I had to use odin v.3.04.
The v.3.07 I used for all my Chainfire and team win fun didn't let me.

Someone got bored xD

My guess is that you can leave auto reboot checked and skip the battery pull.

Any improvements in this one? Is it worth flashing?

wait i'm confuse between this ,kies method, 138 MB tmobile OTA (i'm rooted so no go ) update and the 1.6GB firmware on sammobile . I'm running rooted ANJ7 baseband version so which path should i take to upgrade ? which of these do i get to keep my data and phone setting ?

If you flash the smaller file OP posted you will not lose your files. If you flash the full 1.6 GB version, it will essentially put your phone back to stock, wiping all your data in the process. Which is good if you want a clean start, but not so much if you only want to update your baseband and modem (and firmware). Personally, I flash the full 1.6 version for a clean start when an update is released, then restore my apps with Titanium backup. But it's up to you, honestly.

Flashed using Mobile Odin.

I was able to flash my baseband/modem from my extracted firmware, modem.bin using Odin v3.09,
and
ur bootloader also using Odin v3.09,
just wanted to let u know it worked just fine,
thanks for the bootloader file... saved me some time instead of doing the firmware... :good:

Very cool.
I may go ahead and flash the bootloader.
Hadn't yet cause on the tmobile s4 it was important to never update the bootloader.
Mine still doesn't have knox.
Running latest cm nightlies.
And using the nh7 modem.

And the op's trick is how you get the latest modem/baseband without letting them do things to your bootloader.

I always update my modem/baseband.
Samsung/tmobile are trying to make reception better with each release, and all.
I've also heard people say if it ain't broke don't fix it.
Knowing how to update your modem/baseband without updating your bootloader is a good skill either way.

hm i wonder if this is a display bug ?

Crash At startup

I have a weird problem with my S5 900f running Lollipop BTU. Rooted with chainfire. Issue is that after rooting when i restart my phone it sometimes says "android is updating and then everythig starts crashing....system is not responding etc etc" i have disabled sytem updates aswell . First i thought it was cuz of Twrp and i flashed stock recovery with flashify but still happened today.........it happens randomly while restarting my phone and then if it gets stuck i have to go to recovery and hit "clear cache and clear update from cache" to be able to boot.....i have also tried different firmwares any clue why this might be happening?

You have to flash stock firmware with odin but first you have to full wipe with twrp recovery end after flash firmware because your root is filed end after you may try to root again

SAMSUNG GALAXY J3 SM-J320FN. How to root this device?

Hi!
I have got Samsung Galaxy J3 SM-J320FN and i want to root this device. Kingoroot,Towelroot didn't work. Can you help me? Pls

Anyone have any info for this, I too am looking to root this device and can't find anything.

Hello!
I have a solution. Try it: http://www.needrom.com/download/root-for-galax-j36-sm-j320fn/

confused by your post
hi,
how does one add to the root file the img file? every time i have tried is says i need to be rooted… which i am not? can you advise the step by step to add the img file without root access to the root folder? maybe the file manager apk you used that we can also download and install and use?

The root folder just means the first part of your storage. I.e not in any folder.

Was this on the latest version of the firmware, and if so then please let me know how!
Thanks!

I'll put up a link for the files needed . Recovery is for the j320f but it's working on mine no problem and I'm on j320fn. You have to flash recovery via odin and change language when you load it up because I think it's in Russian but not sure . I found all this on a website but can't remember where to now but anyway here you go for TWRP http://mega.nz/#!tBORFSBI
and for flash able root in recovery http://mega.nz/#!1ZFAWZDI
use Firefox to download from mega ok and if you have any trouble flash stock through odin, website for stock rom is sammobile

All looking good so far. The TWRP flashed OK, and so did the Nandroid back up, so I am just trying the SuperSU install and the phone has rebooted about 6 times so far since the install, so I will keep it going a little longer and see what happens

I ended up re-flashing SuperSU a second time, as it was bootlooping for about 25 minutes and it went straight through this time after 1 reboot.

All good - The phone is now rooted and SuperSU installed (I haven't tried the Xposed installer yet, but will do tomorrow as off to bed now.
Many thanks for the advise & links... I'm sure there's a lot of people that it will help!
For anyone else wanting to try this, the basic info is broken down below:
Basically, download TWRP & SuperSU from these links & flash using Odin:
TWRP*http://www.mediafire.com/download/bl...-J320F.tar.tar
root file*http://www.mediafire.com/download/cp...0630161323.zip
The TWRP will be in Russian, but if you click on the right-hand side grey box then you can change to English.
First thing to do is run a Nandroid back-up and once completed copy the SuperSU file to the phone/Ext SD card and flash this (I flashed it twice, as the first attempt just made the phone constantty reboot after the logo.
Next you can flash thexPosed Lollipop 5.11 from here :* the framework for xposed lollipop 5.1.1*http://www.mediafire.com/download/hx...m-20151217.zip

G900F Root Problem

Hello guys! I've followed the simple root tutorial found on XDA and i've managed to root my S5 with no problem (i don't have any knowledge about this stuff cause i am a newbie,sorry...). After that ,i've successfully flashed TWRP Recovery and tried several ROM's but every one of them failed (bootloop on RR, corrupted zip on Note 7 ROM etc),anyway,it was late and the next day i needed my phone so i installed the Official Stock S5 ROM (6.0.1) found on XDA also (flashed with Odin). The problem is, i can't root it anymore. When i try to do the exact same thing i did with auto-root and Odin everything works except SuperSU ("There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it"). I've tried everything! And when i say everything , i mean it. Even KingRoot, wipping everything, trying to root again, the advices found on this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/su-binary-installed-supersu-install-t1928764 and nothing works..if anyone can point me some directions , give some advices, i would be very happy! Thank you guys! I'm willing to try anything.

Custom Kernel = No WLAN

I have rooted the S8. If I flash a custom kernel now, no matter which one (TGP, NX, NOTORIOUS) I can not turn on the WLAN afterwards, - the slider always jumps out. With and without Wipe, - does not work.

Flash original firmware from sammobile then test it.

Sir flash latest firmware then root it only by twrp and when you flash twrp you have to wipe data typing yes for complete functionality and them root it by magisk. I hope you wont get any issues. Seriosuly did to my s8 same many times didnt face the issue once.

I flashed TWRP with Odin.
Then in the TWRP SuperSU flashed, nothing else.

Maybe maybe sir its because if supersu maybe, with all due respect repeat process and this time root using Magisk i use it and installed NX kernel worked fine i know kernel provide features but if it doesnt help make compromise with stock kernel and keep using it.

And sir dont rush into aything whenever you install twrp after flashing origi al firmware, when twrp boots for the first time you have to keep it read only dont allow modifications then go to wipe and wipe data type yes then reboot your phone compkete setup then install magisk then reboot and again boot into twrp now flash custom kernel. I explained everything what i do and i am fine everythings fine running custom kernel without issue.
