[Q]3 quick questions re. 4.1.2 stock rom for restore

Hi,
I have three quick questions to ask. I have scoured this site but can not find definitive answers and so would be grateful if someone could help.
1/ What does build number 'jz054k' denote? I restored my N7100 to a stock UK BTU 4.1.2 rom from Sammobile and instead of the build N7100XXDMB2 showing, it now shows as 'jz054k.N7100XXDMB2'. When the handset was orignally stock, it showed as 'N7100XXDMB2' , without the 'jz054k' prefix. Does this prefix apply to all stock roms from Sammobile?
2/ Do the stock 4.1.2 images from Sammobile include a stock recovery, meaning you don't have to separately flash a stock recovery first?
3/ Why does the OTA update screen (Settings > About Phone > Software Update) change appearance depending on version of 4.1.2 installed? Do custom 4.1.2 roms change the appearance of this screen? Please see attached screenshots for the two sreens i've had displayed on my handset today. The first is from the stock 4.1.2 rom and includes the option to update over WIFI, the second only includes a 'check now' button.
Many thanks for any answers.

1) google doesn't name the firmware like xxdmb4 they name it like jz054k or something.
2) yes. No need to flash stock recovery.
3) yeah many custom roms do that. I don't think Sam mobile will upload a custom rom though.
Can you link to the file you flashed ?

Thanks for replying.
Yesterday, i had a fully stock N7100 running BTU N7100XXDMB2 4.1.2. I then installed the latest Philz Touch 4 recovery and the Android Revolution HD 12 rom. (I am now stock again though thanks to Sammobile).
I was not aware that the software update screen would differ between custom and stock roms (i realise that OTA only works on stock devices). I thought that this part of the Android settings just stayed the same. I would miss the option to disable the auto-check and wifi only options.
Thanks.

Hi,
Yes, i do know that which is why i have removed it.. for now.
It was just the software update screen differences which were confusing me as meant to be close to stock.
Thanks.

That's really not needed, but you still need to update your firmware/bootloader before installing a 4.2.2 AOSP ROM. If you read the CM10.1 thread, it was discovered that older (ICS) bootloaders do not play nice with JB 4.2 AOSP and will cause random reboots. CM10.1 (don't know about others) also won't install unless you're on a compatible bootloader.
To get the latest bootloader/firmware, you need to:
a) Odin to the latest AT&T JellyBean package
or
b) Download the I747 firmware package from here http://invisiblek.org/sgh-i747/ and flash it in recovery.

lol which part was uneeded thanks that is the EXACT answer i was looking for. i did find the smaller bootloader update package so i didnt have to install the full firmware..............and now i realize thats exactly what you linked to as well LMFAO sorry but thanks!!

Here is a stock rom CWM/TWRP flashable MDL for M919 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2274795
Check it out, it works perfectly.

If not for "Added minor modifications (extended power menu, init.d script, rooted, proper updater script, etc.) "
I'd love it. I guess I may be stuck with that and unmodding the power menu.
Thank you for the reply.

Just noticed, it's not using a semi-stock/stock kernel (loki of course wouldn't be considered part of "stock" hence the semi-stock). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261013 looks closer to stock, but he is saying it's not a full install.

as far as i know if i flash I747UCUEMJB bootloader i can't go back to 4.1.1/4.1.2 it will 100% chance you will brick your device.
about Modems: i know about S3 I9300 if a upgrate to new modems that for 4.3+
i can't go back becasue it will wipe my EFS/IMEI,
is that ture if i flash the new modem I747UCUEMJB it will work with 4.1.1?

Bootloader :4.3+ bootloader - YES!
I747UCUEMJB - Oct 11, 2013 + I747MVLUEMK5 - Nov 5, 2013
Do not attempt to downgrade from this bootloader. Doing so will brick your device.
Modems: ?
i know about S3 I9300 if a upgrate to new modems that for 4.3+
i can't go back becasue it will wipe my EFS/IMEI even brick ,is that ture if i flash the new modems for 4.3+

ATT Galaxy S III i747 WiFi Calling?
I have an i747 phone unlocked to T-mobile running cyanogenmod 11 4.4.4 kitkat. The Baseband version is i747UCUFNE4, which is the kitkat baseband. Can I install this rom and if so are there any specific steps I would have to follow? Would I have to somehow downgrade the baseband to the Jellybean one?
All I'm really after with this ROM is wifi calling, which I've read does work with an ATT phone on this ROM.

Quick question
I had original update from T-Mobile to 4.3 stock .... rooted and put on CM 11 M12 and added also OnePlusOne Theme ... if I want to switch to this ... do I still need to flash a modem ... I don't really know how that works ... or I just wipe and install this. Thanks

Question about Download
This may very well be a dumb question but why is it everytime I try to download a custom rom from Dev-Host file sharing system, the zip file downloads as an EXE file. Very suspicious of this, but what is it that I don't know because I've seen this on many download links for various roms!
Where's the zip file for this rom?

When I flash rom it flashes like a normal rom I get no aroma install or options for aroma, what am I doing wrong?

Hi I have a question on updating my bootloader on my phone. I have a t999l and I am running 4.1.2 my modem is UVUBNC1 I flashed the modem myself. I want to flash StockMod with TWRP that my phone already has. I was told in the main thread for this ROM that its in my best interest to update the bootloader. How do I do this without having to flash a 4.3 stock rom with odin? I'm trying not to have to re root my phone. I guess I'm just confused...lol

You have to. And re-rooting is way easier provided you have the TWRP .tar file and ODIN in hand along with the SuperSU flashable to enable root. Your model's latest ends with the letters NF4, click here for the ODIN firmware download.

Missing .tar file
I plan to do a ROM upgrade on my stock Samsung Galaxy S III SGH-T999 but after downloading the file twice, there was no .tar or md5 file on the zip folder to be used for ODIN to flash.
Below are the only files that was on the zip folder and the total size was over 1gb:
META-INF (Folder)
system (Folder)
boot (Image File)
I downloaded it from: http://d-h.st/atH. Was there another mirror link to get the correct ROM file?
I appreciate any help.
UPDATE: I figured this out by watching YT and using 7z.

Finally got it installed! Thanks Devs and for the help of DocHoliday777! Your inbox is full.
I have a question regarding this ROM.
1. Is there a way to remove some of the default system wallpapers?
2. Will i have ROM issues if i flash the latest firmware to UVUEOH1?

Look in /system/wallpaper
Thanks for the heads up on my inbox. Was gone a while and need to clean it out!
As for the firmware update, it may cause minor issues with flashing roms, but it should be just fine as far as functionality goes. Flashing roms may be an issue simply because the updater-script may not have been recently updated to include OH1 firmware.

I'll just stick with T999UVUENC2 until a new StockROM for the newer UVUEOH1 build.
