can you do this coming from a custom rom?
Yes you can.
Not to be a jerk... but if you bought a device to sell...
Why don't you put in the work of searching for this answer that's been gone over for over a year?
You are trying to make money doing this... usually jobs require effort.
just got my i717R(locked with Rogers), tried to root the gadget but failed.
I flashed with the wrong BOOT.IMG file and the cellphone keeps stuck on SAMSUNG LOGO screen.:crying::crying::crying:
I have wiped the factory data and partition from the android recovery mode, which is the original one not CWM one.
Also once I tried to connect with ODIN and flash a CWM recovery, but it seems disconnect with the computer.
What should I do now? Please help !!!:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

There is another problem. The Kies forced to stop update the rom automaticlly which really drived me crazy.
And I think the problem is that Kies is not able to connect with my cellphone.
Anybody can help???
Can someone help me uninstall cyanogenmod procedures and restore my ATT note SGH- I717
The phone is acting up big time:
Shutting off on it's own and sometimes reboot by itself, also it flickers
Thank you

That's funny because it works for me! Are you sure you put in SGH-I717 in ALL CAPS?
Here's another method.
Download this file http://www.mediafire.com/download/g7gn29h7nu63id5/I717UCMD3_I717ATTMD3_ATT.zip
Extract (unzip) the firmware file
Download Odin v3.09
Extract Odin zip-file
Open Odin v3.09
Reboot phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
Add the firmware file to AP / PDA
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait a few minutes

Sorry you're having trouble. I've never came across someone with a loop at optimization before. Maybe you can try to re download the file and repeat the process again. You might have a corrupt download.

Warning don't apply risky changes that can seriously mash up (brick) your phone or resulting in a unstable frequently crashing system. Some changes can't be rolled back. So only apply risky changes with outstanding knowledge of the android system. Otherwise you have flash the (original) Stock firmware including the root tar for SM-G318H again and reinstall all your apps.
