I recently unrooted my Note 4 following the process linked here http://galaxynote4root.com/galaxy-note-4-root/how-to-unroot-galaxy-note-4-with-stock-firmware/.
All seemed to go well until I booted the phone up and kept giving me error messages such as "com.android.phone has stopped working" dialogs and nfc service has stopped. I unrooted from stock firmware and downloaded a Germany stock firmware unroot file.
Any help would be appreciated.
May need to do a factory reset. Backup files and reset. Could Odin the firmware again for a clean slate.

If I unroot by flashing the stock firmware with Odin, does that revert my custom kernal with the stock kernal?

I used ODIN to flash the stock firmware, tried triangle away, but still says custom for device status. Anyone know what I can do? Thanks
If you use this tar in Odin it should set you back to full stock and reset your flash counter..

You are awesome. Xda was down for awhile so I had to get that file by googling it. But it worked. Thanks so much.
I rooted my phone and install a custome rom but today I tried to flash back my original rom I backup and tried to update my phone through kies and it says my firmware can't update due to a change in my firmware. My phone is still rooted and I still have a custome recovery install. Is that causing the problem? Sorry I'm new to all this. Thanks.

That's exactly the issue. If your device status is listed as modified, then Kies will not work. You basically forfeit your option to update through that program. I think unrooting would help, or just wait and flash the new 4.3 ROM that will be available soon.
This should have been posted in q&a. It would be helpful to know what specific phone you have. You say you've flashed back to the stock Rom but you still have a custom recovery? How did you flash back to stock?

I have a Samsung galaxy s4 Im377. What I did was, I used twrp to restore back my original firmware I don't think that will restore back Odin back to my phone.

If you want to restore back to stock and remove the custom recovery you should use Odin. That should let you get the ota firmware upgrade.
So I have to use Odin to put back my original firmware? Also I'm not to sure how to put back Odin to stock recovery.

When you flash the stock firmware with odin it'll put the stock recovery back on at the time. You don't have to do anything special.

Sorry for the newbie question. How do I use Odin to flash my original backup which I use trwp to create?

You don't flash the backup with odin. Get the stock firmware from sammobile.com for your specific device and carrier.
So I would download Odin to my pc than download and install the original firmware with odin? Do you have a step by step on flashing with odin? Thanks!

The attached guide is not for the i337 but the process is the same. Just don't use any linked files, except for Odin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26056924

Hey peeps.
Having a small issue,
So I decided to go back to stock, I download the latest firmware from Sam firmware.
After flashing the firmware I go into the stock recovery to clear cache and wipe data factory reset. I then setup my phone like I would and after checking the status it says that it's custom.
Some background info - I was using a AOSP ROM before flashing the stock firmware and had my SD card during the flashing process.
Anyone have issues like this? Or any solutions?
Thanks.

I had it after updating from German stock rom (DBT) to Xuenc2 (ETL). When I installed the Xuend rom, status came back to official.
So do I have to root and install a NB7 custom ROM before flashing the stock BTU NB7 firmware?

Try Traingle away app then after reseting the counter and binary to official boot directly to download mod then flash stock rom via odin. if didn't work factory reset your device and flash the rom one more time. Hope it helps

Hello, I have a bell sm-n900w8 note 3 with android 3.4. Here are some screenshots of the setiings: http://imgur.com/a/lfjal. I started out by rooting it and installing TWRP. My phone ran great. I then wanted to try a new rom so about a week ago I flashed the sm-9005 xnote rom. It worked great. The next day I wanted to use 4.4 kitkat so I flashed the bobcat rom, this did not boot though becasue I had not upgraded my phone to kitkat. I then paniked and installed the xnote rom again. Now my phone runs very hot and has terrible battery life becasuse of this mm-qcamera-daemon and the camera doesn't work. I tried unrooting it using this guide: http://www.androidrootz.com/2013/10/how-to-unrootunbrick-galaxy-note-3.html. This did not work and odin kept saying failed. Then I paniked again and went into SU and hit unroot. Now I have a phone that just barely works and runs out of battery very fast.
Can someone help me unroot and reset my phone to what it was like when I first got it?
If you need any more information about what I did, please feel free to ask me, in this case you are the experts.
You have to flash the stock firmware using Odin. You can download it from sammobile.com.

How do I fix the thing were I can't upgrade the phone because it is modified?
You can upgrade it but you have to use Odin to flash the 4.4.2 firmware. Again you can download it from sammobile.

I bought a s4 and it comes with version 4.4.2. Is it possible to downgrade back to 4.3???

Odin the 4.3 tar. Your data will be wiped when you flash the tar so backup what you need to hang onto first.

If son rise tool the ota to 4.4.2 or odined 4.4.2 then he CANNOT go back to 4.3 with using Odin.
Yea follow post number 2 if you want a $500.00 plastic brick.. lol
What if he installs a custom recovery then data wipes the phone stock ROM and Odin's the 4.3 tar ?
Where can I find this 4.3 tar. I look everywhere and most of the download links are dead

Did you even read what @daniel4653 & @Daisflaque posted? You CAN NOT revert back to 4.3 once your on 4.4
