Guys
My mobile model is SM-N750 (Indian edition).
I have successfully flashed stock firmware thru ODIN earlier. Recently I changed my firmware to Pakistan from Sammobile.
Now I like to go back to Indian firmware, however it is failing again & again. I am though successfully able to flash Pakistan firmware again.
Phone is working properly but cant go back to Indian firmware.
Please check.
I know how to flash in ODIN. This is something diff.
1- Try another source of odin, same version but another source
2- Try flashing the firmware more than once, it will work in one of them
3- Try different firmware and see if it worker, then the problem is with the firmware
4- Make sure the files are for your mobile version
Thanks for your reply.
I have tried 3 firmware files. No luck.
I think I guess what is the issue. Pak firmware version is higher than Indian firmware version. So the bootloader has been changed. That is the reason it is not allowing to install a lower bootloader firmware.
I hope once sammobile will have KK firmware downloadable I would be able to flash that.
I am successfully able to flash Indian Kitkat ROM from Sammobile.
So the point to be noted...You can not go back to old firmware once you upgraded to new one.

I bought N7100 in China, but it does not support all google services, even I have problem to log into samsung account, can not instal another language than Chinese, Korean and English.
Originally it was in 4.1.1.
I downloaded several stock firmwares 4.1.2 from sammobile, but it does want to go with odin. (phone goes in the mode informing about unsucessfull update).
Fortunatelly I flashed it with chinese 4.1.2 firmware, but now I am again at the beginning, and what is more it shows still 4.1.1 version in settings>about.
Anyone can help what to do to change software version for my language?
(I have read a lot what I found in google, I tried several times with odin and different files for different european regions - and nothing)
The Chinese phones have a locked bootloader so I have heard. Unless you unlock it, no amount of Odin flashing will work.
Beamed from Jupiter on my Galaxy Note II
any idea how to solve this?
I saw some post about verizon note2 unblocking but I do not know if possible to follow with chinese version, and what is more it looks quite complicated..
SOLUTION:
check here
The problem with these chinese phones is the modified bootloader, so you can't install other firmwares then chinese with odin.
The solution is: flash the phone with a chinese firmware or CWM recovery
When the phone is restored you need first to root the phone via odin and then install mobile odin. With mobile odin you can install a new firmware. The thing is, mobile odin doesn't touch the bootloader so it does also work with your chinese phones.

Hi. I have posted a complete step by step instructions as how to flash India Android 4.3 firmware on Chinese N7100. Just search for it and follow the steps. You will be successful.

I succesfully rooted and installed customed firmware last year when I got my n7100 from China. I used Odin but do not remember how I did it. Then I can flash any rom. However, when I try to upgrade to 4.3 custom rom recently, almost all 4.3 romance require flashing a Wi-Fi fix by Odin. I can install most roms smoothly. But Wi-Fi won't work. And when I flash the Wi-Fi fix by Odin, always fail, no matter whose Wi-Fi fix package and which version of Odin. Not sure if this is boot loader issue, just remember I saw error message about boot loader. And usually when I flash rom, I can see "cannot find boot loader, skipped". Now I cannot use any 4.3 romance as I cannot make Wi-Fi work.

Read my quoted text again: The problem with these chinese phones is the modified bootloader, so you can't install other firmwares then chinese with odin.
Install the chinese 4.3 from sammobile and then the bootlader is up to date and ready for ROMs.
is there anyway to change chinese bootloader

If your phone is not locked on any carrier you can just download and flash the openline/unlocked that is available in your country..
use ODIN to flash the latest firmware.

Flashing is a risky procedure. Don't do it unless absolutely necessary.
I recommend you to use OTA update to upgrade to 4.3 and then to 4.4.2. It is safe and smooth. You don't lose anything.

Ok, A long story:
Whenever I try to flash a lollipop ROM I get an unknown IMEI..
I solve this by flashing a stock 4.4.2 (I get the right IMEI but not registered in network) I solve this by flashing a patched modem and everything is fine..
But when I try to flash a lollipop ROM I still get an unknown IMEI again..
Also, I have efs backup, When I restore efs, Nothing happen.. IMEI is still unknown..
So, I want to try lollipop ROMs (like, ValidusLP ROM for example).. How to solve this problem?? Is there like a patched modem for lillipop??
Thanks in advance for anyone who will try to help.
Try some other lollipop ROM and see if issue solves

Tried both TWRP and Philiz touch recoveries, Both latest versions...
I flash the recovery using ODIN, Then flash the ROM using the recovery.
Exactly the same issue.
1) Was on stock Kit Kat 4.4.2 2 days back. Connected to Kies and got the update for Lollipop.Update the phone in few hours but no IMEI,nothing.
2)Downloaded the latest Stock Lollipop from SamMobile and flashed this using Odin and same issue.
3) Flashed the Kit Kat 4.4.2 and everything is fine with modem restored and IMEI visible.
4) Downloaded using OTA on stock 4..4.2 still same issue and IMEI blanks out.
I am sure there is some problem with this Update and waiting for a stable version.

On another note : Lollipop looks gorgeous though and has a good interface. Want to stick to stock as heavily use Spen features.
Please let me know if there is a modem that could be flashed with Odin to Stock lollipop ROM ? Else will have to go back to Kit Kat.
Thanks

I already went back to 4.4.2
Ok fixed this issue.
Just download the previous ROM for Kitkat for your region model. Extract the Tar file and then what ever is the extracted file again open it using WinRar. Get the modem.bin out of it.
Once you have loaded lollipop: Open Odin again and flash the modem.bin from previous rom using Odin. Got to work for india .
Yey I am on lollipop.

----------------------------------------------------------EDIT------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you! I extracted the modem.bin file from latest official ROM for my country and flashed it via ODIN
Now all works perfectly!!! Thank you very much!!!
Hi everyone,
I know this problem is well known and solved many times already, but I'm not being able to solve it by myself. This is why I'm posting this thread as a last resort to try and get some help, just in case i missed something..
My phone is currently with unknown baseband and IMEI on stock 4.4.2 flashed via kies recovery. If I try to flash any 4.4.4 port ROM the phone locks up seconds after boot, it will only work with stock rom. I already tried a few modems i found on another threads but no success.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

from sammobile, download newest firmware for your region and unpack it from stock rom and then pack it with 7zip to tar file and flash it with Odin.
you need sboot and modem

Isn't that a bit pointless? Maybe I'm missing the point, but if I already have flashed latest firmwares from both sammobile and kies, it kind of makes the point that modem and bootloader files from sammobile don't solve the problem, right?
Thanks.

Well truly doesnt seem pointless
I got my baseband resolved (Previously showed 'Unknown') by flashing pure stock rom (got from SamMobile) THROUGH ODIN so might be there is a point.
Try stock rom flashing from odin as according to me stock rom has everything in it radio(Baseband),boot(efs), system, etc etc
The unknown baseband and imei can be due to a modem and bootloader mismatch.
To confirm the bootloader and modem on the phone, install the Samsung Phone Info app from the play store to confirm the version.
I have the Sm-t800 (wifi) Tab s 10.5 and want to update it but I've been out of the game for a while.
I am currently running 4.4.2 IronRom v1.9.7 t800.. so you know its been a minute since I updated. I am kinda in a bind on how to flash the latest stock firmware (what are we actually on now) and to stick with stock or something AOSP. I literally use the device 99% to watch local storage movies or Netflix so that is what i need functional.
Thanks for the help in advance.
I flashed from a rooted stock kitkat to the latest stock lollipop using odin, getting ready for MM if we ever get it.
I get my stock firmware from SamMobile it downloads fast enough for me, you need to register.

EDIT: A couple of questions if anybody can help
1: I flashed from stock lollipop back to stock kitkat using odin, my T800 was stuck on the Samsung logo and would not go past it, I booted to recovery and flashed lollipop and everything was fine and my T800 booted and setup fine.
2: How can i force a power-down from the Samsung logo, all i can do is reboot or get into recovery, I have done this before but i cannot remember the buttons to hold.

Thanks for the info.. I found the sammobile site but I was confused on which firmware (country mainly) to use since there wasn't specifically a US file. I was thinking "cellular south"?
I am using an Wifi only 10.5" so my firmware choice is easy.
It might be an idea to install TWRP first so you can backup your current rom in case you have a problem.

Your right, where are the USA roms? I downloaded the UK v5.0.2 lollipop from the link below.
Hopefully somebody can point you to the correct US rom, you need a different rom for exynos vs snapdragon cpu, though i think only the cell version has the snapdragon.
When i flash the stock lollipop, TWRP was gone and ROOT as well, ready for MM.

Well I flashed the stock UK lollipop v5.0.2 from SamMobile and i got an small fix firmware update from Samsung so updates are working for me, so i expect if you flash your correct firmware for your tab you will get them too.

Yes to both questions. As long you're 100% stock, you'll be able to received OTA updates.
