How can I flash this with Heimdall?

Just to let you know.......downloaded twice from this server on my lappy and both files came up corrupted. Can't even open with 7-Zip.
Also, I keep getting a pop-up saying that the download has been interrupted.

Tried a third time and got the same "download has been interrupted" pop-up. After resuming and finishing the download, I looked at the file size and it was 246mb.

Does this work with the MDL baseband as well? I'm seeing MDC in the filename so I want to make sure

So if you're already on MDL modem, have stock rooted ROM, stock kernel, triangle away back to zero and official, using Mobile Odin with this "should" put everything back to factory including putting stock recovery back on? I haven't had the need or time to pull the trigger to test it yet. I'm glad there's finally a stock tar of this. I guess it's just a matter of time before one clicks are made with this and rooted tars. I know this phone is slightly different with flashing than the e4gt. My mind is still stuck on the way things were done with that phone.

I would say that it will. I think even if you have the MDC modem it should upgrade to the MDL version. I'm going to try in a few minutes...almost downloaded. I am wondering if triangle away is even necessary. I'm showing "custom" on my phone so we'll see what happens.
I've already posted on sxtp about getting a one-click. They make things so easy. But at least with this file I can skip the (1) one-click MDC..... (2) wait for OTA upgrade to MDL.
This definitely is different from my E4GT.
BTW , what is that SS_DL.dll file in the zip?

---------------------------------------
Edit: OK, I just ODIN'd the file. Custom binary now shows Samsung Official and system status is Official. I forgot to check the kernel, but I'm pretty sure it's stock. Also it did flash modem.bin. ODINing this file left all my apps intact. I was expecting it to wipe my internalSD, but apparently it didn't.
Since I wanted to start from a clean slate, I'm now flashing the one-click MDC stock restore and I'll take the OTA and go from there. I'll just have to wait for a one-click rooted restore.

I wonder if the root option in mobile Odin works with stock MDL.

Help me correct this --

I attempted to root my s4 via motochopper (before finding out that this method does not work) - then I Odin'd the CF-Auto-Root-jfltespr-jfltespr-sphl720.zip and rebooted. (per qbking77 instructions which were ALSO out of date) It installed the SU apk (red pirate android) and once rebooted, SU did not work and root checker told me I was not rooted. At this point I am wanting to remove SU (since it's not working, binaries will not update) and return to "normal". I should Odin the file in this thread for the VPUAMDL, correct?
I follow instructions well, have read a thousand threads about this today (before diving in) and have rooted a dozen phones before this (never an s4) - I have never had a problem, until this happened today. I'm a little irritated because I was relying on the information as CURRENT (because info on rooting and installing custom recovery for the s4 seems to be SPARSE) -
Any help is appreciated,
Thx, Chictek

What country/service provider?

Could work, depending on how backups are stored. I can just tell that tarp looks for backups in a folder with your device-id.

What you need is system and boot, and a flashable zip with original recovery.

No i dont. Not as cwm flashable zip.
Backup from another phone probably works as long as the backup folder is named right so that recovery finds it.
Make a backup and folders will be created, use external storage.
Whole restore process would be:
Make sure binary count is zero with triangle away.
Boot download mode to make sure as well.
Copy backups of system and boot to backup folder.
Boot to recovery, factory reset, restore backups from other phone, factory reset again.
Boot system to see that all is OK.
Unroot from SuperSU settings if needed.
Back to recovery to flash flashable zip of stock recovery.
I guess you'll have to make one more factory reset from stock recovery to get everything official status.
I hope I didn't miss anything
(I can make that zip for you if you'll need it. Downloading firmware right now, just in case)

If i flash recovery again, will i lost my data/OS or something? I installed Lollipop on my Xperia S about a week ago and i can't get to recovery mode to install .zip files, which is strange. I dont want to install etc. everything again so please, let me know how to deal with this. Also i turned off the "ambient thing", but its still pretty sensitive - it keeps unlocking itself when I put in on my bike or just when im trying to clean it which never happened to me before.

Pleaseeeeeeeeee! I really need it.

What zip file to download ?

I cannot root my Micromax xpress 2 e313 running on 5.1,this method fails in my mobile,please suggest any other method

I cant root my Intex Aque Power HD.. it has Lolipop 5.1 ..
I try to root with iroot apps, USB debug with my Lapy..

Hahahaha! Yeah right...let me see you install CWM or TWRP without a PC.

You cannot lose your data or OS by flashing a recovery. However if you do it incorrectly or use the wrong process to flash the recovery, you can brick your phone. And if you bricked it, you may have to flash a new stock ROM to unbrick. That may cause you to lose your data.
So as always, BACK UP YOUR OS AND YOUR DATA before you mess with your phone! I can't tell you how many people I read about who fail to backup their phone and then they mess with it not really knowing what they are doing and end up losing everything because they've bricked their phone and have NO BACKUP!
Don't risk your data. Back it up NOW. Then you can mess with your phone freely and without worry.

Where's the. Zip file download link?

An app that tends to work on almost all lollipop based devices is the KINGROOT app........
Just google it and download it....
Your phone may reboot during the root process but thanks to lollipop's ram feature your unclosed apps stay unclosed nd in the memory even after rebooting......
so carry on with the process after reboot(if it occurs)
I've rooted many stubborn devices with it

[Q] How can I update to Lollipop 5.1 if my device is already rooted?

Hello
Excuse me but I'm a newbie to all of this. I have found tons of posts here to help me with whatever I need but now I can't seem to find a way to update to 5.1
I tried the OTA but it didn't work since my device is already rooted although I am still running 5.0.1.
I tried sideloading it but it didn't work and I read a few posts that it won't work anymore since I rooted already.
So what's left to do? Flash image? If so, can someone point me in the right direction? Didn't any new posts regarding 5.1 image flashing and I really don't wanna risk doing anything stupid. Also, I read that there's a way through which I can bypass losing all my data?
Thanks in advance!

you can just flash a 5.1 rooted rom, just like before 5.1. thats the easiest way around. you can flash the factory img as well, then reroot.

Download the Google factory image here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
Extract the system.img and boot.img then fastboot flash them. Read general > all in one guide > question 28 for fastboot.
Once flashed, boot straight into twrp recovery and flash SuperSU. Zip to root.
Edit.. Or if you want, you can download a pre-rooted ROM.zip and just flash that from twrp recovery

no advice, flash whatever you like. but ill warn you ROM Manager is an ancient app that WILL cause you issues. what you should do iz boot into twrp recovery, flash whatever, then reboot. thats how you flash. remember my words, rom manager WILL cause you iasues.

Just flashing a rooted rom will not install the newest bootloader and modem/radio. So I wouldn't recommend that....
But either way works if all you want to do is get on 5.1 without updating the bootloader and modem/radio

Bought the app too, in that time we needed it as CM could only be downloaded through Rom Manager. Flashed it with CWM afterwards because RM didn`t work and messed up CWM recovery so i had to reflash it ugh.....

I'm never updating my bootloader. At least not until I have to. The 5.1 bootloader is not a friend of anyone racking up their frequent flasher miles.

No problem bro. Glad to help.

I can confirm Magisk v12 works flawlessly

I am currently running this rom and am planning on leaving metropcs since it seemed someone may have ruined their network. I paid for the 60 dollar a month plan and I cant even get close to a single megabit download speed. Is there any way someone could post or attatch a twrp backup of the modem? I tried to flash the stock modem from the stock firmware but I dont have a computer right now and accidentally erased my modem.

Install flashfire, you can do all that with the stock firmware package. No PC required. It's a godsend

I tried that but it failed miserably. I also tried to dd if=modem.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14 (modem.bin from the csc file) in android and the twrp terminal. No luck! I remember a twrp backup of a working modem took care of the problem but I accidentally deleted it and dont have the proper technology to run testdisk or foremost on the internal memory to try and restore the radio.emmc.win.

Did you download the latest stock firmware, load it in flashfire in the ota section, then select the modem, leaving everything else unchecked?
I just uploaded a nandroid of my modem in the next Post. This ought to sorry things out for you

Here's a TWRP backup of my modem. Unzip to the root of your sd card.

nope. I also tried reflashing the stock firmware. Fails at boot loader. m2kefs /dev/block/mmcblk0p14. Now all I got is a tablet. Won't function at all with the modem in place.

Let me create a nand for you and upload it to mega. You still have access to TWRP?

I was finally able to resolve my situation. Thinking back.. I thought maybe I just accidentally turned my radio off but I actually hard bricked my phone because I had to format the modem partition for the phone to even function properly over WiFi. Perhaps if anyone else has that problem the new firmware posted on mega.nz will have the proper modem driver for hw rev 05. If not then this phone could have a factory limitation to stop people from developing their own open source Android Rom for the device. A defect I would call it in this case. Although I haven't been able to verify it because I have no reason to corrupt my modem and then try flashing the new firmware.

Fantastic bro. Such a rewarding feeling when you figure stuff out. So my firmware helped, or was it another package you found?

I have a J700T1 MetroPCS device. I have been pulling my hair out and studying day and night to run XModGames on my phone. (XMG "XModGames is a modding app for rooted phones to alter games) I have done this before on other phones. I have tried flashing a permissive kernel, and once it was permissive XMG would still give an error. I have installed BusyBox, deleted app data, changed XMG to system app through LuckyPatcher... Restarted and flash my phone several times! Just trying to figure this out... Can anyone give some ideas? I'm testing this ROM Deodex & Deknox but it stayed in T-Mobile boot screen for 30 minutes. I'm about to flash stock again.
