I hit the wrong button the other day while trying to reflash stock to my S3 and wiped the system folder. the brain had farted and forgotten about the lock out. only had a older version of TWRP so was only able to install Cyanogen 10.0.0.0 and now I can't flash anything else. not a newer version. not a different ROM. everything else fails. I think the error message said something about a boot loader.
it works but CM 10.0.0.0 just isn't working for me (I HAVE to have a camera for work).
any recommendations or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

yes it is. but no mater what I do Odin puts stock (or any other ROM) on and then it's boot loop until I reflash CM 10.0.0.0
I can change recovery using Odin but not the ROM.

Use Philz recovery, do all the wipes including internal SD (not external) and flash whatever ROM you want. TWRP doesn't play as nicely on this phone as Philz.

Sprint is my carrier. I tried the ROMs I have. Boot-stock-dnd8-SPHl710. that won't work because of the lockout I'm told. all of the other ROMs I have are zip files. real damn confusing trying to figure out which is what. I've just spent half an hour looking and as near as I can tell all ROMs come out in .zip not .tar. I am confused and befuddled.
I don't really care what ROM to much. but CM trashes my camera and I have to have it for work.
I really do appreciate your help.

That is a JB ROM. You would have to edit out the asserts before it will flash. But instead of doing that try using Odin to flash stock NJ2. Once you have stock on there, you should flash the last official release of Philz, then flash a ROM, try WickedS5.

I find Philz works better than TWRP on our devices anyway. Feel free to flash ROMs from Philz. Just don't try to Odin anything lower than your current baseband, or you will brick your device.

Yes I'm on 4.4 bootloader. I flashed the tmobile 4.4 nb4 tar. via odin. Flashed CF auto root n9005 version via Odin, and then flashed the TWRP .tar that @bigbiff posted via odin as well. Then in TWRP flashed the latest Philz recovery zip that works with 4.4 bootloader (thats my preference, I like PhilZ.) Then just downloaded and installed Echoe. By the way I had no idea International 4.4 Roms were sooo much faster than ours...its quite noticeable. WIFI and everything works out of box. no need to flash any kernels or anything.

its not the recovery, it's the updater script included in some international roms, you have to modify the updater script so that it doesnt do wipe internal. follow these instructions.
1. Download ROM, open .zip with winRAR or 7zip.
2. Navigate to META-INF\com\google\android
3. Drag updater-script to desktop and open in Notepad++ (http://notepad-plus-plus.org)
4. Delete the following... http://imgur.com/F7rdFCo
5. Save (make sure you save as the same format - just click save and not save as)
6. Drag back into same directory and overwrite the previous updater-script in the rom .zip

LITERALLY THAT MADE ME ROLL AROUND ON THE GROUND AND LAUGH MY ASS OFF.
That my friend was not made for the Canadian Variant. I and my friend MISCOM, made that fix when we started putting out Int. Roms for TMO and Canadian phones. If you go the the Stainless thread, you will see the original posting of that fix. That's why when you flash that fix it says, made by Miscom. All somebody did was change the name of the file and stick it up on other threads. I've in months only seen one person credit Miscom for the work we did. Not mad. Doesn't bother me, we made the fix and said here guys go grab it and put it on the N9005 page so everybody can fix this issue.

I wasn't blaming you. It's opensource, not like we wrote new code to do it. We just took the time to figure out how to fix make everything work.
Its funny because as you stated you had no way of knowing, people renaming it and posted it as their work do. This is probably the 5th name i've seen for this. It doesn't make me mad. Actually it makes me smile that something that was put out is still being used.

So I've been at this for a while now. I've had no issue flashing to LiquidSmooth's Liquid-JB-v2.7-UNOFFICIAL-d710 Android 4.2.2, but I can't for the life of me get this thing to install a version of 4.3.x or 4.4.x.
Right now, I've rolled back to: Rwilco12's SPH-D710_GB27_1014481_Rooted_Nodata.exe Android 4.1.2.
I have CM 11, but when I try to install it using recovery mode, it errors out and aborts the install. All the instructions I find, keep telling me to install CM's 10.2 and then update the bootloader, but I can't find links to the old versions to any of these.
Is there anything in 4.3.x or 4.4.x that has a 1 click Odin install? Or can someone walk me through taking this thing from GB27 to something new? I believe it is rooted per Rwilco's image name.

I'm going to need more help with that aspect. I've tried that. I have TWRP in a zip file that I've tried to install. I downloaded TWRP Manager from the App store. I downloaded Rom manager. Nothing seems to be working. When I select reboot into recovery, it just goes to the stock android recovery and says it failed.
I am able to install E4GT-EL29-directbootCWM-v3.tar.md5
or StockCWM-EL26.tar.md5 using Odin, but no luck installing TWRP.
I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but I have no idea what. This is likely a simple process, but I don't know which files or what order to do this in.
When I flash to E4GT-EL29-directbootCWM-v3.tar.md5 from Odin, it leaves me in recovery mode until I install LiquidSmooth 4.2.x.

Yeah? shoot me the link for one that is working. I was reading all night - most link to threads from 2013 with links that are all broken. You want to send me a working one - great
Most start from something newer, older, etc. Everything I found on GB27 didn't work. Right now, I'm on GB27, with an e3 recovery image from RWilco. I can use the guides to get me from there to Liquidsmooth 4.2.x, but any progress beyond that doesn't work, and I don't want to brick the phone.

Thanks, this got me through it. I ended up using philz_touch_6.15.9-d710.tar to install Cyanogen 11 and gapps for 4.4.2.
Should I be all done now, or would there be more things I'd have to install? I never did anything with the modem files. I also only plan on using this as a PDA so I'm not sure if that is needed.

If you never flashed anything modem-wise, then you're still running the GB27 (JB) modem. You'll need a Gingerbread or ICS modem only if you want working 3g data/MMS messaging.
Otherwise, JB modems shouldn't cause any problems that I know of.
Hi I have been trying to install CWM Recovery on my phone through it's app through the play store. I have installed the recovery (It has said in the app) but when I boot into recovery it boots into default recovery. I am running Jelly Bean and my software version is GB28. I have also tried mobile ODIN but it says my device is unsupported, when I generate a dump file it still does not work. Help would be appreciated thanks

You can't do it that way. If you want CWM, you have to flash a ROM with that recovery attached to it. CM11 nightlies, Commotio, Vanir, Liquid Smooth, PAC ROM all have CWM recovery. That is the only way you can have that on this phone.

Use Mobile Odin to flash the GB27 repack with Agat's recovery, or one of Agat's kernels (either 1.3 or 1.42f).
This is of course assuming you're already rooted and have Busybox installed.
Also keep in mind that on this device, recovery comes bundled with kernel. And flashing a KitKat ROM will probably require a little more reading [emoji6]

Hello all.
So, as a noob, I rooted my tab S successfully and was playing around with the TWRP recovery settings and accidentally deleted my OS. I was able to flash a stock version of Android but now it is stuck in a loop and I have no way of getting it past the loading screen. I am able to access the download mode but I can get no further than that. Is there anyway that you can help me with resetting my device? Could any of you also link me to a thread which can help me unroot my tab so that I can reroot it using CF auto root with TWRP recovery mode installed?
That would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
My model number is: SM-T800NZWAXAR
Wipe Data then flash again, wait at least 10 mins for for first boot.
We flashed tamirda's phoenix rom. I can't even explain the whole process because my cousin helped us out with that, but thanks!!!

Flash the required custom ROM, or reflash the stock rom

Now, I flashed the update but it removed my g-apps and my twrp. Is there a way that I can add those while still preserving the rom?
I will post of this issue in the official thread and see if I can get an answer there as well.
Thanks.

I'm afraid I didn't get an answer from you. I asked for a link but I didn't get one. But you also suggested that I flashed the rom from or custom recovery. Correct me if there is anything wrong in the process that me and my cousin discovered. I probably forgot to mention that I had a T-800 but anyways.
From a prior, we did an ADB sideload of TWRPrecovery. It tooks my cousin a while to find the stuff, but he was able to reinstall the device drivers and sideload it into the system memory. From there, he uploaded the rom installer, which was done through aroma, at that point. Then. we installed, Gapps and customized it to include the services that I want. The rom worked perfectly.
But I messed up when I flashed the OTA through ODIN rather than through twrp. It deleted the custom recovery and a popup saying that gapps could not be located was annoyingly in the way.
So at this point. We were able to root the tablet. then flash the custom recovery. First we loaded the recovery, the actual rom. then gapps, and finally the OTA from the tablet memory. In hindsight, we decided to do this after trying to install straight gapps from the OTA and gapps kept giving an error code 70. After loading everything onto the rom, it worked.
Now I do have a question about xposed. Would I have to flash that in recovery if I wanted to take access of its features? Is there a link on how to use it? Or does that depend on xposed and how well my rom could support it?
Well I won't suggest u to flash xposed since it can give u bootloop problems and I m sure u won't wanna take a risk. But if u really want it then tell me.
And for installing the zip first u will need a deodexed rom installed on ur device

Yeah. I found out the hard way that my device can easily get boot looped with too many modules. I do have a back up ready and a method for wiping and resetting the device.

U will need a de-odexed ROM. If u don't get one, i'll find the way to make the firmware de-odexed. Here's the xposed apk and the zip file:

V3? V75 is the latest version.
According to one user, they tried to flash the latest version's framework only to have it stuck in a boot loop. I tried a 71 exynos file because another user recommended it as the most stable framework for the poster with that issue.

Same thing is happening to me. I've tried using OctOs M and now I am on PacRom 6.0.1 and I am having the same "No sim card" error. I can text and call, but no Data whatsoever.
Have you tried changing your APN settings for your network on your phone?

My stock OS Is 4.1.2 and is running Baseband UVAMB7. Do I need to go for the higher updates for the LTE to work?

I think you need to be on UVUBOH1.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949687 has the list of FW and it looks like you are using a super super old baseband.

Do I need to use ODIN for this? I tried installing UVUBOH1 with TWRP, but I get an error when I installing it:
"could not find 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file"

Yes, download https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347821137
NOTE, if you click on "UVUBOH1" and not the androidfilehost link in the FW thread, it links you to the wrong FW and you'll flash UVUBNC1! Make sure you click the androidfilehost link underneath UVUB0H1.
Then flash it with odin.
Afterwards let it reboot and upgrade, then odin TWRP back and either restore a nandroid or flash the rom of your choosing
Oh also, if you're still on 4.1 and on a touchwiz rom, you may want to factory unlock it before you upgrade.. Just because you can. Follow the unlock thread on here

Thank you so much! I will try this out soon and respond with the results! And I had already unlocked my device :. I had to root and use the RegionLock app to unlock it, as the *#197328640# menu option did not work for me.

Was quite a bit of trouble at first . I managed to download and flash the software. flashed TWRP via odin.
Then through TWRP, I rooted by using the Knox remover zip (as i was on official 4.3, my service signal did shoot up to normal again!). Installed SuperSU.
Now when I try to flash any ROM via TWRP it gives errors such as "Status 7", or error reading MD5 when I try to backup software.

Make sure twrp is up to date for d2tmo, and make sure the rom you are flashing is 4.3 or later. I'm pretty sure that once you're on the latest 4.3 rom you can't flash anything lower

That's strange, I'm using 3.0.2.0 and the latest 999L baseband and I haven't had any issues with flashing.
I'm Using the MM pac rom but I've tried CM14.1 nightly builds with no problem

I have finally managed to figure it out. You need to completely format the entire ROM currently installed from your phone. Once that is done, you can add any ROM to install properly. I'm running well on OctOS-N 3/17/2017 build.
Thanks all for your help.
