so i used odin to revert completely back to stock jf6 firmware, everytime i try and update it goes thru the process of updating and stops during reboot at 50 percent and says download failed, can anyone help me troubleshoot this issue. im all ears, thanks in advance...
this seems to be happening to all of us who had been rooted at one point or another
yea this will be my fourth try. this time im going to do a factory reset and sign into the market and see what happens. i wonder if this has something to do with the jf6 zip that all of us are flashing back to....
interesting. ive been seeing a fail message as well but 3-button recovery is working now.

Can you use File Explorer or USB debug to see if there's an update.zip in /sdcard on your device?
same here. i've tried everything.
Also I should mention that you can cheat the 24 hour system by changing the clock manually to a day later... lol

Guys.. chill out - the Samsung official announcement said
"An update to improve the Samsung Captivate's GPS performance is now available. Captivate customers will receive a notification on their device that an update is available and will simply need to download the file to update their phone. The updates will be pushed to customers' devices over the next few weeks."
You do not need to check for the update yourself.
not the point. the point is, it is possible to get it now, and it's not working for us rooters :/

Well said... I'm not even worried about the jh7 update, we've had that for a while now, I'm more worried about my phone being ABLE to receive updates than anything else.

well... i backed up my contacts with kies... i'm going to completely clear everything and go back to stock...
after that i'll re-root. but i'll be sure to use the adb shell to backup the stock kernel...
Its working now for me, I also got the updated failed message and have rebooted my phones several times through the day and just verified on google maps twice that it zoomed in accurately
My phone is rooted and have every setting in ryans lag fix set...oh yeah I got the beast unleashed installed.

call me stupid, but how would I go about installing this?
Help! I'm trying to return to as close to stock as possible so I can get a warranty replacement (SD won't mount, random shutdowns recently, Facebook/Twitter unable to sync). I was rooted, but have unrooted & done a master reset, but superuser.apk is still showing. How can I delete this without being able to mount to a computer via USB?
I've tried every USB port on my MacBook Pro & work Dell laptop and 2 different USB cords. No dice. Help!

shoulda removed before un-rooting... but still
pretty simple. do a factory reset. or use Odin3's 1 click (NOT Odin3 flasher) to restore it to factory At&t.

ok there might be one or two.. but they will smirk at you.
Superuser app should go away if the phone is unrooted.
Unroot your phone again. I had to return a phone with a dead USB port and had to do this as well. I downloaded One Click Root/Unroot, and from the download, took the "unroot.zip" package, downloaded to my phone (email to self, dropbox, etc), renamed it "update.zip", and "reinstalled packages" in Android Recovery.
Reroot, delete it with root power, unroot.
Thanks for the responses, folks. Most of the research I found said to reroot/delete/unroot, so I'll try that. Easiest method I think I have available is the update.zip packages from the One Click Root/Unroot program. Will update after work today when I get a chance. Thanks again!
Thanks!
Thanks to everyone. Rerooted, deleted the apk & unrooted again. Looks like I'll be venturing out in Denver's icepocalypse to AT&T/Best Buy to try for a replacement after all.
Oh, and +1 Trusello! I may be an unabashed noob, but I know a lot more than any AT&T rep I've come across.
This is my first post and I'm going to try my best to not break a rule. If I do, I apologize in advance.
Thread thread is a sort of, "This is how I updated my phone from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2 and rooted it but your mileage may vary."
First, thanks goes to Sunderwear for his directions on how to push KitKat to the Samsung S4 Active as well as ROOT it. I rooted my 4.2.2 phone a few months ago and didn't realize doing so would prevent OTA updates. I went to the AT&T store to have them put 4.4.2 on the phone only to be told that the store didn't have the image (or whatever they said) and couldn't put it on my phone. Instead, they put 4.3, which turned out to be great because the directions pretty much have you going back to 4.3 in order to root.
BTW, if you are uninitiated, you may want to read this glossary page.
After having root in 4.2, I knew I wanted it in 4.4.2!
For the most part, I've been hesitant to flash the phone. I tried like hell to flash my first Android (Samsung S2 Skyrocket) only to brick it. (FWIW, if you can tell me how to fix it, I'd be gracious! It buzzes once and then twice and repeats.)
Anyway, I started in the thread above only to find that I now needed to download Odin. This, surprisingly, was difficult. I found this site (http://odindownload.com/) which I am convinced is some sort of hacked version of Odin because when I tried to install from there, my Symantic warned me. When I disabled it, the file tried to install a bunch of bloatware/spyware. It EVENTUALLY gave me Odin.
FYI, this thread was of no use. No download links.
Later on, after searching for something unrelated, I got to a "better" site. Unlike the link above, this site has a zip file compared to the bloat-ridden executable.
I learned that I had to use Odin 3.07 and NOT Odin 3.09. Odin 3.09 did not have the PDA button that would be central to me flashing the ROM to the phone.
I started my journey on the thread for the Stock AT&T Firmware Collection. I learned that the thread uses the last three characters of the build name to identify the build. For example, 4.3's build name is I537UCUBML2 but was referred to as "ML2". This was a bit confusing but I got the hang of it. I then went over to the 4.4.2 rooting thread. It was there that I read Sunderwear says that you need to downgrade to 4.3 to root 4.4. I was grateful that AT&T only updated me to 4.3!
Sunderwear's second post described how to root 4.4.2 if you had a rooted 4.3. Since I hadn't done that yet, I proceeded back to the firmware collection and found the thread to root my 4.3 phone.
I downloaded the files and loaded up the first file to flash. I made the mistake of keeping my phone plugged in while trying to put it in download mode. It was when I stumbled upon this page that gave me the clue that my phone had to be disconnected first before going into download mode.
Once done, I clicked Start and Odin flashed my phone! It took about 2-3 minutes.
The next step was to do saferoot. The thread didn't link it so here it is.
SafeRoot requires your phone to be in USB debugging mode. Directions were found by googling. You go to Settings, About Device, and click Build Number until you get a message saying you have enabled developer mode. Then go back out one screen and go into Debugging options and enable USB debugging.
One installed I rebooted the phone and everything worked...except for wifi and "some other stuff". The thread warned you about this so I didn't worry. I flashed the next file and rebooted. Updated SuperSU and everything worked!!
I verified that I had root by installing Root Checker.
All was great with 4.3! Now for what turned out to be the more agonizing part: Upgrading to 4.4.2.
Going back to the 4.4.2 rooting thread, I learned that all I needed to do was install SafeTrap to update to KitKat and then flash a couple more files. I downloaded pwnedkitkat.zip (link in the thread) and then installed SafeTrap. I presume that SafeTrap is some sort of bootstraping method of updating the firmware.
I copied the SafeTrap apk file, along with pwnedkitkat and the updated superSU zip files to my external SD card. Once everything was copied, I installed SafeTrap and then opened it. SafeTrap then offered me the option to install Recovery Mode. Once done, I restarted my phone.
I noticed a new splash screen after the Samsung splashscreen. I clicked the Menu button (left of home) to start the recovery process. I clicked "Install" and pointed it to the pwnedkitkat.zip file. This took the longest. Probably took 15 minutes but felt like an eternity. I wasn't sure if my phone bricked when the screen turned off! But upon turning it back on, it was still going.
The bar moved very slowly. But remained patient. After a long 15-20 minutes, it updated! SafeTrap gave me the option to reboot there but I followed the directions and installed SuperSU from the SD card. It was a quick install.
I restarted the phone! I was done!! Right?
My phone got stuck on the AT&T splash screen! I started to panic! What did I do wrong?!
I missed Sunderwear's step five:
5.Put your phone in download mode and flash the 4.4.2 stock boot.tar.md5 kernel and your phone will boot after a few minutes with root access enabled.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Goes to show you to read everything. I missed it due to the line break. I downloaded the boot.tar.md5 file and put the phone back into download mode and push it via PDA in Odin (I presume PDA. It wasn't explicit.)
After a few hours of chewing my nails and wondering if I bricked it:

So thanks to everyone! Now if I could only unbrick my Skyrocket!
Outstanding instructions! Thank you for this. I wish all the instructions were as clear and detailed as this is.

I think what got me was all the new terminology and unfamiliarity of flashing. Jailbreaking an iPhone (which I've done before I had an Android) is pretty simple. It's pretty much point and click. But ROMs, flashing...these all have definitions which can be a bit overwhelming, even to a technical person such as myself. I've compiled Linux kernels from scratch!
But there's something about making your phone unusable. Something that I cannot live without, especially as I'm searching for a job.
It's nerve-wracking and I especially got nervous when I was putting KitKat on since it took so long. But overall, I'm glad I did it.
Mike, I wish everyone's instructions were like yours. I am in a similar boat as you, currently on 4.2.2 rooted and unable to do an OTA. I am not really sure what to do as I do not want my phone to be wiped. Did you bring your phone to an ATT store or a Device Support Center? And when they flashed 4.3 did your phone lose anything?

Use Titanium Backup. Just make sure you don't restore system apps and you'll be fine.

I took mine to the AT&T device support center. I called before going in and they pretty much told me it was going to be destructive. I had previously wiped my phone earlier that day in the hopes that it would receive the OTA update.
I'm not going to lie: it's nerve-wracking, but straight forward. I know sometimes it helps to have someone hold your hand while you do it. And for me, it was definitely in the camp of, "What am I going to do if my phone craps out on me?"
But like what someone else said: you can back up your settings within Keis. I didn't. I just did a wipe. I backed up my photos but that's about it. Everything else was in the cloud. The one thing I should have done was transfer my Authenticator keys to another device because I couldn't log into AWS (which does not give out backup codes like Google). I did end up switching to Authy (I can't link to it since I'm such a new user but you can find it in the Play Store) which allows you to have more than one device. It shares your secret key between devices so it's technically less secure. But I needed the flexibility in case my phone crapped out on me again.
Pro Tip: to install all your apps again, go to the Google play store on your device and click "My Apps". Long hold one of the apps and then select the check boxes of the apps you want to install.
And hey if you run into anything there's plenty of people who check this forum regularly. I've managed to root 4.2.2 , 4.3, and 4.4.2 while retaining full functionality, just from this forum...the information is out there good luck!!

What system apps need to be reconfigured? I can't really see that many that it would take you more than 15 to 20 minutes.
Thank you guys, I need to get my phone serviced anyway as there is a yellow dot in the top left of the screen that won't go away. So if AT&T sends me a new phone I can do all of the dirty work and then transfer everything side by side from the old device. If they won't for whatever reason I will do what you guys suggested. So just to be clear I should follow the instructions to Odin to 4.3, root, then follow the upgrade/root instructions to 4.4.2?

I personally thing this is better since if you have 4.4.2 already, you have to downgrade to 4.3, root it and then put 4.4.2 on it.
I just bought myself an almost mint condition Nexus 6 (build MRA58R). It's running Marshmallow and I tried rooting it today. After I researched how to go by obtaining root I tried it out, felt very confident, didn't come across any errors. But then when I was booting back up, a screen with red letters saying something about my phone being corrupted was not allowing my phone to boot. Naturally, first I panicked. Afterwards I researched, found and then executed a manual flash of system, boot, bootloader, cache and recovery images. Then, my phone was back up and running. Discouraged and defeated, here I am knowing I could've done some better things with my time than mash commands into a terminal to fix my nooby mistake for a few hours. How should I approach obtaining root on my phone if at all possible with my model?

I didn't even need to read all this stuff. First thing I did was get into developer mode and almost instinctual that I turned on OEM unlocking before setting about unlocking the bootloader.

Yeah I bought my N6 recently and had a bad first time experience too. I ended up using a toolkit to root and all that, didn't need a custom rom so I kept it stock with TWRP and I'm very happy. Since then, I rooted some of the old devices I had laying around (you can check my signature), so I should be more prepared next time I need to update. My problem is I didn't really understand the commands, what did what and what exactly was required for root. Now that I have had plenty to practice with I'm pretty comfortable with commands and recoveries. Practice makes perfect I guess

I hope not. Google's software and design will be the weak point. Google could not give us some simple options like a dark interface, reboot options and dpi settings.
So, people, to sum it all up... The road to obtaining root on this Marshmallow enabled phone is?
If bootload is locked, unlock it - This will erase everything backup your device
1. Get modified boot.img for your version, flash it
2. Flash twrp
3. Flash SuperSu 2.52

You have a stockrom now, right?
if you want to keep that for now then this is the easiest way. The TWRP step is there to be able to flash the custom kernel. (and of course make backups and flash other roms in the future)

(it will save you when you ever get locked out from your google acoount because you became aflashoholic)
Before coming across the link in this forum here at http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...y-steps-n910t3-dofc-dog1-how-to-root-t3177225 ...
I thought I could shortcut all the work by going to the auto root chainfire site to download the actual CF Auto Root File for model sm-n910t3. I successfully flashed that file using odin. It went into a bootloop and then I freaked out.
The error messages when I turn on the phone first show
"kernal is not seandroid enforcing" in red, and
"Set Warranty Bit: kernal" in yellow writing.
After being in this bootloop i went to the link posted above and followed each step by step. My phone is successfully rooted now and I can log in to my phone fine. However, there are two problems. First, those error messages are still there. How do I get rid of that? I tried a factory reset on my phone and it wont do it.
Will get to that after. Second, when I go into twrp by hitting volume up+home+power, once im in there it wont allow me to backup my current rom. It says an error message about E:/ data mount or something like that. And also while in twrp it won't let me factory reset my phone. So the recovery program is pretty useless to me. I don't know why it doesn't work properly.
Where do I go from here? Can someone help me out in fixing this error message and getting a recovery program to work? I'm just wondering why the twrp that I flashed while following that root guide above does not work. Has anyone ever encountered those two error messages while turning on their phone? Thanks.
The error messages are normal after rooting.

So other people have those messages on the top of their phone after rooting this device? Im guessing we just ignore that message then? I thought it was there because I flashed the wrong kernal before doing it the right way and following the forum...
What if I flashed the original firmware for this note 4 phone that I have a copy of, then root the phone going through that tutorial step by step? Wouldn't that get rid of the error messages? And my twrp would work then?
Im not able to make a backup of my current rom. And Im not even able to factory reset this phone. This is a problem for me since I want to put marshmallow on here soon. When I do I get an error message. Part of my second question is wondering why twrp isn't working correctly?
please help
i took my battery out to charge it and put a new one in. now it wont even boot up. it turns on and says
"custom binary blocked by FRP"
"secure fail: kernal"
for those of you who followed my other post i rooted my phone and tripped knox. phone was giving a message but would still turn on. where do i go from here? i have everything backed up and can start fresh. please provide step by step instructions on how i can fix this phone. thank you so much in advance and god bless.
I went to samsung and downloaded the firmware for this device and then flashed it. Now it's back to normal so you can disregard my post. Thanks guys.

Drink my ovaltine? Hash tag for uber noob? Didn't your parents raise you to not say something if you have nothing nice to say at all? Apparently not so who's really the ignorant. Ask yourself that question. Ignorance is bliss. That's a good hashtag huh.
And the bottom line is that we were all beginners at one point right? So cut me some slack im learning. It will take me time to get to where you guys are at. Yes I am brand new to this stuff and no I don't like the iphones. Androids are more user friendly. I like Samsung phones and want to learn more about them.
Its people like you that keep us beginners from wanting to come back to this website, when guys say blatantly rude comments. It shouldn't be a bashing forum. Let's all chill and get along.
