Yeah I CANT seem to find a stable answer anywhere!
I ODIN flashed stock Oreo (lost root) after some issues installing un-stable ROM's cause I wanted Oreo earlier lol
I assumed it would be as normal steps?
1. Odin flash TWRP
2.Reboot recovery and flash no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip & Magisk.zip
3.Flash ROM via TWRP????
Best of luck, hope someone reads this thread.

Hey guys i just bought this international exynos note 3 (N900) and i have some questions about it ;
1. I want to install all the roms kernels and mods i could find but in order to do that (I'm %100 stock btw) ,do i need to first unlock the device ( i dont know how i couldnt find it), then root it with CF- Auto root( my warranty is over so i dont need to think about KNOX i think??) Then use the dd method to flash a recovery and flash whatever i want. Am i right about the things i said on all above ? Is there an easier way to do it ?
2. Do KNOX ever prevents me from flashing things in ODIN if something gets triggered ?
3. If i am not right about the first question starting from %100 stock what do i need to do to get this baby rockin ? I'm thinking about flashing a stock lollipop rom with a custom kernel and root ofc. Any suggestions ?
4. Do we need to flash modems from odin ? Because when reading the AryaMods thread i saw something about updating the modem. I'm on 4.4.2 right now. Can we flash modems or even kernels from recovery ?
Thanks already!!

There is no much of roms to choose for this one. 9005 is most supported here.
Root using cf auto root.
Make back up of ta partion/imei.
Flash recovery with odin. Then flash roms in twrp (watch the ere about how to use twrp or YT).
flash stock roms using odin.
Can't i just flash recovery from odin then flash a custom rom after that without rooting ? Thanks!

If you are going to flash roms based on lollipop, update your phone to latest stock rom for your model using odin so you get latest bootloader.
Dude, you need root access to access system and write to it. Don't custom roms require root, if you take a look? (don't answer to this [emoji61] )
If you want that way, flash twrp with ? odin. Then flash supersu for your model using twrp. That way too you get root. Then flash roms after (read rom instructions).
Ask if all wondering. ?

No my question was; not rooting the device in the first place before flashing the recovery and the rom. The roms already comes with the root in it. So just to be clear first upgrade the base to lollipop from odin then flash a recovery and lastly flash a lollipop rom. Would this be your sequence when you just bought a new note 3 ?

Flash latest firmware then custom recovery then flash the custom rom of your choice. No need to root after flash official firmware but it's good to root first as you may want to backup efs before you start messing the phone. I backed up the efs for the past 1.5years but so far never need it.

Thanks you very much mate!
Edit: I couldn't find the 5.0 version for my device the latest one is 4.4.2 for SM-N900Q. But there are 5.0 versions for SM-N900 for india and such. Can i flash one of them ? Does it interfere with anything so like just for a base ?

Ok. Thank you !
Hey guys, I'll keep it short. I was rooted, installed TWRP, running Simple Rom and was just feeling to flash erobot. Flashed it doing full wipes and then rebooted, cool. Got to the samsung logo and within a second back to the note 4 screen. Okay I said, maybe the file I downloaded was corrupted or I installed it wrong. Did it over again, this time trying a few variations in the aroma installer (not installing xposed) thought maybe that was the problem. Bam same issue.
No worries I still had the old simple rom on the sd card. Went back with the same install and what do you know, that rom is now in a bootloop as well. Tried flashing through odin but I always get a nand write failed to start or something like that. Tried 3 different usb ports and same issue.
Am I missing something? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
So you are using the Exynos model? Last I checked there is this OJ5 bootloader which can't be downgraded from!

Yes I'm on the exynos model. So what did I do wrong, I went from lollipop to a lollipop rom. I didn't go back to KK or anything. What do I have to do?
guys help me im having bootloop because i was trying to install the su suser .in my note 4 Note 4 N910C lolipop in tw recovery still boot loop? because i want to root it .send me a maasage thank you
Anyone?
Did you flash a kernel for your variant after flashing the ROM?
No but that is my next move today, had a feeling it might be the problem, I'll try it and report back.
Oj5 bl doesn't let the flash of older rom even lp 5.1.1 older then oj5 but erobot 12 and 13.4 are newest then oj5 so it must be something else like the supersu v2.65 have issues with some costum kernels try to flash v 2.45

Had the same problem, solved it by flashing cf auto root using ODIN.
can't you just flash the previous rom again??
Enter your recovery and flash your "old" rom
So I've normally been good at figuring stuff out on my own when flashing custom roms, rooting, etc but it's been awhile since I've messed with it and it seems things keep getting tougher (or maybe it's just me). Anyway here is the story... I am currently running JasmineROM (Android 5.0 Lollipop) on my Verizon Note 3 (SM-N900V), but I was considering upgrading to a version 6 Marshmellow rom like Temasek. One problem is that for some reason, I never installed a custom recovery so I am not sure how to proceed. I guess my questions are:
1. Do I need to downgrade to Kit-Kat somehow to install TWRP, and if so, what is a good guide?
2. What is the best, fastest, bloatware-free Marshmellow custom rom out there for SM-N900V right now?
3. I looked at the installation instructions for TWRP and it says to only use a specific version depending on whether your bootloader is the upgraded kit-kat version or not. How do I know this? Would it be updated since I'm using a 5.0 rom?
Sorry for the noobish questions and thanks in advance for any help!
Easy answers:
1 you can not back rev to KitKat
2 you can not install any custom recovery until you unlock the bootloader
3 you can not install any version of Marshmallow until you have installed a custom recovery because there is no official Marshmallow for the Verizon Note 3
Look in this forum for how to unlock the bootloader.

a. Unlock bootloader: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...l/official-note-3-verizon-bootloader-t3359370
b. Install TWRP ( I used 3.0.2-0 ) the easy way: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jmz.soft.twrpmanager
c. Install CM13 ( This is the only MM ROM I could get to work on the Verizon network) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...opment/rom-temaseks-unofficial-build-t3364382
Thanks for the help! I managed to figure it out myself after realizing I needed to unlock the bootloader. Thanks for taking the time to post!

Hi all,
Im using an S7 Edge on Nougat.
I used odin and cf room (https://download.chainfire.eu/930/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-hero2lte-hero2ltexx-smg935f.zip) to root my device.
After the process finished, my phone rebooted but stays on the animated samsung logo.
I've done a search, and im a little lost - please help - any help is useful.
Thank you
I never used Auto Root but if you look at the chainfire page, and see the S7 Edge it is just for 6.01 and not nougat. I think that's the problem
samsung SM-G935F
heroqltetmo
6.0.1

I think that you need to flash the stock firmware for your country with ODIN. Maybe someone else can verify this?
Trying this and im getting Secure check failed (bootloader).
I'm scared and need help.. Anything?
Hi,
You have to flash a Nougat stock firmware if you wish to flash using Odin. Samsung bootloader (Knox) doesn't allow an official firmware downgrade, and IIRC that message you are getting happens when you're trying to flash an older version of Android.
Get a newer stock firmware and try again, or if you prefer you can just flash a custom recovery and flash a custom ROM (which may be faster and already comes rooted). Also next time search for a rooting method for your Android version, rooting uses of the system partition, that means if you try using an old method, there's a risk of something not working fine.
All the best,
~Lord

Hi Lord,
Just did what you mentioned, you were spot on - the older bootloader caused issues with the data partition so i lost all apps/data and had to start from a scratch nougat install.
All is working now - appreciate your help, both of you - i will research more in future.
Just got a s7 edge g935v after my note 4 died on me.
I just finished rooting stock nougat now wondering what custom rom to go with.
From what I read the g935F rims and install instructions work with my model?
Any suggestions on the most stable rom to go with? Thanks
Also read there's no xposed framework for us to use?
Edit: also is there a working custom recovery? Or use flashfire to install roms?

mmk new issue. lost root. went back through to the steps to reroot. phone wont boot but can get to download mode. tried files supplied in this guide to go back to stock but odin fails every time https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...-to-notes-root-install-xposed-unroot-t3411039
EDIT: guessing the files in that guide are out dated. gonna try another firmware to get back to stock. from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-s7-edge/how-to/firmware-verizon-s7-edge-t3344092
EDIT.....again. this firmware worked . back to stock
Bro your bootloaders are locked. So you can't have a custom recovery or custom roms(well you can have stock roms bt I don't really count those.). So if you want custom roms and recovery and all that cool stuff if you can take back your 935V and get an international model.
That's what I figured. Hopefully someone figures out an unlock for this. No point in root for me without getting xposed frame work. Really missing my note 4 at this point.
Thanks for info.
