i do factory reset from within android.
Dears, thank you all for your efforts in making this website the best ever.
I just bought a new Note 5 (N920C) couple of weeks ago, and suddenly it went crazy!!
All apps began to crash and the phone reboots million times.
I tried all means of wiping, recovery, i even reinstalled the stock firmware, changed kernels, still the same problem, (latest kernel is SpaceX-Kernel-v0.1_N920C(official) still no use.
Now the thing is my knox counter is up by 1, and the warranty is void. :crying: any way i can reset it to send it back to samsung, or if there anyways to fix it it would be better as they will take two weeks min to repair it.
PLEASE YOUR HELP......

can you enter download mode??? (down+mid button+power)
if so i can recommend a couple of issues;
1) enter download mode and by using odin download the factory rom from sammobile.com... Select your country (turkey?) and find the appropriate rom there
2) flash the phone
3) with the same mode connect to pc and by using smart switch try to update the firmware (There is an update if i am not mistaken)
4) see what happens
good luck

Brother thank you for your help, I've tried every single thing, and i guess i came to a conclusion where its the google play services app that causes all this hustle.
Do you have any idea how to downgrade it? whenever i open it in app manager, there is no uninstall updates and all the buttons are not accessible.

knox is a software and hardware based fuse if it gets tripped there is no going back.. Even the great developer chainfire (mastermind behind flashfire, cf auto root and supersu) confirmed that knox counter cannot be reverted back..
I upgraded to OJD yesterday, same issue, almost all apps have sopped working, I fixed this with re-install kernel and wipe cache in recovery, not sure which one is the correct solution, just try this, thanks.

I need to get back to stock/unrooted. I have a non working USB port on phone. I have yet to find a flashable zip to use with TWRP that would get me back to Stock unrooted.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I just received a new battery for phone, hoping that was it. Nope. So I do have a battery charger, that is the only way to charge phone currently.

Downloaded flashfire, this will accept the same file used in Odin? Just want to make sure everything is good, gonna return device in couple days for claim. Didn't want any custom software on it.
Yes same file as odin just press big + button in flashfire and choose (flash firmware package) AND FLASH.it will take couple of minutesDont touch anything until your phone boot .it will be better if you make wipe cache and data factory reset after flash firmware from recovery and your battery must be charged atleast 50% before begin process make sure you use correct firmware for your model.
