[Q] gt-n7100 update to latest omni rom problem - Omni Q&A

Hi,
when i arrived to the step when i need to install the rom (zip file) , in recovery got error which says:
this package is for "t03g,n7100,gt-n7100" devices this is t0lte.
i know for sure that my device is n7100.
can you help me please?
10x.

phliz recovery
could it be because i installed phliz recovery that is for lte mode and i have n7100?
the page that i downloaded from said it works for n7100,n7102,n7105, but in the file name was lte. "t0lte/philz_touch_6.07.9-t0lte.tar.md5", where it says LTE version.

Flashing a recovery explicitly for the n7100 should solve your problem. Assuming that you want use PhilZ, try this one: http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/n7100/philz_touch_6.15.4-n7100.zip

Hi,
Thanks for the reply,
I've tried to flash via zip the appropriate version before you replied (philz_touch_6.07.9 n7100 zip)
And again got a message that the package is for n7100 and mydevice
is t0lte.
Will your link be different?
i took it to the store for checking, and they said that they tried to install stock rom but its not booting... strange.
is this can happen because i installed a wrong recovery and did format /system ?

If you formatted /system, Android won't boot until you flash a new ROM.

I know, but I can't install a new Rom that's the problem,
It says, when I tried install n7100 4.4.2 omni Rom, that this is
A package for n7100 and my device is t0lte, I think
It says that because of the wrong recovery. Again i try to
Install new recovery via zip from the recovery itself and it says
The same error.
I gave my device to the store to check and they tried install
The stock Rom with no success via Odin..
Any help appriciated
Thanks.

Then you have to "force flash" the recovery via PC using Odin, heimdall or flashboot.

Hi,
Can you tell me exactly how to "force flash" via odin?
Step by step?
Btw, if I have omni Rom, zip file, can I use Odin?
Thanks.

In recovery, as you already know, I did format/system.
What the /system do exactly?
Is it because that I flashed recovery for the t0lte version
I get the error? Or because that from the wrong recovery
I did format/system?
I just want to know why I get this error when flashing rom: "this package is for t03g,n7100,gt -n7100 devices this device is t0lte " when
my device is n7100.
Thanks.

Use Odin/Heimdall to flash an appropriate recovery for your device.
You somehow managed to install a t0lte recovery. You need an N7100 recovery

Help to flash firmware, knox is 0x1

Help!
I need some advice. I had stock 4.2.2, flashed omega v14 and then 4.3 GE ROM. I did not know about knox and I have tripped it. It shows 0x1 now. I understand that I cannot change that, and that is ok.
But I cannot flash any firmwares now.
I have tried the pre-rooted 4.3 in Odin:
I9505XXUEMK8-PRE-ROOTED-KNOX-FREE-ODEX-FULL
failed.
I have tried official 4.3 for my carrier:
I9505XXUEMJ7_I9505TENEMJ8_I9505XXUEMJ7_HOME.tar
failed.
If I try to flash cwm it boots, but it just stays on the google logo, and does not continue. If I try to enter recovery I get a message about secure mode and it does not enter recovery.
If I flash stock recovery, I can get into recovery. I have tried a factory reset, but it still boots to Google logo and nothing else.
What should I do? There must be a way?
Same issue with me. Looking for solutions. You can install Pacman rom without any problem.
Can someone please give me some pointers?
I have now tried to install the newest firmware from sammobile, even though it isn't for my carrier. It also fails in Odin. I am using 3.07. I can flash CWM and I can get into CWM now, but there's nothing on my sdcard. So I can not flash anything from CWM.
Is it possible to load files onto CWM when the phone won't boot fully?
Is there a firmware I can flash in Odin that will work in this situation?
Should I try Kies? Will Kies be able to sort this out?
Right now I have a brick.
Try a different usb port, different cable, make sure kies is not running in the background and try Odin 1.85.
Make sure you're not mixing up "SDcard" partition on your internal storage with your EXT-SD Card the one that you physically inserted into the device! Save the zip into both maybe and wipe cache, factory wipe, then flash the ROM. Try another cable and USB, try a different recovery e.g. Philz!

During the failed flash-attempts, my sdcard is now empty. I have no files in CWM to flash. How do I get the files to my card? I don't have an external sdcard.
Trying Odin 1.85 now with latest firmware from sammobile. Right now the phone will not boot, I can't flash anything through Odin (due to knox?) and I can't flash anything from CWM since there are no files there to flash...
Edit:
Odin 1.85 also fails. I cannot install any firmware now.
Knox will not stop you flashing with Odin. It won't really affect anything except, potentially, your warranty.
Where have you put the Zip file for the ROM you want to install? You need to point CWM towards it directly, whatever folder it is in... Are you doing that?
You could buy an SD card for a few quid and copy a ROM onto that if needs be... I would flash Philz recovery and Wipe Cache. Wipe factory reset (install a new ROM Option), click Install from SD Card and navigate to the folder.
If your entire SD Partition is wiped you'll need to hook up to the PC and copy the zip back over in download mode.
EDIT: Sorry if this is real obvious or I'm missing what's wrong. I figure if you're anything like me you're a bit anxious about this, just going step by step, we'll fix it!

OK so i haven't got an S4 but i do have the mini and have a similar problem.
MJ7 got released but not for my country, so i flashed an AUS MJ7 firmware. Now it has been rolled out to my country and i cannot flash my original FW back due to different CSC. AUS CSC=MJ1 & UK CSC=MK1. (Failed in Odin)
so my theory is i cannot now flash any other regions firmware and stuck with MJ1 CSC. (AUS Firmware)
Can you remember the original FW you flashed when you had knox 0x0?
Hope this makes sense. I'm not getting any replies on S4 mini forum.

I had CWM. Tried to flash stock recovery now, but I can't boot into it. I do the usual, then a green android shows up, then shifts to lying on his back with a red exclamation mark over it. Then the phone reboots and stays at the Samsung logo.
I am soon ready to give up. Nothing works!

How do I copy a file over through download mode?
I have tried adb shell with CWM booted, but I get "unauthorized device error"
I think I will buy an sdcard, but that won't solve my problem with not being able to flash anything with Odin. But perhaps I can get a working rom flashed through CWM.
I had no problems flashing roms with odin before knox. Now I can not flash anything at all.
Edit:
I have also tried connecting to kies now like this:
http://androidcentral.us/2013/09/how-to-fix-firmware-upgrade-encountered-an-issue-on-kies/
I get a message saying model GT-I9505 does not support initialization.

Boot it into download mode and copy the zip over with windows explorer, into the internal memory. Navigate with Install from Zip option in CWM (maybe try Philz, it definitely works for me, with Knox 0x1) and install.

OK. I went out and got an sd card. Copied over a rom zip to the card, flashed CWM and rebooted into recovery. Chose install from external sd card and ran the file. The setup started and ran for a few seconds, then the phone rebooted and I am back on the Samsung Logo.
I just can't flash any firmwares on this phone no matter how. Knox or not, but it all started when I tried to reflash stock rom using odin after the knox flag was triggered.
Any more ideas?
Edit:
just tried Philz recovery also. Same thing. Update runs for a few seconds then reboot. No go.
Edit 2:
Philz has the option to clean for installing a new rom. It also fails with this:
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p27
I suppose this as something to do with nothing being able to flash here. What Can be done with this?
Edit 3:
Success!! I was able to flash Omega Rom V14 through Philz. I actually installed and is running. I do get two knox lines at boot, one yellow and one red, something about the kernel not being something...
Now to investigate what the h*ll happened.
I am still unable to install any firmware through Odin. Going to try the Google Edition 4.3 again since I kind of liked that. But what actually happened here?
I'm happy to hear you got it working! I have no idea what caused it, first thought is corrupted zip files for rom. I'll have a look into it.
Sorry didn't get back to you, fell and injured my back, had to go get injections!

Mj7 is not a 4.3 rom. Have you tried to flash any stock 4.3 rom (for example ubuemk1 fob latam) or any other you are sur to be 4.3? Samsung alerted clearly before updating to 4.3 you won't be able to back prior versions any more...

Solved! I do not know what solved it. I managed to install Omega Rom V16 through Philz recovery. From there I rebooted into Philz again and did a total clean to install new rom.
I downloaded a newer Odin, 3.09.
I flashed the same firmware which failed yesterday, 4.3 NEE rom.
This time it worked! So something helped.
Thank you to everyone who chipped in. It seemed rather hopeless yesterday.
I know the feeling man but is possible you were downgrading and you can't do that with knox now.

You can try flashing TWRP it support usb mount on recovery then transfer OMega Rom again..
Kies wont work on your phone because your already in the custom status.

SHV-E330L Custom recovery install impossible??

I have a shv-e330l (Samsung S4 from Korea AKA GT I9506) I really want to install Clockwork Mod Recovery but it looks as though the file for Odin is not available from anywhere. The one I did find was for an S2 and miss labeled as shv-e330l. I had to re partition the pit file on the device I thought it was bricked but I was able to save it. Im just looking for a good file for Clockwork recovery.
Hello and welcome to XDA
Already tried to look here?
I suggest to flash TWRP since CWM-based recovery is no longer supported. Download this file and Odin, then follow the instructions under "FIRST INSTALL FROM ODIN (v3.07 or higher):" in this thread. Remember to install USB drivers if you don't have Kies installed before doing anything above

Samsung SM-N9005 (without rom) with TWRP v2.8.3.0 can't install any zip by error

Hello to everyone,
The other day my brother bring me his samsung galaxy note 3 sm-N9005 and told me that doesn't work, just only can enter in TWRP (v2.8.3.0) or in download mode. I tried to install a rom and update version of TWRP, but always i have the same message:

When i try to install a ROM from zip file, i have the same problem
I try to generate a md5 file from zip TWRP in computer and then copy to sd card and install from TWRP by sdcard or internal memory of phone, but always i have the same problem.
I dunno what else do. Please can anyone help me?
thanks

Post does not make much sense.
I suggest flash stock rom via Odin first .
There are some major flaws:
1) There is no Android 4.2-designed TWRP for the phone. You must be using wrong file.
2) Why are you trying to install old version?
3) File name is completely wrongly formatted.
For the solution, I assume the phone has or will be having Android 4.4 KitKat or newer.
You have 2 options here:
1) Download twrp-2.8.7.0-hlte-4.4.zip and install it via current TWRP recovery (can not be done in stock recovery).
2) Download twrp-3.0.2-0-hlte.img.tar and install it via ODIN.
This is the site to find the correct files - https://dl.twrp.me/hlte/
To previous poster - Flashing stock firmware does not help achieve his desired result. Just a waste of time.
continue without installing
Hi Someguyfromhell,
Thanks for reply i have some doubts and questions about you reply, but first of all i want to tell you that i dunno anything about android so when you tell me some words i don't understand i'm iOS user.
In point 1) when you say "there is no Android 4.2 TWRP what do you refer? Because in any moment in my first post i don't say anything about 4.2.
In point 2) when you refer to install old version do you refer about TWRP? Well i tried this one, because new ones i can't install by odin. When i do it, and all process finished, phone don't enter in teamwin option, always reboot.
3) Can you explain to me about why file name is wrongly formatted?
Well i tried to install TWRP 3.0.2 by odin, but as i told you, phone don't enter in TWRP application, just appear in main screen where there is samsung galaxy note 3 SM-N9005:
Recovery booting...
Recovery is not seandroind enforcing
set warranty Bit: recovery
And don't move from this screen...
When you say install TWRP v2.8.7.0 via current TWRP recovery, how is this process? i try to look for in internet, but i didn't find anything. Can you explain to me?
About ROM, well as i told in first post now i don't have anyone, because always appear the error about MD5 and i can't install nothing can you recomend me a ROM and where to download it and how to install of course!
thanks a lot!

I have exactly the same problem. I've watched dozens of videos and even when it shows no md5 file found it still installs. Mine does not I've tried to flash different roms at least 10 times without success. My phone was rooted when I bought it could there be a problem with the routing. Cheers

I don't know where you got such file from though. Does not seem to be an actual zip file if it fails flashing. Or the recovery script is messed up.

My bad, that feature is only on 2.8.4.0 and newer recoveries. You will have to flash the recovery with ODIN.
What happens if you try to flash a ROM? (which ROM and send logs)
Also, you do not have to create MD5 file. It is there to check for the archive integrity, isn't the reason for flash failing. Has to be another error.
Hi again,
Well i did process about TWRP V2.8.7.0 as you told me by odin and worked well, so now i have this version of TWRP
Thanks.
About ROMs, I downloaded few ones like:
1) N9005XXUGBOA5_N9005XEOGBOA4_XEO.zip
2) SOKP-L-5.1.1-LMY48B-R4.0-OFFICIAL-20150613-hlte
3) XEC-N9005XXUGBOK6-20160122145457.zip
4) N9005XXUGBNL8 5.0.(7z) ---> This one is 7z file where inside have 4 files: AP_N9005XXUGBNL8_CL3643614_QB3415922_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar; BL_N9005XXUGBNL8_CL3643614_QB3415922_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar; CP_N9005XXUGBNL8_CL3643614_QB3415922_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar and CS_OXA_N9005XXUGBNL8_CL3643614_QB3415922_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar
And tried to install, by this process:
1.- Copy 1) , 2) and 3) to ROMs to sdcard in PC, 4) ROM i think that is only for Odin, but i dunno how to do it
2.- Ejecute TWRP in phone, I copy 1) , 2) and 3) ROMs from sdcard_external to internal memory of phone in folder sdcard.
3.- In TWRP i go to Install option and choose the ROMs.
Well so I Tried 3 first and only the 2) tell me succesfull, but then not boot roms, appear a message on the top right that says: "kernel is not seandroid enforcing set warranty Bit: kernel".
with 1) and 3), says me about error, that no MD5:

First and third are zip files, that are not recovery-flashable - inside the archive are the original firmware files that can be flashed via Odin. Only (custom) ROMs, that have recovery-script inside zip file, can be flashed in TWRP.

My note 3 n9005 rooted won't install custom roms. Every time I do I get an error.

So my note 3 n9005 always comes up with an error whenever I try installing custom roms. Even with Cwm or Phil touch recovery my phone gets bricked. Any help

File package not supported if I remember correctly. I am on stock lollipop rom rooted
Check phone model by booting to download mode first .
Sent from my SM-N930F using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Rom should be zip file and flashed as zip through custom recovery .

I use rom manager to flash my Cwm. If flashes fine then when I reboot phone it goes back to stock recovery then into download mode

In certain cases, custom recovery won't stick after reboot. The stock firmware will replace it.
Best procedure is to untick "Auto-reboot" in odin and flash TWRP or Phil'z, then manually reboot directly to recovery.
<I use rom manager to flash my Cwm>
Thats your problem . Dont use rom manager at all .Multiple identical posts on the forum .
TWRP is better than CWM, in my opinion. More custom ROMs seem to be more compatible for some reason with TWRP.
