Hi guys,
I was trying to downgrade to COF6 from the leaked DOF8 so I could install the new COF8 update via OTA. My phone was rooted running UniKernel.
I used ODIN to install the entire COF6 firmware - and did a factory reset. Now I'm stuck in a bootloop. It get Tmobile boot screen for a few seconds, then restarts. I've tried to re-flash a few times, and it didn't work. In recovery, it says "dm-verity verification failed".
I'm not sure what else to do at this point - there aren't a lot of options. Any thoughts?
Thank you so much.
@flying_pigs, just do a factory reset from recovery. To boot into recovery hold power+home+volume up when device reboots again. Device should boot alright after factory reset.

Thanks for your reply. I did this first thing, and it didn't work. Exact same thing - device reboots after reset - shows Samsung boot logos, shows Tmobile logo, and reboots endlessly.

Try redownloading the file then odin again. Did you make sure to unlock the bootloader in developer options?

Just tried that...and same problem. Using the file G925TUVU2COF6_G925TTMB2COF6_G925TUVU2COF6_HOME.tar.md5
And yes, it was unlocked, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to install UniKernel.
Thanks so much for your help.

Try just doing the odin of COF6 don't do the factory reset
Ok, somehow I fixed it.
I was able to load up TWRP, so did a full reset there. Then I re-odin'd the file again, this time using the AP button instead of the CP button. Restarted....and now I'm back up.
Thanks everyone for your help, it was able to set me on the right path.

Yeah always use AP slot glad you got it going! I may odin flash back tonight to get on cof8. The unikernel should still be able to root it
@ flying_pigs glad you got it fixed. Btw, always always always use AP (PDA on old Odin 307 and before) for flashing a firmware.. CP is for modem. Anyway, OF8 firmware is also out. Here.

Hi I recently purchased a note II t889v, I didn't have a micro sim at the time to test it properly. I am stuck on edge:2 while on rogers. I then noticed that it had been flashed by the previous owner. So I looked around the forums.
Details:
-In download mode model is listed as sgh-t889v_NA_VTR
-I have tried to reflash to stock MCT T889VVLALJ4 gets stuck in boot loop
-extracted the modem.bin and flashed using odin and cwm flash. sometimes boots up to lock screen but crashes then reboots or freezes
-using t-mob t889 modem(T889UVALJ1_Modem.zip) allows me to start the and use the phone, but limits to edge:2
-IMEI is listed in the status
I'm trying to get the phone to connect to UMTS.
Any help or input would be appreciated thank you in advance.

1. downloaded the T889VVLALJ4_T889VYVLALJ4_MCT firmware from sammobile
2. downloaded odin 3.07
3. put phone into download mode using voldown+home+power
4. opened odin
5. plugged in usb.
6. waited for com to show up and looked for added msg.
7. clicked pda selected the T889VVLALJ4_T889VYVLALJ4_T889VVLALJ4_HOME.tar.md5 file
8. ensured auto boot and f reset only checked.
9. pressed start.
10. phone reboots into a boot loop
11. hold volup+home+power go into stock recovery and factory reset
12. reboot system
13. still in bootloop
also I don't know if this will help solve the issue. with odin I cannot flash any modems other than t889v(LJ4). whenever I try to flash t889(LJ1) modem it fails in odin but works when using CWM.

I hope so too. I just don't understand why the phone won't boot up unless I use the t-mobile modem. but I only get stuck on edge:2
I just noticed that when I boot up after installing a stock rom I'm still rooted does that mean anything?
i get bootloop too on the t889v without the t889v mdm. so strange.

Hi guys,
I've tried to root my device using this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31801060&postcount=2
I used method 2 because I wanted CWM.
I found that when Odin reboots the phone it goes straight into Android itself, not the recovery CWM. I disabled the autoreboot and flashed again and manually rebooted but still my stock recovery persists, not CWM.
What can I do to get CWM?
Thanks in advance!
It should work.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
It will have CWM flashed. Maybe you should just tick the auto reboot option then when the OS loads up shut down your note and boot to Recovery.

when I boot into recovery it's the stock one, but it shows the status as custom. And the count increases with each time I run it through the ODIN process.
Any advice guys?
Maybe your flashable odin cwm file does not properly work. Something is wrong, Try to reset your flash counter with Triangle Away. Then proceed with installation.

I had to donit the same way...flashed a pretty rooted ROM...then using mobile Odin and latest philz touch I flashed it and it works..
Hello,
My unrooted At&T galaxy s3 will not go past the Samsung Galaxy SIII splash screen. When I enter recovery it just gives me a dead android guy.
I had this problem before and to fix it, I used odin to flash the stock 4.0.4, then I flashed 4.1.1 (I think these are the correct versions, I followed instructions here), then my phone wouldn't OTA update to touchwiz 4.3 so I flashed it using recovery mode using instructions and files I found here. The phone worked fine for a few weeks after that, but then started to reboot randomly and delete apps. Eventually it just stopped working all together which is where I am now.
I tried to install TWRP using odin which odin says worked but when I try to go to recovery mode I still just see the dead android guy. The phone did not have USB debugging mode turned on so I am not sure if I could install a custom recovery at all.
I tried the CF-auto root that I found here which got partway through and then failed.
Do you guys have any suggestions? Is there a stock touchwiz 4.3 rom that I could flash using odin??
Thank you very much, please let me know if you require any more information, I really want to get my phone working again.

It almost sounds like you're dealing with a situation I'm having on my galaxy tab. It has the internal SD chip going bad. I had to use a rom specially made to boot from a partitioned external sd card. Sorry, I can't help more, but the symptoms seem similar.

Try flashing the TWRP again with Odin, but make sure the auto reboot option on the left is unchecked in Odin. After flashing, unplug the phone and then hold volume up + menu + power buttons at the same time until it reboots.

Yes it did, the first time that this started happening. But I was unable to do that again, I thought since I flashed all the way to 4.3 and I read that once you go to 4.3 you can't go back. Is that correct?
Thank you for your help. I was hoping to try an odin flashable touchwiz 4.3 but I can't seem to find one.
So you had 4.04 on your phone and you used OTA updates to get to 4.3? If this is correct, then you can't flash a stock AT&T 4.3 ROM because it has never been made available to the public; therefore, the only 4.3 ROMs that may work are based on the leaked AT&T 4.3 ROM or compiled from an OTA update.
Once of these ROMs may get your phone going again: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2498233

Did you try installing Philz Touch from Odin? As was suggested earlier, don't use auto reboot. Once Philz has been installed and you see Reset in the window, disconnect the USB cable, remove the battery, replace the battery, boot into recovery, wipe and flash a custom ROM. This may help you get your phone working for now.

Nope, USB debugging will not make a difference.
The latest Philz Touch is based on the latest CWM. After your flash Philz, are you letting the phone auto reboot on its own after flashing in Odin?
I know of no way to convert a custom ROM so it can be flashed in Odin.

If you get download mode, try getting a recovery installed, like a phillz touch or cwm. look for one that will compliment your os that you have installed and then try getting into recovery.
You might even do as someone else pointed out, return to complete stock, and take it from there.....

Download the NB4 firmware from Shiny's thread linked above and move it to your desktop. Put your phone into download mode. Open ODIN (I prefer to use either v1.85 or v3.07, but you can use the latest 3.09). Connect your phone to your computer and wait for it to appear in the COM: window. Click on the PDA button and load up the firmware you downloaded from Shiny's thread. UNcheck everything that is already checked. Make sure nothing is checked. Click Start and wait for everything to finish. After you get the Success/PASS message, unplug your phone and hold down the power button for about 5-10 seconds until the screen turns off then release the power button. Let it reboot on its own and your phone should boot up with no problems.

Yeah no doubt it'll work, but if he can't boot past that screen then something else is wrong. Never heard of this problem before. Just have to wait for the OP to reply.
I installed the phill recovery, remove the battery and awaken the next day to try enter in the recovery mode and it worked..... from there I install cyanogen and everything works perfect
Sorry for my english:victory:
I just got caught in a nasty bootloop so was reading your post, nothing I did would get me into recovery. Then it caught my eye that you had let the phone sit overnight and I bet you had that plugged in and charging, my battery was in the 30% range so swapped it out with a fresh one and it went right into recovery and I was able to flash what I needed to. Just an fyi.
