SM-N920W8 ROOT not in the list - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, first time poster here, I was on this thread
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/development/dev-pre-root-firmware-twrp-testing-t3183877
and it said on it that the model SM-N920W8 was supported for the spaceX kernel.
Once I clicked on this link
Code:
http://samfirm.net/post/129813196562/spacex-kernel-note5-s6e-plus
I dont see the SM-N920W8 model in the list of Supported devices status, unless he forgot to put it I don't see it and I doubt its the SM-N9208 cuz this one is a dual I think.
So did someone actually use it for SM-N920W8 and it worked with no issues? Mine is the rogers version in Canada.
thnx

Hi and welcome,
If you follow the download link for "all N920", pretty sure that's the file you need:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=39339
SpaceX-Kernel-v0.1_N920W8(official).tar.md5 ; should be flashed with Odin.
Also, remember that this root method will trip the Knox flag permanently (Void warranty).
EDIT: I actually did not tested it. Someone else could confirm, although I feel quite confident.

While I can verify the above kernel works on my W8 (Rogers), I cannot seem to shake the issue of random reboots.. At least once a day the phone will reboot on its own, and almost every phone call, the phone will reboot a couple of minutes in.
I love having a rooted device but the compromise of stability is making me consider going back to factory stock... Using the 0.1, 0.2, and noble kernels have all yielded the same symptoms. Anyone have a suggestion?

Well thnx for the heads-up... I thought that the spaceX was supposed to fix the random reboots..guess not. I will be waiting then for a stable Kernel.

@Manh_IT did release a fix for Canadian Samsung Galaxy Note 5 SM- N920W8 I just rooted and even installed CWM not one issue here
The random reboot fix is an image file 920T/W8 released October 09, 2015
Dl boot.img and flash it via CWM or TWRP

Hello where did you get the kernel to root the note 5 canadian version or how do you do it thank you

I've been told my SkyHigh SM-N920T kernel works with SM-N920W8. You can find it on the T-Mobile Note 5 original android development forum.

Please give us a link of those files!
Hi there, since you have no random reboot issue at all can you please give us the link of the files. And, that would be great if you could guide us the step by step procedure. Thanks in advance

Seriously? I learned reading and not asking step by step instructions. Come on man. Do some research.

Alright no instructions needed. Like others I have tried all the kernels for note 5 and found random reboot issues. You are saying you have no issue with that whatsoever. That's why can you please give me the link of those files?

I don't know what version you have, I got the N920W8... Here is what I did, hope that helps.
*NOTE* N920TW8 is the N920W8 version combined with N920T version. They are basically identical. Just in case you were wondering where the N920W8 is since you will only find N920TW8 in the list, go here

grab that file above and flash it with philZ recovery (that's what I did)
you can grab philZ from the same link of the kernel, either the MD5 if you are using odin or the zip if you will flash.
and that's it! I had no issues on my phone at all, I installed WANAM's xposed and all is good.

Thanks for your help
I'll definitely do this. I use N920W8 with telus.

Thanks so much
Hey mate, it worked. Thanks so much

Since the Kernel is a zip file, you can't install it with Odin. You have to use twrp.

How to root galaxy note GT-N7000B

Hi everyboby. I am in thailand and I have the Galaxy note GT-N7000B (N7000BDCLA2). I use a lot of time to find out the method to root my Note and I fail.
If somebody know please suggest or find out method to root them.
Thank you.
Find dr ketan's post at android development section.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA App
Ooh found someone with same phone as me. hehe Have you found out what the B means? cos I can't.
Haven't found the firmware to download anywhere. its like a ghost phone.
did you get root yet?

just got my SGN as few days back from Singapore and its the GT-N7000B and it looks like we have the same one.
still wondering what the difference is...
I think there's a leak on the ics update for sgn7000 in rootzwiki. You.have to flash your device using odin. Im not sure if i can put the link here.

Ey joshua.. Have you rooted your g-note? From cebu here too..
I think the leak ICS on rootzwiki is not the Official ICS yet... I would rather wait for the Official ICS one than the many variant leak ICS already released....
nothing is really sweeter (for me) than the Official one...
Just my personal thought...

That's a SGH-I717 (AT&T Note) leak, a device completely different from International Note, and therefore useless for us.

bai, are you going to just root your phone? or root then flash a custom ROM also?
anyway.. if your planning with that ICS leak from rootzwiki.. I would advice you not to... I agree, that ICS isn't for the International Version, it's for the I717 Note...

I have same SGN, GT-N7000B(N7000BDCLA2). Unfortunately, nobody post the instruction for this model.
And also, Super One click and the other programs are useless for this model.
So, I decide to root my phone accroding to Dr. Ketan.
I thought this phone is non directable ROM.
Check this as the below.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When No Any other method works to Root your device, use this
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note that, this will downgrade your ROM to KJ1, after that you can update it.
Download: https://rapidshare.com/files/3690281..._FACTORYFS.zip
(special thanx to schiwa for providing premium a/c to host file)
- Make sure your SGN is NOT connected to your computer
- Reboot your SGN into "download mode" (Vol Down + Home + Power)
- Start ODIN
- Click the PDA button, and select the "SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.tar" file
- Connect the SGN to your computer
- Make sure "repartition" is NOT checked
- Click the START button
- Wait for the phone to reboot TWICE
- Done.
Now you have your device Rooted, Install Mobile Odin Pro n update your device to any new ROM with Mobile Odin

When I was done this instruction there are two bugs.
one is typing error "null, null" and the other is brick whenever turn off the display.
But I flashed Chrack's ICS XXLPY V4 directly.
Check this as the below.

Instruction
a) coming from a rooted GB-ROM:
- download Abyss Kernel 4.2 from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?c65mndvpk6ocbaa
- put zip-file on your USB-storage
- boot in Recovery
- Flash Abyss Kernel 4.2!!!
- boot back in recovery (you find this option under 'advanced')
- FullWipe
- Flash ROM
- reboot system
- ...you are done
==> there have been reported problems with a constantly rebooting system when doing installation coming from a GB-ROM as posted above! So the safe and 100% successful way is installing LPY Stock-ROM, root Stock ROM and then go on as described below under point b2). Do not ask for a tutorial on how to install and root LPY Stock ROM....it is describe enough here in Forum!

Now I am using my phone after installation of ICS.
There will be some bugs during installation.
But you can do it because I already succeed to root and flash ICS.

I agree with you for Ghost Phone.
When I checked this model, I though it's kinds of fake SGN from China.
Finally, I succeed to root and flash ICS Custom ROM in my phone.
It's worth to give a try but there are some bugs during installation.
Good Luck!!

Thank you very much for this root file. Using Odin 3.09, applying PDA on my SM N910F (international Snapdragon), it's fully working. I was hopeless to see my Note 4 as snappy as kitkat since I'm under 5.0/5.1 (and I tried many many ROM, stock or customs, AOSP or not).
TY again!

NCE flasher. No need for Odin to get into Safestrap.

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.

Yes I think so. Using Odin to flash the files and such?
You have to use an older version of busy box to get it to install . I am about to try this with twisted v4 I post the results as soon as I finish.

SM-N9200 HK version root?

Hey guys, do any of you know if we have root already for this version for Note5?
I found this the other day:
http://apk.tw/thread-706898-1-1.html
But... I don't speak Chinese and I don't know that website so I'm not risking it. Would love to get a root on my HK SM-N9200 as well.

But... I don't speak Chinese and I don't know that website so I'm not risking it. Would love to get a root on my HK SM-N9200 as well.

Thanks bro. I don't think I will risk it either. There are also no comments there that confirm that it works...
At the moment I don't have a real reason to root, but i'm sure I'll need it in the future. Hopefully we will have it soon.
Good luck!

Since you have the N9200 as well, could you do me a massive favor? I'm really dissatisfied with the scrolling behavior on mine. I've made a thread about it in the General section.
Could you let me know what software version you are on? Have updated to the latest one (N9200ZHU1AOI1)? But most importantly: do you notice stuttering behaviour in scrolling through apps like Google Play store, Youtube, Facebook etc...?
You can capture the behavior by following the steps described in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/general/note-5-scrolling-behaviour-t3195672.
Thanks in advance!

No problem, I'll try to get to it as soon as I get home, Going to Uni now.
Though I must say that I dont really use those apps because I live In china. If I use them I have to open Astrill VPN. I just Tried it with facebook, and it seems pretty smooth, except when it loads new content because of Chinas great firewall.
(Im also on the new version, but today I tried the "Package debloat" app from the Q&A section and disabled 150 or so apps)
So does anyone found any clue for N9200 root (OI1 firm) ???
Still no :\
@Seven Winds @tisfo @Willyman just got my device, im on it.
got twrp so far..
roots next..
then arter's kernel with dual sim intact..
Edit:
current progress and planned
unlock bootloader
install twrp
backup everything
reboot
notice GAPPS get removed when you unlock
verify my knox container still works (says KNOX has been locked contact your IT admin need to change lock type)
flash stock n9200 kernel with ',verify' removed (aka allows system to be mounted and modified, without this change a kernel cant boot a rooted system)
reboot and verify knox container still works (same message)
flash gapps reboot and verify
flashing back gapps didnt restore everything i was missing (looked like every app i downloaded from play store was also removed), so i reflashed the stock system i pulled out of odin tarball
restoring data
Damn im glad I backedup everything as soon as I got recovery, first boot after unlocked BTloader, it was next reboot that it deleted all my data ( so after reinstalling stock system and restoring my data, everything is back to how it was)
*** im here ***
twrp su root
reboot and verify knox container still works
flash arter kernel that I merged n9200 sources for dual sim support
reboot and test
(ii know knox wont work with any other customer kernel (i really want knox workspace with custom roms and plan on making it work)
Thank you gundal for your hard work!
I am using n9200 HK version. And I rooted my note 5 already!
Thanks for my friend in China, he helped me a lot and everything works fine.
I also installed xposed framework in my note 5.
Can you please share links to the files you've used? I tried to install twrp via Odin and I'm getting error RQT_Close and the phone writes something in chinese in the download mode.
Any customer ROM for dual sim yet?

I always use Samsung stock rom only and the root file worked for my note 5.
Have you ever unlocked CRom of your note 5 before?
No I didn't. How do I do that?

You now can see a lot of replies of that website, and these replies were all from the same person, that was me.
I also got his contact by other chat app. And now I have a perfect root file for n9200 now!
Do you want to try it?

Never mind. So do you want to try root your note 5 n9200?
if so, I would give you my root file and the CROM unlocker apk for you.
No Deep sleep problem and USB debugging problem already!

I am new in xda forum. Should I open a new thread and post the n9200 root guide?
Or just do it right here inside this thread?
Sorry for my poor English because I come from Hong Kong.

I just post one thread on it.

[Kernel/Root] Root for the SM-G530P 5.1.1 [AOI1]

Root method for AOI1 / 5.1.1 for the SM-G530P THIS WILL TRIP KNOX. If you don't want to trip knox don't use this. If you do use it and whine you tripped knox because you didn't read ,we will all point and laugh at you.
Named it TrapKernel because well its not my normal HispAsian Kernel and I listened to a crap ton of Trap Music while doing it.
Thanks to @g.lewarne and his root method with his Unibase and Unikernel for the s6 , we finally have root after I ported it over to us. So be sure to thank him for his work.
What's included:
Auto installation of root and busy box
Kernel set to permissive
Otherwise stock
So here's the deal. Stupid simple. Make sure OEM unlock is checked in dev options if you have it.
1. Put Phone in Download mode
2. Open Odin
3. Connect Phone
4. Put Kernel in AP Slot
5.Flash it
6. Reboot and profit
Notes:
Download SuperSu from the Playstore. Its not included.
Change ro.securestorage=true to false in build.prop to make phone stop forgetting wifi passwords.
Delete the /system/app/SecurityLogAgent folder ot get rid of ratarded system modified warning
Download
Do NOT mirror this link. Period.
TrapKernel AOI1
Thanks to @Newyork! for testing it
​
Source code for permissive for anyone who wants it. Fork, build it, mod it, whatever
https://github.com/ShinySide/G530P_Permissive
I am the first one to be rooted with this above method!
I can confirm that everything works great!!
Thank you @ShinySide :good::good:
I second that!! Working 100%!! Thanks once again!!
Can you please tell me witch other G530 the G530P is most like and the differences. I have a G530P and have been learning on it but don't feel like i want to brick it. Im looking for a CWM version however i seem to be one of the 8 people on earth listing that exact model # G530P ?
Thanks in advance.

Make that 9. I have it rooted but need a cwm or other recovery too.
Friendly warning for people who are rooting the G530P after March 26th, there is a new software version rolling out labelled as APC4. It's still 5.1.1 but there could be compat. issues if updated to APC4. Unknown yet. Try at your own risk.
Thanks again to OP for making this phone rootable lol

My friend tried it just now and she said it did root the device. So no compat issues. People can enjoy the APC4 bugfixes with the AOF8 / AOI1 root kernel.
Not booting
OK, I have a SM-G530P with 5.1.1 AOl1, after flashing this with Odin and it doesn't get past the SprintSpark boot screen.
Clarification needed
Is this 'Permanent Root'? I rooted my G530P using the CF method and when using EFS Pro, it told me that the device didn't have permanent root. Can anyone tell me if CF is permanent or Temporary?
Excuse me for being a a beginner at this but, would I be able to remove the kernel and go back to the original and if so what is the process?

Probably but over a year old so your kernel will be old as hell lol
Root via twrp and supersu.

I dont think you can do the twrp method with the sm-g530p, on the twrp site they dont have one compatible
Do you think you can update the kernal?
Heres the current version of the g530p
J5 Slim for 530w,p,t,t1 go here
I did the steps and my wifi doesn't want to turn on.
