Fireflash 5.0? - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to update from kitkat to 5.0. What are the steps to it with fireflash instead of using a laptop without messing up my phone?

Stock Odin SM-N900A ??

Just wondering if anyone has found a stock Odin .tar.md5, for our AT&T SM-N900A.?
Also can anyone confirm any EFS backup solutions that work for our device?
Thanks.
There is no Odin image as the moment. If you mean something like a nandroid backup you can't do that yet.

Well, just it tight. Root has been achieved, thus an image will almost certainly be available soon. :highfive:
Has it actually been achieved or is it in progress?

I don't mean to be Debby Downer, but I have my doubts:

Seems like that's a tall order, being selinux was requested by NSA.
Root has been achieved and I have the Odin files.

If memory serves me right you had the Atrix 4G years ago. I'm glad to see you've got the Galaxy Note 3 as well.
The OneClickBin for DesignGears' root method is stock odin flash I believe. Just don't finish the rest of the root process.

How do I revert back to stock MI3 NO ROOT?

Anyone have the files?

If you have mj4 I don't believe a downgrade is possible
Though you can downgrade from mi5 no problem.
The stock mi3 file is still up at the Samsung update website. I don't remember the link at the moment.

Oh OK thanks bro... I tried to revert once before and it always fails in Odin... Just making sure it wasn't me doing something wrong and that it just wasn't possible

If you're on mj4, you cannot go back to any previous version.

Yup I knew that was previously the case, and was pretty sure there was no workaround.
I hate when they do cap like that to the bootloader.
I'm going to take that as confirmation, as I knew back when mj4 first came out and I was maintain a Knox safe root thread. There were a few issues of people tripping Knox Even on a complete stock uprooted phone attempting to downgrade to run the Vega files.
Just hadn't looked into it since then wasn't sure someone hadn't worked around it.
Though why you would want to go back to mi3 is another question.

Yup, there are a few stock mj4 options (with or without root)
Check the development section.
I personally usually use Odin to flash the full official Samsung mj4 tar.

Just to go Security>Permission control > disable root permission
If you are using any third party root permission managers like SuperSu
Just uninstalling them would work.

4.4 kitkat on AT&T Note 3?

Will this method work on my Note 3 with Safestrap?

I'm with NightHawk. I believe since CM uses it's own Kernel this will not work. We will get KK soon enough. People need to slow down and wait.

Wiped system and then Data

I deleted system and then wiped data so safetstrap is removed as well as not being able to boot up...Anyone have an idea on how to fix this? Btw I'm on Kit Kat so I cant just flash the firmware back on can I?

Just use the mj5 restore as long as your not on official kitkat. If your on official kitkat then bestbuy is your only option.

No problem. Don't know why I said anything about the official kitkat when you clearly stated that safe strap was gone. Lol

Man I freaked out back then lol

lol I was freaking out a little too! This is the first time I have used safestrap, all the other devices that I have owned previously have had twrp/cwm so I was kind of lost at what to do next.

Ok, every rom now runs on an unofficial 5.1.1 ?

All the roms are now based on a build that's not official at least in the T-Mobile website we still have 5.0.1 aka COD6. My question is if I update my device to the new Android version. Will T-Mobile not notice that ? Im going to jump to a new device soon. But will like to try out the new 5.1.1 see how smooth it is.

I've been with tmobile for about 8 years. My experience has been the people at the tmobile stores could care less if your phone has a custom ROM. Ive wiped my phone front of them the phone goes into a custom recovery. Either they are oblivious or don't care. As long as the phone turns on, the glass is not cracked and there is no sign of water damage, your safe
