Hi everyone. I was using my phone with stock rom for a while ans I wanted to pass to Miui cuz I heard 4.4.2 will be released soon.
I downloaded TWRP and tried to flash as I did everytime before with Odin. I flashed it and it rebooted, odin showed Pass with no errors, but when I tried to launch the recovery, it is still stock. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I flashed it like this before and they always worked but this is not working. Is there another way to install this? I don't have root access but it wasn't an issue before. I have the usb drivers installed and debugging on. It was tricky to install drivers on Win 8.1 but it seems like installed correctly as it didn't showed an error.
Waiting for an answer please. I hate this exynos phone but my parents just not allowing me to sell this.

Nope. It still opens up the stock recovery. Anymore solutions?
You tried to install one in the stock recovery? A zip file of the Recovery?

I tried installing Miui in the stock rom but it didn't work. Perhaps the last updates did something? Cuz I was able to do this with ease. Maybe downgrading to the first stock 4.4.2 will work but it takes a lot of time and I'm sick of this. Thanks anyway, I'll boost your thanks meter by one more for trying to help

The rom you are currently on has nothing to do with your inability to flash the recovery. It's a completely different thing.
Uncheck auto-reboot before you flash the recovery. That should probably fix it.

Have you tried sammobile? If you want official firmware better check that site. Instructions are there too. Better find and match the proper Note 3 variant with what you have to what you are going to flash.

You're on 4.3 bootloader right, just so we clear. Try going to Android Dev thread and check Temasek CM11 build. His rom works on any bootloader, and since you're looking for an AOSP alternative.

(My phone is still running stock room, rooted, and with twrp)
So I was just about to flash a custom rom on my note since I learned that I can flash some t-mobile rom on my canadian (Bell) variant if I also flash a certain kernel(Only AEL and star[sumtin] I think) .
When I go to my recovery, I see on the bottom of the screen: dm-verity verificatoin failed.
I did a lot of research and didn't found anything, except some vague mention of that when bootloop are occuring.
So I don't know what I should do, if I can still flash anything without any worries, or should I unroot my note and flash the stock unrooted rom?
Can I still continue what I was doing and flash the custom rom and kernel I wanted to flash?
Another small question: I remember before rooting my note I had a software update available. I decided to root it first thinking I could do the update after (stupid I know), but I couldn't no more (I got a message about using a modified version or something like that). Is it important? Should I unroot my note, update the stock software, then root it again? And I guess if I flash another custom rom it's insignificant right?
thanks in advance! If I'm posting that because I really searched and found nothing satisfactory and clear, also bear with me I'm not perfectly bilingual.
It sounds like the custom rom you downloaded got corrupted, or just isn't compatible with your device. Try downloading again, and see if that works.
As for the update, now you are rooted you can no longer get any OTA updates. Most if not all custom roms will be using the latest builds. If you want to flash a completely stock (updated) rom, sammobile.com is where you need to be. But you will have to root the device afterwards.

Same problem for me. Was on completely stock rom until today but hated the lack of control so tried a custom rom. I've been a flashaholic for years so thought I'd have no problem but how wrong I was. First I tried TWRP recovery several times but kept getting stock recovery. I then tried Philz CWM but got even more problems including "dm-verity verification failed". I am fairly new to KitKat as I tried it on my note 1 but didn't like it. I am really angry that the stock rom prevents me installing bloatware and restricts access to my Sd card.
Have now managed to root and install clockwork mod and Echo rom and all seems to be working now

That´s what I finally did. Couldn´t resolve it in any other way.
After that I installed TWRP instead of CWM and also used another root-method as before. (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2oOvf5tOCY) Since then the problem is gone.
Do you think I can just run Odin and install twrp without refreshing to stock rom first?
I dint even know if it's possible to switch to twrp after installing cwm without A fresh start lol
Might give it a go when I have a few hours to re set up the phone haha
Thanks for your help though!

I don´t know whether you can flash twrp after installing cwm, but I doubt it would solve your problem anyway.
Well, you could try. In the worst case you can still go back to stock.

Another thing you could do is, ask Rkrishnamurthy from this thread, what he finally flashed on his 910G-model? http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=325832927
He might have flashed the N910F-recovery on his N910G.

I reflashed last night to stock. and then re-rooted, and installed CWM. But after i do all the SUPERSU updates and Xposed Framework, my DM Verity Fails again!!!
This really suck, because essentially i wont be able to backup, restore and flash my phone like i use to on the note 3......
I seriously hope 910F TWRP recovery is the answer.

So I decided to download the latest CF Auto root and I found that the TRLTEDT corresponds with the SM-N910G - http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/
TRLTEDT correspondents to the India TWRP recovery - http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/266
SM-N910G also corresponds to India, Singapore, Sri Lanka and obviously Australia (where i am based) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/general/galaxy-note-4-versions-cpu-t2883741
So in theory i should probably use that one.

Sorry for the bad link. I tried to find it again, but also couldn´t. If you wanted, you could still send him a private message.
When I had the DM-verity issue, I also reflashed to stock, installed CWM and rooted again, and got the same problem again. Just as you. Only when I used TWRP it worked for me and the DM-verity problem didn´t occur since then.
For backup you could at least make a Titanium-backup, which in the paid version even allows you to create a flashable .zip-file from all your backupped apps & settings. This is a very convenient way of re-installing everything, almost like a nandroid-backup.
Or if you are brave enough you could try flashing TWRP-recovery directly over your current CWM. I don´t know whether that works, but as long as you can get into download-mode, you will always find your way back to stock.

All this work and research just so I can flash my kernel with the N4 AEL Kernel haha
like you said though, as long as i can get into download mode, I should be all good.
I actually soft bricked my phone a couple days after i got it by accidentally converting certain system apps to user apps..... (idiot). Fixed the problem by flashing stock firmware and then re rooting. So i have some experience fixing this haha but hopefully i don't have to and report some good news.

So for anyone with DM-Verity Verification failed, simply install the appropriate TWRP recovery over it and it will fix your problem.
also SM-N910G is compatible with the TWRP Recovery for Inidia (even though it does not say it is)
So hap this fixed my problems and big thanks to Parinibbana for all the assistance.

Russian and kazakhstan lollipop have the same changelist 4928340 - how it can be better? I heared that all these versions periodically lose sim cards (need reboot).

You can install TWRP with ODIN and TWRP will ask you to install SuperSu
After reboot Supersu will update its binary. And you'll have root.

As you already said. Fist of all you need root permission on your device. But because you already installed 5.1.1 via OTA I'm afraid your device is "locked down". If KingRoot isn't able to root 5.1.1, then there is no easy way to get root on your device. In this case you have to downgrade first via Flashtool. Or you could unlock your bootloader and flash a custom kernel which has twrp integrated. But keep in mind that you will loose your drm keys this way.
BTW: I wouldn't use KingRoot even if it is able to root your device, because I don't trust this app....
Thnx mate for your reply
OK I will downgrade my tablet to 5.0.2
But I need you plz to point where I get my previous Android
And if I flashed it with flashtool all my data will be gone?!
Then I will root my tablet again then flashed this stock in this thread, am I right?!
And btw, why you didn't trust kingroot app, it's working with my tablet just fine! ?
I'm using Official Xposed for LP v.74 and it's working good on 5.1.1.

Try this FTF:
http://www.android-hilfe.de/thema/s...ny-xperia-tablet-z.457524/page-3#post-7918151
After that, use XZDR (TabZ-lockeddualrecovery2.8.21-RELEASE.installer.zip) from here:
http://nut.xperia-files.com/
Use Option 3 from Installer, which will use an root-exploit, that is still available in .230 Firmware.
In newer Firmwares this option isn't working anymore and you need to root by your own first.
And finally flash this PreRooted Image via TWRP or CWM

Depends on which Options you use to flash. If you exclude Data-Partition, then Data will be still there. But booting KitKat-Firmware with Lollipop-Data will not work or at least will screw up everything. So in the end you would need to wipe data anyway. (Be aware that flashing FTF including Data-Partition will also wipe internal storage / internal sdcard)

Well, there are mainly two things:
1. It needs a internet connection for rooting (who knows which data is send to them ...)
2. It isn't always providing a full working root, which is not very nice for devolpers and users, because their apps/packages maybe don't work properly...
Thank you Mcbane87
Well,I already downgraded my TabZ SGP321 and flashed kitkat 4.4.4 with build number 10.5.1.A.0.283 via flashtool like you said, even I got many failed steps at the beginning but I did it
Then I rooted my tablet using this thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-tablet-z/development/root-sp321-ftf-10-5-1-0-283-t2873377
So what to do next?! and I had another couple of questions please:
1- I am from Egypt so when looked into this firmware I didn't find Arabic language, is that Normal and how I get Arabic language
2- why I feel that kitkat is much better than lollipop and much easier and battery life is much better while I am playing my game with charger connected still battery going low slowly ?
Note: I am using root only to use Xmod for playing Clash Of Clans :laugh:!
I flashed it, seemed all ok, but:
no root, no recovery? no SuperSu in my Apps, I failed to enter recovery. What did I do wrong? what to do now?

you must reflash a rooted Firm(like 230) with flashtool.
Starting enable debuging and install nuts recovery 2.870 with option 1.
Then reboot and hold volume down when the green light on and you are only in TRWP mode.
Flash the 5.1 from sd1 and all was good.

It's faster to flash .230 .ftf stock unrooted, install recovery with option 3 and after that flash what you need from TWRP.
Well it's an easy, I flashed this stock via twrp and I used root checker to be sure that's my tab is rooted but I didn't find supersu!
Is this normal or i did something wrong?!!!

if SuperSu is incorporated into a ROM, it can sometimes be hidden in Developer Options. Failing that, just install it from the Play Store.
Yes i downloaded it form Google play and all set, thanks bro

In short xposed framework is just an addition to the in-built framework of your ROM. It helps you to customize your ROM for personalization and adding extra features to your device. Try googling xposed framework and keep working on it to get deeper knowledge about its modules and stuff.
But, make sure you know how to recover your device from bootloop and softbrick before installing the xposed framework. :good:

I wrote that already. Install XZDR then install this ROM.
But looks like you already managed it yourself

Could be possible, because this is ROM was created from Sony for Germany. Maybe they didn't integrated Arabic language and letters.

Didn't made that much comparison with TabZ, but on my Z1c I can confirm that some things are better with KitKat like bluetooth (only 5.02...didn't testet 5.1.1 till now) and other things like touchscreen response (phantom touching) is better in lollipop. Concerning batterylife I didn't saw any difference.
Well and the design / functions of lollipop are a question of personal liking. I personally hate the new LockScreen and its notification behaviour.
I would be happy finding a xposed module which would bring back old lockscreen on Lollipop, but I'm afraid this isn't that easy....
Well, I am big fan of Sony, I got Sony Xperia Z and I love lollipop in it and btw I have installed stock firmware prerooted as well
But frankly I am preferring kitkat in my tablet it's looks much better and easier
Anyway thank you for your helping bro

Did you try Gravity Box LP and Serajr Xperia™ Xposed (LP)? They will definitely help to change the look of Sony LP. Work good on 5.0.2 and 5.1.1
