Instructions to Install Tar Files with Odin
• The full tar does not wipe Data or internal SD.
You may want to do a full wipe in custom recovery before flashing full tar if you have issues with data apps.
• Extract (unzip) the firmware file
• Extract Odin -- Odin v3.09 Download Link
• Power down the phone (or pull the battery, it is important to flash the OTA from a powered off state)
• Open Odin v3.09
• Boot the phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
• Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
• Add the firmware/recovery file to AP / PDA (depending on version of Odin)
• For modems, add the file to CP / PHONE (depending on version of Odin)
• Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
• Click the start button, sit back and wait a few minutes

I think its possible to flash a Sprint SM-G900P 4.4.2 rom on this phone if you follow the following steps:
1. Have custom recovery already installed and a backup in place in case you need to flash back.
2. Place the rom and stock kernel on phone SD
3. Boot into custom recovery, do a full wipe
4. Install the SM-G900P touchwiz based rom, do not reboot yet
5. Flash the stock SM-G860P _NG3_Stock_Kernel.zip provided in Post #1.
6. Restart the phone

@SeanRinVA and @wolfleatherworks :
You guys have showed interest in getting MOAR on your SM-G860P phones, so I thought I'd mention you here to help you find this thread. Make sure to have a nanoid backup beforehand and let everyone know how it went.

I'd watched the MOAR thread for a while, but it wasn't compatible with the SM-G860P (hung boot).

@tdunham just posted this yesterday and the second post this morning, but yes, he's looking for someone to test it (neither of us have the G860). If you have the time, could you give this a try and post back success or failure? Especially if you can get MOAR installed.

I can test it tonight. I've downloaded the Kernel...now to download the latest MOAR.

I've got an S5 Sport, just picked up today. Will be testing the kernel with MOAR.

Well it doesn't seem to be boot looping, I'll let it sit and cook for a bit longer. Currently it's just flashing the android white text and disappearing, not sure how long it should normally be on 1st boot.

Doesn't seem to have worked, I waited a good while but it didn't go any further. Attempted downloading your Rooted Deodexed test but it downloads as a 0kb file.
EDIT: Tried another mirror, seems to be downloading properly now.

Got it downloaded, copied over via adb -- attempted install, getting (bad) - installation aborted.

I'm not sure what adb was for. You don't have drivers installed with a running rom so you can copy everything over to the phone?
Did you download the stock rom last night because the stock rom last night had a problem and has since been replaced. The one you should have the same name as the link in the OP. I even flashed it to make sure it would at least run.

I was using ADB since I didn't want to restore from backup until I was done testing. I'll try re-downloading and doing it over again to see if I can get it working, I'm off work today so now is the perfect time to try it further.

So this has me stumped -- For some unknown reason, I seem to be unable to copy over SM-G860P_NG3_ROOTED_DEODEXED.TEST.zip using MTP. I fiddled with drivers for the last hour and i'm at a loss -- it doesn't seem to be a driver problem, I can copy over MOAR and other files, but it won't let me copy over your test at all.

I accidentally added a space in the filename. I did flash it to test but now I think I removed the space in the name before doing so. If possible, try downloading to pc first and let me know how it goes in case I need to reupload it to the hosting site with a corrected filename.

So, I'm not attempting to be dumb here, but it might be inevitable.
G900 stock roms boot with G860 kernel?

I use MOAR ROM(havent tried any other roms yet) for 900P and the the kernel zip in post #1 and using steps in post #2 I am running on it now

Great. Being a stock-based ROM, I would imagine that all stock Roms work with G860 kernel. Consequently, all AOSP ROMs should work with a kernel compiled for G860. There are 2 new G860s in the house and my intent was to compile CM11/12 for the Sport; however, if all that is necessary is the kernel&modules I won't bother pulling blobs.
Thanks. The phones aren't entirely at my disposal or I would do more testing.

Redownloaded still a no go it just go to opening update and then fails sorry for bad news thanks for trying

It works!
I used the instructions here to install the rom for the G900P as linked to below. I've messed with it only for about 20 minutes but it worked perfectly fine! So much bloatware though, and I'm coming from the S3 scene and am not too familiar with what the G900P had to offer in terms of custom ROMs. If anyone knows a good lightweight one with powerful customization options please let me know so I can try it. I am doing my first backup of this ROM as I type this and will also be doing a restore of my previous ROM (stock with the bloatware removed manually) for now and will probably tweak the MOAR ROM more later this week. Just want to say thank you to everyone in this thread, you guys are amazing!

Well, at least you guys can run a custom rom now.
I wish I could be more help but I have the SM-G900P but thought I'd take a shot at getting the Sport a little help.

I saw a couple of links in the recovery thread for the sport full resotore.. One link the files are over a gig, the other one is for about 848mb.. I wounder which is the real deal... The first link I could not download crap, but the second one I did. BTW is the modem included in your file for your rom?I was woundering because if I flash MOAR were can I find the modem or does it matter

[Q] Quick question for first timer

First time rooting / installing rom quick question
Looking to flash phone to villianrom 3.0 from what i read on the 2.4 version older posting it says to root with CF-root first. In the new 3.0 version posting it says it includes Ninphetamine kernel and the instructions assume you have clockwork mod already and can install zip from sd, Do i still need to CF-root before running 3.0 or does the Ninphetamine kernel Root automatically from the 3.0 zip??
Thanks
You need first of all a kernel wit CWM then you can flash custom firmwares through it from a .zip-file on your sd.
The new version will bring root with it through the kernel but you are not able to flash it unless you have CWM if it comes as a .zip-file
So for the first time flash a rooted kernel that includes CWM through "Odin" and then you are free to flash anything you want through CWM.
Hope that answers your question.

Could this be a problem I am having
I have rooted my phone and copied villianrom to my sd card.
When I go through CWM and delete wipe does that also wipe my root?
When I try to install the ROM i keep getting error messages
Did you install the Ninphetamine kernel first...
No good complaining its not working if you skip steps....
What kernel did you flash to get CWM ?
Should all work fine if you follow the steps presented in the VillainRom post...

im not to familiar with Frankenstein kernels. what you should of done is rooted first your phone with one of the CF kernels..do that through odin..that will get your phone rooted..once you do that then you can flash any rom you like but always follow the guide from the thread of the rom you going to flash
EDIT: if you flash CF-root your rooted..go to development original and go on the thread and follow the guide...its through odin if i remember well its been a while lol but once you do that you will have all the perks of been rooted...
once you do that download the rom you want and just flash away through recovery or CWM manager....but do your reading and back up your rom first before you do flash

So If I flash that Kernal and then install villianrom through CWM then it should work and still be rooted?
Nope that isn't CWM.
Jep, follow the steps for CF-root, then from the rom and then all will be fine and with root.

Ok think I am getting it now, not sure why I am so stupid this time as I have rooted my Hero and Orange San Francisco first time around.
One last thing.
Is ROM Manager and CWM the same?
I have ROM Manager installed and my phone is rooted, can I not just flash the CF-ROOT from my sd card?
Instructions - If you already have CF-Root
- Copy the zip file to your SD card
- Stop sharing SD card with computer over USB, unplug the cable, etc
- Applications -> CWM -> Flash kernel. Select the ZIP file on your SD card.
- Done
I think RomManager is just an app that can flash roms, do backups and other things by using CWM.
But I'm not that familiar with Rom Manager so I don't know much about it.
As I said I don't know what things you can do with RomManager but I would flash the kernel with Odin, thats the save way.
For the instructions...I think that means if you have a previous version of CF-Root and already have CWM.

So installing that Kernal will not cause any harm if my phone is already rooted?
No.
Even if it would you could just flash a stock firmware back again and start from zero.

Another thing I have noticed is when I wiped my phone it reset itself as normal but all my media and photos where still there even though I copied them over to my sd card just incase, is this normal?
No problem.
Jep that is normal. It just wipes your system. If you want to wipe your phone of all your files and reset the system than you need to do it with a combination in the dialer. *2767*3855# but watch it...the process starts right after you insert the # no question if you really want to!

[CWM][TWRP] For the Samsung X Cover 2 aka GT-S7710 aka skomer

Hi,
a few weeks ago I got a Samsung X Cover 2 after my loved Defy boke down...Thanks to the rooted image that theboegl created I examined the device and started to port CWM to the device. Some photos of CWM on the S7710 are here. Sorry - cant post outside links before I did 10 posts....attached.:silly: Thanks to OliverG96 who worked on CM for the S3 mini that is quite similiar to the skomer it wasn't a hard job to get it running.
The source is on my github account. (no link - see above - just google: github flxo). Feel free to comment and improve....
Code:
sudo heimdall flash --pit skomer.pit --Kernel2 recovery.img

TWRP Changelog:

Thanks for your work!
For those who want to try this beta-build:
download the newest odin-flashable build from here - thanks to @flxo
start Odin >= 3.07
select the downloaded CMW in the PDA section
unselect autoreboot if you would like to test it after flashing immediately
plug your XCover2 in
flash it
let it reboot/if you want to test cwm now:
power off by holding the power button
hold Volume +, Home and Power button simultaneous
you should see cwm
done
BTW: no one should just follow me by doing a reboot recovery, though I have created an odin-flashable restore - build 12.07.2013 for getting out of the "boot to recovery" loop without loosing data.

Hi,
a few weeks ago I got a Samsung X Cover 2 after my loved Defy boke down...
Thanks to the rooted image that theboegl created I examined the device and started to port CWM to the device. Some photos of CWM on the S7710 are here. Sorry - cant post outside links before I did 10 posts....attached.:silly:
Thanks to OliverG96 who worked on CM for the S3 mini that is quite similiar to the skomer it wasn't a hard job to get it running.
The source is on my github account. (no link - see above - just google: github flxo). Feel free to comment and improve....
I did not try yet to flash a zip with the CWM port but so far the graphics look good and the SD is mounted. I attached the recovery image to this post:
Hang on.
cheers,
flxo
sorry for the short description, but it's Friday 9pm and I really shouldn't sit in front of my computer...

Tried flashing, works like a charm. Just hold volume up, home and power, let go of power when you feel vibration and keep hold volume up and home button and you're in cwm! Gonna try port first custom rom, cm10 from s2 and see if it truly works
Hello,
I have just tested : very good ! very good !
Thanks a lot.
:laugh:
Works perfectly super !:laugh::good:
backup: ok
restore: ok
Apology : restore works fine
install zip : from sd card; ext.sd card ok

I changed the recovery.fstab to mount the external SD on /sdcard. Storing backups on the real SD is IMHO more convenient.
The updated image is: 20130606_recovery.img
Thanks to TheBoegl for the hint.

Thats great. For everyone who want to flash this with odin try this image - it is the packed version of @flxo.
I have reupped the previous recoveries because they were unflashable with odin.
I really apologize for that mistake my Finnish, Slovenian and Bulgarian members if Odin is stuck, just unplug your phone and select the new image, plug it in again and flash.
This double post is to inform the few of you who have downloaded the file already.
I created an Odin flashable .tar.md5 of the 20130606_1_ version. I tried it myself, works fine.
One nitpicky question: flxo, shouldn't it be 20130706? It's July after all

20130606_1_ fixed that for me, the device froze for half a minute and then rebooted into recovery.
EDIT:
Bad news: Somehow, the phone exclusively reboots into recovery now. I don't know if it's due to choosing "reboot recovery" or something else...

I've added the description and link in the second post.

Need help rooting my GS5 (SM-G900T)

I need to root my S5 to enable a 3rd party SystemUI tuner. I've tried several one-click rooting methods, but none of them seem to work. My device runs Android 6.0.1. I can provide any additional screenshots or specs if needed.

of course I can help. the best way to do it is to install a custom recovery, my favorite one is TWRP. Then you grab your favorite custom rom and flash it from there. I also recommend picking something new but if you enjoy touchwiz there are plenty of nice touchwiz roms out there. Such as smallwiz version 1. do not install version 8 its very laggy and has a ton of bugs. But the best rom out there is resurrection remix rom for the s5. hope I helped !

Ok this did help, however i know extremely little about installing custom recoveries. So I need to know:
1. What will I need to do it
2. What are the steps to do it, and...
3. Will installing a custom recovery wipe my storage?
I'm sorry if I'm being irritating, but I'm only just about to start computer science as a freshman.

I am sorry for the late reply my power was out due to a storm, Firs you need to install Odin, then you need to download TWRP, I recommend TWRP version 2.8.7.0 its faster even though the graphics look pretty bad. Next flash TWRP using AP on Odin, (Phone needs to be in download mode). On the Samsung devices TWRP wont install unless you do it twice so flash TWRP twice but the second time you flash unlick reboot on the options in odin. Once flashed a second time reboot into recovery, congratulations you have a custom firmware, now download your custom rom of choice I recommend small wiz its a debloated version of touchwiz, download it on your computer and then transfer it over to your phone on the download section after that you're going to want to wipe your wipe your phone. Wipe everthing except internal storage and sd card. next go to install on TWRP then navigate to the download folder click on Small wiz or whatever custom rom you have and then flash it. then once its done reboot and you're done. this will take a while to boot on the first time. its compressing a ram disk and installing a new kernel. dont be scared.
I am having issues rooting my device. I am running 6.0.1 marshmallow and with the march 1st, 2017 security patch. I am using a mac and am able to get odin v 1.85 running on my computer using wine bottler but for some reason when I connect it odin doesn't pick it up. I have reinstalled the drivers and it's still doesn't work. It works fine using Kies. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated or point me to the right thread thanks.

I cannot install Odin on my computer, because my only computer is a Mac. My only method of installing TWRP without a computer was on my Galaxy Tab, which was already rooted, and I used Flashify to flash it. Since my S5 has no root, I can't flash TWRP with Flashify.

Yes. My S5 is running the factory ROM I bought it with.
I resolved the issue. I flashed TWRP using my school laptop and installed Lineage 14.1. I got root by flashing a file to enable it in settings.
I have to say, Lineage is a LOT faster than the stock ROM, and it looks a lot cleaner too. Thanks for the help guys

[ROM] [H918] H91810q/r/s/t/u Stock ROM TWRP Flashable Zip KEEP ROOT!

with very little activity lately for the LGV20, specifically the H918 T-Mobile variant, I created a TWRP flashable package for the recent H91810q release. this zip flash every partition included in the latest KDZ package with the exception of recovery to keep TWRP. standard disclaimer applies, you do all of this at YOUR OWN risk! because 10q is not rootable, you need to be root'd before flashing this! failure to do so will probably cause you to lose root and/or lose TWRP! and worst of all, because 10q can't be downgraded to 10j (last version where you can still obtain root via dirtycow) because of Anti-RollBack, you're fscked!
NOTE1: you can find the partitions that will be flashed in the updater-script. to be extra cautious you can back up all of the partitions that will be overwritten with the following: dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/{partition} of=/external_sd/backup/{partition}.img.
NOTE2: boot partition has been modified only to remove rctd, nothing else so I consider this to still be stock
Instructions:
download H91810u.zip file listed below and put on microSD card
download your choice of root and put on microSD card, choose from either Magisk or SuperSU *Note: v12.0 of Magisk does not work with the LGV20 device in general and v14.0 is recommended.
backup any data from internal "SD card"
boot into TWRP (requires TWRP recovery to already be installed)
create a TWRP backup of the device
flash zip from microSD card by using "Install"
FLASH YOUR CHOICE OF ROOT - Flashing root is VERY IMPORTANT BEFORE REBOOTING!
reboot
profit!
Download:
H91810q.zip
old 10q md5sum: 8c2e76ded9759a63b1ffac86f3941649
new 10q md5sum: c7d4086b3a0a786d1501ef7e4ce22f32 - re-zipped in Linux for proper alignment
H91810r.zip
wrong 10r md5sum: 9e2e1f8c56079d7bf629ce5e375d7551 (this is actually the md5sum for the KDZ)
correct 10r md5sum: 194b2bc41aa6dbdd7b9a371392f7b930
H91810s.zip
10s md5sum: f187fdefe4c3612c5811e9fbeb0748c5
H91810t.zip - rctd and triton both disabled, previous versions only removed rctd
10t md5sum: b00c2f644b15eb15e459c48830caa5da
H91810u.zip - rctd and triton both disabled, previous versions only removed rctd
10u md5sum: f51b2b11a30dc448b0da0edc750bb587
Flashing Process (what flashing this zip does):
flash necessary partition images with the exception of recovery (to keep TWRP) from the KDZ
rename /system/recovery-from-boot.p to /system/recovery-from-boot.bak to prevent stock recovery from being installed on boot
wipes dalvik-cache and cache
BIG thanks to @McNutnut on guidance, as well as his script to put all of this together!
also thanks to @bullghost for the KDZ extractor (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600575)
@Tilde88 for the original updater-script template w/root (https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/us996-nrd90m-modded-notsostock-rom-v5-1-t3526542)

Dude, thanks for whipping this out so fast! (TWSS) I will get right on making a debloated rom from this. Is it ARB 1?
So I HAVE to flash root? Sometimes I don't flash root because of my gear S3 watch.
I just flashed but still showing 10p. But the kernel info shows Sept 12. So the kernel is updated but wondering on why it still shows 10p on software info @ about phone.

yep, for some reason using Windows to create zip files causes inconsistencies. I've zipped up everything in Linux this time and double checked the updater script to make sure everything is good to go and am uploading it as I type... I've already updated the OP with the new md5sum and the link should remain the same. I'll give a heads up once it's live

First of be advised that this is anti roll back. Once on it you can't go backwards to other older roms. In reference to your problem you'll have to do a battery pull. Put battery back in. Now hold down volume down and power button at the same time, when you see LG screen release power button for two seconds then push again holding down power. During all this never release volume down. Now you'll get a reset screen with yes and no option. Use volume key to choose yes, twice..... This will get you back to TWRP. In your case I wouldn't even bother with back up but you can try again if want. What I would do is flash something else that I know works. Then decide from there what to do... Maybe redownload again. May be corrupt some how. I assume your on h918. Hope so! Good luck.

Well we really don't know if your system went to 10q now, so........ You can try again. On both, the backup or 10q. Since you know now how to get to TWRP with battery pull you can try both, see what works. Try backup first. If it doesn't work you may have system in 10q now being you backed up a 10k system may not work now. If it doesn't try q again. If that doesn't work then download 10p or redownload 10q and side load on TWRP from computer. Then flash again. These are steps I would do.. if someone tells you different then it's your choice. Different ways for different things.

so 10q is showing up. i am having issues with the modem i believe because i dont get tmobile recepetion and as soon as i put into airplane mode, the error message stops.
I haven't tried the 10p weta kernel yet but it may not work being this stock kernel on 10q is updated to the September security patch. May try later today.
First off, thanks for keeping my beloved H918 alive!. Thought all future dev for the V20 was dead.
Now a question. Any timeframe on a debloated version? Not in a hurry mind you, just curious.
