Instructions for Obtaining NC5/NC5D, Flashing roms in OP

Nice of you to say, but I don't take donations, and never intend to...

I really should have posted the instructions here:

Get Completely Stock NC5D, then flash one of the 4 pre-rooted ROM variants on this thread (NC5 Odex and DeOdex, NC5D Odex and DeOdex):

Basic Suggestions

-->Use the same USB port on your PC for the steps below that you use regularly, so all drivers are up-to-date

-->Remove protective casing from phone

-->No need for engineering bootloader at all during this process, as it can be flashed at any time

Files you will need (some of these you will grab from the threads linked, other files are direct links):

(A) PC Odin, link to V3.07 here

-->Unzip, put on PC, right-click on the file, select "Run as Administrator," agree to Windows User Account Control, program is now open

(B) MD5 Checking program here works fine

-->Goes on your PC

-->Paste MD5 in top box with the paste button, use the browse button to load the file you are checking

(C) Stock NAB tar or One-Click, goes on your PC

-->Thank the dev and grab the file from the OP

-->Check your MD5 if using tar file

(D) Latest TWRP for our phone TouchWiz KitKat, V2.7.0.1

-->Goes on your PC

-->Flash with PC Odin

-->Goes in PDA slot

(E) Update zips for NC5 and NC5D

-->Goes on external SD card, root directory is fine

Steps to getting completely NC5D:

1. Get to completely stock NAB, with official status

1.1 Back up your important logs, calls, mms, contacts, nothing else

1.2 Go to settings, general, backup and reset, factory reset

1.3 Power off phone completely, go into download mode (power + home + volume down, then volume up to confirm at the caution sign)

1.4 Flash NAB stock tar or one-click

1.5 Don't bother setting up your phone, just make sure that it shows "official" under about device (settings, general, about device)

1.6 If not official (ie, still custom), factory reset device again, go to 1.4, you'll be official

1.7 Close PC Odin

2. Flash NAB to NC5 zip

2.1 Power off phone completely, go into stock recovery (power + home + volume up...take finger off power button the moment you see it going into recovery, but keep home and volume up pressed, or you could experience a recovery loop, which stems from keeping the power button mashed down)

2.2 Navigate to the option that allows you to run the update zip from external SD card (volume buttons navigate, power button selects)

2.3 Select the NC5 zip file, let it do its thing, let it reboot

2.4 Once booted, skip all of the log into your Gmail, Samsung, blah blah blah, let it fully update, boot, etc, fully, reboot for good measure

2.5 Completely power off phone

3. Flash NC5 to NC5D zip

3.1 Follow as in section (2) above, stopping at 2.4

3.2 Set up rudimentariness of phone, reboot again, update your PRL and profile

3.3 Power off phone

4. Inject Recovery

4.1 Load TWRP file linked above into PC Odin, PDA slot, leave auto restart selected

4.2 Power off phone completely, go into download mode

4.3 Having your fingers at the ready...not touching yet...be ready to hold home and volume up simultaneously...not yet..just about...hit start on PC Odin

4.4 As soon as TWRP flashes, Odin will try to auto restart your phone...takes only seconds...press and hold those buttons...

4.5 Reboot phone, say no to superuser if you want (I suggest no, since you will be adding it anyway once you've flashed this pre-rooted rom)

4.6 Again run the update PRL and Profile

5. Flash one of the ROMs in the OP of this thread

That should do it folks. If anyone thinks this could be improved, just let me know.
