Restore to Stock Warranty Return - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

About to do a warranty on my Galaxy Note 3 for VZW but I had it rooted with kingo and safetrap installed I removed safetrap and wanted to know what else I need to look and do to ensure that is back to stock and not recognized as modified as well as where do I go to determined everything is ok onces all is done. Appreciate the help:silly:

Wrote this previously for another post, but once you flash the .tar file, you'd be pretty much as stock as stock can be:
-------------------------------
I used Odin v3.09
Downloaded the .zip file in az_biker's post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2543386
Extracted the .zip file to get the .tar file
Opened Odin.
Click the AP button.
Browsed to folder containing .tar file and clicked Start.
Sit back and let it do it's thing.
When it's done, you've updated your phone to JE

No screen after firmware flash with odin

hey,
i've updatet my note with odin 1.85 and the firmware "N7000XXKK9_N7000OXAKK9_N7000XXKK5_HOME.tar.md5".
My problem is that my note has no screen any more. I hear the sound im able to unlock my screen (without seeing it) but there are only the sounds of my note. I've flashed a second time (not easy to get to the note to the download mode without seeing anything.
So what can I do now?
My note was rooted first also by using odin and the CF-Root-SGN_XX_DBT_KK9-v5.0-CWM5.zip
have you any idea what I could try now?
greetings flo
From your description, you did everything right. But you may get a corrupted file. Download the same file again from the below source. (You will lose your root access, but I'm sure you won't mind re-root it later).
Here are the steps I did to make my Galaxy Note GT-N7000 work after a scary day:
I found a place to download firmware at:http://fus.nanzen.se/
just in case you can't see the link: h**p://fus(dot)nanzen(dot)se/
(from Hoffighter's posting) http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1350960
I downloaded Fus Check Downloader 2.1 and downloaded Firmware N7000XXKK9 (for Germany). It will automatically decode the .enc2 file to.zip file
I extracted the .zip file generated from decoding file to a folder and I got
"N7000XXKK9_N7000OXAKK9_N7000XXKK5_HOME.tar.md 5" file.
I downloaded Odin3 1.85 (search "odin3 1.85" in XDA Dev forum)
opened Odin3 1.85, attach the file .md5 to the PDA field on Odin.
I went to download mode on mt G-Note (Power + home + Volume down)
and click start. It took about 6 to 7 minutes to do the flashing.
Just remember to put the .tar or .md5 file in PDA only..
my display is back

Thanks for your post I tried it 3 times but it won't work. The screen was still black.
now what I did:
I downloaded the files from here: http://www.samsdroid.com/2011/11/samsung-galaxy-note-n7000-flashing.html
I did it like they subscribe step by step
** Open Odin3 v1.85 software
** Check Re-Partition, Auto Reboot, and F. Reset Time options.
** Check and select .pit file ( looks like Q1_20110914_16GB.pit )
** Check and select PDA file ( Looks like CODE_N7000xxxxx_CL627135_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5 )
** Check and select Phone file ( Looks like MODEM_N7000xxxxx_REV_05_CL1067428.tar.md5 )
** Check and select CSC file ( looks like GT-N7000-MULTI-CSC-Oxxxxx.tar.md5 )
after the first reboot my display shows an error by receiving the tar files.
I did the same procedure a second time and my sgn retourned with Kernel 2.3.5.
Im happy now that my sgn is back!
thanks a lot

NC2 back MJE

Can someone please point me to best instructions on how to revert NC2 back to MJE. And how to root MJE. Thanks
Go to android development section.
Find dutchdogg54 post with the firmwares.
Download the mje rooted odin file.
Or download the mje stock unrooted file.
Extract the file.
It will not be a .md5
Place the file in the pda section within the odin application (on computer)
*side note- do not press anything other than the pda button in odin. You will destroy your phone*
Put phone in download mode.
Make sure odin sees your phone in the COM ports and then you can hit start.
It will auto reboot. And you're good to go.
Odin versions do not matter

You said to download the "mje rooted odin file". I am unable to locate that file, do you have a link for that?

As I did not post these files, you'd have to go to the source to find out. But from reading what it says in the thread, this is strictly a STOCK only version of 4.3. Unless it specifically states otherwise, I would take this to mean that this is NOT a rooted version of this stock file. Get in touch with dutchdogg54 to make sure, but I'm going to have to say no that it's not a rooted 4.3 rom.

Cannot get past this

I followed some instructions here given to me to put a custom rom on I updated to the NF1 baseband just fine and rooted it fine but I have downloaded and redownloaded TWRP and cannot find openrecovery-twrp-2.7.2.0-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar after extracting it therefor leaving me nothing to be able to run/install any direction as to why I am incountering this? Thank you P.S I think I just solved it I downloaded the zip file not the .tar

Here is the TWRP open recovery tar you need:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45687485/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.2.0-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar
You don't need to extract anything, simply flash this TAR file using Odin.
Good luck!

N910W8 Custom Recovery?

Hi Everyone,
The Note 4 is my first Android phone and I've been doing a lot of reading the last two hours.
I want to install CyanogenMod because I hate the TouchWiz look. So I discovered I need to root my phone and install a custom recovery. I've rooted my phone successfully but I cannot find the Note 4 listed on the CWM website.
So how do I install a custom recovery on Note 4 N910W8?
TWRP http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/266
Thanks for the link!
Do you happen to have install instructions?
I see a .img, .tar, and a .zip file.
What do I do with them? My first guess was to download the .tar file and use it in Odin with the PDA button (like when I rooted with CF), but selecting the file crashes Odin so I assume that is incorrect.

I downloaded the IMG file one and then I installed the Flashify app from the Google play store and used that to install the IMG recovery.

Can i install stock ROM(zip file) using TWRP? N910F

Lot of confusion please help i want to go back to stock for my gear VR
According to
this thread where i posted photos of my phones INFO
I downloaded N910F( UK BTU) 6.0.1 firmware (.ZIP) file
When i tried to flash using TWRP it says ZIP file is corrupted.
I downloaded it from two website
sammobile
and
samsung.org
both are corrupted(it should not be i think)
When i look into it it has only one file .tar.md5
i tried to extarct it using winrar and it says file is corrpted
\BTU-N910FXXS1DQFA-20170726090446.zip: The archive is corrupt
Although it extracted the N910FXXS1DQFA_N910FBTU1DPL1_N910FXXS1DQA1_HOME.tar.md5
In both files i got the same result same
i dont know what to do now
I tried Odin and it stuck at "there is no pit file partition" or something like that
(yes i wiped out cache and system delvik etc.)
I also tried inserting PIT file but no luck
i would prefer without Odin if possible
As I can go into TWRP recovery
Please guide me or at least answer a few question
1. Is it even possible to flash stock rom using twrp like i flash other roms?
2. Can i install extracted .md5 file from that zip? will it be the same like stock zip?
3. Why my Both zip files are corrpted? your opinion?
4. Should i download again same stock rom?
5. Can / Should i flash or download and /or downgrade Stock firmware (same 6.0.1 )but different release date?
6. Am i downloading the right firmware for my device here is my device details posted??
Lot of confusion please help i want to go back to stock for my gear VR
Based on the amount and type of questions, I believe you need to read up on basic Note 4 flashing/customization knowledge first. Go and read up on the stickies.
Without knowledge and experience, we can tell you how to do a brain surgery, but doesn't make you a surgeon.
No, twrp cannot be used to flash stock rom. Stock rom are most of the time md5 files, used by ODIN only.
Since you downloaded the zip files, use the "Test" function to see if it is corrupted?
Maybe you should just flash a stock based custom rom with VR and be done with it.

==================================================
Check your Winzip version. It may be old and doesnt handle large zipfiles too well. I had the same problem but I know the file was good as I downloaded it at work, and Winzip worked just fine; but when I got home, winzip failed on my pc - old 8.1 version. I used the trial version just fine to unzip.

Did you keep the ROM as a Zip file when you loaded it in to Odin?
Do not unzip the ROM file.
Try again.
