[Q] Flashing CM12 fails - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am trying to flash CM12 to my Note 4 and it fails. It states that it is meant for devices "trltetmo, trltecan," but mine is "trlte." I do have the t-mobile version of the phone (had tmo for going on 4 years now). What did i do wrong? I used CF-auto root + odin to root the phone, and then TWRP+Odin to get TWRP on it. Did i root it with the wrong CF file? I used the file labeled "CF-Auto-Root-trltetmo-trltetmo-smn910t" which i believe is correct one.

I had some issues when installing CM12 in my Note 4 also. To clarify what is the model of your Note?, for example mine says SM-N910T. Also recent cyanogenmod roms have had issues with clockworkmod recovery and they recommend TWRP be used to flash their software.

Mine is the SM-910T, and i do use TWRP to flash.

Code:
This package is for device: trltetmo, trltecan; this device is trlte.
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/external_sd/cm-12-20150308-NIGHTLY-trltetmo.zip'

What version of TWRP are you running at the moment?.

TWRP-2.8.1.0
I think i see the issue. The TWRP is for trltexx. Is there one specifically for trltetmo?

Yeah also the most current one is 2.8.5.0. Right now the one you are using is for the International version which is trltexx . Here is the link to the T-mo version in the TWRP page:
http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/266
If this is against the rules I apologize in advance.

Is it really SM-910T, or did you mean SM-N910T? also what bootloader are you on NK4 or NJ7? Did you buy the phone from Tmobile or somewhere else?

[WARNING] YOU CAN'T ROOT or install recovery on T-Mobile S5 to 5.1.1!

This is a [WARNING] Don't flash any other thing after you update Tmobile S5 to 5.1.1!
I have just flashed 5.1.1 and tried to flash CF-AUTOROOT / TWRP / CWM / ANY ROOT OR RECOVERY and I stucked at bootloop while the phone kept on ringing 4times at the T-mobile boot screen.
i think Samsung had changed something to prevent from install recovery or root on S5 in 5.1.1.
We should wait for someone to make 5.1.1 root.
The good news: You are able to downgrade from 5.1.1 to 5.0 or even 4.4 just by flashing previous firmwares using ODIN.
Without any problem. Full service, imei, SV, .... everything's fine.
Try wiping your caches in recovery. Same thing happened to me for 5.0

Try doing what Kevin said. Otherwise reflash the update in Odin, download here or mega mirror.
After I installed Recovery or root, I do full wipe.
But remain the same.

I haven't tried it, my S5 is 900F international. And I don't know the procedure for flashing T-Mobile roms on the 900F.
Maybe we can flash the rom but I'm pretty sure the bootloader and kernel is a no go.

Try this, run cf auto root, let it reboot, yank the battery, reboot to dl mode and flash ONLY the stock recovery from the update and reboot

Add this to your op so people don't freak out lol
I'm sure we'll get a working root method for 5.1.1, iirc I read the S6 running 5.1.1 was easily rooted, even without tripping KNOX
Can anyone post some screenshot of this release? Thanks in andvance!

[GUIDE]How to Revert to Stock/Reflash firmware/Unroot[TWRP/NON-TWRP]

Hey Xda,
Today I present you a guide on how to
REVERT TO STOCK OR REFLASH​ firmware on the Asus Zenfone 2 Laser ZE5550KL.
This guide is applicable to both types of users ie who use TWRP and who don't use TWRP.After following this guide your phone will also be unrooted.
For TWRP Users
Here I give you links to two firmwares which you can directly flash via TWRP recovery.
Version:1.13.40.496
Link
Version:1.17.40.1234
Link
For Stock/Non-TWRP Users
The procedure is a little long here ==>
1. Download the official firmware from asus website.
2. Copy the firmware to the Micro-SD and rename the file (firmware) by one more(version).This renaming should be according to your current firmware version.If you have 17.something firmware and you download 16.something firmware then rename the 16.x.x file to some thing like 17.x.x For eg. if you have 1.17.40.763 then rename 16.x.x file to 1.17.40.764.
3. Reboot the phone.Android should automatically find the update file and offer to automatically update the software.Do it !!
4. Go to stock Recovery and wipe cache , dalvik cache and data.
5. Reboot device. Your phone will now be unrooted(if it was rooted before).
DONT FORGET TO PRESS THE THANKS BUTTON IF I HELPED YOU.

Before going back to stock and re-rooting to see if the issue was still present, I thought I'd ask if this is something to worry about ? I have the ZE551KL (Z00T) and have been flashing for this device with no problems whatsoever. What is it that I did while unlocking , rooting, and flashing twrp that may explain why the build number and device model don't match? Additionally, at times my PC will recognize my device as a MotoG when my device is connected to the PC via USB . I don't have access to my PC right now so I can't say this with certainty, but I think my PC recognises my device as a MotoG only when the device is in TWRP.. Maybe that means something was done wrong while unlocking the bootloader?

Well, I'll be damned. I was doing so much flashing at the time that I didn't put it together. Oh well. I've been back on the stock CM kernel for days and everything finally works as it should again.
Will flashing this stock ROM on TWRP replace my current TWRP recovery to stock recovery on boot?

Firmware is MM-based, can you flash this after you installed beta 9, because this is N-based?

Nice but what do you fix. If it is only a message that is displayed at boot but has no negative effects what is the point of fixing.
In my opinion using firmware and modem from mm for n can't be a good match or let's say better.

Why would you want to flash old firmware and modem, not made for this ROM, just to get rid of a pointless message?
Especially when there are other methods to fix this so called issue ...

Its a bug related cb9 firmware. U can use cb7 firmaware to fix it..
This makes sense. I was on open beta 8 for a few days
When I stumble across open beta 8 firmware + modem, I flashed it. Phone was working without issues prior to that, so I dont know what possessed me to do that because after that I began receiving dmverity message right after bootloader warning. I immediately knew it had to be the updated firmware/modem. Unfortunately I was unable to access twrp anymore. I ended up bricking my phone trying to revert this issue lol all is good now. I suggest you do not update to any firmware/moden newer than cb 7.

Exactly I believe there is no point in flashing old firmware only if you can't wait for 5 sec.
If this was a bug oneplus would have pushed a patch out by now.

Don't even need to wait, just press the power button to skip it (same applies to first bootloader unlocked message).

it's easily avoidable (but the phone will be decrypted)
after flashing ob9 successfully and booting to system, reboot to TWRP (.28) and wipe convert data to f2fs then wipe it, then wipe internal storage (back up your data to your pc 1st)...and that's it, if you want root, reboot back to TWRP and flash root, then roboot to system, dmverity will be gone, and the phone decrypted,
(this will work if you started with a clean ob9 install like sideloading, and you ended with a full stock ob9)

[J700T1] [MetroPCS] [Stock Rom] J700T1UVU3AQC3

THIS IS FOR SAMSUNG GALAXY J7 METRO PCS VERSION. DO NOT FLASH ON OTHER VARIANTS.​
If you have messed up your system while trying to root and need J700T1UVU3AQC3 firmware to recover, or if you just need to upgrade to the latest firmware, here is the official unmodified Rom:
Download link:
https://mega.nz/#!ltcgwYLZ!R0n3FyaDUCtY8yiMrppFpbxNaSHnjiSUZSMQiU_o-kk
1- The firmware is on Mega servers. Please use a PC to download. If you have to use your mobile device to download, use the Mega app or set your browser to "desktop".
2- The firmware files are zipped. They should be unzipped and flashed via Odin.
3- This version upgrades the bootloader version to 3 and therefore downgrading to previous versions becomes impossible. So if you are happy with your current firmware and you think you may change your mind after the upgrade, stay away from this.
3- Rooting this firmware is possible through flashing TWRP via Odin and then superSU via TWRP. As I am sure you are well aware, that process will trip your Knox flag and renders your warranty void.
4- As usual, I share this with you AS IS and I have no responsibility if it breaks your phone. USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Hey guys. Are any of you experiencing random reboots on the latest firmware? My phone randomly reboots for no reason. It has done this several times and the 2 times i can remember was 1. Phone rebooted when i was connecting to wifi. 2. It also did a reboot while in a middle of a game. What gives?

The metro qc3 works nice in the T-Mobile and does not harm it any way, I did mine , no problem
Rooting is a problem with this security 3 since no TWRP is working with this version yet. But there is a eng root boot.img out which does the job, they charge 50 USD for this file.

I have t mobile.i flashed this firmware once with flash fire, and then once with odin.lost my efs both times. I had someone send me the t mobile one and it was fine, I flashed the same twrp and it was like normal. I don't know if someone uploaded a different version of twrp or what, but the ones that have been on xda for the past 8 months do the job fine. I switch between the twrp for the j7, then the j700T specific twrp. I don't run stock, but all the roms I run with this twrp and all 3 kernels I use in development I also root through these recoveries.
@ Droid, what ROM are you running?
My Tmobile j700t qc3 had no issues when using j700t1 qc3 all was good. But twrp not working with qc3. Maybe yours was different firmware. But looking at other Samsung Tmobile and Metro pcs I never had an issue cross flashing them. Maybe you used not compatible firmware when you Lost efs , usually that happens when using lower bit or wrong modem file.

Is the new update N910TUVS2EQE2 rootable?

I woke up and my phone had a message saying it was ready to update to N910TUVS2EQE2. Has anybody updated and rooted this fw yet?
I also recieved the update, I won't update for that reason. But the notification is annoying.
It's been forever since I had rooted my phone, finally updated, then had this update and installed it while it was still unrooted. But now I want to root the phone, so no one has tried it yet? Only thing I've noticed with this version is it seemed to have tried to keep a connection via wifi instead of bluetooth to my watch, which lead both of them to have some serious battery drain.
Now that I've set it back to bluetooth, let's see how well it does. The watch (Gear S2 Classic 3G) had to be charged twice in one day, it was terrible.
Unless T-Mobile has suddenly reversed a long-standing policy and locked the bootloader on a previously unlocked device (something I have not ever heard of for any device), you can still flash TWRP recovery from Odin and then flash SuperSU from recovery, which does not modify the system partition. This should just be a minor security update for Marshmallow and not an update to Nougat, which would have much bigger compatibility consequences but which should still be rootable by the above method.
I can confirm it's rootable. I just installed it this weekend, upgrading from 4.4.4 finally. I've got SmoresV1 ROM installed over it, Xposed up and running, all good so far.
Would be great if we could get a nougat release.

So let me see if I understood what you said, you installed the EQE2 and flashed TWRP, rooted it, then installed another ROM over it?

Yes, pretty much: I ODIN flashed QE2, did a factory restore from stock recovery (to clear out KK bits), ODINed CQ Auto Root, ODINed TWRP, and then flashed Smores ROM from TWRP. I was exclusively on FireKat ROMs since I got the phone 2.5 years ago, and Smores is by the same developer. Very lightly modded stock version of ROM.

Not going to say what others say all the time, but I searched for it. (I Googled it.) If you want to easily root it and already have TWRP recovery, go to this post:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-tmobile/development/roms-10-29-2014-t2922618
If you want the ODIN version, go to this link:

The Gear watch battery drain problem likely isn't related to the phone update.
We've had the same problem with the Gear S3. After weeks of running fine, my S3 would do the same thing. We've been having to hard reset the watch to fix the problem.
anyone getting better or worse signal with the QE2? .... feedback?
I've looked everywhere in the threads and can't find an answer, hope you all can help.
N910T, Android 6.0.1, N910TUVS2EQE2. Everything I try and flash anything I get E: Footer Is Wrong and E: Signature verification failed. Tried Odin. Tried ADB. Tried to flash from ZIP. I unlocked the phone with the code from TMO but can't get past the loader to flash anything. Happy to provide futher details but any help would be very appreciated.

It was the USB cable. Tried different cable and port. Tada.

That did seem to help, and oddly enough one of the watch faces I'd bought that wouldn't install now installs and works fine.

Follow up. I'm able to flash TWRP. Made a backup but when I try to flash a new ROM I get error 6, error 7, or zip file errors in TWRP. When I try to flash ROM in Odin it crashes. Ideas? Is the build the issue?
