Hello to all of you!
I'm a newbie in flashing ROMs... ahaha
I'm trying to install LineageOS 14.1 into my Samsung A5 17 but I'm running into some problems... I hope that someone around here can help me out
So right now I’m on Android 8.0 with the stock Samsung experience, bootloader ecc… I’ve tried to install TWRP and lineageOS 14.1, and it runs fine but it can’t recognize the SIM card! I did some research and turns out that I’ve to install first the stock Samsung ROM with 7.0 nougat and then install lineage in order to make the SIM show up. So I’ve tried to do so but when I try to flash the original stock ROM with Odin it returns this problem:
The flash fails after it tries to insert the param.bin file
The device in download mode return this error:
sw rev. check fail(bootloader) device: 7, binary: 4
Can you give me some advice?
Thanks :angel:
Why would you want to downgrade?
Make sure you have the proper ROM, as well as CS file.
Download said files again.
For some reason my brothers windows 10 partition hates downloading the files properly, on my Linux partition I never had said issues.
Because the I've read in other topics that if downgrade my phone to 7.0 it would be able to read the SIM card after install LineageOS 14.1, but I'm not sure about that. Am I right?
Don't worry I've tried to download the stock ROM multiple times but in every case it returns me this error.
I think that the ROM files aren't the problem.
Other advice? Thx you btw
Same here , my phone doesnt recognize sim aswell , but i didnt installed any custom rom i just had stock rom. It started with android 8 i tried a lot , but i cant make it work , if someone knows how to fix tell me.
And about the Binary on the device , you have to download a rom with a higher binary that you already have , since you have 7 you can only update to a 7 binary or higher , to know which is the binary on the rom ill Tell you how to realize the binary
The rom's file name is like this FXX5UIR7XVBR that seven in the last characters is the binary number of this rom. It was just an example.
Sorry about my english.
So if someone knows how to fix sim card problem it will help me so much , i tried to flash another stock rom , like 3 or 4 and nothing happened , imei is right its not corrupted or something.
Thx

Don't worry for the English I'm learning it too ahaha
Can you give me a more detailed explanation of that binary stuff that you were writing about? I didn't get how it fit with our problem, maybe I've just missed something ^^'
Also if you can find anything about our problem, please post it on this thread!
Thank you

Hi there Guys
I´m total new on Android.Have my SM-T520 since two Weeks know.My last Boyfriend teached me alot into
the Computer-things.BtW, if you think Im writing stupid ... im from Germany LoL ... My english has
rotten a little bit. So sorry ... have merci please with me.
So ... I was told: Every Computer online needs a Firewall.I searched for an APP for my new Tablet ...
... found one, but it want´s a root? Searched for ROOT and find:
androidpulp.blogspot.de/2014/03/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-tab-pro-101
I did everything exactly written ... was very nervous " should I? Or better not? Uhhh ... This WARNINGS
My new sweet Tablet! But I did it !! and it WORKS !!! My biggest Computer-thing I ever done. :laugh: :good:
So, I put this CF-Auto-Root-picassowifi-picassowifixx-smt520.tar.md5 File onto my Tablet.The "Root-Test"
was the installing of the AFWall+ Friewall ... It works! Great ! I rooted my Tab! Alone by myself !!
Told everyone from my Adventure the next Days.
But, I brought the Tab for relaxed surfing on my Sofa? (Couch?) and or streaming Movies from Sites to my
Samsung Smart TV.This SCREEN MIRRORING thing.I tested it a little BEFORE my rooting.I worked great.Now
it breaks up with a "Hardware Error" in the end of the connecting process.
So, searched again for that and found out that this Error came from the Root ... from the "Root-Counter",
I think? Searched again ... TRIANGLE AWAY app was found and installed.When I press RESET FLASH COUNTER
the app told me its resseting.But the counter dont go to zero ?? The last message told me
"... make sure you dont running a custom kernel ?? or custom recovery ..." ??
The TRIANGLE AWAY Flash Counter Status show to me:
Cuurent status:
Counter 1
Binary Custom
Device SM-t520
System Offical
When I put my Tab in this Download Mode? It says "ODIN Mode" itself?
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SM-T520
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Offical
KNOX WARRENTY VOID: 1
AP SWREV: A1
I searched nearly a week ... landing a lot in this community here ... register on SAMMOBILE ...
thought that this File here is original:
sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=32752
Model: SM-T520
Model name: GALAXY TabPRO 10.1 Wi-Fi
Country: Germany
Version: Android 4.4.2
Changelist: 1977750
Build date: Tue, 24 Jun 2014 08:31:35 +0000
Product Code: DBT
PDA: T520XXUANF4
CSC: T520DBTANF1
MODEM: T520XXUANF4
But ... the File CF-Auto-Root-picassowifi ... was 21 MB big the File on SamMobile is 1,2 GB!! big.
I think I not right here.Im totaly confused now.Want to do this thing alone with no help from my Workmates.
It starts so good but now Im out of order.
ROM, Kernel, Firmware, Recovery ... all that I found with Google ?? I think I reached my Limit here.
SO, the Binary is the thing to do? Or ?? Is that a Kernel, ROM, Firmware or Recovery ??? This thing must be
original? Original to be able to reset the Counter to Zero and can do that SCREEN MIORRORING again?
My wish would be:
Keep the Root and the Firewall and also put the Counter to zero to be able to see the picture of my Tab on
my Samsung TV again.
PLEASE ... what kind of File do I need now?What I have to do with that?Is it possible to keep Firewall working
and ScreenMirroring?
Please does someone of you have a LINK that help me? What is a BINARY, please?
I THANK YOU all for reading my looong Story :good::good: Maybe someone knows what I have do do?
Greeting from Germany
Your Nina
too loong ? XD
Hmmmm .... to put it in short ...
Is it possible to have a rooted Tab AND use the
Samsung ScreenMirroring Funktion?
Please, how can I replace the custom BINARY with a stock Binary that
runs with my rooted system?
A Link or a good Searchword for Mrs.Google would help me so much.
Have a nice Evening

based on my experience with my other Smasung phones, yes it should work, as long as you are still running Stock firmware.

Thank you for your Answering
So,it may possible to keep root and firewall AND
use the screen-mirroring?
My problem is, what file do i need for that?
LoL ... I dont know the exactly name of and sadly l cant find out what kind of File?
A kernel, a firmware, a recovery or a rom?
I need a binary right? Or not?
What is a binary ... a rom kernel firmware or recovery?
I searched for hours now but cound find a Answer. :crying:
So, you mean I need a Firmware?
Please, do you have a Link? For the file and a how to do,maybe?
The Data is posted in my looong Story in my first post.
It starts so well and ended in a mission impossible for me now.
I thought someone here did it before with a sm-t520 10.0 pro tab.
Maybe ??
Have a Nice Day

1. Unfortunately, the Knox counter cannot be reset at this time.
2. If you have not installed any recovery, or other ROMs, Kernel, then you are running STOCK firmware.
3. Have you tried to reset your device and see if mirroring works? This is what I did with my S4 before and it worked, but I don't really know with the Tab pro because i have not rooted it as I want to use Knox.
4. If after you have reset your device, and screen mirroring does not work, try to download a STOCk firmware from www.samfirmware.com or www.samsung-updates.com and flash it to your device using ODIN - this is run on your COMPUTER with your Tab pro connected via USB cable. This will UNROOT your device. Then try to use screen mirroring again and see if it works. If screen mirroring works, then it means you can't root your devic if you want to use screen mirroring.
5. There are free firewalls on google play, but I have not used any of them so i cannot comment which one is the best.
I suggest before you make changes to your Tab Pro from now on, go and read more about rooting, flashing ROMs, flashing RECOVERY... it is best NOT to RUSH what you want to do as an ERROR on your part might cause more problems.
a lot of THANKS

Thank you !
I will test that RESET with TriangleAway and then test ScreenMirroring this afternoon. Nice Idea :good: Hope it works.
I only put CF-Auto-Root-picassowifi-picassowifixx-smt520.tar.md5 one Time to my Tablet and it was the only
thing I put on with Odin.
My Problem with this Firmware-Download-Sites samfirmwar is, that my File:
Model: SM-T520 PDA: T520XXUANF4
(I cant put a Link in my Postings)
is too big!! It´s 1,2GB big and the File i did (CF-Auto-Root-picassowifi-picassowifixx-smt520.tar.md5) is only
21MB.Could that be right?? My only nonStock-File on my Tab is the BINARY, as TriangleAway and
the Download Page said.
I read a lot last two weeks ... i looked for me like theres no solution at that Time.
Couldn't find a Posting like "rooted SM-T520 WITH SreenMirroring"
Maybe my Tab its to new? Read from Lib-Files that must be changed but not for the SM-T520.
Thanks for your help !! I will test your Point 3 a little later. Hope ...
Have a nice Day

Chainfire doesn't flash a new system. It replaces your recovery, then adds some files to root your existing /system, and then replaces your recovery with a stock version (which may be different than the stock version your started with, but is a Samsung recovery at least).
That's why it is so much smaller.
I'm guessing here because I have not entirely figured out what Samsung has done with their Digital Rights Management stack. But, screen mirroring may have issues because it may require DRM keys (probably hdcp keys) and by tripping Knox it may be going from DRM level 1 for which it has keys to DRM level 3 for which the device may not have usable keys.
I agree with the recommendation to try using Odin to undo everything except tripping the Knox counter. That's your best shot.

Sounds like you are much into it.
But I understand nearly half what you write about DRM and so. But THANKS for your Time.
Because of you I know now why it is so big.
I started the 1.2GB Download at the End of my last Posting ... still 6 hours left :silly: to finish. 30kb sec
So, when Download is ready and I put it with Odin on my Pad ... is the complete System new then?
The Binary is then Stock or offical and I can put the Counter with TriangleAway to zero?
Read this morning that this wont go because its now Hardware based. a fuse or so.
So I do the big File on my Pad to get the complete stock System back and the ScreenMirroring option running?
Sorry for my stupid ... I read really a lot ... but its also a lot of "ways" and "to do" written out there.
The Test resetting with TriangleAway and test the ScreenMirroring didn't worked here.
The Pad is scanning long Time but couldn't find the TV.Yes ... it´s in the allowed List in Menu.
Did the same as before the root.But the Idea was good.
In all the "how to root" Sites in the Internet should written that some functions wound´t work after root as Warning ... ... maybe ... special for rooters like me
I read we can unroot the Pad with SU.Looked in the Menu ... there´s really a Point called unroot.
But that wound´t bring ScreenMirroring back or? Sounds to easy, or?
So, see you next Time
Bye for now your Nina

totally agree
i think our german girl must have stuffed something up during flashing
flash back it to the original stock rom using odin and keep it as unrooted. my wife has an unrooted p600 and to honest, i cant see any point to root her device at all. based on what she or probably this girl wants to use it for.
Hi guys,
hope you can help me with a nasty little problem ..
I got a Chinese Note 2 (GT-N7100_CHN_CHN) from my father in law - he bought a Note 4 just recently. The phone is virtually not usable in Europe, as no Google support is implemented (mail, G+, Maps) and there is no access to the regular Playstore. Also, the only Android available is 4.1.
So I tried to flash a new Firmware (and yes, I'm a noob), and that's were the problems began. I've downloaded this ROM: N7100XXUFNE1_N7100DBTFNE1_N7100XXUFND3_HOME.tar.md5 which is - as far as I could figure out - a more or less "factory" version of a German Android 4.4 ROM. For whatever reason, I was unable to flash it using Odin (I tried several drivers, cables, computers (all Win7/64), disabled virus scan .. no way to get Odin 3.09 to work. It recognizes the phone, but aborts the flash process immediately with just a "1 processes failed" error.
After reading a bit here, I tried to root the phone using Saferoot (worked perfectly), loaded MobileOdin and this ROM to the phone and did the flashing there. This works fine, the phone starts, it has a German interface, is running KitKat .. great. Only issue: The WiFi does not work. As I figured out from this forum, I need to install either a WiFi patch or a new Bootloader (I've downloaded BL_N7100XXUEMJ5_1903221_REV04_user_low_ship.tar.md5 - hope that's the right one).
The problem now is:
Saferoot fails to root the Android 4.4 version - so no root access
MobileOdin does not work without root (and I don't know whether it would be able to flash a bootloader)
Odin 3.09 still does not work with the device
I tried Heimdall, but it does not accept the .md5 files for Odin and I could not find any ROMs in the right format
So I'm running out of ideas what else to try. Could you give me a hint what to to do?
Many thanks,
Scooby
You are saying the phone is chinese and doesn't have support from Google so there is clearly not original phone.
Samsung has not produced that phone so it means the hardware parts are not from samsung and the ROM you are flashing can't be installed.
I read you want to root but I think it is already rooted(try with the app "root checker")
You can't do much with that phone.
Sorry

Hi Manuel,
it's definitely a original Samsung device. Google is simply (virtually) not available in China, so they install a slightly modified Android that points to a local Samsung store instead of playstore, G+ and Maps is not pre-installed ..
As written above, I was able to root it as long as the original Android 4.1.x was installed and I have successfully flashed the new german Kitkat ROM. "Only" Problem right now is that I can't get Odin to work and due to that I can not install the Wifi fix or new Bootloader. And ideas on that?
Thanks

Hello All,
I have this samsung galaxy note 2 locked with telus canada. Right now its stuck on samsung logo screen.
1) I have tried factory reset but i cannot enter that menu , its just keep on coming back to samsung logo.
I have tried to put it in download mode and tried stock rom with ODIN but it shows failed after few seconds
2) i have tried to install TWRP on it and tried to wipe thru that but same problem, right now its showing no OS installed in it
3) I tried to bring it to stock after putting stock rom in a SD card and tried it access SD card from TWRP but its not recognizing SD card, I have tried to replace sim card+ sd card tray on motherboard just to rule out if there is any hardware issue
4) I have tried to mount SD card thru TWRP but its keep on coming back with lots of error messages ( picture attached)
5) tried advanced wipe in TWRP but lot of error messages again ( picture attached)
I am trying to find a rescue firmware or emergency firmware for samsung galaxy note 2 i317M , if any body know a reliable link please let me know or any other advice will be appreciated .
if you need any other information from my side please let me know
Thanks in advance
What is the model of the note 2 as that may help others in finding a solution to the problems that you are facing with your note 2
Same problem happened to me after 2/3 days after mounting the "rom DN4". Now I connect it to my computer and is easily recognized by Odin but I try to install the original firmware, the process is successful but in reality nothing happens. As if it would record more changes !!!! I hope we can help !! I include photos of recovery !!!!

Hello ,
I thing the best should be :
Download the original rom from SamMobile.
Install it with odin PC
Root the rom
After, if you want , install a custom rom.
I hope that can help you.
It's something that I thought I'd do, but as I wrote, even if the writing process through Odin is reported as successful by both Odin that the phone itself with the advancement of the bar, actually it is not !! I tried to install both original rom 4.1 is 4.4, different bootloader and recovery original but nothing to do !! I hope you have other solutions to help us. Thanks in advance !!!

It's your rom a full wipe rom ?
Have you try with an other version of Odin ? .I had a problem with Odin PC 3.09 but it worked with Odin PC 3.07.
No, the rom was not full wipe. Unfortunately however through Ricovery wipe function does not work as per attached photos. Basically it is as if the phone would not see more memories, in fact marks 0 mb available, but this gives me hope that it's a problem of folder and fs / partitions corrupt, because removing the sd 64gb I filled in the computer works fine again! ! But how to solve it ???? I tried different versions of Odin from 3 to 3:09 !!!
Sorry cardone , no offence , please start your own thread , as you are confusing everything here , I started this thread and nobody is replying to my questions here
Ok, I'm sorry, but I thought that having the same problem or answer me or you do not change !! Anyway I open another 3d. Until next time !!

Hi,
have you try to install an original Samsung rom with Odin PC ?
It's possible TWRP doesn't work well if your phone are locked =Can another user confirme that ?

Finally, after you've tried everything and more without solving the problem I took it in for service. They told me that if it's a software problem (that has corrupted the partition) to others happened like that, is not to cost more than € 20 .......
I hope so !!! Then you update !!

Perhaps you can try flashing twrp recovery again to see if it picks up SD card.
Try flashing a split firmware with re partition enabled and a pit file for your particular model .
If same problem persists then it might be emmc ic problem ( a hardware issue and you need to get it replaced ).
Thanks Sachin , could you please let me know what is the difference between split firmware and stock firmware ? where can i find split firmware for this particular model ?
I am not worrying too much about bricking this phone anyways coz i have tried every other option available here and its already semi bricked now. i would really appreciate if i can make it work anyways. I posted this post almost 2 weeks ago so i guess most of other readers are out of ideas too now. so i would like to go for pit file option now. Please help me in this i have never tried this option before.

Split firmware means separate files for ap, cp, csc, bootloader in odin instead of single file in ap. U have to search for it. And also for pit file for your model.
Then flash it using odin with pit file also selected and re partition enabled.
If this do not solve problem. Then its emmc issue. Get it replaced.

Then flash it using odin with pit file also selected and re partition enabled.
If this do not solve problem. Then its emmc issue. Get it replaced.

Any Help Sachin , Could you please help me to find separate files for this model ?
So...What happens is that I wanted to install a rom to my J200M cellphone and only found one of the SamsungFirmware page [the rom was 7.0] and well, I was trying to install it by odin and it worked because the box that said " Pass "but when the phone was restarted it had not been installed ... it had the same version as before, it had not even been formatted ... so how can I fix this? because I also tried for TWRP but I did not read the zip file so I do not know what to do please help me.
PD: Im from Chile :3
Hello everyone, I decided to root my phone today. First I enabled OEM unlock and then installed TWRP, no problems with that. Then I tried to install CF autoroot through recovery and everything seemed fine. When I tried to boot up my phone it said something like integrity check failed and I had to do a factory reset to be able to even start the phone. I did not do that but tried to install official samsung oreo firmware through odin but it won't install, just fails. Then i got other error message saying "an error occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software". The only thing I can do now is enter download mode and nothing else but odin does not let me flash anything. I'm desperate here so any suggestion would be great. Model is SM A-320FL btw. Sorry for my english and lengthy post

What kind of error do you get in Odin?
Is it the one that says something like "SW Rev. check fail"?
If so than for me it worked to flash the bootloader and modem of Oreo and the after that i reinstalled the OS without any problems.
First it was just a red fail for BL, CSC and those other things and later it just won't even start. When I try to install TWRP it goes to half and stays there. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Was your device from a carrier, if so, try to flash the firmware that your device came with. If you can't solve this, PM me, so that we can try to resolve this on Telegram, Discord etc. :highfive:

Thank you for the reply, I don't think it was from carrier, when I tried to flash firmware I downloaded latest firmware from my current carrier so I think that shouldn't be a problem. I'll contact you tomorrow because i'm just too tired now. And update, I can flash TWRP now if that is of any help.
It is solved now, thanks everyone for your help

Hi. Glad to see you got this sorted, but it may be useful for other users to see what you did to resolve this.
Yes, how did you solved that.
Looking at two A320F I found one difference:
One has AP SWREV B:2 K:0 S:0
the other one (that makes trouble): AP SWREV B:3 K:1 S:1
What exactly does it mean.
Flashing with Odin gave me erros (on device, Odin just say "failed") depending on flashing BL (SW Rev Check failed )Bootlader Device: 3, binary: 2 , while flashing AP gives Kernel Rev check fail.
So, how to go on? I was able to flash TWRP, but not Stock (neither an old 6.0 nor 8.0).
Ok, solved it. Flashing stock will probably only work to same or newer versions, not for downgrade (at least not without any special tricks that I don't know).
After downloading the latest stock FW , odin passed.
Now I still have the problem, that I can't transfer data partion from one A3 to another one.

My first error was that I downloaded wrong firmware for my phone and because of that odin gave me errors. Second error was that I tried to wipe data through advanced wipe, but I needed to format it by pressing format data button. After doing that I was able to flash official stock ROM, install TWRP and root my phone. User MartinYTCZ helped me greatly with this, big thanks to him again. :victory:

Can't you backup your internal storage on PC or SD card, contacts, messages, phone calls, settings on samsung account and apps and data with titanium backup? When I flashed stock ROM I lost all data from my phone so be careful with that.
