[Completed] [Q] Install Lollipop on SGH-I337 - XDA Assist

I have a S4 that I am trying to upgrade to Lollipop. I tried through the AT&T Software update and keep getting "Software Update Interrupted." I remember I had rooted it quite awhile ago (towelroot)? But I am selling the phone now and just want to restore it to stock and upgrade it to lollipop. Kies says it is updated (which of course it's not). I do not have an external SD card. I did a "Factory data reset" from settings to see if that would allow me to update but it didn't. I did some reading and a lot of old Google posts said just to bring it to Best Buy. Are there any other options as those are outdated and I am doubting BB will be willing to help. Any and all help appreciated! Thanks!

Really, no one? All I need is someone to point me to the proper thread so that I can get this thing back to stock without bricking it. Someone out there has to know the thread!

Hi, xml to put for using XDA Assist. If you're rooted or made any system changes the ota will not work. You probably have to flash the nb1 tar file in Odin and start over.

Two-Part Question: Manually Install Nougat and Then Root

Samsung Note 5
Model: SM-N920P
Android Version: 6.0.1

Rooted (do not remember the method I used to root)
After thoroughly troubleshooting issues with several Google Apps, I need to wipe my phone and start from scratch. I am currently running Marshmallow with OTA blocked. All of my data is already backed up. First question, once I wipe, will the phone automatically install Nougat? If not, what is the best way to manually upgrade to Nougat before wiping the phone? Second question, what is the cleanest and most effective way to root my phone once wiped and running Nougat?

Need GUIDE to ROOT my SM-J727P

It is my hope to locate the necessary files & utilities, ie., Odin, ROM, Recovery, TWRP, etc.,
to ROOT my phone, FIRST with a STOCK, DE-BLOATED firmware. If de-bloated is not an option, then a TWRP option would be the next most desirable.
It has been quite sometime (Summer 2013 on a Motorola Droid RAZR) since I flashed a phone with a custom ROM.
SO, it could be said I'm a bit rusty.
Please, TREAT ME LIKE AN IDIOT. As if I know nothing. Explain things as if talking to a child.
You CANNOT possibly hurt my feelings.
I need a clearly written, step-by-step instruction manual to perform the flashing of the phone.
I am very proficient in Windows, but am using an antique emachine running XP-SP3 with 512M of RAM, and 2.93GHz proc.
So, it has Wi-Fi to my phone, but no access to internet if the phone gets bricked.
A good backup plan, IN ADVANCE, is advisable. Suggestions are welcome.

SM-920F unable to dial (call/use the phone app) on custom ROMs

Hello,
I'm hoping someone can help me with the following issue. For a long time I used a custom ROM(NNE 3.1) and was able to call out and to be called. Until recently the Phone App just started to crash on any number I wanted to dial to. Since I haven't reset the phone for a long time, I chose to try out some newer ROMs, assuming the calling out/in problem would be solved.
However, whatever custom ROM I'm trying, calling doesn't work anymore. After re-flashing the stock firmware(Stock Samsung Android 7 - G920FXXU5EQI6_G920FPHN5EQI2_PHN) with Odin, I was able to call and to be called again.
After which I thought/hoped, maybe the stock ROM would have fixed the Phone App issue, so I tried various custom ROMs installed with TWRP, but with none of them the Phone App works. Not even with the exact same ROM I've been using for a long time. (I backed-up that ROM back then, and re-flashed the exact same file this time [NNe 3.1]).
What am I missing here? Some Samsung hardware security feature that got flipped back somehow?
Help is much appreciated...the stock firmware is so slow...
Thanks in advance!

Looking to Root, or how to Rollback Google Play Services

I have an Samsung Galaxy S7 from AT&T and last week, I received a forced System Update.
Since the update I'm unable to rollback any of the Google App's, such as Play Store or Play Services.
Android Version: 8.0.0
Samsung Experience Version: 9.0
Baseband Version: G930AUCU8CSA3
Kernel Version: 3.18.71-14365146-ENG [email protected]#1
Build Number: R16NW.G930AUCU8CSA3
Knox Version: 3.1 API Level 5 TIMA 3.3.0
At this point, I would like to my phone, however I've tried probably 15 different variations of instructions and I either end up with a file that wont even get to a point where Odin can start pushing the file, or I hit the "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [aboot]Fused 2 > Binary 1" error (and it's other variations).
I would greatly appreciate if someone could provide some guidance on where I can find the correct files, and instructions on how to get my phone to a rooted point.
Or roll back the Google Apps
you will have no luck sorry..but if you want to block gps use tin foil over the top of the phone

Internal Storage Issues

So I got the phone 2 days ago via eBay & already having issues the internal storage just keeps getting used up but nothing to show for it I'm very confused why this is 512 gb version of the Note 10+ it also won't update to the latest security patch it's still on 9.0 from August 2019 tried to update, it states it's on the latest update ??* any information would be much appreciated
Tried clearing the cache but again for it to come straight out the box & its internal storage to be used up that quick with nothing on the phone is very appalling

Idk why it thinks August firmware is the most recent, but here are the official SM-N9750 firmwares
Download whatever region/language you prefer and flash via Odin
I think that phone is not an original Samsung
Hardly any phone on ebay that is sold as new is actually new I had to return several they buy carrier wholesale phones unlock them flash whatever they think is right and list it as new instead of open box or used. The only sellers on ebay that sell truly new phones are Microsoft and Samsung.
