[Completed] The insanity of trying to download a stock rom. - XDA Assist

I have been trying for days to download a stock rom for my sph-l720t. All download sites are full of ads, spam and viruses. The sammobile.com links don't work and the download server is timing out.
Why don't we make a concerted effort to get these firmware files on bittorrent so they are available to everybody with out having to pay a premium to download them?

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. See this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2621862 I think it's what you're looking for.

Hi SGR users,
If anyone mirrored stock firmware [XWLA4] Share the link here.Because Hotfile speed is very slow !!
I want the stock new firmware only !!
I will be making a beautiful rom for you soon.
thanks guys !!
By the way the I don't have this device I am asking here only for development.
buddy search before posting new threads and btw u can ask this question at roms and mods FAQs section also, there is no need to start a whole new thread for this questions.
if u r not satisfied with speed of hotlink (yes they give very very low speed to free users) u can use checkfus fw downloader. it delivers best speeds.
http://fus.nanzen.se/
on this website u can find downloader app (for windows), hidservers and product ids. by using this app u can download any samsung stock firmware.
checkfus is also available as android app.

Hi, I am looking for a stock ROM of Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 LTE (SHV-E230L).

Just as the title says. My device has been bricked, unlike any other Samsung devices, I cannot find any links to download a stock firmware for it. It's almost been half a year I'm searching with no luck, even Sammobile I can't find one and any links I've searched on Google are broken. Shame it's just lying around and I can't use it. A working link for free download and any other method to fix my device is appreciated.
Thank you.

I did that a long time ago as I said on my message above and I did again today. Some links are broken including hotfile.com and other results on Google. Others require payment online to be able to download but I think those are scams and I don't know how to do online transactions like credit card payments since I don't have one. I am looking for a link which I can download a stock firmware of SHV-E230L for free like all firmwares on Sammobile or also any methods to fix this bricked device besides flasing it.

For starters check whether the tablet enters into recovery mode. If not - no firmware does not help, you must contact the Service Center (or the trash). A firmware try looking for "KIES_HOME_E230LKLUAMG2_E230LLGTALI1_1220323_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5" or "KIES_HOME_E230LKLAMA3_E230LLGTALI1_887051_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5"- much in the Chinese resources. In my Yandex.Disk I put the firmware from hire, but I somehow did not understand that for the file extension is "egg" (I renamed to zip, but didn't become clearer more out). And there's a magnet-link torrent, but I feel that the non-operating: https://yadi.sk/d/Qt98o5XHnx9vk At least, I have not downloaded.

As long as I can find a way to extract it's worth a shot. Thanks.

Official Stock ROM Grabbed from Samsung SmartSwitch for SM-G935W8 RWC

Introduction:
My name as you may be able to tell is Francesco, and I am a long time user of the Samsung Galaxy S Series Devices. My current device is the SM-G935W8. I have just requested Developer Access on Android File Host so I can give access to everyone for the Stock Firmware for the SM-G935W8 of which I grabbed from Samsung SmartSwitch on Windows. I am an experienced programmer in the Languages C# and Java. I have made a few personal apps that aren't even worth mentioning.
Goal:
My Goal is to contribute and dedicate myself to the Canadian Users because I have noticed the lack of support towards them. I am currently working on a ROM based on the stock firmware of which I am trying to release. I am going to need help on it as I am rather new to this area of Android but nonetheless does not mean I am terrible. I have done my research and have gotten some of the tools that are needed and have already successfully built a ROM just not able to boot it but I believe it is because I missed a step with the boot.img. The main tool I am using is the one that Superr has created called SuperRs_Kitchen. I am currently using v1.0.5.6 as the newest version I was having issues with.
If anyone has any questions, please feel free to ask me and I will try and answer them to the best of my ability.
I will provide an upload link once and if I get approved for requesting developer access. If I don't I will then use a different mirror to host it.
Please be patient, and I do not have an ETA on when the link will be up.
Welcome Francesco! Nice to see some W8 support here! Really looking forward to see development from you

When SmartSwitch says it's downloading your firmware:
If you open up the run dialogue, type in %APPDATA% you will be brought to the Roaming folder. Click in the address bar to actually go to the APPDATA Folder, click Local, then go into the Temp folder.
Sort the results by last modified.
You will see one that has a random generated name and is a .tmp file. Keep your eye on this file and the size. Keep pressing refresh. Once that file is done another file will be created above it with the exact same name but it will be a zip file. Keep an eye on the file size as for this one as well. Keep refreshing until it the file size stops changing. In my experience it's still the exact same size as the tmp file, but just wait about 5 seconds after it stop changing, then copy it to somewhere like your desktop.

Thank you. I know there isn't much support for this device, but the ROM I believe the one that is called Renovated Edge does work on the W8 version, but it will change your CSC to XAC and it was a real pain trying to get it back to RWC. Actually took me a couple days to figure out how to do it.

*Beware* Infected ROMs

Hello everyone.
Please don't flash your Yuphoria with ROMS provided by firmwarefile.com this site. There is a built in Malware/Adware known as "RockClient.apk" with SYSTEMUPDATE app. I found it during scanning my mobile using MALWAREBYTE app. I'm pretty sure that all other ROMs listed on the site are also Malicious. Don't download and report their GDRIVE links ASAP.
Have a good day.

Xme-n9005 kitkat stock firmware

Can someone provide alternative link to download this rom without premium member at any website in high speed?
