IMPORTANT:
1)You can follow this guide only as a N9005 user. Other Note 3 models will probably be destroyed.
2)I’m not responsible of what happends to your terminal. I updated my Note 3 doing these steps and it worked for me. If you follow my guide step by step, you will not fail. Do this update only if you know what are you doing.
3)Remember that updating bootloader to 4.4.2 will not allow to come back to 4.3 touchwiz roms or bootloader and will not allow to install 4.4.2 aosp-based roms.

LET’S START!
1) Extract the downloaded “Note3_Update_BootLoader.zip” file. I suggest to make a new folder and to drag and drop all the zip contnent into it. Copy downloaded “n9005-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.7-kk(0125).tar” file in the same folder.
2) Put you phone in download mode (turn it off and then hold down power button, volume – button and home button together until something shows on the phone screen. Now press volume up to confirm that you know what are you doing.
3)Open “Odin3 v3.09.exe” with Administrator privileges (right click on odin icon and click Run as Administrator)
4)Now “untick” Auto-Reboot. By doing that, your phone will not reboot after flashing bootloader.

First thing I don't understand is why we needs guide on development section.
Another thing is title. I didn't get you about data wipe. There are two method to update ROM either with CWM OR Odin (mobile odin/PC odin). If we directly flash stock ROM with odin that also doesn't wipe isn't ?
Problem only starts when we flash 4.4 on 4.3 (with any od said method) and device stuck at samsung logo. in that situation nothing but factory reset only works.
This guide can have better title how to flash bootloader and CWM recovery.

Thread moved by mods... my mistake. If you update to 4.4.2 from 4.3 using full firmware you need to wipe in order to boot to android.... This isn't needed if you update bootloader only... i wrote how to update from 4.4.2 without factory reset, installing bootloader only! If you follow this guide you will not have to wipe, so you keep root, recovery and data! It works, now i'm writing from a 4.4.2 rom, yesterday was 4.3 and i didn't lost nothing.
Inviato dal mio SM-N9005 utilizzando Tapatalk
OK, then when some users update 4.4 via OTA does their device gets stuck to boot? OTA also have new bootloader. Same way if someone flash 4.4 via Kies does their device gets wipe/stuck at samsung logo?
This thing is depends on data of device and may or may not stuck. In case it can't boot up, you needs wipe and nothing else will work in such situation.

OTAs and Odin firmwares are totally different. OTAs are a lot lighter then odin firmwares and personally i've never seen a phone that enters in download mode while updating using OTA. If you flash a firmware using odin, you probabily need to wipe data. If you flash bootloader only, you don't need to wipe. Trust me. I didn't left anything using this method, so i thought to share what i did. You don't must to follow this steps. But maybe there's someone that wants to do that. I wrote this guide for this "someone".

With your method though if you are on Knox 0x0 you get Knox 0x1 right? Because you flash custom recovery as I understand right? Because I am on 4.3 with Knox 0x0 and I would like to flash 4.4.2 without data loss but I am going to trip Knox If I use your method right? And if so, is there a method I can flash 4.4.2 without data loss and without tripping Knox?
I'm sorry, but there aren't any ways.... you'll trip knox if you follow this guide and if you update using full fimware, you will need to wipe data.... A question: why do you keep knox to 0x0? Warranty covers factory damages only, not user damages.... so if you had any factory damage, it should be already appeared!
Inviato dal mio SM-N9005 utilizzando Tapatalk
Well there are damages that aren't really user damages. If m/b gets fried or if screen gets damaged. For example on my S3 the volume buttons stopped working and it was covered by warranty. Am I wrong?

Ok finally rooted on 4.3 and used your method to flash XNOTE 8. Worked perfectly, no data loss

You're right.... Samsung Warranty isn't clear... in some centers, they repair phones for free even if knox is 0x1, in other centers this doesn't happen. If you're lucky, you won't have any problem!

I asked other people from my country (Greece), and they say that Samsung is going to accept warranty claims even on Knox 0x1. That's why I did it hope it's true

Here is a full guide on how to unroot and back to official stock firmware for Galaxy SII Plus GT-I9105/P. It is useful also if you soft brick your phone
!!!BE SURE THAT YOU ARE FLASHING THE RIGHT FIRMWARE FOR YOUR VARIANT!!!Do it on your own responsibility! if you follow this guide properly u will be on the safe side

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Before we proceed, make sure:
1-You have installed your Samsung Galaxy SII Plus GT-I9105/P USB drivers on your PC (the easiest way is to install Kies).
2-You need to enable USB debugging mode (Settings>Developer options) which is deactivated by default.
3-Your SII Plus GT-I9105/P should have 70-80% charge remaining.
4-Your SII Plus GT-I9105/P should be factory unlocked.
5-Backup your important data like Call logs, SMS and other data stored in phone memory in case if anything goes wrong, your data is not hurt.
6-Make sure that kies program is not running & disable antivirus.
This guide is only for Galaxy SII Plus GT-I9105/P. So don’t bother to try it on other devices.
How to do it:
Step 1) Turn OFF your mobile and go to Download Mode by pressing and holding the Volume Down + Home Buttons together for few seconds followed by Power button then proceed with volume up. (For some phones, when you see the construction Android robot and a triangle, press Power again to confirm to enter into Download Mode).
Step 2) Now open ODIN on your PC and connect your Galaxy SII Plus GT-I9105/P to your computer.
Step 3) Once your phone is successfully connected to your PC, the ID:COM box on ODIN will turn blue and will show the COM port number.
Step 4) unzip the downlowded file, u will get a Home.tar file.
Step 5) click on pda in odin (if odin 3.09 choose AP) and choose the file "xxxx.tar.md5"
Step 6) check "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" options and make sure that "Re-Partition" is unchecked
!!!!DO NOT CHECK "Nand Erase All" IN ANY WAY!!!!
Step 7) Click on Start button in ODIN window to start the installation process. The process will take few minutes to complete.
DO NOT UNPLUG USB CABLE WHILE EXECUTING THE PROCESS, YOU MAY BRICK YOUR PHONE!
Step 8) When the installation is completed, you read a "Pass". your phone will restart (first boot will take a longer time so don't panic) :good:
It is recommended to make hard reset after flashing to have a fresh official firmware
NOTE: I prefer to perform data and cache wipe before and after flashing stock firmware.
NOTE 1: If you have a corrupted partition table, (Odin says: "there is no pit partition" or "Re-Partition operation failed"), flash pit file for your device (attached) (put it in pit window) with your firmware, in this case "Re-Partition" must be marked.
NOTE 2: If it happen, and your new csc doesnt stick (the product code), usually a hard reset can solve this issue, or root it again and use third party application like "csc changer".
NOTE 3: For warranty reason, and if you have rooted your SII plus, you must reset the binary counter. Some users report that "Triangle away" application works on SII plus, do it when you still rooted and you have stock kernel and recovery.
Odin troubleshooting: If Odin accidentally gives you "fail" try the following:
- Repeat procedure.
- Make sure that all actions of Kies are disabled from task manager.
- Change usb port.
- Try another usb cable (make sure it is the original).
- Try another Odin version.
- Uninstall and re-install driver.
- Try another computer.

why 912 MB?
does it contain stock rom?or another rom?
if it's same stock rom lots of people already have it please give us only home.tar file. it takes me 12 houers to download and host won't let resume downloads and my pc can't maintain that much (but thanks anyway that's my problem)
-please someone tell what that 912MB file in third post contains?
another question about unrooting: i flashed CWM recovery via odin and then two files flashed with recovery(volume up+home+power) to root how can i restore them?(i don't care about triangle or warranty)
another issue:according to this post >> [GUIDE] [4.1] How to root and install CWM by panda00 if someone doesn't care about binary counter unrooting is just about flashing stock frimware with odin, what about that?
what's my problem?:i rooted my phone to use more storage space by deleting unnecessary system apps and moving my apps to system app folder instead(which i failed) but main problem is after rooting and wiping everything 249MB is mising

If you want to go to clean stock without root, you need to flash through Odin. I am not aware of any unroot method for i9105(P) without using Odin yet.
Or you can factory reset if you still want a rooted status (I think the root still stays if you factory reset, correct me if I'm wrong)
Make sure you backup important datas, files, pictures in your internal storage before factory reset / re-flash firmware.

Yes you are right the root even stays if you factory reset the device. Well after formatting everything ,stock rom has to be flashed by using odin after that you will find the binary counter increased. It will be cleared by sing TRIANGLE AWAY app. By this you can easily bring the binary counter to 0. By doing all this you will get the status stock

I never remove binary counter in stock (rooted) ROM before.
Should we Triangle Away first in rooted stock, then flash clean stock ROM using Odin and get official+zero binary after that?
(Or pre-rooted stock ROM )

But the thing is, wouldn't you need to re-root again to use triangle away? Hence, considering you want to return to stock, you would have to flash a stock firmware via odin to unroot. But then again, it would increase the binary counter?

You need root to use triangle away. After using, just flash stock directly. Don't go into cwm or it will trigger the counter again

Ah, that's my guess and you confirmed for me.
I ended up having binary counter at 5 after upgrading CM11 from stock 4.2.2.
Does the previous binary counter (before re-flashing stock 4.2.2) counted inside?
I don't recall entering recovery mode that much in CM11.
wipe everything and factory reset via recovery
flash stock rom via odin
thats my way without triangle away..
Not sure if my phone is unlocked,,,how can I tell? The *# thing in dialer doesnt work

Does this wipes data ?
Or can I do an "upgrade" from stock rooted (4.1, flashed via Odin) to this version ?
No It doesn't wipe data, if you got rooted stock It should be fine. Never the less a backup and a wipe is recommended.

1- Yes
2- you can flash any recovery you wish, but of course it will trigger the binary count if you wish to remove the binary count you must flash this package from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588557 and then run triangle away.

Here is her phone's info :

No recovery installed, and counter still at 0
Can I flash your version safely from her version ?

Worked perfectly, plus root via kingoapp
I noticed it is odexed, do you plan on a deodexed one ?
Sent from my Nexus 5
I will give a try, but my priority is to make it prerooted like a did before but on 4.3 the root gets disabled at first boot, so far.
Now that you are on 4.3 you can install a 4.3 deodexed rom via custom recovery or mobile odin, there is 2 such rooms in the development treads.

Everything went ok with the upgrading, except that Triangle Away not seem to work anymore?
I have run version 3.10 + unfreezed the sysscope file in Titanium B, but I'm still "custom".
Maybe it doesn't work when I have used the Kingo root? Do you have any advice..?
Regards
Unfreeze sysscope, unistall triangle away, reboot, clear cache and wipe data of sysscope and Interprise sysscope, now reinstall triangle away an run it.

I heard many comments about Mobile Odin not working with 4.3
Has anyone successfuly flashed this?
I have Mobile Odin Pro and 4.1.2
My phone is rooted but with a stock Samsung ROM.
Wondering if 4.1.2>4.3 will go smoothly with Mobile Odin and this ROM, keeping root. Anyone?
If you follow my instructions for mobile odin it should work. ?

Did it all, in the exact order. Still custom. What gives?
With 4.1.2 it worked fine, but I used CF autoroot then.

In the OS. So now OTA is gone, & so is updating via Kies.
When I check the binary, it shows "1". *sigh*

Hello Nexus friends!
Hope someone can help me:
Is there a way to flash my nexus 5 back to stock and unroot without USB?
I think my USB port is dead, it doesnt load and I m not able to connect it with any computer. I wiped it but nothing changed.
History:
I flashed and rooted my phone with Nexus Root Toolkit from stock (4.4.2 (KOT49H) i think) now after OTA updates its runnig 4.4.4 (KTU84P).
plz help!
regards
Mike
You could flash a stock recovery flashable ROM....would need root for that obviously.
As far as flashing stock recovery....not sure about that one. Maybe flashify can help? Never used it myself. You need a flashable stock recovery tho.
Also, the boot loader will be unlocked still, so that's kind of a dead giveaway. Nothing you can do about that without connecting to a computer for fastboot.
Need to know the full situation.
If you've lost root you NEED a custom recovery. If you have stock recovery, you NEED root.
OTA removes root and custom recovery.
Please give situation report.

I can walk you through it but I need to know for definite your current situation.
I need you to have either root, or a custom recovery.
To check custom recovery, hold vol down + power to boot to bootloader. Then use Volume up / down to navigate to "recovery" and press power to select. I want to see the recovery screen. Usually OTA will remove root and custom recovery.
Also, use root checker to check if you have root - I expect you will not have it.
First install SuperSU

Then install root checker

OK This means you have full stock rom and stock recovery. Only thing you have that you might not want is an unlocked bootloader, which you need root to fix. Do you want me to "Try" to and help you do tht or are you just going to leave it?
Are you sending it to google or LG?

Google will not reject warranty of hardware failure due to unlocked bootloader. LG might. If you bought it from google, it usuall goes to google, but not sure if changign country changes things. Best to ask google.
Only chance to lock bootloader is to get root by using towelroot. It may or may not work.
https://towelroot.com/tr.apk
Run the app. It is supposed to reboot but sometimes it does not. If it does not, reboot yourself. Then ipen SuperSU and check if it has root.
If it does have root, install bootunlocker https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.segv11.bootunlocker&hl=en - and reset tamper flag and lock bootloader. Then unroot using SuperSU.
If towelroot doesnt give you root, you cannot lock bootloader

EDIT: UPDATED WITH NEW KERNEL INFO FROM @freeza FOUND HERE
The Older Manh_it Kernel has random reboot issues and is NO LONGER RECOMMENDED .....
SO USE FREEZAS KERNEL DOWNLOAD HERE THERE ARE NO KNOWN ISSUES WITH IT AND HE UPDATES REGULARLY
ROOTING will trip knox and tripping knox WILL kill Samsung pay FOREVER...even if you flash back the stock tar
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO YOU PHONE. ... IT IS YOUR DECISION TO TAKE THE PLUNGE.
Anyone that tries this and gets bootloops and cannot recover here is a link to the OGD stock tar file... flash in Odin AP slot from download mode you should recover very easily DOWNLOAD THE SPRINT N920P OGD STOCK TARBALL HERE TO RECOVER AND/OR TO RETURN TO OGD STOCK
WORD OF WARNING>>> Once you take the update to OI6 or use the OI6 TAR (get OI6 HERE ) .. YOU CAN NOT GO BACK TO OGD.....
Download ODIN 3.10.7
Download FREEZA's BEASTMODE KERNEL.TAR HERE
DO NOT Download Noble_Kernel_Auto-Root_N920P_v0.1_Alpha.TAR
Download TWRP-2.8.7.0-N920P.TAR
Download BETA-SuperSU-v2.52.ZIP

NOTE: once you try a flash and "IF" it fails... you will need to disconnect and power off the phone and go back into download mode again or you will get "Setup Connection" hangup error when re-trying to flash
Now Click the "AP" button and in the pop up window, migrate to the KERNEL.TAR and double click it. Wait for it to verify md5 checksum. If bad, re-download the file.(you can download and flash the KERNEL. ZIP in TWRP later)
Now check in the OPTIONS TAB.... make sure ONLY Auto Reboot & F. Reset Time are checked...

After re-boot, GO BACK INTO DOWNLOAD/ODIN MODE and follow same steps and flash the TWRP.TAR file
(Do not try to boot the phone yet, you will get boot loops.....)
Now install LATEST KERNEL.ZIP & SUPERSU.ZIP in TWRP by going into recovery by powering off the phone then press and hold vol up+home+power until you see the TWRP splash .... (or just install from the market... the market install "may" give update binaries issues... I recommend flashing in TWRP )

nice bro, thanks. a lot of people have been waiting for this!
Is there by chance a flashable zip that doesn't affect the bootloader so you can go back to ogd if you want? I know in the past it has been done before, not sure what it takes to accomplish this. Thanks for all your hard work.
Thank you sooooo much, but this definitely should not be in the general section for sure. A mod needs to move this to its proper place, this is a lifesaver.
So I got a replacement Note 5. I updated to OJ6 and then followed this tutorial to root. I managed to get root and installed twrp. However, try to flash certain zips in twrp the phone just reboots. This only happens with certain zip files like xposed installer and the volume mod zip. The interesting thing is these zips flashed fine on my old Note 5.
Anyone have any ideas?
Edit: Nevermind, I reflashed stock via odin and went through update and root again. NOw it seems like it's working.
Can I flash twrp first and then flash the kernel zip? Because when I try to flash the kernel through Odin it gets stuck before it even starts.

I have the edge + .....can I revert back to oi6 as well? Sorry I'm new at all this! Lol thank you
So, I was a master at rooting/manipulating my phone, but as it was a Note 2 until yesterday, I'm a bit rusty.
My son and I both got new Note 5s yesterday (a 32G and a 64G) and they've got OJ6 on them. I'm not completely sure I understand the instructions in post 1 - do I have to take the phone back to OI6 to be able to root using this method? Is there no root exploit for OJ6?
If I do have to revert, could you post clearly how to do it, please? Once I get past that I should be okay...
I have all these things I want to get done on the new one (getting rid of all the Sprint apps, backing up my messages, moving some program data over, more...) but realized everything I know about manipulating a cell phone is in Root, so I have to do it...
Thanks, in advance, for the help!!!

Yes, you can root OJ6 the same exact way as all the current builds.
I'm sure you're familiar with Odin by now so just download the OI6 factory tar (there isn't one available for OJ6 so far, its only available as an OTA update) and have that handy should you wish or need to go back to stock.
Also, if you see the OGD tar, don't bother with that one, you wont be able to flash that factory tar anyway as it will fail checks in odin when it recognizes you're on a newer build.
Additionally:
Since you're going to trip knox anyway by flashing TWRP custom recovery, you might want to keep in mind about wiping your internal storage too if you're having any issues along the way. It probably doesn't apply quite yet for you at this point but you know how it collects tons of extra stuff the longer you run android. There are a couple of deodexed stock builds and a custom rom too should you want additional features not available on stock.
All seemed to go well, BUT
When I boot, in tiny red type at top left, I get a "KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING", or if booting into recovery "RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING".
What is that, and how do I fix it?
[EDIT] - I also just tried flashing the 1.2 version of the kernel and am still getting those messages...HELP...

[KERNEL] [ROOT] [SM-N920P Exynos 7420] [02 Dec] SkyHigh TW 5.1.1 Kernel [v2.4]
I don't have the device, but I created it to share with users after receiving good feedback on Note5 :good:
Please make no direct download link, but add thread link to your OP (if your desire).
Also, loads of features with Synapse
Cheers,
UITA
