Can this be done? I have ODIN flashed Canadian Sammobile firmware on the NOTE 4 but I want to know if I use the TMOBILE firmware with the different baseband ANK4.
Would this screw up something? Or can I just revert back to NJ3 incase it does not work.
Thanks
You might end up with a very expensive paper weight. But it you must try, do share.
Don't do it, you'll regret.

Odin wouldn't let me. I guess I can't do it.
If I was in your position, I'd be wiping the sweat off my head right now, lol. :laugh:
Flashing is risky, but as long as you have the right combination of model, kernel, and recovery, and ROM on hand, you'll be fine.
Not sure what works on your Note 4 model as its Canadian-specific. The international Note 4's usually have more versatility and flexibility in terms of Rooted-ROM's availability.
I'm using the T-Mobile model, development is fairly acceptable.

The only way to MAYBE flash ROMS is still in ALPHA testing and it is not a true flash but a way to load ROMS and fake the boot system.
Currently there is no way to flash ROMS to this phone.

its Safestrap right. but can i load other roms from tmobile note 3 or international note3 that doesnt have aroma?i have tmobile.
the reason i bought a at&t note 3 is because i got it from a friend.traded my nexus 5 for it.

From what i saw in the thread about safe strap the ROMS have to be tweaked to work with safestrap so only ROMS developed around safestrap will work.. Even then it is still iffy if they will fully work.

Solarenemy68's reply seemed easy to understand to me. Are you having difficulty understanding it? In case you did not understand it...you can NOT flash ANY rom on the att N3. None. Zip. Nadda. Nothing. The bootloader is locked. Without an unlocked bootloader, you are not currently able to flash a new rom. If you do, you will brick your N3. Period.
If you want to flash new roms on a N3, you should have purchased a T-Mo N3 as that bootloader was not locked.
I hope this clarifies things for you.

Wow! Bad day at work?
We can flash roms using safe strap recovery by @Hashcode . It works fine and even gives you "multi boot" that most devices would die for!
Roms are coming already and things are getting good. International roms can be ported. T-Mobile roms run without much of a fuss.
We CANNOT flash bootloader, kernels, or modems. But with a locked bootloader this is about as good as it gets.
If your going to give someone information, at least give them correct information.

Didn't have a bad day. Didn't intend to sound rude. Your signature indicates that you have a N9005 not a N900A. If I am mistaken, please correct me. I've had a N900A since launch day and have been following the development quite closely, I thought. While the N9005 and the N900T have unlocked bootloaders, I have not seen anything other than alpha testing for the N900A, and @Hashcode has not yet released Safestrap for the N900A.
Please post some links for loading roms onto the N900A, or apologize as it is you that seems to be providing the incorrect information that can potentially damage someone's device. If you are correct about SAFELY flashing roms onto the n900A, I will post an apology to you and the OP.
Thank you.

I do indeed apologize. SS became available on the 16th and the first flashable rom became available yesterday. I missed both.
Apparently, roms are now flashable via SafeStrap. My apologies to the OP as well.

Hi!
Was just about to try and root my Gear 2 Neo, I noticed my firmware is r381xxu0bnl2 rather than NE5.
Is there anyway that I can downgrade?
Don't wanna try just flashing the firmware incase it bricks etc.
Any help is appreciated..
Thanks.

Download the Odin file from Samfirmware.com for the NE5 firmware and just flash it back down with Odin.
Or there are links here: LINK
Then do the root, cant guarantee the root will work with the bnl2 version.
It may be worth trying the root, if it screws up the system you can always flash the firmware from Odin again, its quite hard to brick Samsung devices unless you mess with the bootloader.

I noticed that the release countries were quite patchy, judging by the way Samsung phones work I dont think you will find a problem flashing a Canadian or UK rom on your watch so long as the model (sm-r381) matches the firmware you find to update it to. I believe all the Gear 2 neo's are all the same hardware so flashing it with other roms of the same model should be ok.
Btw I am running the Polish 5.0 rom on my galaxy s5 and have had no problems. So running a Canadian version on a US watch should be fine, so long as you dont mind the rom being made for the same country justin bieber came from. :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Man, that was below the belt
The risk of flashing a Canadian ROM is that the only notifications are for hockey scores :highfive:
Just kidding....I'm in Canada but still pondering if I should upgrade....as I posted elsewhere on XDA, I have ZERO problems with BNE5 and Note3. Even the battery is amazing (10-15%/day for light use)

reply same here. ill mess you up even more. im on BNE5 for that watch and NH7 for my note 3. now we have a NL2 for the watch and a NK4 for the note 3. im staying put where i am till i see a rooted with kernels and i see a tiezenmod for the watch. lol everything works. im not sacrificing root or o.c just yet.
So has anyone downgraded back to ne5 from nl2?
Edit_____
I was able to flash tiezen mod 3 over nl2 no issues.

Ok, you can flash the old firmware but:
1-won'th the phone answer to upgrade?
2-Will you lose the new firmware feature (maybe battery things or so?)
Will try to root NL2...finger crossed...

Why isn't ATT stock firmware available for the edge yet? Seems a bit weird that all other carriers have our available, but ATT users still can't Odin back to stock in case something is wrong with their phones.
Can anyone shed any light on this? I'm just curious why it's taking them longer than others.

Good luck, man. I read your last post. I just rooted my s6 edge and I think that's enough for now. I am still waiting for TWRP and custom ROM until it's confirmed to be safe.

Don't get me wrong, i think it's great that the s6 edge can be rooted. I'm super happy about it. But I want to be able to revert to completely stock in case something happens for me to root it. And as it is currently, i'm not sure the ATT version can use Odin to get back to stock. Are there other ways of doing this?
EDIT: ATT users can't use Smart Switch either for recovery (yet?).

I think the bootloader is different for a non-US model, even if it is Qualcomm and thus ODIN will fail to flash the firmware for a different model. You may be out of luck on this one I feel, but maybe someone else has a way to get around this without root.

This.
However i dont know if prince comesy odin would flash this or not.
Im leaning towards it would allow the flash but i dont know if the firmwares are cross compatible different device models so likely not.
Try at your own risk.
sent from my Exynos S9 plus, Pixel 2 XL or Note FE
I had done this on my international G965F S9+ and patched ODIN would let me flash it successfully, but the phone won't boot due to some "mismatch" error because of the some security checks Samsung put into Bootloader so you can only run matching CSC, Modem, AP files.
SMH...how much effort they put to restrict users from rooting and customizing their phone...so much for openness they had promised once when they hired the Cyanogen guy....

but so far, everyone has neglected to mention that it required a modified version of Odin to allow for cross carrier firmwares to be flashed. I had to do the same with my S9 when i wanted to flash the U1 (unbranded) firmware on the S9 i got from cricket

Correct, but that's typically something the person wanting to do the process of flashing firmware on a $1k phone should research or ask about here on xda. As much as I love helping to provide information, it is best for the user that is wanting to undergo the process better educate themselves on what they are about to tackle.
If it had the likelyhood of causing a brick, I would definitely tell them straight away. But other than that, we all get a nice sense of accomplishment when we do flashing that we weren't too sure about. At least I do.?
