Please help! Completely wiped phone without backup. - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a 910t and on accident I wiped everything. I can still boot twrp. I just don't have any backup. When I try to reboot from twrp it tells me I have no OS installed. What do I do from here?

No problem its normal.
Just download any rom in pc and transfer to microsd card or otg flash drive then flash rom from twrp.
Or just reboot to download mode from twrp and flash stock firmware in odin.

Constant Boot into TWRP

I was on stock ROM and had my bootloader unlocked
I flashed the latest TWRP on my XSP
Then on booting into recovery I wiped data/cache/dalvik cache and then installed AICP with the GApps
after installing when i chose reboot it asked me whether to install superuser I clicked no and rebooted
And now even on normal booting it goes into TWRP
even if I try to connect to my laptop in fastboot mode it is booting up into TWRP
basically no matter what button i press, It is booting up into TWRP
I have installed the latest TWRP available
I even tried the hard seret but again it goes into TWRP

Flash tangerine and see if the problem is solved.
If not,
Do a full wipe again, flash ROM, then tangerine, then GApps.

Hello. This problem is really weird. May I know where did you learned to flash the TWRP recovery?
Also what is the current state of your bootloader?
In the meantime, you can try out my Stock Components as Flashable ZIPs to flash. Read the OP carefully and only choose FOTAkernel component.
Flash it through your TWRP. Shut down the phone (Main Menu > Reboot > Power off) and try to fastboot.

Yeah.. Flashed stock Rom again..
But before it i tried installing some other Rom's.. other than AICP..
it was successful for resurrection remix and stryflex..
but again when i used to flash TWRP it again used to start booting into recovery..
Might be some problem with the recovery.. Didn't try any other recovery though..

I'm not sure which TWRP you installed,
but this is an updated one and it works perfectly. It won't get deleted even if you change ROMs.
Flash the fotakernel of your device from the link provided by TechnoSparks in post#3.
Then flash TWRP.

Turn it off, take the sd card out and put a flashable rom on it. If your bootloader is locked then it must be a stock rom.
Put the card back in the phone, start recovery, go to install, then install from sd card, flash rom.

The rom would have replaced the recovery partition. Now you need to flash recovery again and possibly root, depending on which rom you used. It would be better to use Nuts recovery, to flash via ADB rather than use flashtool. Flashtool is so powerful, it's really easy to brick your phone, or to wipe out your TA partition and destroy the camera. It should be used as little as possible.
There is a great guide here.

Flash TWRP via fastboot then boot into recovery not to system.
There it asks whether to allow modifications, confirm by swiping the bar. This will prevent stock ROM to replace the recovery.
If its the first time then you have to wipe internal storage to decrypt it for further use.

Have you tried lazyflasher?. Boot into twrp (i suggest twrp 3.0.2) reset data and dalwik cache and then install lazyflasher.

[URGENT] Stuck in Bootloop. Help.!!!

I was on MUI9 Nougat 7.1.2. Unlocked my bootloader properly. Wanted to try out Google Camera. So I searched the forum, found TWRP 3.0.3 Installer. Installed the TWRP successfully. Then I thought of installing the new TWRP, so flashed TWRP 3.2.1 from the previous TWRP. When I booted back to Recovery, saw the Encryption Error. I never set any password. Got tensed. Searched the forums again for solution. Found that I have to format the data. So formatted the data, flashed LazyFlasher. Did not know what else to do, tried booting and got stuck in Bootloop. I only have Internal Storage. And have one OTG Pendrive in case it comes handy. Downloaded Dot OS 7.1.2 and tried to install it from the OTG by booting back to TWRP, failed, it said Corrupt ZIP, but the zip file was ok. So started the process again, rebooted back to TWRP, wiped everything and this time tried to flash an old MIUI9 Recovery ROM through it, it still gave the same error, Corrupt ZIP. So basically what I have left is that I can boot into TWRP and also Fastboot is working well. But dont know how to get past this Bootloop. Someone please help. Really urgent. So tensed. :crying:

Thanks bro. Never mind. Somehow managed to flash DotOS Nougat version through TWRP 3.0.3. Now bro please tell me one thing. I wont stay at DotOS, I dont like it, just flashed it to get through the bootloop. So now I have downloaded MIUI9 8.3.22 Developer Recovery ROM. Still having TWRP 3.0.3, BL Unlocked, ADB working, Fastboot working, USB Debugging everything taken care off. Just tell me steps to flash the Developer ROM now so that I dont go into bootloop again. Please. Thanks in advance.
ummm kinda easy actually, download the miflash software, open it, it should have the select, refresh, and flash menu. click select, and navigate to your rom file (u need to download the fastboot rom version! not the recovery version, should be easy to find in google. the format should be .tgz change it to rar, extract it, it will shows another rar extract it again, it should be folder now) that folder is your rom file. now enter fastboot mode, plug ur phone, and click refresh. it will shows some number and alphabet. if the number and alphabet appears, click flash! and wait! and ur phone will boot itself
sorry for **** english
1. Go to twrp...
2. Wipe (cache, data, dalvik/cache, system)
3. flash miui 9 dev 8.3.22
4. flash lazyflasher...
Reboot..
It will take more then 5 min to start (first boot usually take that much time)
Your phone boot normally....
If you are facing TWRP Recovery Issue then update TWRP

Question How do i get Stock recovery to not replace TWRP when rebooting???

Tried a bunch of things to make the TWRP installation persistent, but it just goes back to MIUI recovery when i reboot from the system.
I'm using TWRP 3.5.2 by Nebrassy.
USB debugging turned on
Correct drivers installed
fastboot devices work Using minimal ADB and fastboot
I have the file renamed as TWRP.img.
Steps i followed:
fastboot boot "TWRP.img" - Correctly boots into TWRP
install the TWRP image to the recovery partition - Happens with no errors
Reboot to system - No errors there as well
Reboot to recovery - Goes back to MIUI recovery.
Can someone please tell me what i should do?
PS: Tried with TWRP 3.6.0 as well just now. Same issue.

Try again to flash TWRP dirty and if it's started don't boot with software. You have to boot TWRP again by pressing volume + and power button until you'll get vibration , afterwards you'll be in TWRP again, clear dalvik and cache and restart system via TWRP menu

Sorry mate that didn't work. Still going back to stock recovery...
Since i didn't find a solution to make the installation presistant, i went ahead and flashed Elixir with the temporarily booted TWRP. Then wiped cache and dalvik, flashed the TWRP image, formatted data and then rebooted. Now it works.
Edit: This method did something to my recovery. I can boot to system and recovery fine but TWRP isn't able to mount the data partition. So i'm not able to flash anything or root the device anymore.
I tried formatting data, no luck.
Then tried repairing the data partition. No luck.
Changed the file system to EX2 and then EX4... Nothing.
Anyone know a solution for this?

Would that re-lock the bootloader? And if so do i have to wait 7 more days for it to be unlocked?
I used the Disable-Dm-Verity-Zip directly in TWRP after installation. Worked without a problem.

Can you share the zip you flashed?
Also, any idea how i could get this fixed:

1. With MiFlash there is an option at the bottom of the screen to lock bootloader. Just make sure it is NOT checked, and you will be safe to use MiFlash without relocking bootloader.
2. When installing TWRP for first time, it is essential that your first reboot is straight back to TWRP - then it becomes persistent, and future reboots to recovery will be to TWRP. If you do not do the first reboot back to TWRP, the stock MIUI ROM recovery reinstalls itself.

The first ever twrp install i did, i rebooted to system by mistake but i reflashed twrp and made sure to reboot to recovery.... That was the second try. I think i may have tried at least two dozen times since that but it just kept booting back to stock recovery...
I think I'll run with this until the end of Jan and then redo everything from scratch...
