Broken how? The image appears to be intact to me.
Go to sammobile.com and pick your Roms in firmware tab.
Or you could just go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2031840

That probably just means you don't have 7zip or something else capable of extracting .7z files on your computer.
Should be fine I was doing it to my friends phone last night just make sure you have 7zip installed and right click the file and extract

Is it possible for me to change a, . Exe file to a, . Zip file?
Generally, no. But I know 7zip ( http://www.7-zip.org/ )can extract the contents of many executables as if they were a zip. What is this for?
Generally no. But what do you need to do and I might try and help

I downloaded a exe file that I wntd to flash
It's probably not too wise to flash an .exe file to your phone. That's a windows executable file and this is Android.

Hey kingtnutt,
What are you trying to do with the .exe file? Do you need to extract it to pull files from it? More details would help.
If the .exe is a "self-extractor" it would probably work to change the extension to .zip and then extract it. It may not, though.

Ok, sounds like you have a self extractor. Follow the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1835033
Sounds like you're trying to install a One-click update.
There are instructions for installing via Mobile Odin here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721229
See the 'Android Section'
sfhub and rwilco12 have done a bang up job of putting up detailed install instructions.
Take some time and really read throught the posts, watch Qbking77's videos and then re-read the posts AND follow ups. Or you could end up with a shiny fishing lure.
Why not use PC Odin? Especially if you're just starting out. Might save you loads of trouble.
Good luck

Unfortunately those one-clicks are compiled in such a way that they can't be extracted. You have two options to flash it, Odin or Mobile Odin.
Out of curiosity, why would you want to convert it to a ZIP?

K. The good news is that these one-clicks make flashing with a ZIP look almost impossible. You seriously plug your phone in and press the start button in the one-click and you're done (that's over-simplifying but you get the idea). Check out the instructions in the OP and it walks you right through it.
If you still want to use a zip Crawrj has the fh23 rom here

Just redownloaded it from a different mirror, still having the same problem.
Im really running out of ideas for you... i have ran into same kinda problems but easy got around it.
You do have odin 307+ and updated S3 drivers?
If you have another data, could try that.
You could try different usb port.
I always reboot computer befor i flash.
i really hope that helps you
Just follow the root guide for our phones in the stickies.... Why a Roger rom?

I would suggest to try the method in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426
Also, make sure you are using the usb cable that came with the phone, as it has an 11 pin connector instead of the 5 pin. Hope this helps.

If you've got the FAIL message is probably because your phone is the i9082 and not the i9082l.

Thanks! It didn't work because my phone is the i9080l, the one without dual sim.
How can I find some modem file for i9080l instead of i9082l? I think if I can find it my phone should work.

I am sure someone can help you with that or tell you the procedure how to extract modem file.
Instead of giving your post just "[Q]" as the title, if you write a few words briefing your problem, you might get more replies.
"[Q]" makes no sense to anyone. Please change the title of this thread.

I was trying to install viper4android and it got out of hand. i decided to factory reset then restore a backup i had made earlier, when i try to do this it says it failed and then It asks me if i want to install supersu but i already have it installed so i put no. Also when i try to reboot it says Set Warranty Bit: kernel on the top right. What can i do? everytime i try to reboot it gets stuck there. Also on a possibly unrelated note the backup was compressed when i made it, do i need to decompress the file?

This will work. Download the stock tar from: http://www.shabbypenguin.com/getdownload.php?file=Sprint_Note_4-trltespr/Stock-NIE/N910PVPU1ANIE_N910PSPT1ANIE_SPR.zip
Get into download mode and use odin. You will be fine.
Thanks guys, this is my first Samsung phone it is very different from htc phones. So once the file is done downloading do i put the file in the AP slot and flash via odin?
Also will i need root again?

Yes, you will need to root again. Once you flash, you will be back stock as if you just got from store.
Without looking, Im pretty sure its AP.

Should be good to go. Just put in download mode (as looneytunes said earlier), connect device as well as inserting tar file in correct slot. Should work just fine. Please post back with results. Just want to make sure your good.

It's kinda really hard to permanently brick these phones. As long as you can get to download mode you can usually get back with odin.
HI all,
Need your help! I tried all possible activities and still cannot get over the AT&T logo on my S9. Soft reset did not help. Wiping off master reset neither. I simply cannot get to the safe mode.
Any idea what else I can try?
