Flashing the XAC NF1 firmware and it hangs on zimage and then i have to odin back to the original...
My GG is XAR (US)
Think it is just a bad download? OR am I not waiting long enough (5 minutes on zimage)?
EDIT:
Redownloaded and get the same thing in odin - hangs on zimage Do I have to go from NA6 to NE9 then to NF1?
I'm downloading NE9 XAC now... Why don't we have better mirrors... (FASTER)?
EDIT 2:
NE9 Worked fine. Maybe I'll try NF1 now, although I haven't read anything as far as a changelog between the two.
Same happened with me. I stayed on ne9 and rooted so I could remove camera sounds

Ne9 is a bigger size file and I believe does the conversion from Android to tizen. After installing ne9 you should be able to update to nf1.
SOLVED
Old post but I just went through the same ordeal to be able to install the TizenMod 3 ROM which requires NF1 firmware first.
1. Flash any region NE9, I used V700XXUCNE9 with Odin 3.10
2. Flash any region NF1, I used V700XXUCNF1 with Odin 3.10
Can someone please direct me to a mirror link so i can pull down the firmware and unbick my watch?

I do not have any mirrors or download sites other than directly from www.sammobile.com - I get them all from there
hopefully someone else will respond with mirrors for you
Good luck,

Hey guys, I know you've probably all seen these kinds of posts, but I'm going to be honest: I've spent about 5 hours looking for good instructions on how to flash a rom like TizenMod 3.0 onto my galaxy Gear, but I can't find anything good...I know the instructions on the page say how to do it, but then it says, "IMPORTANT: Update your gear to the NF1 FW before flash!"....How do I upgrade to NF1? Any help would be appreciated, thank you!!

If you're gear is on android you need to do all of this.
Download both firmware files, and odin files to PC.
NE9 Tizen firmware
http://www.mediafire.com/?c6qzuvuksuxcega
NF1 Tizen firmware
http://www.mediafire.com/?j66d0tzk5b1bwxt
Download*Odin v3.09
https://mega.co.nz/#!UdRRyCAT!H4FyVxYynNWvXqRNmnpMGQRCP-dG3uykgP2pT4rh8Ek
Extract Odin zip-file
Open Odin v3.09
Put watch into download mode. (Hold power button until you see it say rebooting, then tap 5 times.)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign
Add the NE9 firmware file to AP / PDA
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait a few minutes
Repeat odin process again with the NF1 firmware.
You're now on the official NF1 tizen release and can proceed with the tizen mod.
Excellent post. I was in same position as OP and was searching aimlessly through vague tutorials and god awful downloads. Thanks for this and the ad free mediafire links as well. Running Tizenmod right now!
one of the best way.

Can someone point me to the right thread to return to stock with stock recovery?
I have NULL_23 right now and would like to try out a tizen based OS
im in the same boat, cannot get to a download mode to reflash stock with Odin after having null 23 and twrp on my gear
i downloaded the stock verwion then flashed it with odin then downloaded keis 3 and it updated to tizen from stock for me. glad i did as tizen is way better than null imo as its a watch so you dont need anything to fancy null is great btw but i prefer tizen 4 sure

What version stock did you download. I tried the UK and it almost bricked my device. I am trying Cellular South next. I read that it's a US company because I can't find US or Canada on any sites. Only tons of other countries.

Hi Mate,
I did get stuck on the boot screen but this is what i did.
1. Download this UK version (BTU), (I have uploaded the one I used and added it to dropbox for you as it was a real pain to get, I apologize ADMIN if this is not allowed but I just want to help) https://www.dropbox.com/s/lejcpo7mp3ayxvp/BTU-V700XXUAMK7-20131115153259 stock rom.zip?dl=0
then unrar it to get the MD5 file
2. I used odin 3.09 the leave ticked auto reboot and f. reset time. add the MD5 file to AP. then flash..
3. When my watch rebooted it got stuck on the samsung boot screen so I held down the power button and then when it said rebooting I pressed the button 5 times to assess recovery.
4. select recovery, the phone will then recovery itself into the stock firmware.
5. open keis 3 and follow instructions there and keis will update the watch to tizen automatically.
I hope this helps you, if i can help in anyway just shout , im by no means an expert tho lol.
Matt.
WORKED!
Worked. Thank you.
I tried to update using Kies and it just hangs after downloading the firmware update.
Then I'm having trouble downloading the ROM from Rapid Gator. which seems to be where everyone has it uploaded to. So, does anyone have a download from somewhere else? I'm looking for the XAR or US version. pl0x & thanx

Not sure what exactly you are looking for, but heres my gear folder, browse around. Also, grab odin while you are there, allows you to flash non official and tar.md5 extensions. Kies is good for official releases or country based, otherwise odin. Just run as admin. Flash ne9 then nf1 as nf1 isnt the full build, have to go ne9 to nf1. If you are going to flash skins mod its the same order, ne9, nf1, skins.
If anyone has a link to unmodified N910TUVU1COD6 stock firmware, I would *greatly* appreciate it. I found mirrors for every other stock firmware except the one I need (that is what always happens, right?). Downloading from SamMobile.com will literally take hours. TIA
Sammobile. Just start it before you got bed.
