I'm trying to install TWRP onto my Note 3.
Unfortunately you can no longer download goo manager. So I'm trying to use the Odin option, but i don't know what .tar file to use. I would list the site but I'm new to posting on XDA so i can't post websites, but if you know or have the .tar file pls message me.
My phone is a Samsung Note 3 US T-Mobile
Modal # SM-T900T
Android Version: 4.4.2
If anyone can give me another method for getting TWRP on my phone or what .tar file to use, i would greatly appreciate it.
Keep in mind I'm very new to this so the simpler you explain it the better it looks for me, TY.

Help! Infected Tab2 - Need stock firmware .zip for SPH-P500
This is my first post. I hope that brings me some luck!
I bought two SPH-P500's from Tiger direct when they were on sale, one for me and one for my wife. Unfortunately, hers got infected by something that I have not been able to eliminate via resets or reloads with the standard tools. I have tried Odin and Heimdahl without success. Foolish me rooted the device but did NOT replace the bootloader I can't load anything but a "signed" zip file expected by the stock system. Unfortunately, the infected device is now no longer rooted as my wife reloaded things and blew away the original
I've also tried a number of obscure things like looking at the cache device/partition to see if there was a .zip left there from the last update, but all that was there was a small text file.
What I need is *ANY* legitimate >> signed zip << firmware file for this model device so I can try an adb sideload. I know there aren't many folks using this device, but was hoping maybe someone might take pity on my plight.
Any other suggestions also appreciated!
Just for the record, the malware continuously plays a short tune and refuses to be killed off. It uses up so much of the CPU that one cannot do much of anything...
here the firmware

I'm also looking for any usable rom apart from stock. I have an sph-p500 which is technically the same as sgh-i497 but found no roms at all (apart from the stock rom). any help appreciated. all rom links are broken. I know the device is pretty old but I don't want to shred it.

try using a pit file with odin. im thinking it wouldnt have an error if you had the pit file.
to answer your question "what have i done?" it would seem, you changed things you didnt understand and didnt realize the consequences, resulting in a big @SS mess
dont do that
Like I said odin won't work because of unexpected partition layout.
I'm fully aware of the consequences however I will be the recipient
Of a Samsung galaxy note 4 next week so I was just experimenting
And I will definitely not be rooting that

ill just assume you dont know what a pit file is, and ill move on. good luck!
No need to assume, I'll be honest I've no idea what a pit file is or how to use one
Etc etc, however I'd be interested to learn if you can give me the basics, everybody has to start somewhere and the only way to progress is if people share the knowledge,
So what do you know that can help me??

go to your devices forum where the return to stock post is, and see if there is a pit file for whatever version you have. if not, try a search for pit over your general and q&a forums. im sure you will find some, just need to match them to the stock files.
on odin, there is a pit box, check it and link your pit file.
I'd just like to let you know I have managed to sort my phone out
I got a clockwork mod ,and now I'm using something called CyanogenMod
I'm not quite sure how I have managed to achieve this but I have my WiFi connected
to my phone again, Odin is installed and working with no unexpected partition layout
Problems, however my SD card won't mount and I can't seem to get Google playstore
But for now its a small price to pay considering where I was this afternoon. I think I've done well
Hello I am really wanting to put a kernel on my phone but I just switched to an android phone from a iphone and it's so confusing to me. The kernel I want to install is the Hacker kernel. I have installed odin and i have downloaded the files but I don't know where to go from there. I mean... I tired to look for the .tar file in the zip I downloaded and it's no where to be found. I have the Galaxy s6 SM G920P sprint variant on 5.1.1 Lollipop. I don't even know how to flash :/ Please help me thanks in advanced

Hi and welcome to XDA.
Listen to the developer http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65314272&postcount=75
Zip files are meant to be flashed in twrp just like all custom roms and mods that you find.
Hello Forum,
I am in desperate need of rooting my old Galaxy Express Prime 2 (SM-J327a), because I accidentally deleted all of my images. I cannot find a .tar file to recover the device. I checked TWRP's site, and they don't have a file to support this device yet. Does anyone know another way to root this device, or where I can find a .tar file to use with Odin? I have tried virtually all root apps and programs.
Thank you,
Mosaic Owl
I would like to second this request (though I am not near as desperate). Has anyone tried using the Samsung one click root method for this phone?
Link to modded Odin to skip SHA256

I tried loading up One Click Root on my laptop and it said it couldn't find its servers. I also tried flashing twrp for a similar Boost phone, (SM-J327p) knowing there was a risk of bricking it. My J327a was free and I plan to stick with my Moto, so I could afford to risk it, plus I've always been able to un brick anything from graphics cards to phones and game systems.
Anyway, Odin 3.12 gets a few steps into the twrp install, but before it actually begins to install, an error pops up that says "SHA256 is invalid". I searched for a couple of hours, and all I can come up with is that AT&T put an extra check in there to see where the files were coming from, and attempting to install custom recovery will cause this error. A modified Odin was released to skip this check on an older phone, but I could not find a working link to it.
That's what I came here for: a link to the modified Odin that will allow me to install TWRP without that check. If it's posted, DO NOT try flashing the wrong twrp recovery if you can't afford having it bricked for a while like I can.
I guess you would need to start with an eng bootloader that will let your phone boot then work on a tethered root... I'm still looking for binary 2 with rev 2 combination file without luck, all I need is to extract the boot and see if I can reset lock pattern. I tried google account but it does not have the option to lock-relock screen anymore. It's my nephew's phone and my daughter messed it up. I can login the google account and make it ring and locate it but can't disable the pattern. He has no backup of this phone...
Have any one make it done?

I think this is what you're looking for- you'll have to copy and paste into your browser. "https://samsung-firmware.org/download/SM-J327P__/092p/VMU/J327PVPU3AQL3/J327PSPT3AQL3/"

Well thank you for that but dose the zip file i am downloading have the stock recovery?
Then it would be no Problem just downloading this and adding it.
Edit: This stock firmware dose have the stock recovery dosen't it ???
Well i would also like to remove twrp because i can't find the needed zip files in order to root my device twrp failed me in that retrospect.
Plus now i am wondering what use it could have when stock recovery is not that bad actually.
Very disappointed i did all of this in hopes of rooting this phone and i voided my 1 year warranty also when i flashed it my phone was very unstable i had to wipe it.And all i got was nothing but atleast the phone still works.:good:
