[Q] Kind of new to the Rooting, but I need a bit of help.

Okay, so recently this week I rooted my Tmobile Galaxy note 3 SM-N900T model. I installed the Xnote Custom Rom and everything was pretty much fine.
This is where the problem started. I have a mobile app Called Odin Mobile, which I used to actually Custom Rom Flash, because I didn't see the option during the Bootloader to where I'm able to Custom Rom flash it from my external card, so I bought the Odin app to help me do it mobile and use CW Recovery to handle it. Now I went to find a wifi patch, because my wifi would NOT work with this Rom at all, I found a patch to install, so I used Odin Mobile Pro to simply just Flash the install on it and hope it would go through after a bit of research. Now my phone I believe is Paperweight softbrick. It doesn't go past the Xnote KitKat Menu of 4.4.2. I can't do anything, even worse my computer isn't reading my phone to where I can just get the files from my phone or external Microsdcard.
What should I do ? I'm pretty helpless at the moment. I even went to try and find a Stock Rom for my Model number which is the Tmobile Model Number: SM-N900TZWETMB Variant, I haven't been able to locate any, my only hope from what I'm reading, is to find a Stock Rom of 4.4.2 with my model and use Odin and hopefully that works, but I'm not able to locate anything, and the internet here is pretty horrible. If there is anything anyone can do to help me I appreciate it.

wish i could help, but after searching i came up empty just like you.
you really need the stock file to even see if this is fixable.
in the future you really should make a backup after installing a custom recovery before flashing anything else, for cases just like this.

Your phone is bricked. You should find a file of the stock rom and flash it via odin. Remember you can flash any note 3 firmware onto any note 3, so I'd recommend you to find the rom file of the international version of your phone (which is the N9005). Remember, if you're able to boot your phone into flashmode, you'll always be able to unbrick/repair it.

Okay thank you for the info, I actually fixed my phone not a couple of hours, shortly after this post. What I did was get the latest Clockworkmod, mine was an old version and didn't have the Install option, when I used Odin, I use the updated Version and was able to Wipe my data, then simply Reflash the Custom Rom and solved my problem. Soon as I got my phone on, I instantly went and Nandroid, so.....won't be doing that again.
I actually didn't know I can flash any note 3 firmware on my phone, least the Tmobile versions, good to know. I'll find em and keep on my computer just in case. I still have the wifi problem, so hopefully I can tackle that down and learn to patch my rom.

Just to mention it, that doesn't work only for t-mobile samsung phones. As I said, you can flash any note 3 firmware onto any note 3. I recommend the international version because it's generic, and generic firmwares are always the best ones, with as little bloatware as possible.

[Completed] [Q] need help note 3 (SM-N9005)

hi there,
i have a SM-9005( Australian Telstra) which i bought used a couple of weeks/ about a month ago. NOT KNOWING WHAT I WAS DOING i tried to install android 5.0 via odin but, the thing that i did'nt realise was that it was the hong kong firmware after installing it i encountered a problem something like " binary (number) < (number) i figured that it was because when i decided to install it the storage was about 95% full and it only had like 300mb left so i just went into recovery and restored the phone. after successfully installing 5.0 i noticed that the phone was starting to be glitchy as in system would'nt respond (lag) no sound and camera and mic and calling wouldn't work. so i decided it was best to just roll back to the old os 4.4.2 and thats what i did. after doing so i realised that the same problems were still there "no in/outgoing call, no sound, no Google Now, no S-Voice, no camera, slow lock screen and slow settings" after trying to research and not finding anything that would help me ( mainly as my phone is Australian variant) i decided to install a custom rom Cyanogenmod, although this fixed the camera the other problem were still there and after trying to even restore from a nandroid backup via twrp recovery the problem has still not been resolved and well....:crying:

Constant reboots / freezes following OTA update to G920FXXU3DPDP

Hi. My Galaxy S6 (SM-G920F) got an OTA firmware update to G920FXXU3DPDP the other day, since when it constantly freezes or reboots within a few minutes of booting up. This even happens if I boot into safe mode.
The handset is running the stock ROM, not modded in any way.
Before I take it to the local Samsung Support Centre, could I ask:
1. Is anyone else having the same problems? I'm not finding much when searching the web.
2. Is there a way of downgrading the firmware without having to reset (and then re-setup from scratch) the handset? I've got a copy of the previous firmware (G920FXXU3DPBG) from sammobile.
Cheers.

Hi C.C.
This S6Edge report seems very similar to yours.
He successfully was able to make a backup.

Not that I know, in special, as it seems, you are not rooted neither has a custom recovery.
Nice regards.

WiFi is not working...

Hi,
The first is to apologize for the language used, and the length of the text. I am from Spain and my level of English is low, so as it was a fairly long post I used Google Translator and I know that makes it very literal translation ...
I write this post to see if anyone can help me or give some idea ... I explain the problem.
I own for some time ago the Tablet, Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2012) . He has always liked to try new ROMs, so far without much trouble, but .... I tempted fate a lot.
At some point, after changing the Recovery and ROM, to test Marshmallow, the WiFi stopped working, which is a problem in a device of this type, you lose a lot of functionality.
I have tried many ROMS, about 10, and none of them work properly. It is true that some seems, makes the attempt, working. But it does not work.
I have also tried different Recoveries (CWRM, TWRP, Stock, HigOnAndroid, ....), and I have not gotten the Tablet WiFi work.
With all these tests, entering DOWNLOAD mode, it indicates that the device model is the Note 10.1 GT-N8000, the model without WiFi. And when you install a ROM, and go to Settings/Info, the system said that the Tablet is the GT-N8000 model.
This has led me to perform multiple tests:
A- Flash several ROMS by Recovey, usually used the TWRP.
B- Change Recovey installed by Odin 3.10
C- The last thing I have tried, is back to the original ROM and Recovery by Odin 3.10
All these attempts, multiple, have thrown me the same result. The WiFi does not work, and continues to indicate that is the model GT-N8000
The questions are:
1 - Is it normal, even the GT-N8013 model DOWNLOAD mode appears as the GT-8000?
2- Is there any way to get back to its original state, GT-N8013, with WiFi?
3- What Recovery would be most appropriate? (I once used the TWRP)
4- What ROM for this Tablet is the most appropriate? (This question is very personal, I've always liked Omega Rom)

What model do you have .

Hi, WiFi isn't working because you probabily stay with a older bootloader but with 6.0. When you flashed the MM rom, your tablet at which version of android was? Maybe i think 4.4.x if WiFi doesn't start. You need to update the bootloader into marshmallow or try look on the thread where you found the rom if there are some modem updates. By the way, if you want to get the stock firmware and install it on your tab, first go in sammobile site and download the firmware ( pay attention to version 4g / without 4g ) and then put your device in download mode->connect to odin-> on "PDA" load the firmware you downloaded -> start -> wait 10/12 mimutes and you will have the tablet as you bought for the first time.
And check if the rom is right for your device( because when kernel is different if the device start it can have some issues like WiFi )
Hope i help you
If i helped you, remember to click the thanks button!

Hi,
Thanks, sorry for delay, I can solve the isue with another Rom

Need help with my S6!

Hello there,
Please forgive me if i posted this thread on the wrong place.
-I would've not posted a thread here unless this got serious, so i own a Samsung Galaxy S6, it's 1 year old phone, when i first got it, i used it normally like everyone else and had no problem with it, but my curiosity got me to root the phone, i still did not get any problem with it until i chose to add a ROM. I used NNE 5.1 S8 port and it was working well until it got my phone broken somehow.
-My phone started acting really strange after 2 months of activity of that new ROM, my phone just started restarting randomly and it got me worried, i thought it's an application problem so i first just factory reset it. It seemed it was not the problem on an application, so i chose to change my firmware to a stock one. I searched up recently on the newest firmware for S6 and i found out it's: XEF (France) , PDA (AP): G920FXXU6ERC1 and CSC : G920FOXA6ERC1 on 2018-03-22. I Downloaded 4 files: BL,AP,CP,CSC , and i found out about PIT on one of the posts in this forum (Filename: SM-G920F-ZEROFLTE_EUR_OPEN.pit).
-Before i flashed with Odin, i wiped System, Data, Cache and Dalvrik Cache. The firmware worked well but after 1 hour it started doing the same thing but now differently. It happend to me only 1 time that it froze up on an application, but i think that is just an app problem. The main problem is that when i lock my screen, i cannot unlock it anymore, it just freezes there until it restarts after a short period of time. After the restart, it just keeps going, restarts, asks for pin, restarts and so on.
I tried removing the sim card and putting it back in, did not work.
I tried Safe mode, still same.
Model of phone: SM-G920F
Current firmware: XEF (G920FXXU6ERC1)
Android version: Nougat (7.0)
If you can help me, or you know something about this problem, please repost here, i would be really grateful since this is my only phone

How could samsung switch possibly help?
I did flash it with different versions already, but no luck :/.
I've been praying a lot for this lately but it is not working lol

Please Bump this!

try doing this.
1) go here: https://updato.com/
2) choose download 2 roms. 1 nougat and another marshmallow (to my knowledge, stock roms are one file. no more splits and unless otherwise stated... no need for pit)
3) first flash nougat using oden
4) try the phone for a few some time.
if after a set amount of time, phone works fancy and no issues present then it's solved.
if not... install marshmallow. then try again.
if all this fails then...
install nougat. as soon as possible afterwards install twrp.
boot into twrp and just leave it there. my twrp locks after a while and screen goes dark until user interaction (just like it's supposed to)
if the same thing happens then its a hardware issue... probably... (i have had my main board fail... kinda similar not similar issue... hope you dont have the same issue and that its just software related)
good luck.

In my case every time there was an update available it would download the whole firmware and by doing so you would get the most fresh and updated version. Also it updates every partition to match
