You need to ODIN flash the stock original official odin flash N910T
firmware & then odin flash cf-autoroot and the twrp recovery.
Once that's done you can re-flash the zip file rom in twrp recovery.
Make sure to do a full wipe in twrp before you re-flash the zip file rom and be
sure to include a full wipe including:
"System, Data, Cache Dalvik Cache and last but not least do a factory reset.
Good luck,
Have a great day!

Try to flash with twrp. You can load it as a zip file through CWM or install Goo Manager (can be downloaded in the Play marketplace).

Hi, I'm having the same issue. I've flashed a couple different ROMs, all flash the samsung screen then reboot. I tried CWM first, now I am using TWRP.
Suggestions? I think I need to flash a boot.img but I couldn't find a good guide on how to do this.

I don't think you need anything beyond the zipped rom files if you ALREADY have TWRP installed. What I do is go to recovery. I wipe Dalvik cache, wipe cache and then factory rest. After that I install the zip. I've found that when ever I've been stuck in the boot loop, it's because I didn't do a proper wipe.

Thank you! This did the trick. Apparently in my many attempts I didn't do the right combo.
currently on alliancerom, just wonder if it possible to directly flash ICS back via ODIN or i MUST go back to GB first?
you can flash directly to ICS, you may get some FCs after the flash because of old custom ROM files, So the best thing to do would be to:
Reboot into TWRP recovery (included with Alliance ROM)
wipe cache / dalvik cache / factory reset
reboot download mode
flash ICS via ODIN or Mobile ODIN.

i wonder is it safe to flash philz kernel and reboot recovery into cwm and flash other rom? because as far as i know flashing cwm type of zip will cause big issue in twrp
sure you can, just download it and install like you would a ROM, It might not work with Alliance ROM, so be sure to reboot recovery and change ROM from there. :good:

You can flash Stock ICS and philz kernel at the same time with Mobile Odin. Then, reboot in recovery and do the wipes....that is how I did it and worked fine for me.
Hello, well this is a very rookie question, but i usually do the update via recovery (twpr) but in the last days doing this is giving me some troubles with the app, so... today im flashing via odin; the question is: Is there any real difference?
For odin update you must have access to PC with correct USB drivers installed
In odin you flash whole img file. There is no possibility (almost ) to modify it before flashing
Flashing via recovery is easier, without PC. Everything can be done on a phone.
You can do nandroid backup from recovery before flash and restore him if something goes wrong.
Flashable zip recovery file can be edited before flash

You should always do a cache and dalvik wipe after an update
Hello, I have an s3 mini I8190N model, with CM 11.0 kitkat 4.4.4(cm11.0_golden.nova.20150108) installed on it since nearly its release, the phone worked very fine, till today I entered the ROM manager app and pushed the "Boot to Recovery" button, so now it doesn't boot neither to the system nor to the recovery. I remember having CWM on it.
What I get now is only the "Samsung S3 mini..." splash screen, nothing else.
I have these files ready on my computer:
Recovery-CWM-I8190-Official-TOUCH-6.0.2.7.ODIN.zip
cm11.0_golden.nova.20150108.zip
What should I do now ??
You probably soft bricked your phone, I suggest you to check if you still can go into download mode and flash with Odin a wipe file and then a stock rom, once it is working again flash twrp recovery instead of cwm with Odin and try not to use rom manager, I've heard it causes the brick you have.

Not if you flash the wipe file, you can try flashing the stock rom without the wipe but It's recommended to do a clean install. Another option is to flash a file called PARAM to see if it solves the bootloop. But the way I fixed a softbrick in my phone was flashing param, wipe and stock rom in that order with Odin.
Are you able to go into recovery?

I will install TWRP through Odin v3 on the phone, then I'll flash without wiping data, then I'll recover necessary data(especially contacts) and then redo a clean install with wiping all the rubbish files.
I will tell you after I follow these steps on whether it was successful or not.
Thank you very much!

No problem, flash the custom recovery after the stock rom though.

Effectively, I installed the missing recovery software (TWRP), and after that I selected from the boot menu in TWRP the "System" entry, then it booted fine and I didn't lose any of my data. Though I have to make a clean flash next time, by cleaning the dalvik cache... etc.
Thank you for your support!
N910T, I tried to downgrade to 5.1.1 from 6.0.1 EPG2 (so that I can install Rapture v8.2), except in Odin it stops at system.img.ext4 then fails. I tried restoring with my backup through TWRP but now it's giving me this:
..........
Formatting system using make_ext4fs...
Restoring System...
extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR=255
So I got the firmware I was originally on, 6.0.1 EPG2 but it does the same thing, stops and fails at system.img.ext4
Basically I'm stuck with Odin and TWRP and I have no idea what to do, I have a backup phone but it isn't unlocked, I really need to fix this ASAP please help
So I found that when I try to backup through twrp, when I uncheck System, everything backs up fine, but of course there's still no OS, so is there any way to flash a Stock System file??
i found that I need to flash the stock recovry back (that gets rid of TWRP), before I can flash back stock OS.
Wipe System, Data, Cache, Dalvik-Cache in TWRP. Reboot to download mode and flash stock image using ODIN.
