Help please!!

So I was attempting to flash GummyICS to my dad's Motorola Milestone X through CWM. I flashed and rebooted and the phone only reboots to the M splash screen. Can not get into CWM or stock recovery. I did create a backup with CWM but cant get into it to apply it. Heres the real issue, I have read that the fix for this is to flash the .SBF file. The problem with that is that we go through a local carrier (Cellcom based in Wisconsin) and I cannot find the .sbf for our carrier. Thank you for the help.

Find A milestone x sbf file (a newer one) and flash it using the Linux disc method. That way it does not change the radio. Remember google is your friend.

1. Try updating though OTA.
2. If that doesn't work, search for your phone over at SamMobile.com and download the appropriate firmware, then flash through odin.
3. If that still doesn't work, ask for a system image fron people with the exact same phone.

here is the update.zip JellyBeam 4.1.2 i437UCCMB3 for Samsung Galaxy Express i437
https://hotfile.com/dl/204284141/36ba13f/2400258.cfg.html
Rename it to update.zip and save to sdcard and enter recovery mode UP + Home + Power
then just apply the update from sdcard
The phone must be unmodified i mean no CWM and no ROOT*. If it doesnt work try to flash the cellphone with the stock rom
http://hotfile.com/dl/204763916/e45faeb/I437UCALI6_ATTALI6_ATT_USA_ATT_Android_4.0.4.zip.html
and then just update

The links for it are down.
Does anyone have any new links?

Please beware that this file is meant for model SGH-i437. I don't think it will work on I437P variant or I437Z variant...
Here's the new link,
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1_4qtY7UWjpcFNIZE1yTTFRVzA
To install follow these steps:
1. download the file
2. place file in root of external sd card
3. power off phone
4. go into recovery by pressing: power button+volume down+home button
5. look for something that says: install update from zip or from external storage or something along those lines
6. click on the file downloaded from the link above.
7. select install
8. select "yes-install)
9. after instalation is completed the phone will go back to the way it looked when you first got it and powered it on
Thanks to Herson for getting me this file!

OTA 1.89.707.2 Asia WWE for the M9+

Here is the link for the 1.89.707.2 OTA Update for WWE ASIA.
https://mega.nz/#!es4VzZQD!cmuHcgE-HLa1cKaT0mOxsNc2Oy-JwwhgBcgnu9zzWSI
and the recovery which was extracted from the OTA is here. Please correct me if I am wrong cos I guess flashing this recovery will enable us to receive OTA updates in the future.

Hii, friends,
Is it possible to use the stock recovery 1.90.709.3 instead of 1.90.707.3 ??
If no, where can I find the stock recovery 1.90.707.3 ?
My phone bought from Malasia (but "Made is Taiwan" printed on the box) Model is HTC One M9 Plus...mid is: 0PK71000 and cid HTC__044
I'm afraid I flashed unsuitable twrp to my phone (TWRP 3.0.0-0 hima.img) and phone is stuck on the recovery mode at each time. This is why I think, I have to flash stock recovery again then flash the the uppropriate twrp.(If I find )
If some one help me I'll be appreciated
Thank you

[FIX] Note 4 Exynos N910C/H/U Bootloop issue + Restoring EFS partition

If you have checked out, downloaded and flashed RaymanFX's latest CM13 Unofficial Nightly ROM for Note 4 N910C/H/U users here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...-cyanogenmod-13-semi-official-builds-t3259878 chances are you failed miserably at getting back to Samsung's Stock Firmware as you have encountered a series of unending bootloops. The bootloops exist because your downgrading from Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow (CM13 ROM) back to Android 5.1.1 Lollipop (Your previous Original Samsung Stock Firmware), however if you've received the Android Marshmallow Update for your Note 4 model number and region as an OTA Update from your device or Manually by downloading it from sammobile.com or any other external link and have flashed it before flashing CM13 no need to worry you won't need a backup of your Samsung firmware (Unless you want one) as you can perform a clean install of your Samsung Marshmallow Firmware via Odin v3.10.7 Here is where the fix lies; i have compiled a series of posts from 2 very helpful XDA Members from the community because from my experience i have managed to rescue my device using their methods which i will mention below.
Firstly if you have made an Efs partition backup from your previous Original Samsung Stock Firmware in the form of a .tar or .img file e.g "efs_backup_2015-06-01_02-37-16.tar" or "efs.img" respectively then you are good to go if not leave this thread.
Also you will need to download a Note 4 N910C/H/U Pit file corresponding to the region of your Samsung Firmware so here is a link to a selection of pit files. You will need to create an account at sammobile or simply sign if you have a current account to see the download links here: http://www.sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30022
Follow FR34K-B1B0's helpful post on getting back to stock here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65414257&postcount=39 Skip the 1st Step since we are restoring our IMEI using our backed up Efs file and we will be using a different method to restore this backup.AND AFTER ODIN IS DONE FLASHING THE SAMSUNG FIRMWARE there is a chance that your phone will boot to the Stock Recovery and you will notice a message down there saying: "dm verification failed" so simply wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache and then reboot. Afterwards your phone should boot properly. Now close he's post and carry on down here.
After your phone boots up and you have set it you will notice that your mobile is not connected to your specific mobile carrier and you will see the Emergency calls only text on your lockscreen hence the Not registered on network error. Go to Settings--->About device--->Status and scroll down and you will search and find that your IMEI is literally not the one your phone has and that your Serial number is of an Android Serial number given to you from flashing CM13( Since it's a pure stock android software). If you want you can download the Phone INFO App from the Playstore to verify your device's information and if you do so you will notice that your Samsung Serial number is a bunch of 0's like this: 0000000000 or it's not even present hence wiped.
HERE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART FOR RECLAIMING YOUR MOBILE NETWORK CONNECTION, your IMEI is wiped and so you must restore it using your Efs backup file which i mentioned previously above. To do so you will need to root your device and the guaranteed way of rooting your device is using Chainfire's CF-Auto-Root Method.
Here are the links to the Odin flashable MD5 files based on your Note 4's Model Number that you must download ---> For SM-N910C: https://download.chainfire.eu/559/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-trelte-treltexx-smn910c.zip For SM-N910H: https://download.chainfire.eu/577/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-tre3g-tre3gxx-smn910h.zip For SM-N910U: https://download.chainfire.eu/557/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-trhplte-trhpltexx-smn910u.zip After downloading the file on to your computer simply load the file through Odin, power off your phone and boot it to download mode then connect your device to your computer and flash the md5 file. After it's done flashing your device will boot to a custom screen with a red android logo then it will boot.
Right now your device is rooted and you will see the Supersu app in your app drawer. Next if your Efs backup is stored on your computer and is of the format .tar simply open it with 7zip or Winrar you will find the .img present then extract it your desktop. In order to restore your IMEI with this .img file we will need an update package that we can flash from a custom recovery(CWM or TWRP). Here is the link to civato's awesome flashable update package: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2331853 and you'll find the package down in the attachment. After downloading the attached file, rename your Efs backup file from "efs.img" to "EFS.img" then extract the contents of the downloaded update package to a folder with the same name of the package, copy your EFS.img file to it and use 7zip or Winrar to add the files to an archive(.zip).
Last but not least copy the new repackaged flashable zip to your external or internal sd card. Run Odin and flash your desired Custom Recovery(CWM or TWRP). Boot to the custom recovery and flash the update package and finally reboot system. After booting your phone will have it's Efs partition restored; your IMEI and Samsung Serial number will be back and your mobile network will be back on again. :fingers-crossed:
Special thanks to FR34K-B1B0 for he's helpful post on getting back to stock firmware
And Many Many Thanks to civato for he's really useful Efs restoring update package! :victory:
And last but not least thank you Chainfire for your great CF-Auto-Root Method that helped root our device(s).
