You can try twrp by travis82 here.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/c9-pro/development/twrp-c9ltechn-t3646970

It has been confirmed that it works for variant devices like yours. Good luck.

 

[alisami2000]

Are u sure that this will work for c9008

Since there is no reference to c9008

Only to c9000


You sure this will work?

can i just flash this rom using odin?

 

[amincom]

I'm using same model C9008 and already applied it and using to post this reply so it's safe if you know how to do.
You can't use odin to flash custom rom because it's file is in differnet format.

Guys I have tried TWRP but it isn't working

The TWRP gives me error

So TWRP is not compatible with sm-c9008?

Any way to do TWRP

On this Variant?

I too have samsung c9 pro sm-c9008 (china variant)
only marshmellow is available yet, but sm-c9000 roms also supported,and you have the latest firmware and the international apps.

i took a smart switch backup and then flashed twrp (c9ltechn) and flash with LATEST odin then your firmware will corrupt and wont work, but you have taken your backup, then download latest SM-C9000 firmware (i recommend hong kong region, im using too) flash it and restore your samsung smart switch backup.

Now your running the international version of c9 pro. (BUT ROOTING THE PHONE IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE)

Proceed at your own risk!

1. Download latest odin tool.

2. Download twrp for china variant: https://twrp.me/samsung/c9ltechn.html.

3. Flash twrp and check if stock rom is not corrupted, if not, nandroid backup.

4. Now wipe everything in the phone.

5. Download rom (nougat), SM-9000 firmware is compatible with the SM-9008 hardware (check my image attached) but download the "hong kong" region firmware. Basically your changing your Asia phone to an international phone.

(If you want different sites... Google "samsung c9 pro hong kong nougat stock firmware" and download the sm-c9000 rom and flash it)

NOW AFTER THIS YOUR PHONES IN INTERNATIONAL STATE. DO NOT FLASH CUSTOM RECOVERY AGAIN, IT WILL SOFTBRICK!!!!

ENJOY USING YOUR NEW ROM. ? feel free to clear more doubts.

Thank u very much for the reply. how can i check that that my stock rom is not corrupted. and what is nandroid backup. and my phone is not having the oem unlock option as well.

No. since your changing your rom, the rom your currently using might get corrupted after flashing the TWRP. If it doesn't get corrupted, boot to custom recovery(TWRP) and backup your current rom (BACKUP>SYSTEM).
If your rom is corrupted (when restarting your phone after flashing custom recovery(TWRP) the phone will be soft bricked) but you dont need to worry because you can flash back the new sm-c9000 rom. ?

Download the CROM.apk https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...ease/crom-service-1-0-4-android-apk-download/

Enable Developer Option by navigating to your Settings > About > Software Information > More > Build Number. You need to tap the Build Number option more than 5 times or until you get a pop-up ‘Developer Option Enabled’

Navigate to Settings > Developer Option and enable OEM Unlock
Install the downloaded CROM Services app and disable Samsung Reactivation Lock.

Run the CROM Service app and tap ‘Unlock Bootloader’.
