i have a 3.7.0 lite SM-T110 i want to flash a CM/AOSP ROM on my device, but i can't find any i have a very noob question, can i flash ROMs from sprint to my lite??
No, you can't. If you try to (at least with TWRP), the recovery will tell you than you can't flash the ZIP file because you don't have the right device. I did not tried and I don't want to try this using ODIN or another recovery.

I apologize in advance if this already exists in a thread, but I can't seem to find the exact problem that I am having on here.I flashed team win recovery project via Odin and rooted with a clockworkmod flashable superuser zip. I am on firmware UMVMD5 android version 4.1.2. everytime that I try to flash a custom kernel it soft breaks the phone. I thought that this phone comes with an unlocked boot loader? no matter what ROM I am on it soft bricks. I make sure that if I am on a TouchWiz rom I've Flash a TouchWiz kernel. And vice versa. will someone please tell me what am i doing wrong or give me a link that explains what I am doing wrong? also, I want to add that i unlock my sim card slot and am using net 10
How are you flashing the Roms and kernels? Also, make sure the recovery is up to date.

Link to the kernel you are flashing.
@yourbabysdaddy
With Touchwiz Rom, you have to flash Touchwiz kernels. AOSP Kernels will softbrick. Always take a nandroid before experimenting.
I'd try KT747 Touchwiz version Not AOSP.
Also please post the name and version of the Kernel you tried.
Hi everyone,
I am currently using PAC-MAN for 4.2 by sudu_petru and would very much like to try KK.
Unfortunately, I think that the only I can update my firmware is via the dload method, wich I
can't use because I'm currently using TWRP recovery 2.6. I am tempted to flash the B118 recovery
but I'm afraid it might brick my device. Is flashing the recovery ONLY as risky as flashing the whole
firmware? Or is it possible to flash the device using the dload method through TWRP?
Regards,
Chovine.

Thank you for your answer, but I'll reformulate my question more simply. I was originally on
B120CN, I installed PAC-MAN and TWRP. I would like to revert to stock recovery so
is it SAFE to flash B118 recovery.img or could it brick my phone?
Thank you for your time .
I flashed CN118 recovery without any problem (except that the phone was vibrating while it was on recovery). If you want you can also flash KK recovery which I prefer and worked better.
It's safe to flash the stock recovery, you will not brick the device with it.
Hello, I wanted to root and install TWRP then a KitKat ROM that's NOT altered or one that's been running and is a proven daily ROM. I haven't messed with Roms or phones for some time so I got all the info I need up to the ROM and I cant seem to find a stock rom. Any ideas?
Thanks!

This is the latest NE1 4.4 stock firmware (france) from sammobile uploaded to a different host by an user for faster download speeds,extract the zip file you'll find a .tar.md5 file flash it via ODIN.Then you can just install custom recovery via pc odin (use philz 6.26 ot 6.41 initially and once you get a custom recovery successfully installed you can switch to twrp) now once into philz recovery flash supersu 1.99 from this post flash it right after you flash your recovery ,your phone should be rooted.Few things that you need to do is uncheck auto reboot in odin when flashing the recovery,after flashing philz you should manually enter it by pressing the right combination of buttons ( volume up + home + power) and then flash the supersup 1.99 zip file right away. (place the supersu zip file in sd card right after you flash the 4.4 ROM and before you proceed to install custom recovery)
Philz touch
twrp
NE 1 Stock France

singhpratik87, I'm a little unclear on the sequence your proposing me to go through to install a ROM. I thought you installed;
1) Superuser ...... Done!
2) ODIN Custom Recovery (TWRP) ...... Done!
3) NE1 4.4 ROM ..... Downloaded moved to phone but not installed...
Ok here are my concerns, I'm on a AT&T 1317 phone will this ROM work OR would a custom ROM be better? Next, what is Philz touch?
Thanks,
Soggy

See you didn't mention that you were on AT&T,unfortunately it wouldn't work you got to wait for your carrier to release the update. My explanations were pretty straight forward but now it doesn't matter anymore since you don't have the international note II GT N7100. The rom was supposed to be flashed via ODIN not SD CARD (it's a stock rom not a custom rom).And the steps are (for future reference) flash stock rom via odin, then flash philz via odin(uncheck auto reboot in odin),manually enter into recovery mode , flash supersu 1.99(or whichever is the latest) , reboot phone , DONE.
Philz touch is another popular recovery used by note II users .it's based on CWM with advanced features.
singhpratik87..... What custom ROM out there is equivalent to the 4.4 kitkat for a AT&T I317 Note 2 running 4.3? Those would prob be better anyway....
Also this other recovery you mention is it better? Like I said I have been out of messing with phones for a few years Thanks!

None in the International Note II forum that would be compatible with AT&T as far as 4.4.2 is concerned.There's no development for 4.4.2 in your a&t note II thread?
why don't you check out this thread which is specifically for your at&t branded note 2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-2-att/development
Hi awesome peoples! anyone happen to know a healthy rom without any aggravating bugs and a link with the best way to install a recovery? My phone is a sprint SPH-L520 its on 4.2.2 right now not rooted yet. It's asking me to update though on firmware na7.
Um once I root with odin can I use flashify to flash the recovery from the 12.1 thread? I don't know how to convert a .img to a tar to get it working in odin. I don't want to experiment with my phone please someone stop me if this will mess it up.
Hey everyone. I'm having some troubles with every custom ROM I install on my S3 T-Mobile (d2tmo) so I want to come back to Stock ROM. I've been watching some tutorials, but lot of them are pretty old, and none is for the Galaxy S3.
So, what do I need to do to go back to Stock ROM?
Should I do a full wipe from recovery (TWRP) and then flash stock ROM via Odin?
The custom ROM I flashed is 6.0.1. The phone had 4.3 when I flashed the custom ROM.
Am I right about what I think I should do?
Thanks in advance. :good:
Yep. The firmware you'll use in Odin should be a .tar.md5 file.
Just flash the latest stock rom from sammobile.com using Odin. No need to do anything before flashing the stock ROM.
After flashing the stock ROM, immediately boot into recovery and perform a factory wipe.

Thank you very much for answering my questions guys! Everything turned out ok!
But I have a doubt about a little think that I hope you could help me.
Before flashing the stock rom I was planning on backing up my efs folder from the TWRP,version 2.8.70 for my s3 (d2tmo), but when I try to do a backup, there no "EFS Folder" option, however, on my other phone, a Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Variant (International Version) when I try to perform a backup there is a EFS folder option for backing up. It is also a TWRP recovery, and same version. 2.8.7.0. I know the phones are completely different, but, why if I'm using the same custom recovery and same version I can't do a EFS Folder backup from the backup option?
I hope I made myself clear about my question. Sorry for my English BTW, it is not my first language.
Thanks in advance!
Maybe this will help although it requires root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s6-edge-plus/development/updating-t3210266
