Odin a modem...any modem...should solve your issue
sent from my epic 4g. with the key skips.
If it just won't make calls and stuff, try updating profile and then PRL. If it is FC'ing all over do a factory data reset, reflash the ROM and kernel, flash the journal on zip as John suggested, then redownload apps. Do not restore any data unless you are sure it is good and absolutely need it.
i cant make calls, text, internet, nothing , so i cant update the prl or profile. whats the journal? im fairly new to this ive been rooted and on the custom roms for a few months now.how do you do a factory reset.? this blows i gotta get it up and running. i appreciate the advice from all

Think I killed my GS3. :(

Wasn't paying attention when updating my ROM for a AT&T GS3 and accidentally tried to install the Verizon Equivalent. Original ATT Rom was AOKP Jelly bean.
Anybody have any ideas on what to do? The phone doesn't seem to be able to enter recovery mode, but can enter "Downloading... Do not turn off target !!"

Odin back a stock firmware and see if that works. Look in the stickies in development section.

Yeah, if you get the "downloading" then you're golden. Just use Odin to restore to stock.

Thanks guys. I started getting worried when the new version of Odin was not connecting with my GS3. Luckily, the older version on my computer synced right up and am going back to stock.

Good thing it seems like the architecture of the US GS3s is similar enough that flashing another carrier's ROM won't result in a nice hard brick that requires JTAG/warranty fix.

You definitely cannot use the same root for Epic 4g touch as Galaxy S2, they have 2 different kernels. Can you get into download mode? Take battery out, put back in, and hold down power button and down button at same time. If you can get it into download mode, you can find the correct rootkit and redo.

You do have the Epic 4g Touch. Sprint just decided to play long with the renaming since this phone is going out to multiple carriers now.
HOPEFULLY you did NOT flash the international kernel on your phone, it's still functional and you can still get into download mode.
If you can, then you need to flash a complete odin one click and get back to "normal"..

Please see my last quote, I said to disregard the file. At the beginning of his quotes, he said he had the files for epic 4g touch and that it was wrong, and then he verified that it was correct, so I said to ignore.

Try downloading the FI27 Rooted Restore from the Android Development forum - just search FI27 and click the thread with my name on it. Flashing this should hopefully get you back in working order.

HELP!!

So I flashed my phone back to stock. Accepted the OTA for 5.1.1. Today I took my phone off of my charger it went into a boot loop for some reason and wont come out. factory data reset and cache clear don't help. Samsung rep at best buy doesn't have 0g5 yet to flash. Does anyone know how to get a hold of the ODIN files to reflash my phone. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

Not really sure whats going on over on that thread. So let me give you my comprehension of it. So my phone cannot be rooted with 5.1.1. So my question becomes how do I flash TWRP? Also, if I can enable TWRP can I flash CM 12.1? I am not up and running quite yet.
Thanks
So I tried fixing this beast at 2 am when I got home lol everything was a blur and I really was tired from work so nothing made sense. I just reread the thread and tried it. CM 12.1 IS UP AND RUNNING>>>>THANK YOU ALL SOO MUCH!!!

Rooting Sprint Note 4 on PJ1

Hey folks. I've had my note for almost 2 years and used to be able to use hotspot with "no root" hack. But that no longer works. I'm looking now to root my note but can't seem to find instructions. I'm on the latest PJ1 OS. Can anyone post a link to the instructions? Would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your input. Unfortunately I'm not very familiar with the process you described. And so i have a few questions. The systemless root....is that basically installation of superuser? Do any of these (systemless root, custom recovery) need to be specific to this version of the software? Would you be able to recommend a thread on how to perform this through odin?
Thanks again!!!

First off some things you should do before ever flashing or rooting your phone.
1. Make sure ReActivation Lock is OFF. (Its in Settings>Security>Reactivation Lock = make sure its unchecked)
2. Turn on Developer options. (Goto Settings>About device and tap Build Number 4 to 5 times; then develepers options will be in settings menu, goto that and turn on USB Debugging)
3. You'll need Official Samsung Drivers HERE! Install this to your PC!
4. Always Backup Phone!! After you install TWRP.
IM gonna assume your on a Stock ROM. To root your gonna need to use Odin to flash TWRP, then once thats done we'll root from there.
You'll need these files :
1:
Odin3.11 from Here. It's straight from sam mobile. Is what I use and never have problems. You'll install this to your Windows PC.
2:
TWRP 3.0.2.0 tar file from Here. This file is only for the Sprint Note4 SM-N910P, So that better be the phone you have!! Download and save to PC! You can Thank bigbiff at this Thread.
3:
Lastly you need SuperSU Here! Thanks to Chainfire at this Thread! Download and save to your Phones SD card or Internal memory.
Now you have the files. Make sure you dont have samsung Kies running while installing or flashing your phone. Actually Dont have any other programs running when Flashing your phone.
1st - Install Samsung Drivers to your PC.
2nd - Install Odin to your PC.
3rd - Copy SuperSU zip file to your phone.
Now unplug your phone and turn it off. And open Odin Program as Admin. Now on your phone hold down the Vol down button + Home button + Power button at same time until a screen shows a Warning. then you'll press Volume up to continue to Download Mode.
Once in Download mode plug into usb cord to PC. Your pc should install some drivers then Odin will show your device as connected. Goto options tab in Odin and make sure all the boxes are unchecked except F. Reset Time.
Then click the log tab so we can watch the progress were gonna make. Then click the AP button and load the Twrp file you downloaded into that.
Click Start, Let it do what it does, dont touch anything until it done. Once down unplug phone and take out battery for 5 seconds.
Put battery back in and press Vol up + Home + Power until phone boots into Twrp Recovery.
Once in Recovery I sugessst to do a Full Backup.
Then you can Hit Install button in Twrp and find the Super SU file you saved on phone and Install and reboot when it says. Your ROOTED!!
Hope this isnt too confusing. It really isnt that hard. But it's easier to do than to explain.
FYI,
And Yes, systemless root is super SU in this case. All newer stock samsung roms can only be rooted with systemless root. System root won't work. There are ways to do it with custom roms and kernels though. And also there are other root apps like superuser, but this is the most common way.
Thanks aaron74 i was at work trying to explain between customers
Been away for a while so just now reading this thread. Many Thanks to you both for the links and detailed explanations. I will try this soon and advise how it turns out.
By the way, is this the same method to root a Sprint galaxy S4 on latest stock rom? Want to do this on my kid's phone also.
Oh and I assume this will trip KNOX correct?

Yes it will trip Knox.
And the s4, not sure exactly, but it will be very similar. But obviously have its own twrp file. Just goto it's forum and do a search for root. Something should pop up.
Ok thanks again for your help
Hay so its been awhile since i did any messing with my note 4. I wanted to be able to use android pay. But i read a comment about some system ui customized program and it said android pay still worked. So my question is is there a way to root the note 4 now and still be able to use android pay or did i misread the message

THANKS! EASIEST ROOT EVER! I was going to downgrade to PE1 cause that's the only info I can find, thanks so much to the two who posted regarding this.
TIPS:
TWRP won't flash: I've had issues with TWRP where it won't flash in the past, this happened to me once again. It was going to an installing update screen after flashing, then some error message, then went to Samsung recovery instead of TWRP. SOLUTION: Pull battery after install, then it will stick. If needed rinse and repeat, eventually TWRP will install properly.
Hotspot: You can message some guy to get hotspot supposedly, a few messages above this one.
Knox: I couldn't disable knox first time, on second try it worked. I recall this happened last time as well on my note.
