Im from Sweden, i guess i know the codes, but before rooting i didnt checked them out so im not pretty sure if they are the right.

Did you have villianrom installed?

You have to flash a original firmware and have the right CSC set on it.
You can flash normaly with odin.
regards
Thanks.
I know how to flash to original firmware but what is CSC and how to do it?
Thank you.

Just flash the original firmware for your country/region, it already contains the right csc file. After reboot dial in phonepad *2767*3855# for a factory reset and you`re done (backup your important files to the computer !)

Is gone after the Odin flash
You're all right, but keep in mind that the flash counter might be set, so you have to reset the counter.
Just check it in the download mode.
Well, wasn't the "unroot" tool doing the same thing?

Factory reset does not remove CWM. You need to re-flash the stock ROM (System, Modem, Kernel and etc).
i cant find the stock rom for my country - PHILIPPINES
Thanks to all for helping me on this.
My phone become 'virgin' and save to sent to samsung for warranty claim.
Original firmware [check]
Flash counter [check]
CWM [check]
If im missed something please let me know.
Thanks again.

[Q] How does the Build Number affect me?

Hi guys,
What I want to know is how does the Build Number affect me? Mine is JDQ39.i9505ZHUAME1 but other people have different build numbers. I know this is probably a stupid question but i'm asking it anyway.
Will this affect me in terms of loading custom ROMs?
Will the build number be changed when I install a custom ROM?
If it is changed will this affect my ability to use my carrier?
Thanks for the help

Build number may change with diffrnt roms as they myte be using different firmware as a base for roms
It won't affect ur phone in flashing any Rom as long as its for ur varaiant

If I reset my phone to stock firmware do I need to use the one for Hong Kong (jdq39.i9505zhuame1)? If I do, can someone link me to it?

Can't update OTR after flashing back original

I rooted my phone and install a custome rom but today I tried to flash back my original rom I backup and tried to update my phone through kies and it says my firmware can't update due to a change in my firmware. My phone is still rooted and I still have a custome recovery install. Is that causing the problem? Sorry I'm new to all this. Thanks.

That's exactly the issue. If your device status is listed as modified, then Kies will not work. You basically forfeit your option to update through that program. I think unrooting would help, or just wait and flash the new 4.3 ROM that will be available soon.
This should have been posted in q&a. It would be helpful to know what specific phone you have. You say you've flashed back to the stock Rom but you still have a custom recovery? How did you flash back to stock?

If you want to restore back to stock and remove the custom recovery you should use Odin. That should let you get the ota firmware upgrade.
So I have to use Odin to put back my original firmware? Also I'm not to sure how to put back Odin to stock recovery.

When you flash the stock firmware with odin it'll put the stock recovery back on at the time. You don't have to do anything special.

You don't flash the backup with odin. Get the stock firmware from sammobile.com for your specific device and carrier.
So I would download Odin to my pc than download and install the original firmware with odin? Do you have a step by step on flashing with odin? Thanks!

The attached guide is not for the i337 but the process is the same. Just don't use any linked files, except for Odin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26056924
