how to fix s3 neo i9300i wifi greyed out, but bluetooth still working
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I KNOW HOW TO FIX! I TRIED EVERYTHING BUT ONLY ONE THINK HELPED! so if you used odin to flash it than it's very IMPORTANT TO KNOW which version you used? 3.09 or 3.07 so why am i asking? so if you downloaded firmware with multiple files(YES CHECK IF IT HAD MORE THAN ONE FILE) than you must add all them to your odin 3.09 like BL file to BL, AP to AP, so on don't just use one file if it have multiple files in(check firmware zip,rar folder when extracting)... so if you add all the files as you should than it will install modem driver as well otherwise it won't and tada it will still work! remember: IF YOU UPGRADE WITH SINGLE FOLDER USE ODIN 3.09 PDA. if you have multiple files to upgrade use odin 3.07. other versions can be good as well but i know that this two is different and totally working. got that, bro?

Just make root, install Root Explorer or any file manager with access to system. Go to system/lib/modules/pronto and copy pronto_wlan.ko for system/lib/modules and rename for wlan.ko
A friend told me it works...

how to flash ddjp6 official indian froyo via odin?

i am asking this question bcoz i have flashed the official froyo for asia dxjpa
and the flashing way via odin was different cozz pit file 513 is used for flashing it.
so i wanted to know the right flashing way for ddjp6 froyo .. via odin
i downloaded the firmware ddjp6.. and it contains only one .tar file
so i just wanted to know the perfect flashing method
please dont advise me to do it through kies...
thanx
You can flash DDJP6 via odin the same way you flashed DXJPA without using any .pit file and it will work. As I have also flashed the other asian versions without using any .pit file (no .pit file recommended for firmwares with only one file on sam firmwares).
So How does the pit file affect anything ? I flashed DDJP6 with the .803 pit file. I take it that shouldn't be an issue ? Also, is the boot Galaxy "S" animation from the pit file ? I don't like the one I got from the asian froyo with the disjoint s... Does the Indian froyo have that too, or the one from eclair ?

Not sure about what exactly .pit file does but had a problem installing DXJPA earlier with .803pit (failed to flash) then tried with .513 and worked well.
haven't noticed the boot animation.
Did u move from 2.1 or unofficial 2.2?
i have a question..
if there is one tar file, should i put the file in just pda or PDA,PHONE AND CSc and then flash?
PDA for single tar file

Check my signature if you want PDA MODEM & CSC seperately for DDJP6.
You can also try to use XXJPY PDA, JP6 MOEDEM & CSC.

I clarification after flashing with Odin will all the setting & data reset to factory.
Or will all the personal data, Games, applications will remain.
One more thing if the Re-Partation in Unchecked (Not selected). Will the Odin keep my data as it is on the phone or it will reset to factory settings.

I Just Cant do anything to my Note 3 n900w8, WHY?

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, just an opinion. Search around G928G modem.tar and flash it by CP tab of odin before flashing the firmware. Than try flasing firmware. If fails again, remove modem.bin file from firmware(dont know how to). Otherwise extract the whole files from firmware, delete modem.bin and make the rest files as firmware with proper tool(TAR maker or else). Good luck.

[SM-G935F] Odin won't flash my s7 edge?

Hello!
I'm trying to install a rom which requires me to update/flash my Bootloader & Modem to the MM ones. Now I'm running into a problem where Odin will freeze at certain parts and after a while it fails writing the file .
I've tried odin v3.10 & v3.12, I've tried different USB- cables & ports and I've enabled USB Debugging and OEM Unlock in my developer options. Any other possible suggestions :fingers-crossed:?
Thanks in advance.
I managed a glimpse of the zip file you downloaded from the ROM thread.
1. BL_G935FXXU1BPJG.tar.md5
2. CP_G935FXXU1BPJG.tar.md5
You're using Odin3 v3.12, and it's clearly stated md5 format is an old model of updating home binary. New versions will only accept .tar files. This would explain the write errors you're getting.
Updating of bootloader and modem require .tar files to be flashed using the BL and CP slots respectively. I suspect you would only need to rename the files to .tar for them to work, but pls clarify with the ROM developer.

Bricked G950F with Empty efs folder

Hi guys, a few months ago I tried to install a custom rom (LightRom) and I was stupid enough to not backup my EFS folder. It stuffed up my Sim card so I tried using a tutorial which said to flash a file called fix.regalstreak. After flashing this my phone was hard Bricked and after flashing TWRP, my phones EFS was empty and no ADB command could fix it. I still am unable to boot into any ROM or stock - even though I can get into the custom Roms install page and my EFS folder is empty with no backup so how do I fix this?
Note:
When flashing stock firmware, if I try to use a pit file with combination of AP, BL, CP, CSC it fails, but if I flash AP, BL or CP it works so CSC has an Issue I think.
However, when I flash with no pit file my phone gets stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S8 screen.
Sorry for the long post
I had the same problem but I managed to solve it by downloading the file: https://www.mediafire.com/file/z0z69kilpala6tu/EFS-SM-G950F-31-08-2018_03-48-37.tar/file after opening in odin put the device in download mode, use odin 3.11.1 open the file in the AP tab then press start, after the procedure, install twrp and install a custom rom I recommend the hades rom 2.0, the stock rom doesn't work the only problem and the device has a null imei
Thank you so much I have been searching for answers everywhere and you have saved my phone
