I have 4.2.2 with baseband: 1337MVLUAMDJ and I just downloaded the latest firmware from sammobile for my provider (Telus Canada). Can I simply flash this zip from CWM or is there anything I need to do (besides backup?)
Thanks
Mate,
Flash it via ODIN by selecting it from the PDA section...

Do I need to wipe or anything before I do this? Do I need to update anything else?
Thanks

Hello! I rooted my S4 today and installed the CWM recovery and flashed my new rom which is the Foxhound 2.0 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303239. I have had my older device rooted and i have flashed couple roms with it (huawei ideos x5) and i didn't want to lose all my files and apps from my S4 while flashing this rom, so i didn't do the factory reset thing. I wiped my cache and dalvik cache and then i flashed my rom. As soon as i got it working i was hyped and so on but i noticed that the Settings app was missing. I looked via root explorer and it wasn't in the folder /system/app/. I looked from the magical internet and didn't find anything. Nothing at all. I tried installing some setting.apk's but none of them worked. I downloaded the stock android 4.2.2 rom and copied the settings.apk from there but no, it didn't do anything. I tried also installing those setting apk's but it says 'app not installed'. I had my backup of the android 4.2.2 in my phone but when i tried to restore it to my phone, it said something about m5 sum thing or what it was i don't remember. If you have any clue, please help. I'm lost and i need guidance.
Sorry if there is some bad English, i'm from Finland.
In cwm restore settings, uncheck the check md5 sum. It should then let you restore the nandroid
I messed it up

Download Odin ver 3.07. Download firmware for your device from sammobile.com. It'll be a zip file. Use 7-zip to extract the .tar.md5 file from it. Use that file in Odin, PDA slot. Only have auto-reboot checked in odin.

It looks like firmware ending in mga is what you need. Sammobile doesn't have firmware for Finland so I'd look for another counties which has the last three characters as mga.

You're not going to be able to back up your apps if you can't boot into your phone. They will be gone when you flash the stock firmware.

You're going to have to 're-root and put a custom recovery back on. Have you done that yet?
Guys i have i9500 and i need help, here's what i did
open odin 3.09

Start the phone in recovery mode and do a full wipe. You will lose all your data so I hope you backed up first

Pull the battery for 10 sec and put it back. Then press and hold power+volumedown inorder to reach download mode. Then flash the stock rom again via odin.

I have done that plenty of times... still doesn't work..

WHAT???? don't understand what you just said..
Provide all info before asking help multiple times on the same problem.
Which model exactly ? I9500 or I9505 ?
Which type of brick ? stuck in bootloop or what ?
Can you enter the download mode ?
Before flash random firmware have you try using Kies and the Emergency Firmware Recovery ?
Hi there,
Is there a way to flash any kind of working 5.0.2 ROM on my A300FU without ODIN? Somehow I managed to erase the OS without backing it up first.. (I know.. i know...)
I don't want to reflash the whole thing again... Root, install TWRP and so on...
Thanks a lot!
Never mind that... An admin can delete this thread.
Reflashed latest Lollipop from Sammobile, re-rooted, and also updated TWRP to latest version.
Let the CM12.1 come!

Thank you I got I think this one is made for France but I cant turn on wifi it just turns of any ideas howto fix?btw if you have build for croatia tmobile can you give it to me?thanks for all of your help
No problem if it's for France, the drivers are the same... Try to wipe data and cache from recovery first, and then reboot in download an reflash.
On wednesay i'll be back home with access to pc and send u Croatia version if still needed.

Hi all,
I am starting a new post as I could not post in the
[ROM](5.1.1 TouchWiz)Tazzy-aurora-Note3-Full note 5 port Stable T-6.1 (19-1-2016)
area, being new and all.
So I flashed:
1. Kernel_Cleaning_AudaxL_v2.9
2. [5.1.1]Tazzy-aurora.Note3.Full.Note5.Port.T-6.1.zip
and now my phone is not registering on the mobile network.
PLEASE HELP!!
Upon restarting I get a message at the top of Samsung screen logo in Red:
kernel is not SEANDROID enforcing.
Thanks
B.

I have used CWM recovery 6.0.4.7 to wipe and flash.
Try to flash the latest Modem and Bootloader with Odin, I think you can find them on Audax page. Good Luck!

No, go to Samsung updates.com or Sam Mobile and download a firmware for your phone. Firmware is an orginal "rom" for your device From Samsung, and flash it using odin. Your problem could be with the efs files, I had that issue Too with my note 3, you should always back up Your efs files.
Goodluck!
The rom on the phone is probably not compatible with the phone's current modem and or bootloader.
I recommend flashing the latest stock rom via Odin, make sur everything works, then install twrp and a custom rom.
