[Q] PLEASE, Need urgent help unroot my Att Galaxy Note 2 Please!

If you flashed the rom package successfully you did it from a custom recovery. Now you need to replace it with stock.

Here are the relevant files....

CWM AT&T i317 UCUBMK6 Stock *Recovery* Note 2

Here are links to custom recoveries specific to the I317 (AT&T Note 2):

PhilZ Advanced CWM Edition
TWRP Recovery

Have you tried to Odin back to a stock 4.3 ROM.

You might want to try the one click.

Think I have it somewhere let me check.

****Also you probably don't have a sim card read problem it was probably just the SE Linux settings that were making it seem like you could read the sim card. ****

Sorry to jump in late here, but here are a few thoughts:

1 - You have the MK6 bootloader, so download mode will show you should be running 4.3 firmware

2 - Non-functional sim reader, so no ability to upgrade via OTA

3 - Sending phone to the service center with MH3 firmware might be a red flag given (#1) above.

Question (to dicksteele) - have you tested whether Triangle Away works to clear the counters other than the Knox warranty flag from a rooted MK6 firmware with the MK6 bootloader (assuming that Knox has been disabled from AOS?). If the answer to this is yes, then a cleaner approach would be to do the following:

1 - Flash the MK6 Stock rooted Odex package (Odin or CWM) - if CWM, a custom recovery needs to be flashed first (you may also need to flash the MK6 tz.img - I will have a link up for that on my MK6 thread today)
2 - Boot phone, update SuperSU, run SuperSU, update binary, disable Knox
3 - Install Triangle Away - either buy from Play Store or sideload most current from XDA thread
4 - Flash a custom recovery and then flash the stock MK6 recovery
5 - From phone OS run Triangle Away and reset flash counter - follow instructions and when done reboot to phone - not to download mode
6 - (optional) here you can power down phone, boot into download mode and confirm counters have been cleared
7 - Boot phone OS, run SuperSU and from Settings select Full Unroot

At this point you should be good to go. The only thing not covered here is Busybox, which will still be present in /system/xbin. If the service center goes looking for it they will see it. To remove that would require some additional steps prior to step #7. If that is of interest I can provide them, but I will need to do that when I get home from work this evening. Actually, a simple solution that would work would be to remove the busybox binary from /system/xbin using 7zip prior to copying to your phone for flashing in step #1. This might not work by itself though. You probably also need to extract, modify, and reinsert the updater-script from this folder - META-INF\com\google\android and remove the lines toward the bottom that reference busybox - there are two - one that sets permissions and one that runs the install.

If you'd rather not do that, I can make the mod and upload a de-busybox'ed version temporarily - assuming DS can verify that TA will work on MK6.

Here's the main page for ATT GN2 TWRP - http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/124

Options for Odin, DD, recovery flashable. I assume you want Odin, which is toward the bottom of the page.

Thanks for your quick reply. I was indeed on 4.3 when I rooted the phone. ABout knox, I may have done it without knowing. how was I supposed to trip knox? I hope I did not. Regarding the sim card, the phone definitely has a problem: we have tested several sim cards from different companies in it, but it does not work. before that, I even went to my company, changed my sim card. That new one worked in my friends phone but wouldnt work in mine. the first day it had just a bit of signal then 2 days later, no signals at all. Please let me know about how I was supposed to trip knox, so that I see if I did it or not
Thanks
