You don't need to use Triangle Away now... You must press three buttons (home + power + volume DOWN) until a screen with a triangle shows, you press volume up to continue, then plug in your phone via USB (Of course to your PC) after the "Downloading..." screen appears.
Assuming you already have all drivers and stuff to listen from your USB connection, you then have to open Odin program to flash the firmware file you used to install KitKat. That's how you re-install your firmware.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To reset cache partition, you hold down home, power and volume UP this time, this is for entering recovery mode, when you see the blue "Recovery botting" at the top you can release all buttons now, then you go down to "Reset cache partition" and make sure you don't select "Factory reset" if you see a long list of "No no no no no no" then you're in the wrong area, and you MUST go back again.

Our Grand 2 doesn't have a KNOX WARRANTY VOID bit. Don't worry.
But this will be important if rooting a S4 or a Note 3 or above.

Then why does we have this in our device?
And why do we have to disable knox during the root process

Because it shows annoying notifications saying:
Unauthorized changes have been made. Reboot to undo them.
Nothing happens after a reboot.
KNOX*.apk are the ones responsible for this.

[Q] Flash counter warrenty

Hey there
Will using TriangleAway to reset the counter and flashing to stock with ODIN definitely mean that service people will not be able to tell the phone has been modified at all?
Its possible there's a hidden counter but what we can't see we can't guard about...
I would also suggest to hard reset(factory reset in options) completely to reset all statuses..

Also because the s4 does not show a triangle on the download mode screen, Is there any way to check the counter without using triangleaway? and how do they check it in service

If you simply boot in to "Download mode" the phone will show if you have an official or custom binary.... there is no counter...just says custom or official. ..so just do a firmware flash via odin and then a hard reset (optional) ... then check your binary via download mode...I'm sure it'll be reset to official
Good luck hope this helped
Imgoing to test it
Thanks Bro....
:good::good::good::good:
Also in settings go to About>Status and at the bottom it will show either "Official" or "Custom"... This is the bugger that's hard to change...

Im pretty sure there is a counter, It shows up in the triangleaway app
You have to do it this way.
1. Make sure you have a stock Samsung kernel and recovery (triangle away needs it to work on the s4).
- It may be easiest to flash stock firmware and then root again.
2. Once you have stock kernel and recovery and are rooted you can run triangle away. Make sure you follow the instructions carefully as it's a different procedure from older devices.
3. Flash stock firmware that your phone came with. I've discovered the hard way that Samsung service centres match the serial number to the firmware version as another means of checking for software modification.
4. Factory reset.
If you've done everything correctly you'll have official binary/status normal in download mode.
I've done this procedure myself and can confirm it's 100% working.

[Q] Complete reset for warranty

Hello.
My sensor for S View cover is broken (just like many others), which means S View screen is on all the time which renders the phone completely useless (it's impossible to leave this screen).
For a while, I've used CyanogenMod to get around it, as it doesn't have this S View "feature". Now I want to send my phone to repair so the S View sensor can be fixed. I believe I have flashed a stock firmware and rom, and I have also rooted it, and I need help with the next steps:
I need to reset my binary counter.
I need to reset my "CURRENT BINARY: Custom"
I need to reset my "CURRENT STATUS: Custom"
My problem is that I can't use triangle away, because it's an app that I need to install and use on the phone. I am completely unable to use the screen (lets imagine the screen is dead). So is it possible to do this via odin?
I captured a quick video, to show the current status of the phone (and it has been like this on any rom that is based on stock rom - even GPE).

I forgot to mention my phone is rooted currently. But the problem is that I cannot use the OS because of the S View thingy. So unless S View is disabled in the rom you linked, I think I will have the same problem. I'll give it a try, though.

Im sure there is still warranty for that phone because your still on old bootloader and it doesnt say any Knox void warranty when you boot into download mode., but im guessing once they fix your phone they might update your phone to the newest stock firmware with the newest bootloader on it. Goodluck mate
Okay, thanks

WIFI won't turn on (POST 4.3 UPDATE) [SOLVED!]

Hi to all and I hope you all had a great Christmas and I wish you all a prosperous new year.
On Christmas Eve I updated my phone to the 4.3 software through Kies and ever since then, I cannot turn my WIFI toggle on at all- it switches off quickly without connecting, I have tried a few WIFI patches but I cannot find one for my baseband/build number, so none have been successful so far.
Another problem is that when my phone 'sleeps' (I lock it using the power button) it disconnects from my mobile network and sometimes it will reconnect back however after a few times it will stop reconnecting and then I have to keep switching Network Mode ( from LTE/WCDMA/GSM to WCDMA/GSM and vice versa) to be able to get signal. SOLVED
If it is important, my phone was rooted using Odin before doing the 4.3 update however I did NOT install any custom FW, custom recovery or any other modifications.
I'm from the U.K and 3 is my network provider.
Model number: GT-I9505

Hi mate,
Try flashing MK9 GSM modem and LTE Modem via ODIN.........Your build is new bootloader and looks like an old 4.2 baseband.
Look HERE for them.
EDIT - Although I am not too sure if this will affect your KNOX Warranty Status!!!!!
EDIT 2 - But if this was an official update and your phone is currently unrooted/official then I would imagine you could return it to be repaired and explain the update has made things worse?

Thanks for the fast reply! I just flashed the MK9 Modem like you said and I can confirm the network lost when sleeping problem has been solved! Thank you so much !
As for the KNOX status, when I go into download mode there is NOT a KNOX field. I thought once I updated to 4.3 there would be a field designated to KNOX however this is not the case, though I do have the KNOX app on my phone. So basically, I don't know whether I have voided the KNOX warranty or not. Could this be a source to the WIFI problem?
My binary is still custom so I can't give it in for warranty. I'm aware of the Triangle away app however I believe I need to root my phone again? and im not sure if this is possible for 4.3 on GT-I9505 yet...?
Do you have any idea as to how to solve the WIFI problem? Thanks again!

All seems correct if u are using UK ROM H3G branded. If i was u:
Make a backup of ur SD Internal Card
From your home screen press the apps icon in the lower right corner.
Find and press the settings icon.
In the upper end of the screen press the accounts tab.
in the bottom of the next screen press the Backup and reset button.
Press the factory data reset.
Read the info on your cell phone screen and hit Reset device.

Yeah I anticipated that I will lose root but it's no big deal. It's just that with Kies 3 it let me all the way to ticking the boxes and the next step being update whereas the old Kies never let me go that far with custom status.
Also has a nice new warning in red about rooted phones potentially being damaged by updating, which I never saw before, hence why I asked. I presumed though that it's the standard Samsung warnings just in case something goes wrong
Just need to charge my battery because it won't let me update just yet at 77%.

Take out the battery and put it in again
Turn on into Download Mode using (Vol Down plus Home button combi)
Flash Modem once more
Take out the battery and put it in again
Once done, unplug then reboot device manually.
If this doesn't work, try repeating the flash process again while rebooting manually and with auto-reboot option turned off.

hi mate,
that is odd, the part that you cant not get into recovery is strange, did you try to flash a custom recovery and see is you could get into it? if so do a factory reset and see if it helps...

Maybe is a hardware problem , is odd that you can get into download and not into recovery....check the push buttons, power , vol up and down maybe one of them is stuck.

I don't think it is the buttons problem because when I try to enter the recovery mod the blue text appears on top left, do u have any idea what hardware-wise could be the problem ?
Did you try flashing the stock recovery in ODIN? If you can make it work do a factory reset then try flashing a stock ROM again. It sounds like something is corrupted, I have had the same problem many times and stock recovery can always fix it with a factory reset.

hi
running out of ideas...
did you try what post 8 said?
when you flashed the stock rom did you used a newer or same type of rom you had in the device? Odin will not let you flash stock rom with older bootloaders than the one that the device has.
Flash a stock firmware again, but this time, flash a PIT file at the same time as the stock ROM. Make sure to get the right PIT file for your phone model.
Remember to add the PIT file to Odin - If you flash your phone with repartition checked and no PIT file selected, you will break your phone!!
If you've been using custom ROMs, chances are that their partition layout is not a stock layout, and that would explain why flashing a stock ROM isn't working for you..

I really dunno much about these things, can you provide me with the right PIT file? that'd be so much appreciated mate
To be honest mate, if you don't know what you're doing you really shouldn't be messing around with pit files. Please read up before flashing stuff.. Here's a good link for you:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265477
And here's your file, for when you're ready for it..
https://www.dropbox.com/s/t1lvy5oa5mxk3xh/I9505_pit_file.zip?dl=0
Flash the pit file at the same time as the stock firmware. If it still doesn't work then flash the pit file on its own after you've installed the stock firmware.
But most importantly, have a good read of that thread I linked you to.
Please post back, let me know how it goes..
