Hello,

I'm trying to look for the fresh stock rom of SGH-I317 rom so I can flash my phone back to normal. I owned this phone since 2012, I had it rooted and everything else. Last night, it decided to do something funny and now it gets stuck on samsung logo/battery and I can only access download mode for the time being.

So I assume I have to factory set everything and lose data--which i don't care about anymore.

Can anyone please help? Thank you. Stock rom is what I need and Odin as well. Thanks again =)

Adam.

As far as I know there are at least 4 different STOCK versions of SGH-I317 firmware namely 4.1.1 4.1.2 4.3 and 4.4.2. 4.1.2 is the same as 4.1.1 but it has SIM unlock backdoor closed. 4.1.1 is interchangeable up to 4.3 with certain limitations, as soon as you get 4.4.2 you are stock to it.
4.3 is my personal favorite but I can't seem to find clean AT&T ROM for some time now (everything else is available).
If I were you I'd start powering up the phone while holding home and arrow up buttons, do "wipe data/factory reset" follow with "wipe cache partitions" and you should be golden :)

Thanks replying. Unfortunately.. I tried getting into recovery mode but it just won't let me. when I do that.. it only takes me back to the samsung logo. I really really don't know why...

Right now I only have access to the Odin Mode and it comes up as

Product Name :
Custom Binary Download : No
Current Binary Samsung Official
System Status : Custom

See that's the thing. I need the stock rom so i can flash it lol. I asked it a few times before too ^__^;; . The good thing is, the battery still works fine .

Now on Odin.. I get many failed attempts..so I'm not sure I have the right stock rom.

edit : I tried that method..didn't work ....

Just gotta read and be patient. Hope u get all straightened out. Keep us informed on progress.

With the phone in download mode, is there anything on the phone about knox or warranty bit? If there is, the phone can't be flashed with any stock ROM from sammobile.com.

REALLY??? Please show us the link for upgrade! As I said there is no OEM 4.3 ROM at sammobile :(
I was told many many times that AT&T (and this is the one we are talking about) 4.4.2 ROM can not be downgraded!
I tired the downgrade and yes the system will go down to 4.1.1 but it would keep the 4.4.2 bootloader so the phone won't charge while being off (making it pretty useless).

@audit13 : I've the phone since 2012. I think Im getting a new as is but I know this phone can't be done just yet. if I'm able to access download mode that should warrant itself the possibility of it being fixed. Just need that thread to follow those directions =)

Good Morning, thanks for the link.. But I'm already lost at which one I'm supposed to pick. Can you provide a link to that thread, please? Thank you

OMG, my bad.

Does the phone say anything about warranty bit or knox in download? If it does, the phone can't be flashed with any ROMs from sammobile.com.

Ok.. so if I download both of these (or which one do you prefer? ). What else do I need to download? I do have two versions of Odin.

So i tried it on Odin 1.85.

I get something like GET PIT FOR MAPPING?

edit 2 :

Can't open the serial(COM) port after setup connection
