Hey Guys tried to reroot via the De La Vega method after my phone updated itself. Tried to do so through ODIN didnt get anywhere. During the NAND write process it would come close to finishing then fail. Says AUTH error and phone says Secure Check Fail: System. Any fixes available yet? (did a thorough search and didnt find anything) thanks in advance. Oh yea Knox is @ 0x0 for kernel lock and warranty void.
What Firmware did your phone update to? If it updated to MJ5, Root De La Vega will not work. You will have to find another method.
If yours says MJ5 RDLV= No Dice

Yea it was to mj5, i ended up pulling a mj5 pit file from a dump and flashed it through ODIN to unbrick it. However im getting the direct pen input has stopped working error every time i try to go to a different screen.
Anyone reading this i found a way to unbrick and root again. My notes running good as new. Had to use ODIN and Heimdall. http://www.usofttech.com/t133026.html

Hi,
This is really a nice way to unbrick and root again, thanks
what version of odin are you using ? odin 3.09 is what is used for 4.3 and click ap for the file you want to install this should sort this issue for you

Mine is currently soft-bricked due to the same reason - but the link you provided isn't working (at least not for me). Anything I can use to search or find it otherwise? Thanks!
Before anyone flames me, I've searched & read till my eyes are crossed. I'm on rooted 4.2.2 mf3 with no safestrap. Can someone tell me if I can Odin 4.4.2 NE3 directly, or do I have to go to 4.3 first? Thanks.

i have the same problem...
the stuff and softwares on the phone they will be erased???
Yes. Anytime you download a new ROM thru odin it is essentially a new phone. Doing a ota saves most of the data. That's why the need to backup all apps & personal data.

I tried to download Odin 3.09 from different sources, but Norton blocks it from installing. Says its a Trojan virus. Anyone else have this problem, & is it a false positive??

Yes, it is a false positive. Deactivate Norton during install and flash images trough Odin.

Hey All!
I did not see any threads with these downloads/instructions so I figured I would start one up now with root around the corner!
This thread will be the go to thread for anything related to the Galaxy S6 Edge (VZW.) It will include stock ODIN tar files, debloat tools, firmware files and links to other tools that work with our device such as Flashfire or Multisystem once they are out. I will also be creating and developing my own ROM which will also be linked here (will also have it's own thread in the Android Development thread.)
Included in this first post will be instructions for various processes as well as any tools that are required for most functions such as ODIN, device drivers etc.
PS: I am currently downloading the stock tar file for OC3 for the Verizon S6 Edge and I will then upload it to AFH for others to have access to. I will also be creating a ROM from the TAR file so hopefully as soon as root is available and multisystem/flashfire I will post the process and we will have a ROM ready to roll!
Tools/Necessities:
1) Samsung Smart Switch (replaces KIES, use this to backup+restore data etc.)
2) Samsung Mobile Drivers
3) ODIN
ODIN Flashing Instructions:
1) Ensure drivers are installed and ODIN is installed
2) Download the .tar files you wish to use to the PC (If they are in .zip format, just unzip them to get to the .tar or .tar.md5 file/s inside.)
3) Backup all data using the PC if you need to (if flashing a full ODIN tar, it typically wipes the entire system on the device. If just flashing firmware only it typically does not wipe system but a backup is always recommended.)
4) From powered off device, hold the Home + Volume Down + Power button until the "Download Mode" screen appears
5) Once the screen is on, press Volume Up to enter Download Mode
6) Open ODIN on the PC and Press the AP slot and navigate to and select the .tar file you are going to be flashing
7) Connect the device after ODIN checks the .tar file and once the device is recognized press Start in ODIN. (DO NOT UNPLUG DEVICE DURING THE ODIN FLASH.)
Download links will be in Post 2!

Trying to reinstall firmware through Smart Switch.... messed up my system permissions by accident and now it is not booting past splash screen. I can handle it with ODIN, but in the meantime while downloading the .TAR I was messing around in Smart Switch and it gives an "Unsupported Device" message when i connect my Verizon S6 Edge.
Both Kies3 and the SmartSwitch.exe included in this post give same "Unsupported Device."
Anyone have any suggestions as to what PC client I am suppose to be using? Really just asking out of curiousity at this point.....ODIN files are almost done downloading.

its probably not recognizing it because partition/system is messed up..
i have the vzw s6 edge pit file if you need it but it is also in the full odin tar.. i recommend once you have everything up and running you use smartswitch to backup your phone.. it backed up everything imcluding my text messages for me so when i used it to retrieve the stock tar it restored everything right back!

Trying to Odin back to factory. I've got a 128GB edge. When I start the flash it hangs on "Partition". Do I need to check the "re-partition" button in Odin. If so, do the PIT files change between the different sizes of the phones?

I tried both odin 9 and 10 (same result). finally clicked the "re-partition" button in 10 and the reload took fine. i just checked the phone and it shows 128gb. currently going thru a restore, will post more info as i find it.

yes actually lol. few times trying to get my rom to flassh with flashfire.. apparently flashfire wont flash full rom.zips without a custom recovery (at least i cant figure it out.) other simple zips work however..
but i did use it at least 3 times lol. first time had a bit of trouble but if i select anything but auto reboot it would fail so only selecting auto reboot in odin it flashes for me each time

also to add, the tar file is the exact same tar that smart switch downloaded and is literally untouched.. it was already in the exact format and name and everything and i simply uploaded it without doing anything to it

The supplied tar file worked for me yesterday when I inadvertently removed a system file I shouldn't have after rooting.. Got me back to stock, re-rooted and I was good to go..
Used the Odin and tar files attached here without any problems.
Any way to quickly unRoot without ODIN flash stock TAR?
Anyone know how to just restore the system.img? As opposed to a full system wipe that is contained in this tar file? Folks have posted both "wipe" and "no wipe" versions from previous Galaxy SX versions.
thanks.

to my knowledge i do not think its possible to edit the tar file since we have a locked BL we xan only flash md5 verified tars...
the ones in past could have been an update.tar.. for example when we get a update can use smartswitch to download the update.tar which wont wipe because its an upgrade vs. a full odin recovery tar

You guys notice how many freakin Knox apks are in here? Both in system and priv-apps ... pretty crazy stuff. I've got a few small utilities in the works that I should have finished by the weekend (UI tweaks, etc) .. but I'll leave the ROM building to those more capable.
Still can't believe how quickly we got root... those poor souls with Note 4s have been waiting forever.

Quick question.
Maybe I'm missing something, but I see two versions floating around. In the ping pong thread, and on my device, I see G925VVRU1AOC3, and here I see G925VVZW1AOC3. Can you clarify this for me? Thanks.

Hello,
I bought a used SM-N900A and I used ODIN to NL2 as when I got the unit I was having problems upgrading and getting it to run correctly.
Today I hit "check updates" and it says I'm on the latest version 4.4.4 NL2 build Aug 6th. Is this correct? Can I get to OC2 Lollipop? I don't want to go to NC1 and downgrade and start all over as it's a work phone.

my friend has this phone, and he is having lots of issues, im thinking something is corrupt. i have been looking through the different threads trying to figure out the best route as i dont own this phone. i remember in the fascinate GS1 days, i would just download a tar and flash in odin with a repartition file to start fresh again. im getting lost in these forums looking for the files i should get, and the procedure i should follow.
would someone mind leading me to the proper procedure and files to the most relevant stock rom please.
Before trying to reflash stock, confirm the bootloader on the phone to ensure that you flash the same or newer ROM.
Could you list the firmware in order from oldest to newest for me please? I'm having trouble finding a list... Man it sucks trying to catch up on a phone from so far behind.

do i need to include the pit? i thought i read somewhere not to include pit on the 32gb model. that may have been in the international forums though.
A pit file is only needed if Odin can't read the partition information.
There is only one version of the att note 3.
Thank you very much. Everything went smooth. I did the 4 file flash method as what I read seemed to point to that being the best method. The phone works great again.
