1. You may want to try using:

http://samsung-updates.com/

instead of samfirmware, if you're experiencing corrupted downloads from the latter (but it's not very probable... see pt 3)

2. At the moment I am testing new firmware revision, downloaded from samsung-updates: P905XXUAND1 for NEE region. It flashed fine. Also, for most of the time I have used P905XXUANC3 firmware for DBT region (Germany - even if I am not a German, I do not really care about csc stuff, and I got used to the fact that the newest firmwares were always released for DBT region first on my old "standard" Note 10.1). It was flashing fine, too.

3. The problem seems, however, lie not in the firmware, but in your hardware - or at least in the way it is handled by Odin or drivers. Note that *.tar.md5 archive contain md5 checksum concatenated to the very end of archive. When you're selected firmware file in Odin (in a PDA section), it probably took a longer while before the file appeared as selected - this is because meanwhile Odin is checking the checksum (and for that purpose, he has to read whole 1.5Gig file...). So: If Odin allowed you to flash the tar.md5 file - then it was NOT corrupted, otherwise it won't even be possible to start the process as of file wrong checksum!

4. THere is another possibility - that something bad happened to your pit section (it has been overwritten in result of flashing firmware for a wrong device) and your nand partition table is corrupted, which may probably result in an impossibility of flashing files or impossibility of mounting filesystems... I cannot help then, I have never faced such a problem in practice myself.

5. Pt 4, however, seems to be less possible than pt 3.

- Have you ever flashed any firmware with success?

- what do you mean by "long installation process"? A 10 minutes? An hour? Half-a-day? :)

- Have you been observing Odin while flashing? It's indicating which partition is being flashed atm - can you tell on which firmware part (system? hidden? cache?) did it fail?

- Try using different version of Odin (an older one, guess 3.07? not sure however - the one which has "PDA" section instead of a single-letter names)

- Try flashing from different PC

- use usb 2.0 port instead of 3.0 ones.

- try using different usb cable (I guess it'll may be the hardest thing to check because the cable seem to be quite unique :P )

** I am thinking may be the problem is about pit. and I don't know where I will find a .pit file for SM-P905. some how may be the pit of my note pro is corrupted. i don't know actually I am not a developer!

Here all you wanted to know!

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esgie:
Ok, we shall try to flash firmware otherwise, using more advanced method.

Note that if ur knox isn't yet tripped - it WILL trip it, breaking your warranty (in this case it's better to send the device to service center - i suppose something's broken...). If it is tripped, you have nothing to lose...

1. Download:

http://www67.zippyshare.com/v/25492738/file.html

do not rename the file, it should be named recovery.img

2. Using this tool

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2446269

convert provided recovery.img to tar.md5 format

3. Flash it with odin (it should take a few sec to finish and it should succeed as recovery seems to flash ok on your device)

4. Enter recovery mode by holding power+home+vol up. Warning should appear about warranty and then custom recovery should appear on screen..

5. Using touch menu seek thru options and thru wipe menu format the system partition, as well as wipe/format data and cache (any errors?). Leave the device for a moment...

6. Simultanously, open one of 2+ gig tar.md5 firmwares (i recommend to choose one which you tried to flash with odin in your last trial) downloaded from sammobile with winrar or 7zip (if error about bad end of file appears ignore it) and extract system.img.ext4 somewhere...

7. Download simg2img from post #19

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2191930&page=2

and use it to convert sparse image extracted from firmware tar.md5 (system.img.ext4) to raw image (let's say output file is called system.img)

8. Copy system.img to root of empty micro sd card (fat32 or exfat formatted). Check if it has been copied correctly. Put the micro sd card into device. Reboot recovery once again

9. Advanced -> terminal/console -> use default directory ( / ), console window should open. Using simple onscreen keyboard input:

dd if=/external_sd/system.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p23

Be careful - if ur on P905 the last number should be "23", inputting otherwise may result in unrecoverable hard brick!!! Also, process may take a LONGER while, like 10 mins, its ok, even if there is no progress indicator. Youll know it finished when keyboard will show back again (any errors here??)

10. Reboot AGAIN to recovery, go to Mounts menu, tick system, data and cache (does tick within system work?)

11. Go to terminal as in pt 9, but this time enter:

restorecon -R /cache

restorecon -R /data

restorecon -R /system

(errors?)

12. Reboot into system and cross yer fingers

DAAAAMN wrong link copied.

Wait a sec, I'll upload it in a while. Until then, you may start doing steps 6-8.

EDIT:

Here u go

http://www47.zippyshare.com/v/40021725/file.html

PS: using above method (a similiar one, to be exact...), figured out on my own to be exact, I have managed to unroot and revert to fully-stock state my old Note10.1, which I was not able to flash straight via Odin at all because the port's been broken, so I was able to send it to service center without any worries (at least related to the possibility of detecting the customization by the service) The difference is that you are able to flash files via Odin - except the system - but also that my device was booting at the very beginning, and yours not. Neverthless, with appropriate modifications, it should work on P905 too - or at least explain what's the reason of your issues.

Don't want to worry you, but as of now i am considering physical NAND damage as the most possible cause of the issue... But that's a theory only. Good luck.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ornobohornish:
problem solved!

my dear sir, don't know how but my note pro start up automatically. before some minutes on my display "unauthorized operation occur, please restart you device" was showing. so after pressing ok, device tried to restart but it was stuck on recovery mode. so i started my device manually. when I pressed reboot from recovery everything was fine and still now it is working properly!

I don't know is going gone on my device. but is a mystery for me!

one thing, after trying to fix my devices long time my note pro battery was empty and i could not able to charge because it was stuck on download mode. after searching i got a boot image.tar.md5 for SM-P905. and install that Samsung logo appear, and device started charging. and after charge a few, It was start up!

now when I am connecting it with my pc, kies says I need to update my device. but previously my device was updated the latest software. I am giving the screen shot!

what will I do now? just update via kies and star to operate my device normally?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esgie:
Did I understood well that after emptying the battery of the non-working device out and recharging it back again at least a little, the device started to work again? Seems like... eeee...? some voltage circulating through the mainboard was the cause?

Well, I bet it was faulty or somehow corrupted boot.img (as it was the only partition you have flashed between the time the device seemed damaged and time the device started to work again), but I am not sure what really happened.

As to the firmware update question: from the screenshot attached I can see that you are now running XXUNAE firmware. Proposed XXUNC3 is a newer one so in general it is recommended to do the update. However, we cannot be sure anyhow if your device will not react in a same way as before. However, current updates seems to be minor ones (they concentrate on security policies and not on features...) so my recommendation is to leave it alone, at least until some more important update...

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djbenny1:
Guys - this problem is driving me up the wall.

I've tried for hours to fix it, but can't find a solution.

When in WhatsApp, when I click the paperclip to attach, then Gallery, it takes me to the "WhatsApp gallery" thing which has all my photos etc. in it. Using the 3 dot menu I can then also choose to go to HTC Gallery or Google Photos instead. That's all fine.

However, when I select an image in the "WhatsApp gallery" and hit the send button, it WILL NOT send no matter what I do. It just returns to that "WhatsApp gallery" home screen with all the folders.

The ridiculous thing is if, by using the 3 dot button and selecting one, I go to either HTC Gallery or Google Photos, I can send anything just fine.

It is simply this stupid intermediate screen that doesn't work!!!!

What is it? And how can I fix it / get rid of it / set default to HTC Gallery?

I've tried clearing data for Gallery & WhatsApp, uninstalling WhatsApp, installing WhatsApp+, moving DCIM folder contents around - you name it, I've tried it to the best of my knowledge.

Please someone tell me what the problem is here, because although it's a very small thing, I use it daily and it's driving me mad!!

Thanks

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Mattix724:
Hey everyone I recently discovered a new AOSP ROM while I was browsing Google+ and the development team was taking requests for new devices so I made a request for the Wi-Fi variant of the Galaxy Note 8. They delivered the first build within 24 hours of requesting and I have to say this is very smooth. I have not experienced any major bugs, the only problem I have experienced was with Google Sound Search. I'm sure I could just remove it from the system and download from Google Play and it will work just fine.

I do not take any credit for this at all. I am not a developer. I am simply sharing this amazing ROM with the community because there has not been an official thread created by the developer here on XDA. Moderators feel free to remove this thread when the developer is ready to create and maintain a thread for this device.

Here is the PixelROM website, check it out and see for yourself.

http://www.pixelrom.tk/

The ROM can be found here.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/pixelrom/files/n5110/weekly/

Googleapps can be found here. Just pick a mirror.

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps

Neither I nor the developers at PixelROM are responsible for anything you decide to do with your device. You take full responsibility for making the decision to install this firmware. If you brick your device due to the lack of the ability to follow simple instructions I will laugh at you. If your alarm clock fails to wake you up after installing this and you are late to work, you are at fault for relying on a tablet as your alarm clock.

I highly recommend using Titanium Backup to make a backup of all of your user apps that you would like to restore after finishing the installation of PixelROM.

Installation instructions are as follows.

1. Reboot to recovery. (PhilZ CWM recovery works for this)

2. Make a backup of your current setup.

3. Wipe everything including system, preload, data, cache, etc.

4. Install PixelROM from the location in which it was stored.

5. Install KitKat gapps which should be in the same location.

6. Reboot and profit.

Connect to Wi-Fi, sign into Google, and complete the setup wizard. I personally do not choose to restore Google apps during the wizard because I use Titanium Backup. Now you should open the Play Store and let it do it's thing and once it is ready to be used you can search for Titanium Backup and install it. If you are like me, you may want to eventually purchase the Pro license key because it makes things much better all around.

Credits are as follows.

PixelROM team for their efforts and bringing this to our device.

CyanogenMod for providing the base this is built on.

Sbrissen for his device tree which gave us official CM support.

And probably many many more.

Thank you for the heads up. I tried it out and it is a solid rom, just a little plain for me. It is really quick though.

Update: I flashed the latest update to this rom to see if they added any customizable features in yet and it is still basically the same. If you are looking for a clean, no frills back to base android rom than this is it. From what i read on their site they have a really good support team to. It just is not my cup of tea, so to speak.

[LG Optimus 2x] Hawaiisa:
You should try the volume module for Xposed, as it should do exactly what you ask for. You need to have xposed installed in order for it to work. As Xposed messes up ART on the cm11 ROM, I haven't tried the module myself, but it might be worth a shot! ;)

As ART made my phone go crazy I decided to go back to dalvik and test the module. It works like a charm! Should be exactly what you are looking for :) It's available as "xvolume" in the xposed installer download region
