That's how it's supposed to be as long as you don't save the Windows file to an attachable memory device, e.g. a flash drive. This is a special file designed for flashing. You can extract the contents normally. However, I recommend using a ZIP with the contents of 4 files to wipe the phone's partitions.
so how do i find these 4 files you mention,and how do i flash them,is there a guide,with most roms i just download a rom zip and install with twrp,why in this case are there invalid zip messages?,thanks.
this is what i see on unzipping the file on my p
this is what i see when i unzip the file,is it ok as i dont see what to flash with odin!.,there are from what i understnd 4 files i need to flash but i dont see them,can someone explaine why i dont see them?,thanks.

Hello,
I'm on the new side with flashing in such and need to know what file is run in Odin on the PDA line? The videos always show a MD5 file but I don't see one in the zip file I downloaded. How would I go about creating this file type? The remaining steps of the process seen easy.
Thanks, in advance

I'm somewhat confused here. Are you saying that I must install some program in order to make a MD5 file. Maybe it would be easier if I just knew what file to run on the PDA line. Is it the BOOT.IMG file? I would like to run this new KK software.
Thank you!

Okay in this screen shot there's the Odex rom and then the deodexed rom. Last is the firmware.
After you have flashed either one of the Odex or Deodexed roms in Safestrap 3.65 stock slot and remember to wipe the stock slot first.
So after the rom is flashed the don't reboot system but reboot to download mode and open up odin.
Prior to doing all this download the firmware to your computer. Once downloaded extract the the file that shows the as tar. After having odin open click on the PA and put that file in there and let it run its course checking the file. Then when it's done hit start.

This is very simple
Iv already written a whole guide for this

Once you have extracted it you can just load it into a working folder in kitchen or do what you like with it

You are in the wrong path!
Look at
Code:
META-INF\com\google\android
not at
Code:
META-INF\com\android
Oh this is embarrassing
Maybe one last question, as I did a lot of version back and forth and I am not able just to flash the bootloader or/and modem file of 19s, I would like to do a clean install of the recovery.
So if I do factory reset with data and cache and start the instalation this will be complete clean?
Or should I delete some files or folders which are beside the sdcard folder, too?

Lol , I made a factory reset and flashed the modified update.zip and now I lost my baseband. What should I do now, I don't really want to use my backup because of the wrong modem version...
Had once a little boredom and made a MOD for the themeing of Custom Splash Screen. Just like S8(+) and S9(+). You can change now pictures without to modify and flash the bootloader (up_param.bin).
Important: The MOD only works with Exynos-9810-based devices!
Important2: Its untested, but works on my s8+ and on s9(+).

How to Flash
Place the zip on the internal/external memory.
boots into Recovery
then click on "install" in the TWRP
searches for the folder where the zip file was placed
and flashes it by clicking on the zip and dragging the slider to the right at the TWRP
rebooting
How do I change the boot logo in the template?
open the exynos9810_N9_logochanger zip (with WinRar or 7zip) and replace the logo. jpg with another image of your choice
the new image must be renamed to logo. jpg again. Otherwise it won't work!
How to return to the Stock logo?
You don't like the custom logos anymore?
then just flash the zip appropriate for your device:
exynos9810_N9_logochanger_Stock_S9 (for Galaxy Note 9)
Troubleshooting
If your hanging in a bootloop without access to twrp, please reflash the bootloader via odin. TWRP and system boots up again.
Note:
Not all images work, the best results are achieved if you just edit the stock image.

I only ask you 2 things.....Do a firmware upgrade or root the device.
The main problem is the radio application. While I have English as my primary language, the radio only holds Polish and does not have a good signal.
Please Help me
any help?
Look for this instruction in 4pda.ru forum https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=936535&st=11880
Easy! For some reason, it is not described in detail and simply here.
I will try:
- download our scatter file to the computer (laptop);
- Download FlashTool with SP_Driver_v2.0 (firewood) and install on the computer (laptop);
- Download SuperSU.zip and throw in the root of the body;
- Download Android Terminal and install on the body;
- Download also TWRP, this one came up to me, the rest mirrors;
- rename TWRP to recovery.img - this is important!
- we throw recovery.img next to our scatter file;
- open FlashTool, load our scatter file, see that the checkmark is only on recovery! ;
- further according to the scheme as described on the forum - click Download, connect the switched off body and wait for success!
Success will be, of course, if the firewood is already standing and the dad-dad cord is whole.
- Now you need to reboot into recovery. to do this, turn on the body, launch Android Terminal, give the reboot recovery command;
- from TWRP we put zip SuperSU;
- ALL! We reboot and rejoice.
I hope it turned out simple and clear. Good luck!
