Does anyone know if Samsung is planing on releasing 4.4.2 for the Samsung Galaxy S4 Active i9295 i can't seem to find any news regarding update for this this one.
Also, does anyone know if there is a stable custom ROM for i9295 ? i tried carbon but the camera didn't work, so i returned to rooted stock ROM 4.2.2
It would be good if anyone could share a stable custom ROM for Samsung Galaxy S4 Active i9295 with the camera and most features as possible working (doesn't matter if it's 4.3 or 4.4.
Thanks all
From what I know from Samsung they still working on 4.4.2 for I9295. We have to wait.
There's some drivers problems with camera that's why it doesn't work as on stock Rom. That's problems of every Custom Rom that I saw.

Thanks ewa12321 I guess we will have to keep on waiting. If anyone hears anything about releasing date for 4.4.2 for s4 active i9295 please spread the word.

Hey guys, the update is out for the i9295 officially! Unfortunately, you can only get it in the Netherlands right now, and will probably be out around the world in a couple of weeks. If you are impatient like me, you can try flashing the update yourself and relieve that suffering! I can't post the link where I got my update as I am a nub and Mr xda does not want spamming, but a simple Google search can get you to the tutorial on flashing this update using Odin. Also, I am not sure if this will void the warranty as it is the official update but it is being manually flashed. This update should work on any i9295 factory unlocked version.
good luck!
S4 Active i9295 on stock 4.4.2
hello,
does anyone know how to root S4 Active i9295 on stock 4.4.2 ? i used to be rooted on 4.2.2 but was not getting updates OTA, so i re-installed stock 4.2.2 via Odin and updated to 4.4.2 OTA now that i've done this, my phone has knox, anyway i have installed CWM-Recovery-gt-i9295_v1-2.tar.md5 via Odin, but when i try to flash CF-Auto-Root.tar it doen't work, i'm thinking maybe now that i am on 4.4.2 they way to root the phone may be different, any help anyone can provide would be much appreciated.

S4 Active i9295 on stock 4.4.2 with knox
Hello,
In order to root your 4.4.2 OTA Update, I would recommend reflashing it clean using Odin.
Then download CWM 6.0.4.8 with Swipe by mythi and flash it using Odin. Then download SuperSU v1.99 from chainfire's website or the dev forums and flash the zip file using CWM. Now reboot your device and you are fully rooted.
When you first open SuperSU on your device it will ask you if you want to disable KNOX, just hit Yes.
Good day!

Has anyone done this and does it work... After that can i flash stock jb rom with odin.
And are the instructions for s4 active international ( nordic ) version.
Yes I have done it.
I also have the NEE (Nordic) S4 Active, I tried both with the Stock 4.4.2 NEE from Samfirmware.com and the PHN 4.4.2 ROM of mythi's.
I am now running CarbonRom 4.4.2, and also tried to restore 4.2.2 Stock.
The only downside being that if you install 4.4.2 and restore a custom ROM after that you will get a red line when booting saying "KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING".
So you can go ahead full speed and try it, works like a charm!

Okay!
My problem is that only updates what i have installed are samsung stock updates, so i haven't never used odin or flashed anything in my phone.
After i updatet my phone to 4.4,2. ( i think it was last week) some of apps stopped to work
Now i'd like to downgrade it back.
I found some instructions that only thing that i have to do is flsh 4.2.2 with odin and i'm back to jb.... it did not work. And now i' back to kk...
But if i use your instructions to root my stock 4.4,2 and after that i flash stock 4.2,2 NEE Rom i' m back to JB.
Can you also type simplified instructions (with downloadlinks) how to do it... it's my first time.
Thanks so much!!!
revert to 4.2.2
hello,
i have a GT-I9295
i have updated from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2 PDA: I9295XXUCNH2 released 7 aug. via odin 3.09
had to do a factory reset to get wifi working, etc..
i then wanted to revert back to 4.2, but i couldn't, and still can't... i did the following:
- flash with odin the 4.2 from sammobile: error: NAND Write Start!!.....<ID:0/004> Complete(Write) operation failed. soft brik, Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again.
- tried to reflash the 4.4 firmware i already had with odin...same error.
- couldnt boot the phone again untill i flashed cwm 6.0.5.0
- installed carbon rom from cwm no problem. did reset, wipe cahe, format system, etc. i now have the not seandroid enforcing message when booting and entering recovery, but everything works.
- tried to flash again with odin the 4.2 official, still no luck. same error right after nand write.
i remember downgrading from 4.4 PDA: I9295XXUCNE4 to 4.2 PDA: I9295XXUBML3 with no problems a while back on my other i9295 via odin.
is the bootloader different in this version of 4.4 i flashed than the one i flashed a while back?
the weird thing is that i get the same write failure with reflashing 4.4 with odin.
any thoughts?
thank you
Hi,
First post on here. I have bought the SM-N9200 in China after my Z3 screen broke for the second time. I live here (china) at the moment but did not realise that you would be unable to install google play services and therefore google play on the phone. I have a fair few apps purchased on GP and would like them on my phone.
I have read that I would need to have root access prior to being able to install GP but I am running into problems. I have never rooted before even though I was aware of the process etc but have so far been unsuccessful using kingoroot and I cannot seem to find a root method for the Chinese n9200. I saw today that the spaceX kernel supports N9200 so I thought that I would flash twrp with odin and then consider flashing spaceX. However when I try and flash TWRP it fails and the phone displays a message in Chinese that I cannot read as my Chinese is not that great still.
I am not in a hurry to install a custom rom at the moment and mainly just want to be able to get my apps. Can anyone suggest a method? is it possible to install HK Rom onto Chinese n9200 for example?
Many thanks

To flash in Odin you need to enable OEM unlock in Developer Settings.
I tried installing Chinese on HK and it failed (Cache.img)
OEM unlock and USB debugging are on. Odin was run as Admin.
If you try flashing the wrong TWRP (i.e not for your phone) will it fail or will it still flash. I was trying to TWRP for the DUOS version which i am assuming is my phone as DUOS is the dual sim variant?
I will get a chinese friend to tell me what the message is and take a photo of what happens.
Essentially i boot into DL mode and then attempt to flash when the bar fills up the odin still says recovery but the screen on the phone gives me warning (triangle with exclamation) and some information including a the web address for samsung.com/cn
I can help with that Chinese message. There are some problems for you to use GP in China. First, you can use Odin to install HK (TGY) Rom( remember to backup before u do so). After you install HK Rom, you need to connect to a VPN and then go to Google settings.
Hope these info would help you.
Possible solution found in another thread. it seems that the bootloader is locked on some devices and therefore you cannot flash anything.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...ote-5-root-t3214234/post63073600#post63073600
One question. What would be the difference between the HK and Chinese versions of N9200 other than some restrictions. Is it safe to use guides like the one linked for a chinese version?

TGY is the name for HK ROM. You can find it on samsung-updates. Both Mainland and HK variant share the same specs, which is N9200.
SUCCESS!
So after much stress I have a rooted, TWRP'd, Romd N9200 Chinese version. I say stressed as I had some problems when i flashed TWRP in that it would not let me boot back into the stock rom. this leads me to one unanswered question. When flashing TWRP with ODIN is it a requirement to flash a new rom?? I say this as I had the following problem. When I first flashed twrp the phone booted into stock so I rebooted into recovery only to find stock recovery and no twrp. I checked that the KNOX counter had been tripped (it had) but I was confused. I read on twrp website that on some devices if you let phone reboot into stock after twrp flash rom it overwrites custom recovery. I eventually flashed twrp and quickly pressed key combination for recovery and I had twrp but then I could not boot into stock rom (bootloop).
After spending the afternoon in a state of panic I reflashed the stock rom from Sammobile and was back in business. crisis over and a bit of confidence gained.
I am now using SpaceX kernel following this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/development/kernel-spacex-pure-edition-stock-t3236317
so far no problems so thanks to @Manh_IT
Here is my step by step if anyone finds themselves in same position:
1) unlock OEM and USB Debugging and backup everything using SmartSwitch (this replaced Kies I believe)
2)download CROM apk from Samsung appstore to unlock bootloader
3)Download SpaceX, SuperSU.apk, Gapps and twrp and place all except twrp onto phone memory
4)Flash TWRP with ODIN and reboot into recovery using method described above if need be.
5)factory reset in twrp
6)flash SpaceX and Gapps
7)reboot system and install SuperSU
I hope this helps someone.:good:
Anyone rooted in n9200 with latest OKA firmware?
actually you don't need to root your device...
just make sure OEM unlocked and find a HK version stock ROM and install it with Odin

well if you use N9200(CN)...you can follow the steps to get gapps
Once you use Crom.apk, you lose your warranty , so DON'T use CROM to unlock the phone
Make sure OEM unlocked
Reset to factory in case of some issues
Turn off the phone
Take the sim out of the phone
Get into download mode
Plug to PC and use ODIN to flash the HK stock ROM.
gapps will be install , no root, and you wont lose you warranty , but the battery saving is not as good as CN version.
I have gapps on my note 5 n9200

Hi great to heard that you have managed to resolved this issue. I have the same problem ( I bought my Note 5 in Beijing recently), so please can you explain what I need to do? I can do point 1 & 2 but stuck on point 3 and the rest. Where do I get all these files from?

Hi , i downloaded the latest firmware of this model , and installed it using Odin.
Anyone knows how to root this device with Android Marshmallow?
I already tried to installed the latest beta version of SuperSU installed it using TWRP but its not working
please anyone help me how to root this
Thanks,
Nico
Nico,
I came across your thread multiple times in search for how to root mine. I ended with going to the autroot chainfire site and following the instructions there. The package was listed for the SM-t350 on 5.0.2 but I can confirm it worked on 6.0.1 stock .
Cheers

You have to be extremely careful because there is a Lollipop and Marshmallow version of this device. I cannot give a link to the correct thread, but there is a thread on XDA that has a Marshmallow guide.
Basically you just flash with Odin, I used TWRP version twrp_3.0.2-1_sm-t350_mm_9816
Before you flash make sure you are in dev mode so Knox does not screw with you. have your SuperSU flash Zip on your SD card, I used UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.76-20160630161323
Boot into recovery, select install and chose the file I said above. It will flash and Root your device as a system root.

I had this exact problem with SM-G890A on 6.0.1. I flashed a stock firmware, and I had no mobile network, sim card wasn't detected, etc. The problem was that my device had the most recent update (from March). I am not an expert, but I believe this update makes it harder for devices to be susceptible to flashes (hence "extra security"). To fix this problem, after flashing a stock firmware, I put my phone in recovery mode (volume up, power, and home) and downloaded ADP, and from there, I was able to download each update after my stock firmware until I reached the update that I was on before I ever flashed. I hope that makes some sense. There is a great post on here with the updates available for download and instructions on how to use ADP. I wish I still had the link, but try searching the updated version that you should be on. Whenever I finished the last update and my phone restarted, I restarted it again in recovery mode and cleared the partition cache. Restarted it again and VIOLA, I finally had service. Feel free to email me if you have any questions. Sorry, I am not great at explaining things. I hope you can resolve this. [email protected]
Fixed and Downgraded
I had this same issue. I was able to fix it by first upgrading back to 7.0 as mentioned above, and then flashing ONLY the BL and AP files of the 6.0.1 firmware using Odin. Worked for me.
U need flash to android 6.0.1 build Pk8.

Hey I had the same problem as you and I was panicking. I downgraded to 6.0.1 from 7.0 final version but the SIM/IMEI/Broadband/anything phone related was broken. What happened was the final build of 7.0 upgrades the security of the SIM/IMEI/Broadband and so if you flash any other firmware, it won't work with the newer security and it'll remain unknown. To fix this, you have to upgrade to 7.0 final build again. Just adb sideload all the way back to 7.0 final QD1 and your SIM/IMEI should activate again. I guess ATT/Samsung is preventing us from downgrading just like Apple
Flash the Nougat Odin package.
Peace All...
I am currently on Minotauras ROM (MM) and would like to update my Note 5 920G to the latest Nougat firmware---so I can download a Nougat custom ROM (i know one is not dependent on the other, but I was always taught that if the base changes, its best to update the firmware to avoid any potential problems). However, I'm unclear as to what steps should be taken to update the firmware--I'm relatively new to SamSung devices. I know Odin is the update utility, but unclear whether I should first flash a "stock" Marshmallow Recovery and stock ROM--then take OTA...or can I just flash the Nougat firmware and then flash TWRP? What happens to my data & apps? Will all settings be erased?
Please advise.....

1)You are on stock Marshmallow 6.0.1 right as i guess so? Then you have MM bootloader(But if you are on 5.0.1 lollipop bootloader then you need atleast upgrade you bootloader to 6.0.1, you can find MM bootloaders at Samsung galaxy note 5 android development thread anywhere mostly at Dr.ketan Rom N8 S8+ port/You can also find Nougat bootloaders there only)
2)Don't worry then if you want to upgrade to any custom nougat rom then you can simply download prefer one and install through TWRP as you installed Minotorus Rom(Assuming You are on Marshmallow Bootloader and Oem unlocking/Usb debugging options are enabled from Developers option)
3)Or if you want to update your stock firmware to official Nougat for updated model and bootloader after that want to try Custom nougat rom, then you can download official Stock 7.0 firmware for your device N920G and specific country if available from websites like sammobile.com or samsungupdates.com etc (I am unknown about your country afaik samsung released 7.0 for N920G for some specific countries atm, like for asian countries not for latin american countries)
4)Further Odin flashing guides you can find also here within forum only, if you have any query related to odin flashing you can ask me i will provide you Odin flashing guide also(Kindly don't forget to enable Oem unlocking and Usb debugging option from developers option before flashing anything using Odin or you may brick your device)
5)You can also flash official stock 6.0.1 and update through OTA to 7.0 but above mentioned method is easy to directly update to nougat(Only if official Stock 7.0 nougat firmware available for your device model no and country)
6)While updating to stock firmware using odin, all your user data stored on internal storage will be lost(If you directly flash custom nougat rom on minotorus rom then user data stored on internal storage will be there) so i will suggest you take backup of your current data
Peace!!
First off--THANK YOU DroidHackeR for your response. I was out of town so I coulnt respond sooner. But Yes...I'm on MM 6.01 and I would prefer to upgrade to the offical 7.0 firmware. My model number is 920G, which I think is an International model.I am in the Unite States and using Tmobile's bands. I looked on sammobile and saw that they did have the official firmware (but for Bangladesh, India--I didnt see anything that said International...and thats where I kinda got stuck, cause I dont know if that firmware would be compatible). With that being said--I guess my best option would be to flash an official stock 6.01 firmware and then take the update? I have OEM unlocking and USB debugging enabled.
Could you please walk me through flashing via Odin? Like where would I find the stock 6.01 firmware? Sammobile as well? I know I will loose my data..I've backed up most of my files.
Thank you again for help!

Well you can always flash the MM firmware in odin then take the OTA but ive always just flashed the new firmware via odin just because it easy.
And flashing firmware via odin will not wipe your device unless you change your CSC.ive used odin literally 100s of time across numerous devices over the years and it never has wiped my device...common misconception for some reason.
But of course first you need to find the correct firmware for your device on sammobile.
Then once downloaded un zip it and load the tar in the AP slot in odin.
Occasionally a factory reset is needed for the device to boot and that will wipe your storage.
There are tons of tutorials on how to use odin...hit that search button, use Google or even hit you tube for videos (which are useful if your a total n00b since you can see how it runs so no surprises).
If you do it once after that it will seem so easy.

And flashing firmware via odin will not wipe your device unless you change your CSC.ive used odin literally 100s of time across numerous devices over the years and it never has wiped my device...common misconception for some reason.
But of course first you need to find the correct firmware for your device on sammobile.
Then once downloaded un zip it and load the tar in the AP slot in odin.
Occasionally a factory reset is needed for the device to boot and that will wipe your storage.
There are tons of tutorials on how to use odin...hit that search button, use Google or even hit you tube for videos (which are useful if your a total n00b since you can see how it runs so no surprises).
If you do it once after that it will seem so easy.

Well.. I searched YouTube video tutorials, GooGle searched and went to SamFirmware and downloaded a 6.01 stock firmware. However, the file I downloaded was for Bangladesh (I have a 920G model) and it failed when trying to flash it via Odin. So I downloaded another 6.01 firmware--this time for Brazil (as all tutorials have stated that as long as the model number is the same its ok to flash). At first the green loading bar was working and it got all the way through to radio image and then it failed---but now my system has been wiped and now my phone is bricked. Do you or any other member know of a 920G 6.01 firmware that is compatible for the USA? It appears the radios are not compatible causing it to FAIL in flashing it in Odin.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

1)Did you try to put 4files firmware that comes with BL,AP,Modem,CL separately?
2)As You can get into download mode successfully kindly install samsung smartswitch on your phone>connect your device to pc while in download mode>open smartswitch>select emergency software recovery so that it will recognise your device as well as actual latest firmware for your device to be installed
3)If smartswitch doesn't help anymore, try with full firmware(4 files firmwate of any of Latin American countries as you stated for USA, may be the country's that lies near to you by region) but this time you need to uninstall smartswitch or Samsung kies in case installed as it could possibly mess up with Odin flashing

Thank you for ur response. This is my first SamSung phone---I came from HTC and was familiar with their process of rooting and updating (which was a pain)--but I'm totally unfamiliar with Odin.
When you say put the files in separately---i'm not sure what you mean, cause when I extract the Update zip, I only get a a tar file---should I unzip in a folder?
Thanks again!!!
