I have the Samsung gear s from at&t.
I rooted it when I first got it. But reset it shortly after.
I noticed today when I go to the gear s settings to check for update.
It tells me "gear is modified, no updates available" is there a way to reset the watch like Odin flash to remove root and any modifications?
Probably to do what ya said, odin flash it back to stock...
I'm gunna google unroot for Gear S real quick brb.

Only relavant thing that showed up was this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s/help/unroot-sm-r750s-t3196800
But I'd say since factory reset didn't unroot it to try odin flashing the firmware to be on the safe side and official.

Just in case ya don't know how, covering all the bases...
And the latest AT&T Gear S Odin Firmware
http://samsung-firmware.org/download/Gear-S/30ca/ATT/R750AUCU1AOB1/R750AATT1AOB1/
Flashing ODIN worked and now checks for updates. The factory reset removes root but if you dont flash the original firmware back then its still not stock

Hey, so I heard about AT&T and Telus getting upgrades for their Notes. I decided to check Kies to see if there was an update for my Note (Rogers) and sure enough, there was one. I clicked update and the program froze, and after waiting a couple minutes I decided to close Kies. When I re-opened Kies, the update was no longer available. How do I get it back? Thanks.
UPDATE: I tried for the hundredth time and I finally got it back. After I clicked update there was a message saying "Cannot access model information server" or something. What does that mean?
It means go to samfirmware.com and try there.

After I download the file, what do I do?
Install Odin software ( its legit from samsung ) then you will use the .tar.md5 file from samfirmware.com in the PDA slot of Odin, put phone in download mode, connect to pc with charger cable, then flash th new rom.

Odin guide from an expert.
I need some serious help. I have no idea what's going on. I was coming from CR se 3.1 to Jellybeans 20 so I decided to do a data wipe and clear everything and then my phone wouldn't turn on. I couldn't even access recovery. I gave up and decided to do a clean Odin restore with the root 66 stock system md5 and new pit file but I no longer have a recovery installed. I was going to do the casual root again but my phome will not connect to any computer. When I connect it just charges I don't get a new device found or anything. I tried connect it to another computer too and it just did the same thing. All I need is for my phone to connect to my computer so I can restore it to default, install a recovery/root, and install jelly beans. But nothing is corresponding with me. Please someone help me. I'm really desperate for some help right now. Please. I'm freaking out. I don't know what to do. Anything is appreciated. If there's any way you can pm me so we can chat that would be cool too. I'm just freaking out and have been for the past 4 hours.
When did you root your phone? If you originally used casual on the old baseband then flashed roms on the vramc3 modem you need to update casual to the one that unlocks the new modem. I don't see how you could've bricked the phone like that though. Does anything show up on the screen when you try to boot into recovery?
hmmm did you try doing a full odin back to stock and locked?

The modem has nothing to do with rooting, unlocking, or anything of that nature. I believe you are referring to the firmware version correct?

Sorry guess I don't understand the right names for all of it but yes, the different firmware versions then that casual is based on.
Somebody played with My GS3. When I collected it, it was showing encrypting for much while till I got pissed off and pulled out the battery. Now the phone is stucks at the boot logo, and flashes. Recovery mode is not entering, but download mode works, but always fail in Odin. Sorry for my bad English

Thanks. It's on 4.0.4. I downloaded a CWM and tried to flash it through Odin, but it fails showing I needed a. PIT file, so I downloaded the file and the Odin shows fail with red signal and the output shows repatition failed.

Thanks for your help! I appreciate. Going to try it
God morning.
I have a Galaxy S4. I installed safestrap and some custom roms (kept my stock rom). I know want to remove all this and go back to stock. I have done a complete unroot in SuperSU and uninstalled (or so I thought), SafeStrap. However, when I restart my phone, safestrap is still booting and I get a lock on the screen with the word Custom underneath. I want to get rid of all of this and just go back to stock. It's Verizon S4 on MK2.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

You can try just uninstalling SafeStrap like any other app you have. Or flash the mk2 stock firmware in Odin.
Going the Odin way would actually be the better and easier way to go most likely. Sometimes the custom screen still lingers even after removing SafeStrap.

The first post in that thread explains what you'll need to do. Its a lot easier than a lot of people think.
- Download the USB drivers to your computer ( I believe they're linked in first post)
- Download the stock firmware zip in 1st post ( either full wipe or no wipe )
-download Odin from 1st post
- extract the .tar file from the firmware zip file
- open up Odin
- make sure you see it shows Device Connect when you plug your phone in
- load that .tar file into the PDA slot in Odin or AP slot depending on the version of Odin .
- make sure Re-Partition is NOT checked.
- hit start and wait for it to finish.
Again that's all said in the op.

There are some great videos on there.
Including how to unbrick an S4 and enter download mode. Your essentially unbricking your phone even though its not technically a brick.

Everything's working. Thanks for the help
Just out of curiosity, why did you want to go back to stock? I'm thinking about rooting but unsure on my new phone....
G930A_PJ4_Odin_Files
Do you need em? You can just Odin the PI2 and take the OTA. Or is this a placeholder for your posting them?
That's a link, havnt tested but I downloaded them last night.
Anybody tested this?
Yep I flashed them the other day in my failed attempt at using the Verizon beta. They flashed properly and immediately ota'd to November. (Pj4 is october)
Anyone have a clue why I'm getting this with these files?:
<ID:0/005> FAIL! Model dismatch fail
I'm on the -eng kernel from the root bounty thread. I want off of it.
Yes, it's the SM-G930A (AT&T non-edge S7). The only thing I've done is the -eng kernel for root.

Belay that. I switched to this odin: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/odin-3-12-3-worlds-att-s7-odin-firmware-t3401470
I also wiped system and wiped cache 2-3 times... then immediate into DL mode.... and poof. It installed and is booting now. Odin at least says it was successful..... and yet again here I am thanking muniz_ri. I keep bumping into you on the different Samsung root threads... (first the S5 Active, now here...) keep up the excellent work, good sir!
