Just use Muniz_ri method then install the NCE flasher apk. Then it'll take you to SS, flash your new ROM or mods or whatever then just flash the OC4 kernel and you're back in the game.

Couldn't you just unzip the Twisted Lollipop ROM .zip file and replace the boot.img that they have with the stock OC4 one, re-zip it up and flash via FF?
Seems a lot simpler...

That's what I did @dorqus and flashed the kernel zip to be safe but after a couple fails found out it will not work unless your lollipop already had to Odin back twice lol but its running good so far 1st boot super long phone got to got for me rebooted and it updated 26 apps and started up fine

So just to be sure, all i need to do is replace the boot.img to the oc4 one and rezip and i should be able to flash it. I'm on 5.0 using muniz method. I'm running alliance 7.1 right now but have been wanting Twi5ted for a while now.

Yep if you want to be safe chase it with the kernel zip too but kernel sway should be sufficient... I'll do a test real quick with mine with just the swapped kernel no extra zip I'll be back with results for ya shortly

A lot simpler than just two flashes? First one when you open the app and it flashes the NCE for you and takes you to safestrap. And the second one is when you're done flashing whatever you want just flash the OC4 kernel and boot back up to your phone.
I've tried FF and it was more complicated for me. Also, not everyone knows how to replace the boot.img like you did. I guarantee you that a lot of don't even know what it is. LOL

Easy now. Lol. I'm still learning myself. I just extracted the OA1 boot loader that muniz uploaded for the "5.0 update and keep root" copied all that was in that folder and placed in the Twi5ted folder and removed the Twi5ted "boit.img" is that not what should be done? I haven't flashed yet.

running alliance rom.......

Downloaded twi5ted v4, unzipped it and extracted the boot.img from the G900A_OC4_Stock_Rooted_Firmware.tar.md5 in the g900a update to 5.0 thread, and deleted the one in the rom zip and replaced it, and rezipped. Upon trying to load it into flashfire I got a crash as someone as the verification got to 100, I tried 4 times, all of them with the same java.lang.outofmemory error, which was confusing cause I have plenty of memory free. I'm giving it another shot, if it works I'll come back here and give a link to the zip for anyone else who wants to do it with some steps that worked for me.

I'm back after attempt number 5, still no dice, it gets to 100% crashes, I'll go ahead and post the zip anyway in case anyone else wants to give it a shot. The exact process I did, was download the v4 zip from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3037766 then extract it with zarchiver, replaced the boot.img, then zipped it again with zarchiver, and the file size went from 1.25 gb to 1.26 gb. It seems strange this one fails to load but the stock lollipop tar which is double this one's size loads much faster and perfectly fine. If you want to give it a go, download the zip, reboot your phone (to clear out as much memory as possible) and then open flash fire and add the zip as a firmware package, as it won't even show up if you click "flash zip or ota", for me at least. As usual, I'm not responsible if you brick, and can't provide any assurance you won't since I haven't even been able to flash it in the first place.

where did you get the KitKat Kernel tar from to flash with Odin? Odin only accepts .tar files and the only KitKat kernel i've found was from @K-alz and that's a flashable zip.

When you use nice apk it automatically takes your kernel back down to kitkat...so I assume...after your in as and install your ROM..you use oc4 kernel through Odin...am I getting your question right?

How to unroot my verizon tab

Alright guys i have searched and tried and tried. Currently i am on dj11 with kernal version stated as 2.6.32.9 and right below it has [email protected]#3. I am on 2.2
So what ive tried:
-I used heimdall to flash back to stock but as you can see the kernal version says im still rooted although superuser app is not installed. This causes the update to fail
-I tried to use superoneclick method to unroot but it does not work
What i want is to be stock with no root and be able to update. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
FYI i also used all the thread procedures on the forum (gizmo ninja and how to unbrick tab)

Don't know what the problem could be. That has always worked for me. If you go to the "System-- About Device-- System Updates" does it give you the option to update? When I have restocked mine and set up a wireless connection it always tries to download and install the update.

Flash that. You will have the latest official release, or you could get the VZW Leaked Gingerbread release from the Developers section. (That is what I am running on my VZW tab).
Maybe if you flashed the EC02 update and then used the going back to stock instructions it would unroot you. I have always unrooted using that rom and directions when I wanted to start fresh from a custom rom that didn't quite work like I wanted it to work.

I will give that a shot. The current gb leak is rooted. I did post asking to see if they (oldmacnut) had the unrooted version. Personally I like the rooted option but I do want to sell the tab and can't sell it rooted unless the person doesn't care. Bedside this issue the tab is fine and working properly.

There is a unrooted version of Gingerbread that you can flash with Odin:
http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/...w-sprint-2-3-4-ef01-rooted-updated8-15-a.html
I haven't used Odin, but if you are familiar with it you might have luck with this. I think you use 7zip to extract and then use the resulting md5 file in the One Package location. You might want to look there and get that file.

I just tried this.
Unzip the .md5 file with 7zip, you will get an error about no proper ending or something. Take your zimage, cache, param, dbdata, factoryfs, recovery.bin and place them in the proper locations in Heimdall. Flash your tab and let it boot up.
You should have a fully functional gingerbread without root.
I just did it on my tab.

No OS installed - but can boot to Safestrap

I somehow screwed up a flash and now I have no OS installed but I can boot to Safestrap recovery. Any ideas on how to get the OS loaded? I'm going to see if I have an micro SD to SD converter so I can load the OS there and try to flash via external SD. Is there another way? Thanks!

I had the same issue, and tried flashing multiple times via the external SD. Unfortunately, given that I got to your current situation by wiping everything but the external SD, it still wouldn't work. I flashed multiple times, but it always just said that it couldn't mount /data and /system. I ended up doing the MJ5 Restore found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2559715

The home file is all 4 files in 1. Just use the 4 individual files to install original NC2 firmware and wipe at the same time. Ignore the home file.

Yes that would be correct. Using the home file is like using all 4 files only the home file doesn't wipe before installing. It installs firmware like an ota update would. I thought using the 4 files would reset you, and give you a clean install.

see if you can fix it using the link in the above post if not let me know and I will back up my stock ATT KK 4.4.2 NC2 in safe strap after factory reset and I can send it to you. You can flash that and see if that works.
And what I understand is you started from stock 4.4.2 NC2 and than you towel root than installed SU and busybox and than installed the SS . After you went into SS, did you wipe the stock rom slot? Can you please explain in detail including each step so we know.

Nice! :good:
Worked with no problems!
Flashed all 4 files using Odin 3.07 over stock, unrooted, NC9 OTA , which in turn I had flashed over stock, unrooted, ML2 through stock recovery. I had used the same Odin 3.07 to flash ML2 over MF3 (which came with the phone).
I had rooted the MF3 and installed Safestrap on it at some point. Once I decided a couple of days ago to try to upgrade all the way to NE3, I uninstalled Safestrap, all other programs I had installed and unrooted with SuperSu and did a factory reset in preparation for the ML2 flash with Odin (the phone still said custom when it booted after that, but once I flashed the ML2 Odin files, the phone was back to the stock boot animation).
I actually was stuck on the stock, unrooted, NC9 yesterday because after trying to flash the NE3 OTA through the stock recovery, the OTA seemed to be applied, but upon reboot the phone was still at NC9? And today, the solution! Thanks to all involved!:good:
By the way, I checked my knox counter when I entered Download (Odin) Mode before I flashed NE3 and it was at 0x0, so it seems that neither rooting nor installing Safestrap on MF3 changed the knox counter to 0x1
Next step, root with Towelroot, see how that goes (Thank you Geohot!):good:

If your question was about my last post where I posted the MD5 for the SGH-I537UCUCNE3_v4.4.2_ATT_ALL.zip file that I got using the program Checker V4.0.0.? The program is a Windows program, not an Android App.
yes I know that windows program and I said md5 file for android Samsung phobes not program app ... and the odin files 4.4.2 NE3 worked good without problems

OK, I'm in over my head I have i537ucucne3. I flashed s5 conversion v5+ deodex_me. I'm a noob and I didn't make a back up first. Now I just want to get back to stock. If I flash the firmware in this thread, will that put me back to stock? Any help is much appreciated , please, and thank you.

Yeah, if you flash this firmware you will be completely stock. It week completely wipe your phone and you will have to reroot.
Awesome, thank you much for the reply.

It might be the actual stock ROM (I didn't check that particular file you mentioned) but in general the stock ROM for this phone comes in four files which begin with the following:
AP, CP, CSC, BL
You can load those in their corresponding spots in Odin (BL in bootloader, and so on)
Or you can head over to sammobile and download the stock firmware, which is a Samsung Kies dump file. This is one giant tar ball ( like the one in the video) which you'll just load into the PDA section of Odin 3.09 and flash away.
When you're clicking on ODIN are you running it as Admin? Also see the guy in the video using a USB 2 cable.
yes i am running as admin. it only works when i only use pda. when i put in the bl and csc and cp is keeps failing. after if flashed the pda file the phone reboots and freezes on the samsung screen. should i try doing it one by one?
it wont work still failing. should i flash one by one?
I did but i cant load it. i only get to the samesung logo and it freezes. only thing i can get into is download mode and the stock recovery. is there a way to boot into safestrap when phone is off? im running out of ideas and ive tried to do it on different computers and cords.
it seems like the bootloader file is the only one not working. do you have any idea? please please please help guys

Don't flash the bootloader and you should be fine
I tried that and it still freezes on Samsung logo. Does anyone have a legit firemware I've tried the ones on here or does anyone know how to get the one from sammobile? Really appreciating the help

Download the G900A_Downgrade_to_NCE.tar from here:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23622183712464416
Use Odin 3.09 and flash in AP slot. Once it is done then take the OTA for NG3 then OA1
Thanks to @muniz_ri

Download the G900A_Downgrade_to_NCE.rar. Unzip and you should get this file "G900A_Downgrade_to_NCE.tar.md5". Now Run Odin 3.09 as admin, and put your phone in download mode. In Odin click on the AP icon and point to the G900A_Downgrade_to_NCE.tar.md5. Wait until Odin finishes loading the file it takes some time. Plug usb cable to your phone while in download mode. Once Odin is ready click start. Wait until Odin is done. Your phone will reboot once the flash is done. Please Thank @muniz_ri for his hard work.
Yea. Prolly should have checked this forum before you went on the journey.

Now, Instead of making sarcastic comments, I will provide some assistance. There is one thing left out of all of these tutes that took me a while to catch on to. As a result, my phone was doing the same thing.
When you follow the downgrade instructions, yes leave out the boot loader. Sometimes, the downgrade doesn't do the job properly, so you'll have to go to this thread, scroll to the very bottom post and you'll see a link for "G900A_NCE_Stock_Modem"
You will need to flash this along with the stock firmware. It should correct the boot issue. (Flash in PDA slot)
Furthermore, you will not be able to update via WiFi OTA. You'll have to download the official update files in .zip format.
Go to this thread for the " G900A_NCEtoNG3_OTA.zip" to update from NCE to NG3.
This next step is optional, but it won't hurt to try it. Go here and grab the stock NG3 modem and recovery. Flash each (one at a time) in the PDA slot.
My personal opinion of the 4.4.4 update is low. There are many issues with it. But if you're trying get the phone completely up to date then:
Go here for the final update.
You should now be set. Please thank @muniz_ri for his unrelenting dedication to helping others.
It is not my intention to be an ass, but you should begin with google, and then search entire AT&T forum before posting questions like this. Chances are, others have had the same problem, asked, and received a solution exactly like this.
Anyways, I hope I was able to guide you in the right direction...
Edit: It seems that both of the update zips are in the OA1 root guide thread.
P.S.
Your phone is from AT&T, right?

[Q] Odin and my Note 3

Here is my presentiment that I've posted elsewhere
My phone was working just fine this morning but after updating a few apps through Google Play my phone started throwing up messages that gapps process was continuously crashing.
I then restarted the phone and it would not get to the AT&T startup. I have since flashed the OC1 kernel through SafeStrap but now the phone will not leave the AT&T startup logo.
Any ideas for what I can do? I have an older backup but not on 5.0 like I should. If need be I'll be going through the entire reinstallation process of 5.0 again.
EDIT: Just realized that I have a bigger problem now since I cannot access SafeStrap Recovery.

I need some help with ODIN to get it back to stock. As you can see, I cannot get to SafeStrap anymore. Would it be alright to ODIN to Lollipop or do i need to go to 4.4.4? Anything I need to keep in mind before doing this? I just need to get to SafeStrap and I can get to some backups that I have.

You need to Odin flash the NC2 Kernel to get Safestrap to work http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2800888&stc=1&d=1402892555 then you should be able to wipe and install one of your backups.

So I have the kernel you linked downloaded and unzipped. Within Odin 3.10 do I want to place that md5 file under the "Re-Partition" entry?

I know you're probably sick of me posting but would I have to ODIN flash a different kernel to get Safestrap access on Lollipop? For some reason once I updated the startup prompt for Safestrap disappeared.

Yes you would have to flash the NC2 Kernel then after you are done with Safestrap you need to flash the OC1 Kernel. To access Safestrap without Odin you would need to install the NC2 Flasher from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-att/development/nc2-flasher-app-unsafe-t2989141/ plus you need the two (2) files from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-att/general/att-nj5-safestrap-t2957471 Thanks @benwaffle and Thanks @carl1961.
