SM-9208 New Firmware - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there was a new firmware update posted on Sam Mobile for the SM-9208 Taiwan today (N9208ZZT2AOK2). Has anyone updated to it yet? If so do you notice any difference and if are you still rooted.

Yeah, just noticed this update on Samobile but have not flashed yet. It is new firmware dated at 09/11. Wonder what are the changes.......

If you're rooted it won't update OTA. I used ODIN to upgrade to K2 and I've experienced no problems.

Agreed. That's the plan. I meant to ask if you're able to re-root after taking the update, using one of the root kernels. (Was posting my question in a hurry as I was going through TSA Checkpoint).

confirmed. flashed and rerooted w/o issue. only noticeable difference was the "Android Upgrading Screen" it's now full screen and similar to the one on my T-Mo Note 5 w/MM. @ravian29 - thanks for your reply as well.

I think mine was the Polish version, and the update finally came through last night - through the phones updater.
thanks for the reply! c",)
did you have the EURO (unbranded) version or the PLUS (polish network) version?
I rooted mine, then put on a custom 2.3.6 ROM (Sheep ROM 1.2)
OTA. Unbranded unit
Initially update wouldn't go through so i went ahead and flashed back to stock from rooted status and applied the update and then root it again

I received mine from Handtec on November 30, got the OTA update the next day, and it installed fine. Have rooted since then, without difficulty.
It was in Polish when I started it up, but I have no idea what "Plus" version is.
My update is ready, but Im not updating till ICS, or the 1.5 4g lte working on t-mobile.

I think Plus is the name of the polish carrier these were branded for.
its DEC 5 and still no OTA update for my unbranded polish ver galaxy note from handtec. :-(
just wanna update to 2.3.6 for the battery usage issue with 2.3.5.
quick questions to the GURUS:
* can i just flash the HONG KONG ROM ZSKK1 (2.3.6) on mine?
* do i need ROOT for that?
would really appreciate the hand-holding! ;-)

I used Odin and a copy of the stock ROM to do just that. I was stuck in a mode where kies kept reporting that my phone wasnt supported for upgrades and changing my code to DBT made my phone find tge upgrade, but refuse to install it. I rooted at first and bricked it during a failed upgrade, so I used Odin to drop the HK ROM on it with success.

Yeah Im using the t-mobile hotspot right now, until I can figure something out.
'Edit' thinking of cancelling or lowering the internet package on my phone and just use the hotspot for now.
My hotspot plan is 2gb for $39.99
and my phone data plan is 2gb for $20.00

I got mine from Handtec yesterday (Dec 6th). Polish version unbranded. I was able to update via OTA. The update notification came through as soon as I connected to wifi.

I'm on 5.0.1 Lollipop only because I downloaded the update from XDA and installed using ODIN. It is was a very easy process and does NOT void your warrany as you are not rooting the phone.
Bought my phone from Three last week and it came with 4.4.4.
To many problems with lollipop at the moment I am rolling back to 4.44.

I might try that,I haven't heard of it before though so I'll have to look into it a little bit more. Another question, let's say the official lollipop update comes out. How would I get around downloadin that after I uninstall the unofficial update?
I'm in UK and i recently update to 5.0.1 with odin ... yes, the warranty was NOT void but battery life it's quite poor ... i will wait for official UK 5.0.1 for EE. Untill then i will downgrade to 4.4.4 ...
I'm on BOC3 and find the battery to be excellent. Definately a better build than DBT.

make sure you use the 910F version else you'll risk bricking it. Theres plenty of instructions on here. Very easy.

I think this is the netherlands but works fine on my f unlocked UK.
Has to be said I was disappointed with the initial german release, the contacts app crashing constantly was a real PITA, I rolled back since then and found KK is far more stable.
Think what has been disappointing from Samsung is they are being pretty poor in software roll out planning, it is bad now however I am wondering how it will be after the S6 is launched globally.

It won't be "formatted", you'll have to do the factory reset yourself and since it is an official ROM from Samsung you phone will be eligible for later OTA's

Your internal/external SD cards will not be formatted, and you should still be able to receive OTAs after flashing. There is more information and tutorials on XDA/elsewhere on the internet ☺
I'm on 5.0.1 on BOC3. BOB4 wasn't anything fantastic after the initial hype of it being Lollipop died, but BOC3 was a noticeable upgrade to even BOB4. In my experience anyway. I have an unbranded 910F and flashed the BOC3 via ODIN. I'd highly recommend it!

I'm on O2, so still 4.4.4 at the minute but I've read that 5.0.1 should be out next week according to a veteran member of the O2 forums.

Disappoints me that its taking this long, having swapped from a Nexus 5. Feels like we're jumping through hoops just to get an update that's already outdated.

You recommend BOC3? So how does this fash work? Is it just necessarily an ota update you would get? And is it completely reversible?

Just finished flashing and restoring. So far so good. Anyone have a changelog for this update?
I'm currently on PD6. Can I flash this on top of that via odin or are there incremental updates I need to do prior to this? Thanks for the guidance!

Question about updating
Hi, first post on xda.
My phone is an AT&T version but I live in AU, and I want to update it to marshmallow from what it is currently on (5.1.1), and it won't update since I'm not in the U.S.
It's currently on AUCU3BO12.
Can I flash this PG1 without upgrading to anything else first? Can it go from 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 directly from BO12? (According to AT&T's website, BO12 is a bit down the line in terms of updates, there have been a number since).
Edit: Also, which .tar file do I use out of the 4?
Thanks!
Does anyone know the answer to the above?
Finally unbricked my G920 Samsung Galaxy S6 with this
Thank you so much for this. I bricked my phone by stupidly flashing a 5.1 firmware and i've been scrambling to fix it for about a week now. And I couldn't find these files anywhere. Thank you so much

So your phone was on 5.1 and you went straight to 6.0.1 with this? No intermediate updates?

Flashed on mine (BOI2, 5.1.1) and it's stuck in the samsung galaxy s6 powered by android screen.
Already restarted to recovery and wiped cache partition and factory reset from there. Still stuck in boot screen...
Any help?
EDIT: Flashed all 4 files this time and it worked. Only flashed the AP file the first time (which people all over the internet say you only need to do) but I had to flash all 4 and now it works. Thank you!

You just need to load all 4 files up in Odin (AP, BL etc.) and click start.
Make sure your phone is in download mode.

[Q] Anyone updated to the latest firmware (FPL1)?

So I am thinking about going back to stock, so I went to Sammobile to see what the latest is. It shows a firmware FLP1 from 1/17/17. I'm surprised I don't see any reference to it here on the forums. Is it just a a security update? Has it been rooted?
I can't find it.Can you send the link?The latest i found is epk2.

"flp1"does not exist for n910t i double checked at sammobiles.com. PK2 IS THE LATEST.
probably "flp1" is for other model not t-mobile note 4.

You're both right. In my carelessness I was looking at the Note 3 on Sammobile. Sorry for the confusion. But at least I know now there's an update for my aging Note 3.
