Real?
Thanks if so!!!
I didn't brick mine, but I'm sure others will be happy to see this.
It was 5.5.959 that was released from VZW and 5.6.890 is the latest leak. What is this? 5.5.1? 5.5.184? Either is significantly earlier than 5.5.959, but the date stamp shows Aug 12, 2011, so I am intrigued. Hopefully the version number just isn't accurate.

thank you very very very much much much

THANKS!
THANKS ALOT, THIS WORKS!!!!! YOU SAVED MY PHONES LIFE! lol

Is this a surefire unbrick method? @techdigital, what version is does it says your phone is running? Also, does one click root still work? If so this is amazing news and perhaps our ticket to finally getting the courage to put some roms on this bad boy.

Pretty sure the version # is accurate. Either way you should be able to OTA to the latest version if this returns you to stock (which it should).

If it can be flashed through fastboot/RSD it's about as "surefire" as you'll get without access to nvflash. Just don't much around with your Bootloader and you should be fine

You're the man.
Just waiting to hear from someone who flashed it. I'm curious about the version number as well. Just want to know if that's the number that actually shows on the phone and if the root exploit is still in effect.
Edit: Just saw that you replied to my post. Sounds great, I can start on some themes now.

Thanks, you're my hero right now lol

OP: Thank you for posting this file, it is the firmware that was pulled from the server that is an unofficial build. So everyone should know that, you will fix your phone but as for now you will be off the upgrade path.

One question - if I put the file "swu.zip" into the root of /sdcard and name it "update.zip", will I then be able to restore to stock from fastboot without using a PC?
If this works, it'll allow me to mod the phone while on the move, but have a get-out-of-jail card to restore to stock at any point. I spend a lot of time commuting, so this would allow me to use my D3 to learn more about android when I'd normally just be using it to watch Family Guy

Note 3 Update Files

Hello,
After sadly never being able to get the NB4 update for my note 3, I was wondering if anyone could send me there update files? (if its possible to update via recovery like that?) If anyone else has any other ideas on how to get my note 3 updated it would be nice (im on MJ5, not rooted).

Best Buy (Samsung) doesn't have the KitKat files yet. I went to my local BB store and they told me that didn't have the official file yet. Also, AT&T will not flash your phone either. I tried that one, too.

Don't Upgrade to OF1 If You'd Like To Root/Downgrade

It has been confirmed that updating to OF1 includes the downgrade protection we've seen in the T-Mobile builds on 5.1.1... You won't be able to root directly on this build, either, since the exploit was patched by this ROMs build date. I will make a package that will allow users on OE2 to to update to OF1 while maintaining root. If you are on OC3 still you can upgrade to OE2 using my tutorial in Android Development.
Can someone who updated to OF1 successfully please try downgrading back to OC3 using the ODIN image provided within this General Thread? Since no one else has released a OF1 ROM/ODIN package I was going to do it myself, but along the way I noticed a change within this update package-- it now includes a magic string header at the very end of the update process, just like the Lollipop 5.1.1 ROMS for other devices that now incorporate protections against downgrading. I'd rather not bone myself/everyone else out of future development if this mechanism is in fact in place.
Thanks in advance! As soon as I have a confirmation it is still downgradable, I will finish this package.

Odin will not downgrade after OF1. I've tried 5 times using 2 different PCs and Odin failed every time.

Why do you say this? Is there a reason why you believe if I have root now I won't be able to flash a developer's modified 5.1.1 once it arrives?

Had a few "?'s" on that statement. Purely assumption on my part, so take my previous statement and my next few statements with a grain of salt. Ping Pong root has been patched and unless they find another method there is no root on 5.1.1. Locked Bootloader, with no way around that, so no custom kernel to root (a la this method). Right now in order to upgrade to OE2, you have to use a patched version that keeps root, what happens when it can no longer be "patched" to keep root in further builds? If you've upgraded already to the latest build via OTA, you can no longer downgrade. Trust me, I want to continue to have root for what ever the latest build is out there but Verizon/Samsung have been locking things down tighter and tighter and there is always the possibility that an exploit isn't found and end up with no root on later builds than what we have now. Again, all of this is just my assumption and I hope to end up wrong in the end about everything, 5.1.1 isn't even out yet for us so we'll see when it drops.

I know this is probably not the right place to post this but i would be willing to donate a 100 dollars to someone that gives me root on verizon s6 OF1. I messed up and upgraded. So I sure hope someone can get root. I have tried everything.
Thanks

Stock KitKat & Lollipop Firmware SM-T707A

What I have here is a stock KitKat Firmware for theGalaxy Tab S model SM-T707A that I pulled from kies when I was trying to upgrade to lollipop a few months back. I have successfully reverted from the newest Lollipop BOE5 back to kitkat using Odinv3.09, and from there you can successfully root with https://www.kingoapp.com/ as I did successfully on the first try. I have looked in every forum that is available on xda pertaining to this tablet and have not found a single thread stating that anyone has successfully reverted from Lollipop back to KitKat so they can successfully root. Well here it is FINALLY!!! At a later date I will upload the Lollipop firmware, but since there is no known root for it yet I likely will not be doing so anytime really soon. Anyone can pull the firmware themselves using my guide of reverting back to KitKat and then pulling the Lollipop firmware manually from kies while your tablet is in download mode by using this guide: http://androidforums.com/threads/how-to-backup-firmware-from-kies-upgrade-process.458795/ (Assuming AT&T still has the firmware in their servers)
Now in case anyone asks, this does not trip knox since it is an official firmware signed by samsung. The process is very simple, just open up Odinv3.09 and input the 4 files within each tab accordingly. The 4 files are labeled in correlation to each slot in Odin so please use your noggin and don't ask me where to put the files individually. Put your tablet in download mode by turning it off first, then pressing the home button volume down and power button at the same time. You'll get a message that says press volume up to put the tablet in download mode, then just plug it in (assuming you have already downloaded the Samsung drivers to your computer) and press start. When the process is finished you would have successfully reverted back to KitKat from Lollipop with Knox still at 0x0. I hope this guide will help anyone with this wonderful tablet as you can do what you want now without worry of bricking your device for some reason.
Firmware version: KitKat 4.4.2
Build number: KOT49H.T707AUCU1ANH9
Baseband: T707AUCU1ANH9
Model: Samsung-SM-T707A
EDIT: 7/11/16
So I borrowed an AT&T sim from my friend and I have successfully pulled the updates for Lollipop. There are 2 updates and you have to do them both separately one after the other. I made it as a simple ZIP file for you to just throw it on your external SD and boot into recovery and select the option for apply update from external sd card. Now it has to be named Update.zip and since there are 2 updates to get to lollipop I named the first one Update.zip and the second one which is the actual lollipop Update2.zip. You have to be sure and rename the second one to Update.zip after you have already flashed the first one via Recovery. I tried updating the second package by itself from a fresh install of KitKat ANH9 and it game me a bunch of errors and just reset my device. So i think in order to take the lollipop update you have to be on the ANK1 (the first Update.zip) firmware before you can take the lollipop BOE4 (the second Update2.zip which you have to rename to Update.Zip). Please back up all of your data as this method will reset your device after applying each update. Hope this will help anyone (especially outside of the country) to manually update to lollipop if you do not get the OTA

As I mentioned in the post I probably won't be upgrading to lollipop anytime soon since there is no root for it yet. I had to borrow my buddy's ATT sim to even get the lollipop update in the first place as I am using it with t-mobile currently. I'm thinking of replacing them with ATT sometime in the near future since i will be going on a trip and need quality coverage where i'm going. Until then I would suggest either purchasing a sim from Amazon and paying for service for 1 week at a cheap price so you can pull the update and maybe intercept it to use for your own leisure, or wait until I go on my next trip:good::good::good:

Epg2 firmware

Anybody get it yet? Supposedly went official yesterday. About 300MB.
I unlocked your mum's bootloader.

It just arrived, and it was about 300MB. IT rebooted into TWRP, which just sat there. I rebooted, and then Andorid complained that the update didn't work. Well, duh!
That said, now I would like to know what I should have done or should do in the future. Any thoughts?

Mine just arrived
What's new?

Just found a story about it here - it is indeed the July update:
http://www.tmonews.com/2016/08/t-mobile-galaxy-note-4-note-edge-july-security-update/
Links in that article will eventually point you to here, where the update can be downloaded manually and installed via Samsung Smart Switch.
https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-16486#update_download
Since I am rooted I am actually not sure what to do, and would appreciate some advice.

300 mb is a big update. If you are rooted you will need to flash the new firmware in Odin. But you may want to hold off. I am note sure it adds any new features and will probably make your device incompatible with any ROMs that are currently available.

So, where should I be looking on my Note 4 for the 300 MB download that happened earlier this morning, so I can delete it or copy/move it off for later?

I just got it but waiting to see if there are any bugs or negative effects. I'm not rooted so there's no way to go back.

I just did the update, and I can confirm that TWRP, root, and xposed all work.
I don't know about compatibility with custom roms though.

OK, so how did you install it?
To shut the System Update tool up, I had to freeze it in Titanium Backup.

Yeah, if you can't find the update. You can just install the latest firmware you can find with odin, then update from settings.

Hi Folks,
I have no idea what "update from settings" means. Also, no idea where to start looking for the update - heck, I don't even know what to Google to find it. Thoughts?

From your device click settings look for about device click then at the top you will see (download updates manually) If you are rooted or removed any system apps dont go that route, the update will fail.. You then would just need the update file to flash with odin.. Might look in overdrives op.

What is overdrives op?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...-maximum-ovrdrive-6-0-1-mm-beta-4-13-t3358326 Here.. you will see the link it a all in one (home) odin file just flash in ap or pda slot depending on which odin you use..

I believe this is the AFH Linky for the new firmware also fwiw: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24588212152306227

So just to be clear, Overdrive is a MM-based T-Mobile ROM, basically just debloated and with some minor tweaks.
As a convenience, he has linked to "N910T Stock Odin Full EPG2 Firmware File," which we can flash using TWRP onto an otherwise stock+rooted MM 6.0.1.
I got this right?

The PG2 file he has a link to is stock. That thread is for his pe3 custom though. I haven't made my rounds through note 4 thread yet. I maintain another android site and all the devices in my sig are active. I'm never on the same thread everyday....lol
