First I will like to say thanks to @dr.ketan for providing us the BL and Modem from N920G to allow the install of MM on our devices. Now that the BL & Modem is out for our device, this will just be quick How-To revert back to N920I from N920G without flashing stock download. The purpose for this is to revert just the BL & Modem to stock conditions created by Samsung for the N920I without having to completely flash back to stock.
NOTE : This WILL replace the BL, Modem, and Recovery on the device.
Recovery included is TWRP (twrp-3.0.2-1-noblelte.img)
1. Download N920I_BL_Modem_Recovery.zip - MEGA
2. Extract allfiles.tar.md5 from .zip
3. Place phone in download mode (Shutdown device - Hold Vol down, Home, and Power until Warning appears)
4. Download/Launch Odin3 v3.10.7
5. Select AP in ODIN and navigate to downloaded file (allfiles.tar.md5)
6. Deselect Auto-Reboot
7. Start
8. Force restart (Hold Vol down + Power) - Alternatively you can restart into recovery mode if wanted/needed
Done.
Disclaimer:
Please know/remember that I will not be held accountable for any bricks or malfunctions of the device, software, and or products needed to perform this.
With that said I have personally have tested this on my device running RiverRom without any issues.

Hey guys, I did a search on the topic but to no avail.
I have a pretty specific probably and am willing to pay a few bucks to anyone who can help me fix this issue.
I work for a mobile repairs place and we have an S4 9505 that a customer bought in, he took it upon himself to flash the latest firmware from sammobile which has resulted in the WiFi not working, you hit the button in the notifications panel and it goes half lit but not connected and never moves past that point. I tried flashing a different firmware and the WiFi fix from the WiFi fix and firmware post and that works initially but after one or two connections to a WiFi, it greys out again.
Thanks in advance.
Anytime there's wifi connect problem I've found that its the kernel.
Well, it is official firmware so there shouldn't be any software bugs. Unless, maybe, he flashed the wrong firmware on the wrong phone model.
check the wi-fi mac addres or make and efs restore, that happend when the files in efs/wifi/ where messed with, and thats a bad thing, flash a custom rom or flash a custom kernel see if it works
@Nationalmaverick
Hello,
You should try to flash the latest stock Lollipop firmware available.
-Download Odin 3.10 here
-Download and install USB drivers (skip this if you already have Kies or drivers installed)
-Download the firmware I9505XXUHOB7 here
Open Odin3.ini (found in extracted Odin package) and edit PhoneBootUpdate from 0k to 1, save and close. Then:
Extract downloaded firmware
Download and extract .pit file from the attached zip
Open Odin 3.10, choose PIT and load the extracted file
Load following files from extracted firmware: BL in BL, AP in AP, CP in CP and CSC in CSC
In Options, tick Repartition & untick Autoreboot
Put the device in download mode: power off->Volume down + power key->confirm with Volume up at Warning screen
Press Start
Once done pull battery out and put it back, then press and keep pressed Volume up + power key (you'll see a blue text, "Recovery booting"). Once in recovery (navigate with Volume up/down & power key to confirm) choose "Wipe data/factory reset" and confirm with "Yes", then choose "Reboot system"
Now your WiFi should work

☆Why you want to downgrade your firmware? Nougat is on the way for S6edge plus..Without any proper reason kindly don't try to downgrade your firmware, it will might cause efs corruption for your device as lower modems failed to read newer efs partitions..Still you want to downgrade then follow guide on your own risk with backing up your current stock firmware.

Behold The Thread to solve your S7 Snapdragon Issue
- I have dealt with Odin errors for the last few days. Name as many as you can I've probably had it. The main issue is when people try to unroot by flashing stock ROM the phone will lock up (Soft Brick). This has happened to me many times in many different scenarios. Whether it presents itself with an eMMC error or any Fused Binary problems etc.
- Heres how to fix it.
- Unfortunately I am not allowed to post links yet but as soon as I can I will add them.
- Dowload your Stock firmware for your device.
- Download the S7 Snapdragon Root .tar for snapdragon
- Download the latest Odin Prince Comsy here
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.) Put your S7 into download mode by holding: Home + Power + Volume Down until you see a warning. Accept it.
2.) Go to the Modified Prince Cosmy Odin and open it up
3.) Grab the s7 Qualcomm .tar file from the root file you downloaded earlier and put it in the AP slot on Odin.
4.) Go to options on Odin and select: Nand Erase All, RE-Partition, Auto Reboot and F. reset time.
5.) Plug your S7 into your computer using a charging cord that is data transfer capable.
6.) After you see a blue or green box in Odin and see your device has been connected hit start
7.) After flashing the .tar root image. Put your phone back into download mode just like before and go back to Odin. (Make sure not to extract the zips inside the extracted USA ROOT zip.)
8.) Hit reset on Odin and go to options and select: Nand erase All, RE-Partition, Auto Reboot and F. reset time.
9.) Fill in BL, AP, CP, and CSC with your phones stock firmware and then select start. If all goes well it should restore your S7 to working condition.
- Make sure to extract all the downloads before you begin -
+ If you have an issue comment below and I or other helpful community members will help you!
+ If your device is not showing up make sure you have the latest Samsung phone drivers!
If your stuck in a boot-loop and you have a broken Home button or Volume buttons (Heck may be even both ), you can't enter to recovery and fix the soft-brick. I had the same problem and after hours of searching i found a way to boot into recovery using odin.
Steps:
1. Use MICRO USB JIG to enter download mode (Can buy on ebay and local phone spare part shops)
2. Set odin settings to Auto Reboot, F.Reset Time. (Reccomended cf auto root odin, It is preset for this type of flashes)
3. Load tar.md5 to AP and flash it
Voila, Now you are on twrp :highfive::good:
Flash twrp image from sd card and use reboot to recovery option or you can flash a rom directly from this
(If you are on a stock rom it may get overwritten, so use above step to flash recovery)
For other phone models: Use cache.img in chainfire autoroot and recovery.img(Don't use the one that comes with cf auto-root) of your phone model and search & follow instructions to build a odin tar.md5. Make sure to follow file order(of your device) in odin tar other wise your phone will brick.
This is not my sole work. I only followed the instruction and built the odin tar.md5 file

This is a guide to an untested yet possible method of rooting the Samsung J330L

The Korean variant of the J3 is relatively easy to install CWM.
You first must install, as with any Samsung device, Odin.
You should be able to download the latest Odin from there web page below
Secondly you need a 2017 firmware set for the j330L both to do the installation and to flash if anything goes wrong.
After installing Odin and extracting the .tar files you will need to put you phone in download mode by pressing and holding the home vol- and power keys
when you get a blue screen hit vol+. You should be in download mode.
Connect your phone to your computer and open Odin. You will need to install the BL AP CP and CSC files. (For the CSC file use the HOME file)
reboot and boot back into download mode
Flash the recovery.tar in the AP slot.
Reboot to recovery by holding down Home power and vol+
----Past this point i have had no success flashing magisk or super SU so I am currently working on flashing a ROM for root(causes boot loop)

CWM is dead.
Your device should be able to rooted using TWRP or use Magisk manager to root the boot image.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...overy-twrp-3-1-1-1-samsung-galaxy-j3-t3709056
True but at the time of posting TWRP causes boot loop. I haven't tried the TWRP version that you posted tho. I will give it a shot.
Ok After much testing i have successfully rooted the damn thing with the twrp installation above and the latest Super User but installing magisk or installing a custom rom now causes bootloop. This damned phone is irritating AF but root does work.... now i need to find out how remove my kernel so i can base a rom off it
