Check OP for links. But honestly may want to look at MC2 instead.

Can I use this to downgrade
Hey guys. I realize this thread hasn't been active in a while but maybe someone can help me. I just got a note 2 and it has vpubmk4 on it. I tried to root it but im having security issues and super su just keeps being blocked. Will stock restore ma7 work coming from the my current build. I am trying not to brick this thing. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

If you use odin you can flash a recovery then in recovery flash mc2 stock with counter reset and you will be good.

Hey thanks for the answer. The stock android recovery is still there, I never flashed cwm or twrp, I used cf auto root. Since the stock recovery is there, can I just use odin to flash the ma7? Sorry I should have been more clear in my first post. I'm not a total noob, but nevertheless, still a noob.
Ok update. Super Su updated and took care of my knox issue, so now I can go ahead and install twrp and flash a custom. I know this might be off point in this thread, but the whole reason I was trying to downgrade was to hopefully get qpst to read the the phone, It says the phone is there but wont access the efs. If anyone has any insight I would appreciate it. Thanks again

1. You can flash any recovery or rom, but you can not use odin to do this stock rom. It will try to change the bootloader and will fail.
2. For qpst. I cant help you there sorry but hopefully someone else can.

Ok thanks a bunch, the last thing I want to do is brick this. I tried installing an ma7 custom but it just has the same pubmk4 as the software version.
No problem. I bricked mine the day the ota dropped but quickly found out that the stock mc2 and counter reset would work.
If you want the ma7 baseband just find the hurricane modem thread and use it. It actually has all of the modems for sprint in one convenient aroma install.

Flash MA7 failed: "SW REV. Invalid magic string."
I tried flash (from 4.4.2) the MA7 ROM found here:
http://www.rwilco12.com/downloads.ph...Restore/Rooted
But when I tried to flash it using the ODIN, it failed with RED warning "SW REV. Invalid magic string."
I googled but no related clues.
Is the above place the right one where I shall get the MA7 ROM?
Now I cannot even enter the recovery.
Please advice.
Thanks.

The issue is you cant downgrade bootloader through odin. You would need a modified tar that does not have the bootloader. Why exactly are you wanting to flash ma7? It is a very old release.

Because I'm in process of Mod the SPH-L900 to be able to take GSM carriers like TMO/ATT

And I was instructed to do MA7 since it appears to be the one contains all the modems, if I understand right.

31Well, since we haven't seen a full restore available for MA7 I'm going to do what I did with MA5 and make one clicks for all but the modem.
If the situation changes I'll repost with new one clicks.

I agree with you 100% on all accounts! However, setting up another metric system is beyond me and I haven't had the time to explore it at this point.
And although multiple people could use the direct links as a favorite or post it elsewhere it also helps if the people in our community don't post those links where thousands of people can do the same thing they did and further directly link to the files. I provide my site for all to use and have no problems sharing. I do however have a big warning in the threads themselves asking people not to use direct links. A little common courtesy/respect is all I ask for in exchange for my hosting the files.
