First reset your binary counter using Triangle away then try to download SuperSu app,then click on it,and search for the "fully unroot" or something like that,click on it,reboot,and you should be unrooted.

Note 3 N900S CF-Auto-Root on android 4.4 (kitkat)

I have Note 3 N900S And I already upgraded it to android kitkat , I used the old root file(CF-Auto-Route provided by chainfire ) and when I flash using Odin it says "Recovery is not Seandroid Enforcing" and keep boot looping And I must flash the original kitkat stockrom to get the note working , so I need a root file that can root n900s on android 4.4.2 kitkat, please help and sorry for my bad English
Note:chainfire update the old CF-Auto-Route file to work on android 4.4.2 kitkat but for N9005 only

You can't use CF autoroot on the Korean KK bootloaders because they are different from the international one.
Flash CWM usin Odin from here http://d-h.st/rZq, then get root with SuperSu (http://download.chainfire.eu/382/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.93.zip) through CWM. Remember to take a backup of your system before you do this, though!

Thx

Lollipop update on Galaxy GT-i9515

Hi everybody,
I need help with my rooted Samsung Galaxy S4 Value Edition (gt-i9515, running 4.4.2). I'd like to update it to lollipop and I can't find any specific tutorial for the i9515, which for some reasons seems to be different from the basic i9505 version. I'm running the official rom, since there isn't any support for custom roms on the i9515.
Somebody help me please

Official Update
Hello, no need to do anything guys,
just go to Settings / Check for Updates, it will automatically download the official Samsung Update to lollipop 501

Thank you for your answer, but I had already tried the official way before posting and it didn't work because the phone is rooted

Download the ROM from sammobile and flash it with Odin. You will need to re root and please bear in mind that xposed currently does not work on Samsung Lolipop ROMs

Thank you very much, I'll try that!! :good:

I just realized that the GT-9515 is not even mentioned between the s4 models, hence there's no firmware available to download. How do I solve this now?

Downgrade SM-G531H to KitKat?

Since the G531H can't be rooted yet, I've tried to downgrade to KitKat using odin and a image for the G530H. It failed. Can it be done?

It can't be done, since the g531h has another hardware specifications, you will ended with a bricked phone.

Go here, find the proper OS and country for your device >> http://samsung-firmware.org/model/SM-G530H/page/1
Many pages, 11+..then use Odin..I personally havent reverted to KK from LP..but I have reverted to an earlier version of 5.1.1..because I'm new to Samsung..and my Grand Prime, from box with 5.1.1
Dont know if you can revert to 4.4.4
The reason being, is a possible bootloader version change..in my past experiance with Moto devices, once the bootloader version changes, reverting cannot be done..
Research this..which may be your flash failure cause..or maybe a bad download or incorrect OS for your device..the country code MUST match..

Thanks for your response, but still it didn't work. I did as you suggested; I downloaded
the correct firmware for my device, flashed it via Odin but failed. On device it shows "SW REV CHECK FAIL : (aboot) Fused 2 Binary 1" error
I recently updated to lollipop 5.0.2 via Odin, my phone model SM-G530H baseband G530HXXU2BOH5.
I think the reason I can't downgrade to Kitkat 4.4.4 is because of bootloader update.
I want to downgrade to Kitkat because most of the apps which used to work on Kitkat don't work on lollipop anymore, and also its very slow.
if anyone out there could help downgrade to Kitkat, plz do it. I would greatly appreciate it.

I'm sorry it didnt work for you..
Make sure you are flashing the correct OS for your device..I cant say for sure, new to Samsung..but probably a bootloader update issue..Maybe research which bootloader version with KK and LP..I think you may find your revert issue..I hope I'm wrong..please someone correct me if I'm wrong..

since no one can tell me how to downgrade to Kitkat, it feels like I 'm stuck on lollipop forever. I 'm desperate to go back to Kitkat ; kindly let me know if you come up with something.
regards

Go down this list..do you see 4.4.4 anywhere.?
You are asking for something that doesnt exist..and also..bootloader will PROBABLY be an issue..Dont think you realize what you are asking for..
If you MUST have 4.4.4 then sale your device and purchase a device on 4.4.4..SOLUTION..

Note Edge bootloop: phone screen goes black after Samsung logo, what are my options?
i have a galaxy note edge, but couple of days back when i unpluged my phone from the charger and tried to turn it on it would not boot up properly;even if it did it would turn itself off at different times. so i had decided to flash stock rom, thinking this could solve the problem. i downloaded stock rom from sammobile, flash it via odin,and it was successful;but when the phone rebooted with rebooting recovery on the top left of the screen then the screen went black. to turn the the device on again i have to pull the battery out and put back in after 10-15 seconds. and now whenever i try to turn the device on, it boots up with 'rebooting to recovery' on the top left of the screen but goes black as soon as the samsung logo shows up. i don't know what's causing this problem.
if anyone out there could help me get out of this problem,i would greatly appreciate it
thanks in advanced

Wanted to ask if it is safe to flash build number LMY48B.G531HXXU0AOK2 with build date of Nov 2015 over the build LMY48B.G531HXXU0APC2 with build date in March 2016.
Tl;dr is it safe to flash an older lollipop build over a new one using odin
