You have to bundle the files downloaded from XperiaFirm, into an FTF, you do this with Flashtool:

You can skip the parts about Decrypting, because XperiFirm does that for you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] yeronix:
I'll cut to the chase, I own a Verizon Samsung Galexy S4.

It's rooted, and I used Eclipse rom, but I wanted to update to Lollipop.

So I flashed the stock SCH-I545NC5 4.4.2 and everything was fine.

Now, I used software update and it would download, restart, and give me the "failed to download/update" etc. error ( I have figured out later that this was due to me still being rooted.)

Anyway, I then tried to use Kies3 and everything was going great.

It restarted annnnd boom, I get the firmware failed to update screen with the exclamation point telling me to use emergency repair. So I did. Aaand that fails every time too... so I did some searching and finally found the SCH-I545NC5 factory rom tar.md5 file for Odin.

I have all of the drivers and everything, and I have used Odin3 before to update this phone without trouble.

But now whenever I try to flash stock it gives me this:

<ID:0/003> Added!!

It prints all of that out in a second or less...

I then got the .pit and tried that, it will stay at getting pit for mapping for ~5 minutes or more.

And that's where I am now... I'm at my wits end, can anyone help?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Rhoban:
Many people say that using a different USB port or a different cable might work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] yeronix:
Well, that didn't seem to work :/

Does anyone know if I would be able to take this into a Verizon store to get help? or if they would refuse due to root?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Rhoban:
If you want your warranty rights, then they might refuse it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] yeronix:
Well I don't have a warranty.. I have heard they can flash there to fix(?) stuff... would that work, would they even do that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Rhoban:
Well, since you're paying, they will certainly try, I guess.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] yeronix:
Well alright then.

Do you know of anything else I could try? I've tried a different cable, other ports, and another computer at this point.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Rhoban:
To be honest I am not very familiar with Odin problems. I just suggested what I saw on other threads.

I also stumbled upon a similar error when I tried to flash a stock rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] yeronix:
Well good news is it's working! I had been flashing NC5/NK1 thinking that's what I needed. Not the case! I tried flashing the latest GOC1 and it worked!!!!

I also uninstalled Kies3 and disables my antivirus, I think that played a large part in it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Rhoban:
Yes, Kies messes with Odin if they both run at the same time.

Hi guys, sorry for my bad english.

I'm writing this thread because wifi on my moto x has suddenly stopped work. Actually i'm on stock rom but before i was in CM12.1. I tried to flash everything but it's not turning on. Wipe cache, wipe system, nothing appened. Please help me :(

I tried CM 12.1, on my 1060, today for the first time. I couldn't get wifi going on my home network. I was using the latest nightly. Anyone know if it's just this one nightly or not?
[Moto X Q&A] whizinc:
incase of your wifi is not working and even after wiping and flashing custom rom again the problem persists... You need to flash a stock firmware on your phone through rsd lite to make sure that you dont have a hardware fault.. follow this thread http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/general/guide-newbies-how-to-revert-to-stock-t3104208/post60691640 and read each n everything clearly and implement it.. after this if your wifi doesnt work then it means you have a hardware problem.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adomol:
I have noticed a few people including myself who have had TWRP or the recovery partition some how corrupted after flashing a 5.1/5.1.1 kernel or rom.

Usually what seems to happen is that a 5.1 kernel/rom is flashed (data/cache f2fs for me) which leads to a bootloop. Restarting to bootloader and on to recovery ends up with twrp not loading.

I've noted that this has happened for me with mkernel a75, and also to a user flashing the latest phantom alpha, and to someone who flashed optipop which uses the latest lean kernel.

Flashing twrp again did not fix for me, had to flash the latest factory image.

I have only noticed this after android 5.1 and only on grouper. Anyway, I was just wondering if others are running into this issue. Maybe we can figure out what going on.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fwayfarer:
I had the same issue when I fully reset the device, it wouldn't even load stock recovery. Flashing TWRP again solved my issue so I can't speak to why it would not flash for you.

Whats not working:

LTE so far I have not figured out how to get LTE working.

Whats working:

everything but LTE - WiFi, Bluetooth, 3G, finger print scanner etc are all working.

Q: Can this be used as a daily driver?

A: Yes it can if you dont mind not having LTE. I have been using this and tweaking it over the last week or so.

ChangeLog

v1-00

- Initial Release

ToDo:

Fix LTE
Update SuperUser binary

Possibly remove
DiagMonAgent Need to inspect.

Honestly this is a WIP and I may continue to update it over time depending on if I can get newer firmware for the device. I based this of a Generic device that doesnt have any sprint / carrier branding.

Maybe this will get things rolling for this device.

I haven't seen anybody who has gotten world mate to work on the subdisplay.

Guessing it might have been something specific to a certain version of worlmate.

Either that or htc people just pulled that one out of their a**es like they always do.

I have tried all avaialbe athena roms except the Tmobile Ameo's and they have shown the same behaviour.

I have contacted worldmate but haven't gotten a response from them yet and dont think I will.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shoricu:
I'm absolutely new to Android world, have a Samsung Galaxy S4 mini and want to 'root' it

and gain control for further experiments.

It has installed Android 4.2.2 and I read some articles how to root.

Often it is specified to try to root only with a specific installed firmware.

If I do so and afterwards I make a firmware update the 'root' status will remain?

Or is it better to first update the firmware to the newest I can get

and than try to root the device?

Thank you! shoricu
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] broderp:
As the title states, I need help with understanding the basic steps on rooting the ASUS TF300.

I am not a programmer, I do not know the lingo or terms, and searching on the site has yielded very confusing results.

Basic steps?

1. Unlock boot loader - Why? What does this do?

2. TWRP? I have no clue, but I see references all over the place

3. Custom Recovery - What does this do? Do I need it?

4. Kernel - What is this?

5. ROM - What is this?

6. Install Super SU or SuperUser (what's the difference?, what does this do?

7. Install a root check app (to check if rooted I presume)

8. Install some form of file explorer (I have Fx File Explorer) and backup/control app (I have Titanium backup)- both paid forms

9. De-bloat with caution!

Where does the OEM firmware/software fit in this scheme? Does it exist as a backup or is it over-written? Do I have a choice?

As you can guess I'm lost. Reading threads after searching for "root TF300" or even the guides or the very good index, I have more questions than answers. How does one know what to do if the acronyms used are cryptic? (example TWRP~ what does this even stand for?)

I believe that not all steps are required, but I also believe the order I do things is important, and I'm concerned about bricking my TF300 by doing something wrong. I also don't want to assume that this is the same for every device or phones. (what steps work for a phone may not be the best for a tablet)

All I want to do is root and remove bloat. After I get this, I may consider upgrading the OS (kernel? Rom?) to something better.

Any links would be greatly appreciated. Please just bear in mind I'm so noob to this I don't know a ROM from a Kernel yet. (When I search, all answers are overly complicated developer definitions.)

Thank you!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] broderp:
Here is a "simple Step by Step" with notes in red as to how my mind tries to grasp this:

1. Upgrade your tablet to the desired firmware: 4.1 or 4.2 I assume they mean any OTA upgrade~ my tablet is current with JB 4.2.1 and I do not believe ASUS will plan on upgrading this anytime soon)

2. Be sure the correct drivers for your tablet are installed!! Installed where? on my PC? How do I know what are the correct drivers? Where can I get them?

3. Download the updated rooting toolkit: Updated Motochopper rooting toolkit -OK, I can do this!

4. Download TWRP for your firmware version:

- 4.1: TWRP 2.5.0.0 for Jellyeban 4.1

- 4.2: TWRP 2.5.0.0 for Jellybean 4.2 -This makes sense to me, as I am jellybean 4.2.1

5. Rename the downloaded TWRP blob file to twrp.blob and copy it to the root of your sdcard -what is a blob file? Is there a size requirement for the SD card? Does the SD have to be blank?

5. Extract the rooting toolkit to a place you like. -I assume the above mentioned motochopper? Does this answer my question above about the SD card?

== Part 2 - Rooting ==

1. Open up the folder where you placed the rooting toolkit. - with what program? A simple file explorer I assume?

2. Open the run file and follow the instructions -I hope there aren't any cryptic/over my head choices to make!

After installation the tablet should reboot and you should be rooted. -Does this install all the SuperSu stuff or is this it? What about customer recovery? Can I go back? what are the limitations of doing it this way assuming it works....

And this is just PART of the process! :eek:
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Berend de Boer:
I'll answer in logical order:

That's the Operating System that's running on your tablet, i.e. what is called Lollipop or KitKat, or even further what makes the difference between Android and iOS.

Your ROM may come with some preinstalled apps, but with some ROMs they are separate (i.e. the Google apps).

On your ASUS tablet you can, by default, only install ASUS supplied ROMs (i.e. updates).

In order to install a new ROM you need to unlock your device. You do that by unlocking the boot loader. Once you have unlocked the boot loader, you can install a custom recovery, such as TWRP (there are many custom recoveries, but for your device TWRP is recommended).

Once you have a custom recovery, installing a new ROM, or rooting your device, becomes a lot easier. No need to type in commands, but you can now use touch.

Your kernel is the most important part of your ROM. It's the software between apps and your actual hardware, the lowest level actually. The kernel determines if you can talk to certain pieces of hardware or not. If the kernel does not support certain hardware, that's it, you can't use it.

When your tablet boots up, the first thing it loads its the kernel, the kernel loads all other programs. Another responsibility of the kernel is to allow you to run multiple programs at once.

They allow you to execute programs with root privileges (i.e. no limit to privileges, can do anything), but also give you some protection so malicious programs cannot become root: you have to give explicit permissions for every app.

Yes.

Optional, pick whatever you like.

No clue!

Firmware often is part of the hardware: it gets written to special memory, and "sticks", i.e. when you reboot it stays there. If you get a T300 you should let ASUS run all the updates as it installs new firmware. Some firmware gets written when your device boots, meaning the special program, the kernel, starts, and at some point writes updated firmware to hardware.

So firmware is software that makes hardware a bit more flexible: else everything is hard-wired, if there's a problem you can't fix it, but with software you sometimes can fix a hardware issue.

Hope this helps!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Okiera29:
First, to unlock the bootloader, you need to go the asus site and register your tablet. Then you can download the unlock app from the asus site as well. Next, move the unlock app from where ever it downloaded on your pc to your tablet. You can put it on the tablet RAM or on an SD card, it doesn't matter. On your tablet, go into the settings menu. under security(I think it is there) and enable 'unknown sources' for app installation. I haven't had the stock ROM for so long, I can't recall where that option is. Run the unlock app. It may take a couple times to unlock the tablet. WARNING! this will void your warrenty! So if your tablet is relatively new, think hard about this. Once your tablet is unlocked, then you can worry about TWRP and ROMS

TWRP is a custom recovery. It is officially Team Win Recovery Project, hence TWRP. It is a program that will allow you to back up your tablet before you make changes(very important in case you screw something up) and a host of other things including flashing custom ROMs. If you go into the LP 5.1 for the TF300 thread in the development area, it will have all the links for stuff like the current TWRP, Gapps packages and the newest LP ROM. It is great for our tablets and really wakes it up. Oh yeah, the TWRP site will have instructions for flashing TWRP on your newly unlocked tablet as well.

All this seems very intimidating for noobs, I was one about 4 months ago. I now feel sort of not-noobish. To install TWRP you will need either Fastboot or ADB on your computer. Google Fastboot or ADB and you should find plenty of answers. There are also 'lite' versions of Fastboot out there too. If you are on Windows 8 or 8.1 you will need one of those. Windows doesn't like fastboot or ADB for some reason
