Software version: N950USQS5CRK1
Android Version: 8.0.0
Security patch level: Dec 1st, 2018
I haven't rooted a phone since I had my HTC M7 back in the day. Now I have a Note 8 with Sprint and I was wondering about the legality and if there's any penalties for rooting it (if there are any). It's been a while and I'm kind of overwhelmed by all the threads on XDA so I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction or give me some advice, thank you.

You're not able to root anyway because you're on bootloader version 5 and there is no root available for that version!
Where can we download the latest software version that came out with January security patch.......or the one for February if it's out? I'm wanting to ODIN back from Pie DRL7.

Hi guys,
I'm sorry if this was already covered somewhere else, but unfortunately I couldn't find it.
I have AT&T Galaxy S5 Active SM-G870A with Android 5.0 and I'm outside of the AT&T network.
My employer requires me to have at least Android 6.0 with Android Security Patch Level July 05 2017.
Is this ROM anywhere available yet?
Can I flush the ROM with non AT&T to get an updates over the air with any carrier?
Can I install any available AT&T MM ROM and then install security patches separately, or it is always part of the ROM?
Thanks, I'll appreciate any response.
@radbaus
The last security patch both the G900A and G870A received was back in April 2017, and no custom MM ROMs can be installed due to the fact that the bootloader is locked and it cannot use chainfire without root because no MM root exploit exists currently. It is unlikely that AT&T will release any more security updates for this device as it is well beyond the support timeline.
The best advice I can give to you is to find an AT&T sim, maybe borrow one from somebody, or flash the firmware via ODIN. Please be sure you know what you're doing if you choose the ODIN route, however.
You can upgrade to MM using the Odin files like I did, but the last and final security update was 4-2017 there will be no more.

There has never been a way to unlock the bootloader on the AT&T variant. Root hasn't been available since Lollipop. Not aware of anyone still working on it, so don't hold you breath...

I know. A real bummer. I was really looking forward to get the most out of this phone but AT&T have really made sure that you can't do anything.
Well you know I got can hope and dream for root on a AT&T, maybe one day soon, maybe not.
I can update this firmware if my baseband is the G920AUCS4CPG1? My model is S6 SM920A 64gb AT&T.
Is there a problem with the bootloader blocked or unlocked? is that I do not know how it is on my device
i really need this firmware and the link is down can someone help me to get another link

If you're back on the latest stock T-Mobile firmware (8.1) ,T-Mobile US hasn't pushed it (9.0) out yet. (guessing you're on T-Mo US,going by your info)
https://support.t-mobile.com/community/phones-tablets-devices/software-updates
https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-39346
No word on when,never is,it could be tomorrow,Labor Day,or,anywhere in-between.
If you want the new US Carrier 9.0 firmware right now,you'll have to use Odin to load it up.

Hey Venom, ever since upgraded to pie via an update file from XDA, my software update screen says this and I never get OTA updates. I always have to flash each rom manually thru Odin.
Any ideas why my phone can't update via OTA anymore? I have not tried factory resetting or anything. I have however flashed several firmwares via Odin with no change.

Same thing happened to me. not sure if i got a bad download or what but i grabbed a fresh copy (of n960U1, the unlocked rom without carrier bloat) and i was able to receive OTA updates again.
@Venom0642 i have a question, why are incremental updates only say 200-1000mb over OTA, but when flashing they are always the full 4-5gb ROM files?

Hi,
I have had an issue with my Note 9 with the firmware from November right before this. I prefer Oreo to Pie so I wanted to update. The AT&T N960USQS1ARL2 files I have downloaded do not includ the home_cmc file and I do not want to reinstall apps and data. Please advise how I can get the home_cmc file.

If you mean you want to change N960A to N960F, the short answer is no.
Among other major differences, one is Snapdragon while the other is Exynos.

so here's the solution:
it involves searching and reading.
download the latest att firmware for your device.
you can use web sites or sam firm tool 0.3.6 to retrieve the correct firmware file that matches your device.
extrac zip and flash all components, put your device in downlaod mode and flash using odin 3.13.1 or 3.13.3 application. you will need samsung android drivers installed prior.
now the search and reading part comes here.
This is why I have spent less time on XDA. Someone comes in with a question and is ridiculed. Some members are so full of themselves. I'm a long time member and it's gets worse every day. SMH
N960USQS1ARI5 this is my baseband version.
