I don't think so. There's not been an OTA for that. That would be the only way, to sideload an OTA that was specifically meant for that build combination. Your bootloader would need to be unlocked to flash the factory image.

To my knowledge, those require an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery.

Well, you can install some themed apks from Team BlackOut, @cerj, @Archangel, and a few other themers, but there is little else on these forums to which you can avail without taking that first step.
I don't question your decision, as that is rightly yours or your employer's, yet one cannot change the reality of things...this entire process begins with unlocking the bootloader.
There are bounty threads in the Samsung forums for AT&T, Verizon, and other networks, all to attain that first step. You have a device wherein the ability to unlock is painless, and to attain your objective, it's a must.
Either unlock and flash the build you want, or keep it locked and do not get the build, there it no middle ground.

fastbootsideload??? Do you even Nexus?
In all seriousness, go to the general forum and read the beginner's guide.

If you unlocked to upgrade 5.1, you can always re-lock the bootloader once done.
In fact, that's exactly what I did after unlocking and using fastboot to upgrade from 5.1 "D" to "E" - partly to test out the steps and also to get more familiar with the phone, commands, etc., the other aspect being some added security.
This is the process I followed (from info in the Beginner's and OTA threads), which also includes a link to Evolution_Freak's re-locking topic.
I'd recommend reading up on these things for the Nexus 6 - there's good info in these forums and it might expand your view of what is best for you to try.
(I am admittedly thinking of going unlocked, because OTAs are turning out to be carrier-controlled for this phone and unlocking/re-locking seems fraught with human error on my part)

The only way to change ROM without an official OTA is to unlock the boot loader. There is no official ota.

Does rooting Mi 5 needs Unlocking Bootloader???

To root Locked Mi5, is flashing dev version or flashing SuperSU enough or We need to Unlock the Bootloader???

You get the pro version only in black. Which is the ceramic version. And it isn't available yet. They will be soon. (Those who have it have a code, that they used to get it early)

Right now only the 32GB / 64 GB in white / silver is sold.
I got the 32GB... and that was hard to get.
If you want any color but silver / white, then prepare yourself to wait at least a month.

Yes it's easy and takes less than 5 minutes, if your MI Account is allowed to unlock.
One MI Account can unlock, one phone within 30 days.

I had my rmn3 unlocked within this month so it was easy to unlock mi 5. It hasn't been 30 days since that, I didn't have to re-apply for another unlock permission.

How did you found your encryption password to allow twrp reading all partitions? I'm rooted because the dev ROM give root by default (just enable it in the security center)
But when I flash the twrp 3.0.0.2 I can't find my encryption password... Tried my lockscreen password but didn't work. Any ideas?

No you don't need. Just update your phone through the miui update app to this version, it will erase all your data.. Then in the security center, you can enable root
But the only twrp recovery working to flash something is "maybe" because I'm trying right now... Working with the Stable Global ROM 7.2.7.2

I tried to update to the developer rom but got the warning saying you are upgrading to an old version. Please suggest me is the developer version new or old.
Also, do you have any link for global version for MI 5. I think none has been released yet.

[ROM][ROOT] Tab S 8.4 - SM-T707V(Verizon) Stock Pre-rooted ROM - Tester required.

I built this ROM as a test for those who have locked bootloaders on the Tab S and can't get root.
In my experience Samsung bootloader locked devices will not allow a custom kernel or recovery to be installed. However it is possible that the bootloader will allow a modified rom to be installed.
The rom is bone stock Lollipop 5.0.2 except it is pre-rooted with SuperSU 2.49. It needs to be installed via ODIN. If ODIN allows it to flash then its highly likely it will boot just fine.
If there are any issues that arise then all that is required is to flash the stock firmware, available here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-T707V/
T707VVRS1BOK1_preroot_system.img.tar
If anyone gives this a shot, please report with details.

If it works for the T707v then I'll do the same for the other Bootloader locked devices. It all depends on whether ODIN will flash it or not.
The reason I have used the T707v is because this device at least has the stock firmware available, so it should be relatively safe to try this.

Not many wanting a rooted t707v then.

Seems so, would have done it for the att and other Verizon model if it worked. Wouldn't want to test it out on an att model first with no stock firmware available.

I don't believe Odin allows modified system images to flash on bootloader-locked devices.

It does, it depends on the device's bootloader.
Plenty have been rooted or modified this way.

Exactly why I said let's see anyways
It's just that the S5 and Tab S are so similar in so many ways and were release at the same time on VZW, that I thought they'd have the same locks.

What do you mean you ran it and did nothing at all? It doesn't unlock the bootloader.
Its the stock OS already rooted.
Did it install successfully with ODIN?
What is the state of root when checked with Root validator?

Exactly, if he'd have only took the time to at least let us know if it installed OK with odin. It seems like it did which means that he should also have had root.

Need help to downgrade my note 8 to a previous update (N950USQU7DTA3)

So, couple months ago AT&T released an update (in January 2020) which I saw a significantly improved battery life by 25% I was planing to disable my updates for future updates because I really liked it! However, 2 weeks later one day i wake up and my phone forced a new update and the battery life got back to the same even worse that what it used to be before that first update! Now, I am looking to downgrade my update to (N950USQU7DTA3) to be specific. I cant seem to find the file. Is there a source to find it? Also, Its been years since I've done this. Is there a way you guys recommend doing it without causing any issues?
Thanks!
