Here is the TWRP open recovery tar you need:

You don't need to extract anything, simply flash this TAR file using Odin.
Good luck!

You've unzipped 1 too many times.
You need the .Tar file.
Flash this in PDA section of Odin and you're good to go!
I would recommend formatting cache, data, system and preload in CWM first.

Good idea is to KEEP a copy of the stock rom for these little incidents... It is easier, and sometimes the only way, to flash the stock rom after a bad flash...
If you have the I9505 I would suggest buying Mobile ODIN... It makes flashing ALL roms so much easier... You do need to root the phone 1st though with PC ODIN. After that you can flash the tar files through it or the custom rom zip files... Mods can be flashed easily too.
since no one has suggested a nandroid backup, i am going ahead and doing that.
i have found it to be the most helpful when things go wrong

That's not the complete firmware. Go to sammobile.com. You'll download a zip and extract the .tar.md5 file from it. You'll flash that in Odin.

Restore to Stock Warranty Return

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

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.

Flashing Rom

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