ODIN image is posted. Enjoy!
Flashed and booted without a hitch! Thanks
Not a problem. Enjoy!
Update:
I extracted the file from the 4.2.2 stock system dump and replaced it.
it has a different sha1sum than what was on the device but still i get the same error when sideload the 4.4.3 zip
got error "status 7" when sideload : "/system/bin/debuggerd" has unexpected contents."
can anyone extract the stock debuggerd file so i can replace at (/system/bin) ?
Why are you making your life more difficult than you need? Just flash this odin package and be done with it.

Hi there. I have I S4 9505g. I'm not rooted and fully stock. Can I use Odin with this system image to get root. I have experience with rooting and flashing just new to this device. I'm assuming that I have to go through and root first then put twrp on. Thanks

Yes you may. You'll need to install SuperSU from the app store before or after flashing this, but, the su binary is up to date (1.99r3) and ready to go.
Also you could just flash twrp with ODIN before rooting. Either way, this will fix you up.

Thanks man. Yea, this one took a couple hours longer to post than I'd have liked because of changes they made to the scripts. I had to re-architect my build odin script to reconcile the changes. But the modems, recovery, and full images are all posted. Not too shabby considering it was literally one day after the Nexus devices got their factory images.
My phone is rooted, and I installed Xposed framework. How do I install 4.4.3 without losing everything?
With Odin you lose everything right?
You won't lose your data. But it will overwrite your system partition, yes. You don't have a lot of options if you wanna get to 4.4.3 with the current environment you have on your phone. ODIN is pretty much it.

It is better to do a wipe data, to do a clean install? I'm afraid that Xposed and its modules can cause problems.
Don't know. I don't use xposed at all. Personally if it were me I'd flash it, see if it boots...if not, factory reset it and start over. But I'd at least try to boot it up without wiping data first. I go out of my way in all my utils to make it so users don't have to wipe data so you never know....it could work.
I've updated all my ODIN TAR threads to make it COMPLETELY clear what EVERY step is as it seems it was too difficult to follow.
Thanks. With MJ gone, you are the last Samurai for all i9505g users. We all depend on you now.:good:
Anyway to disable the System Update notification nag? I was using 4.4.2 Automanager, unchecked SystemUpdate but still no luck...
Should be able to freeze the updater apk whatever the file is. I don't know it off the top of my head but look through them and you should find it.

Thanks. If I wasn't headed out to dinner I'd have it done sooner. Man ART really takes a long time after an update to rebuild the binaries. LOL! But ART is definitely the way to go. Especially in light of the revelation that it's default in Android 5.0.
As promised, full image is up. Enjoy!
Looks like I got the OTA update today. Will it not work since I am rooted from your last full restore for 4.4.3?
It'll work fine if you've not modified anything. I sideloaded it while rooted.

I must be blind because I'm not seeing it I am on 4.4.3 but modified.
Yes you are missing it. The little link that says full rooted. Don't know what to tell you.
Sent from my XT1053 using Tapatalk
Would you mind posting link please?
Nvm. It is not under the full rooted header but instead the downloads header
Worked like a charm even with CWM and Xposed
Samuri, I am so, so grateful that you keep us updated on the I9505G! Thank you!
Just in case anyone else finds themselves in the same situation as me, I had used Samuri's previous Full Rooted Restore for 4.4.3 with ODIN (here), then installed CWM Recovery (via Heimdall) and installed the Xposed framework. Obviously I could not use the OTA update directly! But using ODIN to get this 4.4.4 image worked just fine.
My steps, in case anyone wants it spelled out:
Uninstalled Xposed framework from within the installer just to be safe. Settings are not removed. This step is likely unnecessary, but can't hurt
Used ODIN to flash the full 4.4.4 rooted image, verified working and rooted
Re-installed CWM via Heimdall. (When rebooting, CWM asks if you want to fix root. Yes)
Re-installed Xposed and rebooted -- previous Xposed settings reactivated with no problems
There were some nandroid backups made along the way as well of course, just to be safe.
The only place I had an issue, this time and the previous time, was finding the right Samsung USB drivers. The ones on the Samsung website are ridiculously out of date and a lot of the links I found were broken or suspicious. Maybe a good driver link is something that can be added to these posts, for people who are starting fresh?
Anyway, thanks again!
I had a link to ODIN and the samsung driver but the site I linked to was serving up malware so I pulled them. I'm hosting my own ODIN link now and I don't have the latest Samsung drivers. I wonder if sammobile has them. I bet it does.
If I uninstall root, will the phone still get the next OTA?
I'm pretty sure, but wanted to be 100% sure. Couldn't find a stock image that I could flash via Odin that wasn't pre-rooted.
Nor will you find a stock ODIN image that isn't rooted because Samsung doesn't release them for us. I have to manually create them. Root and the OTA have absolutely nothing to do with each other. I routinely flash OTA's on mine while rooted. Half the time I don't even lose root by doing so. Whether you choose to leave it or remove it won't have any impact on receiving the next OTA.

So I found out while I was on vacation. sigh. The site I was linking to had a malware infected version apparently. I've been using this version without issue for quite some time. It came from this site with all the versions included.
Custom kernel via odin?
Your image worked perfectly; thank you.
Have you ever run across a way to get a custom kernel as a flashable Odin image?
Looking for the alucard kernel..
Thank you sir for any information that you might have.
I imagine you could make a flashable odin image from it. There are some ODIN image tutorials/guides out there that you could follow. I have no experience with that personally.

Do you have a non-rooted version for the US I9505G. I need to return to stock as I have attempted to use "unroot", but Good for Enterprise is still saying my phone is rooted.
This is the way i update my Rooted N910F Stock 4.4.4 to Lolipop 5.0.1 with Root and Philz Touch Recovery without wipe my data
1) Flash Stock 5.0.1 via Odin (Link)
Instructions:
-Extract (unzip) the firmware file
-Download Odin v3.09 Link
-Extract Odin zip-file
-Open Odin v3.09
-Reboot phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
-Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
-Add the firmware file to AP / PDA
-Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
-Click the start button, sit back and wait a few minutes
2)Booting UP and check you 5.0.1 (with all you Apps still installed) not swiped !
3) Root: Download CF-Auto-Root for N910F N910F root
Instructions:
- unzip the CF-Auto-Root-....zip file (see posts below this one)
- If you end up with a recovery.img and cache.img file, you've extracted twice. You need to end up with a .tar.md5 file - don't extract that one
- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer
- Start Odin3-vX.X.exe
- Click the PDA button, and select CF-Auto-Root-....tar.md5
- Put your phone in download mode (turn off phone, then hold VolDown+Home+Power to boot - if it asks you to press a button to continue, press the listed button, or run adb reboot download command)
- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer
- Make sure Repartition is NOT checked
- Click the Start button
- Wait for Android to boot
- Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you need practise!)
4) Booting UP and enjoy you Rooted 5.0.1
5) Install Philz Recovery on 5.0.1 (for next Custom Roms)
-Open PlayStore and install Flashify, from hear download and install Philz Touch Recovery
Will the auto root suggested work for any variant of the Note 4 or should I use the one for the N910P?
I only ask because I've yet to find the one for Sprint
Where did you get Phil recovery?

Introduction (will be deleted some time in the next couple days)
Hello everybody, I will be getting this phone next month and look forward to expanding this thread to cover more than just firmware and odin. I have made a few guides and have been told how easy it is to understand and follow compared to others. With that in mind I figured I would just nip this in the butt right now before someone beats me to the punch.
Other than odin I will also for sure be making a back to pure untouched stock for twrp which will flash the following stock images: system, kernel, modem, recovery and if we never see a locked bootloader rpm. This will have to wait until I have the phone because I refuse to make work public unless I have tested it on myself first.
Other than this first part of the op, it should stay more or less the same for the next month. post #2 will have a sandbox for the future of the op then it will turn into a spot to post answers to commonly asked questions.

You recommend JOdin for Linux users. But isn't that just a front end for Heimdall, and Heimdall has not been working on Linux for a while?

I thought it got updated, I'll look into it.
Thank you for this. I rooted my phone before I installed the OTA because the TMobile rep told me the latest OTA was bricking phones. Obviously, this was not true and I couldn't update the phone. All is well now.
Would going through the process untrip the KNOX flag from rooting and such?

No! Once it's tripped, it's done. No resetting it.
I tried using JOdin last night but it couldn't ever get my PIT file and never restarted my phone. It would just say that it failed. Can I use someone else's PIT file for the same model or does it need to be specific to my phone? SM-G920T is my model, if so.
I tried odin on a friend's windows computer and it never recognized my phone when I plugged it in in download mode. so i'm not sure what is going on. :/
WARNING: Stop asking if you can flash this on other phones. You can NOT. It is meant for the I9505G ONLY. This is NOT a "rom". This is a system image for the I9505G. Flashing to any other phone will brick it.

A GIANT thank you to @MJHawaii for helping me learn this process!!!
PB1 February security update posted.
Really appreciated you keep updating this,
^,^
Looks like there is a secret stash for i9505g I will install on my m919 using only system and cache will report back here soon) peace
And keep updating us brother peace!!
There are people out there who maintain roms for other devices by using these ODIN images. They work just fine, but, I do not support them in any way other than posting the images here. I'd prefer to keep this thread specific to the 9505g, however. Otherwise it could confuse people and I don't want anyone on a non-9505g device trying to flash these ODIN images thinking it might work cause it ill brick them. I get what you're going to do, but, others may overlook it.
The original PC1 image was bad. I just now replaced it with a new image, so if you downloaded it before this post was made, redownload it.
This does not include the bootloader?
No, I don't include the bootloader in the image. It's never really been needed for most people.
Great work as always Sam will fix updated version for s4

Hi Samuri! Since the may update has appear in my mobile, have you available the correspondent update image?

Nope. I've yet to see the update. Once I can get ahold of it, I'll make the image.
PE1 is up now.
I have a problem on all gpe roms, my mobile data never turns off!
After i switch off lte connection it comes back in just a second
No idea.

Yea these are taken directly from the S4 GPE and created. No bloat other than what Google adds to the images.
better than any custom rom ?
