Hi Im trying to help out a friend whos note 4 SM N910T keeps booting in recovery mode. There is no possible way to flash another rom to fix it without the use of Odin but for some reason I cant find a ROM in .tar format to flash it.
Any help with this? Thanks

You cannot flash custom rom in odin even if it's in tar format.
Check twrp version should be latest and must be for your particular model.
Make wipe first before flashing any rom to avoid and errors.

Why would you need that actually, it's the biggest downgrade you can get.

Maybe hes going to give it to his warranty.. so he wants it as it was before
I want it because i dont want flash with odin (mess imei) if i want my warranty back.
ODIN does in no way mess up our IMEI
There is always change to mess imei with odin. My odin stucks every 9/10 times to flashing system img. So reverting back to stock with nandroid backup and cwm flashable stock recorvery image would be definetly faster and safer.
Odin has nothing to do with your IMEI.. (/efs folder)

+1.And if you want your waranty back you can flash a stock rom via Odin ....(i think)
hmm. I have heard peoples losing imei's after odin flash. I would be happy if someone could make cwm flashable stock recorvery because my odin stucks so often.
and btw.... for which stock ROM? I made one a while back. This was for XXKPU I think. But should work with every stock ROM I guess.

I guess he wants a cwm recovery zip to flash from stock recovery?...(english is getting harder and harder theese days)
Even if he puts stock recovery back, he still needs ODIN to flash a stock ROM for warranty

Nope. A CWM flashable file that restores the stock recovery. And that's exactly what I attached.

Flashing that zip does not effect anything.
Also tried with mounted system data
But now it does. Didn't add the line to extract the actual image to flash Had better days I guess
Now it works perfect. THanks
Hi,
can you give an example how to convert an stock image to an image flashable by clockworkmod. My problem is, that my USB port is brocken, therefore i can´t use Odin. Mobile Odin seems not to support repartion - is this a problem - is repartion needed for stock images ?
So what can i do with an active clockworkmod to install an stock I9000XXJVR_SWC.zip ?
Thanks

You CAN or CANT access download mode ? If you can, simply flash a stock ROM via ODIN.

Yes I can, I tried to downgrade to GB but it failed as well :/
I don't really clearly understood your issue.
But if you want to flash a Stock ICS Rom, start ODIN PC, start your SGNote in download mode (button volume down + home + power), then connect your SGNote to your PC and flash via ODIN PC.
If you don't know exactly how to use ODIN PC, check tutos on the forum.

When you say "it failed" you are going to have to be more specific. Please give us an error message. Did you get a NAND write start and factoryfs.img and it just freeze after that in Odin?

Reinstall your ADB/USB drivers, make sure you're using USB2.0 port - for me USB3.0 always results in failed flash, ultimately switch USB ports.

The file you download from dr. Ketan is a .rar file, unzip it once and you get a .tar file. Flash that file with Odin in pda section. So don`t unzip the .tar file again.

To start with - you need root to flash this custom ROM, so unrooting your device was a mistake, you have to root it again.
Now, i've never flashed Criskelo's ROM, but from what i've read in the thread, you need to root your device, flash Chainfire's ICS repack via mobile odin, and then flash criskelo rom via CWM. Do not unpack the .zip file, you need to point CWM to that file.

When you boot into recovery, is it CWM recovery?
If you are talking about not seeing the CWM app, don't worry about that.

That's exactly what i did (in that order) and I got a bootloop.
I was able to fix it by restoring my backup and ODIN flashing the ANI1 modem.
So I got the ROM to boot with the old modem, however the fingerprint scanner does not work and my Gear Vr headset just shows a blue screen when I put it on.
Think I'll wait a few days/weeks till the bugs are all worked out

Looks like it's the modem that's causing the boot loop. I just flashed the ROM and booted fine with the NI1 modem.

Same issues here with the finger print scanner using NI1 modem. I also was stuck in boot loop on the NJ5 modem.
Ugh, my fingerprint sensor is still messed up after restoring back to Definitive ROM.
"An error has occurred with the fingerprint sensor". Rebooting doesn't help. Anyone have a workaround for this?
