ok so i have verizon galaxy nexus rooted and unlocked bootloader i tried flashing jelly bean rom and it is stuck in boot screen on my phone...i downloaded odin and the drives phone connects and all is good with that but i downloaded the factory image from android developers imm76k tar file and i unzipped it to a folder like im suppose to but when i search for the file with odin the tar file doesnt show up in the folder i put it in or in any folder i move it to...i tried doing it right from the zip file but that didnt work either please help me out...
either and idea to try or a link to another tar or rar file that odin will see
someone said windows can read ext. so that may be why it wont reconize the file as a tar even tho it ends in .tar but i dont know how to make it so it can read ext
Don't use odin. Use fastboot. Follow this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895

So I was looking at this you tube video here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTcslgE0RK4 and everything seems relatively easy except I go to dl the firmware Here:http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/ for my friends note 2 and I don't see a dl for USA or anything close to it. My question is which firmware do I dl? Thanks in advance!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1968136
Just to clarify, I can use the aforementioned info in the link to un root the galaxy note II?
I "believe" that its the stock ROM untouched, no root no busy box no custom boot loader.
It will put your Note 2 back to the way it was when you first got it.
* If your uncertain then PM the OP of the post for confirmation.

I followed the instructions in the link you had and when i go into odin and click pda it goes to the folder i downloaded the stock tar(which by the way is a zip folder called samsung updates which i thought was weird) but i dont see a stock tar and on my pc it wont let me extract the zip file....
GSIII Rooted Stock #SPURNATION
Inside the the zip file you downloaded should be a file that ends in .tar or .tar.md5 that is used in Odin.
If your not sure what you are doing you may want to brush up on the process first.

Best to flash the official stock rom since you don't have much info on what was flashed on this note 2 before you bought it.
If you're interested in stock kitkat rom then get it from here Here extract the zip file you'll find the .tar.md5 file place it in the pda/ap option in odin ,put your phone into download mode ,connect it to odin ,make sure you've installed all the samsung drivers and such and then hit start and let odin do it's job should take around 25 mins or so.Good luck.

ok, thank you, i will try it and reply.
Most (not all) of the time, you can just pull the battery out while the phone is trying to load and stuck at the screen. Sometimes this fixes bootlop and non-booting issues. If it does not, then you'll want to follow the procedure above and flash another ROM accordingly.

This just isn't true, sorry.
Most of the time boot issues are rom/kernel/data issues. So wiping data, aflashing roms or flashing a kernels are the most common fixes.
Typically the first two.
i recently got bootloop because of an app delayed lock.
fixed by using aroma file manager to delete 2 files
/data/system/locksettings.db
/data/system/locksettings.db-shm

Hey guys, I know a lot of us has been stuck with paper weights since we messed up flashing our phones thinking the L710 and L710t were the same... sooo, if you lost your imei and baseband unkown and no network and no audio and all these issues and just want to go back to stock.. you've come to the right place.
Remember this is for the sprint sph l710T .... note the T for triband lol
Step 1. Download Odin (search google)
Step 2. .tar file from here (https://mega.co.nz/#!cBBDEBpJ!t5IAcCaMg2w7GDI0zhhmZw0e7jh0Uv0v4gJpsH8gb6o)
put this in to odin in the pda section (note: if the file gives an md5 mismatch of some sort, remove (.md5) from the extension to leave the .tar)
step 3. put your phone in download mode... flash that shiiiiii, be patient and profit!
youre very welcome
BIIIGGGGG THANKS TO THESE GUYS FROM ANDROID FORUMS
Kdude63 for the link
the_dumbest_noob for actually pulling the .tar for kies to save our behinds!
yep i can verify i had to get this version cause the charging port on my phone died and according to the site it came from it should work across the board with Sprint, Boost, and Virgin Sph-L710T
I made a flashable zip that De-Odex the stock rom https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95832962473400340 check it out if you want but read the description
Great news, thanks to all who made this happen!
I'm a novice at this, If I flash this .tar my phone will no longer be rooted, correct?

if you flash the stock tar that is provided it will erase your entire phone except for the external storage and then replace it all with whats inside of it including your recovery

I see, thanks! What then would be the benefit of flashing the deodex zip posted above? Will that allow me to uninstall bloatware? What's the purpose?

De-Odex helps for themeing and swapping out system apps that aren't from Google.....like if you want a updated Samsung app like the music player for instance

Copy that. Out of curiosity, it appears most people need this .tar because they lost their baseband / modems after installing a different rom. Wouldn't it be easier to just flash the L710T NF4 modem firmware? I downloaded it and was going to try it with a few roms that were messing with my baseband. Thoughts?

that file basically just puts the right files in on your SD card which then can be used in PhilZ via custom restore i believe....let me check into that
Will this work for SPH-L710T on Virgin Mobile?
Because this happened to my friend on her's: http://androidforums.com/threads/sph-710t-deleted-google-play-services.887991/
TLR=She deleted Google Play Services and her phone is all kinds of screwed up, factory reset didn't help the phone refresh the system file on its own, so either I need the stock .tar OR someone to upload me their Google Play Services system app (my Stratosphere II's usually works once but I think Google Play tries to update it and it fails and then all the problems start again)

So her phone wouldn't get screwed up with any kind of modem/network setting incompatibility because she's a Virgin Mobile subscriber and this was pulled from a Sprint L710T would it?

correct it won't get screwed up
the one custom rom that will boot without the need for stock kernel is Conquest Singularity link https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=15185 currently im running the Conquest-Singularity-10-beta9-Full.zip with the Conquest-Singularity-10-b10-update.zip everything seems to work fine except for the rotation but someone over at android forums says Conquest-Singularity-9-Full.zip by it self works including rotation he never mentioned the Conquest-Singularity-9.5-Update.zip so that's basically it to figure out how to install this amazing rom go to the Closed OP here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2774902

or the AP slot for Odin 3.09+
(you might want to add that to the OP)
THANK YOU, her phone is back to normal and it even kept her model intact!
And now I backed up her phone (Titanium and Nandroid) right this time (to SD not internal)
flash this kernel after you flash Conquest so rotation gets fixed https://www.dropbox.com/sh/5y5w6clj...T747-TW-KK-4.4-ATT-05-13-2014 kernel.zip?dl=0
You sir, have fixed my phone.
THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH! It actually worked! After 2 weeks of searching, this thing actually worked! I will definitely recommend this page to anyone who has the same problem.

Do you still have this TAR available? The mega.co.nz link says the file is not available. I am in this exact same predicament where I thought this phone was the same as the L710 and now... I can't get anything I try to work. Always stuck in a boot-loop and I've tried a couple ROMs. I also can't seem to find a Stock ROM anywhere!

I hate bumping an old thread, but in this case, I'm in the same predicament after flashing an OS and not having a way to update the PRL and such. The L710T TAR would be greatly appreciated.
hi,
i have googled a bit , but apart from the Odin-flashable tar.md5 file , i was unable to find a proper .zip file to use.
i am still trying to find a .zip file because even using the adb commands (both from recovery and from normal mode), the Stock ROM files pulled out is still missing of some parts, and they don't allow me to proceed to develop a MIUI ROM for the N7505 :crying:
FEEL. the same sammy Galaxy S4 .everything all lined up and still hav lock out.OMG.
