After more than a year with my 4.3 Note 3. I decided to flash a custom ROM. Namely Aryamod 6. (first attachment was the stock 4.3 I started with). I knew that I needed to backup my data so I decided to flash a custom recovery so I went about it by getting Rom Manager to flash CWM which eventually would allow me to flash TWRP. I eventually used the dd install method to install TWRP but that didn't work so I used odin to flash it. This caused my Note to freeze up a few minutes after booting with a black screen and the status bar just showing.
I decided to go through with flashing Aryamod v6 to get a fresh start. I flshed the BL and CP files which then caused my Note to go into a boot loop where I can't even boot to recovery. I was told to update to a 5.0 rom and I used the base rom of Aryamod v6 which is the BOE4 rom. Now when I try to flash the BOE4 rom I get the volume size is too big and invalid ext4 image.
Also sometime during the first bootloop I accidentally ticked Nand EraseAll but as far as I could see it did nothing.
Anyway, right now it is very difficult to download another ROM because of horrible Philippine isps and my Note is also my daily driver so I need to get it back into working order ASAP. These are the files I have:
ODIN 3.09
N9005XXUGBOEA_N9005OJVGBOE4_KSA - The Base ROM of Aryamod v6 a 5.0 rom
N9005XXUGBOEA_AryaModV6.0_Public - Aryamod v6
CP_N9005XXUGBOD3.tar.md5 - part of the aryamod instructions and I believe the modem of 5.0
BL_N9005XXUGBOEA.tar.md5 - part of the aryamod instructions and I think the bootloader?
twrp-2.8.7.0-hlte-4.3.img. zip- The twrp version I flashed when I was on 4.3
hlte-recovery.img.zip - I flashed this to get out of the recovery loop when I dd installed Twrp.
PIT-File-DBT+VFG-UK-MSM8974 - A PIT file.
SM-N9005_32GB.pit - another pit file. Flashing this got me into stock recovery.
N9005ZHUBMI7_N9005ZZHBMI7_N9005XXUBMI5_HOME.tar.md5 - I don't remember where I got this. Haven't flashed this but it might be a backup of my 4.3 rom
A few questions.
Can I fix my phone with these files?
When Flashing the BOE4, I just put it on PDA/AP? but in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/guide-t2983873, he seems to be putting it on everything.
I really need your help on these
I have no idea about that file you have, whether it will work or not, but the only thing I can say is, the Polish ROM is the Lollipop ROM which works on most devices, so you might wanna give it a try.
I don't live in a place with even decent ISPs, but I can download a ROM in less than two hours, so if your condition is not worse then you will have to download a ROM rather than depending on what you have.
Hey guys i followed this youtube guide for rooting 5.1.1 using TWRP Method https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpsGX_Xoxcg
i downloaded all the files but the firmware (not listen i have n910W8 = telus)
I have odin, supersu, TWRP (which n910w8 is listed) and samsung drivers.
I moved superSU and the TWRP file to root directory of note 4 5.1.1. rebooted into download mode, saw the blue indicator on odin and loaded the file. Rebooted holding volume up this time and tried to load the kernal but it doesnt exist.
I think im confused the TWRP file is NOT the kernal? Where can I get a kernal for n910W8 (telus)
thanks in advance!!
So I found this
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/56498/N910W8VLU1COI4_N910W8OYA1COI4_TLS/
which is telus 5.1.1 Rom. ill move this to my root directory and load the 910W8 TWRP file in odin and flash? Ill give it a try now wish me luck lol
ok i followed a guide online and now my phone just keeps restarting. I think im in big trouble. Im able to load openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.0-trltecan.img into odin and boot to TWRP but now i cant load kernels? looked so easy to do now im down a phone? any help is much appreciated thanks!!!
You need to odin (bell, rogers, telus) 5.1.1 then odin TWRP then twrp a custom kernel. Our 5.1.1 needs a custom kernel in order to work rooted. Or.....you can load a custom 5.1.1 rooted rom that is W8 compatible or any Tmobile rom such as Tekxodus which i am running.
ok so i loaded openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.0-trltecan.img in AP (for my device) copied the custom rom
" cm-12.1-20150423-NIGHTLY-trltetmo" which was suppose to work with my 910w8 (910T) used recovery to flash it and also supersu it flashed OK... I restart and i see a little blue guy and its stuck optimizing apps. Suck in restart loop.
what did i do wrong? try a different kernel ?
thanks in advance
EDIT 1
im trying the " Tekxodus" rom. this file is way larger whats going on with that. Is it the same procedure to flash it?
EDIT 2
Flashed to tekxodus rom optimizing apps... now its stuck System UI has stopped. and I cant do nothing. Any suggestions? ?? ?
EDIT 3
Do I need to flash a certain BootLoader along with the recovery for my device (BL and AP) ? , reboot in recovery and flash the custom rom ie "Tekxodus" ?
found this guide for 910C
http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/how-root-galaxy-note-4-n910c-android-5-1-1-lollipop-1518168 with these steps
"Step-1: Download the flashable root package and transfer it to the storage of the phone
Step-2: Download Android 5.0.1 bootloader package. Extract it using any extracting tool and you should find a folder containing Odin flashable tar package and Odin binaries"
so confused lol
All you have to do is Odin stock 5.1.1 rom (COI4 i believe) then Odin TWRP then flash Tekxodus V3.2. Let everything optimize and let it sit there for a good 10 mins after optimization. Ignore what its doing. It will just work. No need to flash anything else unless you want Xposed, then you flash that right after flashing Tek (do not boot in between)
any idea where to get a custom kernel for 910w8 5.1.1 to root stock rom?
Im running this rom (flashed using odin)
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/56498/N910W8VLU1COI4_N910W8OYA1COI4_TLS/
stock telus rom. I loaded this rom by clicking BL in odin and selecting it (along with my recovery for telus 910w8). This was the only was to get my phone back into working order.
______-
I loaded my recovery for telus into odin and went to download mode.
booted into TWRP
Flashed Tekxodus V3.2.
Optimized apps for about 10 minutes and it just restarted and optimized again and again.
One time it said System UI has stopped and I was hooped.
not sure where I went wrong?
thanks for the response btw I really want to get this going cheers

can i use any carrier software for the COI4? That's my only question. Thanks for helping!!
So I have a galaxys s5 g900f which i cleared it from a rom i used before and got it back to the original form of it. Got the .tar.md5 file of the official galaxy software from sammobile and installed it with odin. After that I wanted to root my phone again and stick with the official software. I tried to do that by the way I always used to with CF-Auto-Root using Odin once more and after downloading the file my phone was normally rebooting to recovery but it actually got stuck there without doing anything. Tried to flash twrp too but still nothing. The only thing i can flash at the time is the official software. Anyone had this issue before and can help? Thanks in advance
Flash the stock ROM again and get your phone back up and working properly
Then use this guide to root / twrp

Put the phone into download mode
Connect to PC USB
Check ODIN has the COM port highlighted at the top
Add the stock ROM to AP in ODIN
When it is ready, press Start
When ODIN is finished flashing, it will reboot your phone into your new stock ROM
Stock ROM running on your phone after that will be able to take OTA updates (As long as you don't root / custom recovery)
If you want root and custom recovery again, just do the same as you did last time, and each time you want to update, just follow the above, that's how I update
I tried to root my S7 Edge about 3 days ago when something went wrong and something got corrupted. Most of stock firmware was missing after installation from looking at files inside of TWRP. Long story short, I cannot flash stock ROM back onto my S7 Edge. I keep getting complete(write) operation failed inside of Odin when I flash stock ROM onto it. The only thing that I managed to successfully flash back was stock recovery and CP but I ended up flashing back to TWRP. Flashing stock BL gives me errors regarding sboot.img.
My phone is not bricked as TWRP works fine and I managed to flash DotOS onto it as a test and it worked fine and I had no issues flashing DotOS onto it either.
My S7 Edge (SM-G935F) is a UK phone locked to O2 updated to Android 8.0.0. I tried two or three stock firmwares from SamMobile under firmwares/galaxy-s7-edge/SM-G935F/O2U/ but I keep getting Odin compeltion failed error.
