Hi. Can I ask if there's a possibility on downgrading the Bootloader of SM 9N20I? Thank you for your help.

I haven't find the way to downgrade the stock bootloader, but if you want to flash older stock rom, you can un-Tar the stock .tar.md5 file using 7-zip or anything equivalent, delete the .bin files in it, Tar it again (keep the format .tar), then flash it with odin

Will try later. Thank you. My bootloader is RH3 I suspect it is the reason why older lineage roms doesn't successfully flash.

i am looking for completely stock .tar files to flash through odin
i bricked my tablets and i need to revert to stock. I have the stock recovery file but i can't find a stock rom or a .pit file
You can find it here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1582943
and make sure you got the correct stock rom for your tab version.
Installation guide is there too.
also when using odin, make sure KIES is not running on tray
(for windows: [ctrl + alt + del] > Processes tab > terminate KiesTrayAgent.exe)
it doesn't have the US model listed
It doesn't really matter,As long as it has english language.
Because you're only going to use it to get the recovery back working to flash another rom.
Just grab the latest firmware for the 8.9 wifi only model, P7310XWKI2
one last question? any idea where i can get the .pit file?
There isn't a need in using .pit file.
and i don't know where to get it.
The *.tar.md5 file you found after unzipping it will just do.
load is to the PDA in odin3.

There is a thread for that. Redownload your desired firmware.
hello there xda users
i have recently bricked my phone and managed to reflash the firmware, but, i had to add the bootloader file with the split firmware package.
what i want to do is install the latest XXLD3 firmware on top of the current s5830ixxkk5/gingerbread.xxlk1 firmware package but im worried because i am thinking that the bootloader file has to be the same as the firmware if you know what i mean. can i install the xxld3 on the xxkk5 bootloader without bricking my phone again? any help would be appreciated. thanks

I think you can try by flashing complete (3 files package) of XXLD3 via odin & then flash only the bootloader file of XXKK5 via odin. I have not tried it before and i'm not sure but i think it should work. In worst case you can always revert to XXKK5 via odin, as long as you can access the download/odin mode :good:
I am sure they are on here somewhere. I have been searching for 20 minutes now. I am looking for the newest stock kernel for my htc one.
3.4.10-gcfc57d3 is the one I am looking for. Can anyone point me in the right direction, all I can find is all the modded kernels. Thanks.
The firmware contains the boot.img, find the right firmware and extract it from the zip.
A stock backup will also contain it.

Thanks, can I just flash this boot.img with twrp or should I zip it and flash? I found the file in the root of the rom, just wondering the proper way to flash it. Thanks.

fastboot flash boot boot.img
Are you sure you just need the boot.img?
I flashed bulletproof kernel and want to put it back to stock kernal. Will that take care of it for me?

Yes. Just pull it from the rom.zip you flashed and use fastboot to flash it.

Hey there, I ran into a similar problem and my problem was the reactivation lock under settings, security, I had it turned on. I'm not sure about your case but if you do have it on.....turn it off. Good luck.

want to downgrade but cant find a zip of the kitkat bootloader or nk4 kernal
You can't flash the bootloader through recovery, at least not the last time I checked. The bootloader has to be flased through odin but Odin doesn't flash bootloaders, modems, etc.. We're you possibly referring to the boot.img? If so, that's a kernel.

You can grab a kernal from nearly any KitKat firmware. Download a stock rom to get a stock kernal or a custom rom for a custom kernal. Extract the rom using winrar,winzip, 7zip, or your favorite unzipping utility and you should find a "boot.img" in the root of the extracted folder. Flash the boot.img in Odin in the third slot down (i think it is labelled "PDA"). You can't use the second slot (kernal) because that slot will only allow "md5" files and the boot.img has no md5 in it. I hope this helps because I couldn't find anything KitKat related on my PC, sorry. Good luck and let us know if you have any more questions or problems, okay?
EDIT: I didn't realize when I posted this but Trex888 uploaded it for you in the post before this one (third link) has your boot.img in the download. Grab that one
