The file is ready for Download and I added more description to the OP.
To answer the question it is a 100% ODIN Full Stock Firmware. You will need to root and install recovery if you want root access.
I haven't installed this yet so I'm unsure of what root method works. I will post more info and I get it. OZOP 5.1.1 will follow soon as well!!
Can you make it flashable via TWRP, please?
As far as I know we do not have a root method yet. Chainfire was waiting until the official release to update auto root. Hopefully soon...
I'm at work and i'm trying to update this as painlessly and quickly as possibly. Can i simply use odin to flash this over my rooted s6? I'm not using a custom rom, just rooted with pingpongroot. I dont really care that i cant root again right away i just want to make sure i wont brick my phone by flashing this over stock rooted.
No root, and make sure people know they CANNOT downgrade to 5.0.2 after using this method.

The autoroot zip is from three months ago. I'm pretty sure that blog post contains a link to the original S6 root. I would advise against attempting to use it. There's a high possibility it'll result in a bootloop, or possibly a bricked phone.

Sorry for asking again but no one has directly answered me. is it safe to flash this over a rooted stock s6?

Hi all,
This is an app (that would make your life easier) by which you can flash the NCE stock KK kernel(while on lollipop OC4) that is Safestrap friendly. Then you can enter to SS recovery and flash whatever you need onto your LP ROM. As we all know that SS won't work after flashing a lollipop ROM using muniz_ri method, unless you Odin a KK kernel. All you have to do is:
1. If you are not already on LP then update to it using muniz_ri method. After Muniz_ri method you won't have busybox, so download this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox&hl=en from the playstore, open it up and install busybox from within the app (note: this is the only busybox app that has actually worked for me).
2. Install SS, open it up ( it will say recovery "not installed"), install recovery and it will say "installed", then exit out of it.
3. Download the NCE_Flasher.apk then install it, and open it up then hit " flash", wait for it to finish then hit "tap to reboot" and it will take you directly to SS recovery. Then you can flash whatever MODs or addons you wish or even ANOTHER ROM, just make sure you wipe everything but the external SD card if you are flashing a new ROM and you should be good.
4. MAKE SURE TO FLASH THE G900A_OC4_Stock_KERNEL_Recovery-Flashable before you reboot in order for your phone to boot up.
That is what I did and it worked perfectly for me and now I am running TMS5 with no issues at all.
FOLLOW THE ABOVE STEPS AND YOU WILL BE FINE.
-I did NOT make this app and I take absolutely no credit for it. All thanks go to @benwaffle the original creator of this app for our AT&T Note 3 and @carl1961 for remaking it for the S4 & S5.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
-Please note that the purpose of this thread is only to help users. No donations needed. A "thank you" is more than enough
Hope this will help.
WARNING: it may or may not work for some of you. It DID work for me and others with no problem on the S4 side and it is a very similar process, so use it at your own risk.
- Do NOT try this app on the S5 active. They have different kernels (I think) and it won't work for you.
If you run into an issue with the G900A_OC4_Stock_KERNEL_Recovery-Flashable zip, like it didn't work for you or didn't actually flash just boot into download mode after done flashing your files in SS and odin thisOC4 tar file in Odin in order for your phone to boot up into your rom.

The download filename is G900AUCU3BOC4_OneClick.zip.
Could you expand your OP page to explain what the file is?
Is it an ODIN flash? Is it an executable like the filename suggests?
Good stuff, it will probably prove useful in the future, but 1.5G download without a description, makes me curious.
OC4 Flashing
Has anyone found luck with flashing G900AUCU3BOC4 with the file in OP? (I downloaded the file and I have the executable open right now but I don't want to take any risks flashing this firmware).
More info please

Confirmed Working
Thank you very much for posting this. I had soft-bricked my brand new GS5 not 2 days into owning it trying to downgrade/root without reading anything in the forums. i ended up having to get a replacement but it has not arrived yet and i still have the one that used to be bricked until i downloaded the file, put the phone into ODIN Mode and ran the application. I'm a little mad at myself for not finding this sooner but happy that this exists just in case anything happens like i previously stated.
Thanks this fixed my bricked S5 that I botched the lollipop update on! This should probably be uploaded to a mirror and added to a couple help threads. Sweet man thanks!
Works
Created an account just to post that this file worked. I soft bricked my phone and tried a few roms without luck before finding this one. Threw my phone into Recovery Mode and ran the application and now my phone is up and running again on 5.0. Awesome!
Is this the stock OC4 OTA update to 5.0? If so, users that use this file wont be able to downgrade back to 4.4.2 as said here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3076803

I've also softbricked my phone trying to downgrade to kitkat from lollipop. I tried to use Kies and Smart Switch but no luck. I tried talking to Samsung and they said "You have to send it in". Crazy that software can get so screwed up with no recovery.
My phone's not under warranty so I'm trying to do it myself. Serves me right for not rooting it when I was on kitkat and then getting the OTA of Lollipop.
If anyone can even steer me towards a forum that I can get some suggestions to recover this mess, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

have u heard anything on a custom recovery?
I am so new to this, and in the process of moving some of my pictures to my pc, my folder "Camera" just disappeared. I was dragging specific files over and poof it was gone. I have now spent hours trying to find a program to "undelete" or recover these pics, (((btw iRoot installed onto my PC and them plugged my phone in put SEVERAL apps on my phone without asking permission))) I am now in the process of trying FonePaw Android Data Recovery, but I need to get it rooted. I have version 5.1.1, and I have not had success rooting it. Does this post say that I cannot root it? WAAAAHHHH!!!
Can someone reup the links? They're down. I'd like to root my S6 Active, but can't find the files anywhere but here.

dropfile(dot)to/bGUAOGr
File expired
Here is the copy
https://yadi.sk/d/X_hrqvTItZCHP
The most important file is g809ahybridrecovery.tar . I wonder if it's possible to unlock bootloader with it and leave it unlocked... Don't have the phone myself yet.
Did somebody actually try it? Included instruction is a bit unclear about the mechanism itself -
1. Boot hybrid recovery
2. ADB push install-su archive and run it
3. After all - flush included stock firmware - seriously?
Need help
So I followed the included instructions, but Odin got stuck for several hours. Does anyone know how long it's supposed to take to flash the files?
Anyway, I'm not sure what to do with the G890A.zip after I've followed the rest of the instructions either, nor do I know what
3.Connect to PC and open the FIX_ROOT and run it.
4.Verify root, and do any unlock, IMEI CERT READ/WRITE
means.
Sorry for being such a N00B, but if someone could straighten me out on how to do this, I'd appreciate it.

I built this ROM as a test for those who have locked bootloaders on the Tab S and can't get root.
In my experience Samsung bootloader locked devices will not allow a custom kernel or recovery to be installed. However it is possible that the bootloader will allow a modified rom to be installed.
The rom is bone stock Lollipop 5.0.2 except it is pre-rooted with SuperSU 2.49. It needs to be installed via ODIN. If ODIN allows it to flash then its highly likely it will boot just fine.
If there are any issues that arise then all that is required is to flash the stock firmware, available here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-T707V/
T707VVRS1BOK1_preroot_system.img.tar
If anyone gives this a shot, please report with details.

If it works for the T707v then I'll do the same for the other Bootloader locked devices. It all depends on whether ODIN will flash it or not.
The reason I have used the T707v is because this device at least has the stock firmware available, so it should be relatively safe to try this.
Not many wanting a rooted t707v then.

It seems the US LTE variants were not very popular, T807T does not have a lot of use either.

Seems so, would have done it for the att and other Verizon model if it worked. Wouldn't want to test it out on an att model first with no stock firmware available.
@deadman96385
Anyway I could do to pick your brains about something.
Am I right in thinking you have a Tab A?

I do have one, what's up?
I don't believe Odin allows modified system images to flash on bootloader-locked devices.
I tried on my Verizon S5, it shouldn't work, but let's see anyways
I have one and I'll try it but I'm out of town for work right now won't be home to try it until the 24th. Would be awesome if it works.

It does, it depends on the device's bootloader.
Plenty have been rooted or modified this way.

Exactly why I said let's see anyways
It's just that the S5 and Tab S are so similar in so many ways and were release at the same time on VZW, that I thought they'd have the same locks.

What do you mean you ran it and did nothing at all? It doesn't unlock the bootloader.
Its the stock OS already rooted.
Did it install successfully with ODIN?
What is the state of root when checked with Root validator?
We need screenshots if possible please.

I have the 807V and am watching this thread very closely. Too bad that other guy didn't provide any info.

Exactly, if he'd have only took the time to at least let us know if it installed OK with odin. It seems like it did which means that he should also have had root.
Not sure what he was expecting to see?
I will fork it out, wish I did some research before buying an Att phone, even when it was listed unlocked. I have rooted every galaxy s 1,2,3,4 before this one, but this one Is a muther. I don't have time to painfully go through the research of bypassing this new baderass knox.

Try downgrading to Android 4.4.4 KitKat and then towelrooting it (towelroot .com/tr.apk)

How will it brick the device? I mean unless they're running Android 5 or 6 it should work fine, shouldn't it?

Ohhhh I didn't look at the baseband version.. Yeah it will brick your device. At this point you should take what I say with a grain of salt when I say you can't root lollipop and you should have better luck sticking to lollipop and waiting for someone to find a vulnerability in marshmallow.
Looks like that rooting is gonna have to wait a bit longer
Speaking of... Long shot here, but has anyone started looking for a vulnerability to exploit?

The OP requested instructions without preexisting root access. He has to downgrade to KitKat before rooting, and then he can do whatever.

Doesn't apply to this situation.
From first link:
"(Caution! Do not flash if you have taken the OC4, OF2, or OF3 ota updates) and root with TowelRoot, before continuing with the above process."
TowelRoot doesn't work here.
Second link:
"Make sure your AT&T Galaxy S5 is 100% stock Android 4.4.4 KitKat firmware."
So no.
