If you have mj4 I don't believe a downgrade is possible
Though you can downgrade from mi5 no problem.
The stock mi3 file is still up at the Samsung update website. I don't remember the link at the moment.

Oh OK thanks bro... I tried to revert once before and it always fails in Odin... Just making sure it wasn't me doing something wrong and that it just wasn't possible

If you're on mj4, you cannot go back to any previous version.

Yup I knew that was previously the case, and was pretty sure there was no workaround.
I hate when they do cap like that to the bootloader.
I'm going to take that as confirmation, as I knew back when mj4 first came out and I was maintain a Knox safe root thread. There were a few issues of people tripping Knox Even on a complete stock uprooted phone attempting to downgrade to run the Vega files.
Just hadn't looked into it since then wasn't sure someone hadn't worked around it.
Though why you would want to go back to mi3 is another question.

Yup, there are a few stock mj4 options (with or without root)
Check the development section.
I personally usually use Odin to flash the full official Samsung mj4 tar.

Just to go Security>Permission control > disable root permission
If you are using any third party root permission managers like SuperSu
Just uninstalling them would work.

so i know ive see ths posted but searching isnt finding for some reason... i had to replace phone and it came with mi9.. shud i do the ota or root with mi9 and freeze it.. since we can root mj5 and use SS.. any reason really not to do the ota?
thanks
Only reason is that mi9 is a lot easier to since it has a Odin package as mj5 does not have a Odin package

Yes pre-update. The OTA updated the aboot with a knox bootloader and when i tried flashing back to the pre OTA firmware it screwed up my tab. So if i can get those partitions i hope to do some magic...lol

Got me the $5 a month plan so i wouldnt be needing this lol. I'm using the hotspot straight from my phone to connect my T217. You happen to have someone sort of a hack i can by pass the 1gb limit in date without connecting thorugh wifi? lol Long shot but who knows! ^_^

It's because AFAIK it's not pure MJ5 but it's modified. We never had MJ5 build on Kies or Sammobile.

I restored to mj5 and then did Ota update to another version which worked fine and then it tried to do an Ota update to 4.4.2 and fails. Thinking of trying emergency firmware restore via kies and see if that works.

It won't. Kies only has MI9. It will fail because of different flash count in aboot trust me.

Odin root may or may not be possible on the ATT variant, only time will tell.

I saw a post from Chainfire indicating he was releasing auto-roots for a bunch of variants today(he didn't mention which ones but I've got my fingers crossed). Apparently the current bottleneck is Sammy's crappy d/l servers.
Looks like no dice with Chainfire, at least for now. https://plus.google.com/+Chainfire/posts/JVxv5298wdU
Apparently he needs the recovery extracted from the firmware. I checked sammobile.com for our firmware and they haven't put it out yet. I sure hope they do.

Yeah thats the part I'm not following. Can't I pull this from the Phone with Odin and send it to him or does the dump function not work on the S5?

You can't usually dump the recovery partition without having root...usually a custom recovery is needed...hence he needs the firmware which contains the recovery partition.

Just curious if we will be able to root without a unlocked bootloader. With other devices I don't recall that being an issue. But then again this is the first one I've had that's been this locked down.

CF root likely won't work if the ATT BL is locked, but the only definitive way to check is to get the firmware and extract the recovery, send it to CF and have him package something up and then have someone flash with Odin, if the BL is locked, then it will either fail to flash, fail to boot, or worse, also once you flash anything not deemed official you trip the knox warranty flag and your without a warranty..

Just use the mj5 restore as long as your not on official kitkat. If your on official kitkat then bestbuy is your only option.
