t-mobile note 8 odin flash failing - GSM-Forum

jtnorbert · 01-25-2018, 02:39

hi guys. i unlocked a note 8 and everything went fine but now when i try to flash the stock firmware, regular odin gives me sha256 error. the modified odin gives me model mismatch. the tmobile note 8 was on QI5. I'm trying to flash QLA now but i keep getting errors. i unlocked a note 8 the other day and was able to flash stock firmware just fine. anyone know what odin i should use to get this to work?

ok, i don't know what the issue was but i was able to flash a U1 firmware to it with no problem then i was able to flash the tmobile QLA with no issue.

Hello
For model missmatch issue use more latest odin from support area.

I a m assuming that you are talking about the 3.12.7 one. i tried that as well. in all i tried 6 didn't version of odins and none would work rather they were the regular, prince comsey. sha256 hacked, or the ones in the gcprokey "repair files folder". i can never find this "support forum" that you mention. Now i am going through this issue with a sprint note 8. this is crazy.

Check your file. Maybe the file you use is not for N950U or N950U1

I had same trouble before, just flash last U1 firmware with Prince Cosmy Odin. It is pretty most bloatware free and very nice with networks modes.
