[Q] Problem rooting SM-N9005

For two days i have been struggling to root my new Orange Romania N9005.
First of all I downloaded CF Auto Root and Odin 3.09. Followed the steps exactly (i'm not new to rooting) ,Uninstalled Kies and downloaded the latest drivers only, and every single time I try to root it Odin gives the following error:
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..
<OSM> CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar.md5 is valid.
<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..
<OSM> Leave CS..

<ID:0/005> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
On the screen of the note 3 the following error in red : SECURE CHECK FAIL : recovery
I have since tried every single version of ODIN , tried flashing pre-rooted roms only to get my device soft bricked(Fails right at the very end, and then I restored via kies )
,I have tried to change usb ports to no avail, even tried to root it on 4 different laptops.Tried with different cables, with usb debugging on and off, NOTHING WORKS!!!
Please help me I am thinking of setting it on fire!!!

Try install Kies and try again...
/CK

tried with old kies and kies 3 as well.Also tried older drivers.
Do i have a locked BootLoader?This shouldnt be the case as it is an n9005.
Any way to check if bootloader is locked and if so any way to unlock it for the international version?
Thanks!

No one?
Doesn't any one know how to help?Don't know where else to ask.

I had the same issue while rooting my Galaxy S4,tried on every other laptop,different ports,cables and more but then I realized I was using the wrong file.
Yes,the international version comes with Bootloader unlocked so your bootloader is fine.Are you able to boot your phone into Download mode?I am sure u cant boot into Recovery mode,can you?
First go back and check your phone's model no and use the proper file and try again!I will help you,dont worry!

I deactivated the reactivation lock but still the same problem.I have Downloaded the CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar file several times same thing every time.My last chance is doing a full wipe of the system and then trying again.I hope orange Romania CSC does't have some sort of security block.
Frustrating thing is the phone is fully functional so i cannot ask for a replacement.And even after the dozens of failed flash attempts it still reads 0x0.
YES!!!Finally.A full wipe did it.!Thank you for your interest in helping me.

thanks for bringing this up.
so where do you get the proper file?
i have the same problem, and a full wi[e has not helped here..
kindly give the correct link.
thanks once again

Before you wanna flash. Don't forget to uncheck reactivation lock, put off your external sd card. And look carefully for your modem and radio. Don't switch with the another kernel before official launch comes.

Yes, the reactivation lock did it for me too. I was stuck at exactly the same point and couldn't think of why, and this didn't even come to mind. In fact, I forgot that I even did that, but it worked. !!!

Help please, I have a (Note 3) SM-N900V on JSS15J.N900VVRUBMJE.
I bought it on Jan 12th ish, and took the firmware update as soon as I saw it because of some reading I had done.... shouldn't have done that I guess.
I am still totally unable to root this thing, Kingo, Odin v3.0.9. I am willing to do w/e (go back to older firmware even if possible)
I know there are no guarantees in this attempt, and would not hold you to anything, I have rooted every other android I have had and am very familiar with the process, any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated

This has helped. Thanks a lot.

[Q] Bricked phone while uninstalling APKs

Bricked my phone while uninstalling APKs. Was using version 4.3. Unsure of baseband version. After which I tried to turn on my phone and all I could see was the samsung logo and it got stuck there.
Tried to reflash my phone with version 4.3 kernels and ROMs to no avail.
Unable to get past Starting apps. Sometimes flashing just gives me a black screen.
Any help would be good. Much thanks.

Calm down mate, I know its hard, but that's what you need to do.
Now for that error, its absolutely normal. I have had the exact same error! I mean I still don't know why! I downloaded the German LP ROM and tried to flash it, and it failed, then I downloaded the Polish LP ROM and it flashed successfully. I was certain that the German ROM is meant for 16 GB devices, and as mine is 32 GB it would not flash, but then someone came and said there are no 16 GB models of Note 3 in Europe! Well if that's true then I don't know what's wrong!
So I guess you need to download the Polish LP ROM, and flash it. It should not fail.

No, seriously it doesn't matter what ROM you are flashing regardless of where you are. Yes, you should be able to fix that, at least that's what happened with me, so you shouldn't be any exception, I think.

But then it'll be in weird language? I won't understand any of it and apparently if you put wrong country or carrier on the sim can't tell the phone where to look for satellites to send texts and Internet ect

No it won't be in a weird language. I have flashed the Polish LP and the only way I can tell is that there were a couple of bloat ware apps in Polish.
And any carrier info about SMS etc us on the SIM (as you say and will not be affected by flashing the ROM.
I don't want to be nasty, but if you're this nervous about things then maybe you should stay away from experimenting in until you've read up a bit on it. I once this is fixed.

Try also connecting the cable on a different usb port and also try a different cable if it still fails.
Also if your gonna flash polish lollipop once its finish the first screen will be the choose your language selection then once selected everything will be changed to that language.
Happened to me once but first it was the usb port not supplying enough power so changed it to the back usb port then got at least 50% then failed again and finally replaced my usb cable and was successful.

Check settings-- security...if theres a reactivion lock option..make sure its disabled...it is there on the note 4 and note edge...not sure if itsthere on note 3..but check anyway...if not, maybe something as simple as a different cable and diff USB port may help

I can't get on my note 3,it only goes into download mode, why are people thinking its computer or cable?

Because computer usb ports and a busted cable are common reasons fir odin to fail....also make sure samsung kies, if installed, is not running...if you can only get to download mode...all you can do us try flashing stock firnware....or try flashing twrp with auto-reboot unchecked....and then manually reboot to twrp...push a rom and flash it

Tried flashing another stock ROM trying to get back to stock from root. That didn't work. Then I flashed this and am able to boot. But my mobile data icon is just 4G instead of being 4G LTE (or LTE), and I'm missing the WiFi calling button as well.
So, I probably need to flash the radios and everything with this. So, do I flash the AP first from the ZIP, then everything else after, or can I flash them all at once? Not an experienced ODIN user. Only used it a handful of times.

Yes you must flash all parts of this to be on stock PI4 ROM. But remember that you will lose root and not get it back.

You sir are a life saver thank you so much i was stupid didnt read thru forums and tried to root on the latest update...this flashed via odin brought my phone back to life

Yes you must flash all parts of this to be on stock PI4 ROM. But remember that you will lose root and not get it back.

Thanks, guys. Those were the answers I was looking for.

Hello I want to say thank you for providing the T-Mobile Firmware Package for restoring the Note 7 to its original state after a Rooting atampt botched up. I also had this problem but now restored the phone with the supplied firmware. Thank you.
I do have one problem though. The firmware supplied has the first update with the annoying Safety Recall statement in that hugh box while plug is inserted, pulled out and turned on. I like to know if you can supply the original firmware that the phone came boxed with or if you have some kind of way of getting rid of that stupid annoying big box message that pops up all the time.
And again thank you so much.

Ok I feel like a dumb ass,
This has to be the most complicated root, update I have ever seen. I accidently hit update earlier today which reduced my battery life to 60% I tried living with it today and it was driving me absolutely nuts I thought about taking the phone in and getting a damn iphone just because I'm tired of messing around with this phone..... I tried to root using post one however it keeps failing, I tried rooting using post 2 that also failed. I tried going back one firmware version that also didn't work, I tried doing the samsung smart switch recovery it asks for a code I tried the serial of the phone and model number that also didn't work. Can someone please explain either how to get root from the newest firmware or to revert back to a older firmware that dosen't have this stupid battery restriction. The information of my phone is below .

After rebooting the phone it wouldn't boot anymore and was stuck at "an error has occured while updating the device software. Use the emergency recovery function in the smart switch pc software"
So I gave that a go and it tells me that the device is not supported after doing the model and serial number lol.

If only it was that easy. As of now I can't even get into android it fails to boot. I cleared cache and factory reset and still won't boot. I'm sure I will have to flash now for sure from recovery or download mode. I think Samsung is ****n with us somehow to not let us flash.

The same thing happened to me. I re-flashed to the recent firmware I had installed originally (the one with the big ugly safety recall message from September). I flashed everything at once BL, AP, CP and CSC(I used the HOME_CSC_*.tar.md5 named file because I was returning to stock)

I think you will find this thread useful as well. It contains definitions and explanations on flashing and working with Odin. I just wish there was more information.

Galaxy Note 4 N910G Problem after trying to update phone stucks can't perform nothing

Hello. Here is my first post. So if sth is not clear tell me to add it.
I have a galaxy note 4 N910G. When the message for update came i accepted. The update was downloaded but then the problems started. Phone closed and didn't opened again. i waited for half an hour but nothing. So i searched on internet for what to do. I removed the battery and bla bla. The phone opened and the screen said Could not do normal boot. etc. When i go to perform a hard reset or soft reset it works but. The phone opens at the old version and it is really slow than ever. Also the phone after this can't perform a restart or if i shut it down i have to remove the battery and press the power button one minute and then i put the battery and it works but really really slow. When i hit on the settings for a reset the phone closes and don't open again. Also when i hit update software it says that failed to communicate to server try again when the phone is connected to a working wifi.
Flashing the stock rom again is not possible odin and kies report faults. Any ideas? How to have my phone back again? Maybe root the phone?
Thank you.

When you say the log what do you mean exactly?
I searched at the sit you suggested me. I started downloading one version
but my phone says it is from Singapore but there is no version for Singapore.
I started downloading N910G India. Is this ok?
I forgot to mention that someone maybe tried to root the phone but that failed.
Because this phone is not mine it's my cousin's i don't know what exactly happened.

Provided it is same biuld number like n910g it doesnt matrr
