I downloaded the stock untouched 10c firmware zip, and the 10c partitions zip and extracted them. I got bin files and I renamed the modem from bin to IMG and bootloader I'm not quite sure which file is it. IIRC its the aboot.bin which I'd rename to IMG.
In twtp I tried flashing just the modem and its asking which partition boot or recovery to flash it. I chose neither cause modem obviously doesn't belong there.
Can I use flashify for the modem IMG and bootloader one? Once I know which one is bootloader?
Or what's the best way? I'm downgrading both since I've heard res-remix 5.4.1 (android 5.1) will let data work with them
Why are you trying to downgrade? 10m had best battery life, 10r was most stable. 20b is both
Anyone know where I can find a 100% stock LS980_ZVD (Odexed) ROM? Are there any 100% stock LS980 (Odexed) ROMs that can be installed via TWRP or Flashify? I can't seem to find any 100% stock ROMs at all.
EDIT: Oh well, I guess it's .tot time! Now I need to find a Windows PC...
I updated my bootloader unlocked g4 to MM using lg brigde, and then installed TWRP. I then proceded to root by installing a rooted kernel called STOCK-20A-rooted. Worked fine, but my sd card is now not working. is there a fix for this?
You most likely have installed the wrong kernel. There are two different versions of the 20A stock rom. Search for systemless root, that should work with both versions. You need reflash stock kernel. After I had the same issue, I downloaded flashable zips (by @autoprime) and followed his instructions on how to flash, after this I installed systemless root.
Hey!
I just recently flashed twrp recovery and flashed some custom roms without making a backup of the stock ROM. Is there a way that I can flash the stock ROM and continue having OTA updates?
Thanks
I will assume that you have removed apps in you current ROM so before you return to stock you need to have a pre-rooted firmware will all the asus apps installed. Here is the link to the guide and follow the Pre-root stock method.

But shouldn't this method work?

Do I still need a pre-rooted stock to flash the stock ROM?

I havent tried that method, but I think its the same. You can try it but be sure to follow it corrwctly and I read that it only works specific version of twrp. Read the thread and comment before doing it.

Yeah, that was the problem. I forgot I had to flash lollipop recovery and now it worked fine. I was also able to flash the stock rom with this method with marshmallow twrp but I had to flash the pre-rooted system image first through fastboot. Thanks!
Hi,
I am running stock Android 9.0 firmware on my Samsung Galaxy S9 (SM-G950F) with TWRP recovery and Magisk.
I want to update my firmware to a newer stock Android 9.0 firmware by flashing it as update.zip in TWRP, without formatting data.
I have downloaded the ODIN flashable firmware from sammobile, but this is not a TWRP flashable zip.
Where do I get an update.zip or how can I genereate it?
Thanks,
Stefan

uhm... wut? You cant do what youre asking. Youll have to get a compiled ROM and flash it. I dont have a rootable version of the S9, so im not familiar with the ROMs that are available, but are there not any 9.0 ROMs you can flash?
Actually, I would also switch to an already compiled ROM, if it wold be possible to do without wiping the data partition. But all ROMs have this as a prerequisite, if you switch to them from a stock ROM.
I will probably try to flash the stock firmware via ODIN with Home_CSC, although this is riskier than flashing the firmware via TWRP.
A better way, as I understand would be to get a Samsung OTA firmware file. Since https://firmware.science is down, does someone know an alternative?

you dont flash firmware in TWRP, just ROMs. And if you flash a deodexed stock ROM that has the same base as yours, you shouldnt need to wipe
Flashing a deodexed stock ROM sounds good. By same base do you mean the baseband version (G950FXXU4CRKB in my case) or the build number (R16NW.G950FXXS4CRLB)?
