If you are rooted use Triangle Away to reset the flash counter and after that go straight to download mode and flash a stock rom with Odin. After the flash do a data factory reset and you have the phone as you initialy got it

How to use Odin see this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1372414.
Samsung oficial firmware see www.sammobile.com/firmware, you have to register first before you can download!
After this you are full stock if you flash the rom of your country/region and you will receive all OTA`s again.
hi all. I will be thankful if u can help me.

Have you got the correct drivers installed by Kies? Tried another usb port (no hub)? Are you using the original usb cable?

Its not as hard as it seems to use Odin:
1. Close Kies, also in windows task manager!
2. Enable usb debugging on the phone.
3. Open Odin 3.04 as administrator
4. Place the downloaded rom that is unzipped ONCE and shows a .md5 file in PDA
5. Phone in downloadmode (after you used to reset the flash counter with Triangle Away)
6. Connect the phone with usb to Odin (IDCOM should light up and show a com number)
7. Press start and flash the rom.
Reboot and data factory reset in settings/accounts/reset
Done
Best answer.. easy to understand.. thanksss

BTW sir,.. i cant find any model of Samsung galaxy s4 GTi9505
can u help me to find th original firmwares?
You can try this rom with odin
http://samsung-updates.com/details/12205/Galaxy_S_4_Snapdragon/GT-I9505/XEF/I9505XXUBMGA.html
it's the last official rom from France. the only issue if it's not the right region code for your country is to had just issue with carrier network
why i choose the link from france ? cauz no specific region code for turkey and france is close to france (in geographical situation).
but if you remind the region code of your first stock rom i can try to find a link for the it
this is the easiest way to unroot and go back to stock and official galaxy s4 with TW.
follow this simple guide .

When you ran Odin did you 'run as administrator'?
Also re-download the file you were trying to flash and check the MD5sum. Then try again
Your using the wrong file ....you need mdc or mf9 file....and your using mga wich is not for the sprint version
Yeah didnt caught that damn. You could totally brick your phone with that file.

Not really! Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2258107 , pick your flavor and use Odin V3 1.85, run as admin. It may take 2 tries, but will be back to stock.

So to confirm, you're NOT using a Sprint SPH-L720 but instead an international I9505, correct?
And are you using the most current version of the stock tar or same that you last had on there?

[Q] Why I Cannot Flash Back to Stock Firmware (4.2.2) from 4.3 (MJ3) ?

I add the "home md5" file to the slot "AP" of "Odin v3.9" but Odin said the process failed.
Thank you.
MJ3 has a locked bootloader. You cannot downgrade to 4.2.2

Really don't know and not want to know. It's difficult enough know how it works on the I9505. By the way that's wat we are talking about.
