Need some help with upgrading to the BeanStalk KitKat 4.4.2 - Samsung Infuse 4G

I've tried to upgrade firmware to BeanStalk Build 4.4.205 Kitkat version. in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2091900
I'm running on UCLB3 Gingerbread 2.6 with root and not the stock firmware. as stated on above dev's post. I came back to GB stock with "Jscotts Odin back to stock". In the first phone start-up, occurred a rainbow distortion. I was able to get in to the desktop by pressing home button. Then I Installed CWM recovery latest version. Tried to boot in to the CWM recovery, but rainbow distortion came again. Then boots up normally to desktop. Tried again and again, no luck. rainbow distortion not letting do a boot in to the recovery. Can anyone please help ? Thanks!

You need to flash the Gingerbread bootloader with Odin.

Help please! Root

Hi guys, I just got a new Note. I was able to flash CWM Recovery using odin. After this, I flashed the stock recovery and booted it up. I tried updating the software via OTA, but after it reboots trying to update, it says update failed. It fails at 24% when the android symbol comes up after booting
Please help me
no help yet??
I'd bet $100 you didn't reset flash counter before flashing stock recovery....
Agree.
U have to reset counter, flash back stock recovery.
OTA is urs.
Sent from N7105, at the corner of this rounded earth.
Most curious. AFAIK, OTA's will fail without stock recovery.
It seems the OTA's check for root or altered rom files, this has been my experience anyway, and if found to have been altered fails....

SCH-R530u issue

Hi.
Well I have a U.S. Cellular SCH-R530 I received from a friend. He already upgraded to 4.3 OTA and I figured I would try to root the phone so I could install custom roms. I downloaded Odin and downloaded cwm 6.0.4.5. I put the phone in download mode and tried flashing cwm.. Well Odin failed, I cannot boot back into the Android OS and I have the screen with the message: "firmware upgrade encountered an issue, etc.". I pulled the battery and put the phone in download mode and I have try flashing cwm again, flashing USCC stock rom and I still get a fail in Odin 3.07 & 3.09. I did use PDA or AP in Odin when I tried to flash both the cwm and the stock 4.3 rom. At this point, I'm trying to figure out how to get the s3 working again.
Nevermind fixed my issue. Please delete thread.

[Q] n8010 - how to get back to stock after flashing the n8000 4.4.2 leak ?

I flashed my stock unrooted n8010 with the n8000 leak files using odin, I did not used the modem. All good and everything working.
Now I want to get back to stock n8010 jb. When in download mode the device apears like n8000 and odin is not able to flash the stock n8010 firmware.
I installed twrp and rooted, modified buildprop to apear like n8010 and tried to flash a custom rom for n8010, no luck, I get a message that the rom is for n8010 and to try a rom for my device.
How can I trick twrp or odin to make them flash n8010 fw/rom ?
I don't have a nandroid backup,
Edit : I managed to flash 4.0.4 with odin (N8010XXALGC_N8010OXXALG4_COA). After the flash it was stuck at samsung logo, I rebooted in recovery (power+volume up, release only power at samsung...) and wiped cache, wiped data and reset. Now the device booted with android 4.0.4 and I'm downloading a 568.29 MB update. I'll see what happends next...
The goal is to get back to stock jb, official (with triangle away I gues)
Edit: I updated to JB, but when in download mode the device is still N8000, so the problem is still not solved.

What version of Odin are you using ?Did you try to remove micro SD and full erase you tablets internal memory card? And why not 4.1.2 you install and not 4.0.4?
Because 4.1.2 gives me error, tried 3 versions of Odin: 3.04, 3.09, and 1.85. Tried 4.1.2 from 3 different sources to avoid a bad download. I can only flash 4.0.4, android shows me n8010 but in download mode is still n8000. I have no idea why, I just can't get rid of the n8000 in download mode.
Maybe I need to flash separate files, just like I did with 4.4.2, bootloader. Ap , csc but I don't know where to get those files for 4.1.2, I only have .tar.md5 files.
I attached a ss with odin eror when trying to flash stock 4.1.2

Did you have success installing the bootloader of the leak kitkat rom? Cause mine failed always, the AP file is the 1 working on me only. I have downloaded this TAR_MD5_PACKAGER here( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42393470&postcount=2 ) that I'm using to repack the stock and using 7zip to extract the content of the .tar.md5 files, maybe you can try repacking it seperately using this 2 program. And try to install it using Odin( I'm using Odin 1.85). By the way you can still install custom 4.1.2 rom's right, specifically for 8010 ? Lastly why do you wanna go back to stock 4.1.2 do you have problem with the leak rom?
P.S. Did you format your internal memory as I suggested? Cause once I install back to 4.1.2 have error before and have to install twice the rom( that is according to my experience which some think its not relate to installing error).maybe you can try to format all from the system to the internal memory via CWM recovery /mount section.Then try to install again and remove the SD card too.
I had no problems with the kit Kat files, flashed at the same time bl, csc and ap (no modem). I used odin 3.09. I managed to get back to 4.1.2 by flashing stock 4.0.4 then using OTA (im surprised it worked) . Someone else flashed directly 4.1.2 with mobile odin and worked, but with odin from pc you get an error.
The problem is that in download mode appears like n8000; hopefully, when official kk for n8010 is out we'll be able to fix that.

Glad you manage to resolve some of your problem.Plese ignore my post above your's then.
The problem is not solved lol. I just gave up for the moment. It's a miracle that I didn't bricked the damn thing today
I'll stay with a 4.1.2 stock n8010 fw that is using an n8000 4.4.2 bootloader. Sexy
Sent from my GT-N8010 using Tapatalk
Well from everything I've read it seems the problem is that when we flashed the kitkat leak, flashing the bootloader is what allowed us to flash n8000 over our n8010. This could be why when we flash back using odin we get the error cause the bootloader isn't being flashed too so it's trying to flash n8010 onto what it reads as n8000. It seems that there are only a few solutions. 1we need to find a n8010 bootloader file which so far seems to be impossible to find. 2you can flash an original n8010 cmw or twrp back up it will return you to 4.1.2 n8010 but the bootloader will still be n8000. If this option isn't available to you then you can try 3 download a custom rom I have the darkmans customers stock as a backup and it still works going back to simple stock n 8010 but again the bootloader stays as n8000...
Basically until we can get an n8010 bootloader we are stuck with it...
I even rooted the 4.4.2 leak and tried to flash a custom 4.4.2 made for n8010 and did not let me (based on the same leak i think, so the same bootloader) and failed, twrp sees the device as n8000 and did not allowed me to use n8010 rom.

I think I read somewhere that twrp can have issues with flashing 4.4.2 roms it needs to be the most up to date version of twrp... I tried cm 11 before and had to change to Cwm. But I went back to twrp and now it works
I used twrp 2.7, I think it's the latest.
Edit:
I reached a binary counter of 118
I used triangle away and reset it, however I'm still stuck with the n8000 4.4.2 bootloader.
N8000 bootloader
Same issue here, stuck on N8000 bootloader on my GT-N8010. After endless research I still can't find any solution but now the thing is, the official 4.4.2 KK is availble for the GT-8010, you guys think this is the solution, because I have read that though updating to the official Rom (via Odin Mobile) because Odin desktop fails, the device would still be stuck on the annoying N8000 bootloader?
Yes, even if you flash the n8010 4.4.2 with mobile Odin you will still have the damn n8000 bootloader.

Any way of downgrading the Bootloader, I've heard of a nandroid backup but I didn't do that before updating, is it possible to find one on the web?
You need a nandroid from a similar device, is possible but not sure if it will solve the problem.

I thought the official Rom would fix this but visibly no. So we don't have a choice of being stuck with the damn N8000 bootloader?
At the moment there is no solution that I know of.

N8010 on N8000 bootloader
Hi guys, isn't there a solution about this yet? I have the exact same problem with the N8000 bootloader, my device is a N8010 16GB from mexico and flashed the leaked N8000 kk stock rom. I will still look for a solution. TKS to all of you.
Mean time solution
Hi Guys, I found a way to flash te new N8010XXUDNE4 on the stuck n8000 bootlader, the bootloader problem remains, but it is possible to flash the n8010 stock rom via mobile odin, I did it and it's fully working, But I flashed a N8010XXUDNE4 customized without sboot.bin so it can be flashed via PC odin too, I'm still not allowed to post links here cause I'm new in forums so if you want the link to that rom let me know how to provide it to you.
Possible solution?
Have a look at my thread, does that look a viable approach?

OTA Stagefright update

I just got my OTA Stagefright update from LMY48B to LMY48I on my N5 hammmerhead. I need some advice from anyone who’s in the know on the best way for me to update.
I’m current on stock L5.1.1 LMY48B rooted, unlocked bootloader with TWRP custom recovery and just one small mod (center clock) and that’s it, all else is stock. I try to update the OTA but it would boot into TWRP and stops. I also try to re-flash the stock recovery but when I try to update OTA it to would also boot into stock recovery with the android guy laying sideways and red question mark and stops. I saw this post and not sure if this will work in my case. http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/help/stagefright-update-lmy48b-lmy48i-t3177268/page2
Do I need to flash the update with ADB or do I need to flash the factory image? any help is most appreciated. Thanks.
Sounds like we are having the same issue except i didn't have any mod, and i have CWM instead of TWRP
The OTA update indeed stops pretty soon, for me it then moves to an "error" screen.
When i try to log into the stock recovery i flashed (by opening the bootloader mode and choosing recovery mode) i get a "No command" screen.
Ota won't work unless you're bone stock. Flash the factory images.

Stuck at Galaxy s6 logo

Hi,
I wanted to install a custom rom but seems like it was unsuccesful.. D: Now i'm stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy S6" logo. I can enter the recovery mode though. Is there a way to fix it?
There's also a message in red which says "recovery is not seandroid enforcing".
Thanks in advance!
*Solved: Flashed the wrong version of twrp. That caused the issue. Flashed the 5.1.1 stock rom problem solved

Here are two separate techniques. First try a factory data reset from recovery. If that fails use odin to restore the stock firmware

Oh wait, just re-readed what i typed. Seems like it rolled back. The problem started after installing the recovery. 1st i rooted it with odin which worked after testing if i had root. Afterwards i installed twrp with odin aswell, rebooted and everything was still working. Then i went to flashify and chose "boot to recovery" which led me to my actual problem.
During the instalation of twrp i din't have any issue, it just said "Pass". So no recovery mode for me
Can i just download the stock rom 5.0 from the forums? I had android 5.1. If not, is there any place to download the stock 5.1 rom? (Sammobile is way too slow)
Also, when i said "i can enter recovery mod though" i meant, download mode.

Download mode is totally different from recovery mode. As long as you can boot into download mode you should install stock 5.0.2 through odin. It will unbrick and unroot

Thank you, downloading right now the stock rom. Also, any clue of what could've failed during the process of the twrp instalation? I installed this version :/

I have no experience with TWRP. All I know about TWRP is it makes flashing zip files easier

You can't go back to 5.0.2 if you took the 5.1.1 update because of the new bootloader also the reason you are stuck on the splash screen was because you started with 5.1.1 and probably used an older version of TWRP use 2.8.7.1 not 2.8.7.0 or anything lower because 2.8.7.1 is the only one that works for 5.1.1 on this new bootloader.
Odin back to 5.1.1 not 5.0.2 and I understand SamMobile is very slow so use this thread it has most firmwares mirrored http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/general/stock-firmware-official-stock-firmware-t3086387

Just in case i downloaded both. So i just have to reflash 5.1.1 and use TWRP 2.8.7.1 right? Welp, just noticed by checking my downloads that i downloaded the 2.8.6.0, now everything makes sense. Going to go back to stock and do all the procedure once again. I'll keep in touch!

OK, correct flash 2.8.7.1 and flash to 5.1.1 but if you go back to 5.0.2 then you will brick your phone also tip when flashing custom roms use unikernel or some kind of custom kernel because sometimes it won't boot also you will have this same problem if you flash a rom based on 5.0.2
