Return SPH-L720 to stock FW - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Good Day everyone, I am looking for some directions to the correct section. I live in Australia and have a Sprint SPH-L720 S4. I would like to take the phone back to stock S4 firmware, as the phone works awkwardly in Australia. Any help please? Cheers

Follow the first 6 steps in the instructions section of my ROM thread (linked below). Substitute OD2 for whatever firmware version you desire to flash. Just know that you can't go backwards, as in you can't flash older firmware than what you are on.

Thank you I will give it a go. I bought this phone from a guy, not knowing it was a US Sprint phone.

Depends on which one you choose. OD2, OH1, and OK3 are all Lollipop firmware.

Your odin flashing sequence failed. Repeat the odin flash procedure with that screen up until successful. Make sure you're plugged into at least a usb2.0 port on your computer, and using the original usb cable that came with the phone.
If you're unsure of what baseband you originally had, your best bet is to flash the latest firmware
If you can't get the latest tar to install using odin, try to run cf autoroot through odin. It has been known to fix that error,
The OP should really come back online and let us know of he has been able to fix the problem.

There is no direct firmware to flash. You have to Odin the NB1 tar first, then flash the NC1 update. There is more information in Post 5 here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51130818
Keep in mind, I do not have a sim unlocked phone, so I have no idea what effect, if any, Odin back to ATT stock will have on that aspect.

Nice link.
Did you look at the link I sent you? It has a link to the files you need. UCUFNC1 was only a small 20MB update. Probably why it's not showing up on your link.

That's because it's referred to just by OA3. Why does he need a modem?

I would try www.sammobile.com for the firmware. I downloaded it from there before I had to return mine.

How to Undo root and accept latest updates

I just got a phone back I rooted for a family member two years ago solely for the purpose of obtaining hotspot. It has stock rom.
What info can I give you that will enable you to point me in the right direction to uproot and sell without issue?
I've been away from this kind of of stuff for a couple of years.

Thanks for the tip, just now getting around to it.
Are you saying to go to the firmware section and download the latest firmware?
Isn't there something I have to check , like making sure the PDA matches my baseband version or something?

No, because this will change your Baseband as well.
Thanks- just take the top one for sprint and follow the instructions sounds like. Appreciate the tip! Anywhere where this download is available at a faster clip?

Yes, you are correct. I don't really see a difference as long as you use the HOME CSC when installing the Full Download version. I originally put the TMB version on my phone as it came out weeks in advance of TLS but did install the TLS version once it came out.

That might be a question for someone more in the know... I have been flashing my phones since the S2 and never had any issues so I am not sure what the effect would be if you are correct. When I flash my phones back to TLS using ODIN, I still get OTA updates. Maybe that is because I only buy factory unlocked phones, I don't buy from carriers.
