Forgot to mention that Flashify has become a trusted source, to me and maybe others here. You can find it on Google Play and it will download TWRP, I recommend the non-zip latest one. Flashify will also automatically prompt you to install it from where it just downloaded it and checks its integrity. Since TWRP updates frequently, could be a manual step saver.

So I used a totally different computer and new cable and I'm still getting stuck at the exact same place. Everything on ODIN said it worked but my phone just bootloops.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
1) Could you tell me what is your goal, please? Example: root stock, flash custom touchwiz or CM12 ROM. If touchwiz, are you referring to NIE, NK2, OB7?

2) Are you starting with a factory reset then stock tar?

There are alternate methods but knowing your goal could simplify the process or warrant starting over with NIE stock tar. For example, you could simply Odin TWRP recovery and then flash a rooted ROM zip or SuperSU zip in recovery. Another example: I and at least one other user trying to get to the OTA for 5.0.1 (OB7), had to Odin NIE stock tar and take two OTA updates to get lollipop.

http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu

This is a recovery flash that uses custom recovery to root; same developer, different approach. (For rooting stock. If a different ROM is your goal, it most likely includes this zip in its flash zip in a folder labeled supersu.)

Using the alternative methods, you'd skip Odin if CF Auto Root but still have to Odin latest TWRP.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingKobra813:
1)My goal is to just root stock

2) I'm starting with a factory reset. I don't really know what you mean by stock tar.

What I tried was. I followed the instructions to root my phone. It got stuck in a bootloop. I did a factory reset. Set up my phone. Tried to root again using ODIN. Still getting stuck in bootloop. Then I did another factory reset and I'm just stock but the strange thing is I have Super SU installed and all the bloatware I originally removed is gone but rootchecker says I don't have root. And strangely my WiFi won't work.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
Root stock helps me some with your goal. The alternative method of Odin TWRP them flash the zip file in the previous post would be an option.

The time that you actually root is key to your goal and suggesting steps. If you want rooted lollipop, currently the only option is take OB7 OTA (over the air) update.

Furthermore, you're having Wi-Fi issues and can't root is an indication you need to flash stock firmware in Odin rather than just root. It's always a good idea to do this if you start having problems with booting after a flash or something is not working.

There's already a thread on getting to lollipop with OTA and rooting.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=59235259

You could follow that but I'd suggest adding an extra OTA and starting over at NIE stock tar since NK2 is giving you problems. The three alpha-numeric designations for firmware I gave indicate the original stock tar starting at NIE and then NK2 (both are KitKat ROMs). The initial lollipop ROM is OB7. The stock tars available are NIE and NK2 found below.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingKobra813:
I would lIke to stay on kitkat. What steps would you recommend for me to root my phone?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
1)Download the stock tar NK2, TWRP tar for Odin and supersu zip.

2)Factory reset.

3)Power down. Battery pull is an option. Go to download mode.

4)Odin stock tar; be patient waiting for COM and tar to verify before start (one minute or 2).

5)Boot and setup.

6)Power down.

7)Odin TWRP recovery tar

8)In recovery, flash the supersu zip.

9)On first boot, follow any prompts to update su binary that SuperSu prompts you for but do not select TRWP as the option but "Normal" when asked.

10)You should be rooted.

Of course you could also follow the instructions in the stock tar thread I pointed you too. The above is the alternative method.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingKobra813:
I'll give that a try.

Is this the correct stock tar nk2 - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95853297432265112
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
Correct.

Refer to post 8 for the links to alternate rooting method files if you don't already have them.

Best wishes for success. No luck to it.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuzzywolfbunny:
I updated my (Verizon) M8 to Lollipop. To connect to my work WiFi, I need to put an auto proxy URL that points to a pac file. However, with the M8, when I choose "Proxy Auto-Config", the SAVE button greys out and I can't do anything except Cancel or back out. I would think that when I choose Proxy Auto-Config, a new field would appear that would let me enter the URL like on iOS or BB10. I know it works in Lollipop on Nexus devices, but I can't figure out why it isn't working on the M8. I'm not sure if it's a limitation of HTC or Verizon or neither. I've done a factory reset just in case it was an installation issue, but the problem remains. I can't root my phone nor use a 3rd party proxy app - I need to use the native Lollipop auto proxy.

Here are some helpful information for you as a new user on XDA:

Rule #1: Search before asking. There are several threads about how to root a device. Maybe you would like to have a look here.

Rule #2: If you want other users to help you, please be more specific in your question. Include information about your device like name, software version and so on, so other people can help you out.

The suggested method by using towelroot does not work for all devices, you might search for "your device's name root" to get an answer.

Hello Everyone.

Please, I need some help. I was trying to downgrade an ATT Samsung Galaxy S3 from 5.0 to 4.1.1 and try to unlock it.

First, Try to flash with Odin 3.04, Odin 3.07 and Odin 3.09 with the firmware 4.1.1 from Samsung. It always failes.

So I rooted it , installed a team Win Recovery Project 2.6.3.1 and flashed a custom rom based on Android

4.1.2 thinking it will break the bootloader. Nothing.

I tried Emergency Recovery with Kies did not work.

In odin mode:

Product Name: SGH-I747

Current Binary: Custom

System Status: Custom

Qualcom Scoreboot: Enable

Warranty Bit:1

Bootloader AP SWREV:3

I spent hours on it. I don't know what to do.

Anyone has a idea to help me please?

Thanks you very much in advance.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
If you can get into download mode, flash the latest Philz d2lte recovery using the tar.md5 file and Odin. Copy a ROM to an external SD card (I recommend the latest CM11), boot into recovery, flash the ROM, boot the phone. Once the phone boots, confirm your bootloader and modem version. I recommend not flashing anthing until you at least know your bootloader version.

Continuing to flash files without knowing the bootloader verson can hard brick you phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MEEEEEEEE:
Thank you for your quick answer like you said i tried to flash cyanogen mod 11 and it aborted. How can I find out my bootloader version?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
If you're on Philz touch, download AROMA file manager and store it on your external SD. You can get it here.

Boot into recovery and flash the file manager like you would install a ROM and it will open the file manager. Once you're up in the AROMA file manager, one of the menu options is to open a console. Once you're up in the console window the following command will tell you what bootloader you have loaded:

getprop ro.bootloader

That command will work from ADB shell in custom recovery too, if you happen to have ADB and all the drivers set up right on your computer.

What error did you get when flashing with Philz? Was it error 7?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MEEEEEEEE:
Yes. It was a status 7. And I don't know what happens. Right now it looks hard bricked. I can not even it start it and put it on the downloading mode. When I plugged it to the power source without the battery. I have a big red led on and any responses. What is it? Can I go back to the downloading mode with a jig?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
Pull the battery, leave it out for a few minutes, then try to boot into recovery or download mode. This has cured some curious behavior for me a few times (just a shot in the dark though).

Another random thought, do you know how much battery power you had left? I'm a little surprised a failed CM flash would result in a hard brick when you still had download and recovery working before. Any chance the battery is dead? It won't charge without a working rom.

If that doesn't work and you can't get into recovery or download mode it might be time to move on to the debrick threads.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
You may have to try a de-brick image. Status 7 usually occurs when the recovery is out of date.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MEEEEEEEE:
I tried to take the battery out and the flash is light on for a micro second but the phone does not boot. I can not go either in the recovery mode nor the downloading mode.

The is a custom rom on the phone. There is a slim kat v9 on it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
You did put the battery back in after pulling it for a couple of minutes, right? ;) Looking back at my previous post it was poorly worded.

The fact that you went from working recovery and download to not working on a status 7 is curious. Usually status 7 errors are the developers trying to protect us from ourselves; your recovery is out of date, you are trying to flash a rom that isn't for your phone or doesn't like your bootloader, something like that. When you get a status 7, usually the recovery didn't actually do anything. It failed a safety check and quit. That's what made me wonder if maybe your battery just died.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
So you flashed CM11 for the d2lte using the latest version of Philz? Did you flash anything else?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MEEEEEEEE:
Actually I gave the cellphone to someone few days ago and he told me that I needed to unlock the bootloader and install EZ-unlock. Unlocked the bootloader. Philz is still on the recovery partition. The firmware flashed is slim kat v9. Since the bootloader has been unlocked. The phone does not want to start. I tried to take out the battery for few minutes. it does not change anything.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrrocketdog:
the phone wont start because the i747 bootloader does not come locked. what ez-unlock does for this device is effectively BRICK it!!!!! i know because thats how i bricked my first i747. now you really do need the debrick image. when plugged in , without battery does the led show red ?

pretty positive sign of a brick if thats all you can get. check the link for the "de-brick" thread that i posted. remember that sometimes it takes more than one try , and while one sdcard will work for one phone , it may or may not work for another. just keep trying. good luck.:thumbup:

Stop flashing your phone until you read as many posts as you can......or you will have a 400$ brick....:(

Ideas? Suggestions? Thanks
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] PrizmaticSmoke:
I've never had those issues on any lollipop ROMs (at least not for this device).

Personally I'm not a big fan of CM, have you tried any other ROMs and/or kernels? Have you flashed a custom kernel or adjusted any kernel settings that could be causing this? Are you using any mods (like Xposed)?

I'd suggest trying out some other ROMs (possibly even just rooted stock) and starting out with a clean flash, with no mods/kernel changes initially, and see if you still have the issue.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] talk2nate:
I'll give that a try.. I haven't done anything to it because upgraded the bootloader to like 4.04 and installed CM12 on it. It ran so good till like a week or so ago and now its just trash. A case with a magnet for sleep mode wouldn't have anything to do with this would it? But first things first, I'll try a simple 5.0.2 rom and see what happens.

Thanks
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDA Visitor:
I'm trying to help a lady that works at my daughter's daycare with her Kindle Fire HD 7. The Kindle is stuck on the logo screen. I've read numerous threads here, to understand what I need to do to restore the kindle to factory settings. I'm having an issue however identifying the Kindle from my PC. I'm trying to attach the Kindle to a old Dell D610 latitude laptop that is running Windows XP SP 2. I've installed Andriod Studio and via the Andriod SDK Tools (SDK Manager application) I've installed ADB and FASTBOOT.

I started with the regular cable that comes with the Kindle. I powered the Kindle off, by pressing the power button for about 10 sec and then plugged it into my computer. The computer did not recognize the device, however, the screen does turn on and show the kindle fire logo in white and orange.

After reading through some threads, I purchased a fastboot cable. I then attached the kindle with the fastboot cable, but turning off the kindle and plugging it into the usb port. This time the kindle turned on, and then went into fastboot mode on the kindle screen. In device manager, the kindle shows up under "other devices" and it comes up as "Tate-PVT-08". When I go to my cmd prompt and try to type in "adb devices" I don't get any devices present. When I go type in "fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product", I also do not get any devices.

here's the things i've tired:

1.) In the device manager I've tried to uninstall and reconnect the device. Same thing happens every time, I just get the device to reappear as Tate-PVT-08 and I'm not able to access it via fastboot or adb.

2.) I've tried to download the google usb drivers. When i try to navigate to them from the device manager for the Tate-PVT-08 device, it tells me their are no drivers for this item.

3.) I've tried to install the kindle drivers via the SDK Manager, however, windows still does not recognize the device or give me an option to select Kindle as the type of device I am connecting in the driver selection screen in the device manager.

So my question is, how can I jut get my kindle recognized by my PC so that I can go through a process to re-image the thing?
