Hello, I am in desperate need of the stock update. zip
Someone post it here please
no such thing as a stock update.zip
stock rom? they are already posted in the Dev section.
and they arent called update.zip.
SEARCH read. learn. BEFORE YOU FLASH
and the title of this thread SUCKS
Yea stupid swipe messed up the title, and what I meant is the update. zip that comes on the sdcard with kb1
there isnt one...
update.zips are meant to update something as far as stock goes (samsung)
WE use many update.zips to do lots of stuff. root, add CWM without flashing kernel, or to flash rom/kernel packages skipping a temp CWM.
what update.zip are you looking for?
I like to think I've got a pretty good grasp of how things work, even if I don't know the specifics. I'm hoping someone can give me an answer on this one - I'm sure it's straightforward once you know!
With my previous phone, an HTC Desire, when I wanted to flash CM, all I had to do was unlock the bootloader (S-OFF), root and flash the .zip file. However, with this phone it seems that it's not so simple - looking at the dev threads for CM-based ROMs they pretty much all require the boot.img to be extracted and flashed via ADB, and then the rest of the ROM flashed from the .zip file.
And, probably related - why are all the stock-based ROMs packaged as .ftf files needing the use of Flashtool? What's the reason they can't be packaged as a .zip and flashed through recovery?
What's different between the phones? I'm not trolling, I'm keen to learn
I'm no expert, but I think the ftf package contains additional informations such as phone model number, branding, etc which is not possible to include in zip archives.
The only difference is that this phone doesn't have a dedicated partition for the recovery. That's why all recoveries are included in kernels(ramdisk).

I have a Canadian N4(910W8)and I want to change the baseband so I can try different Roms. How do I go about this? I'm guessing through Odin right? Where can I find a stock NJ7 ROM to do this? Thanks guys!

Firstly, if you change baseband your phone will not work with Canadian or
USA roms.
None of the twrp flashable zip file roms contains the baseband or bootloaders.
You need to keep the Canadian baseband which you already have.
What you will need to do is to save your kernel file so you can use it with the
USA zip file roms.
The kernel is located in the /System/ folder and the filename is "boot.img".
Copy that file to your internal sdcard before you do anything else.
Then after you download a usa zip file rom open it up with winrar/winzip
or other archiver and remove the boot.img in the zip file and replace it with
the boot.img you have saved in your internal sdcard before flashing.
Once you do that you can safely flash the usa zip file rom of your choice.
I never advise anyone to use a different carriers rom, there are many con's
against doing so and not many pro's. But go ahead and give it a try.
Good luck!
Thanks for the helpful info! On my note3, I always flashed tmob roms with no issues, but the note 4 is new so I didn't know exactly what would work or not. Might give this a go later on! Thanks again!
I find sys>kernel>boot_adsp> the file called "boot" which is only 4kb in size. Is that what I'm looking for? Does not have "IMG" behind the "boot"
Hi.... I was wondering the same about the NJ7.... I've flashed 2 TMobile roms so far... Darthstocker & Hyperdrive.... As long as you flash the Starkissed Kernel it boots up fine... Without it you just Bootloop....

You have the latest, to go the .tot route you need to let the phone take the OTA's to get current after you flash it.
As for knock on, did you do the fix in the hidden menu?

This is the latest 26A .tot. Extract it from the zip. I downloaded it a couple of weeks ago, but I haven't tried it out myself...I prefer the .kdz method.

I know we have the thread for stock images capable for flashing in TWRP for versions up to 5.1.1. Tried searching for 6.0 flashable zips but could only find it for the Nexus 5.
Anyone know if 6.0 is out as a flashable zip yet? Wanna point me in the right direction?
Yes there is a u touched 6.0 in the development section
