Hello guys,
I need help My Samsung note 3 n9005 was rooted before and i flashed the stock rom on it and try to root it again. i was able to finish flashing CWM by using odin no problems encountered, but when i tried to install supersu by booting my phone to recovery mode it shows . recovery booting.. seandroid enforcing and after the phone reboots and boots to normal mode.
I already tried different version of Odin and CWM, also tried TWRP and Philztouch but still no luck.
I know i can access superuser by using CF auto root by cf auto root comes with default recovery and wasn't able to install custom roms via zip file.
i hope you all guys can help me out here.
TIA.
i am trying to root and install custom recovery on official I9500XXUHOA indian firmware but unable to install recovery through odin. the odin process completes without any fault but when i run recovery mode, i get to see the official recovery only. tried 3-4 times with different recoveries.
please help.
I have a Note 4 - 910G (India) currently running 5.0.1
I have managed to root the device. I can confirm that I have root access with an app like root checker. And yes, I've managed to trip Knox. At the custom boot screen, it shows Knox status as 0x1 (4).
My problem is that I can't install TWRP or any other custom recovery. I have followed the usual steps to install a custom recovery with flashify, TWRP installer and adb commands. Each time I try, the device reboots into odin mode (high speed) mode only. I then have to flash a custom recovery with Odin and the device reboots. However, even then.. if I try to boot to a bootloader, it still goes into the odin mode.
Is my device completely borked? Can I still install TWRP and then CM12.x on the device?
Any help/pointers would be appreciated.
I too have a note 4 sm-n910G. I think ur TWRP file is corrupted or you got the wrong file. It should be easy to get custom recovery. I rooted my Note 4 using CF auto root and it had CWM recovery which i tried to flash in Odin but it wasnt working. So i changed to TWRP 2.8.1.0 and it worked perfectly. Maybe try changing the TWRP file, or use a different one like CWM or philz recovery. Good luck...
Hi,
I have searched these forums and i am surprised to see that i am possibly the only one with this issue. I have previously rooted and flashed custom roms on my note 3 (SM-N9005) without issue.
The last flash was back to stock 5.0. Now when i try to flash recovery with Odin it does pass then i reboot manually into recovery and i either get boot error odin mode or it just reboots. When i flash a stock firmware the phone does not wipe even if wipe partition in odin is ticked.
There are a few roms i'd love to try out but i'm stuck on the current stock as i cannot flash recovery on my device. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
It looks like you flashed something wrong which mada all these problems
Try to use kingroot or any other app for rooting other than the traditional method
Root it and use rashr flash tool from play store to install recovery
Phone is a SM-N910R4 US Cellular. Was rooted by Odin then unrooted by King root. Now unable to root using Odin and current non root is unrecognized and unable to update system. Any ideas on how I can either get system updated and/or rooted again ? Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thx in advance !
try with Smart switch,it will recognized your phone ,and tell you if you have or not have update for your phone.
I also have problem with root and dm-verify verification failed in recovery ,so I couldn't update my phone OTA ,but I was having update OTA,I was downloading and trying to install it and every time its failed until I didn't install SMART SWITCH,and easily update phone to latest firmware.
which method of rooting your phone you trying to root?
I was having problem with magisk,and every time I failed to root,so I use superSu , superSu cf auto root.
for rooting phone:
I was first install through Odin TWRP for my model
then download superSu-v2.82-201705271822.zip
put that file on my SD card and download to TWRP recovery
then flash that file through install in recovery
and you have rooted phone.
works for me so perfectly that i dont have one problem with rooting.
the second way:
its also through Odin
download Cf-auto root and flash it through Odin
than you can easily download from play store Official TWRP app and install recovery.
for me,this is the best and easy way of rooting phones.
