i think this firmware XFE-I9500XXUBMH1 have original bootloader or some like that, make you do the downgraded easy

The link that I gave you contains the stock & original 4.2.2 that came with the device for the first time
So its the most stable
Please give me the link to the 4.2.2 firmware that you used for downgrade.
And after you downgraded you dont have wifi or imei problems??

wifi and all things working so fine and bettery is good
,
but there is problem on phone when i use apk Multi room and phone auto lost os cygenmode and 4.3 and i flash new firmware 4.4.2
and after i goto recovery mode and i make wipa data / facorty reset and done
but when i press on wipa cash partition phone get auto restart
and after i make downgrade it's still

Ok tnx man
and the solution for your problem is to use custom recovery to wipe data & cache
Then flash stock 4.2.2

Downgrade the latest Samsung devices is the MOST STUPID THING you can do in your life. Maybe 2 or 3 persons dont agree with me but the rest for sure yes. If ODIN let u downgrade becomes the problems with wifi, data, random reboots, warranty void, battery drains... And you downgrade coz ur phone was bad with the new android version? Come on! :laugh:

[issue]WiFi Toggle Does not Work

I got my S4 these days. I have flashed XXUAME2 with Odin, rooted the phone, tried MIUI, but was not satisfied. So I restored the backup. Everything was working fina till I installed Adaway and rebooted the phone. Suddenly the wifi was not working anymore. I clicked on the wifi-witch to activate WiFi - no result. Then I rolled back the backup, installed the I9505_XXUEMJ5_MODEM, installed even the "fix". But the wifi still does not work.
Now I just want to have a normal S4 with the original rom, rooted - and working wifi.
What should I do?
Thanks a lot in advance! :highfive:

Hello mate please download this file and flash it via odin by selecting phone, and Remember to turn it off your phone manually before flashing any modem,If the problem still persist please tell me if your in old bootloader or the new bootloader and will be happy to assist you have a nice day.
To check your bootloader go to download mode and if you have an entry of Knox warranty void then you are having the new bootloader.
If you are having the old bootloader XXUB flash http://www.mediafire.com/download/48r0rgqv25s8968/GSM_Modem_XXUEMFK_and_LTE_Modem_XXUBMH1.rar file with odin by selecting phone.
If you are having the new bootloader XXUD flash http://www.mediafire.com/download/zriv6i5c01lqns6/GSM_Modem_XXUEMFK_and_LTE_Modem_XXUMFK.rar file with odin by selecting phone.
First, wow, thanks for that fast reply, dude! Ok, I have 0x1, that means, I have to flash the file for the new bootloader, right?
Is there anywhere a mirror? I am in China right now and mediafire is blocked.
Cheers :highfive:

Edit: if flashing a different kernel thats not work then I think the only way to fix this would be to flash a complete official stock firmware which you can get it from here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/ or if you want a pre-rooted you can follow the instruction here.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250824 have a nice day sir and merry christmas to you.
Cool, I saw your edit post. Thanks, dude.
What Firmware should I choose? The phone was bought in Germany from BASE. BASE is using the E-Plus network. But the phone is not branded nor carrier-locked. Should I choose the E-Plus Firmware?
Plus. How to install the Firmware? Just use Odin3 to flash it?

if you want a stock rom from samsung you can go from here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/ and if you want a pre-rooted rom you can go from here as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250824 Have a nice day.
Remember to follow any instruction before flashing. you have to flash the firmware via odin and select pda. And flash away. And sorry that i cannot assist you for now because ill be having a dinner with my family and hoping someone will help you to fix this problem if the problem still persist after flashing the stock firmware. Merry christmas to you n your family . And xda community
Ok, understood, thanks.:good:
I want to get a pre-rooted ROM. What version should I pick? I want to have Android 4.3 and (if possible) de-bloated. My Knox is 0x1 and I don't really care about Knox or Knox-related features.
The list here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250824 is very long and complicated. I read through it two times and am not sure what ROM to download.
Can anyone assist, please?
Merry Christmas everyone! :highfive:

Alright, I have installed this pre rooted version. Wifi works again, thanks.
One annoying issue: everytime I restart the phone, I have to activate Wifi again and re-enter the password.
Edit: Another very annoying issue: I believe that screen is not being dimmed correctly. It is always to dark, even in a very bright enviroment. Plus: the LEDs of both hardware keys are always on when the screen is on.
I just want to have the normal Samsung Stock rooted.
What am I doing wrong?

If you installed the pre-rooted rom and your having a problem do a factory reset bro phone settings> accounts > backup and reset >Factory reset . Or turnb off your device manually and wait a few sec hold power+volume up the same time and do it there as well, Make sure to use the odin 3.09 when your flashing ..ODIN has problems with flashing latest FW's and if WiFi doesn't work you MUST flash ROM again

No If you download the pre-rooted rom you need to flash it via odin , just like how you flash the stock rom have a nice day.
Edit: if you see a .tar inside of the file means you need to flash it via odin
Understood. Alright, since I don't want to lose all my apps and settings, I decided to flash the Wifi-Fix: XXUEMKE WiFi_FIX
I used Odin to flash this tar.
Unfortunately the Wifi has still the same issue like in the beggining.
Is there an option to flash the wifi fix in the recovery?

The question is, did u even extract the file you download ? And no you can only flash it via odin and select phone/cp
Sent from my Phone.
Hey, thanks for your help, mate!
Yap, I have extracted the file and flashed the *.tar via odin. Still no result.
Alright, to sum it up. The fix does not work for me. Why? Should I try to flash another Modem?
edit: I really want to have the phone working now. I dont care about other modifications, I just want to have the basic OS rooted. That is all. How to do this?

If i have this problem right now,the best thing i will do is either to flash pre-rooted rom or the stock rom if there is any Fc and such . Just turn of your phone the wait a few sec and hold power+volume up in order to reach recovery and do a wipe cache and a factory reset . Hehe
Edit:you already did flash the pre rooted that joku gave u right? Reflash it and follow the step above
Sent from my Phone.
Ok, thanks.
There are no FC at all, just the wifi is the problem.
However, I will flash I9505XXUAME2_MODEM, apply the fix and hope that it will work.
Should I flash modem with odin via "PDA" oder via "PHONE"?
Another question: If I download a pre-rooted ROM and flash it via the recovery, will the new modem be included in the ROM?
Thanks again, mate.
Edit: http://d-h.st/users/DjeMBeY/?fld_id=16262#files
There is no fix for the UAME2. That sucks.

Download odin 3.09 its better to use it with s4.
If your gonna flash the modem always use PHONE/CP. If your flashing pre-rooted rom from djembey or samsung stock firmware always use PDA. And if you download custom rom such as omega,phoenix,golden,etc.etc then you flash that via recovery using either CWM, philz or twrp.
Edit try emj5 wifi fix if not just do a fresh install

Don't give up so easy. ... If you tell us what kinda root method did u use it might help us to help you figure it out what is your firmware. ....MF3 use jortex method to root. ...(format your sd card to exfat and use terminal emulator)......If already on 4.3 MK2 u should use SAFEROOT METHOD from Verizon forum. .... follow my thread..... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2573080.... it will get u back on track. ...... If u are MF3 just use MF3.tar files from first post. ....If u think u are Mk2 using that one click tool..... (Most likely u are MK2 already. ... Since u said u upgraded to 4.3 and root doesn't work anymore).... Then u should go to post#3 follow the guide. .....u should be ok..... save that money.... If u need more help PM me......

Im having similar woes. I had problems installing a ROM, softbricked, tried restore to 4.2.2, wouldnt go, tried updating (stupidly) to 4.3 got obKNOXious (had no clue then about knox) tripped knox by trying to go back to 4.2.2 and got firmware update fail. Stuck with no recovery, nor any way of repairing. I tried many versions of ODIN, both kies emergency firmware update options, and heimdall. Heimdall seems promising as i have been able to flash a custom recovery with --no-reboot and reboot using pwr+home+vlup, and i get a warning about tripping knox but it boots into custom recovery. I am able to flash (CM11 for example) but it gives me kernel trips on knox and shuts down on boot. i saw your other thread about the mf3 and mk3 but im not sure if they would work for my variant. no matter what i try i cant get this paperweight to its former glory. local repair center said they wont do anything as knox warranty = tripped. no best buy samsung centers in my area. someone please help.

OK im shocked but somehow i made this work. i used to kies to download firmware by using firmware upgrade and initialization under tools and grabbing the firmware from windows user/appdata/local/temp folder after kies finished downloading (as it starts decompressing)(faster than waiting to download from sammobile). i then pulled all files out of md5 using 7zip, and used heimdall to flash all files to their respective partitions/mountpoints. rebooted still no recovery nor boot. tried again and nothing. i then tried a custom recovery and it gave me seandroid enforcing RECOVERY and restart. so then i tried flashing custom recovery again using heimdall with --no-reboot switch and rebooted with volup+home+pwr and then i was able to enter custom recovery. so i wiped data and cache rebooted got nothing, no recovery no boot just dl mode. so i then reflashed stock rom through heimdall and rebooted, got stock recovery which would try to do something (progress bar appeared) and bootlooped. so i reflashed custom recovery again wiped cache and data and /data /media option (which took longer even though no extsdcard present, which puzzled me) and this time i tried to mount system in recovery and got an error. so i formated /system and it mounted fine. rebooted no boot no recovery. flashed custom recovery wiped /data /media, /cache, /dalvik, formated /sdcard, /system, /data, /cache, mounted /system and rebooted right into download mode and flashed stock image but this time with --no-reboot switch and once finished i manually rebooted into recovery. recovery did its thing and i finally i got a boot animation and glowing led, left it for 10 minutes and it was at samsung setup screen. unplugged my phone instantly died. no boot no recovery. repeated last step but once in samsung os i went to settings backup and reset menu and reset the phone from there. it went into recovery on its own, erased and rebooted and it seems to work fine now (fingers crossed, its only been ten minutes (relatively little compared to this 2 week ordeal.) Oddly enough kies downloaded a bell version although my phone is fido

[Q] N9005 revert to stock rom

Cheers!
I recently flashed CyanogenMod 11 on my N9005. The thing is i'm not happy with it and i want to revert back to a stock rom. So what i was wondering is if i have to revert to the exact old version (4.3) or i could flash a stock KitKat firmware from SamMobile and how can i do that? I read a thread where a guy bricked his phone when trying with cwm cause he had some files missing. I know most users are sick of noobs like me asking this kind of questions but i would much appreciate if someone could help me out.
Thanks

Follow the instructions on the link, also there is a link on that page which takes you another page how to root N9005XXUENB7 which is the latest firmware for samsung galaxy note 3 SM-N9005. Please make sure you follow the instructions carefully and you have the right model international Note 3 SM-N9005,
http://nasirtech.blogspot.co.uk/2014/03/n9005xxuenb7-android-442-kitkat.html
The above method is for bringing the phone to factory stock. If you just want to revert back to a samsung rom and your phone is rooted with custom recovery, which I presume it is, you can just flash a samsung rom of your choice there are plenty to choose from and every rom thread have instructions how to flash their rom
Hope this helps, all the best.

So, like yesterday, Odin fails on me. At the very end. When the green loading bar is full and it seems like it's going to succeed, the last line says failed. The phone has CWM 6.0.4.7 flashed and CF AutoRoot. Any ideeas?

ok that NB7 is failing on me as well for some reason, but in the mean time to get your phone back on line download NB4 (link below) and flash using odin 3.07, thats what I did and got no errors phone booted with no problems, if it takes too long to boot after flashing or goes in a boot loop enter recovery mode (home+power+vol up) and do data/factory reset and clear cache but that will wipe the internal storage, hope this will work

Another thing is your phone a 16GB model ?, or is it 32 or 64GB, cheers.
It's actually 32GB. I'm just after realizing. Would that be the reason why it's not working?

I'd flash TWRP or CWM and wipe it through that but if you haven't done so already this will trip your Knox warranty void as these recoveries are custom.
Better to try this than leave as a brick..

It is like something prevented the phone to get to the part that contains the rom but at the same time if I had a problem with emmc I believe that odin would report failure but everything goes right and odin says pass but the phone dont boot.
for links I erased my browser history recently because my computer was stuffed.
If i can get stock rom with files separatly like pda modem ans csc instead a single tar file i'll try this.

return to kitkat problem

did anyone try to comeback (910C)lolipop (new poland stock rom COJ5) to kitkat (4.4.4) via odin
in Turkish forum some guy tried to comeback ,but he did not success it.I told him what I know about this.
he also used 4 parts rom and pit files ,one part rom and pit files,firstly try to kitkat bootloader via odin etc.etc but he said no,no,no
some guys are saying,now samsung has prevent to return kitkat from COJ5 ,is that true or not
we need alternatives way
hi,still no any idea
guys,I thing samsung putted a bootloader lock to return to kitkat even 5.0.1.
I tried to both of them ,but result no succesed it. that is way ,whom want to return to comeback to kitkat and 5.0.1 bootloader ,they will meet this lock. maybe you want to use miui rom like me .what will I do
I bought a new Note 4 N910G Indian version with LP 5.01. Loaded a custom Rom, Dr.Ketan ROM 5.0.1 after rooting. Got Xposed working but still didnt like it. I then downgraded to Stock Kitkat 4.4.4 from Sammobile site with ODIN. Rooted after loading TWRP again. (Root got disabled on downgrading so had to reroot SuperSu). Loaded Xposed. Everything working smoothly. Only one issue is Lockscreen Widgets which even Xposed is not able to bypass when the phone has PIN or Pattern lock but very happy now. Quite similar to my JB Note 3 N9005 which is what I wanted.
pelase help, any idea, suggestion,etc.
what should I do ,what can I do
i tried 5.0.1 but then came back to ANK3 4.4.4 Kitkat via ODIn with no problem. Nothing still beat the Xposed on Kitkat. One thing I am looking forward to is more options of 4.4.4 kernel. I can only see 1 kernel for kitkat which is KT kernel. Hopefully some more kernel for Note 4 Kitkat OS will be available.

Did you do all the steps properly?
I started off by doing a complete Reset and Format in TWRP. Wiped everything including External SD card.
So maybe you should do that first. But backup any important data on some external storage not connected to the phone. Most important : Make sure you are using the correct stock Kitkat ROM version for your model from Sammobile site.
Follow the instructions on Sammobile's firmware download page, and you should be back to stock Kitkat 4.4.4 soon.

Dont know why you are fiddling with PIT. Not required to touch it at all. As far as I know 5.1.1 to KK is quite possible, just as mine I successfully downgraded from 5.0.1 to KK.
Once you wipe everything and format SD card as well, and start with a clean slate, it should work through ODIN. Try with another version of ODIN maybe? Dont touch PIT section at all.

have you tried flashing CWM recovery and wiping everything and using clean install? that way it will remove your 5.1.1 FW

try to search for custom ROM with the same bootloader that you are using right now, your official bootloader will not let you flash any older bootloader thats why you cant flash anything under 5.1.1.,
i suggest try flashing the latest wanam
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/development/rom-wanamlite-clean-odex-xposed-t2923266
if you successfully flash the wanam then try to flash the stock kitkat again
