This is the Odin flashables for the PH1 update retrieved from Kies3. I find it different that the ROM is in four files, and I don't know how to combine them. You will actually need to select all four check boxes in Odin 3.11 or newer, and select the correct files based on their prefixes. Just a reminder: remember to backup everything so you don't lose anything!

Thank you for this! I have a G900P I had flashed over to boost and used for several months and now going to flash back to sprint.

Thank you for this, if I'm wanting to keep my custom recovery and be rooted would I just select the BL, CP, and CSC then flash the stock rooted in TWRP? And can I load all 3 in Odin at once or is there an order I should flash in? I remember when I flashed to OK2 I had to do a specific order and pull the battery in between, wasn't sure if that's still the case. Thanks in advance.
I honestly don't know about the custom recovery using the Odin flash. You could try it, but you'd have to reinstall your SU binaries. These files will not work in TWRP. As for loading the files in Odin, yes, you load all of them at the same time. I would recommend trying the prerooted ROM I posted first.

Thank you, the pre-rooted ROM is in 7zip, doesn't it have to be zipped? Should I just extract and zip?
**edit** Nevermind, I bit the bullet and flashed the Odin file then my custom recovery afterwards. All is working, thank you for the guide and files.
Problem extracting files from the PHI zip
I'm trying to extract the files to a folder, but getting "unknown compression method" error so files won't extract. Is this common? Anyone seen this before? Is there another way to extract the files so I can load them individually into Odin?
Thanks

Okay, I'm currently at 2.3.5 KJ3 firmware, with CF-Root 5.0 kernel.
So... I was thinking of installing either a CheckROM RevolutionaryHD ROM or CyanogenMod ROM. Problem is, I'm still not familiar with this ROM installation process because it's not mentioned there...
So, I wonder if I can use CWM or Odin for this? (If I can do either way, how should I do it? Or is this always depends on the ROM itself?)
Also, final question:
Let's say I found a ROM that is based on XI4, (and as I stated before, mine is currently on KJ3) do I have to flash my firmware to XI4 first?
What do you mean it's not mentioned there? There are several tens of lines explaining the installation process for CM7. Which part is causing you problems?
no, you do not have to flash to XI4 first
follow developers instructions to install custom roms are usually installed through cwm.
stock roms through odin.
CyanogenMod rom are in a special category by itself and and are for people who understand the flashing process thoroughly as you could brick your phone.
stay with one of the custom or stock roms till you understand the flashing process as you can recover from them easily by just flashing a stock rom.

Gotcha, I'll be careful then
Bu the way, if I were to flash new firmware using CMW, which file should I put into sdcard directory, the huge TAR file, or just the kernel? (considering I'm just flashing a stock ROM)

if using cwm, it will be a zip file which you copy into your internal sd card and then go to cwm recovery, install zip, choose zip to install then yes.
if it is a tar file then use odin.

Err.. In the stock ROM thread, it was 7zip and they are in *.exe format, I guess I gotta zip them again, eh?
Okay, so is that the big sized file (200+ MB) or just the kernel?
it is the kernal, modem and firmware in one package.
It sounds like you are tryint to use an odin rom in cwm.
which rom are you trying to flash ?
cwm flashable roms come in a standard zip format, if is 7z then it is not a cwm file but odin file.
I'm thinking of trying CheckROM 3.1.1, but then I'm just afraid that it might not suit me... (and everyone says that everyone has different opinion, so you gotta try everything)
And if it doesn't, I'm not sure how am I gonna return to my previous condition, which is KJ3 & CF-Root 5. Hence the reason why I ask this question.
Btw Cosmic Blue, this is the one I'm talking about, the firmwares (ROM, I suppose?) in this thread
PS: I'm still confused with the terminologies (even though I read about them already several times), so if I made mistake, please tell me so!
those files are flashed through Odin as they are tar files or md5 files.
they are considered stock.
checkRom is a cwm flash rom as it is packaged in standard zip format.
dvdlesher
have patience you are learning but slowly.
to return to your original condition just flash the stock firmware from the thread you have linked to using Odin.

Do I need to do those wipes, like:
- wipe cache and delvik cache
and/or perhaps
- factory reset?
wiping cache and delvik is usually encouraged before flashing.
factory reset is done only if you encounter problems.
So... What would probably happen if I do wipe cache and delvik right now? (Assuming that I'm still in KJ3 + CF-Root 5.0 (haven't flashed checkROM yet))
Would that erase my ROM data, therefore I won't be able to boot until I flashed a ROM?
no, it will just clean any cookies and stray data left in the caches.
It will not remove any saved data or apps.

OK I have read creepy's guide and several other ones and downloaded all the files.
So far the steps that I understand:
1. Recovery Wipe
2. Download Mobile Odin on your phone
3. Use Mobile Odin to flash custom kernel by selecting zImage file. (Apparently I need to use a gingerbread Kernel even though I am going to ICS? this I also don't really understand)
4. He says you can use Mobile Odin to flash a ROM but never explains how. The way I did this before is by loading a .tar file into the PDA section of ODIN on PC and then just clicking start while my phone is in download mode. I looked into Mobile Odin and found no option saying ROM or PDA. My options are Kernel, System, Data, Cache, Param, Modem, or Hidden. So where do I load the .zip/.tar file?
Help would be very appreciated thank you.
You can not use GB kernel on ICS rom. To flash kernel you should put zImage to kernel section on mobile odin and push flash firmware.
To flash rom via mobile odin you should put tar or md5 rom file to system section of mobile odin. Push flash firmware.

if the zImage file is inside of the .tar file does that mean flashing the ROM will automatically flash the kernel as well?
Also creepy specifically states to use a gingerbread kernel, "You must use a Gingerbread kernel when using this method. If you use an ICS kernel while your phone is running Gingerbread, it will not boot!!!"

If tar or md5 file have zImage, mobile odin will leave old kernel.
If you want to flash ICS rom You should put tar or md5 file of rom in system and ICS kernel of this rom in kernel.
f you want to flash GB rom You should put tar or md5 file of rom in system and GB kernel of this rom in kernel.
Creepy states don't mix GB kernel with ICS rom and v.v.
If rom file have inside hidden, modem, zImage, system (factoryfs), cache. You can on mobil odin push "open file or archive .tar, .tar.md5, .exe, and separate file" and choose rom tar or md5 file. Mobile odin will put all file in right plase.

Apparently these are all .zip files? How am I suppose to do this using .zip files?
This is the ROM I am trying to flash:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1650948
The .zip file has only 5 files inside of it when extracted, cache.img, factoryfs.img, hidden.img, modem.bin, and zImage with no specified file extension.
When you said it will "leave the old kernel" do you mean it will leave it in place, or leave it to the new kernel inside of the .tar file?
So should I extract the .zip file use the zImage as my kernel and load the whole .tar file under system?
Or do I need to use a different kernel like fluxxi?
EDIT: I was also curious about this ROM, would it be difficult to install? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1752232

First rom you should open with "open file" and mobile odin will put all him self. And you can flash. Kernel and modem will be changed to rom kernel and modem.
Second rom is not difficult but you should flash with cwm recovery.

Also for the second link, I'm guessing CWM is Clockwork Mod? is this a mobile software or PC based? I googled it and went to their main website and found no download link for anything similar to ODIN. I also searched for cwm recovery in play store and found an app called rom manager, is this it?

It's same. put in "open file".
After installing rom you can change kernel via mobile odin.
After installing you will have a root and it' very easy.
You can change kernel to siyah kernel nomswap http://www.mediafire.com/?81odsaa6o6ib165. Take from zip file zImage and install via mobile odin. After you will have root and cwm recovery.
But it is for I777 based stock rom. For other rom you should install siyah mswap http://www.mediafire.com/?vihwj8l5wv8v263

Ok great I know have all the files selected in mobile odin. I wanna go over this with you one more time before i begin the flash to make sure I made no mistakes.
1. I did not do a factory reset because I am still on gingerbread(rooted) is this ok?
2. I used "open file" as you said and it placed all the proper files in the right location.
3. There are two options that I'm not sure what they do, "wipe data and cache" and "Wipe Dalvik cache" Should I check both of these?
As soon as you tell me I'm fine ill start the flash! thanks again!
I impatiently started the flash I hope i didnt mess anything up

It ensures that there are no "left behinds" from prior ROMs or kernels that could (and often do) conflict with the new firmware you're flashing. Many of the problems that people tend to blame on ROMs or kernels are actually often resolved when they go back and wipe fully before the install. May as well get it out of the way in the first place instead of ending up pulling your hair out (or frustrating the dev enough to do the same) because it wasn't done with a clean slate.

You don't need to be rooted to flash a rom or install a recovery. Root is for access to the system files of the rom after it boots and loads.

All the instructions I've found require the Note to rooted first.
Rom already on sdcard.
Recovery tar in Odin.
Flash recovery with Odin
Boot into new recovery and flash rom.
Rom will be rooted once booted.

There are ways to reset it so don't even worry about until the day comes where you need to.

Like the above poster said, but skip the root step. So CWR using Odin and occasionally, then TWRP by using CWR, done.

Then.... We need the TWRP file to put on our SD...
Any link to the TWRP too please?

See the super everything thread. The tar file is there. The TWRP zip is in the original development thread.
Hey guys. Thanks for the responses.
I see that some of you are recommending to odin CWR and then use CWR to flash TWRP.
On the TWRP page there is this link to the following page http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/sgh-i717/ which has the different TWRP files and there is a TWRP .tar file. File name: openrecovery-twrp-2.3.2.3-quincyatt.img.tar
Can I just odin the above file instead of odin CWR first?
Where can I find the latest ODIN? I've looked for downloads but haven't found it. A link would be much appreciated.

this is the full OD3 stock Rom tar.MD5 file
it is odin Flashable.
I will warn you alot of people are saying once they upgraded to this bootloader they couldnt get OA6 roms to flash so beware.
any download mirrors would be appreciated
Here is another link but this one you have to unzip then use Odin to flash the tar file inside thanks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=61215093
download
use odin 3.10.6 but i believe 3.10.0 will work also
put the file in the AP slot and flash
you will most likely lose root but here it is any way
https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=cd08ce789eb6b040!141
It should be noted that if anyone flashes this firmware they will NOT be able to flash back to a previous firmware.

Wasn't sure about chainfire's root method on this version since I'm not running it, so hopefully it still works. @Ramer has uploaded this as well to a file hosting site so if he doesn't see this, ask him for a link for his download link so you can add a mirror site to the OP as an alternate if you like.

Here the file I put up on AFH: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952615017
I have to question the title of this thread though. This is NOT flashable in recovery. It's the zip file that must be unzipped on a PC and then Odin the tar file. It's the original one from Sammobile.
The OP gives correct instructions, I just think the word flashable is bound to confuse someone.

You are correct. It's probably just my hesitation to using the word flashable and odin at the same time. I've lost count of how many users see a zip and think "I'll flash this"
Tried this and I still show BOA6 software and baseband ? Also after I installed it on odin I didnt like it much so I was able to flash MOAR after I flashed OD3. weird

Pull your battery out. wait a few seconds. put battery back and boot into odin/download mode. vol down+home+power
then odin the tar
it will work
Had the same problem, wasn't able to flash back to BOA6 using odin had to flash OD3 to get the phone back and running
not sure about rooting, but my hotspot is still enabled from previous root that i loss when updating to OD3
You can still flash OA6 roms as.long.as.you have a custom recovery and.root

Yes. Once flashed don't reboot. Pull the battery and go back into download mode and flash twrp. Img in the ap slot
You can find the file at Moars op under recovery and odin
After you flash the custom recovery image pull battery boot into recovery from recovery hit reboot. It will then prompt you that there's no root and would you like to root. Choose yes. Tada

I did as instructed, but the TWRP that i loaded did not ask for a root option, it did some updates, then it automatically reboots the phone, I pull the battery, then reboot it back into recovery again, and reboot it back into recovery from the recovery screen, it ask me to install super user, i say yes, then reboot back into system now it has a icon that says Superuser installer, I click on it and choose TWRP, gives me error
Hey everyone, I gave up on my note about a year ago (rip, still miss the swappable batteries and easy back button) and would like to reset it. From what I remember, the phone has TWRP installed and boots to the stock rom slot every boot. How can I reset this to full stock? Can I use the built in recovery or would that have been wiped?

Thank you for the assistance, I just want to confirm I am doing this right.
I got the file from here https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note3/SM-N900V/VZW/download/N900VVRUEOF1/54179/
Its a single .md5 file, named N900VVRUEOF1_N900VVZWEOF1_N900VVRUEOF1_HOME.tar.md5
and a dll file, do I need this dll?
The instructions https://paste.ee/p/vaaNq
Say "Add each file to it's respective field in Odin v3.13.1. Use CSC_*** if you want to do a clean flash or HOME_CSC_*** if you want to keep your apps and data."
I want to do a full wipe, does that mean I rename the file or not? And which slots do I check / load files into, just AP?

If you only have one file put it in the AP slot. Don't worry about the CSC, check or uncheck the right boxes and start Odin. If it doesn't wipe everything and I think it will, you can do a factory reset after the install. Good luck.
