If it fails at sboot, then it's probably because you're trying to flash a firmware that is older than the one already installed.
Try with the latest firmware.

[Q] n8010 - how to get back to stock after flashing the n8000 4.4.2 leak ?

I flashed my stock unrooted n8010 with the n8000 leak files using odin, I did not used the modem. All good and everything working.
Now I want to get back to stock n8010 jb. When in download mode the device apears like n8000 and odin is not able to flash the stock n8010 firmware.
I installed twrp and rooted, modified buildprop to apear like n8010 and tried to flash a custom rom for n8010, no luck, I get a message that the rom is for n8010 and to try a rom for my device.
How can I trick twrp or odin to make them flash n8010 fw/rom ?
I don't have a nandroid backup,
Edit : I managed to flash 4.0.4 with odin (N8010XXALGC_N8010OXXALG4_COA). After the flash it was stuck at samsung logo, I rebooted in recovery (power+volume up, release only power at samsung...) and wiped cache, wiped data and reset. Now the device booted with android 4.0.4 and I'm downloading a 568.29 MB update. I'll see what happends next...
The goal is to get back to stock jb, official (with triangle away I gues)
Edit: I updated to JB, but when in download mode the device is still N8000, so the problem is still not solved.

What version of Odin are you using ?Did you try to remove micro SD and full erase you tablets internal memory card? And why not 4.1.2 you install and not 4.0.4?
Because 4.1.2 gives me error, tried 3 versions of Odin: 3.04, 3.09, and 1.85. Tried 4.1.2 from 3 different sources to avoid a bad download. I can only flash 4.0.4, android shows me n8010 but in download mode is still n8000. I have no idea why, I just can't get rid of the n8000 in download mode.
Maybe I need to flash separate files, just like I did with 4.4.2, bootloader. Ap , csc but I don't know where to get those files for 4.1.2, I only have .tar.md5 files.
I attached a ss with odin eror when trying to flash stock 4.1.2

Did you have success installing the bootloader of the leak kitkat rom? Cause mine failed always, the AP file is the 1 working on me only. I have downloaded this TAR_MD5_PACKAGER here( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42393470&postcount=2 ) that I'm using to repack the stock and using 7zip to extract the content of the .tar.md5 files, maybe you can try repacking it seperately using this 2 program. And try to install it using Odin( I'm using Odin 1.85). By the way you can still install custom 4.1.2 rom's right, specifically for 8010 ? Lastly why do you wanna go back to stock 4.1.2 do you have problem with the leak rom?
P.S. Did you format your internal memory as I suggested? Cause once I install back to 4.1.2 have error before and have to install twice the rom( that is according to my experience which some think its not relate to installing error).maybe you can try to format all from the system to the internal memory via CWM recovery /mount section.Then try to install again and remove the SD card too.
I had no problems with the kit Kat files, flashed at the same time bl, csc and ap (no modem). I used odin 3.09. I managed to get back to 4.1.2 by flashing stock 4.0.4 then using OTA (im surprised it worked) . Someone else flashed directly 4.1.2 with mobile odin and worked, but with odin from pc you get an error.
The problem is that in download mode appears like n8000; hopefully, when official kk for n8010 is out we'll be able to fix that.

Glad you manage to resolve some of your problem.Plese ignore my post above your's then.
The problem is not solved lol. I just gave up for the moment. It's a miracle that I didn't bricked the damn thing today
I'll stay with a 4.1.2 stock n8010 fw that is using an n8000 4.4.2 bootloader. Sexy
Sent from my GT-N8010 using Tapatalk
Well from everything I've read it seems the problem is that when we flashed the kitkat leak, flashing the bootloader is what allowed us to flash n8000 over our n8010. This could be why when we flash back using odin we get the error cause the bootloader isn't being flashed too so it's trying to flash n8010 onto what it reads as n8000. It seems that there are only a few solutions. 1we need to find a n8010 bootloader file which so far seems to be impossible to find. 2you can flash an original n8010 cmw or twrp back up it will return you to 4.1.2 n8010 but the bootloader will still be n8000. If this option isn't available to you then you can try 3 download a custom rom I have the darkmans customers stock as a backup and it still works going back to simple stock n 8010 but again the bootloader stays as n8000...
Basically until we can get an n8010 bootloader we are stuck with it...
I even rooted the 4.4.2 leak and tried to flash a custom 4.4.2 made for n8010 and did not let me (based on the same leak i think, so the same bootloader) and failed, twrp sees the device as n8000 and did not allowed me to use n8010 rom.

I think I read somewhere that twrp can have issues with flashing 4.4.2 roms it needs to be the most up to date version of twrp... I tried cm 11 before and had to change to Cwm. But I went back to twrp and now it works
I used twrp 2.7, I think it's the latest.
Edit:
I reached a binary counter of 118
I used triangle away and reset it, however I'm still stuck with the n8000 4.4.2 bootloader.
N8000 bootloader
Same issue here, stuck on N8000 bootloader on my GT-N8010. After endless research I still can't find any solution but now the thing is, the official 4.4.2 KK is availble for the GT-8010, you guys think this is the solution, because I have read that though updating to the official Rom (via Odin Mobile) because Odin desktop fails, the device would still be stuck on the annoying N8000 bootloader?
Yes, even if you flash the n8010 4.4.2 with mobile Odin you will still have the damn n8000 bootloader.

Any way of downgrading the Bootloader, I've heard of a nandroid backup but I didn't do that before updating, is it possible to find one on the web?
You need a nandroid from a similar device, is possible but not sure if it will solve the problem.

I thought the official Rom would fix this but visibly no. So we don't have a choice of being stuck with the damn N8000 bootloader?
At the moment there is no solution that I know of.

N8010 on N8000 bootloader
Hi guys, isn't there a solution about this yet? I have the exact same problem with the N8000 bootloader, my device is a N8010 16GB from mexico and flashed the leaked N8000 kk stock rom. I will still look for a solution. TKS to all of you.
Mean time solution
Hi Guys, I found a way to flash te new N8010XXUDNE4 on the stuck n8000 bootlader, the bootloader problem remains, but it is possible to flash the n8010 stock rom via mobile odin, I did it and it's fully working, But I flashed a N8010XXUDNE4 customized without sboot.bin so it can be flashed via PC odin too, I'm still not allowed to post links here cause I'm new in forums so if you want the link to that rom let me know how to provide it to you.
Possible solution?
Have a look at my thread, does that look a viable approach?

It keeps on fails even when i tried flashing via ODIN it always stops middle way of the process and nothing is changed to my device!
And yeah this is not because of flashing a wrong firmware cz the one am using now i used that very zip, some days ago before upgrading and it worked just fine. Besides i already tried flashing almost every rom available on the internet for g920p and none of those that where based on lolipop seemd to work eversince i upgraded!

SM-G920W8 Help!

Hey guys, Im in need of some expert help.. So basically I let a friend root my phone and install twrp, and all went well until he flashed Xposed. He wasn't aware that I had installed the marshmallow update. After he flashed xposed the phone wouldn't boot so he tried to flash the stock 6.0.1 ROM back from Sam mobile with no luck. Apparently it gets stuck in Odin when trying to flash the CM.bin and the sboot.bin files. I was able to flash the system and modem files on to get it to boot. when checking the phone im not seeing any IMEI as it says Unknown. Ive tried just the modem file and nadda.. any help would be appreciated. Also My phone detects now as a SM-G920F and not as it should SM-G920W8 Canadian version.
Update. Ive installed the Xtresto Lite through TWRP and it installed fine except it still detects the phone now as a SM-G920F and ive still got no modem working.

Did you flash 920f modem?. Flash back to stock with odin or smart switch. Odin is a bit fussy though. Best us smart swith. It will do everything. You just have to enter model number and s.n. of the phone.

my current rom is custom stock debloated and deodexed from from Pavan. i don't know what is the CSC code of the rom but its based on J700MUBU2APF1
Try this
Download the ZTO MM rom.
Do a full wipe in TWRP.
Reboot into download mode.
Flash the MM rom via Odin.
You'll have to reinstall TWRP (Odin) and reroot (TWRP).

Can't flash stock firmware

Hi! A while ago I decided to flash TWRP and a custom rom (LineageOS) onto my S7. After a while I decided that I would prefer the stock OS. So I tried flashing the stock ROM with Odin and a zip file downloaded from SamMobile. But it would always fail when it got up to flashing system.img. So I tried another firmware using SamFirm, the same problem persisted. So I tried flashing the stock ROM using FlashFire, but no partitions showed up. Smart Switch and Kies 3 just said that my device is not compatible. If anyone can help me, it would be massively appreciated.
P.S. I am doing everything right, I've done this exact process on many other Samsung phones.
Are you extracting the AP, BL, CP and CSC files from the zip, or just putting the zip straight into Odin?
