I'm stuck in TWRP - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

checked out the newest post on galaxynote2root.com about turning my note 2 into a S5/Note3 hybrid.
FOllowed the directions telling me to flash the Verizon version to my Sprint device but it failed. Normally no big deal but like an idiot I did not back up and I did not have another ROM to fall back on.
I have a card reader adapter that I have attempted to put other random roms onto and flash through TWRP but EVERYTHING fails and I can't figure out why. SOmebody please help me out here

......
Update: I've been able to flash the Illusion Rom with no Fail message but it just boots to the Samsung Galaxy Splash and doesn't move like it's loading the greatest cut scene ever. So yea still stuck if anybody could help out

Ok I can most likely help but I need more information. Give me a link to the thread you followed and the rom you flashed. Please send it in a PM so others wont see it and try to do the same thing.
Another user recently posted a video link to something claiming the same thing in one of my rom threads. I have ported over a Verizon rom to sprint and it is not a simple thinbg to do. Wish you would have seen this in my thread before you tried it. Hopefully I can get you up and running again.

I have no clue why he would claim it to work. I googled it and in the thread he is referring to the rom I ported over from verizon. It will not work as he states. You can try it of you want but I am telling you the person who posted it is wrong.

I went to that forum and read everything along with the comments. Looks like they really have no clue what they are doing. The users who did not mess up their device (non sprint users) do not have working wifi because they do not have the proper information. There are specific files on each device that is needed and they were not told to change them. I left a mostly nice comment about their steps for sprint.

Sorry guys I was already heading to bed when you guys started messaging back. I appreciate you guys taking the time out to help me with my problem. jlmancuso I've sent you that PM with hopefully all the information you need and requested.

Update: I have just attempted to Flash the stock firmware from samsung-updates.com through ODIN and I am unfortunately still getting no further than the Samsung Galaxy Note II splash and of course I've also lost TWRP
Final Update: After flashing the stock firmware back to my phone I went into the basic recovery mode that it has and did a factory reset yet again and apparently that did it and my phone is back to it's normal self.
Thanks for your help guys ... kinda lol

don't even need to wait for it to install successfully. Sometimes a "fail" is actually a success, so if you're having problems of it flashing successfully then you should check your app drawer.. its probably in there already.

Also I'm pretty sure you flashed a rom for a different phone because the AOKPs for our phone are named something like aokp-hercules-selfkang_620 (the numbers at the end vary)
Edit: yeah you definitely flashed for the wrong phone. Just because you're in a Galaxy s ii forum doesn't mean its the correct one sorry about your phone but you HAVE to read before flashing hopefully this will be a good learning experience for you. Again sorry about the brick
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
I Googled that filename and I'm getting an I777 build of AOKP. I'm pretty sure you can't flash I777 builds on this phone. You're probably hard bricked.
Read, read, read before doing anything other than using the stock software!!! Always make sure you are flashing something made specifically for your device! I hear some of the Skyrocket builds are compatible, but I would double check, and then triple check. Or do what I do and just stay away from them to be safe.
Someone else can confirm whether I777 ROMs work, but if not, you will need to try a warranty replacement or get it JTAGed by MobileTechVideos.
I'm not sure why you were trying to flash an old build anyway, they are on Build 39...but that's another story. Good luck, hope you get it worked out.
Before trying to help you allow to ask two questions: Does your PC "see" the phone? If so as what?
nope. pc does not detect anythin

lol, you done goofed. next time you should only flash things that you find in tmo gs2 forums. ahaha. You defs need a JTAG unless you can get it in download mode. Also, WRONG SECTION.
Questions go in the Q&A section
You might need a S RIFF Box JTAG Boot Repair/Unbrick, make some searches in your area or on the internet to find a qualified person/company to do that for you.

This is not his problem that he is experienceing. If it is not powering up at all then it is truely a hard brick.
I did this to my phone last week and no matter what I tried, i could not bring it back.
check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1707021
I almost gave up and was willing to try to do a warranty exchange (knowing it was not going to be honored).
Sent it to the guys listed on my thread. I guess you have to have software and hardware to basically rewrite the firmware on the phone then put a stock ROM on it.
Luckily I had a restore point already on my external SD card and was able to get everything back.
Its not cheap but it did work for me!

DONT WANT A BRICK? Check here

As of right now, the roms for your S3 are not meant to be used on other S3 variants. Bricks might happens or a soft one might happen. Before flashing a Rom make sure you are in the right development section an you read the entire op, twice. Until other devs or experienced users find a way to make them cross compatible, please refrain from using other carriers S3 roms.

That's slick!:good:
hard brick - a pretty paperweight (tonight)
should have been more careful, soft bricked the phone, 2 times trying to change the dpi.
once trying to flash a rom - the rom flash, took it to QHSUSB_DLOAD mode, not impressed but i'll take this downtime as a time to relax.
Another way to avoid a brick; Don't use a mod, theme, tool or ROM until it's confirmed by multiple people in the community that it's working properly. Read the last 3-4 pages of a thread

I agree with you, I ended up with a soft brick stuck at the samsung glowing logo after trying to unroot because I got a crack the front plastic near the headphone jack. I managed to reset the flash counter and install the rom but odin failed at the end. Now I'm hesitant to flash another ROM. Anyone else here waiting for JellyBean Rom? Definitely take your time and always make sure your computer installs the drivers before doing anything! I got BB to exchange it for me since they couldn't get it to boot and the mystery crack wasn't my fault. I only had it for like 3 days IN A CASE TOO. Happy Flashing dudes.
I'm just glad i saw a forum for the gs3. I would've bricked my phone after i got it.
Another bricker my own fault went to unroot to take in for service and went and loaded a wrong .tar file of the stock system. Anyway...not looking for sympathy..just wanted to say thanks for the forum that gave me the tools to fix my mistake :thumbup:

Phone won't turn on after installing WanamLite | Help

Hey guys, I'm new to the boards and to Android. I was a very longtime user of iPhone and iOS until recently I returned my iPhone 5 for a Note II.
I apologize before hand if I'm coming off as a noob--thats cause I am--but I've ran into a problem.
Late last night I backed up my stock rom and installed [XXDLJ2 4.1.2][V2.0] WanamLite | Aroma. Everything went fine, the phone was working fine and after a while, I knocked out.
This morning the phone wasn't on so I figured it was dead. I immediately left it charging for a couple of hours and when I returned, the phone was still dead, no sign of life.
I'm starting to panic and I'm really hoping someone can help me.
I truly apologize for the noobing and if this thread isn't posted where it supposed to be, please accept my apologies..
thank you in advance.

Can you force into download mode or recovery. Wanamlite isnt s rom for this device so your gonna have problems with it. You need to go back to a device-stable build

Is it even booting to a splash screen (Samsung logo)? If it is, you can force it into download mode and Odin back to stock. There are tutorials on how to do so out there.
If it doesnt turn on at all, or if it just vibrates with a dark screen, you probably have a hard brick and may want to try warrantying it out. I've never had a softbrick that wouldn't power on, and I'd be wary of your Craigslist guy if he says a phone that shows no signs of life is a soft brick...

If I'm not mistaken, it's Clean ROM. The only issue I have is that my cell network is gone. I called and went to a retail AT&T and they couldn't figure out what was wrong.

Your help will be appreciated.
also check to see if you have an IMEI number as well. CleanROM is an att ROM with all the correct data APNs (AccessPointNames), e.g., made from the ATT Stock ROM, so you should be able to connect. on the otherhand, if you don't have an IMEI number you'll need to fix that before you can move forward.

That's what I was thinking as well; the modem might have been lost or corrupted. Easy fix.
OP, if you can get yourself into download mode, you're up against a soft brick. Once you're in download mode, fixing the phone is easy for almost any level of experience. Do some reading here, skim through ROM threads and read the stickies inside-out. There's nothing that guy did that a few hours of research and a little coaching can't help you do yourself.

[Request] Port of the "X-Note" ROM built for the international NOTE4

I wanted to request any of the developers for our phone to port over a ROM made by soloilmeglio for the international variant of Note 4. The ROM is called X-Note and can be found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/rom-x-note-build-1-0-nj4-t2935625.
The developer (soloilmeglio) seems to be well regarded and it looks like the ROM has been crammed with a ton of features. It would be nice if we could get it for our phone also.
You are probably better off contacting the developer and working with him to test and see if he would port it over. Good luck, looks like a great rom.

Yea I suppose if nobody steps up I'll take a shot at it myself. I'm not a developer but I did some research online and various guides teach that you need to replace about 3 folders in the system directory to port a ROM.
I was just hoping that one of the devs would at least acknowledge this thread and take my request into consideration....

I'd also be willing to test. I've never developed before, but I've been flashing for about 3 years now, so I'm moderate experience in testing.
To op if it the same principal as the note 2 which it probably is the international version is pretty hard to port att is the easiest.I'm still debating on the note or nexus 6 if I get the note I will help out some.

I read a few people from the T-mobile phone discussing porting in the thread. I had the note 2 before this phone but don't remember such a discussion. Would you mind linking a thread where people talk about difficulties porting an international version ROM?
Thanks

Just wanted to update you that i am working on this. I have it booting and everything is working with a couple of workarounds. I had to import the apn file from our stock rom to get lte and data working right. I am trying to fix the prl and profile update. I also have hangouts crashing whic i am working on. I reached out to the developer of the rom because i want his permission before i post it.

Awesome! Thanks!
I'm actually not going to post it yet. I spoke to the developer and we are going to bring it to sprint hopefully next week. If it doesn't happen I will post what I have so far. Profile and prl update don't work. LTE and data work but you have to bring APN from old ROM. Was never able to send MMS, not sure about receiving.

Wow. Thank you so much. I had given up any hope that a developer would take this up. I was going to take a shot at it myself but I was wary about the kinds of issues you mention and wouldn't have any idea on how to deal with them.

If all you want right now is the Sprint system update then I can do that as long as you have the original dev's permission to port and post it in our Sprint forum. If you already have data working then upload it to AFH or similar an PM me a link. But if im not mistaken, international phones lack a lot (if not all) of the necessary code/files necessary that reside in settings, jars & framework. Ill know right away if i peek inside just one file. If it lacks the necessary code/files then you might as well forget it because it would be like spending $3,000 to replace the transmission in your $500 Hyundai. Not worth it in that case.
I had the port working but data wasn't great. Only had 3g in certain places. APN wouldn't stick if you select LTE. I think it had to do with the profile not updating, so that might fix data. I'm actually getting a new phone this week because of a major lag issue so I stopped working on it. I spoke to the developer. He said he would help but has been unresponsive this week. I can wait till you release your next rim. You did a good job on the stock ROM. I wish I didn't have a hardware issue.

Hey there. Any update on this? Haven't heard from you in a couple of weeks.
I gave up. Never got data working. Sorry

Thanks for trying. Do you think it would be easier to port the t-mobile version of this?
