[ROM][SM-G900X] Custom Firmware for SM-G900X Live Demo Unit

Hello to you guys,
with this thread I wanna help people who get a Live Demo Unit of Galaxy S5 and wanna "unlock" it, removing Retail Mode and getting an official firmware on it. A Live Demo Unit is recognizable cause the phone has an "X" after the "SM-G900" signature.
Before start explain, I wanna remember to all that with a Live Demo Unit YOU CAN'T DO PHONE CALLS or TEXT MESSAGING due to its nature. So, this custom friwmare will transform your Live Demo Unit in a beautiful and complete Galaxy S5 "WiFi Version" .
Ok, lets do this!
What you need for a great job is:
Samsung USB Drivers on your PC
Odin, downloadable from here http://odindownload.com/ (vers. 3.09)
TWRP Recovery, .tar extension (here is the link for the download http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/klte)
Firwmare of your country. You can get it form sammobile.com. I've done this with the G900F version and I've tested only with it but I think this kind of guide works for all devices. Be sure to download the correct Firmware of your device!!
A program named "cgywin" for create your own firmware for the Live Demo Unit http://cygwin.com/setup.exe
Do this AT YOUR OWN RISK!! If you're not sure to have understand something, please do not go any further.
Ok, so let's start to explain what to do. If you'll follow step by step this procedure, you'll reach the goal for sure
First, I think is better to do a good and complete backup of your actual firmware and system. To do that follow those steps:
Install Samsung USB driver in your PC (if you don't have it already). Be sure that the phone is visible by your PC.
Turn off the device and go into Download mode (pressing VolDown+Home+Power).
Open Odin and connect your device to the PC.
Now flash the TWRP Recovery (select "AP" voice on Odin and choose TWRP .tar file you have already downloaded)
Ok, now you can do a Nandroid backup of your entire phone, including system, with Recovery. So, turn off the device and go into Recovery, then choose "Backup" and flag ALL the voices (so you'll be sure to backup all). Save it in external MicroSD so you can get it simply if you need it.
After the complete backup, it's time to "prepare" the custom firmware:
Install cgywin (for a complete guide for How To Install this program, Google it)
Download the right firmware for your device
Once file is downloaded you will have something looking like this G900FXXU1ANCE_G900FITV1ANC7_ITV (this is the one I've used)
Extract the .zip file to get an .md5
Rename it with like ldu900x.tar
Go into the folder were you've install cgywin and put the ldu900x.tar here
Now, launch cgywin.exe and type those command
$ tar --delete --file=ldu900x.tar NON-HLOS.bin
$ tar --delete --file=ldu900x.tar modem.bin
After that, the ldu900x should have only those files on it:
- boot.img
- cache.img.ext4
- hidden.img.ext4
- recovery.img
- system.img.ext4
If there are other files that are not those I've checked above, please delete them using the command $ tar --delete --file=samrom.tar FileName on cgywin as explained. The final .tar file gotta have only those 5 files I've listed above.
Once the final ldu900x.tar is ready, you can flash it with Odin.
Before the flash, use TWRP for a TOTAL WIPE of the device (including system but do not wipe the extSDcard). This is for to be sure that the device will be ready for a good and clear flash.
After the flash with Odin, reflash the TWRP Recovery (following the steps above) so you can do other backup or restore the old firmware if you need it.
Hope this guide can help all the guys who need to use their LDU completely (excluding calls and SMS as said). Personally my LDU doesn't have Private Mode, Finger Scanner, S-Health, UltraPowerSavingMode and other stuff, but with this "custom" firmware made by myself, now works ALL! :victory:
Bugs: The only thing that does not work here is the upgrading of SHealth Services that does not allow to upgrade it to SHealth 3.1 version. If anyone know how to solve this I appreciate
Thank you guys for your support and thanks to:
@Dees_Troy for TWRP
@Sirus2012 for have opened the way
@jopa7 for suggestions
Fell free to offer me a beer (or a meat can for my 5 cats )
Have a good flash to all!

You can install a superpower rom, mate. Install omega with omega kernel after root with chain CF auto root and install TRWP. Install latest omega zip via trwp chosing omega kernel too. You will get 37000 antutu score or more . By the way, GPS signal works

Sorry for trouble... Its my mistake in renaming the file

Dr.Ketan Method
- Download SuperSu 2.46 from chainfire and copy to SD
- Switch Off device and reboot to download (Vol down + Home + Power) to get into download mode)
- Get custom recovery (I have used Chenglu's CWM 6.0.5.1)
- Uncheck Auto reboot in Odin and flash custom recovery
- Once flashing pass, reboot device to recovery manually (Vol up + home +power)
- Flash SuperSu zip you copied in step 1
CMW recovery link: http://d-h.st/9ahQ

Dr.Ketan Method also Works... But you will Lose Stock Recovery//

Will this trip the warranty flag?

What features are people using that require root? I just got lollipop on my 910g and wondering if I should root

is there a link that i can use to download without the crap. @sriszone

i have tried downloading N910g-cwm-recovery-6.0.5.1 a number of times from different sites and its always corrupt

Try flashing latest TWRP it will then root Rom once you go into recovery and reboot it will ask if you want to root

Y u guys using custom recovery.... Check the thread guys for cf auto root

SM-T807T 5.0.2 firmware

Pulled it down today, I'll have a Mega link shortly but I put it through the works installing via Odin, then using auto-root to gain SU access and everything seems to be working so far!

Can u please link the files u used to root the tablet on lollipop. Thank u.

So, if I understand you correctly the linked file is the CF Auto-root for a T807t on the latest T-Mobile 5.02? This is great if this is the case. I was beginning to lose hope.

This is a stock firmware you can flash through odin but there are more up to date versions. You can use the downloader tool to get the latest.

[Q] Rooting AT&T Note 3 Lollipop

Hello! I have been searching the forums and google, but still a little confused on a few things and hoping you guys can help me out.
I have the stock AT&T Note 3 on Lollipop (N900AUCUEOC2) and I am wanting to root the device. From my understanding, I am needing to downgrade the baseband version via Odin, then root. I did come across this post in an older thread (I didn't want to resurrect an old thread):
Rooted i747 said:
You can't root OC1, but you can use Odin to downgrade to NC2 and root it. Odin v.3.10.6 http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3109599&d=1420980613. Once you Odin back you can use Towel root or Kingo root (links are posted above your post). Then install Supersu https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu&hl=en and run it, install Busybox https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox&hl=en open and install it, then Safestrap http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=7216. (You should make a backup once Safestrap is installed before you flash any Roms). Once you're done you can pick a Rom for your Note 3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-att/development Now you ever use Odin? http://www.samsungodindownload.com/odin-tutorial/ (The site only shows flashing the All-In-One file so you know). Use all 4 Odin files, N900AUCUCNC2 ODIN Files, BL https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96042739161891602 AP https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96042739161891890 CP https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96042739161891603 CSC https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96042739161891604

But, this was in response to a person with the baseband version of N900AUCUEOC1 while I am on N900AUCUEOC2. Can I follow these same instructions using the same 4 files he uploaded or will that brick my phone? Or, is there a different method you guys recommend to rooting my phone?
Many thanks!

Thanks for the quick response! I will be trying this shortly and let you know when it succeeds

Sorry for the double post, but it has successfully been rooted! I initially had a Korean popup in Odin upon plugging in my phone. Using a different PC resolved that issue. Other than that, zero issues. Greatly appreciate the help!

Will this method trip the knox counter? If I understand it properly I don't think it will, but I just want to verify.

Im wanting to root my att note 3 on the oc2 firm ware but using heimdall if possible. I don't have access to a windows pc right now. Any way to do this. Heimdalls front end just does not have a gui much like odins at all. Tried jodin or what ever it wont work at all.

Could you tell me what do with Odin? Do I have to do anything after downloading it? And do I have to use Safe Strap if I'm not flashing any ROMs? Thanks :thumbup:

From the first post where I was quoted from (pictured below). Each one has two letters in front of it so you know where it goes in Odin N900AUCUCNC2 ODIN Files, BL https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96042739161891602 AP https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96042739161891890 CP https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96042739161891603 CSC https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96042739161891604

Thank you for being quick. I upgraded to Nougat and then tried to root and my phone stuck in recovery mode boot loop. I was able to downgrade to 6.0.1 with odin md5 file. This will help get back to Nougat and attempt to root again.

What version of odin did you use and where did you get these files from?

omg...thank you thank you thank you thank you!

70 downloads and only 5 thanks seems a little unreasonable for the first Odin 7.0 files.

I have an att branded S7 Edge with 935u FW on 6.0.1. Flashing these files will update me to Nougat correct? Also what version of Odin should I use to flash? TIA!

Oh how I wish I had this when I softbricked my device last weekend, had to flash the tmo firmware over the non booting at&t firmware

flashed this a couple of days ago and so far everything is great.

when I unzzipped the files, I see 4 zip files ending with .tar, they just need to be placed in odin to flash, correct? Or do I need to rename them to .md5

No need to rename. When you open Odin you'll add the files to Odin using the buttons (BL,AP,CP,CSC) AP will take a while, be patient. After all added, hit start and sit back
