I had my samsung galaxy sch i545 rooted! But verizon kept pushing for the new update i unrooted and flashed back to the original stock firmware, and stored my original recovery! And then i factory reset! So everything was back to normal. I even ran the triangle away to set my flash counter to 0? I try to update, it boots into recovery and then when its updating it says error and restarts my phone. And it says update unsuccessful! Please help! What should I do next? I heard this was a good place to ask questions and the administrators and the moderators were really helpful! Please help guys!

Make sure you using stock cable that come with phone. ..try different usb port re download again kies power down and up computer. ....make sure there is no antivirus and firewalls running in background. ...make sure you don't have ticked nothing in developer menu. ......
And try again. .....
Verizon also pulled new update that was making problems with receptions bug...so call first and confirm that you getting one without reception bug that was pulled by Verizon not long ago

Try using kies. ...Over the air ...don't
Open kies conect phone to computer let kies find your phone. ..then from there use kies to find update for you
Last thing is to use stock 3c recovery and do hard reset there then boot let it go for 10 minutes pass all settings don't setup Google play store.....connect to pc to be recognized by kies and try again

How did you make out? I have the same problem and have spent all day searching for a solution. I am close to just buying a new phone out of contract because I can't spend anymore time on it. At this point I am assuming that as a result of rooting, even though I have removed it the OTA update continues to see something and so it won't complete it's update. I even installed the "full wipe" original stock ROM via Odin but no such luck.

I'd also like to know.
Not sure what you guys are doing but if you installed the MK2 no wipe image and did not try to root, the update should go fine.
Hey guys, i had this exact same issue with a stock s4, never been rooted. called verizon and they told me to go to a samsung kiosk inside a best buy store. i had done all the usual stuff, including hard resets. The guy at the samsung store decided it would be best to do a Binary Wipe which wipes every little thing on the phone (take out your sd card beforehand). It worked, i had the update on the sd card and it took after the binary wipe. it is the lowest level wipe you can do. as far as i know only the samsung people can do it... they wipe it and restore stock 4.3 verizon to your phone, then the update will take.

[REF] Recover AT&T Note to GB Factory with Kies (Will NOT trip your flash counter!!)
Yes, I'm aware that this isn't the accepted way, but it DOES work even with a custom rom & rooted!!
You MUST have Kies full installed on the desktop/laptop and make sure you're updated to the latest version.
1) Boot your note into download mode
2) Connect your Note to the laptop with factory USB cable
2) Launch Kies on your desktop (full version)
4) Choose Tools, Firmware upgrade & initialization
a) While in download mode, pull battery and enter the S/N & model name (ALL CAPS!!)
b) It will prompt to initialize to original settings. Click "YES"
c) It will prompt to initialize the latest version. Click "YES"
d) It will download the firmware upgrade components (DO NOT DISCONNECT THE DEVICE!!)
5) It will prompt for firmware upgrade and initialization.
a) Click check box for reading above information
b) Click your choice if you want your information saved on Samsung Kies corporate servers (I choose WITHOUT saving).
Just kick back, wait and the phone will update to the original out of box software with the latest updates already applied. No issue with anything, no tripping of the flash counter, and Samsung/AT&T knows now different (if you tripped the counter back before performing this, or performed the process of installing CWM recovery through ADB as to NOT trip the flash counter when changing recovery).
This is the EXACT process I did, and had an AT&T tech verify and it's not detectable I was rooted, and was running a custom ICS ROM. Now, I will qualify that I DID the Recovery installation with ADB so that I didn't trip the counter with the Recovery installation. So if they are able to check the binary information to detect modification even with flash counter reset, that's out of my hands and can't confirm or deny.
This is ONLY to reset to factory GB Latest & greatest for performing OTA/Kies update of ICS when it's finally released.
Tagged, thanks.
Thanks for this. I just got my first android phone a few days ago and needed to go back to stock to return for a new one. I upgraded to ics, then recently flashed back to stock, but my baseband never changed and I was stuck with two on the counter. I'm super new to this and had an iPhone for 5 years, but I think I download the new cwm so I can reset the counter, then do the emergency download with kies and I should be back to stock out of the box, right? I just hope I can find an easy guide to get the updated cwm, I'll search in.the morning. Thanks again for the kies suggestion.

Thanks a lot. I've been looking for this, because event when i flash my note back to original rom, kies still didnt regconize the note.

I can say with a Rogers note all I got was some asian text and an ok button
Worked perfectly! Thank you so much I just had to get cwm, reset the flash conter and let kies do all the work.

Hi Agoat, I saw your sig you are on UCLE5 RC1, can you run touchwiz on this? i am running this rom from AppDroid too, but don't have touchwiz, can't run weather or add task widget to home screen. besides, this rom works perfectly smooth.
thanks
ever since i did this my phone keeps popping up communication error for looking for an update... is there a way to stop this from popping up????
Um, that's interesting because I've never run into this issue. Are you running the I717 on AT&T?? This has only been tested by me on the AT&T Branded US Galaxy Note.
It was confirmed by many (as seen on the thread) to work on the AT&T Note. Did you follow the directions completely? If you are able to get into download mode on the device, I'd say do it again and make sure you didn't end prematurely.

Here's the deal:
So I tried to help my girl get official ICS last nite.
Installed kies (Win7 32bit home edition) and plugged in the Note, but kies said it can't install the upgrade for some reason. No other information. This was as soon as I plugged in the phone.
The phone is 100% stock. (ATT version)

It wipes the phone?
I guess you didnt get the memo?
Yes it wipes the phone.
Put the phone in download mode first, then open Kies and do the following.
Get your serial number and model number(behind the battery) and put it into the Firmware upgrade and initialization under the Tools Menu. Then it upgrades and wipes the phone.
I suggest you backup via Kies or Nandroid first though.

Well I'm on note #3 since the update was released. I'm thinking no OTA so there was no blame to place on ATT. Today at the ATT service center I was told that they had seen multiple phones that day for the same issue. The strongly advised against updating, or at least using the route Samsung offers. I also followed the directions to the letter and bricked two phones. Ill chalk it up to a bad DL of kies last Thursday night. The Samsung tech that I spoke with last night told me that it wasn't a systemic issue on the note and that she would make a "note" of it. The Samsung tech that I spoke with this past weekend told me to not try to update to ICS until at least today. He advised me to wait longer if possible.
The ATT service center said just the opposite and directed me to watch the forums They have been very helpful in replacing phones, next day shipping in my case since the SC didn't have them in stock. Samsung asked me to send it back to them for repair and said I would be without a phone for 5-7 business days plus shipping? I don't consider that acceptable being that I have both insurance and a warranty on a phone that was purchased 36 days ago. I wont be attempting the upgrade on this new phone for sometime, Id rather have a working phone for business at this point. I'm sure its a very simple process and I'm doing something incorrectly, like not putting it in DL mode. Either that or I have techherpes and shouldn't be touching any HW.
Good day,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 phone, which I recently unrooted. I followed this guide to unroot:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1710613
I used Odin3, v1.85. The file I put in the PDA section was downloaded from the site in the guide and was the following: I9300XXALF5_I9300PROALF1_I9300XXLF5_HOME.tar.md5
I did run into some problems while attempting to unroot though, a few times I started the process in Odin to find it had failed after the first quarter of the bar was filled. I think this might have had something to do with my pc ejecting my phone whenever it felt like, but I'm not completely sure (the rooting was done on a different pc by someone else). Of course, because of that I couldn't properly start my phone and it gave me an error message about the firmware not being correctly installed. I persisted and eventually I got it working, though no idea how I managed.
Now, before the root and during the root I had Android 4.1.1, but after the unrooting it went to 4.0.4. Whenever I try to search for an update, either via WiFi, 3G or even Kies on the pc, it says there aren't any new updates. Device status is normal, and custom binary download is No. Bought my phone in Belgium, if that matters any.
Screenshot of the about screens in attachment. Is there anything I can do to get it to update, preferably without the use of Odin?
Please be gentle, I'm a complete noob when it comes to this and I'm not looking to reroot.
Thank you for reading through!
just connect your phone with computer and update via samsung kies
else, download the firmware from http://sammobile.com/firmware/ for your country and flash using pc odin

Thanks for taking the time to reply! I however already tried with Samsung Kies, and it says there isn't an update there too. I tried finding the latest firmware on the site you linked for unrooting, and it came up with the file I mentioned in the first post, which resulted in 4.0.4. I'm kinda hesitant to flash again, since I encountered problems when I unrooted.
EDIT: Just tried with Kies again, and it tells me it is the latest firmware. It says something like this:
PDA:LF5/PHONE:LF5/CSC:LF1 (PRO)
Root your phone again
And install mobile odin
Then wipe data and cache using Mobile Odin
It will factory reset
Then you will see that your device status becomes normal
Then go to super su settings and choose full unroot

Guess I'll post it here for people who happen upon the same problem.
Got it fixed, using this guide:
androidcritics.com/how-to-update-samsung-galaxy-s3-to-official-android-4-1-1-jelly-bean-xxdlib-firmware/
Basically just used Odin to flash the file downloaded there (I9300XXDLIB_I9300OXFDLI1_I9300XXDLIB_HOME.tar.md5) on the phone, worked after the second try. I think my problem is that my computer decides to eject my phone whenever it feels like.
After flashing 4.1.1, it found and installed 4.1.2 update, so I think it's fixed now.
Thanks to everyone who helped. Cheers!
I'm trying to return to stock on my Verizon Note 2. I'm currently on AOKP 4.2.2 and have TWRP. I tried to use the Odin method shown by Adam but my phone is not being seen via USB. I've tried to uninstall all drivers and reinstall. Tried again by using Kies as suggested by many.
Can I return to stock just by using TWRP? Are there steps or a walk through on how to do this? Links? I'm thinking I could go into TWRP, wipe the cache, delvik cache, and then factory reset. Then install, "flash" a update.zip and return to stock. Would this work or get stuck?
Also, not sure where to get the update.zip I'd need. I have the OTA stock downloaded from Adam tutorial...not the "alternate" but it's only one file. Would I just zip that, rename to update.zip and try to flash?
Please help!! Again I'm unable to do this through usb plug in so I really need another route.
Thank you in advance for any help!
Do not try renaming the file and flashing. Nothing good will come of that.

I read through that one too. Tried all of that. ODIN will not work. My phone is not being detected through USB. Again i've tried all the reinstalls of the drivers etc.... Tried different original cords. nothing.
I need a way to return to stock through my device. Maybe load to the external sd and flash. Can this be done?
Not sure what file to flash though.
If odin isn't seeing your phone then something isnt installed properly. Probably drivers. Im not too sure about it because the only time I used odin was when I first rooted and I haven't touched it since.

My phone was a trade off for a iPhone 5.. Best move ever but the last owner had somewhat messed up the phone modding it. I did a full wipe and the previous owner had never done any backups. I wanted to start fresh. All that being said I wanted to start back fresh at stock and then do any modding that I preferred from a new state.
I just flashed MeanBean after reading back through the posts to my question. I realized I had not tried using odin while on a TW based ROM.
I'll see if this helps.

I too am having issues with my Note II not being recognized by Odin on my PC. I know my drivers are installed and I have a good connection with my USB cable/port since when I plug in my phone when powered on, I can see the phone and card just fine. However, when going into Download mode and running Odin 3.07, Odin isn't seeing my phone.
I discovered this while looking into another situation from another thread. While I'm not currently attempting to return to stock and aren't overly concerned about returning to stock since I could probably do it with Mobile Odin if push comes to shove. I am concerned, however, that if I'm unable to use MO and my phone isn't being recognized by Odin from my PC then I might be up the proverbial creek with a paddle.

Try using ODIN and flashing the stock tar file. That should set you straight. You should be able to find what you need in the Android Dev section. If you are new to ODIN, open the app on your pc, click PDA, find the stock tar file, ensure "repartition" is unchecked and hit start. That should get you back to 100% stock. Do any applicable system updates and attempt the root process again. If you have any troubles look for qbking77's Note 3 root guide. Good luck. If all else fails I'd try a return and hope they don't know how to check for the flash flags.

Try using ODIN and flashing the stock tar file. That should set you straight. You should be able to find what you need in the Android Dev section.

Someone found a way to fix the galaxy 3's soft brick problem that was like this over at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1840030 I'm hoping someone creates those files for the Note3 so I can try it.

I had the same problem, flash CF-Auto-Root again
this happened on my 2nd day with my new note 3. had to exchange it. There was no way to fix it.
I had the same problem but I was able to get my phone to boot into recovery. I did a wipe data/factory reset and it worked afterwards.

Bricked note 3/help
Tried to root my NOTE 3 through Odin and instructions here and is bricked stuck at the screen below.. Anyone can help or recommend a repair place in NYC?
I had the same problem, except my problem was when I tried to restore nandroid back up....the root, and flashing of the rom went well.
I went to restore my nandroid back up, and it started bootlooping. This was the 2nd time this issue occurred, the first time downloading the tar resolved it. The second time it did not.
Nice dude..glad all worked out!

I can help you if you still need it
solved it by accident
Thanks so much for your reply and availability to help but after some hours of despair I read somewhere that Kies would be help and fiddled with the settings a bit and realized that I could download and restore factory settings through the software... Such a relief not ending up with a $800 paperweight!!! (and tought me a lesson not to trust just about any rooting direction posted here!!!)

As I'm on a Mac will try to reconstruct the scene
On Kies go to Tools and choose Firmware Upgrade and Initialization
After some prompts for inputing first the Model number and the S/N, Kies will start downloading the software and will prompt you when to connect your phone..
Very easy....

Where did you find the serial number? The numbers on the box and under the battery don't work for me so I can't get past that screen.

Well, that's exactly what I used what was below the battery and the box... without those you can't really move forward... does it give you an error when you log in with those?

Yeah says they're invalid serial numbers. I asked a buddy of mine to give me his numbers and I get the same error with his. I did the DEC number as both full XXXXXXXXXXXXX and XXX XXX XXX XXX etc ...
Neither work. Also tried with HEX. Guess I'm just seriously SOL.
