I wanna share my knowledge here
Learning from my experience using Samsung's devices, I found similarities in the way of reversing Samsung devices to stock rom.
So this guide should be practice for almost all Samsung devices
And for mod, please make sticky for this thread, so for Samsung owner can easily find it
Ok, let's get started
First, download all these stuff
1. Samsung USB Driver or go to this Thread (install it)
2. Samsung Kies (install it)
3. Odin v.4xx or Odin v1-3 or go to this Thread (just open when need it)
4. And of course your stock rom
Download from here (choose the right stock rom and the newest depend on your model)
5. Extract the stock rom using winrar/7zip
-you should 3 files PDA_xx.tar.md5, Phone/Modem_xx.tar.md5 and CSC_xx.tar.md5 or more
-If you have just two files, .xxxx.tar.md5 & SS_DL.dll, i'll give it the guide too
Second, Go to download mode
- For smarphone : hold power button+menu button+volume down (vol -)
- For tablet : hold power button+volume down (vol -)
For the 3 Files or more
- Go to download mode
- Plug your device to PC/Laptop
- Open Odin
- Choose PDA (browse it from your extracted stock rom)
- Choose phone/modem (browse it from your extracted stock rom)
- CSC (browse it from your extracted stock rom)
- If there's more files, just put it on the same box of the files names
- Check list auto reboot and f.reset time(look at the left)
- Click start and wait
- If success, should be writen "PASS" on left side
For 2 files only
- Go to download mode
- Plug your device to PC/Laptop
- Open Odin
- Just choose PDA and browse it the file(forget about SS_DL.dll or XX.dll file)
- Check list auto reboot and f.reset time(look at the left)
- Click start and wait
- If success, should be writen "PASS" on left side
If there's something miss or wrong, please tell me, I'll fix it this ASAP
And Let's helping people

if you can't go to the download mode, you should find other custom rom fir your device and flash it through recovery,
make sure it's custom recovery, not Recovery that came from the device(Samsung)
Samsung firmware sites has been fixed
Hi all i have new Lenovo PB1 770m I attempted to root it the TWRP was installed but it was not rooted
then I tried to update the firmware to the latest 151111 and no go, in the end i managed to delete the operating system so now I can boot to recovery mode only, When I try to restart it comes up with No OS Installed, I have tried to install xposed v79 sdk21 arm64zip no go, Ok now I know that I am an IDIOT for
not making a backup of original system and not cheking the firmware was the same as the root guide,
On the top of recovery screen is :- 2.8.7.7 SevenMaxs and TeamWin Recovery Project, I guess this could
be an expensive lesson, I have been looking for an original ROM with no luck so any help would be very
much appreciated, Thanks pluto1956, Mike
ps used info and files from here to try and root. http://forum.xda-developers.com/andr...oting-t3290347
UPDATE I managed to get a ROM from Russian site PB1-770M_S000156_150930_ROW_fastboot.7z 1.8gig

Well i did it. Is really simple but it seems nobody has this problem before. You need
- Download Stock Firmware from russian lenovo site
- The Tool i used is QPST_2.7.422 QFIL it cames with the Drivers (i used Win8.1)
- Put phone in Download mode (press vol up and down same time and connect phone to PC)
- Open QFIL program and select flat build
- In select programmer you select prog_emmc_firehose_8936.mbm
- In load xml i selected rawprogram_unsparse and path0
- After that you click download and wait like 4 min and when say finish succesfully you start phone manually
I hope this helps.
Thanks brother, yesterday i downloaded one russian rom in zip format and there was a .bat file included in it. i only double clicked and it flashed through adb and fastboot and it was successfull. i got the operating system 5.0.2 but WLAN is not working, tried flashing several time but no luck. i learned that it is still under warranty ..so sent it to warranty. in a week it will be back with be for testing again hopefully.
well i will try your method as soon as i get my beast again. Thank you so much for helping out in timely manner, really appreciate it brother.

it is very easy my friend just look into the only topic/thread about Phab plus in xda. it will guide you well.
if you get any error in recovery like footer is wrong/signature verification failed. connect your phone and first check if your device in being tracked by adb. use adb devices.
if your device appear in the list of devices ..use fastboot oem unlock then flash sevenmax twrp again after entering into temporary twrp as per phab plus thread.

Could you please elucidate more? I downloaded the ROM and the flash program. However, I've no clue how to get going. I don't even see the xml files anywhere (as mentioned by you).
Just don't want to screw it up bad so being little more cautious.

Hi, same here. I tried using QFIL and getting Sahara Fail. Then tried clicking on the bat file but its not working since the phone is not recognized. Please help.
EDIT : I got the QFIL working just now and my phone is working. Flashed the stock rom and I think it will be just fine.

My phone was wiped by me . I have TWRP and my phone is read as ADB interface (when in recovery mode). I tried adb devices and it returned 1f82f24b recovery. I also can access my phone memory from PC when in TWRP recovery which enables me to transfer files.
My problem is it is only read as ADB interface not as Qualcom COM port device. When I try Download_with_partition.cmd I get the error that it can not distinguish devices and to try. Any solution by those managed to install it successfully?
For everyone landing in this page due to wiping his OS of Lenovo Phab Plus by mistake (like I did), please refer to this thread:

Im usin a straighttalk SM-M820L. Is there any way any of this can be done without a pc? My phone is rooted tho. I used the {yup you guessed it} kingroot method and then i did the "replace kingroot with supersu" no pc method. Is there any tips or pointers that you could give me? I'm not using a pc because it was stolen a little while back and I just haven't had the spare cash to get another. Plus I just started tinkering with this and it's super more interesting than I thought. I'm trying to learn all that I can. Thank you for any help you can offer.

You guys can always check out my threads over at Needrom as well. I have 2 different posted threads there.
Here are the TWRP + Supersu files. FU Area52, with your dumb registration and all. And your stupid blue color.
Code:
https://goo.gl/hLaHCe
Preparation:
1. A memory card
2. One computer, and the spreadtrum driver has been installed (how to determine whether the driver has been installed, in fastboot mode to see whether there are unrecognized devices in the device manager can be).
3. The phone is in debugging mode
Start work:
1. Download duoqin1splus. rar, extract the duoqin1splus. rar and copy updata.zip to the local directory for backup;
2. Connect the phone to the computer (make sure there is a memory card inside!), uncompress DuoQin1SPlusRecovery. Rar, run runme.bat;
3. The phone will automatically enter fastboot, restart and enter the Recovery mode. Press "8" to enter the main interface of Recovery (don't double clear!Do not double clear!There is no Recovery mode to resume the previous step!;
4. Select "Apply update from external storage." select "update.zip" to copy to the memory card.
5. After the brush is finished, it is forbidden to double clean; select "reboot system" directly;
6. Wait for restart to enter the interface.
If you need to reset the phone, please go into the Settings to restore the factory Settings after the phone starts up normally. I will not be responsible for the repair of the jammed screen caused by double clear. Remind yourself not to listen. It's your own business.
Issues to note:
1. This kind of thing is mostly made out of feelings (yes, mobile phone has been repaired 2 times, and this test will be repaired again).Do not use for commercialization, once found, I will pursue the responsibility of commercial pirates.
2. After starting up each time, the recovery of the mobile phone will be restored to the official recovery. If you have other needs for using the mobile phone, please follow the steps in the beginning work and start over again.
3. Once the system is modified, ota update cannot be installed, please note;
4. Swiping machine is risky, please be careful.

I followed the steps in the guide and I am stuck at step 3. On this step
3. The phone will automatically enter fastboot, restart and enter the Recovery mode. Press "8" to enter the main interface of Recovery (don't double clear!Do not double clear!There is no Recovery mode to resume the previous step!;
My phone is entering fastboot, however there are no selection within the fastboot whatsoever. How do I restart and enter Recovery mode?
I tried holding the power button, it restarted but it entered the normal boot.
Tried to restart again and hold 8 still the same.
Can anyone help? I followed all the steps.

Following these steps the phone enters fastboot, but without automating restarting on Recovery mode.
Also on fastboot there no option for manual restart on Revovery mode.
Any help will be welcome.

So sorry reply you too late. Your could press the power button when your phone hold on the fastboot mode. If you can't enter in the recovery mode, may be your adb.exe is using or derive of fastboot has some problems. Please check and fix them.
The source page in Chinese and the origin flash programs was updated. it may solve your problems.

I had updated some new packages to solution the problem about the OTA updated after cracked phone, and you can view the source page to find them.
If your phone version is not in list on the source page, please recover to the recently official system and crack phone again.
By the way, you can make a package to delete the PackageInstaller.odex and put a new PackageInstaller.apk which is download from Google official and the app's file name is not same with the preset PackageInsatller.apk, after that, Using the cracked recovery to install the package, OTA update will be normal and phone could install any application also. (App must support Andriod 4.4.4).
Thanks!

Do not worry. If your phone is under the bootloader (fastboot mode), just long press the button of power, and waiting for device to reboot to the phone desktop. The drive of bootloader (fastboot mode) which has not been installed well may cause that.
And i'm sorry to tell you that the accessibility function is disabled in this phone, so the talkback tool may not be available. but i helped you to feedback this question to DuoQin official support. before official solve it, may be there has another way to solve this problem when the phone has rooted.
I had updated all file in Mega. and you can download it from this url: https://mega.nz/#F!64VV1IQB!k3F1pQCcT3W94fUblPH7eA. Hope it's will help you.
