I searched this forum and did not find so here goes. Quite by accident I found on the app All-in-One-Toolbox from the app store, that there was an app2 SD button and not being able to help myself I went down the list and chose a few that didn't matter. Pressed the button and by God it worked! So I did more, and they worked! I haven't rooted yet and if this is old news I apologize, but I sure couldn't find it anywhere. Hope this helps someone :angel:

**EDIT Should be All-In-One-Toolbox application
I just get that apps2sd is not available...

Hi, maybe it's model specific? I'm SM-G900A. You did see edit? and use correct app->> All-in-One-Toolbox? Like I said, I didn't realize this option was on . I was replacing my clean master app that was driving me nuts after upgrading to this phone. So I was setting this up, running thru basics, clear cache, etc., and I found it. Let me know if you have any luck.

I have kingroot installed no custom rooms and software version 4.3. I have tried to update my software and it stops at about 25% every time. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks
You will have to do the Restore to MJ5 tutorial in the general section.
Root normally screws up the update.

What if i wanted to remove everything from the phone root/safestrap and go back to stock?
Root doesn't screw up the update- Kingo does. I was in your exact shoes.
I did the MJ5 restore, rooted, did the OTA update and then did step 10 again for root. Works perfectly. Then I did Drakey's GPS Fix and now everything works great.

I'm sorry, that is incorrect. Root will mess up an update. Kingo roots the device, that is it.

Perhaps anecdotal, but I went in circles with Kingo. Couldn't unroot, couldn't update. Its method of rooting is not the same as other 'conventional' ways.
After restoring and rooting via the MJ5 restore process, I updated to NB4 with no issues. I didn't need RootCloak or anything of the sort. There are others. I haven't read of others successfully updating w/Kingo root. I could be wrong.
I did remove the root using kingroot web site but the safestrap was still there. I could not up date the phone. So i reinstalled kingroot again and iam back to square one, a rooted phone but cant up date.

I have dont see this file in application manager, but if i restart my safestrap comes up on my screen. Its safstrap 3.71 (twrp v2.6.31) i dont see a delete button.

I have been buried in XDA threads for a few years trying to learn as much as I can (thanks for that by the way)
The title of this thread is Can't download update so I hope I am asking this in the right place.
Plus over time I have come to learn that jerrycoffman45 is damn good at this stuff...
First off when I go to the MEGA site (https://mega.co.nz/#!Hd1QnA7b!MV5i7du4oim9zKLArQl51tTYiymqIXMhaALsMjFHRyQ) to download the "Coming from JB" for KNOXRAID KITKAT ROM V5.1 it works normal until it gets to 99 percent.
I've tried it on all 4 of my computers with the same result = is there another way I can get it?
Secondly, after I install the AllianceROM (thank you RErick) and am setting it up, my phone starts playing the boot animation like it keeps restarting like every other minute or so.
I really want to use the AllianceROM and could not find anything related to this when searching the thread or the entire forum.
Any help would really be appreciated!!!
Try using Internet Explorer or Chrome to download from Mega. It is a picky site.
Try to do a factory reset in the stock recovery. I have had to do that a few times right after installing a ROM to get it to boot properly.

try downloading the mega app then downloaded it on your phone with that app now for alliance rom sounds like you might have a bad download if there is no md5 to check i try opening the zip on the computer usually if it is bad it will give a error if the download is good reread the op for the rom and make sure you are following the instructions to install the rom and this is not the right thread for this you should have started a new one if none of this works pm me
edit try what graydiggy said first
I was going to suggest the mega app, but since he seems to be having trouble with booting, it was pointless to mention.

I used to reed these threads and told myself that I would not waste the developers time with questions I could find the answer to my self...
That being said I did follow the instructions to the tee
I also tried creating a new fresh slot in safestrap and wiped it and flashed it a number of times following the examples given at different points of the threads
I have learned to follow the process that drakeymcmb has posted (wipe 3 times flash twice) on every install I do especially it its not working
I have 3 separate zip files downloaded to cover the corrupt file issue BUT I have not tried graydiggy's suggestion
If that does not work I will PM you if I figure out how to do that...
I try to give you as many thanks as I can and understand why people donate = you guys deserve it
Heck, I have paid good money for support as an IT manager and the techs were not as helpful as you guys are
One thing more, could you please direct me to the best thread to learn the proper protocols for XDA posting...
Thank you again

How do I overclock my Samsung Exhibit. T599n? I purchased it at MetroPCS 2 days ago and rooted using Cydia Impactor. I do not know much of anything about this device. So first I need to find out if it is possible to overclock.
I appreciate any input.
Since this forum is for the T679, you won't find much help here. As far as I know they don't have a dedicated forum on XDA for your phone. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Ok. It's there... General disussion of the T599n. Now I have some info! And some reading to do.
Today I reformatted my 32GB sd card on my computer. Then I was able to use it again. Then I reinstalled Busybox, then opened the AParted app. Made 2 partitions and rebooted. Then I opened Link2sd, set primary partition as EXT4. Rebooted. Opened LINK2SD again and linked all non-system files. Haven't tested it yet. Will get back with how it's working.
Guys I've been searching for a working copy of safestrap. The ones that have been posted are not working. Can someone please help me out??? I would greatly appreciate it.

I get a long pause at the samsung galaxy note 3 screen and then it reboots. I am rooted. Busybox and super su are working. Dont know what's happening.

The same thing happened to me. I did a factory data reset in settings/General/Backup and Reset. Reinstalled Safestrap, then it worked. I did a Data restore in Safestrap to get back apps.
So what happened was i disabled emergency now when i ever i boot up my s5 I cannot see the Ultra power saving UI so i cannot turn it off. I restarted the phone and took out the battery that didn't help . Resetting my phone is not an option .
Can someone please help me i need my phone....

It is definitely soft bricked, it doesnt boot properly, you can reflash or trya factory reset. Were you rooted?

I don't think so because i can access the settings and notification menu . The UI is just completely blacked out with the status bar on top . And when i get a message i can access it . And reply to it too same for phone calls. There is just no button to disable Ultra Power Saving because of the lack of UI.
I Disabled touch wiz and emegency , And im running launcher 8 , Thats most likely the reason of it not working
That is exactly the reason why, theres a thread in the general section for this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785363 and it says reflash, so thats what youre going to have to do, try and be more responsible with what you mess with next time.

I brought it to AT&T they re flashed using a custom rom
I have International Note 5 with stock Singapore DVU firmware. After updating to stock Marshmallow a have serious battery drain and when the phone reaches 20% it shuts down by itself. I need to go back to 5.1.1. software,
I did downloaded the software from Samoblie, can I just start Odin and connect the phone a flash the old Lollipop software to the phone? Or is it better to do factory re set first, and then flash the software? I am not rooted. Usually i root all my Samsung phones but this one was almost perfect so no need to root. Am I missing something important? All my settings will be erased? What about pictures and music on the internal memory card? All gone?
thank you for your answers.
