Roms Not Working! - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to flash roms on my N9005 but I'm not able to succeed.
I tried first flashing the Fougat rom, I got stuck at Galaxy note 3 bootloop
I tried the Lineage 15 rom. It required TWRP v3.2.1, tried flashing it, but it didn't load
Tried flashing MagMa NXTeam's rom, same with fougat.
Im sure %100 I followed devs steps to flash but nothing is working for me!
Help devs, please!!

Did you confirm the model # in download mode?
Did you try flashing other ROMs that work with an older version of TWRP?
The phone is running the latest bootloader and modem?

1 Its not a N9005 or a fake .
2 User flashing stuff not for a N9005 .
3 Possible damage to a partition .
Judged by previous multiple users posts its likely partition damage .

same for me since i change complete screen LCD+tactil.
Original rom work great but no custom rom. I bought complete screen on china ebay store.
Is screen version is really same that mine ? how to verify ?

I've read through a couple of your posts you've made on several ROMs and even TWRP, it sounds like you are flashing the wrong version for your phone. In several instances you've asked whether to install hlte, in the TWRP thread it seems like you're just letting the phone reboot (which re-installs stock recovery). You might either want to research more into what you are doing before you brick/damage your phone or leave your phone on stock.

[Q] Help - stuck

I was getting bored with my standard s4 rom, so in my rush to move forward I flashed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544474 (►►[AOSP] Official 4.4.2 - S4 Google Edition - v10 - Feel the Experience of Nexus◄◄) thinking I was on a i9505 and not bothering to check and also not bothering to make a backup.
anyway it works but I was getting random reboots (known on this rom) and mad battery drain (what previously was 50% at the end of the day now is flat).
So i decided to go back to stock. It was then that I realised that when I do a system check, my phone actually is a i9505g.
I downloaded a couple of i9505g images from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2569510 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544056 however when I try and flash, ODIN come up with a fail. I have tried changing to stock recovery from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2442882 but still no luck.
Interestingly when I try flashing the modems from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2452034 these won't flash either.
I'm a bit flummoxed as I can flash other modems to it via odin.
I haven't uninstalled drivers and odin or tried other ports as when i flash modems they do work (they don't all actually work but i can change them) and i can change custom recovery too.
Any suggestions???

I'm going to start by saying you're damn lucky you haven't totally bricked your phone.
You really need to slow down and understand what you're doing.
It sounds like you do have an i9505, otherwise the GE ROM you flashed would of giving you an error 7.
Anyway because you have flashed a Google Edition ROM onto your i9505 it has changed the build prop so now your device says it's an i9505G.
You should be fine to flash any stock firmware for an i9505 to restore your phone.
In future read instructions very carefully and make sure you actually know what you're doing before attempting to flash your phone.
Hope you can get it back up and running as an i9505

I thought I did, I've been flashing phones, for years now, to a lesser degree, and though I've got in deep water, I 've never drowned.
I presumed that regardless of what you flashed onto the phone, system info it would report back what it actually was - so when I checked and saw that it was listed a i9505g I didn't know you could change what it was reported back. Live and learn.
I will have a go with a i9505 ROM and see what happens...

[Q] hard bricked SM N-9005. How can I fix it??

Hi to everyone:
I've flashed bobcat custom rom for my rooted phone but then returned to firmware for a problem.
In the proccess (now with firmware N9005XXUGNG1) i've hard bricked my phone and now have null imei and doesn´t start normally, the phone is rebooting constantly.
I've read that by installing a custom ROM I can repair the EPS because I dont have a copy of it.
If finally its hard bricked how can I fix it???
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck
Easy
In he mean time download your particular rom from sammobile.com/firmwares/ and flash full rom with odin (before start just in case remove battery for about 10 secs and enter straight to download mode just before flashing and it will be fine..
I personaly had same isue long ago and fixed it that way.
P.S. Keep in mind that you must flash rom with the same bootloader or later version, because you cant downgrade to older one.
Cheers!

Problem with Note 4 SM N910L - cant flash ROMS

Hi, Im having a problem with my Korean SM N910L. I cant get it to connect to a network. Someone suggested I flash a custom Rom (weve tried everything else). I installed TWRP and have downloaded 3 ROMs (Sphinx, Glamour, CM 12) which are supposed to work with the 910L but TWRP is unable to flash them. I can backup with TWRP and restore with TWRP but it wont flash any custom ROMs. I have downloaded the ROMS many times and checked that they unzip OK. Nothing seems to work. Any ideas?
Im pinning my hopes on this sorting my signal problem.
(see the "Im going bonkers......" thread if you want more details on what Ive tried already.)
Really hope someone can help, Im kind of losing heart after 3 weeks of faffing about.

No Sound | LineageOS | SG Note 3 (SM N900W8)

Hi...
So as of last night my phone doesn't have sound. I've been flashing roms/gapps all day yesterday and today I figured I'd settle on a rom for now given that my model is sparse for roms that actually work.
Having no sound started with putting LineageOS 15.1 on my phone (Oreo) which was working previously so I don't know what happened, so I tried to flash LineageOS 14 / CM 14 (individually) on my phone and LineageOS worked but without audio and I believe CM 14 either kept crashing and/or also had no audio. I then flashed Resurrection Remix Oreo for my phone as I remember in the past the audio worked fine, again it doesn't.
Before the events above, like I said, I had been flashing numerous roms on my phone, lots of the roms either worked for a few minutes and while updating Google Play they would crash or the rom would be stuck at its boot screen.
I've also been flashing a modem on my phone, through Odin, because some Kitkat and Lollipop roms I got didn't have working WIFI. I noticed with that, that the roms would work for a few minutes then crash (maybe because I was trying to use a 5Ghz network?)
I was also trying to flash custom kernels and even though they would say they flashed successfully I'd be stuck at the boot screen that said "Samsung Galaxy Note 3" with it also saying the Kernel or Recovery isn't SEandroid Enforcing.
(I've also been switching between TWRP 3.2.1.1 and 2.8.7.0 because roms with "Aroma installer" would crash TWRP 3.2.1.1)
I'm quite the novice at all this, and maybe it shows? I'd just like my audio back and it's quite evident that flashing roms isn't the solution I had hoped it to be.
Flash the latest stock ROM for your phone to see if everything goes back to normal.
I'm not sure what the latest stock rom would be. My phone originally had lollipop on it which had samsung's touchwiz.
sammobile or updato.com for firmwares .
Okay, thank you. I'm downloading one now. Does choosing the correct carrier matter? I ask because I'm not sure who the original carrier is and the phone is also unlocked and since it is, I would think that choosing a specific carrier doesn't matter.
I flashed the original firmware and got sound on my phone again, and just now as I type, I got finished re-rooting and putting TWRP on my phone and flashed RR Oreo and I have sound.
This is all so very interesting and I can't help but wonder why I lost sound to begin with. Any thoughts?
Bad download or flash or wrong file for model are usual whys.
Oh, I see.
Well, my model is a sm-n900w8 and when searching for roms specific to that one, I've encountered some people saying, on this very site, that the sm-n900w8 is a Canadian model and it isn't widely supported, but went further to speculate that roms that work with the sm-n9005 should work with the sm-n900w8. I even found a forum post about a kernel that helps give compatibility for n9005 roms to n900w8 roms. I'm not sure if "compatibility," is the right word to use, but I hope you get what I mean.
Personally, every time I go to flash a rom, TWRP says it is successful but when I actually reboot my phone it gets stuck on the logo screen, usually with the text "Kernel is not SEandroid Enforcing" and I've even had similar text with 'recovery' instead of 'kernel' pop up.

Converting n910p to n910f - need help

Hello,
I have a problem converting samsung note 4 n910p to n910f. At the beginning I dowloaded TWRP and flash it by Odin. I made a backup of everything then downloaded the rom for samsung galaxy n910f Pixel Experience. When installing rom I get a message "ERROR 7". It occurs when installing each custom os example: ViperOS, HAVOCOS rom. All the time there is the same problem. On the xda forum I found a user manual how to flash the baseband firmware. I flashed OK1 - nothing has changed then PE2 - the same, "error 7" is still there. I also tried the Trex888 user manual to install T-mobile OS + ramkernel + datafix and the phone stops while loading - bootloop and the teelphone temperature is rising that I cant touch it when I leave it on the bootloop.
Do you have any verified way to install custom rom to n910p? It's hard to find a clear instruction on what to change to flash a custom rom on n910p
I restore backup and have a bootloop on the sprint logo
I ll try to instal Dr Keaton rom with H-vitaminkernel, maybe this ll help...
see
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68967827&postcount=2
and subsequent posts in that thread
I will check the method described in this post again, but I did it before :crying:. All new roms with android 9 like for example havocOS have written that they also work with trtlespr. This is written in the information when installing the rom in twrp. So why does error 7 pop up for?
I did the first method by installing the PE1 baseband from this topic:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/development/basebandsbootloaders-ok1-pc1-pb5-t3358357
Then, according to the instructions, I installed the system, krnel and datafix.
"Try this rom this will work flash rom and dartafix and kernel all together
Download rom
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=385035244224381907
Download data fix
https://mega.nz/#!qcdnySyB!55DemVnZN...a0u4_V60fn5mKo
Download kernel
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=117985 "
The system doesn't start, it stays on SAMSUNG screen and gets bootloop. The phone heats up very strongly within a few minutes, it is possible that even the processor temperature is higher than 80 * C.
By installing firmware and baseband PE1 from the above link in Odin shows that everything is ok ( success). But can it be that, despite everything, the baseband did not get in, therefore it does not accept this rom or any other?
The same example, when after flashing TWRP by Odin, if we do not disconnect the battery, TWRP will not install. Is this possible with baseband and frimware for PE1?
Ok, I tried everything that was in the post you linked. I flash my phone to PE1 firmware, then install dedicated rom, datafix, kernel from links and phone stuck on samsung loading logo. This situation i s always when i try any rom. When I do a restore backup phone stuck on Sprint logo...
Can anyone help with this?
Has anyone ever installed a customrom with android 9 on n910p?
I have sm-n910f as a backup and I can do anything on it.
Are these n910ps somehow handicapped?
n910p that I ave is in very good visual condition, without scratches. If I can't do anything with flashing new rom on n910p phone, can I buy a motherboard from n910f or n910c and install it inside instead of n910p board?

Thanks, for the reply. maybe I ll try to once again install the customrom before I order the board form China :cyclops:
Can someone explain me how to install example HavocOS ( android 9 ) on n910p? This is possible because when I install it in TWRP there is information about compatible version of phones and there is "trtlespr". So it must be possible to install HavocOS on n910p
Why I need to change the rom in this phone? I live i Europe so Sprint stock rom dont want to connect with my Red Bull Mobile or T-mobile operators...
Ok, I install Dtux Rom on Standard PK1 Sprint rom. Working, but I hv problem with T-mobile network. Everything is working on the GSM module but without internet. When I go to settings and then network -> change to CDMA or LTE I hv information "Searching for service" and no signal. So how to activate mobile data - internet connection on this rom? I know thath LTE is not working in EU with Sprint N4 but even CDMA is not working
