i ended on step 7, when i install stock rom my odin just say false or fail .
Please help me

If you will flash normal firmware on I9505x, odin will stop at flashing modem... Demo units don't have modem hardware, so you need firmware without modem, or just download a pre rooted firmware.
1. Rename it by removing .md5 extension, so you'll have i9505XXXX.tar.
2. Open it with 7-zip, delete NON-HLOS.bin and modem.bin and flash it.

Hi thanks for reply but 7zip tells me that he ecant open tar files.

Please help me

Download and flash through odin DDLC2_ODDLA2_DDLC2 or DDLE1_DDLD1_DDLE1. Even I had problem with DDLA3_DDLA2_DDLA2.
Hope it works now.
hmmm
Im really confused, because if you flashed merruk kernel and it did not work then just download recovery kernel..
put phone in download mode (power+home+volume down)
plug phone to pc while odin is open
choose recovery kernel on PDA option (don't check or uncheck anything)
flash it and it should work... lol

It was happened to me before.. I have no choice but to flash to a fresh STOCK ROM with stock Kernel.
The SOLUTION would be ODIN. Go to Doky's thread and select the latest version of your firmware based on your country - download and extract.
Here's his thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1465800
Now, download ODIN if you're not having it yet. here's the thread - credits to OP : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1464775
Here's the instruction on how to flash to STOCK ROM and Kernel. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21846668&postcount=2
I did formatted my sd card extent that time too hope it helps.
anyone can help

from where can i get a flashable zip of stock kernel??????
Idk. Search...
Try to get a boot.img of stock kernel.
Then search for Sgybicwm.zip in general section. Put the stock boot.img in root of your sdcard and flash sgybicwm.zip via cwm. You are done.
Any other boot.img flasher like faqbly wont work. I just tried it with hells fusion 50. it has a stock kernels boot.img inside stock folder of the kernels zip. Get that and sgybicwm.zip

i dont know what is download mode. i cant go in recovery mode too. its my fisrtt mobile.only passed 3 months with it . o god i am crying:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Ok.
Here is what you need to do.
Download a stock rom from dock73's thread from dev section (its a sticky one, so no trouble in finding it).
Then download odin3 v1.85 from same thread.
Get samsung mobile device drivers.
Install drivers first.
Then extract all those zips (rom and odin ) in a separate folder.
Open odin.exe.
Then switch off your phone (pull battery if nothing works).
Press Volume down + Power + Home Buttons All at same time
You will be I'm download mode.
Press volume up and connect your phone to pc with data cable.
You will see a yellow signal on odin screen. Dont change anything and just add those files from the firmwares you extracted in the folder.
Csc.tar.md5 for csc
Modem.tar.md5 for phone
And
pda.tar.md5 for pda
Click on start and it will show a pass to you when completed.
Hope that complets all for you.
If you still dont get head over to docky thread.
And see 2nd post.

Galaxy S3 i9300 Unbrick [restore to stock rom] [noobs][easy]

Hi guys! This is a noob-proof guide on how to flash stock samsung firmware on your i9300. Whether you have bricked it or just want the stock firmware back. Here's how to do it (detailed explaination)
WARNING! : This is only for the GT i9300 (international version) , Check your device before proceeding. Also you might lose all your data. So backup! i am not responsible if you brick your phone(although very unlikely) by not following the guide properly
Also you will lose your custom recovery, Custom ROM and will not longer have root
Ok lets begin!
1. Make sure you have the samsung drivers installed on your pc (http://bit.ly/SDaIIE)
2. Your device should have at least 80% battery left
3. Enable USB Debugging by going to Settings>Developer Options>Tick the Usb debugging tick box!
Files needed :
1. Android 4.1.2 I9300XXEMC3 for Galaxy S3 I9300 - http://www.hotfile.com/dl/202240205/4dcf384/I9300XXEMC3_I9300NEEEMC1_NEE.zip.html
2. Odin 3.07 - http://bit.ly/16aRzF4
Extract The firmware Zip file until you get a file with a .tar extension and some other files. Do not extract furthur
Extract odin zip file till you get Odin3 v3.07.exe
Now here comes the actual flashing part
1. Power off your smartphone. Wait 5-6 seconds for vibration to confirm complete switch off.
2. Now, get into Download Mode by pressing and holding Volume Down, Home and Power button simultaneously until Samsung Galaxy logo appears in phone screen. Wait few seconds and your phone will be in download mode.
3.Open odin as administrator and connect your s3 to your computer with usb cable
4. You will get a message "Added" in the message box in odin and You should also see COM port with a number in Yellow if you successfully added your device.
if you don't get this , try another usb port.. if it still doesn't come , reinstall drivers.
5. Select these files from I9300XXEMC3 folder in Odin at respective buttons:
Click the PDA Button, and select the .tar.md5 file here with *code* appearing in its name
Click the Phone Button, and select file with *modem* in its name (leave if there is no such file)
Click the CSC Button, and select file with *csc* in its name (leave if there is no such file)
Click the PIT Button, and select the .pit file. Use only if you got it while extracting , otherwise ignore it.
6. make sure Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time checkboxes are selected. Also, make sure that Re-Partition checkbox is selected, only if you are using a .pit file
7. Double check everything above and hit start!
8. once flashing is complete the phone will reboot automatically and soon you will see a PASS message with green background in the left-most box at the very top of the Odin. You can then unplug the USB cable to disconnect your device from computer.
After completing these steps, Make sure to wipe the cache and do a factory reset in clockworkmod recovery if you do happen to find yourself in a bootloop (phone rebooting continuously) Or just do it anyways to prevent a bootloop from occurring.
congrats! , you have just restored your i9300!
If this has helped you make sure to hit the thanks button!

Yes and no... You must reformat partitions and upload an ICS bootloader. Not for the regular user i'm afraid

This normally happens when the partitions on the embedded multi media card gets corrupted for whatever reason, also known as the emmc.
The phone can be revived by flashing a pit file to repartition the emmc in order so it can be written to.
Download and unzip this file and you will have a .pit file which you put in the tab marked PIT in Odin
GT-I9300_mx_20120220.pit = Galaxy S3 of 16 Gb
GT-I9300_mx_20120322.pit = Galaxy S3 of 32 Gb
GT-I9300_mx_20120329.pit = Galaxy S3 of 64 Gb
(Just google the one that you need and download it)
Next make sure > r partition, f /reset, and auto reboot are ticked in options in Odin.
Next put the stock rom in the tab marked PDA, if flashing a custom rom then flash a rooted kernel first in PDA together with the pit file, hit start and start the flashing process, afterwards this will also give you the option of flashing the rom from recovery, next, flash the custom rom from Odin or from recovery
When finished the phone should reboot and start up.

If it is an official ROM package, it shouldn't trigger yellow triangle.
Even in that case, you can use Triangle Away app from Chainfire and see how it comes to zero

it doesn't matter if you can do it - it's as useless as changing the wallpaper before flashing

[SOLVED] My Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S5360 won't start

Hello everybody
My friend has a Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and since yesterday it won't start. It shows "Samsung Galaxy Y young" and doesn't start. So I decided to try to root it and install Jellyblast v3 but it's the same problem. I followed a tutorial and tried to wipe cache and data but still the same problem. So now I read that the people who had the same problem as me, resolved their problem by flashing the stock rom with odin. But I saw that we needed some information like PDA, PHONE and CSC but I can't have these informations as the phone won't start So I am going to follow a tutorial to flash it with odin. But I'm worried about bricking definitely her phone :s So I want to know if there is no risk to brick her phone if I try to flash a stock rom without knowing these information (PDA PHONE CSC).
Thanks for your help and sorry for my bad english °° !!

no you cant flash stock "firmware" without odin
if you flash a so called stock firmware via cwm all you are doing is flashing a custom rom with no modifications - slight technically difference

wouldnt work though if you changed your file system to ext to use cm7/9/cyanmobile/pa
you can only restore a nandroid backup fully if you restore it on the kernel on which it was made and you are on the same file system as it was made although you can advanced restore if on different kernel and should work if it can verify md5 sum

there is only to types of cwm for galaxy y
1 - tempory cwm zip - flashed in stock recovery to give you cwm - this zip must be flashed each time you enter recovery to bring up cwm
2 - perminant cwm - this is included in a custom kernel and replaces stock kernel and stock recovery with a custom kernel and recovery
if you flashed a kernel state which one it was

I Just Cant do anything to my Note 3 n900w8, WHY?

let me start by saying I've read almost all your threads only reason im actually bothering is because I'm really feeling like smashing my phone to bits .... that's how frustrating this has been. my phone was rooted and custom ROM till about 4 weeks ago, when Tmobile told me the IMEI on my phone was reported as stolen ... i grabbed my box as my phone i have since it was new and compared the IMEI ... to my surprise IMEI on box and on Phone chasis was not same as the one inside phone .... my phone was unblocked by a local unblocking service here in PR so i went to them and surely they took my phone and lent me another one while it was getting fixed ... "IMEI" was being changed again and it wasn't the one on the box either ... the gave me lame excuse about my IMEI .... they kept my note 3 for a week almost 2 after i got it back my note 3 said it was rooted but i couldn't use any apps for rooted phones as it would say i didn't have root access ... as i no longer trust these people i went on and tried fixing the issue myself ... and here's the thing i have tried absolutely everything cf auto root tar from download mode and even thru odin all versions of odin and using the sm-n900w8 cf auto root and the right roms "different one's to see if it was the rom's or the phone" i am about to give up i simply cannot root my phone so that i can install a modified rom ... thought of contacting you guys ... as my last resort ... i am so sorry to bother i know you guys are very busy ... but if you guys cant help i will have to settle for just a regular note 3 and that sucks... i have picture of absolutely everything i have tried and the outcome and the errors i have gotten and all in pics if needed...
Please pardon me for asking for a little help i really thought i could done this i guess i am not as savvy as i have thought...
Thanx in advanced Emilio Pinella
Does the IMEI on the box match the IMEI on the label attached to the battery compartment?
Have you tried using Odin to get back to a completely stock ROM, flash TWRP, and flash supersu from TWRP?
Ok here we go ...
Yes IMEI on box and phone chasis are same ... the different one is when you press *#06# ...
Secondly i have tried usin odin but absolutely all the files i downloaded are in .zip and odin does not recognize any of them i tried to convert from zip to .tar but it crashes odin thats why i have tried it from recovery mode ... even CF auto flash for sm-n900w8 doesnt work odin does recognize phone so it isnt a driver issue ... maybe if i had apropiate files in right format i could try flashing from odin ... but i dont and i cant find the files in .tar which is what odin recognizes ... as i said i have really tried almost everything ... i have been wondering can it be possible these people lock my phone in a way i could not do anything? ... will wait for your replay ... my phone sucks @The Moment i havent downloaded anything as i am factory resseting everytime i try a new method ... just fyi i do activate devops and usb debug after each wipe ...
Use 7zip or WinRAR to extract the zip from sammobile.com. Once unzipped, it should give you a tar. md5 file.
hello again...
well i was certain of my answer but before i started writing i had doubts so i went and open all the files i have for flashing with odin ... and yes none of my .zip files have any .tar files in them , i have no clue why they are zip files if they are intended for use with odin ... so i went to sammobile.com and yes i had downloaded the 3 files pertaining to my cel phone and tried flashing the stock rom but none of them worked ... some just werent recognized and some gave me whole file signature error or signature failed error ...
i have Tesla-hlte-5.1.1.High_Voltage.2.1-Release-20150824 and its a zip and has no .tar, inside also have cm-12.1-20150423-UNOFFICIAL-temasek-hlte-V10.4 and also no .tar inside and its in .zip format, also have X-Note_Build_15_ND5_Public and yes its a zip and no tar inside...
SM-N900W8-4.4.2-(KOT49H.N900W8UBUCNI1) is my original ROM and it does not have .tar inside ....
something they all do have in common is they have an img file inside that cannot be open ...
and i downloaded files for twrp but jajaja also in zip and no tar inside , just an image file wich is not recognized by odin and not recognized by recovery mode either as i have tried putting all these files in my sd card and have tried doing from recovery ending with results of .... whole file signature failed and signature failed error and also wrong footer error i have pic of all this ... would you want me to send them to you i wouldnt mind... btw thx for your time i really apreciate it.
If the files came from sammobile.com, they are defnintely tar. md5 files.
How many times are you unzipping the file from sammobile.com? The original file from sammobile.com should only be unzipped once.
Well after last replay i went and downloaded all 4 available files for my note 3 from the one dating at 2013 to the one with 5.0 lolli i will do this again tonight and will post the results ... i am certain they will be the same as last time but can you please remind me of steps to take using odin and which odin should i use as i have a few versions .
Once again thx for your time .
I like Odin 3.07 which is what I always use.
If you use Odin 3.07, put the phone into download mode, open Odin 3.07, place the tar.md5 file in the PDA box, uncheck everything except f.reset time, connect phone to computer, flash, when you see the word "RESET" in the status window, remove USB cable, remove battery, replace battery, use button to boot into recovery, perform a factory reset, wipe cache, reboot.
Ok
I will do this from home as soon as i get there and i will post results any specific one you would want me to start with?
Start with a rom that matches the bootloader currently on the phone.
Ok
Hmmm is bootloader the number after model example UBUCNC1?
Yeah just checked and bootloader would be for my current 4.4.2 N900W8UBUCNC1 .... Also says that latest firmware is one of the firmware i downloaded the one containing lolli 5.0
So you downloaded the cnc1 from sammobile.com and there is no tar.md5 file after unzipping?
Just got home
I got home im unzipping and i will let you know in about 2 minytes if there are tar.md5 inside what i downloaded ...
Ok so far so good
All have .tar.md5 in them so i will try flashing with same rom version i have 4.4.2 to see if then i can root and flash a cutom rom ... tell you in a few minutes how it went... wish me luck.
ok finished
i finally got to flaSH WITH odin and now my phone is 5.0 lolli ... can you guide me on how to flash root with odin as cf auto root does not work i took picture of what it did when i tried to auto root tell me where to send it .... or can you tell me where or who might have tesla 5.1.1 high voltage rom or X-note in .tar.md5 format ...
once again thanks for your time and understanding all i need now is to be able to root it so that i may install custom rom after i actually find them in .tar.md5 format.
Find twrp here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2494245
Get the latest 2.8.7 or any 2.x.x 4.4 .tar.
Then get SuperSu flashable. You can google that.
Flash twrp with odin.
Flash SuperSU.zip with twrp.
It's rooted.
If you want to flash a custom rom just flash the rom of your choice in twrp. No need to root first.
Sent from my SM-G925F
Root is not required if you want to install a custom ROM, just install a custom recovery. I recommend flashing TWRP.
Find TWRP for your device from here (make sure you download the tar version of TWRP): http://teamw.in/Devices/
Supersu 2.46 is here: https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU Download and save Supersu to either the internal or external memory. If you put supersu on an external memory card, power off the phone and put the card into the phone.
Boot the phone into download mode.
Open Odin and uncheck everything except f.reset time.
Click on PDA/AP button and put TWRP into the box.
Connect the phone and flash TWRP in Odin.
When you see the word "RESET" in the status window, remove the USB cable, remove battery, replace battery, boot into recovery, flash Supersu, and reboot.
Ok will do now and tell you if anything ... but i read somewhere this version of android is unflashable ... but i will try what you are saying .
Which version of Android is not flashable?
Ok i gotta say if it wasnt for you i would still be stuck ... fortunetly i am riding 5.0 lolli and my phone is now officially rooted all i need to do is get tesla's 5.1.1 high voltage on it and i will be good ... so basically just need tesla in .tar.md5 to be good ... all thx to you .
Where can i download it or now that i have twrp as my recovery can you guide me thru on that? ... thx again.

Installed wrong kernel for my galaxy note 4 ( SM-N916K )

Hiii guys
I just messed up my phone ahahahahahahah ( lol I am going crazy )
I wanted to install a Galaxy Note 7 Porting (?) Rom on my Note 4.
The rom and the kernel I installed is supposed to be only installed on n910c/h.
I cannot find any kernel for this phone..
The problem going on my phone is :
- I tried installing a stock rom back on my phone and it shows up DRK error. ( Its saying DRK is not installed )
- Whenever I charge my phone when its off, I cannot even turn it on. It will freeze so I have to reinstall the battery to turn it on.
- I managed to install some other roms but it only shows black screen.
- No problems on the recovery. Recovery supports my model.
can someone help me to find a kernel for this phone? I am keep googling to save this phone.
( nah should I just throw away this phone and get a new one? lol jk )
I FIXED MY PHONE!
- First, download the stock .md5 file from https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N916K/. OR if you can understand Korean, http://www.matcl.com/torrent/3013489. ( This website is more faster to download but requires you to register )
- Second, get the .md5 file by extracting the .zip file.
- Third, Install the .md5 file.
- Now, it will show the DRK error.
- Install CF-Auto Root https://download.chainfire.eu/834/C...to-Root-tre3caltektt-tre3caltektt-smn916k.zip
- Be patient, phone will be rebooting for 3~4 times.
- Now you're done!
+ I will keep this thread open just in case some other people needs help.

Download stock firmware for your device and you can extract the kernel.
You have to rename the stock firmware from (home.tar.md5) to (.zip)
Then extract the file you will get (boot.img) thats the kernel.
Copy to device and flash from twrp recovery (flash image) method.

Your DRK (DEVICE ROOT KEY) is messed up.
Try on your own risk.
Go to www.tsar3000.com and download repair firmware for your model .
Extract repair firmware you will get 5 files (BL,AP,CP,CSC,PIT FILE ) go to odin options and check "nand erase all".
flash all files together from odin then do factory reset from stock recovery.
Hopefully this will help.
