Hi all, i'm sorry if i'm writing on wrong place but i must ask. I have this at&t model and the question is, Can i put some other stock rom clean without this aditional at&t aplications and features? If there is a way, can someone explain it. Note: I want global or clenan stock rom, not custom roms and something like that. Thanks!
no you can't bcz its at&t and the bootloader is locked lol can't root or anything after 6.0

Hi everyone,
Before I begin, I just want to say that I've searched for a clear answer (here and on some french forums), et and I really didn't understand anything... Since I bought my Note a few hours ago. I'm new to this.
I just don't get anything, with all the Odin and kernels stuffs...
So, let me explain my problem : I just bought a Samsung Galaxy Note that was previously simlocked (at SFR, I'm in France, and I'm with Orange), the seller said it was sim unlocked at a store (but hey, I don't know if it's true).
Thing is, the Note has a Custom Rom, and I'd really prefer a Stock one (I don't like JKay, I want OTA update etc..).
But :
1) I don't understand anything. CFW is installed, if that can help you... I don't know which Rom I should take, how to install it... I'm Lost.
2) Do I lose the sim unlock by reverting to a stock rom ? If so, how to keep the unlock ?
Since I'm a real newbe, I took a screenshot of the "About the Phone" section to give you more details. It's right here
Thanks to all of you, have a nice day =)
Daz.
Hey all,
I just purchased this NOTE3 SM-N900A, the dork didnt send me a SM-N900T. In any case what I would like to do is root it with an custom ROM. I have tried ODIN about ten times this morning using the T-Mobile md5 file and I keep getting an error about Secure Magiccode Check Fail: Recovery.
The phone is suppose to be rooted but I cant tell.
I have Samsung Sii,SII and S4 but this one (Note 3) is giving me some problems.
Any and all information will be greatly appreciated to get rid of the ATT stuff and just install a custom ROM. I dont care about any warranties and or the KNOX stuff.
I want to install the TMO firmware with the correct modems.
All suggestions and or comments will be greatly appreciated.
on the ODIN SCREEN it states WRITE PROTECTION Enable.
Videos are welcome too!!
Ciao~
Brad
Honestly you may be best off selling the 900A. AT&T has locked the bootloader, so custom roms are limited to one's that work with the stock kernel (basically only touchwiz based roms, no AOSP, CM etc...)

Well Damn, what I really want to add the TMO Firmware. I have it unlocked and rooted, but I want the TMO modems.
It's been done before, there are several threads about it on here somewhere...

How did u unlocked it ??? and coming on KK from JB locks the phone again ??
I want to flash Android 4.4 over my 4.3.
I will likely wait until 5.1 is released before going to 5.0+
How would I do this on my tmobile version?
I download rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/general/stock-rom-c6602-v4-2-2-10-3-0-423-t2356455
edit: saw that it has no LTE. I need the one with tmobile LTE if anyone could link me to one.
follow steps:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-stock-roms-t2240614
Is that it? Looks easy enough, just need to make sure the rom is correct.
Just want to make sure the rom I posted above will work on my tmobile C6006.
Also is a deoxed rom or a rooted one available? Can it be flashed on my locked boot-loader?
I need some clarification is all.

Wrong forum bro, we have an Q&A section for questions.
Also, if u use search function and read a lot, you will learn a lot so you will understand what to do and more importantly: why to do.
Because otherwise you will most likely brick your device unnecessary.
sorry.
Also you can close this.
I found out that flashtool lets you download roms directly from the application.
I have carrier from atat unlocked atat s4 active i537 i was wondering how i would go about upgrading the firmware since i cant do it through atat no more and that the only option..OR is there a way through ODIN?

You have to downgrade to KitKat, root with towelroot, then upgrade with root, I've described the process in the following post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63639949&postcount=2
You can root your phone, it just takes a little work. Make sure to back up anything important because internal storage will be wiped at one point

There aren't any fully working 5.0.1 ROMs for this phone. There is one in this thread, but it breaks camera as far as I understand:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-active/general/golden-eye-v52-s4-active-wip-t3094259
Also thanks to the stupid locked bootloader, any rom for this phone has to be touchwiz-based (i.e. able to run on the stock kernel). No custom recovery, no cyanogenmod, no AOSP. But yeah, like that thread says, even the 5.0.1 touchwiz ROMs seem to break the camera when installed on this phone
thats what i thought thx

You could try the Super WizCyan ROM for S4 active withe the stock kernel + modules + /system/etc/wifi. I had one user who had reported flashing and booting successfully
Thx for the reply ill look into it altho im pretty sure its a downgrade from 5.01 but thx
EDIT: That Rom is for i925 i have i537 wont work for me

It is a touchwiz ROM with S6 port and it should work with your stock kernel, however to get wifi working you will need to have matching modems, kernel and files from /system/etc/wifi of the same firmware
let me look and see if anyone has these matching drivers per say for the hardware on here i think i saw someone posted it awhile back for my device thx
EDIT: Cant seem to find the post that contains what i need for touchwiz based as far as kernal , modem etc ...can anyone direct me pls? thx

Have you disabled signature verification (not sure if this option is available in flashfire - assuming that you are using flashfire to flash the ROM)
I did some checking on AT&T models and I was quite surprised that S4 AT&T (i337) users are using my WizCyan ROM for S4 on their device with the imperium kernel without any issues. If that is the case, I cannot see any reason why my ROM will not work on your device. I have my own kernel compiled from I9295 TW kernel sources with almost the same commits as the imperium kernel (there are previous ported versions of imperium kernel on my kernel thread as well) included in the ROM.
I don't know if I am missing something....
Since my bootloader is locked i cannot add toggle signature verification sorry to troll a old phone but my s6 edge plus is broke and dont have the money now to replace it but i appreciate all your guys help ....i have used flashfire and dont see a option to turn off sig verification either wish i could then perhaps it would work...btw my model is atat i537 so maybe the i337 works but mine dont not sure why

Maybe you have a bad download, did you flash the ROM v6.2 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...n-s5-style-t2874424/post65544473#post65544473
Below is the confirmation from S4 i337 with locked bootloader
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65703770&postcount=1209
well like i said i have i537 not i337 but yes i did get it from that post what did u use to flash this with?
EDIT: I ask because instructions say i have to flash using some variant of recovery how can i do this with this rom when the i537 wont allow me to use any kind recovery bc of locked bootloader i have re downloaded and am waiting for best way to flash ...
hi guys i am having a problem right now. my first note 9 was a n9600 snapdragon hk variant it was replaced by the vendor due to factory defect and was replace by a n960n single sim 512gb special edition model. my question is, is it possible to flash this with other official firmware to remove bloatwares from KTc to let say other exynos model? thank you in advance.

nope.( maybe with adb commands you can manualy disable/delete packages)https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access
if you root then you can do what ever but if not, then you are stuck. all 4 firmwares/carriers available for the n960n have bloat.And no you cant flash with odin an n960f stock firmware.
thanks @bober10113. sorry im kinda new in this things. another question. is it possible to change those language i see in samsung members and and other samsung apps? because right now all i see is korean language. is there anyway to change this to english/local language?

that would again be because of the csc installed.( one of the big 4 korean carriers. again if rooted wouldint be an issue to switch.

well i am not sure if for example LG+ ( LUC ) would have more 'english' menus but you can try.... yeah LG has a carrier and they sell Samsung phones! my note 8 was a N950N LUC and on the box there was an LG+ logo !
past 2 phones have been Korean models that i specifically bought and have not had any issues or defects. I always root and it has been quite easy because it has the OEM unlock option right away, no need to wait 7 days.
also since i dont need knox or samsung pay, root is the way to go for me. so much fun i wouldint live without rooting.
i guess root is the way. i dont need knox and samsung pay either because its not usable in our country and no merchant here supports it. thanks @bober10113. and last can you put me in the direction of the guide to root my phone? again thank you so much.

hi again @bober10113. i have read the link you gave me. now my question is if i install twrp then install magisk will i be able to install local firmwares like n960f? and will this still trip knox? even though its a official firmware? thanks.

once twrp is installed all bets are off. knox will be tripped.
but this will allow you to install magisk disable or delete bloat.
if this is not enough then you will be able to download a new rom.
a rom is a custom firmware. so you could get a rom that has everything you are looking for. usualy all roms for exynos and for N960F/ds. they will also contain full english locale.
have a look in this thread and see which Rom suits you better:

once twrp is installed, fone is considered as being modified. so might aswell take advantage of root.
And if i remember correctly to be able to boot into system, right now on the note 9 you need magisk to be flashed in twrp recovery.
so there issint really a way around it for now.( others can confirm or correct me on this).
alexander rom might be the exception though. read thread and post questions there if need be concerning a rootless install.
but magisk su has an 'su hide' feature where it will hide the system modification and root status from certain apps. you can even hide magisk from specific apps too. so if you need to install specific software that only runs in stock unmodified systems, it may very well work if these features are enabled correctly.
thank you ver much @bober10113. will check those threads. and go on with twrp magisk custom rom combo.
