After doing a ton of searches here and finding a bunch of confusing posts and the threads and files I found were all for stock GB and kept soft bricking my phone I went to "the cloud"! I finally found a site with the correct file and now I am back to stock and running schmoove as silk.
Anyway, should you want/need to restore your Note to stock/unrooted state, for whatever reason, here is a link to the file:http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13678253/StockROMs.net-SGH-I717D_Telus_1_20120630122852_xxzc97o421.zip
Just download the file, unzip it, put your phone in "download" mode, connect your phone to your pc, open ODIN, once your device is detected select "PDA", find the .tar file you extracted from the zip file, click "start" and that's it. Once its finished your phone should reboot and you are all set.
It will add to your counter but, you can reset that before you restore to stock if you follow the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1569206 but do so at your own risk! I have flashed the file and it works but that was me and I cannot vouch for you or your ability to follow directions
Hope this helps
Cheers!

Will this return the note to the Telus stock gingerbread rom (as the phone comes when you buy it)? My brother has been looking for this for a long time and if so this would be really helpful.

Nope. Returns it to Ice cream sandwich stock, as it would be after the update.

If he is on a gingerbread rom now then you should be able to follow the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1483113
But, if it is on ICS then you need to get the phone back to GB before you can use that method.

greetings all,
i have a new phone and unfortunately the phone came with a rom of our service provider t-mobile who but some custom apps witch can be only removed if the phone has been rooted.
of course i did some research on how to root my device but i get stuck and have no idea anymore how to root my device. i made luckily a screen capture.
could please someone help me how to root my device and send me links of file that i need during the root proces.
many thanks in advance.
Those pre-installed apps are part of your firmware, which is branded. If you want to get rid of them, flash one that isn't branded. And if you want your phone rooted too, just go with a custom-ROM.
If you need help with it, tell me what country you live in and what language you want your UI in.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
you mean just instal a custom rom using odin?
This depends on your desired outcome.
Do you want a stock ROM, a custom-ROM, CyanogenMod or MIUI?

i want to use cyanogenmod or miui, i have no idea what the difference is between them but it seems to nice.
CyanogenMod is as close as you can get to the "naked" Android. It's like the nexus-series.
MIUI is like a mix of Android and iOS. Very simple, yet powerful and allows a lot of customization.

many thanks for explanation, so in my case i should probably choose for miui, so how do i get it on my phone?
First backup your data. You will have to factory reset your phone. What language is the UI in? I assume Dutch, but I'm not sure.
You can already download Odin and the Siyah-kernel (the tar version).
Edit:
Just checked your profile. ;-)
You can find ether latest MIUI on
www.miui.nl/
Tell me once you have all the files.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
i downloaded the Siyah-kernel and also download the miui rom from miui.nl.
so what do i need to do next?
You need either Odin or Heimdall. In your case I'd go with Odin, as it's simpler to use and you won't need it much. So, download Odin and get the drivers working. Close KIES competely, put your phone into download-mode (turn off, hold volume-down & home, then turn it on) and connect it while Odin is running. It should detect your device.
I'll post the further instructions once you got everything working so far.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
i am ready
When you are ready with Odin, make sure that Repartition and flash lock are NOT checked.
Auto reboot and f. reset time shall be.
Tick the "PDA" box and select the Siyah tarball. Then hit start.
When the phone reboots immediately hold volume-up and home until you are in ClockWorkMod.
Go to mounts & storage and mount the USB-storage. Put the MIUI-zip-file on your device, then unmount the USB-storage.
After that proceed like this:
Wipe data
Install zip from sd-card and choose your MIUI zip.
Wait till the installation is finished and reboot.
If your phone does not boot, go into ClockWorkMod and install again.

GingerMOD is also very close to pure AOSP. I'm actually considering going to it because it supports TV-Out via MHL, whereas CyanogenMod does not, as far as I know. Could be worth checking out for you.
use another kernel
hi it have worked for me too, but i have a question, could i use another kernel with a stock rom is this possible, im not that smart and have for the first time a smartphone the same as karamanoglu, i just got lucky to got my phone rooted, first i did a hard reset and it got in a loop by rebooting and going to the tmobile logo back and forth, so i got frustrated and decided to root it, but i dont like the custom rom and want it back to the stock rom, but am affraid it will get a brick with my luck. can i use the kernel bokg2 and with the original stock rom from samsung but still rooted and can delete the apps from samsung if i want, sory for the bad english.
Hi, I was hoping someone could direct me to the back to stock file so I can unroot this galaxy tab 10.1 I had a friend root it for me, but I honestly, at least for this tablet have had nothing but problems. I cannot stand the inconsistancies, and lack of camera use. I did a restore to what I thought was stock, but the tab is still rooted and while I have functionality of the camera's back, the pictures are terrible and grainy.
If someone has a link, or anything helpful to get this tablet back to stock/factory settings for I'd love it. I have been currently trying to fix this. I loved this tablet until it got rooted. Please help.

I've flashed from rooted ICS to HC 3.2, and then updated back to ICS via OTA with no problems.
Unsure if this thread will even be seen anymore, but I just saw an article for the program triangle away. Since I have flashed this tab several times, I am about to send it into the mfg for repair for the cable charge problem it was having. I'm wondering. Will I need to unroot this tab again, use triangle away and reflahs again? Or is this model exempt from the flash counter?

Did you bother to browse the forums? Not to be a DB but you're literally already in the right forum to find the proper thread you need. In fact its the first sticky. Not to mention you ask this in Q&A. Questions and answers. Everything is "gimmie gimmie now" now a days. No more self-effort.

Really? Don't wanna be a DB? Too late. I know I'm in the right section of the forum. As I said, I read if you tried to flash a stock rom with Odin, it would stop at S boot, if you already accepted the VRALL4 update. Not to be a DB, but I don't want a 5.5" boat anchor. I modified every smart phone I've ever owned, with most recent being the S3. I know Big Red screws with updates, so was getting feedback about going back to stock. If you don't want to help, fine.

If you just want stock root and keep the unlocked bootloader and custom recovery, you should be able to flash this in recovery.
