Hello,
After sadly never being able to get the NB4 update for my note 3, I was wondering if anyone could send me there update files? (if its possible to update via recovery like that?) If anyone else has any other ideas on how to get my note 3 updated it would be nice (im on MJ5, not rooted).

downloading it now. I tried to check ota on NB4 but I keep getting software update interrupted. Hopefully I won't have to keep on relying on others to post the update files in the future. Thanks for the help, wish you would have responded to my first thread on this issue a month ago, but it looks like those update files were recently uploaded.

with kitkat that is because of the kingo root even if you unrooted do this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51203967&postcount=1 or if you are near an att service center you can take it to them and they will flash kitkat for you also bestbuy can too

Best Buy (Samsung) doesn't have the KitKat files yet. I went to my local BB store and they told me that didn't have the official file yet. Also, AT&T will not flash your phone either. I tried that one, too.
Has to be a att service center and both can re flash NB4 for you if you flashed the kk leak you need to do the mj5 restore first then go see them

Personally I like the Tizen upgrade. There aren't as many apps released compared to android. But the interface and performance is much nicer.
I am gutted not as many apps but defo a nicer layout

today I upgraded the Gear to Tizen I really do like this . I see Wondershare MobileGo no longer works now. also I don't see a way of having ringtones anymore. is there a way to obtain root with this update?
I flashed 5.1.1 using via odin 3.10 (no errors etc.) now my phone stuck at Powered by Android screen. I tried to reflash the firmware many times but still the same thing.
Before flashing 5.1.1 my phone was running Looper firmware. I did modify the build.prop (ro.securitystorage = false). Does this cause the issue?
When i get into recovery mode i see this yellow text
"dm-verity verification failed...
Need to check DRK first..."
Please help me to revive this phone. Thank you

If you get stuck in a boot loop go into recovery and do a factory reset!
Follow these instructions :
1. press: power/home/vol up keys at the same time.
2. Use vol up/down to get to factory reset
2. press pwr button to select
3. maneuver to erase user data, select using pwr button
4. maneuver to erase cache partition,select using pwr button.
4. Reboot
I did all those steps many times and reflashed the rom like 10 times.. Still the same thing

restore your efs back up (original one) then reflash the rom via odin. If you don't have your original back up then you're out of luck
Wow. That's crazy. Guess it just goes to show how important backing up your efs is. I haven't, but I'm also not a Samsung guy. I will now.

I Got a tmobile note 4 from craiglist, Now the phone is asking me for Samsung Account Activation? is there any way i can bypass this? please, any help will be so much appreciate it.
thanks
When do you see this? Are you able to wipe it in recovery?
I would contact the person that sold it to you, they basically locked it where if it resets, you need their samsung information to unlock the device. Don't think reformatting will do anything, but you can try to reformat via Kies

I did a factory wipe recovery with the buttons pressing combination, however it still ask for the samsung account, and I can't contact the selle.
Thanks
If you can't contact the seller & they sold you a locked phone, maybe try filling a police report. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that considered fraud?
If it's just the reactivation lock though, there's a way around that.

Have you rooted the device. You should be able to wipe the Internal storage. I'd try flashing a CM based ROM.
The device should be usable still. The use probably had reactivation lock turned on that's why the Samsung account has it locked down. Also the phone itself may be stolen. You may want to check the imei if you can view it to see if it had been blacklisted.

my dude, relax, i'm not sure this would work but i see no reason why not since it completely reflashes the phone's firmware
I'm mobile at the moment and maybe someone else can link you
But you need Odin and the full tar files of the latest firmware (Cog2?) and a windows machine.
Once you have those we can walk you through the process.

Hi,
Thank you for posting the firmware. Downloading as I write this post.
I have the S7 Edge SM-G935A for AT&T. Ever since I did the Nougat update, it seems that my phone has slowed down considerably since then. It boots slow. I'm getting a lot of lag and stutter upon booting up my phone and it just doesn't perform the same as it has when I got it a year ago. A family member of mine has the same phone but doesn't have the issues I'm having. I have a SD card in my phone and they don't but there's no difference in performance if I take the SD card out or not. I've done multiple factory resets and setting it back up as new with no data. But the same issue happens. Even in safe mode it seems to have same issues.
Compared my phone to a friend's Note 5 and the Note 5 beat my phone in terms of performance. It starts up faster and just feels more quicker then mine.
Since this is 100% AT&T stock firmware, this won't void the Knox warranty at all since I am not rooting?
Also, my phone right now is on the August 1st security patch. After flashing this, I will then be able to update my phone back to the latest security patch?

Thank you for your answer to my questions. I always get worried of doing something wrong when trying to flash the firmware.
Is it required that I use all the files with Odin to flash the firmware? Or can I just use the AP file since I've never rooted before? Also, I've read online about having to enable OEM unlock and USB Debugging when flashing. Do I need those enabled or can Ieave them off since I'm not trying to root?
Thank you!
