[Guide] [Regain 100% Warranty From CWM] Grand i9082 (Without Odin)

Hi All,
I just wanted to come back to complete 100% warranty from my current rom using CWM flashable zip file. Even after reading so many forums, I couldn't find an all-in-one thread which contains a guide to regain 100% warranty including reset the custom ROM flash counter to 0 and stock recovery. I hope you find this handy.
We have so many threads to reset the custom ROM flash counter to 0, but it is also very much necessary to have the Stock Samsung Recovery to claim your warranty. Although you still can enjoy the full root access but if you want to unroot then you can simply use Superuser app settings menu.
Because we need to claim warranty when there is some major issue in the handset or our system has got corrupted and we cant reboot anymore. Then we can go to CWM and flash any rom but to go to service center we need to remove CWM.

Hey what about device status? after doing this method it will be custom or official? nd can we get update from software update?

another very important item for warranty is your original CSC. Example if you flash Russian 4.2.2 firmware your CSC becomes SER. You have to be sure that this is also changed when you go back to stock firmware OF YOUR REGION example India will be INU. Connect your grand to kies and check for the correct CSC before going to service to claim warranty,
I would also like to add that before flashing anything on your device to check and note your original CSC. Believe me this is most of the time checked by the service staff....

Hi bro,
there are options for both in Triangle away... for Odin mode status and for settings menu... if you have any issue or you are not getting the official status then PM me ....

I read and reread your instructions but there is nothing saying how to get back to stock unrooted rom without using odin as mentioned on the title.Please clarify.

Easy way....
----------------------------------------------------
1.Reset bin counter with triangle away
2.swichoff ur device
3.boot into Odin mode
4.flash stock rom of ur region with Odin
5.boot into stock recovery
6.wipe data/factory reset...wipe cache...wipe dalvik cache...
7.reboot...
......If u want to change CSC....

Right. That procedure is same as youtube cursed4eva method.
I believe there is no way to get back to stock without using odin more so if on 4.2.2

can I root the phone & then flash this stock recovery again to receive system updates & still keep root privileges?

Works with I9082L version ? Thanks !

Nice One :fingers-crossed:

does this method works with 4.2.2?

I believe even Xposed works...

bro.when i install stock recovery it shows installation aborted.what to do now
reply asap.!!!

It doesn't works with 4.2.2

I am wanting to keep my phone as standard as I can while been able to have root.
I've been reading about the new security crap they have added (knox)
I was wondering if I will have any problems keeping my phone in warranty with root?
previously, I had root without the phone knowing (or at least showing) that it was rooted, can that still be achieved?

Hi, I have figured out that the wifi problem is due to me using mobile odin to upgrade and so, I am still on my old bootloader.
noob question 1st.
how do I find out what boot loader I'm currently using?
2nd question
Can I flash the Dr ketan patch using mobile odin?

1 - Go to download mode, if you see "Knox warranty: 0x0" or any other number different than 0 then you have new bootloader.
2- Yes, you can. I used it too and usually works.

Broken Bluetooth pairing, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2589309
Go outside of your home where is no known WiFi network and no known/active Bluetooth device. Switch on Bluetooth and then remove all the pairing you have in the Bluetooth config.
No need to flash anything.

Right, just checked my bootloader and download mode.
it's reverted back to the default one but it has no numbers other than in download mode, it tells me I have a custom binary and a count of 1.
before I flash the patch. The version I have on my phone is
n7100xxuemj9 not j5. Will the Dr's wifi patch still work, or could I brick my phone?
also, since I am going to use mobile I odin to do it, which option should I use?
Thank you once again, I just don't want to brick my phone.

The fix shouldn't brick your device by any means. It should work as long as you use a 4.3 rom based on new bootloader.
Choose the same as normal or let mobile odin decide by clicking on "add zip to flash"
Or just flash Devils Kernel, autofixes wifi.

3. No, the device does not support a simcard.
4. The device is WiFi only and is not locked. Phones in the US are locked to specific carriers. To unlock the phone means to allow the phone to work on any carrier.

All of my posted recoveries work fine. You didn't follow the directions close enough. Make sure you flash the universal root.zip once you get the recovery working. If not, it will re-install the stock recovery automatically.

Please explain how you are trying to add TWRP or CWM to your device. Do not leave out any details. This what we can see if you are missing a step. It should be a very simple process if the steps are followed correctly (as mentioned above). So please explain how you are doing it and what tools you are using.
Thanks

I think step 7 is where you might be going wrong. Again, I THINK, I could be mistaken. But I would say start the tablet in normal mode before attempting to go into recovery. After the tablet starts, go ahead and shut it down. Then try and go into recovery mode.
Also, did you start Odin as an administrator? It sounds like you are OK in that regard as you got it going and loading. But if you are still having problems then try executing Odin as administrator.
Which .tar file are you loading? Is it one of the recovery files such as TWRP or CWM?
The only other thing might be the version of recovery you are trying to load. Make sure it works with your tab and firmware. I am sure you have already checked that, but just in case you forgot.

In your number 7, you should be holding volume up to get into recovery. When you see the Tab 3 logo, release the power button but continue holding home and volume up until you get into recovery.

the first thing is when i press the power button to lock my note 2 and try to open it again i find no response at all and the only way is to remove the battery and re turn it on again and try not to press the lock button as if i do so my mobile gives me no response and the screen doesn't turn on !
the second matter i noticed that when the start up i found the bluetooth icon trying to turn to green like i'm turning the bluetooth on but a few seconds it didn't turn on even i try to turn it ! the bluetooth doesn't work at all !
the third thing when i recieve a call that turn on the proximty sensor automatically if i touch the sensor the screen go black but i lose the control and give me no response at all and i have to remove the battery and turn it on again !
the things i noticed when i flashed the galaxy star rom with mobile odin that it has partion called param and the note to doesn't have it with its rom but have partion called modem which i didn't found in the galaxy star rom !
i need help please how i delete things that caused that conflict .. i tried to reflash the stock rom of my note with odin on my lap top but nothig changed and it hanging and the screen freezes with no control at all and that happened when i try to use a custom rom and flash it through the recovery .. please help urgently
sorry for my bad english

Two options I see:
1. Try to restore your device using Kies3
2. Flash newest firmware (get it from sammobile) for your region using PC-Odin.

Putting "need help urgently please :'(" does not help you in any way, in fact it makes it more likely that people will simply ignore the topic. Topic titles need to be descriptive, not generic non-descriptive.
Your problem is that like many newbies you cant be bothered to do research, read and learn before messing around with your device.
You should boot into download mode and flash a stock rom. Preferably a older one that doesn't have knox. Then flash a stock rom(without knox) in recovery mode. All the info you need is here on forum.

i forgot to tell that one of the things changed that my mobile lost the usb support in the normal mode as there is no change when i connect it to my pc except it charges only but it works in the download mode and when i reflash the stock rom v 4.3 the screen freezes after a few seconds of turning it on and i have to remove the battery .. do you think that flashing the 4.4.2 sthock rom will make a change ? as the solution of kies isn't possible due to the lack of usb support !
is there a way to format the sectors that the pation " param " which flashed by the sumsung star dous stock rom is in it and make that conflict to delete that ??

What was your last stock rom on your device before messing up?
I do absolutely not agree with those horror tales about knox, most people don't use and easily get rid of.
Do you remember your last bootloader? MK4 or above? Then don't take any risk by flashing 4.3 firmware and go straight ahead to 4.4.2.
It will be the safest way to get a working device again.

So you can also try the NA1 firmware, but nothing beneath that. NA1 is a knox enabled BL, so whatever you flash successfully will have Knox in it.
DON'T TICK REPARTITION!

OK, I see. Try a wipe from stock recovery, wipe all possible.
Another option: Kies!
I know, you said not recognized but you must get it to work. Uninstall all drivers from PC an re-install drivers until Kies can restore your device.
Very last option: Find a Samsung repair near to you.

I know, you said not recognized but you must get it to work. Uninstall all drivers from PC an re-install drivers until Kies can restore your device.
Very last option: Find a Samsung repair near to you.

As you mentioned you already have been on NA1 firmware and as it seems you have flashed latest 4.4.2 with "a kind of success" I find it hope- and useless to even try this rescue rom. Bootloader is the reason why you can't successfully flash. NO DOWNGRADE POSSIBLE.

Can you illustrate your words ? For kies it's unpossible to connect my mobile to any pc the drivers works perfectly for any similarphone the fault is in my mobile not the driver and for sumsung care it will be high cost as the warranty ended ! And I wipe every thing possible through the stock recovery but noyhing changed !

I am beginning to lose my patience cause you don't follow my advice or even don't consider that I am right.
Look into system on your PC if there is an unknown device.
Whenever hardware is connected to PC Windows starts to search for drivers.
It doesn't matter that other devices are recognized correctly.
Wipe all Samsung drivers and re-install. Even re-install Kies too.
Start Kies and try restoration, maybe it will fail, but try. AND with current drivers you are supposed to fail.
At last: Try to find a friend with knowledge who can help you at your home or his.

Root Samsung Galaxy Folder (SM-G150NS) 5.1.1 ?

Hello,
I hope someone can help me.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Folder (SM-G150NS, SM-G150N0):
- Android Lollipop 5.1.1
- OEM Unlock available via Developer settings.
- Model : SM-G150NS
- Build version : LMY47X.G150NSKSU1APK3
- I have access to Odin flashable firmware (via Sammobile)
This phone is almost 3 years old and yet I have not found any information about root solution for this phone.
While I am really skeptical about "one click root" solutions, I have tried KingoRoot but with no luck (displayed a bunch of popup, adverts and got stuck at 90%).
I have not tried OneClickRoot or KingRoot, if someone can confirm if safe. I will give a try.
This device seem pretty "standard" to me, I mean there is a lot of Samsung phone running 5.1.1 that can be rooted easily. I guess this one can also be...
The device is vulnerable to Dirty Cow vuln but it seems like we can't really do anything from there...
I saw this chinese website that have Odin rooted package : [Can't post it as I am new user]. But payment is needed. Looks like a scam to me
Has someone have any idea how I can root this device ? I will be very grateful for any help I can receive.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers :highfive:
Edit: I will seriously buy you a beer if you can help me with this...

Download this custom recovery http://ge.tt/4cO5xGj2
Flash the custom recovery, get the 2.78 SR1 Supersu zip file, copy it to the phone and install it from custom recovery.

Hi gsmDabbler,
Great find! Successfully TWRP and rooted using your method :highfive:
Thanks very much :good:
For the record, here is the steps I have done :
TWRP Install :
1) Download custom recovery linked above (unofficial_twrp_3.0.2-r6_novel3gskt(G150NS).tar).
2) Turn off your phone and start it in "Download Mode".
3) Open ODIN, click 'AP' and select the recovery tar file downloaded previously.
4) Click 'Start' and you are done.
Root :
1) Dowload latest supersu.zip version (currently SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.zip).
2) Copy it to your phone memory.
3) Launch TWRP and install zip.
Edit: Beer sent as promised

Would this also work for the Samsung Galaxy Folder SM-G150NK? Just want to make sure I don't mess up my phone just because it has a different radio in it.

I want to buy the Samsung Galaxy Folder SM-G150N0 off eBay. But I want to root it and unlock bootloader so I can flash a custom ROM or Android Go 8.1.0. So if I buy it, can I send it to you and have you do what I need done? This is my email: [email protected]. Send me a message.
Edit: I will buy the beer.

This file is a good replacement to an SuperSU file.
The actions should be done are:
- Burn (With Odin software) TWRP on the phone after logging in download mode,
Entrance to recovery TWRP >> Install >>Find the attachment, and just install it ..
Then install an app magisk, so you can manage the root
