Use Samsung Kies. If you don't know how to use Kies let me know I can try to help.

I did not knOw you could use kies to unroot and return to stock? I thought you had to use Odin and find the firmware. So you can just connect to kies and choose restore or something like that? Thanks!

Kies can be useful with the emergency f/w recovery, other than that, it's trash.

You can use either cf auto root and root the same way as you did with mdl or you can use crawj's mf9 stock rooted tar and odin that to get rooted.

OK thanks alot for the speedy reply. Didn't know if the cfauto root would work with the mf9 build. I did searh, but couldn't find anything. I did see the options u mentioned though.

You didn't say what firmware you are on, but you might want to try KIES3 instead of the regular KIES.
On MF3 4.2.2 sorry.

Take the device out of developer/debug mode if you want to use kies or kies3.
I think i tried that and it didn't work, has anyone with ATT s4 able to connect with kies?

I can't get kies to work either, we're both in the same boat. There is no real reason to use kies though. They don't have the firmware for you to update or anything so your better off not using kies.

I talked to ATT support and they said that being my update fails all the time that the firmware is ON kies and to update that way.

Could you elaborate or post a link to a thread that describes how to either unroot or flash stock mk2 back?
I've heard that kies works for other carriers but AT&T hasn't sent any firmware to Samsung since MDL. I haven't found any mk2 files to flash via Odin to get back to stock either.
Mind explaining how please

[Q] Need some help fixing my phone

I have an AT&T i337 S4 running Android 4.3 MK2.
I was stupid and tried to flash a recovery that wasn't compatible, now my phone only boots into ODIN mode.
I've been looking for the MD5 files for 4.3 MK2 with no success.
Does any know what I need to do to fix my phone?
Go to best buy and have them reflash the firmware. If not there's a guide in the mj6-mj9 just search and read the forums.

Using I337 S4 rooted unable to install safestrap unable to parse issues. Any help
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Ok everything worked good untill the custom rom flash.. It wouldn't leave the galaxy s4 screen.. So I had to re Odin the Damn thing because it didn't load safestrap anymore.. We'll. Odin failed for 2 Damn hours but after many failed attempts it finally got me back to NB1.. Then I refreshed NC1, installed towelroot and superuser and safestrap and changed to permissive.. Tried flashing a different rom (deadly venom) and every time I try to load it it just loads the normal firmware but on the custom slot.. So I'm not sure if I did anything wrong or if I should try a 3rd rom

I got golden eye to work on the main slot I think.. It's says that it's the build but it looks stock
Edit: after reviewing the goldeneye page.. It says stock look and feel so I'm assuming it's working..
