Can't revert to stock firmware. MJ6 to MJ3

I have upgraded from stock MJ3 to MJ6 BTU using Odin
Due to some instability I tried to revert and flash my MJ3 stock. It failed 3 times. I resigned and flashed MJ6 again and that went well.
Why can't I downgrade to MJ3??

Am in the same boat here ... Plus lost root recovery Knox counter tripped
And nothing seems to be able to downgrade back to mj3 or get root status again
Or get gapps installed

Can't you flash CF autoroot and CWM recovery?? I can, by pc-Odin at least..
Are you sure it is impossible to revert to MJ3?
Can anyone explane the issue?

[Q] SM-N900 International

Hi I recently root my note 3 SM-N900 with CF-AutoRoot, so when I go to Download Mode this is the information that it show me:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SM-N900
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
So I can´t see the Knox counter 0x1,
so I think that if it don´t show the information of Knox maybe it is not void the warranty, but I´m not sure.
now here are my questions
1. How to unroot and back to Official Stock Firmware?
2. If I unroot my note 3 can I use again Knox or not?
thanks for the help, and sorry for my bad english.
Have a nice day.
Flash the official firmware via Odin and it will unroot it. But I'm pretty sure if you used cf autoroot... Your knox will be 0x1

Ok I will try.
one more thing how can I update via OTA, when I try it say that it cant update because I have a Custome Firmware.
Man, you have the old Exynos boot loader which hasn't any knox flag, if you're gonna flash something make sure it's not the newest firmware (MJ7) via Odin or you'll update your boot loader which has a bit counter similar to the knox one, just custom Roms I'd recommend you.

Yea you'll be ok with this. It's the old bootloader

Whatever you do ."DO NOT UPDATE " . Continue using the same rom .once you update via OTA , YOU will never be able to downgrade to lower rom and worst a warranty bit will be activated which will make you loose warranty for life.irreversible

[Q] some info about (mobile odin pro app)

hey guys:
so here are some questions about mobile odin app on my SM-G900F
1- so if i root my phone and then open mobile odin i will be able to flash any firmware using my mobile only? ( on the same model SM-G900F ofcourse)
2-my firmware according to samsung kies is NE2 (LEB) it means lebanon in the middle east, can i flash the firmware NG2(uk) via odin?
3-does cf-root by chainfire works when im on NG2 firmware? i mean does it root my device when im on latest firmware?
so those are my questions, i just want to make things clear to not get my phone in trouble
thanks in advance my friends :fingers-crossed:
I didn't try Mobile ODIN so far on my S5 but this is how it is supposed to work.
I did flash latest UK stock rom & it works perfectly. I am in middle east as well by the way. Also rooted my G900F using Cf-root on NG2 with no problem. Just as you may know, this will hit the Knox counter which is unrecoverable so far.

Still didnt received lolipop i9505

Before few months I rooted my s4 i9505 and then I go back to stock rom , I flashed kitkat firmware via odin and everything work fine but all my friends received lolipop OTA but I dont so is it the problem in knox becuase it says KNOX void waranty 0x1 in download mode?

It's not Knox. Save yourself the hassle of waiting for an OTA by downloading and installing Android 5.0.1 through Odin.
I forgot to mention I bought my s4 sim free unbranded from shop so I thinked that I will get OTA first and I cant flash it via odin becuase my computer is broken

Croatia has gotten LP yeah. But i believe it is only for Croatia (TELE2) customers. Hang on tight it should arrive "soon".
If ya can't wait, head over to your buddies house. Download odin 310 and head over to sammobile.
follow flash instructions all over google.
@z1k4: There's always Mobile Odin as an option.
But for mobile odin root is needed and my phone is not rooted

Then I guess you're going to a friend's house and borrowing their computer.
If I flash lolipop firmware via odin I must do factory reset, i'm right? Which firmware shell I use my phone is i9505 ,bought it factory unlocked white?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app
You should make a backup of your data before starting, but it's not necessary to factory reset beforehand as the ROM install will do that automatically. If your S4 is unlocked, either of the unbranded 5.0.1 ROMs for the I9505 that were mentioned here on the forums will work for you. Both should include Croatian language support, but where you're on the European mainland rather than the UK, the DBT ROM might be a better choice than the BTU ROM.

Update to Kitkat with root using Flashfire?

Hi guys just a quick question.
I am on currently on the 1st build of Kitkat 4.4.2 (G900FXXU1ANCE) on my s5 g900f rooted with towel root and Knox 0x0. I prefer to stay on Kitkat but want to update it to the latest 4.4.2 Kitkat update (G900FXXU1ANI3)
I wanted to know if i download the firmware from sammobile and place the zip file on my sd card, can i use Flashfire with the inject SuperSU option to flash it to my phone, and if that would maintain the root and knox 0x0 for me?
I am not a fan of pc odin. Thanks

Bootloader can't be flashed with Flashfire as of this time.
And you need to update it in order to ANI3 firmware to boot.
Your only option is ODIN mate.
Cheers!
