I can't install TWRP in N950F - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

I tried many attempts in installing TWRP in my phone today but always ending up with "only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed" and yes I have my OEM unlocked. I'm currently using the Pie 9.0 from June 15 2021 update

I don't really understand. Is Odin or Heimdall sending this message? That would be absurd.

This could end up in hard brick also if OTA detects other system modifications. You should just edit the OP with a warning.

Couldn't one just install it from this link?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...lash-official-firmware-moto-g5s-plus-t3681018
This is basically all of the stock firmware (Including the recovery), correct?

i don't think so abt hard brick

and i also tried updating after flashing custom rom [which is available online] and i was successfully updated

I don't think it's a useful thread as there is a specific thread to give information about installing Official firmware and relocking the bootloader.!
Please moderator check this once.
This might damage the devices if anyone tries to update the ROM through OTA, by just changing the recovery being the variety ,oem and bootloader status changed.

In stock Moto G5s plus rom I had installed TWRP and rooted the phone and just wanted the stock recovery so that i can install April security patch, The recovery was installed however when it tried to install the April update it failed, All though it did load the OS and i was back to where i was.
Whole story in short if you have rooted the phone with TWRP and need stock recovery just to install latest update, IT WONT WORK.
You will need to install SANDERS_NPS26.116-61_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml from site firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto%20G5s%20Plus/Stock/ and then start the entire thing from scratch and then it will update over OTA as well regardless if bootloader is unlocked.
once your device installs all updates you can then install TWRP again and root it if you want to. but if you do that and wish to get OTA you will need to go back to stock and repeat the whole process from scratch.
Could always just do "fastboot boot" instead of "fastboot flash". It will allow you to then boot twrp, install what you want, and not touch the stock recovery.

Hey! I Finally did this, I removed the twrp and the root, I Just installed this stock (?) rom through the "adb fastboot". Now when I look for OTA updates it appears a message that indicates that the latest security update is installed, it's the one of December 2017...
Why doesn't it appear the last one (april's or so)?
What I have to do in order to have or reactivate the OTA updates?
Thanks in advance!
Make sure the correct stock rom is installed. (Cross check the name word to word) I too tried a few different stock ROMs and only the above version worked and updated till April security patch. Rest versions didn't update for some reason.

Don't go by date go by exact name and number of rom as I mentioned. I tried almost all the firmwares listed and only the one that I mentioned updated to latest april security patch. Matter of fact i just restored phone to stock yesterday and it worked again. Also copy all the commands to a notepad and save the same as .bat file so that way you can just run the file and it will automatically install stock rom and reboot phone.
---------- Post added at 08:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 AM ----------
Check software channel name in settings. Mine is listed as retin. I read that there are other software channels too for which updates security patch has not been released yet. I may be wrong though.

Hi all,
I've just applied the 01 April Security Patch and my phone has rebooted into TWRP. If I select to reboot, it starts to reboot and goes back into TWRP. Any ideas as to how I can get it to reboot back to normal ?
So I'm basically stuck in a TWRP Bootloop
Thanks in advance

Hi, you should know that you can't get updates via OTA once you have modified system, and unlocking bootloader and flashing TWRP is certainly a system modification, so I really hope that you made a TWRP backup before trying to update. In case you didn't, try flashing official firmware using fastboot, also there is one post in XDA with a TWRP backup in case you messed up, if you can't use fastboot or don't have a backup, try using that one. Remember to NEVER update via OTA unless your phone is fully unmodified.

How to rollback (downgrade) to previous security patch?

Hello!
So i want to root my NB1 but from what i read these couple of days, TWRP is incompatible with September and October security patch. I know that May and June are so my question is:
When on my slot A is the October patch and on my slot B is the September one how can i downgrade the B slot to May??? It would be really helpful if somebody explain that. I've tried to BOOT ( not flash) May prerooted img but the phone is stuck on powered by android logo.
U say twrp working in september security. So change ur phone to slot B.
Go to download mode. And use command
Fasboot reboot booloader (for enter download mode again)
Fastboot boot twrp
If it not boot to twro this mean twrp not comfortable with september.
If u want downgrade use ost tool 6.0.4 or ntool
To downgrade, here's a description:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...ia-8-official-firmware-links-updated-t3678487
You will flash then Oreo SW with may security patch where TWRP works fine.
Use this workaround for flashing Oreo software with OST 6.0.4
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-7-plus/how-to/workaround-flashing-oreo-firmware-t3793791
Other possibility would be to change slot assuming that the other one is on August security patch
Last but not least is to use patched boot img, the description is also on XDA forum in Nokia 8 section

I met exactly the same situation like the yours. Slot A on September and Slot B on October SP.
I cannot root it with any method in the forum on both the two slots. ( TWRP/ pre-rooted boot)
To downgrade, both the OST LA 6.12 /6.04 cannot downgrade my nokia TA-1052 with Sep/Oct SP.

My slot A is with October patch and B is with September. Also i dont want to try OST LA because this phone is my daily driver and i already have my old rooted phone. If you want to root your phone we need to wait for TWRP update. Really hope the maintainer update it soon to work with Sep and Oct patches.

Change system status to Official feom Modified and install OTA

Hi,
I just unlocked my X4 (XT1900-2) to try Magisk and all worked good.
Now, when I wanted to revert, I just installed the stock image using fastboot and adb.
After installing them and re-locking my bootloader I was not able to change my system status to Official(I installed Ryzen Kernel before).
Nor I am able to install any OTA to change it to Official, can anyone tell me how can I install OTA update and change my status to Official and be stock again.
Please help!!!
Thanks in advance,
Divanshu Chauhan
Can you provide the information of system flashed because if correct system has been flashed then the status should change to official. Try reflashing the system.

The system seems to be correct but its not official signed image so try to reflash the system or factory reset or try to get latest system signed image flash it and then check the status.
But many users have faced this problem even after flashing stock rom and relocking the bootloader they were unable to install ota.

You can try but make sure this stock rom is for xt1900-2 ,the other option is to wait till motorola releases signed images for the device ? or to visit the authorized service center they might flash the system and give your device back in official state.

https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=229118
Select the payton image that has latest build and for safety i would suggest unlock your bootloader and try to flash the system .
Try to flash PAYTON_OPWS28.46-21-9 from the link it might help.

so i guess you will have to wait till firmware is released with latest security patch because you have broken ota so only option left is to update device using fastboot . Did you get any error like pre-validation failed while returning back to stock ?
You won`t be able to install ota until your device status changes from modified to official.

I have seen video tutorials in which they flashed android one firmware on retail but you will have to keep bootloader unlocked .But i would suggest you to flash custom rom if you keep bootloader unlocked atleast you will get additional features and once moto x4 recieves android 9 update then you might get official system image to flash via fastboot and return back to stock. Search on youtube for tutorials it might help you ?

Hey. I used this rom as well to move back to stock but OTA's work fine for me. Currently on the 1 Oct patch. I still get the warning message during bootup even if I relock it. But apart from that everything else works fine.
The only thing different I have done is use the flash script from the below linked thread. Not that it should have made any difference but you guys might as well try and see.

The only thing different I have done is use the flash script from the below linked thread. Not that it should have made any difference but you guys might as well try and see.

Have you re-locked your bootloader after flashing this script?
Did you use Linux or Windows?
I tried relocking but then the warning changes to that of a unsigned system image being used. Don't remember the exact wordings. So then I moved to back to unlocked bootloader.
I am using windows.

You said you successfully downgraded?
Then you didn't need HiSuite (and TWRP) - just WiFi and SIM card to start receiving OTA back to Nougat
And no need to open new thread each time
What was exactly full model/cust/build name from Settings/About of your running system (you didn't provide it in the first thread before downgrade, neither now?!
Flashing TWRP, downgrading/upgrading and now unbricking (?) depend on that - did you downgrade and had it working EVA-L09c432b182 or what?
And TWRP for MM is different than for N

Android 6 doesn't mean anything for your question why it doesn't upgrade to Android 7.
And again, you are not answering what is the full build name (incl cust) and number of your build as in Settings About - but if you don't mind about reading it...
If you are sitting on eg c900, you will never ever receive any upgrade.
Also, for OTA you must have WiFi but also a valid SIM card.
