I have TWRP recovery installed, but no backup - HELP
I have my IMEI number at hand but have no idea how to fix this.
I've been spoilt with my Nexus I think...
You will have to flash a working rom. Do you have any on you phone that you no work. If not you will have to download one on pc and move to your phone to flash in TWRP or use odin.

So I'm kinda a newbie to flashing ROMs I just got a galaxy s4 back in November and the official kit kat update killed my expirence with the s4 so I got a refurbished s4 with mk2 baseband and from what I've read the bootloader was locked. I'm on sprint but I've been flashing away like no tomorrow and yes I've been making nandroid backups and everything incase something goes wrong. (I've soft bricked my phone 4 times) but I'm just curious on how to get back to my stock mk2 rom? I've tried restoring my backup from twrp and can't get it to boot it just get stuck in a bootloop. Any help would be really nice.
how to get back to my stock mk2 rom?

Thing is I only have access to my phone. I don't have a PC I use my phone and my gfs phone to do stuff. Is there anyway to download a flashable zip and install through twrp

If you REALLY want a complete wiped stock phone you'll need a PC (or Mac if you use Heimdall).
If you want to try something (with NO garuantees that'll work and not brick your phone!) you can try Mobile Odin Pro. It'll flash .tars BUT it will not flash the modem. And, like I said it may not work or worse.
So...
Find a PC, download PC Odin 3.07 (or 3.09), Downlaod the tar. Run Odin as administrator and then flash phone. DONE.
guys ii really need some help.
i downloaded BTU-N9005XXUENB7-20140310153913 and flashed it via odin while in download mode. the flash was successful but now all im seeing is "recovery booting" on the phone and its just staying there?
ii was on stock rom 4.3 rooted with custom recovery before flashing the 4.4.2 file in odin. have i f****d my phone?
i did the same thing as i did last time iand it worked but im not sure whats going on here?
please can someone help me please:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Same happened to me when i used mobile Odin. The bootloader wasn't updated.
Did you use Odin 1.85? And did you tick the option update new bootloader? If not do that.
If did that then wipe cache and data reset from recovery.

yeah i used the wrong version of odin. i used 1.85 now its working, but i didnt select update bootloader, how do i know if it updated the bootloader?
You know if the phone is up and running. Kitkat can't boot without new bootloader. So if the phone is working there is no issues.

just FYI,
if you want to flash TW custom ROM, the best you use is Chenglu CWM. So far I seldom see user complain got problem during flashing with this CWM.
TWRP, some users got problem, some are not.
Hi Guys
I'm on a note 3 n9005 a d have installed the lollipop firmware by the method shown here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/guide-t2983873
but now since I have flashed CWM recovery all it tells me is Could not boot normal and goes back to download mode. Normal booting of the phone works fine.
Can anyone help with this ?
Thanks
Richie
Flash the latest version of TWRP (2.8.5).
how did you install cwm? Try using twrp flash it using pc odin.
Thanks for getting back to my guys.
I eventually flashed TW on and it worked then tried using ROM manager to put CWM on. All this got me was a recovery loop.
The problem I have is I have a CWM backup of my phone and want to restore it but cant using TW.
Any thoughts on how to get CWM working on the phone ?
is there any 2.8.5 TWRP for SM 9005?

tried flashing TWRP through odin but it doesn't work
i could get some of my files through adb and then flashed a whole rom again but i had no signal and now i'm trying to flash modem only to get signal back
Try Flashing stock firmware from Odin it may help you
he doesn't want to wipe his data.
I think it is the only way to get his phone back
