Desperated to Flashing Samsung GT-I9082 - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hello Everyone!
Im new here and will just get to the point.
I will explain my problem with super detail, so you guys can give me best solution
Source of my Problem
I love summoner war.. Totally love it, but everytime the App update, i have to delete another Apps because the device told me that i dont have enough space to update the game. Even there's no other app except Summoner Wars. So i wondering why my Phone keep telling me that the space isnt enough?
Later i learned there's 'Ghost Files' in my internal memory and it keep getting bigger and bigger. Im googling how to get rid of them and give up because its too complicated for me
Then out of nowhere, i got an idea to re-flash my phone and update it to v4.4.x(Kitkat)

The bigger problem begins
I learned how to reflash my device. Got 2 methods. And need the ROM itself so I downloaded the ROM
1. Using Download Mode + Odin
2. Using Recovery Mode

Device Model : GT-I9082

1. Turned my device off
2. Get to Download Mode
3. Connect device to PC
4. Odin Can't detect my device
Because i hate complicated things, so i moved away to Recovery method. (My biggest mistake)
1. Copy ROM to SD card
2. Turned my device off
3. Get to Recovery Mode
4. Wipe File/Reset Factory > WIPE ALL DATA TO INSTALL NEW ROM (Is this my mistake?)
5. Data Wiped out and locating ROM directory
6. Directory located and Installing ROM.
7. Error, 'Installation Aborted' (There's no status 6/7 message. Just Aborted)
Again, because hate complicated things, i changed my mind to reflash my device and just Reboot it.
And then.. My device Stuck in the booting logo screen, it's not like Bootloop because it doesnt keep restarting over and over. It just hang in logo screen so i cant say its a bootloop.
My first Question is..
What's the name of the Error? its reaaaaaaally bugging me..
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And the Journey Begins..
Because there's only 2 methods to installing new ROMs, so i focusing to Fix the problem each method.
1. Download Mode
How to make the Odin detect my Device?
2. Recovery Mode
How to prevent the 'Installation Aborted' Error at Installing ROMs?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Suggestions so far
1. Download Mode
- Install/Re-Install Samsung Driver (2x Tried. Failed)
- Try another Computer (First Computer is Win 8.1, try to Win 7 Professional. Failed)
- Take the battries out when connecting to PC at Download Mode (My device turned off instead. Failed)
- Change the USB Cable
(First USB Cable is a Samsung Cable, there's notif sound in my PC, there's installing Driver software pop-up in my PC, BUT it tooks forever and Never Finished. Second USB Cable is Oppo F1 Cable, there's notif sound in my PC and nothing else. Failed)
- Enter the Download Mode (Press Vol Up) at the same time when connecting the USB to PC (Fail)
2. Recovery Mode
- Wipe data/Reset Factory > Wipe Chache > Wipe Dalvik Chache (Countless times. Failed)
- Download the original Stock ROM (v4.2.2) and Install it (Same error. Failed)
- Editting ROM data + watching youtube video how to do it
(There's difference between my ROM's Files with in the Video's File, the File of mine started with 'GT' but in the vid started with 'cm' AND the content inside the file is different, in the video is subfolders but in my File is just 2 File: tar.md5 and a .dll. Failed)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
My hypothesis so far
1. Download Mode
The problem is in the USB Driver or unsupport Cable
2. Recovery Mode
The problem is, the ROM i used is not the ROM for recovery Installation, the ROM is just for ODIN Installation.

CWM RECOVERY FOR THE KARBONN A18!!
Hey guys!! Finally i ported the ClockWorkMod ICS recovery (non-touch) onto our device!!
For people who dont know what CWM recovery and its benefits are, read this -> http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-clockworkmod-recovery-and-how-to-use-it-on-android-complete-guide/
So, here are the steps on getting the CWM on Karbonn A18-
What you need
1. Karbonn A18, data usb cable.
2. Download the CWM recovery image file from the attachment below this post.
3. Download SP Flash Tool from my another post -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1353992&d=1348592592
4. Download MTK6575 Driver from -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1353943&d=1348591411
5. Download the MTK6575 Scatter.txt file from the attachment below this post.
Installation Steps-
1. Unzip and Install the MTK6575 USB drivers on your Windows PC, just run setup.exe.
Connect your phone switched off and battery removed using USB cable. Windows will recognize and install the MTK drivers for your phone (any free COM ports) will be configured. Disconnect the phone. Put the battery back but do not switch on the phone
2. Copy the CWM recovery file that you downloaded from my attatchment. Rename it to be recovery.img
4. Extract and run SP flash Tool.exe (the one with Blue image icon)
5. Click on Options, check USB mode.
6. Click on Scatter-loading button which is on the right side below Downloading Agent. A window will open. Browse to your downloaded scatter.txt file. By default you will have only one map file of name MT6575_Android_scatter_emmc. Select this
7. The flash tool will populate the Map file on the application window. You will see multiple Entries such as
PRELOADER
DSP_BL
MBR
etc etc. Each will have a check box which is by default checked.
8. UNCHECK all entries EXCEPT FOR "RECOVERY". Leave Recovery checked. Now click on the "RECOVERY" just right to the checkbox and browse and select the cwm.img file you downloaded from the attachment below.
9. Now click on "Download" on the Application or press F9 on keyboard. Warning messages will occur, but ignore them..
10. You will see in the status bar below "Searching"
11. Connect your phone (switched off and with battery inserted) via the USB cable.
12. Flash tool will do its stuff. First a red progress bar, then a count down, a quick yellow progress bar and final window showing Green Circle.
If you get this the Congrats You have flashed CWM !
Check by unplugging the phone and re-starting it with Power+Volume Down button Pressed. The Phone will boot into CWM !.
Enjoy !
Warning - Please follow the instructions. Don't mess around with anything else. Not responsible if you do anything else and brick your device !
In case you get any other error on SP Flash Tool, then recheck your MTK driver installation. Try on another PC.
BUGS / Not functioning features :
Backing up the data not working
USB mount SDCARD through recovery not working

I, Me & Myself..

Hello.
Me too.
I can not install your update.
I allocated it into the sd card, I started the recovery, but it gave me out "installation aborted" .
I tried to install the cwm recovery with nokia x manager (with the right drivers and everything as you said), but the process hangs at nokia initial logo , and is necessary to remove the battery (after 60 min) for restart the phone. Nokia flash , however, if I try to install it on windows professional 32 bit ( the only windows I have, because I use linux) , tell "is not an application for 32-bit" .
Thanks for your work.

I apologize for my error but I had write on the wrong thread.
I have not tried the solution proposed here , I tried the solution proposed in the other thread, with the update 1.2.4.1 .
Unfortunately they were open both and I responded to the wrong one.
I hope you will forgive me and especially yoann44 .
I can not download the package because i think that in my country is impossible to pay . I continue to put the code but says it is wrong.
Nor with safari or google chrome I can finish the procedure.
How can I do?
I don't understand about what are you saying, I think you phone is full brick if you are unable to enter in Bootloader Mod, so check your productcode and discribe you problem
Just Download and Follow the Guide from Below Links if you are able to enter in bootloader mode (Half Brick). Otherwise claim you warranty.
Nokia X Flasher are free by Devs.

Ok now I tried it but without success.
I have done everything.
However :
1) "done" it never arrived even after half an hour
2 ) I repeated the operation
3 ) at the end everything is back (hopefully) normal without root
For me, this method does not work: installation aborted.

CM13 - Installing Questions

Hi all, first time working with Samsung devices, so got noob question, please bear with me.
I'm currently on 4.2.2 stock.
How to:
1. Download ODIN 3.10.7 on a Windows OS
2. Choose your device package and flash it via ODIN :
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=54013
3. Flash TWRP 3.0 recovery from ODIN or older version of TWRP :
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=31895
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I read from some searching that both device baseband package (from [2]) and TWRP (from [3]) is to be flashed via the AP section of ODIN.
My question is, if I would like to perform a backup of my current stock, can I just flash [2] and [3], then boot into recovery to do nandroid backup?
Will flashing [2] and [3] prevent the stock backup from booting afterwards, if I restore it?
no dont worry .flashing recovery just changes your current recovery into twrp. the second package is needed to be flashed in order that cm13 recognizes sim and baseband wont be unknown any more.
after flashing thise two you'll be able to work with your phone like before and yes you can get a nandroid backup of your current rom until you haven't wiped.
@darknessd31 thank you so much. I managed to get it to work.
Now I got one more problem - files as small as 7mb will give this error when opened:
"The file is too big to be open inside this device."

My Note 8 bricked, but if I remember correctly, restarting did the trick for me.

Lenovo K8 Note Red State Bootloop After Flashing Custom Recovery

Hello Guys,
The issue is that i wanted to root my lenovo k8 note so follow this link "https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/tutorials-how-to-root-lenovo-k8-note-t3685502", Everything works file but in last rooting step no. 9
9. If you see internal storage 0mb Then GoTo Wipe and FORMAT DATA once & reboot to recovery
but in my device there has memory 59999mb so i ignored and reboot using twrp but it says no OS installed
and shows orange state, then i format phone using twrp but nothing happens again orange state and no os installed.
then i found another article with same issue "https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/lenovo-k8-note-stuck-boot-logo-flashing-t3751324/post75974342#post75974342" and found this
The bootlogo issue.
Hey! I read your post regarding your k8 note being stuck at the bootlogo.
Consider that you can still use TWRP, boot into it.
Then go ahead and download the SuperSU zip on your PC/laptop and connect your phone with a USB. You might be able to see the SD card folders on your PC, then you can just copy and paste it to the internal sd and flash it. You'll be good to go. If that doesn't work, in the TWRP Mode, go to advanced and select ADB sideload. You can now flash using ADB sideload.
Search for tutorials on ADB sideload. It's easy and that should work.

Are you okay with losing your data on your phone? If yes then go ahead and flash stock ROM with sp flash tool. And about your problem, I guess you wiped the /system partition as well that's why it was showing no os installed.
Another thing is that if you install twrp Do not boot up your phone, boot up into twrp by pressing volume up and power button at the same time you'll need to flash magisk or supersu so that twrp can modify partition correctly.
Thanks

I have lost all my mind and need serious help.
Recently, the march update came. i forgot that rooted phone should not be updated by the OTA update. And i did. As a result i got stuck in a bootloop. Then I had to use the oreo ROM from this forum and flashed it using SP Flash tool. It was a successfull flash. Then I used Maui META to write the IMEI for both sim. That was successfull too(Wifi and bluetooth addresses were working by themselves and i didnt write the serial number of the phone).
After working nicely for three days, i was using Whatsapp and a friend of mine sent me a .pptx file (powerpoint presentation). I opened it using WPS office app. I opened it multiple times in morning with no problems. But in the afternoon at about 2.53 PM while i was in my car, i was unable to open the file. The phone hanged. It heated up. To get out of the hang, i restarted the phone using the power button. IT DID NOT START. All it showed was the lenovo logo screen. And after doing more restarts, the phone went completely blank.
Now i cannot start it, or charge it. So i thought of flashing it again. But when i connect it to my PC, it keeps CONNECTING and DISCONNECTING. what i saw in the device manager was that the driver keeps changing very fast betwee MTK USB PORT and PRELOADER.
I found the solution to be updating the drivers manually. I did. Now the driver shows only DA USB VCOM and when it changes, it goes invisible in the PC and then appears back. Now when i start flashing, the first red progress bar appears as: Download DA 100%. and the flash hangs. After some time, this error will popup: ERROR: STATUS_UNKNOWN_STORAGE_TYPE (0xC0040009)
Please someone help me.

I couldn't find more about the problem online, can you please upload a screenshot of the error. Try using the latest version of SP Flash Tool and see if the problem persists
I have lost all my mind and need serious help.
here are the screenshots. Note that the battery is in the phone always because i am unable to open the back cover. During the flashing process, i did not press the vol - button.
https://ibb.co/sq8knnj
https://ibb.co/VjqKQm3
https://ibb.co/4VkVPjs
https://ibb.co/cw2BzLC
https://ibb.co/kcjjJ74
Now in the following screenshots, i kept the vol - button pressed down. Note that the driver is stuck at preloader and not DA. Also the first bar is yellow color in both these cases. However, in the above situation, multiple files were flashed. But in this below situation, only this so called "flash" was done; that too unsucessful in the end.

The problem may be with your drivers, i see you have Preloader drivers only.

So i did as you said brother. I don' t know how but something happened. The phone, after a long time actually displayed up. It showed the LENOVO logo and down in the corner two things came in written :
>device unlocked
>Tool DL image Fail
I googled it up and found that it requires to flash the phone with the DA DL option ticked. I did that but it does not flash. The error is same as follows:
https://ibb.co/Ssj58Zd
Can you please guide me in the flashing process? I think the mistake is very small but i don't know where i am missing.

Okay so what i figured out is that in this state: (battery plugged in, no notification LED response, no response on power or volume buttons) the driver you require is MTK USB PORT.
I updated to this driver manually, and guess what? the phone actually flashed. But three files remained and the process hanged. (system, cache and userdata)
Now i get the errors:
>device unlocked
>Tool DL image Fail
and sometimes: >device otp failed
I am trying to flash the rest three files individually. Lets see what happens.

Hey Guys Im Back! Thank you for the support and how it blew up. I have tested this on Android 10 UI 2.0 and it works better then ever!
Also installed lineage os : https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a10/development/rom-lineage-os-a10-a105f-t4078093
So i tried using afaneh92's tutorial which will be linked here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a10/how-to/magisk-root-galaxy-a10-series-t3963822
Which lead to me bootlooping or softbricking and my storage was reduced from 32 gb to 16Gb so i decided to work on my own method!
Credits go to afaneh92 for the Twrp!
BEFORE YOU START YOU SHOULD HAVE
1.Samsung Drivers installed
2.Odin Installed
3.7zip Installed
4.A data transfer cable
5.A Proper working brain
If you have all of those lets start!
A: Phone settings
1.Go in settings>about phone>software information>build number tap that 5 times until it says "You are a developer now" then you will have Developer options unlocked
2.Then go in developer functions and find OEM unlocking tick that on scroll down until you see Usb Debugging and tick that also Disable Auto Updates option
B: Download TWRP and 2 other important files
1.Dial *#1234# and it will show the AP and some others, focus on AP paste it on google and get the download for it
2.After downloaded move the AP to your download folder in your android device
3.You will get a magisk_patched.tar after its been offically converted
4.Get the twrp for a10
Download the twrp file here : https://mega.nz/#!OU1WhSDZ!vQz5K1wpqBhg0hCD59aziaHPxFlUsT_2WG8SgT8p6iY
5.After you got everything open the .tar archive and extract vbmeta.img, boot.img and you should already have recovery.img on your Desktop
6.Grab all the 3 .img files and archive them into a .tar using 7zip, Now continue to step C,
C :Unlocking The Bootloader and Getting Into Download Mode (THE PART WHERE YOU RESET YOUR PHONE)
1.Turn Off your phone
1.2.Put your data cable into your PC(dont connect your phone to it yet)
1.3.Hold Volume Up and Down then insert the cable into your phone
1.4.When you see a bluescreen let go
1.5.Hold vol up until you see another screen then let go for 1 second and hold vol up again
2.Your device will reset itself and reboot
2.1.After the device has booted in into the setup take the cable out after Turn off your phone
2.2.Hold Vol Up and Down again and connect the cable
2.3.Let go when a blue screen appears then press vol up until you are in download mode
D: Flashing TWRP
1.Open Odin
2.Press on AP then find Desktop.tar and press open
3.Press start and let it do its thing
4.After your Phone has rebooted you oficially have TWRP installed
5.If you want to know hoe to root go to step E
E: Installing Magisk
Since magisk is counted as the best rooting option rn i will be using it in this tutorial(Sorry supersu fans)
1.Install Magisk Manager
2.Press on Install (first one) then press install again and after that press Install Zip Only
3.Then go into Twrp by doing the steps below
3.1.Turn off your device
3.2.Hold vol up and power button untill you see TWRP logo
4.Press install
4.1.Find magisk-v20.4(20400).zip
4.2Swipe right on the bottom to flash it then press reboot system now.
5.Now you have TWRP,Root and Magisk Congratulations!
What happens if something goes wrong.
1.SV Error Device 1 library 0 - You installed the wrong firmware look for the right firmware.To check go in recovery mode and look at the A105XXXXXX and then look for a download. Remider AP->AP BL->BL CP->CP HOME_CSC->CSC
2.vbmeta.img error - you have the wrong vbmeta.img file. Redownload the original firmware and take out the right vbmeta.img next time you try flashing. Reminder AP->AP BL->BL CP->CP HOME_CSC->CSC
3.A blue screen telling you to use samsung switch emergency update. That wont work so just flash the original firmware and try flashing twrp again.
4.When i try to boot in it gets me into TWRP - Thats just because that your data is corrupted and to fix it while in TWRP mode press wipe then swipe after its done press Reboot To System. That should be a fix
5.My internal storage is just full of weird numbers and I can't download anything on it! Go in TWRP then wipe,press advanced wipe, click on internal storage and data, swipe. That should fix the error
6.Boootlooping or Bricked! Installed corrupted firmware or the recovery was f-ed up. Then install the right firmware and redo the steps!
If you have issues during the process send it in the comment ill try to respond as fast as i can!
i notice thread title says exynos only.. u do know they are all exynos including a102u and a102u1 right?
Oh. Alright thanks for telling me.
Press on app? I have nothing in odin saying that, do you mean ap?
Edit: guess not....i'm bricked, stuck on galaxy logo, device not recognized by pc, holoding power button wont force reboot, nothing lol.
Edit2: can force reboot holding volume down and power but instantly stuck on logo again, cannot power off or enter download, nothing...bricked. Followed this guide to the letter. I assumed when you said app in odin you meant ap since there is no app button. My bootloader unlocked then I went to flash in odin the tar i made with patched boot and vbmeta, along with recovery linked. I used matching firmware to what my A10 has also. Would not mind if i could get back into download mode, but that looks impossible now.
Edit3: Managed to get download mode but had to be so quick...hopefully I can reflash stock now.

Im sorry for that and yes i meant AP.
If you wanted to reboot you had to hold vol up vol down and power at the same time and you sure that you unlocked the bootloader and used the right firmware?
Also tell me the AP and from which source have you downloaded it :laugh:

The corruption was my side, I was using a download manager, but when I downloaded through chrome it was all good. As I said, schoolboy error on my part for not checking md5. I used sammobile site for the firmware.

E: Installing Magisk
Since magisk is counted as the best rooting option rn i will be using it in this tutorial(Sorry supersu fans)
1.Install Magisk Manager
2.Press on Install (first one) then press install again and after that press Install Zip Only
3.Then go into Twrp by doing the steps below
3.1.Turn off your device
3.2.Hold vol up and power button untill you see TWRP logo
4.Press install
4.1.Find magisk-v20.4(20400).zip
4.2Swipe right on the bottom to flash it then press reboot system now.
5.Now you have TWRP,Root and Magisk Congratulations!
What happens if something goes wrong.
1.SV Error Device 1 library 0 - You installed the wrong firmware look for the right firmware.To check go in recovery mode and look at the A105XXXXXX and then look for a download. Remider AP->AP BL->BL CP->CP HOME_CSC->CSC
2.vbmeta.img error - you have the wrong vbmeta.img file. Redownload the original firmware and take out the right vbmeta.img next time you try flashing. Reminder AP->AP BL->BL CP->CP HOME_CSC->CSC
3.A blue screen telling you to use samsung switch emergency update. That wont work so just flash the original firmware and try flashing twrp again.
4.When i try to boot in it gets me into TWRP - Thats just because that your data is corrupted and to fix it while in TWRP mode press wipe then swipe after its done press Reboot To System. That should be a fix
5.My internal storage is just full of weird numbers and I can't download anything on it! Go in TWRP then wipe,press advanced wipe, click on internal storage and data, swipe. That should fix the error
6.Boootlooping or Bricked! Installed corrupted firmware or the recovery was f-ed up. Then install the right firmware and redo the steps!

Be cause you modified the firmware ignore that message
have you fixed the storage reduced to 16gb problem?
I have a Samsung galaxy sm-a10. I've tried everything here, even combination files. The error I ALWAYS get is 'failed flashing ROM... OEM lock'
Of course I have unlocked OEM in developer options, but still I get this error in the bootloader.
Any ideas?
