Hi Guys,
Need Help on my Root im trying to Root my phone S7 Edge SM-935T with Odin V3.14.4 to add TWRP it fail. Try many different firmware (twrp-3.5.0_9-0-hero2lte.img & twrp-3.4.0-0-hero2lte.img & twrp-3.3.1-0-hero2lte.img ) but no success. could someone assist me. What am i doing wrong?
Andriod 8.0
Samsung Experience 9.0
Andriod Security Patch Level: December 1 2019
Thanks in Advance!!
Looks like the up-to-date bootloader is not letting the custom recovery to pass by, a custom odin might become handy?
There are a few forms on the SM-G935T on how to root, it may take time but has a success rate.
Those recovery are not for ur specific model they r for those with g935f or g935fd.
T mobile has locked bootloader so essentially it is unrootable as international versions like the exynos plus the custom bootloader have a big hit on performance and battery so it is not to try root or recovery (if u r lucky and have an older bootloader) .

I just purchased a Galaxy S5 unlocked, but its an at&t model (g900a, shows at&t logo on boot, has at&t bloatware). I live in New Zealand so I can not use an at&t sim and update to the latest firmware (ph4?). Im stuck on g900aucu4coi5 and I want to update, and I have found a guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s5/general/galaxy-s5-android-version-6-0-1-t3419016
Can I just flash ph4 with odin 3.11.1 and I will be fine? No chance of brick or tripping knox (assuming i follow instructions correctly)? Also is there a way I can debrand my s5 and give it a stock s5 rom w/out the at&t crap without tripping knox?
This may seem like a noob question but I have followed instructions to the letter while flashing roms on a galaxy trend plus and a galaxy y duos, and encountered problems down the road which led to bootloops. I assume this was because the tools made for them were still in beta for these devices were not popular, but I still want to be safe and keep my new s5 alive.
Thx

You should be able to go up to PH4 using ODIN no problem.
And about the bloatware... As soon as we find a way to root or preroot Marshmallow we'll probably get some debloated ROMs up, but first we have to find a way to preroot (I'm working on it but it's taking the back burner for a bit while I work on other ROMs so anyone is welcome to give it a try)

Yes, and no. It updated, started overheating and the battery caught fire. Rip.
I'm in the same boat as I have an ATT S5 with Lollipop and tried the above method w/Odin and it is now a brick, stuck on the ATT logo.
Are there any working accessible sources fore the ATT stock Firmware for Lollipop in order to rollback this MM update? I've been looking and have found none.
I got a Samsung S6 Edge (Verizon SM-G925V) today and heard I should upgrade to 7.0 (Nougat) firmware and hope it gets rooted soon. Is the baseband version I have root-able? It's G925VVRS4DQD1
To my understanding, the tool on autoroot.chainfire.eu WOULD work, but because the bootloader is locked down, it will brick the device instead? Is that true? Is there any hope that 7.0 will be rooted soon for my device? Any input on this would be helpful, thanks.

I tried it it said something about recovery not sure what but in Odin on the phone screen it said recovery fail
So do i. However, it won't brick your phone. One time i tried to upgrade to 7.0 or downgrade to 6.0, first boot i saw a pic of a lock is unlocked when i first boot. Next time i boot, it disapppears. Any idea?
I think this phone is unrootable for now since Verizon is like "you can't make it because i don't wanna my phone naked, haha"
Same problem here. recovery fail. How can I root my G925V Nougat?
I have a tab s2 sm-t710 on nougat T710XXU2DQCL that was installed OTA and would like to know if i am able to downgrade to 6.0.1. The device is 100% stock and was wondering if ODIN would give me any grief about downgrading. The PDA number of the 6.0.1 file is T710XXU2CPK1 (Cellular South).
Thanks
On paper, I think you should be fine. :angel:
I'd also like to know this as battery life seemed much better on 6.0.1 for me.
i did downgrade my T 815 from 7.0m to 6.01 using odin. didnt face any difficulties. i did a complete wipe/format after i downgraded .
Can you not downgrade with TWRP as well?
Anyone knows how can I downgrade this tablet? It's in stock

I used Odin and firmware downloaded from sammobile and it worked flawlessly. I've performed downgrades on over 100 tablets so far and they have all worked good.
Downgrded my t713 long time ago and didn't have a single problem, you just need to download a compaitable firmware from sammobile!

You're safe to downgrade as long as it's allowed. Older builds will fail immediately so there is no harm to downgrade.
I've seen a few people asking about downgrading. Whats the reason behind this? Is N glitchy?

N does not work at all well with DJI drone remote controllers. I foolishly updated my brand new SM-T719Y 8" and Now I cannot connect to my drone at all. I have an pre 2016 Tab S2 on Android 6.01 and bingo works.
This size pad is the preferred size for drones and has enough grunt to provide stutter free vision. Cannot comment on anything else about N as this pad will only be used for my drone...

Hi Beut,
I have been trying yo downgrade my Tab S2 SM-T719Y LTE from Nougat to 6.01 and have correct downgrade and Odin. Every time I try to downgrade it fails straight away, so I was wondering what you ment by "as long as it is allowed" & "older builds" will fail immediately.
I need to get this happening as I cant fly my drone.
Cheers Yts...
I don't have your model so it cannot verify. However, other models I can downgrade to older builds close to the Nougat.
Like SM-T580 or SM-P580, both are Android 7, QF1 and QE4 respectively. I can downgrade them to PL4 or PL2, Android 6 but not the PG1.
Q: 17 or 2017
P: 16 or 2016.
The second letter is the month it's released.
You also need the right bootloader, different OS has different bootloader. Many just flash the AP file only without bootloader, it'll failed when downgrade.
Is it possible that you cannot downgrade Nougat to 6.01 as every time I try on my SM-T719Y Tab S2 LTE, it fails straight away. I have tried 3 different downloads and all failed, but Odin will let me overwrite my Nougat with a downloaded version of Nougat from the same web location as I got one of the 6.01 firmwares from.
Here are my fail messages.

Is it me or is it this model of the Tab S2 SM-T719Y????
When downgrade to MM you need the BL ( Bootloader ) goes with the AP . Boot loader of Nougat is not the same as MM , however bootloader of LTE version is locked
Sammy doesn't want you to downgrade.. nougat is planned obsolescence, I'd say.

Hey I've been trying to downgrade my T719Y for days now. Constantly failing and googling everything I can to find where I'm going wrong.
How would I know if I have the LTE version? And if I do and the bootloader is locked, does that mean I can't downgrade?
If I don't have the LTE version, you're saying I need the bootloader and AP to downgrade? Where can I find the bootloader?
I'll keep searching and trying but this is wearing me down. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. My surveyors can't do a damn thing with our giant UAV until I fix this
LTE version is the one that has SIM, usually it's next to SD slot. Most LTE versions have locked bootloader, that's why you cannot downgrade firmware.
I just kept an older phone for apps available only for 6.0. Like scr recorder. Otherwise there are no reasons to downgrade
Hello,
I have Samsung Galaxy Note 8 SM-N9500 HK variant with the latest Firmware and security patch
I bought it since 1 month. eagerly waiting for installing TWRRP and rooting it using Supersu
I tried the following TWRPs through Odin
1-Galaxy Note 8 N9500 Unofficial TWRP Android Nougat 7.1.1.tar
2-Galaxy_note_8_twrp-3.1.1-0-greatlte.img.tar
3-N9500%20Nougat%207%201%201%20Unofficial%20TWRP.tar
4-N9500_TWRP_3.1.1-0.tar
5-N9500+Nougat+7+1+1+Unofficial+TWRP.tar
All these when installed through ODIN showed "PASSED" in Odin. but failed to install in the phone, I can not reboot into recovery.
Then I got the following 2 TWRPs
6-N8-TWRP-835-3.1.1-1-greatqltechn.img.tar
7-N9500_TWRP_3.1.1-0.tar
Both installed , I swiped for system modification, then wiped to factory reset, installed SuperSU, but failed to reboot into system. it is bootlooped in recovery , I have to flash my stockrom to recover the phone.
So if anybody have the knowledge how to install the correct TWRP and root this variant , kindly help me and others who are in the same situation. It will be great help if they can provide the links for downloading the necessary files
Thanking You all very much

Hi everyone.
I just bought a new Nokia 8, but it's on Oreo. I want to rollback to Nougat and root it.
However I saw many things here on xda and I fear to mess with my phone.
So first off all, here are some details of my Nokia 8 :
- Model TA-1012 (64GB/4GB RAM)
- Oreo 8.1.0
- Security update December 1, 2018
- Kernel version 4.4.78-perf+
- Build 00WW_4_88B_SP07
_______________________________________________
Downgrade :
I've downloaded 2 firmwares :
NB1-484A-0-00WW-B03.nb0
NB1-4390-0-00WW-B01.nb0
Problem 1 : I don't know if there are Nougat 7.1.1 firmwares, so if anyone can confirm it ? ALso is it good for TA-1012 model ?
Problem 2 : I also saw the same firmwares but with "QFIL" at the end of filename. What is that ? Is it necessary ?
Problem 3 : How to downgrade with firmware like these ?
Unlock Bootloader :
I know that I have to unlock my bootlader, but I heard that there is a critical mode, how to do it for my TA-1012 ?
I saw this topic but I don't think its about critical mode https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-8/development/official-nokia-8-bootloader-unlock-t3848051

How to ROOT my phone ?
_________________________________________________
Thank you in advance guys, I love that phone too much to brick it :laugh:
Why to you want to downgraded the phone? Is nougat better is performance or battery?
On all my phones, the most old firmware is always faster and less battery consumming than the last (I measured it).
But right now, I've succeeded to unlock my bootloader offficialy. However, when I tried to boot TWRP with Fastboot boot twrp.img, it's stuck on Android Logo Of course I can reboot my phone but I can't flash TWRP...
Is it becasue of 1st December update ? is it because bootloader isn't critical unlocked ? Or becasue of boot a & boot b partitions
Apparently it's because of December Security Patch...
Can I downgrade my phone to nougat to be able to root it ???
