Hello,
For a couple of days I've been trying to flash CWM in my device. I have search for every single tutorial with no luck. The problem I'm having is that when I try to boot in to CWM recovery I get stocked in a bootloop. I already tried flashing with Odin, through the app itself, flashing the Philz version of it and I still fall into the bootloop.
Device model: SM-N900T
Android version: 4.4.2
Baseband version: N900TUVUCNB4
If anybody can point me to the right direction, I will greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Why not give TWRP a try, it works great for everyone.
Here is the latest version for the N900T Tmobile device:

Make sure you have ROOT and then flash this using ODIN.
Good luck!

I'm fairly new to flashing on this phone. Had it rooted and running PA 4.2 for a while then wanted to try something else. I can get into recovery and restore back to what appears to be stock with recovery access. From there I've tried flashing CM 10.2, PA 4.2 & 4.3 and slimbean, I get to their animated splash logo boot screen and it just hangs there. Any tips?
Current Stats:
Android: 2.3.6
Baseband: T989UVMC6
Kernel: 2.6.35.11
Build: Gingerbread.UVKL1
ClockworkMod Recovery: v5.0.2.7
Thanks much!

Lost Root
I found that I somehow lost my root. I have several root zip files on my device, so I went in to recovery and attempted to flash one of them to gain root. two of the three failed (flash aborted). The third was successful, and I now have superuser in the app drawer. When I open Titanium backup it displays the text "asking for root rights" but it just hangs there.
Here's what I'm wanting to do... perform a complete wipe of the phone and start over, do I odin back to stock and re-root? I want to be able to flash SlimBean 4.3 with minimal slim gapps. So my question is what method do I use to get there, which recovery do I use?
Thanks ahead for any help you can offer.

Use Odin to flash to stock 4.1.2 UVMC6.
To flash a 4.3 ROM you will need the newest CWM or TWRP 2.6.1.0 and newer.
Odin flashable TWRP can be found here
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/hercules
2.6.1.0 is the version I recommend.
Thanks meekrawb!
Okay that makes sense. I wasn't getting anywhere so I rest the phone back to bone stock using the instructions in this thread.
So now I'm totally stock & un-rooted; Android: 2.3.6 Baseband: T989UVKL1 Kernel: 2.6.35.11 Build: Gingerbread.UVKL1
What's the proper way to get to
stock 4.1.2 UVMC6

I'm no longer rooted at the moment. I've looked around and found this thread but I would need to be rooted first.
Once I get there I should be able to get TWRP 2.6.1.0 using the link provided in the previous post (thank you).

Odin flash this file that mikeyman made to make sure you have the newest firmware:
https://db.tt/sgyIphAD
Then Odin the TWRP tar.
After that, you can flash your ROM and gapps. No need to root first.

I downloaded the file and flashed via odin (in PDA right??)... Odin says: MD5 hash value is invalid. What do now?
Thanks ahead

I forgot you probably need to delete the mikeyman77_ from the front of the file. If that still doesn't work you can download the whole firmware from here

Excellent that worked perfect! I'm working on getting the ROM flashed.
thanks so much for all your help
Success!
Thank you so much for your help. I am now enjoying my first 4.3 rom (SlimBean)!

your firmware is really really old. try upgrading to latest jellybean. and if you cant flash through your phone try flashing through odin:good:
I've been enjoying my device running slim bean 4.3. However I don't have root access which is required for using titanium back up or the like. Can I get root access now without wiping all my data, would I have to re-flash the ROM? And what's the best way to go about it?
Thanks ahead!

There is a way to switch it on in settings somewhere but I'm not sure where because I use SuperSU. Just flash this in recovery

Hello all.
Hopeing i can get some help with my old telus t989d. I recently upgraded to an S5 and am going to give my phone to a friend. problem is that i rooted the device right after i got it and havent touched or updated anything in years. It is still on the very first firmware that it came with Android version: 2.3.5 kernel: 2.6.35.11.
My first question is do i need to update the recovery it is currently running CWM v5.0.2.6 and an extreamly old version of superuser.
Second question is can i do a factory wipe and flash a new ROM like CyanogenMod 11.0 or do i need to update the stock firmware first.
thats all i can think of right now. thanks in advance for any help
Odin flash the 4.1.2 firmware.
Odin flash CWM 6.0.4.4 or newer( or TWRP 2.6.1.0 or newer).
You shouldn't have any problem installing CM11 after you do those things.
Unless your friend is into rooting and what not, I'd definitely give it to him with stock 4.1.2 installed.
Otherwise there will always be some glitches.
Thanks all for the info. Tryed to go back to stock unrooted. That worked fine but when I Tryed to update through keys I made a brick. Oh well

Today i flashed CM 11 with CWM and after rebooting the baseband and IMEI were gone. I tried to flash the baseband but nothing happened. I then tried to flash the stock rom touchwiz through ODIN and it failed. Now the phone reboots asking to connect to KIES and do a recovery which i can't perform.
Any clues about?
Thank you in advance,
Davide

Thanks for the prompt reply. The Rom I flashed is the 4.4.2 snapshot.
In the meantime i flashed this pit file from this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2137008
and now the CYM is back and working but still no baseband.
Is there any way i can reinstall the stock rom ? is the partition a problem?
I dont have a backup of the EFS folder (I made it once but i cant find it)
EDIT: CWM is installed and working
is your IMEI Same..?
i assume there are several reasons, it can be a simple fix by installing a stock 4.4 KK which will eliminate the problem you are facing, iin past week, i done alot of experiences on my bricked note 2, specially the failed PIT flashed, i tried couple of them but at the end the only thing turned the phone in right direction was stock KITKAT
you can find that in the the post i posted earlier.
i am 100% sure you will get your phone back to life.
also remember to when you are done flashing go to stock recovery and wipe data and cache. It is needed after re-partiton to form the partitions correctly
edit: best keep a nand of your current rom as well
4.4.2

Exactly. Flashing the official stock rom based on kitkat 4.4.2 (which has been released few days ago I believe) solved the problem. I'll try to flash CM tomorrow (tonight get.cm is not reachable and can't download the android app).
Thank you!

Just wanted to ask you something. I installed the Nordic version of the latest Android update which is at the moment the only one available and I have the impression that the voice quality is not that good. I was wondering if this may depend on the baseband version installed on this one. I'm from Italy and kitkat 4.4 is still not available in my country. Flashing a different baseband may change the situation? If so, Is there a baseband more compatible with this touchwiz version and the Italian telco providers?
Thank you again,
Davide

I would like to install a 4.4 rom with the latest twrp recovery or the newest popular custom recovery that is most compatible with the roms for our device. I know I might have to upgrade a couple things in order to get to that point. Can someone please help me out here. I just need the newest rooting process available for rooting and flashing the recovery. Ive used odin before and im pretty sure thats how I do most of the beginng phases before actually flashing off sd with custom recovery...ANYONE???
Can someone please delete this thread as I dont know how or I dont have permissions to do so

Trying to install CM11, but so far I keep getting either a "Status 7" or aborted error message. I have tried many of the fixes, but so far no luck.. I think I created this issue when I upgraded to 4.4.2. I would be happy to go back to a stock version and then CM11, but I have not been able to do that either. Here is my current phone details:

I'm currently using philz_touch_6.15.4-d2att and have also tried current versions of CWM and Twrp with the same results. CM11 and CM10.2 were both tried as well as editing the updater-script in the Cm11 zip file and removing the "assert checks".

6.15.4 is too old to flash kk roms. Status 7 errors can be caused by an outdated recovery.
Try the latest fir the d2lte from here: https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/d2lte/

I did try the latest CWM and Twrp with the same results. I flashed AOKP just fine. Something strange about my phone. Maybe it has something to do with me replacing my motherboard recently? Relaced my Sgh-T999 with the Sgh-i747???
Anyways, it's back up and running
Thanks,
