Dont exactly know, what it does, but as far as I get it, it roots the device and installs CWM touch.
Credits go to poster, if it is successful.

Hey, thanks for posting here. Here is v20b : http://www.lgmobiles.com/gsm/download/P970 V20B(Gingerbread Version).rar
We don't have it for N version. I saw the russian forum and wanted to ask you about howvyou managed to root v20a before this method.
Sent from my LG-P970 using XDA App

this method is working just v20a(attachment patched bin file) right?
Where how I convert .kdz to .bin file?

I know russian very well.So i shortly translate all procedure done here.
They patched original 20A bin file , changing system recovery.img with clocworkmod recovery.img touch version.
Download 20A.bin extract it,and put somewhere in your computer.
and below there is a CWM flashable superuser.zip.
Download it and put to your Sd kart.Do not extract.
Then simply flash that patched 20A bin file with smart flash procedure posted here from radkor
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448803
After finished flashing with smartflash tool go to cwm recovery and install superuser.zip
and you get rooted original 20A ginger.
Nice option for flashing and rooting
but we do not have 20N bin file yet.
we have only indian version 20B bin file, redpik posted it above

Unless it's a ROM or kernel you've created yourself, this doesn't belong in Development.

Doesn't SmartFlash auto erases all user data (factory reset at first boot)?

Okey... Maybe, tomorrow I will be a version (.bin) V20N

Ok. Let me try to understand this. They replace "system recovery.img" which is reside in the original rom bin file with "cwm recovery.img" (where to get this file?) and then flash it using smartflash tool. So after reset by smartflah, cwm is already in the phone installed. Then all is easy, proceed to install superuser.zip, etc..etc.zip.
How is it possible to obtain root by inserting cwm in the rom while cwm itself require root to run? Also, what's the "system recovery.img" that got replaced. Is it important?
Please investigate more. Need more info on how "patching" is done too. I don't understand russian.

I guess you need to investigate more how android works. Flashing recovery image with the whole system in a bin file makes cmw part of the "original" firmware so,like recovery that only can erase all this one can read/write in the system files. Sounds normal. I read on Samsung forums that they get root for latest versions by flashing a patched odin file and then a su zip. I will try it

Then we can say that this is universal method as long as cwm can be patch into the rom. Finding exploit is not necessary anymore. So, what's the function of the file replaced in the rom. Is it the original lg recovery method which is not available anymore if this we use this method?
Thanks for the explanation, I wonder why it hasn't be use before, maybe because lack of rom file in bin format?
Edit: downloading rom in your link, pls post how to proceed if you get hold of it.

to get the files out of a kdz: grab them while someone is using the KDZ program to update their phone. The files are extracted and put into "C:\ProgramData\LGMOBILEAX\Phone" but as soon as the program detects no phone the entire directory is blown away. Too fast to grab the files. So either you update for real (in which case you have the time to grab the files) or you create a symbolic link between the C:\ProgramData\LGMOBILEAX\Phone folder and another folder you create say name it C:\test. What happens is that files get extracted and then \phone folder deleted when no phone is detected but the files remain on the \test folder. So you get your files which are a "model.dll" file (in p970 case i guess something like lgp970.dll) and a .wdb file which is the firmware. How to proceed though to tinker further with the .wdb file so as to get bin file and baseband still elludes me

I bet our rom cooker knew how to unpack and repack. So, anyone?

update: doing some research and it seems to extract the bin files you need lgutils and the .dll file you get from the kdz extraction but I am not at home to look into it any further.

Can't install OTA using Mobile Odin, Odin and CWM

I downloaded a zip file from sammobile.com's OTA files section. The ZIP contains the following files:
debug_info ==> 1kb (size)
delta.hidden ==> 856kb
delta.modem ==> 1kb
delta.platform ==> 84455 kb
delta.Sbl ==> 1280kb
delta.ua ==> 241 kb
delta.zImage ==> 4936kb
the ZIP file won't install using Mobile Odin, Odin, and CWM. In mobile Odin, it says that the file is not an OTA / Update ZIP file, and merely extracted the contents.
the filename of the downloaded file is GT-N7000_SMA_93970111.zip.
any idea how i can install the OTA file?
I have tried searching this forum and google, but to no avail. it appears that nobody knows how to use the ZIP file.
Any leads would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help.

What was your purpose in downloading this OTA file anyway? A firmware zip file either contains a single file with "tar.md5" as the extension or 3 files for CSC, Modem/phone and PDA file all of which are recognized automatically by mobile odin or can be loaded on PC odin. I don't think sammobile has files for CWM. No idea about the several files that are contained on the one you downloaded. From the size of the files alone we can conclude that this is NOT firmware as normal size is 600-900 MB.
What I understand from the word OTA is Over The Air and as such can only be used either within the device itself to update or thru kies.
Good luck!

I think it is a very specific scenario to use ota.
The ota file probably need you to have previous released versions of csc installed.
Dont know much about mobile odin.
I think ota is a new feature in mobile odin. Best to check cf mobile odin thread.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2

when Mobile Odin extracts the zip file you'll get a.md5 file. After the extraction just select this md5 file in Mobile Odin and you're good to go

According to the OP there is no md5 file contained on the zip file.
As per sammobile:

This section is specially for the die-hard Samsung owner.
The person who love to tweak with their device fully on their own RISK!
If you dont know what to do with these files, you probably shouldn't touch them.
Let those who knows do it insead.
Not all OTA updates are officially released to public! Samsung may use OTA firmwares as tests first.
SamMobile will not help you with all kind of OTA updates.
Using OTA updates is fully at your own risk.
Feel free to use our forums for any kind of question regading update with the OTA files.

AFAIK OTA updates are firmware specific.You must be on certain firmwares to flash the OTA.For exampleTA update yyy may need you to be on xxx firmware for it to work.But sadly I dont know how to flash it....

Could it be that you have to be totally stock unrooted to be able to flash it via stock recovery (3e)? If that's the case the OTA .zip must be stored in external sd. I don't think need to rename it to update.zip, because we can still flash any .zip with the right signature on 3e. Thinking of trying on my Note but it has been 'out of flashed' for close to a month!

Is .tar.md5 the same as .img.tar?

So I tried to install Magisk via patching my boot image, but it failed, and I know from the instructions that I need my stock image rom to be a .img.tar if I want to flash through ODIN. However my stock boot image is a .tar.md5, and even trying to research the issue I just end up getting more confused. Does the rom need to end in .img? Can I convert/extract my .tar.md5 to an .img.tar(.md5?)? Is a .tar.md5 the same as a .tar (the hashing bit I understand) so that whenever someone refers to a .tar, either a .tar or a .tar.md5 is acceptable?
These Linux extensions driving me crazy and I really can't figure out what's what. It might be useful for the main Magisk thread to have a section that explains this kind of basic stuff for the less-savvy. If someone could straighten me out I would be highly appreciative, thanks in advance!

.tar.md5 is a text file which contains hash of the original file. It is used to check the integrity of files.
Compare the sizes of .tar and .tar.md5 files.

Sorry @Shished that has really not helped me at all, I'm just as confused as ever. Thank you for trying though. What is "the original file"? What am I comparing, should I have some other kind of file here? Can I get the original file out of my .tar.md5? I have one file that I believe is a factory boot image and it's a .tar.md5. Believe me when I say I am a complete noob on this and I need the basics of the basics.
Edit: The file originally came as a zip, is THAT the original file?

.tar is the compression used for Samsung. If you extract the .tar, you will find an .img in it. A .tar.md5 is just the .tar with the hash file appended.

Does it mean that .img file can always be extracted from a .tar or .tar.md5 file?

Extracting boot.img from stock firmware

I have the stock firmware for my device (a Galaxy J6). I've downloaded it from sammobile, and it's in a zip file. Supposedly, all I need to do is extract this file with an extraction program like winrar and presto, I should have the necessary boot.img. But all I get are these useless .md5 files. What is going on? Did I misinterpret something?
More than anything, I would just like it if someone finally just explained to me what the hell I'm supposed to do. The Magisk installation guide doesn't even go into detail about how to get a boot.img, it just assumes you have it. It's infuriating.

If it's an OTA full upgrade there should be a file named payload.bin.
You need to unpack it to get the img files. Do it using this tool:

Um, when I tried downloading your program, the page said there were no mirrors found.
Also, there doesn't appear to be any payload.bin file on the zip, just md5 files. And it's been that way for every j6 firmware I've downloaded in the past.
Maybe you should try downloading the firmware from sammobile and seeing whether you can extract boot.img from it?

I downloaded a random J6 firmware in another site.
You have to use 7zip software, it's free, much better than WinRar and supports tons of compression formats. Do these steps with 7zip:
-Unpack zip file.
-Rename the "*.tar.md5" to "*.tar".
-Open the ".tar" file and unpack "boot.img.lz4".
-Unpack "boot.img.lz4" file.
-It's done, you now have the "boot.img" file you were looking for

Sorry for the late reply. I did it. I found the boot.img file! I'll be using it shortly.

But, when decompressed, shows only the archives for instalation for Odin ( CSC, AP, etc... ). No boot.img under other format.

forgive me about that too
Samsung devices by default don't have .img ...
usually stockrom come as .zip then you need to extract it (use 7zip since winrar is not capable of extracting .lz4)
-Rename the "AP_xxx.tar.md5" to "AP_xxx.tar". <~ any similar file with AP from the start
-Open the "AP_xxx..tar" file and if you see boot.img extract "AP_xxx..tar" then grab boot.img it's done, you now have the "boot.img" file you were looking for
-some device have "boot.img.lz4" file. <~ use 7zip again to extract .lz4 file then grab boot.img it's done, you now have the "boot.img" file you were looking for
also it is stupid to grab your boot.img when you are Samsung since Odin only accept .md5 format (does Samsung have access to fastboot or they are stuck using Odin idk never has Samsung phone lmao)
also i forgot to say that you can actually patch "AP_xxx.tar" via Magisk itself so less work

For anyone else having trouble getting the boot.img, but on a custom recovery:
1. Go to recovery
2. Open recovery terminal
3. Enter:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/boot.img
4. Press enter to confirm the command
5. Reboot to system
The boot.img is now on your SD card.

Odin not reading combo files for region change

I have been running into an issue while trying to flash and change regions for my GW3. I know I have the file that is needed for the AP part of the procedure. But after connecting to my watch via wireless download, Odin will not see the files in file explorer on Windows 10.
Watch is Canada region with latest build, and running Tizen 5.5.0.2.
Have ECG, BP, and Samsung health manager caravan loaded via .apk. Just trying to get sp02 running as well until health Canada approves it for the north.
Has anyone run into this issue? Or any insight to a fix?

?
netOdin and Odin and can only handle 2 fileextension...
Code:
.tar.md5
.tar
Best Regards

So if the file I have downloaded includes the .7z extension as well is there a way to convert it to what Odin will recognize? Sorry if this is covered somewhere. If it is, than I missed it. I'm using the YouTube guide for switching regions. Which was where I got the download link from. I do have experience flashing pixels and iPhones. This is my first foray into Odin for flashing files.

Download 7zip (free open source) https://www.7-zip.org/
Use that to open the .7z file and extract the .tar.md5 file
