[Q] SM N 9005 Will not connect to Odin.

Hello everyone.
Just received my Note 3 out of box and getting ready to root and try some of the great work available in this section of the forum.
However the fun already stop before it began.
The phone will not connect to Odin.
It connects to the computer/kies just fine.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I have :
Different comp/usb ports
Updated motherboard usb firmware/drivers
Different cables.
Different downloads for 4,3 and 4,4:
SM-N9005 (International Qualcomm): CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.zip
(only works on 4.4 bootloaders, if you're still on 4.3 use the old version which you can find here: http://d-h.st/J32)
Turned on usb debugging.
Run as Admin ^^
Anyone else encountered these complications?
I would very much like a solution or suggestions to what I can try, even if you did not test it yourselves.
Thanks ! <3

Have you uninstall kies and install samsung usb driver?

Maybe a dumb question, but did you put the phone in downloadmode before connecting to your pc?
Edit: make sure Kies is not running. Disable it also in the system tray on your pc.
And if that doesn't help, you can try another version of Odin, like Odin 3 v1.85 (?)

Connect phone in download mode to USB before running Odin.

Uninstalled kies
Installed standalone drivers.
So simple..
Cant always think of everything.
Thank you bro!

[Q] Root with broken charger (USB-port)

Hi guys!
I have a problem with my Samsung Galaxy s4 GT-I9505. I want to root it but my charger port is broken, i've also tried with towelroot but found out that kernel version is too new. IS their any way to root via sd-card ? Or any way to root at all... Will I be able to install different os's without the usb port?
Im on 4.4.2 KitKat.

No not possible at this moment.

Root Samsung S5 SM-G900F International without PC?

Hi,
I have been a big fan of this forum for years and it helped me solve many problems in the past - thank you all for the work you are doing here!
Unfortunately, I now ran into a problem which I cannot seem to solve myself.
I acquired a second-hand Samsung S5 SM-G900F International Version running Marshmallow which cannot be connected to my PC as the USB hub is broken (I didn't know that before and now I have it and have to work with it because I cannot just get another phone).
So, I tried to root it without a PC, which according to several sources I found online should not be a problem.
So far I have tried these rooting apps and none of them worked:
- Root Master
- Baidu
- Easy Rooting Toolkit
- Z 4 (which didn't even run but closed itself each time after 2 seconds)
- Kingo Root
- King Root
- Towelroot
- iroot
- Universal Androot
- Frama Root
- and I tried to use CF auto root, but there I couldn't even find a running apk
So, as it seems to me, none of these apps support the international version of the S5. And as I am not too eager to strip this phone to the bones and repair the USB hub myself: Do you have other ideas what I could do? I really just want to install LineageOS and get rid of Google
Thank you!

I really have no idea. If those methods, especially King(o)Root, did not work... clueless.
But in any case you could deactivate the OTA update feature of the stock rom, so you will not receive updates. That way you might have a chance that some root app implements an exploit that works in the future as bugs are found.
I just want point out for future reference that CFautoroot by chainfire (https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/) is not an apk but an ODIN flashable package. So still needs a USB connection.
Good Luck!

Hey,
thanks anyways!
I will let that post stand here in case someone in the future runs into the same problem or someone else has the magic solution.
I now decided to just get the USB hub repaired but of course, as it has to be, the display broke and needed repairing too - financially this whole project was not worth it. But I saved a phone

Convert n900v to n9005 ( international Version)

Hi - I've been lurking on XDA for quite awhile and finally took the time to create an account.
Here is my issue/need -
I have a Note 3 that I want to use in another country. I have used it as a 900v but there are a few issues, so I am wondering, If I root,etc. and load all the 9005 firmware will it then be a fully functional 9005 ??

WOW.....

Hi! anyone can post solution to convert N900V to N9005 please?
thank you!

Hi, I don't know if this has any relation to my problem but this is what has happened :
I wanted to add a custom rom to my SM-N900V so I upgraded it to Android 5.0 but I upgraded it to pl1 so I downgraded it to of1 and rooted using Arabic tool app. I flashed twrp through Odin and flashed hyper drive custom rom but that rom was rubbish. So I decided to switch to Aryamod rom and flashed it through twrp but after rebooting got stuck on Note 3 logo on searching I found out that the stock kernel has to be replaced with darklord kernel so I used Odin to flash it and on rebooting I got past the note 3 logo but got stuck on Samsung logo (it was blinking) after waiting for 20 min I again started searching on xda, I found out that before flashing Aryamod you have to be on stock 5.0 firmware. So I again used Odin to flash 5.0 but it failed so I tried again and this time it worked ,then I again rooted using Arabic tool and after successful rooting when I plug in my phone to my PC to unlock it's boot loader the phone only charges and I don't get and USB options on my phone, Odin does not detect any device neither does the Arabic tool and when I see the list of and devices there is none. I reinstalled the drivers of my phone tried many cables and different ports disabled and enabled USB debugging 100 times and even dialed ##366633# and disabled and enable dm mode from there also but all without any luck. I really want to connect it to my PC to flash stock firmware again. Pls help me.

N910F datafix issue

Hello everyone - does anyone else know a workaround for DATA/LTE not working when I flash a custom rom? I have a Samsung N910F Note 4 on a T-Mobile network (Poland) and stock or rooted it works fine, but when I flash anything, and ive tried a lot, any kind of port - the data always has an issue. either not workign at all, very very very very slow, or works for 5 minutes then cuts out and I need to reboot.
Ive tried the aurora datafix: aurora_N7_datafix_N910F_alpha5
the only option I have to try still is flashing Racerom with BL and CP - but I have serioius doubts as ive tried every other port out there, new and old.
any help would be much appreciated, and thanks for reading.
