Hi all,
I have a T710 running 5.0.2 which I have rooted and installed TWRP and realize now that I won't receive the OTA update (if there ever is one) for my device.
My question is about the downloadable firmware on the Sammobile site. There is no 5.1.1 available for my country (UK) but there is a new one (Nov 1st) its country is "Unknown".
Would it be risky to flash this? And if not would it be easy enough to re-root and install TWRP?
I have made a backup in TWRP which I have on my SD card but I'm worried that if I attempt to flash this new firmware and something goes wrong then i might not be able to install the backup if TWRP is wiped.
Thanks in advance.
I've been using the Canadian 5.1.1 for a while on my T710 nordic. Runs great... No problems whatsoever ☺

Of course you can flash your backup, just reinstall twrp.
Ok , cheers guys
A little late to the party, but I flashed 5.1.1_T710XXU1BOH7_T710XAR1BOH7_XAR from the stock collection thread last night on my UK tab S2 T710 (like yours originally 5.0.2 rooted) and thus far it's running fine.

Hey guys,
Looking for a bit of help with unrooting my S4 Active and pretty much reverting it back to out of the box if it is possible.
I got my Active rooted about a year ago. I did it without much knowledge on how rooting and install custom firmware works, but amazingly I somehow got it done. But now I've have got to the point where I no longer need it rooted or running custom firmware and would like to return it to an out of the box state like when I first bought it.
Here is a bit of information about my device:
Model: GT-I9295
Version: 4.2.2
BB: XXAMF7
I'm not really sure on how I rooted it in the first place as it has been a while, but I do remember using ODIN and possible CWM, if that makes any difference. I'm looking to revert it back to 4.2.2 official so I can use the OTA update feature to keep my phone up to date and so on.
If anyone is able to help me, or point me in the direction of a good tutorial on unrooting and installing official firmware that would be great.
Thanks

Hi
One of the safiest way to unroot you device is to back up your phone then flash a stock firmware 4.2.2 or 4.4.2 available on sammobile.com and flash it with odin. You will automatically go back to stock firmware and it will be same as it was out of the box.

Thank you for the help.
I managed to find a stock 4.2.2 firmware on sammobile.com for my phone and country, but it seems like samsung haven't pushed out a 4.4.2 version for Australia yet.
There is a 4.4.2 version for New Zealand though, which is basically just next door to Australia. So I found that quite odd.
Do you know if there is anyway to flash an official 4.4.2 firmware to an Australian device?
Thanks again.

The country on the firmware doesn't mind because even you choose let say netherland versions it will work find as example for me I flashed singapire version on my s4 active while I'm in Mauritius and it work fine... you may choose any of it to install
Sent from my SM-T210 using xda premium
It doesn't matter which country firmware do you get. The country is there only for OTA updates. So if you flash a Netherlands stock ROM then you will get the next OTA update when Netherlands gets it. Otherwise other country.
Just flash the stock ROM with odin on your phone and it will be unrooted, removed the custom recovery and all back to stock.
Good day to you.
Flash N910T with F910F ROM
Hello guys, I need your help. I got as I thought SM-N910F brand new in Russia with 4.4 KK. It worked fine except for being weak to work with 3G. 4G was OK. Russian localization was OK. When I tried to update the ROM, I discovered this device is not 910F but unlocked 910t instead. While experimenting with flash, I damaged efs. Then I restored it with Kies flashing stock ROM. So now I'be got lollipop phone which says "insert T-mobile SIM".
SI my idea is to flash it with some European ROM which support Russian language. Possibly, some 910f mod? Can somebody suggest which ROM to flash? Unfortunately, I didn't backup original ROM.

You cannot flash a N910T phone with a N910F custom or stock twrp flashable zip file rom.
What you need to do now is to find, download and ODIN flash the official firmware which
came with your phone in order to get your phone working properly again.
Sorry about that,
Have a great day!

Thank you, Misterjunky. There is no such a thing as "official firmware" for my phone. Because it was brought to Russia and unlocked unofficially as I can see now. They even changed the phone label on the back side. So they flash some custom firmware, I think so but I have no idea which one.
To put it more clear, what i have now is exactly official firmware. I've got it with Samsung Kies Tools - Firmware upgrade and initialization which downloads the official firmware based on model name and serial number. But unfortunately this is not what I need because it doesn't accept my local SIM
BoBCaTROM by @turilo worked for my device:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...cial-bobcatromn910fton910tw8-v2-0nk5-t2992648
But the problem with 3G persists. Device works with 2G and 4G without problem, but doesn't work with 3G. Any ideas how to adapt modem from 910C to this model?
hello...
please give me some help..
I am beginner on android, flashing and so on...
I have an S4 active, with 4.4.2 with Baseband version "I9295XXUCNI1".
I want to install the 5.0.1 version, but on sammobile, the only version available for "I9295XXUCNI1" is 4.4.2.

Yes, you can install nearly any of the firmwares from the sammobile site. If you're asking which firmware would be the best to flash to your device, it depends where you are located. The NI1 firmware is available for several different countries, so I would flash the firmware for your region, it should be optimized to best work on your networks.
update: I installed the DOD3... it worked!!

When you flash the firmware through Odin it will completely wipe the device, it doesn't matter if you're rooted or not.
thank you
but what if the S4 is locked to orange carrier?
The firmware I have downloaded is carrier free...
is there any problem?
I am afraid of bricking the phone.... I understood the root will not be a problem, but I am afraid of the lock carrier.... the baseband is not the same as the one installed on the phone now
Hi guys, i have a problem.
I've tried to install xposed but i bricked my device, so i flashed the old firmware (only cust.img,boot.img,system.img and recovery.img) and now..the phone is working but the sim is not detected..any idea to solve this?
[UPDATE - I've stock rom and i'm on b133 firmware]
You need to go to stock firmware B052, stock recovery and wipe data after fully installation.
Then you need to do an OTA update to 170 and then and OTA update to 180.
After update to one of those OTA updates, your ril (sim) will work again without a problem.

Can you tell me in which way i have to go to stock firmware B052? By fastboot flash?
And can you provide me a link please? I don't now what version to download (i'm in italy and when i bought the phone it was with b133 installed, so the north europe version?)
Thank for your answer...

Here is the post, http://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/general/huawei-p8-lite-android-6-0-marshmallow-t3309796 download the B152 firmaware and flash it, you can follow the instructions provided by the OP. after that maybe you will recover yoir IMEI or you wont, in any case just update via OTA to 177 version and the IMEI will be restored, exactly the same thing happened to me and that was how I solved
regards
PD In the case you have the balong issue here is the fix for the B152
You can also download it from here:
http://hi6210sft.blogspot.be/2016/05/unbrick-huawei-p8-lite-via-fastboot.html#more
that happended to me when i downgraded but if you OTA update that should sort the problem out, thats what work for me anyway.
As asked in the title, can I update a rooted Huawei P9 with custom recovery to Nougat update?
And if not, what should I do in order to update? Remove root and custom recovery? Factory reset?
Thanks in advance
What the firmware version do you have ??
You can update the phone, but changind the firmware will mean that you'll lost the root.
You can update it, then you can root the phone again ....
EMUI 4.1.1
I also have TWRP custom recovery.. Would that make it riskier to update?
And how should I update? Wait for update to be available through phone or other methods? And what would be the other (easy) methods if I decide not to wait for it to be available through the settings on the phone?
If possible and not a bother, could you link another thread or a guide for this, please?
Thanks for all the help!
What build number do you have? It should be something like L09C432B383.
You can update to Nougat using TWRP but you will lose root and TWRP Recovery will go back to stock recovery. Just download the appropriate Nougat firmware that matches your Cust number (Eg, C900, C432 etc).
You can flash TWRP Recovery again and root your phone after the update.
Note: Nougat supersu.zip file is different from Marshmallows.
Build Number: L09C606B150
Ok, so should I do it directly through the phone? Or Pc?
I found an update to Nougat with the Build Number: C432B322. Should I use this one to update? And should I flash through TWRP? If yes, how should I do it?
Sorry for all the questions, I've never bricked a phone and not ready to do it now...

No you have to find a firmware that matches your cust (C606). If you flash this C432B322 you will brick your phone.

Thanks! I fortunately waited for the answer before updating hahaha
And I searched for an update with c606 and didn't find one.. how should I proceed with that?
If you really want to get to Nougat and not wait for build releases for your cust C606 then you will need to debrand your phone to C432 cust following this guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/how-to/guide-debranding-to-c432-updating-to-t3551523
And do keep in mind doing incremental updates instead of jumps ahead of a build is better to do to avoid compatibility issues from build to build.
