Hi, I just need your model number (GT-P311* or GT-P3100) please so that I can locate the proper firmware for your device.

Hey there, I'm not OP but I'm also having some issues and trying to flash the original firmware to get back to stock. I've got the GT-P3110 in US. Been looking around for the firmware but any links I've been finding to stock were dead links, or the flash failed in Odin

P3110 or P3113? Usually the ones in the US are P3113, but ROM devs make the P3110 ROMs work on P3113. It is stamped on the back panel of your tab.

Oh wow sorry my mistake, didn't even realize it had it in such tiny font on the bottom. Yeah it's GT-P3113TS. I'd seen P3110 in the about tablet before I'd borked it, but makes sense with the devs making the roms work on the P3113. Gonna try seeing if I can find the correct firmware download now xD

Here is the stock Odin flashable firmware for the P3113. (can also be flashed with Heimdall if on Linux or Mac)
STANDARD DISCLAIMERS APPLY. FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
SamMobile
or
samsung-updates
There is a download like for Odin on the SamMobile page. It should work whether you get it from SamMobile or samsung-updates.
I know they say Canada, but they should work. Just change the language on the setup screen to English United States.

Thanks ended up finding a similar download, and was able to get it restored after flashing and wiping data/cache so it would stop bootlooping. Thanks for all your help!

thats one thing i havent seen since i jumped to this samsung device, radio roms. I assume then that its possible just yet to be done as its so new?
Anyone tried this out yet? Just wondering what the differences are...? And what does "unlocked for gsm/3g/lte toggle" mean? The stock Rogers rom already has this ability to toggle between LTE/GSM/HSPA... Also mine came stock with I727RUXKJ7....
I'm kinda confused here...

If you're using Windows, just pull the system.img.ext4 out with winRAR, and use something like Ext2explore to open the system.img.ext4 file.

(keeps showing big S and under it says samsung galaxy SII lte)
quick reply/fix would be appreciated thank you : )

i fixed it by going into recovery mode (hold up and down volume keys and power button) and then i cleared the cache and did a factory reset
I assume this ROM is not rooted?
Hey OP could you repost the link. Its not working..

usually these releases are stock ROMS - meaning no root.

[SOLUTION] Successful flash of leaked NA6 ROM on Hong Kong 32g N9005

The problem was that Hong Kong Note 3 has a different partition structure for some reason and thus when trying to write the system partition, we got the infamous 'invalid ext4 image' error. I tried extracting the pit from the CSC file and partition with it, but it didn't work. Even tried it with heimdall. Still didn't work. But after a lot of reading, experimenting, and praying, I tried this.
1. Download leaked ROM from here: Terafile; Google Docs; Torrent; Storage Cow
2. Extract the 4 files.
3. Fire up Odin 3.09 and put the phone in download mode.
4. Load ONLY CSC file in Odin. (It contains the pit we need)
5. Make sure Re-partition is unchecked.
6. Flash it.
7. Reboot to Download mode.
8. Flash all 4 files normally.
9. Reboot to Kitkat.
10. Enjoy.
This worked for me. Thanks!

This will only work on 32 gb or 64 gb devices. The 16 gb n9005 needs a different pit file which is not provided for any ROM other than the Hong Kong roms. For some reason, Samsung decided that Hong Kong phones should have a different partition table than the rest of the world.
Yeah I have the 32gb model.

There is no 16gb version. You will have to either wait for the official Hong Kong ROM or else go for a custom ROM.

You can try flashing the exynos Kitkat which was released yesterday.
But I haven't played around with the N900. I don't know if it will have the same 'invalid ext4 image' error when flashing a non Hong Kong ROM on a HK device. Yours is HK, I think.

You bought your phone through an authorized dealer?
I am just asking cause as far as I remember, the phones starting from 'Z' are from Hong Kong.
If you bought it through an authorized dealer, it should be a normal Indian Note 3, in which case you can flash the kitkat ROM.
And yes, SM-N900 and N9000 are the same.

Don't worry about it. This community is built to help.
Can you tell me where you bought your phone from?
To put it in download mode-
1. Switch off the phone.
2. Hold Volume Down+Home+Power.
3. Keep holding till you see a warning.
4. Press Volume Up.
But make sure you flash the correct ROM to your phone. A wrong ROM will brick your phone.
Note 3 is not a very noob friendly device to flash.
sir,
i not bought. actually someone gifted me. but i think that he makes me fooles.

It says your android version is 4.4, which is kitkat. But no such version was released by Samsung. Especially as early as September.
A search of 'ZCUBMI5' on google brings up many Chinese links with reference to N9006 (which as far as memory serves is a Note 3 clone).
I would suggest that you stay put and not tinker with your device.

SGH-I337M (TELUS) Update 5.0.1 is out

http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/45755/I337MVLUGOC4_I337MOYAGOC4_TLS/
Before I update my phone, I would like to know if I will be able to use odin to go back to 4.4.2 just in case... thanks
It's not just Telus. Looks like everyone except Rogers has updates available on sammobile.
Any fast download options that are free? Faster than 50 kb/s.
A new version of 4.4.2 just got released too after the 5.0.1 update for all carriers ...
maybe 5.0.1 has bugs ...
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SGH-I337M/
Anyone install it ota yet? Is it still multicsc like usual? Does the *#272*IMEI# trick still work?
Lollipop 5.01 update
Will the CF-Auto Root for Canadian models work for this one?
Was able to install via ODIN, upgraded to 5.01, and was able to downgrade back to 4.4.2 via ODIN as well. CF-Auto-root works fine for 5.0.1. It has multi-csc as well.
I was on Goldeneye 51 and decided to Odin the Bell OC4 release in order to update the modem and provide a solid firmware base for Lollipop. I did not find that my version of CF root worked but did re-root by using Odin to flash Philz recovery and then flashing a zip for SuperuserSU 2.4.6 once the custom recovery was in place.
Now I shall wait for the next version of Goldeneye and install after using the vanilla version of the firmware while waiting.
Can you guys please upload to a better file server like Mega? I just spent 7 hours getting 80% from Rapidgator and then it stalled and died.
Anyone knows if the OTA update erase anything on the phone or it just kinda do a ''dirty flash''. I imagine it wouldn't do anything to the sd card but will the data on the device storage be affected?
Galaxy S4 completly stock on Koodo!
Thanks!

You need to update through odin.
Download odin to your pc.
Then go here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/tm...eral/stock-n920t-stock-n920tuvu4dpk6-t3518252 and download the firmware.
Put your phone in dl mode (when off, press vol down, home, and power)
Open odin, plug in phone while in dl mode
Click on AP and select the .tar file you downloaded above
Run and your golden!

The steps are to flash the unlocked S8+ firmware to your sprint device. The unlocked S8+ firmware has no bloat. You can always reinstall the sprint firmware back when you are returning your device (I think it's as easy as that)

They didnt have any steps there. If im not wrong i should download the latest firmware from sammobile and flash this too at the same time with odin?

I use updato.com these are the steps. Use the Odin provided from the Post.

That is the most recent update. It's for the S8+ if you have the S8 I think it's Sm-g950u1. Not so sure. XAA is the unlocked firmware

No it's not... I'm sure you have to but unlocked firmware is AQH3 and for you to get to beta I'm sure you needed to move to the most recent update. It could work it could not. I'm sure the modified Odin will work but again could be wrong.
