The n910p is the Sprint model. You can update your firmware with Odin, just use the the sprint tar files.
If your not gonna use Sprint service, your first gonna want to make sure the sim is unlocked. Either with a paid service or some other way. There are threads at the Sprint forum for this! Search and read through them. Like GT tools. I am not very knowledgeable in this matter so ask I one of them threads.
Once you make sure your unlocked, if your using gsm service, you can pretty much flash any snapdragon Rom! All you need is to flash a Sprint kernel and correct data fix with the Rom you want.
Also Before you do anything, make a complete backup with twrp! Also make another one once you get unlocked.
The Rom you decide to install will determine which firmware you need before hand.
Once or if your already sim unlocked, and you pick a Rom out that you'd like to install, I can help.
Are you unlocked? Do you know how to use Odin? How to flash and use twrp?
What firmware are you currently on?

This thread has most of the sprint note 4 stock firmware files and Odin: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/general/stock-tar-odin-flashable-t3250864
Here are official USB drivers: http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.c...G_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.45.00.exe
Here is official Twrp 3.02: https://dl.twrp.me/trltespr/twrp-3.0.2-0-trltespr.img.tar.html This is installed from Odin!
Uninstall any Samsung software you have on pc for best results.
Download and install USB drivers to pc.
Download and unzip Odin to pc.
Download twrp.
1st thing I recommend is making a full backup.
So let's install twrp!
1. So put phone in download mode. (Turn off then hold power+vol dwn+home) then it'll prompt you to push vol up.
2. Open odin as admin.
3. Plug phone in pc USB. Odin should recognize phone.
4. In Odin. Click options, unclick auto reboot. Only 'F Reset time's should be checked. Now go back to log tab.
5. Click the AP button. And load the twrp file.
6. Click start. Do not touch pc or phone. Let it be. When the log states all threads completed. Wait 1 minute just to be safe. Unplug phone. Pull out battery. Put back in.
7. Boot into recovery. Press and hold (pwr+vol up+home)
You should now have twrp.
Goto backup and backup all partitions. If your not worried about your installed stuff, you don't need to backup 'data'.
Main thing is (boot,system,efs,modem)
Save this backup somewhere safe.

Part 2. Info!
If your just looking to install stock Rom. All you need is Odin and the stock tar file. But you select auto reboot in Odin.
You only deselect auto reboot when flashing twrp, because it won't stick.
Also once you upgrade to ok1 there is no downgrading.
If your looking to instal custom roms, you should read what firmware they recommend to have before hand. But most of them should work on most current firmware. It just depends.
In general this is what you'll do.
1. Odin the stock firmware you want. Let it boot.
2. Odin twrp.
3. Once you have twrp, flash any Rom you want for your phone.
4. Use a Sprint kernel (Ram) and data fix for international roms.
Edit. Once you upgrade your firmware, it's a good idea to make another backup of it. Especially the EFS.

Did you check the MD5 before flashing? Are you absolutely sure the ROM your flashing is compatible with your device? Were you on the latest MF3 firmware before you started flashing?

it appears you have flashed an ATT rom for the i337 and not a Rom for the i337m -- you now have several options to restore your phone
1. flash the Loki'd fix to allow the kernel and rom you flashed to boot your phone or
2. flash a cutom kernel that does work with your phone such a Ktoonz kernel (read the install instructions, for your i337m you need the TMO version of his kernel) or
3 download the stock firmware package for your phone, I'd recommend MG1 either from a link on xda or from samMobile or Samsung updates and install using Odin -- this will completely reset you phone and then you can worry about root and custom recovery after
If you do decide to install fresh factory stock MG1 I can recommend using CF-root to root the i337m and then installing Philz Recovery rather than regular CWM as it installs more easily and plays nicer on the i337m in my experience.
Remember each phone is different but do not attempt to install ATT designed roms on your i337m unless you have the loki patch also on your SD card ready to flash also.
There are many great roms available that do fir the i337m and are specifically set up for our phone.
But first, let's get you out of the download loop. EIther of the 3 options above will do. Personally, I would recommend the Odin install of the stock MG1 firmware and start over with a factory reset and a clean phone.

okay got it back to stock, now quick question for the philz do i flash the .tar with odin? or do something else with the .zip?
Its not the ROM that's incomparable its the kernal your using. Find one for a i337m then flash it immediately after you flash your ROM and see if it works.

so just to go over the steps to make sure i dont mess this up,
so i flashed to the origonal versoin with odin
that worked
then i rooted it using CF root
now i got 2 files from philz and i'm not 100% sure what to do with them, i got a .tar what i assume i flash with odin and a .zip i'm not to sure what i do with they are both named philz_touch_5.15.0-jfltecan.tar.md5 and philz_touch_5.15.0-jfltecri.zip
then once i get into recovery i know how to flash roms, its just this whole kernal thing thats got me confused.

READ THIS FIRST:
MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT HAVE THE MF3 FIRMWARE ON YOUR S4. THAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO DO RIGHT NOW. IF YOU DO, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL A CUSTOM RECOVERY.
You don't have a custom recovery already that's why. Did casual not install TWRP for you? If not try installing Goo Manager from the app market and try installing TWRP that way. MAKE SURE THAT WHEN YOU INSTALL IT, IT SAYS YOUR MODEL NUMBER EXACTLY! I CAN NOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH! When you have TWRP installed, then flash philz with TWRP and you'll have that custom recovery instead.

do not use the zip you quoted it is not for your phone
use odin flash the tar philz_touch_5.15.0-jfltecan.tar.md5
now you have stock updated MG1 firmware with the latest baseband
root by CF root
Philz Recovery
Now follow the next steps:
1. set up your google account play store etc.
2.next, go into the recovery and do a full nandroid backup -- this gives you a stable base you can restore when needed
3. go flash a custom rom, I highly recommend the latest version of Goldeneye -- updated, well maintained, great developer, clear install instructions
4. try itt then again, use recovery to make a 2nd nandroid, this one of your custom rom install -- try different kernels, every phone is different and someone's favorite kernel just may not like your phone -- doesn't make it a bad kernel just makes it the wrong one for your phone, flash a different one
5. theme if you want -- this is where your recoveries become important as themes are notorious for not always sitting well and all is ok if you have a backup you can return to
6. NEVER flash a baseband from another variant -- stick with your MG1 from your carrier until your carrier updates stock firmware

NE 9 modem on Developer

Quick question - - can I just flash the NE9 modem in TWRP just after flashing extreme syndicate room and before reboot? Or do I have to use ODIN?
If I have to use ODIN what are the steps?
Thanks.
{I voiced my opinion with my wallet and bought a developer phone, come on AOSP love.... Soon i hope}

The NE9 modem files that I have seen (present and past modem files) cannot be flashed via a custom recovery, they must be installed using ODIN.
Put you phone in download mode (volume down + power)(make sure you have Samsung drivers installed on PC), start ODIN on PC, connect phone to PC, wait for ODIN to recognize phone, select the modem tar file that is located on your PC, use PDA and press start. Wait until you get a GREEN PASS before disconnecting your phone. Reboot.
Thanks for the reply.... But, do I flash the rom first and reboot, then reboot into download mode and go into ODIN and flash NE9 modem? The rom 'extreme syndicate' is NE9.

No problem. If you're looking for a lean, fast, smooth ROM then you'll love that ROM. I've been running it since it was first release (under a different name) and haven't found a good reason to run anything else.
Yeah the rom is terrific. I was running the earlier version also. BTW do u know what KLTE is? I was looking at the unified s5 section and the AOSP roms and wondering if the VZ Developer version is KLTE? Thanks again

I'm not positive what KLTE means in terms of our Dev S5s. I see the term used a lot in threads talking about unified ROMs, but I don't know exactly what phones it applies to.

SAMSUNG SM-g900f (INTERNATIONAL)

Well I finally made the switch from Apple to android. I could no longer take the incompatibility with different toys at home. I used to work at RadioShack and I have rooted quite a few phones. I recently purchased a s5 international version, I need to root the phone for mirror play with my appradio. I have spent a few hours reading and trying, I took it to a droid friend of mine and he attempted with no joy. What info do you guys need from me to make thei happen. It says 5.0 (guessing lollipop)....... I tried rooting with Odin.
Thanks for any help guys
Flash TWRP then try flashing SuperSU.zip

Agree with previous poster, but you need to flash *specifically* twrp 2.8.7.0 klte......
For some reason, this version is the only one that works with some LP firmwares....
And make sure 'Reactivation Lock' is switched off before you start.
http://i.imgur.com/rVnFwJM.jpg
Thanks I'll try that version. I kno I've tried flashing twrp 10x. When I try to enter twrp mode it never works. It goes to the normal page. I'll do it again tonight when I get home so I can give very clear data regarding what I'm running into.
I have followed the instructions posted by others step by step and it either boots into recover mode as if twrp was never installed or freezes and goes into a boot mode flux. Wish I could just pay someone to root this phone..... I am beginning to think it can not be rooted..... Does anyone have a link for updated instructions bc the ones I'm using are from March 2015...... I am using Odin 3.09.
Did you try CF Auto Root first?
I don't see it mentioned
And try ODIN 3.10.7
He mentioned trying to root using Odin, I guess he tried CF method using the tar file.

Flashing TWRP from ODIN then SuperSU from TWRP is another way to root using ODIN
But also, some people have no clue what they are doing, and try flashing all sorts from ODIN - without CF actually mentioned, we are guessing
Even with Lollipop, you can still root your Galaxy S5 using CF Auto Root. It is flashable via Odin.
When you install custom ROMs or recovery like TWRP, make sure Reactivation Lock is disabled or else it will block any custom binary it would detect.

Download a stock firmware from sammobile.com, preferrably ANE2 KitKat build. Flash it via Odin then once the firmware works, go to Security settings then disable Reactivation Lock. You should be able to flash a custom recovery and boot to it then.

-help- SM-N910f with SM-N910p bootloader

Hello every one
I have bought a Note 4 " SM-N910f " from ebay and when I tried to root it ,I have found that the version of the bootloader belong to another Note 4 (910p).
about device
Model Num: SM-N910F
Android Ver: 5.1.1
Baseband V: N910FXXU1COH4
Build Num: DONGCHAO.A929
CpuZ
model : Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910F)
Bootloader :N910PVPU4COG5
Kernel Ver: 3.10.40-5303209(N910PVPU4COG5)
Build Num: DONGCHAO.A929
Odin mode
product name : SM-N910P
current binary: samsung officiel
system status : officiel
reactivation lock off
Knox warranty void : 0x0
the ticket on the back also show the same thing as ''About device''
but when I cheket my IMEI in ""imei.info"" it tell me that my phone is a galaxy s6 edge !!!!
the same IMEI in both (back ticket & software (#*06#))
so what should I do?
because I can't root neither flash a new firmware
Can I relace the bootloader by the one of N910f ?
(I have only try to flash the firmware of N910f ,I did not try n910p firmware's because I am afraid if I succeed I'll finish with locked network phone)
thanks a lot
have same problem. did you succeed to resolve the issue?
I realised that someone has been changing "Sprint Note 4" to look like the international version.
so I decide to install the latest stock rom ( downloaded from sammobile)
Now I am so glad because I didn't get any problem.
I don't Know how but a Note 4(n910c) IMEI was restored not an IMEI of n910p according to "Imei.info"
Hotspot and Network unlocked including LTE
Hi, I am having the same problem as you.
Can you please give me the rom that you used? And which odin version did you use?
thanks.
what version is the modem? when the moden is from n910p too then its a n910p spoofed as n910f. that can be done by changing backcover and mount a sim reader and it works like n910f. so you have a n910p mainboard in it with changed imei with jtag box

Do this only if your bootloader is a N910P**** (Use CPU-Z to check it, you can download it from the market)
You must have a least 60%
You should remove your SIM card
I've used the latest rom from this link.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/60440/N910PVPU4COJ6_N910PSPT4COJ6_SPR/
I assume that you've already installed Samsung driver
and that you have the latest version of odin v3.10.7 and that you're familiar on how to use it
but before you proceed you have to :
1- Instal a custom recovery (Twrp)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...nt/tool-utility-twrp-2-8-1-0-teamwin-t2915591
2- boot into TWRP
3-in advanced wipe dalvik cache
4-wipe data/factory reset
5-Format /cache
6-Format /system
7-Format /Data
8-go to advanced and reboot to download mode
9-flash the downloaded rom
wait (10-15min) until your device come to world
Now you have a fresh and clean note 4
10-check your IMEI (*#06#) in http://www.imei.info/
11-restrict data and wifi usage for the following app
Sprint ID
Mobile Installer
Sprint Zone
MyScript Resource Manager
12-Update Your System (settings > System Update > Update Now)
Because this is not the latest build You should upgrade to N910PVPS4COK1 (150mo)
to correct some issue with Google Play Store and other things
13- Update you Play Store and Google Services thru the Store
14- shutdown your device when finished
15-insert your SIM and wake up your Note 4
16-you should root it to profit
(remove unwanted sprint apps it's recommended check the forum to find them out -Use Titanium Backup pro #1 )
enjoy and wait for the Marshmallow =)

what version is the modem? when the moden is from n910p too then its a n910p spoofed as n910f. that can be done by changing backcover and mount a sim reader and it works like n910f. so you have a n910p mainboard in it with changed imei with jtag box

Hi.
So how to I get the phone to work? It is in a bootloop when switched on and I cannot go into recovery mode since the phone restarts itself when I try to do so. However I have access to download mode.
Also how do I check the version of the modem?

hello, how do I make sure if my bootloader is a N910P? I cannot download CPU-Z on the phone since the phone is in a bootloop and not switching on.
Before I had the problem, it was written SM-N910F in the about device of the phone. In download mode, it is written N910p and at the back of the phone it is written Sm-N915F.
If you can access the download mode, you simply flash the custom recovery and follow the instructions
you can get it working by flashing n910p rom with odin (download it from sammobile) after that i can say you how to get it again full working with a n910f rom so that you dont have anymore any sprint apps on it

Hi there, I have same issue, have s7 edge sm-G935F stuck at logo. I downloaded 2 different firmware from z3x box(shell) and if keep failing when using odin (latest) and also getting error when using Samsung tool.Also I can't get in the phone menu to check the baseband..can only get model from download model.any advice to this?
Same issue as well on my sm-g985v Verizon variant
Flashed an update to work out minor lagging bugs and soft bricked my S7. Can access bootloader and recovery. Beyond that, the phone gets there but with black screen and it is sputtering off and on. Tried reflashing stock firmware with odin, and its not taking. Running into a permission error while trying to write the image. Anyone here have any ideas?

Is this a 935F? Where did you download the orginal firmware from and what version of Odin u use?
When I root my phone I always use the steps from this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-e...0-0-0-t3334084
Have never run into issues.
Flash twrp trough Odin first, let the phone start
Boot into TWRP, format phone with the options you have to type YES, then install dm-verity force encryption disabler
Now restart TWRP
Then flash the Supersu file from the thread.
Now restart phone

Download orginal firmware fro sammobile, unpack and flash with Odin 3.12.3.
Download the firmware from your area, the one that comes with your phone.
Use the right regional code and everything when you download firmware.
Also, have you guys flashed the right bootloader and modem beforehand?

So you flashed a beta firmware, the name of which you don't feel is necessary information.
OK. Shame I hate popcorn. How about INFORMATION instead?!

It was my understanding it was already in the package. Questioning that one now. Where do i look for that? And thank you for responding back. Downloading your first suggestions as i type this...
I have downloaded two non branded firmware for the Netherlands from samdroid. I had unpacked the zip and flashed the files. For the csc selection I put the one named home csc

When downloading original firmware there should be 4 files when unzip.
1 for each of the options in Odin, without the last one named home.
Some of the custom roms comes with bootloader and modem, but NOT ALL.
Most times you have to flash the right bootloader and modem in Odin beforehand to get the phone to boot.
Im unsure of what has happened because I have never run into issues myself.
If you can not get the phone to boot with firmware from Sammobile and Odin flash I am out of options.
If I do experience a problem like this I would:
-install bootloader and modem according to the custom rom used. Try and flash these with odin more than ones, if not working.
-if no recovery, try flash recovery again
-try flash another custom rom then another custom rom
-return to stock firmware downloaded trough Sammobile
If none of these options work im out of things to do, sorry
The times I have experienced phone stuck on Samsung logo, it has been because of bootloader and/or modem.
Flashing the right ones have always fixed the problem.
That said, I have never experienced problems with returning to stock firmware trough Odin, maybe one time.
And this time my firmware download was corrupted.

This is wrong, you should use the file named only CSC.
Home_CSC, is to keep your setup on phone as is.
I also remember that you have to remove the meta data directory, and then repack firmware or the install will stop.
And this is also NOT a good option if you use another firmware than the original on phone.
Installing firmware with Odin, always use BL, AP, CP and CSC.
Try this and forget about the Home_CSC.
I don't have anymore info, sorry
Thank you very much. I will try it. I will let you know.
Gentlemen, my appreciations and thanks. Was able to finally get the stock firmware to grab. After more time disecting the problem i learned about and was able to uncover the maintenance boot screen. There it had the option to do usb debug . Once i hit that, next flash finished fully. It must of reser in the dev options after the initial root. Damn, i was sweating balls for a bit thinking i must of hard bricked it somehow. I will take it throufh the toot process later today glitch free i imagine. Thanks again for assisting,

Buy pressing and holding power and volume down key, until you get to the screen.
Same procedure as download mode, but without the big button

Even this thread is old:
Thank you so much, bricked my phone unknowingly flashing custom recovery using a defektive usb port struggling to get it working again. This worked like a charm.
DonĀ“t understand why the orthers did struggle with that method.
