Hi, I have a N910F in the UK. I was on stock BOC5 rom loaded via OTA. I then rooted via cf root and loaded twrp all succesfully. I took a back up and stored on external sd card and internal. I then saw stock BOC5 deodex so thought i would try. Downloaded the file and it failed to flash. I then used my ext SD backup and that failed, so flashed internal, all was good.
Then the crap hit the fan. I then thought if I went official BOD2 from sammobile then flash the deodex maybe better. Downloaded BOD2 and went through odin, it failed saying the file was too large. i then did a search and found a Pit file, so used that in odin too and failed at the same. went to recovery, it booted into download mode saying to connect to kies. Tried that and my comp didn't recognise phone. Reflashed cf root and twrp, all worked but can only see ext SD. internal says 0mb. i get boot with both samsung logos but then says decrypt and to reset phone. i have since downloaded a couple of sammobile roms and a couple of roms flashable in twrp and no luck.
anyone have any ideas or suggestions? I know this is probably back to samsung repair.
quick update. downloaded newest version of odin< downloaded 3mobile uk version and went through odin with this pit file http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3135354&d=1422307712. this worked, rooted, installed trwp, installed my ext sd back up and all worked fine.
Ok, another update, I have lost efs. i used kies to go back to stock rom and used my twrp back up to restore efs. it passed in 1 sec but nothing in the efs folders.
i do however, have correct imei, connect to wifi, etc it does however have the wrong serial number showing. does anyone know why twrp isnt restoring EFS?

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 most likely had I9505TENEMJ8 or the one before that (MJ5?). It is Norway TEN. I have downloaded the latest for TEN, MJ8 and it fails in Odin. Right now I would be happy just to be able to flash anything at all...

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.
So?

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.
let me start by saying I've read almost all your threads only reason im actually bothering is because I'm really feeling like smashing my phone to bits .... that's how frustrating this has been. my phone was rooted and custom ROM till about 4 weeks ago, when Tmobile told me the IMEI on my phone was reported as stolen ... i grabbed my box as my phone i have since it was new and compared the IMEI ... to my surprise IMEI on box and on Phone chasis was not same as the one inside phone .... my phone was unblocked by a local unblocking service here in PR so i went to them and surely they took my phone and lent me another one while it was getting fixed ... "IMEI" was being changed again and it wasn't the one on the box either ... the gave me lame excuse about my IMEI .... they kept my note 3 for a week almost 2 after i got it back my note 3 said it was rooted but i couldn't use any apps for rooted phones as it would say i didn't have root access ... as i no longer trust these people i went on and tried fixing the issue myself ... and here's the thing i have tried absolutely everything cf auto root tar from download mode and even thru odin all versions of odin and using the sm-n900w8 cf auto root and the right roms "different one's to see if it was the rom's or the phone" i am about to give up i simply cannot root my phone so that i can install a modified rom ... thought of contacting you guys ... as my last resort ... i am so sorry to bother i know you guys are very busy ... but if you guys cant help i will have to settle for just a regular note 3 and that sucks... i have picture of absolutely everything i have tried and the outcome and the errors i have gotten and all in pics if needed...
Please pardon me for asking for a little help i really thought i could done this i guess i am not as savvy as i have thought...
Thanx in advanced Emilio Pinella
Does the IMEI on the box match the IMEI on the label attached to the battery compartment?
Have you tried using Odin to get back to a completely stock ROM, flash TWRP, and flash supersu from TWRP?
Ok here we go ...
Yes IMEI on box and phone chasis are same ... the different one is when you press *#06# ...
Secondly i have tried usin odin but absolutely all the files i downloaded are in .zip and odin does not recognize any of them i tried to convert from zip to .tar but it crashes odin thats why i have tried it from recovery mode ... even CF auto flash for sm-n900w8 doesnt work odin does recognize phone so it isnt a driver issue ... maybe if i had apropiate files in right format i could try flashing from odin ... but i dont and i cant find the files in .tar which is what odin recognizes ... as i said i have really tried almost everything ... i have been wondering can it be possible these people lock my phone in a way i could not do anything? ... will wait for your replay ... my phone sucks @The Moment i havent downloaded anything as i am factory resseting everytime i try a new method ... just fyi i do activate devops and usb debug after each wipe ...
Use 7zip or WinRAR to extract the zip from sammobile.com. Once unzipped, it should give you a tar. md5 file.
hello again...
well i was certain of my answer but before i started writing i had doubts so i went and open all the files i have for flashing with odin ... and yes none of my .zip files have any .tar files in them , i have no clue why they are zip files if they are intended for use with odin ... so i went to sammobile.com and yes i had downloaded the 3 files pertaining to my cel phone and tried flashing the stock rom but none of them worked ... some just werent recognized and some gave me whole file signature error or signature failed error ...
i have Tesla-hlte-5.1.1.High_Voltage.2.1-Release-20150824 and its a zip and has no .tar, inside also have cm-12.1-20150423-UNOFFICIAL-temasek-hlte-V10.4 and also no .tar inside and its in .zip format, also have X-Note_Build_15_ND5_Public and yes its a zip and no tar inside...
SM-N900W8-4.4.2-(KOT49H.N900W8UBUCNI1) is my original ROM and it does not have .tar inside ....
something they all do have in common is they have an img file inside that cannot be open ...
and i downloaded files for twrp but jajaja also in zip and no tar inside , just an image file wich is not recognized by odin and not recognized by recovery mode either as i have tried putting all these files in my sd card and have tried doing from recovery ending with results of .... whole file signature failed and signature failed error and also wrong footer error i have pic of all this ... would you want me to send them to you i wouldnt mind... btw thx for your time i really apreciate it.
If the files came from sammobile.com, they are defnintely tar. md5 files.
How many times are you unzipping the file from sammobile.com? The original file from sammobile.com should only be unzipped once.
Well after last replay i went and downloaded all 4 available files for my note 3 from the one dating at 2013 to the one with 5.0 lolli i will do this again tonight and will post the results ... i am certain they will be the same as last time but can you please remind me of steps to take using odin and which odin should i use as i have a few versions .
Once again thx for your time .
I like Odin 3.07 which is what I always use.
If you use Odin 3.07, put the phone into download mode, open Odin 3.07, place the tar.md5 file in the PDA box, uncheck everything except f.reset time, connect phone to computer, flash, when you see the word "RESET" in the status window, remove USB cable, remove battery, replace battery, use button to boot into recovery, perform a factory reset, wipe cache, reboot.
Ok
I will do this from home as soon as i get there and i will post results any specific one you would want me to start with?
Start with a rom that matches the bootloader currently on the phone.
Ok
Hmmm is bootloader the number after model example UBUCNC1?
Yeah just checked and bootloader would be for my current 4.4.2 N900W8UBUCNC1 .... Also says that latest firmware is one of the firmware i downloaded the one containing lolli 5.0
So you downloaded the cnc1 from sammobile.com and there is no tar.md5 file after unzipping?
Just got home
I got home im unzipping and i will let you know in about 2 minytes if there are tar.md5 inside what i downloaded ...
Ok so far so good
All have .tar.md5 in them so i will try flashing with same rom version i have 4.4.2 to see if then i can root and flash a cutom rom ... tell you in a few minutes how it went... wish me luck.
ok finished
i finally got to flaSH WITH odin and now my phone is 5.0 lolli ... can you guide me on how to flash root with odin as cf auto root does not work i took picture of what it did when i tried to auto root tell me where to send it .... or can you tell me where or who might have tesla 5.1.1 high voltage rom or X-note in .tar.md5 format ...
once again thanks for your time and understanding all i need now is to be able to root it so that i may install custom rom after i actually find them in .tar.md5 format.
Find twrp here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2494245
Get the latest 2.8.7 or any 2.x.x 4.4 .tar.
Then get SuperSu flashable. You can google that.
Flash twrp with odin.
Flash SuperSU.zip with twrp.
It's rooted.
If you want to flash a custom rom just flash the rom of your choice in twrp. No need to root first.
Sent from my SM-G925F
Root is not required if you want to install a custom ROM, just install a custom recovery. I recommend flashing TWRP.
Find TWRP for your device from here (make sure you download the tar version of TWRP): http://teamw.in/Devices/
Supersu 2.46 is here: https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU Download and save Supersu to either the internal or external memory. If you put supersu on an external memory card, power off the phone and put the card into the phone.
Boot the phone into download mode.
Open Odin and uncheck everything except f.reset time.
Click on PDA/AP button and put TWRP into the box.
Connect the phone and flash TWRP in Odin.
When you see the word "RESET" in the status window, remove the USB cable, remove battery, replace battery, boot into recovery, flash Supersu, and reboot.
Ok will do now and tell you if anything ... but i read somewhere this version of android is unflashable ... but i will try what you are saying .
Which version of Android is not flashable?
Ok i gotta say if it wasnt for you i would still be stuck ... fortunetly i am riding 5.0 lolli and my phone is now officially rooted all i need to do is get tesla's 5.1.1 high voltage on it and i will be good ... so basically just need tesla in .tar.md5 to be good ... all thx to you .
Where can i download it or now that i have twrp as my recovery can you guide me thru on that? ... thx again.
Hey guys so recently needed to revert my note 4 to stock mode. Somewhere something went wrong and i bricked my device. I was able to get it in to download mode but Odin keeps failing. Prob because my device keeps saying kernel is not Seandroid enforcing. So this went on for a few days. I even tried twrp zip files still fails to flash. The only thing i was able to do .... found someone else's twrp back up file and used it as mine and voila, it worked the prob is that that file was from another note 4 model. So. Its running but keeps rebooting and restarting and freezing.
So if anyone out there with T-mobile stock or other phone can make me a twrp back up file and send it to me or upload it somewhere so i can use it as my own . Thanks everyone
Also i there a way to mount phones had to a computer, wipe everything and reinstall everything from kernel to system to recovery to OS. Cause my phone wont except anything except twrp back up files . Thanks again
Have you tried to flash a stock rom from sammobile.com?

I'm a little confused about the title of your thread. The model number for the T-Mobile Note 3 is N900T. You're posting in the wrong section if you truly have the N910T, which is indeed the Note 4.
But anyway Lol, the "seandroid" message is normal for a phone that's rooted and has a custom kernel flashed. It just means the built in security enhancement isn't being enforced. That wouldn't cause Odin to fail while trying to flash a recovery.
If you're still having issues, your best bet would be to flash the full stock firmware with Odin and start over. It will flash the full system, kernel, and recovery. Here is a link to what you need. It's N910TUVU2DOK2 and is the latest 5.1.1 build.

Sorry for the typo. I do have note 4 n910t as i said before odin fails every single time. Tried reinstalling isb drivers, changing usb slots and cable. Twrp failes to write zip file. The only thing i can do is back up and restore using twrp. Thats why was hoping someone has or make me a twrp back up file of a n910t.
Hi all,
I bricked my phone installing nougat and after i formatted all. Now my phone can start in download mode only or loops on Boot logo.
Ca anyone help me to fix it? How can I find the right OEM firmware?
Thanks.
Hi. What do you mean by formatted all? If you formatted system your os is gone and phone won't boot.
Check updato for firmware fownload and flash with Odin.

You got twrp recovery? If you do, you probably wiped system partition too.
You don't need to flash pit, bootloader etc. You can just flash any custom rom to get it booted again.
Otherwise you'll have to download firmware to flash in odin. You probably need one starting with FXXU3 if you was updated to latest MM version, or N.
I wiped all. Can you guide me to download right file?
I know there might be another similar topic but I couldn't find any help so far.
Basically two days ago I flashed custom ROM on my phone, I didn't make any backup. At first it worked perfectly. I decided to flash ROM again and formated my phone and found out that EFS partition was lost. I didn't get any mobile data and my IMEI number was lost (0000000). I've read that IMEI is actually stored on some chip so is there any way to restore it back? My phone is Samsung Galaxy A5 2017. Any help will be appreciated.
Trying to flash latest stock rom from sammobile but after flashing it with odin it starts bootlooping and saying "no command" again and again. When holding power + home + volume up I can NOT access recovery. Any solutions, please?
Anyone? Is there any solutions for my problem??
Is it possible to downlaod EFS file for my phone and somehow change IMEI in the file?
just flash stock rom, i did on my galaxy ace i flashed custom rom and imei gone, after stock flashed via odin imei back.
Thanks for your answer! I tried indeed flashing latest stock rom from sammobile with latest odin. But when I bootet phone up it said "no command" with dead android logo and kept bootlooping. I can try different version of rom, maybe it helps.
Still my problem is unsolved. Any clues what to do would be great.
You probably flashed a wrong firmware which is not for your variant.
Can you remove your battery? If so remove it and put it back and enter download mode by pressing volume down,power and home button. Afterwards, find the firmware which is for the specific variant of the phone. Only get the "HOME_CSC" version or else you will lose all you data. In odin, if it says added, flash the stock firmware and see if it boots to the system. If you could give me your variant, I could help and give you an even more detailed guide.
