so, i flashed the kitkat bootloader from odin, then flashed the zip from philz touch recovery. the kernel splash screen stayed on for a long time, then the screen went out, and it loaded to the kernel splash, then to recovery. then i realized i hadnt wiped, so i flashed the kitkat stock rom through odin, installed philz touch recovery, did a full wipe, then installed the zip, and the same thing happened. being a new member with less than 10 posts i cant post on the official thread, so... whats the deal? what could the problem be?
EDIT: my bad everyone. i found a misleading link to philz, the newest version in that thread was not the newest version.

in aroma choose the stock kernel option. I had the same bootloop problem ....it kept going into recovery.
After choosing the stock kernel everything was smooth.
off course pls confirm that you are using the correct ROM version
for 5100 version is 1.2
1.3 is only for 5110
I didn't see any kernel options let me make a nandroid and run it again. and yeah I have the 5110. Thanks
hey, i reinstalled it, there were no kernel options, but i left the bootanimation option on stock samsung, and i had been using the XAR region, so i tried btu this time, because thats what the stock rom i have installed is. still crashes to recovery
EDIT: and after restoring my nandroid, i get to the rom splash screen, and it just loops there.

Here is the link to Stock KK:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=29611
Also download Odin v3.09 from the same link.
Then follow these instructions:
1) Unzip the Download zip file, you will get N5110XXDNE1_N5110OXADNE1_HOME.tar.md5
2) Put the tablet in Download mode
3) Install N5110XXDNE1_N5110OXADNE1_HOME.tar.md5 using "PA" option of ODIN.
4) It will take a while, let it finish.
5) If that works, reboot back to download mode
6) Install latest Philz recovery, using ODIN's PA option.
7) Reboot into recovery, and install any custom ROMS.
Note: This will trip your KNOX counter

thats the thing.... i flashed it, i have stock rooted kitkat running fine, i have philz recovery running fine, but when i try to flash the custom kitkat rom, i wipe, flash the zip, the aroma installer boots i choose a few options, the aroma installer completes, then i reboot and it just crashes to recovery, no matter how many times i try, how many factory resets i do, anything. knox is tripped, but i can't run the rom. i had the 4.2.2 custom touchwiz from the same developer running fine, but then i decided i had to have kitkat, and.... nothing. it simply won't run.
if it matters, i am already running the same stock rom you linked to, 4.4.2 btu
EDIT: just for the record, i am not new to this in general, only this particular device - my sprint galaxy s3 is running carbon rom, my galaxy gear is running null rom, i flashed N3BULA on my dad's verizon galaxy note two, and ive already decided on a rom for the note 3 i am getting at the end of july.
this is just my first time encountering this problem, all assistance with this matter is greatly appreciated.

Ok, so first try to validate the MD5 of the file that you are installing.
if you are installing "CivZ-FlexNote8.0_KK-Rev1.3-N5110_signed.zip" then the MD5 should match as below:
b8abeb1ec9535ef526d02ef402788359
Validate the MD5 in PC as well as Tablet. Sometime you get a good download on PC, but when you copy it to Phone/tablet file might not get copied properly.
Second option you can try to install another 4.4.2 based ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2763274
Again validate the MD5 before installing.

Hey, those who were having problems, you probably got the wrong recovery. i had two versions of philz on my computer, and i flashed philz 5 instead of philz 6.
http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/n5110/philz_touch_6.41.6-n5110.tar.md5

Hey
I been looking in the forums, but I havent be able to finde if there is a root for kitkat.
Do anyone know if that is one and if so, can you plz link to the thread
Thaning you in advance
Yes: http://autoroot.chainfire.eu
Although I have a p600 and his method worked fine for JB and KK.
Don't use the P6700/601 cf-autoroot on your P605. It will brick it...
The old cf-autoroot is for JB and doesn't work on KK...
Go to the Original developement thread and look at the TWRP 2.7.0.1 thread. It will supply answers and links...

Root p605kitkat 4.4.2
Hi All, hope I'm posting this is the right forum .Im quite a beginner in Android terms so please be patient with me ...
I have a Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 sm-p605 and use it while travelling , i dont have a computer with me most of the time so i rely on the tablet for most of what i do , yesterday i have updated to android 4.4.2 kitkat , whitout knowing i would loose full access to my 32 Gb SD card...well that made me quite furious as most people...so i decided try rooting it , after backing up all my files i used CF Auto Root ( CF-Auto-Root-lt03lte-lt03ltexx-smp605.zip , well that didnt quite work as i was getting
the boot loopwith the message RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING, after much reading i was able to recover the tablet to boot back , no rooting was done but im pretty sure i triggered knox and voided the warranty ....anyway i still want to try getting full access to my SD card, either by rooting it or any other way ,if there is a valid file explorer app without root i am keen to know, or if anyone can show me the way to root this device I will really appreciate.Device Details:
AP605ZSUCNE3
CP: P605ZSUCNE1
csc605OZSUCNE3
KitKat 4.4.2
With all do respect TWRP 2.7.0.1 does work on 4.4.2
I have it working myself.
Now To gain root on 4.4.2, install Autoroot - Chainfire for the SM P905
Then search the forums for a P605 recovery (Its somewhere here)
Youll get full root with original stock recovery. Then flash TWRP 2.7.0.1 and then youll be fine.
Remember the current TWRP version on the main post isnt the correct version...Further into the thread there is the correct version.
Need any help. as per always im on Facebook and Am happy to teamviewer in

Mate, you were told cf-autoroot DOESN'T work and will screw things up... Why did you flash over something not working right?
You needed to find the stock recovery first, then flash 2.7.0.1 (not 2.7.0.0) to get TWRP installed. You then flash latest supersu using TWRP. This will root your device and give you a custom recovery..
The only thing is TWRP can't make a backup to the External sd card if you have it formatted exFAT...
Best advice, flash stock rom (kitkat only) again using PC ODIN, try again...

0. If you screwed something up, flashed a wrong recovery, flash the stock rom again. If you are stuck in a boot loop, there is plenty of thread about how to boot into odin mode from there.
1. Download attached TWRP 2.7.0.1, it works with P605. I have it myself.
2. Start the tablet, download SuperSU-v1.99r4.zip, place on SD Card.
3. Reboot into Odin mode, (VolDown+Home), flash TWRP. If your recovery is being restored, don't tick Auto Reboot in Odin and turn off manually after flashing, then boot into TWRP.
4. Boot into TWRP, reset to factory settings. You will be asked if you want Root at some point. I think it's when you reboot, I don't remember.
5. When booted into Android, see if SuperSU downloader app is there. If no - boot TWRP and look around, because you missed something.
If yes, reboot into TWRP again and flash UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99r4.zip.
Congrats, you are now rooted.

Attached version works with 4.4.2 Nordic.
After you flashed wrong recovery and have "zebra screen", Make sure you flashed stock firmware after that. Don't try flashing anything else before you flash stock.

I understand you. Are you sure you're not missing anything? It might help to flash stock NEE again. In my case I ticked "Update boot loader", do you mind trying that?
Remember, TWRP is VolUp+Home. It should display colored text in the right upper corner on 2014 logo when booting, if it's entering recovery mode.
Hi,
Solved it is Ok....

Flash fails with:
Installation aborted (bad), can't open <path to zip file><name of zip>
This happens after a factory reset, wipe data, cache.
I have a Samsung S3 that I have rooted, and then flashed many times. Before that I had an HTC EVO. I am not new to the process, but apparently I am missing something here.
Got any suggestions?
Which Odin Version you are used to install The Recovery? Try an other Version.
Is your Rom on The micro Sdcard ? If you use Philz so is The max capacity 32 GB, if you use TWRP so is max 64 GB supported.

How do you rooted your Tab?
With Stockrecovery you can not flash a Rom or Recovery.
Flash Philz or TWRP With Odin, reboot to The New flashen Recovery , than you can install a Rom.

Sounds like the rom download is bad. Check the md5 of the rom before trying to install.
Kind of success. I downloaded the same version of PhilZ, for Odin, on my laptop.
I put the tablet in download mode and flashed the recovery with Odin.
I downloaded the ROM again (http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...m-stockrom-kitkat-version-16-08-2014-t2849742). This is one I had tried before. This time to my laptop and copied it to the tablet. The other times, I had downloaded the ROM directly onto the tablet.
While it was in the process of flashing, there were some video anomolies.
I rebooted the tablet into recovery and flashed the ROM. It hung on SAMSUNG for a very long time after the flash and reboot. I powered it off and rebooted. It booted completely this time, but not without some issues. The first thing was when the message pops up that Android is optimizing apps. That bar was all screwy looking, snowy. (see attached image)
Once I got to the lock screen and entered the pin, the screen "fractured", pieces shifted around, and the tablet locked up. I wish I had taken a picture of it. Never seen anything like it.
I had not done a data wipe yet. I did a data wipe, rebooted, entered the pin, tablet locked up again.
I then was going to restore the backup I made before the flashing. It wouldn't restore because of an MD5 mismatch. I had restored this backup previously with no problem.
I restored an older backup and then spent a couple of hours getting everything back to the level of the now broken backup.
Flash nolekat and all went fine.
I've had problems as well. I normally flash via a recovery. At times I'll have an md5 mismatch or it just doesn't work; I've even backed up a working ROM only to find out I can't restore the same backup. Seems like a hit or miss with me
I tried flashing NoleKat and it failed on me too.

bierma32 said:
At one of your post you write after flashing you must put in the Pin?
So you have make not a clean install or factory reset, you done a wipe cache and wipe dalvik.
You must do a clean install if you come from different Roms or Version.

So the first thing I noticed is, you listed the bold above. That means the rom is flashed? Thats my rom. Its stock and you even show the correct kernel. (although I would update to a newer one). Next thing is, after you download use an MD5 checker and compare to the rom thread or AFH next time. This will indicate if there are issues with the download or the file itself after moving it. Report back for us so we can proceed to help you further
Have you tried full unroot through SuperSU app and reflash latest SuperSU via recovery ?
OK. So I completely bricked the phone trying to get this to work.
I was able to download the ORIGINAL stock unrooted rom.
I rooted it again after getting it back up. I tried to flash a couple of ROMS, but TWRP just continues to reset back to TWRP menu when I flash. So I changed to Philz. Aborts each time
It sounds to me like the best plan at this point would be to Odin back to stock and start over. Something went wrong somewhere!
Yeah. If you can get into download mode then you didn't brick. Download the stock tar and try again.
I already restored it back to stock. I've done this 3x now. I'm stock again now, but each time I use the toolkit and reboot, when I try to flash ANY rom, it says failed or corrupt.
I've tried philz and TWRP. Both are giving the same results
I've rooted several phones and no issue. I was able to install one earlier before I bricked the first time, but the radio/data kept having issues even after I did the fix so I tried another rom, but to no avail.

you do know we could always skip the step thats probably not playing nice for you, the toolkit.
Odin Stock NK2 tar
Odin TWRP
Boot into TWRP
Flash Custom rom (all come prerooted nowadays)
Profit.
alternative to that is:
Odin Stock NK2 tar
Odin CF-autoroot
Odin Recovery Of choice
enjoy stock rooted or Reboot to recovery and flash custom recovery of choice.
Well, I just tried that also with the newest TWRP 2.8.4.0 and it didn't take through ODIN. The guy fell over when I went to see it as the the phone tried to do the update.
I used ODIN to download Philz and it took.
I then tried to flash Liquid Smooth and it aborted saying it can't open /storage/sdcard1/LS-LP-v4.0-2015-01-16- liquid_trltespr.zip (bad)
The I tried to /storage/sdcard1/cm-12-20150116-UNOFFICIAL-trltespr.zip (bad) and it aborted again

Now that none of these options worked (for some strange reason), I went back to the toolkit and re-rooted the phone and got rid of knox, added busybox, etc... Now I AM rooted again, but none of the roms will install.
I have a rooted phone that can't flash.
I tried all of the roms that I downloaded to my sd card, but none seem to work.
Even though I have a new 128 gb sandisc ultra, is it possible that I have a bad card??
I'm just baffled. I've been rooting phones for years, but this one is strange.
Is there a way to use odin to flash a rom?? I know it would have to be a tar file
Definitely yes... Put the rom on the internal memory and you will be good to go!

Unless your card is bad (or your drivers on your pc) the problems you are experiencing are still unfortunately most likely internet connection or user related errors. You don't detail your steps carefully. This is important in this situation.
Try downloading a ROM to your computer and transfer it to the internal storage. Also, how are you using philz recovery, I thought only twrp worked for our phone. Download the right recovery here, flash with Odin in PDA slot from download mode. http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/266
UPDATE!!!!!
Thanks EVERYBODY... I used my old 4GB SanDisk mini card and it is still good.
I downloaded the rom to the card and it took immediately.
The 128GB card that I bought is junk.
It is rooted and I have an AWESOME rom now.
Thanks agian EVERYONE for all of your help
Good evening everyone!
I've recently wanted to update my Hercules from 4.1 (I know it's reeealy outdated) to version 6.0 Marshmallow.
So I did a few steps and now I cant' seem to go any further, and I need your help.
So far, I've done the following:
-Installed TWRP 2.8.7.0
-Used Odin to flash the TWRP mentioned above
Now, I know there are a few problems regarding this version of the TWRP on the Hercules, so I tried fixing it by using Odin again and flashing the updated 2.8.7.1 and even the 3.0 version that I found on some threads, but with no sucess.
I haven't even had the chance to install Marshmallow on my phone in the first chance, because I couldn't find any .ZIP folders on the TWRP instalation menu.
I really appreciate your help guys, I'm a noob at this and I'm just starting to figure what is what, I just need my phone updated. It's running so far atleast, so it's not hard bricked I guess.
Did you follow the instructions to flash TWRP using Odin?

I'm pretty sure I did everything I was intended to do. I installed Samsung Kies so I could install the drivers on my mobile, and then TWRP through Odin properly with the blue light showing up. After flashing it, it turned green and said PASS or PASSED. So I think I did everything right on that end, I can even access TWRP with no real problems.
I even tried to do a ROOT on my system, but again, I couldn't use ZIP or any other files on the TWRP installation option because they simply do not appear

Watching this thread as I have the same problem.
I can boot to TWRP 2.8.7, but if I try to install, there's no file to install from.
I can go back to TWRP 2.6.0, and then mount the card and see the ROM, but every ROM I try fails. Something about non-virtual partitions if I try 4.4 or better, and error executing updater binary if i try 4.1

I don't know of any problems with any of the recoveries. However there are different recoveries for different roms which need to be used in a specific order and in a specific way, the first time that you virtually repartition your phone.
Have you gone through the process of applying the "virtual partition" and installing the modified "virtual partition" recovery? This is required for most of the MM roms on this phone (Hercules). The process is very well documented here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2-tmobile/help/guidance-sgh-t989-updating-issue-t3414641 in the #2nd post.

Hi, thanks for replying
No, I dont' take I have taken that step actually. I'm pretty new to this and I tried following every step correctly, but I know that I failed or skipped something at some extent and I've been trying to figure out what exactly, so I can fix it. I guess I need to Virtual Partition my phone then, could you post me the link do to so? Because I think you posted one that would take back to this post

I shut it down in TWRP then hold volume down and power to go into download mode.
My phone has gone backwards now though - it doesn't matter what I load in Odin now, it won't boot up. The SAMSUNG screen is on, with a progress bar, but it never gets to the end. It stops right near the end and it sits there until I reboot it again.
