Think the PB6 is as close to stock as you will get, The G930T I have came out with PB6, could not get a decent download or only links to the virus and scam downloads.
Managed to get a google drive copy of the PB8 to get rid of the garbage PC8 firmware.
Oh I tried about 12 times to download the G930T PB8 from sammobile and always got defective downloads. Their servers was too unstable to do one complete download, Both fast and slow ended up at a ridiculous 365kb/s on a 100MB/s 20MB/s fiber optic line.
the other copy I got only had a problematic HOME CSC that kept on crashing Odin 3.10.6 and 3.10.7

What's your country? The files mentioned in the links contain multi-CSC. Even though it says a certain country it's mainly for all countries in the Indian subcontinent.
Good thing with these roms are they've minimal addon stuff. Mine just came with some Samsung stuff and Microsoft stuff.

I'm in Thailand > < so hotvery hot right now.......44c+ =A=||| , I seach on some website refering that if the phone and rom not match on the region u will not b able to update the phone TTwTT so sad .....
...and yes mine came with that one too sumsung stuff with office stuff TTvTT,......... I accidently forgot to backup stock app and delete it..................... so............... I accidently use sumsung smart switch to rebuild all firmware stock to it's original and good to know that even how much it mess up, I might b able to roll back to it's firmware stock > <'''
ps. out of the topic > < a bit ..................not sure root vs non-root the driver kernal of sumsung itself will b different? the emulator ppsspp seem like not working on all series s7 and edge TTvTT even some old app like games FF tactic was stop for no reason like ppsspp and some app cam that I use..........somes say it has things to do with jit cause by sumsung mess something up ..............TT^TT

Glad to hear you managed to sort things out.
I used to be someone who flashed roms and was fiddling with stuff on the phones some time ago. But now I don't have the time or patience to do those things. And anyways the current TW & S7 doesn't give me a reason to go for a custom ROM.
I might head that way in a year or two, but at the moment only trying to use it as stock.

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Dual Sim Thread - Note 3 n9002

Ok, since the old thread was plagued with paid roms, and it got archived unfortunately, I'm creating a new thread. Let's keep this healthy and clean so the information we post here wont get removed and will help more people in the long run shall we?
Update: May 3, 2014 - Added fix for Caller ID issue!
Update: May 1, 2014 - Added instructions to turn off Google Account Manager after setting up a Google Account
Update: April 9, 2014 - Added instructions to install super su after flashing new firmware and rooting.
Update: Feb 17, 2014 - Added instructions to turn off Google Bookmarks Sync after setting up a Google Account
Useful links:
How to Install/Flash Google Apps on Galaxy Note 3 N9002:
http://marrkdaviid.com/2013/10/install-google-play-on-the-samsung-galaxy-note-3-n9002/#.UsRALJYYYuo
** Please note that if you are using windows 7 to root the device using cf autoroot as instructed in the link above, you will encounter an error halfway thru the flashing process. You need to run odin 1.85 as windows xp to remedy this.
** Please note that after rooting and flashing google apps thru cwm, you will still have root access but the super su app may get lost. If that happens, please install super su from the google play store and everything will be back to normal. - thanks bigstuart for pointing that out
To fix the gapps error we see everytime we turn on the sync shortcut from the pulldown notification bar:
After setting up your google account, go to the settings menu and turn off the google bookmarks sync app. This will fix the google services has stopped error message.
To fix the google account dropping out (having to set up your google account again) turn off the google account manager app from the settings menu. Three users have confirmed this has fixed the issue.
BigStuart was able to finally find a way to fix our caller ID issue. Here's how to get it done:
Edit /system/csc/others.xml
change
Code:
<CscFeature_RIL_CallerIdMatchingDigit>11</CscFeature_RIL_CallerIdMatchingDigit>
to
Code:
<CscFeature_RIL_CallerIdMatchingDigit>-1</CscFeature_RIL_CallerIdMatchingDigit>
and add the following line:
Code:
<CscFeature_Contact_EnableDynCallerIdMatchingDigitWithAutoSim>TRUE</CscFeature_Contact_EnableDynCallerIdMatchingDigitWithAutoSim>
I added that line at the end of the file, before the closing </SamsungMobileFeature> tag.
Then reboot the phone and test caller ID
Lastly, enjoy your dual sim flagship device

n9002
thanks for making a new thread... am really interested in the n9002 but having second thoughts that i have to root it and it will have no samsung warranty. can i ask those who are using it now... (will use it if ever in the philippines)
1. once rooted and google play install do one need to root again if you hard reset your unit?
2. does rooting trip knox?
3. is there much chinese bloatware that you cannot delete?
4. problems encountered the unit being released only in china?
Am in philippines, note 3 dual sim. Without root when i tried install google play knox is tripped. I rooted and running google full service now. Excellent phone buy it

Good thinking on this Thread. The archived thread had some links to removing bloatware and dealing with issues like changing CSC. Wish they didn't delete it. Now we have to re-search and save them all over again.

1. once rooted and google play install do one need to root again if you hard reset your unit?
Shouldn't. I have rooted using RDLV and have reset w/o loosing root.
2. does rooting trip knox?
It did on mine. But there seems to be some who have done it without tripping Knox. Check the forum.
3. is there much chinese bloatware that you cannot delete?
Once you root you can remove almost everything. Search the forum for a list of prog you can safely delete.
4. problems encountered the unit being released only in china?
None really. You can add Google apps, ie Play, Mail, Hangouts, Calendar. If you change the CSC settings, you will be able to set your default search, calender, etc. But read up on how to do that first, you need to back up as it will cause a reboot and loss of data.

Who gives a crap about knox anyway? This is a phone from China, if you will import it to another country, it will not have local warranty. You are not gonna send it to China if ever you need it repaired right? So go ahead and root, flash google apps, and remove all those chinese crapwares.
Im driving right now, but if needed still, i will post a link for a guide on how to do the basics in turning the n9002 to something as close as possible to n9005.

What, the last one got archived!? It was a bit long but got me off to a start and the RIP made it even better. Anyway, I best not mention that.
Well I have checked back because today I just added my 2nd sim. That's 1 Unicom, and 1 China Mobile (some westerners do live in China). It's working and the beauty is: Unicom's data seems good, but China Mobile 's national and international call rates seem better.
I am still interested in getting the best out of my N9002. I am still having a few issues and it's hard to know if they are ROM based or other. Anyway, minor issues, this phone is the best I have owned.

What kind of issues are you getting? I am on stock (mk1) firmware, perhaps we can compare what were experiencing so we can determine if its rom related or not.

Remember is theee are gapps error it usually means the app u running must be uninstalled and reinstall as it could have the old xaxhe prior to installing google.

Fellow dual sim note 3 users, now that samsung's 4.4 update is right around the corner, i am starting to look around how we can get the 4.4 update working on our phones.
Im thinking once samsung releases the 4.4 firmware, it will be on sammobile for sure. I will download and flash it on my phone. Naturally, i will lose root, and google apps. I will have to root and flash google apps again. Question is, where are we going to get the 4.4 gapps package? I found this site and it also contains the 4.3 gapps that was listed in mark daviid's method:
http://www.teamandroid.com/gapps/
What do you guys think?

Great idea. What is your current setup on your phone? I am on ZNUDMK1 Rom ZNUDMJ6 Baseband, rooted using RDLV, 4.3, Gapps installed, but I hear that the new ROM's have made it impossible to root for now.
Will it be worth while to do the 4.4 update?
Could someone miraclously discover how to enable lte? Maybe possible?

Im on mk1 rom and mj6 baseband too. I rooted using cf autoroot and flashed gapps 4.3 thru odin. Yes, its impossible to root the newer roms now without tripping knox. Cf autoroot still works but it trips knox - which i couldnt care less about anyway.
I will definitely upgrade to 4.4. I think the android runtime is really something to look forward to.

Good for you!! I agree, screw KNOX, mine is tripped too but I use Wanam Xposed. I installed my gapps using ADB and remounting System. Did it the hard way, should have thought about odin!!
Post your experience when 4.4 comes out, lots of lurkers and people will want to know!! Good luck!!:good:

SAMMOBILE doesn't have US Firmware?

Hi folks,
I've been having lots of problems with my GT-P5113 (Tab2 10.1 wifi, US version). After several custom ROMs didn't solve my issues I figured I would return it to absolute stock via ODIN. I'm reasonably experienced with ODIN and other tools, but not an expert.
To get the stock firmware, I went to the SAMMOBILE site and made an account. However, when I enter my model number (p5113 or variants on this theme), all I get are firmwares for Slovakia or Canada or Macedonia and the like. No sign of US firmware.
Am I doing something wrong?
Please help me get a stock US version firmware I can ODIN. For me moment I'm using the RIPPER ROM but I'd like to get full stock for a trial. I've tried using Kies, but... well it sucks. It's asking me for the serial number, and the rom doesn't show it. the rom actually thinks it is a 5110...
Any help appreciated!
They usually do for most devices but for some reason neither they nor Samsung updates have it for the 5113. The Canadian one shouldn't hurt but no guarantees there.

How annoying!
I eventually got my serial number via Phone Info SAMSUNG app. I put on Ripper ROM, got it up and running, and it seems to be mostly doing OK for my kids games. Eventually looked up serial number in there. For now I'll stick with it. It thinks I'm a 5110, though... I guess I should edit the buildprop.
Marc
PS: If anyone has a link to a site with the stock 5113 US firmware, I'd appreciate it!
Sigh. I thought I found a link, from this page:
http://androidromupdate.com/2013/12...sung-galaxy-tab-2-10-1-gt-p5113-p5113ueucmk3/
But the link they give is dead... takes to "rapid gator" and says file not found, do I want to pay for an account...

Yep, all ROMs for the 5110 will work on the 5113 with no problems. Same for 3110/3113. They stopped making 5113 and 3113 ROMs a while ago.

Also,
Samsung rolled out the firmware for the following countries. The firmware which are unbranded or not locked to any carrier, no matter of which country or region, can be flashed on any Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 GT-P5113 model.

This page says that the files are universal, so you should use the Cellular South file. I've seen the same thing on multiple pages. If for some reason you cannot download the file from sammobile, here is a link to download the file. http://terafile.co/353308769276/XAR-P5113UEUCMK3-20131209190549.zip. It is from the same page that has the link to RapidGator (samsung-updates.com)
The ONLY difference is with the IR Blaster. Thats all Ffffffolks!
Thanks JRC2! Good info there.
Another kind XDA user sent me a private link to the files, and it's good to see a public link for Terafile. For some reason I can never get that Terafile link to work... The page loads, I click to download, nothing happens other than it shows me paid options. It says a free, slow download is available but I was never able to get it to start downloading. Perhaps something about the way I've got my browser configured...
Anyway, I'm good to go and hopefully future readers can get the terafile link to work for them, or download from SAMMOBILE now that which one to use is cleared up. Thanks to this wonderful community.

[Q] Note Edge SM-N915G

Does anyone know where i can find ANY custom roms for the SM-915G? Ever since I've brought the Note Edge, I feel like it needs alot of enhancements as I absolutely love using custom roms.
My advice is keep wait for more developers . Same here "G"
Same boat as you both , 915G waiting for some good custom rom developers to release their amazing roms
Me too. 915G stock firmware + root + CWM from this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-edge/general/easy-steps-stock-odin-n915tuvu1anjl-sm-t2943993. Now can not pair with my Moto 360 anymore as bluetooth problem. SuperSU takes very slow to response. Installing any softwares on Play Store or apk files are the same, it took 5-10 minutes to complete installed. Boring... Waiting to a custom rom from developer to save me. Now, it is a nightmare...

Hello. I bought a Samsung N915G from Saudi Arabia and has not in setting European languages (German, Roamania ...). Please give me details how to proceed to install another version from European soft (N915FY) on my phone. Thank you in advance.
As we have no Rom's to flash, I decided to try and flash the most recent no carrier firmware from SamMobile. (N915GXXU1ANK4)
I was on the Original Vodafone firmware and I have to say the non-bloat version is much snappier. I needed to factory reset and set everything up again. However now I feel like the phone is performing more like it should with theses specifications.

Root for Canadian S8+ SM-G955W variants (Working Root Method)

So there's quite a bite of confusion for the canadian SM-G955W variant . Was wondering if anyone can clear some stuff up for me.
Is there a Root method, for the SM-G955W S8+ ... ??
and can u link it if there is...
None of the CF Auto root **** seems to be working . any info would help.
sorry for being a noob...
*UPDATE* , ok so , Threw some research on here and on youtube i have managed to Root the s8+ sm-g955w canadian Rogers variant (rwc)
For all My fellow Canadians , follow this video to a T and it will be easy. ->
Also, Head over to sam mobile. i have linked the SM-G955W S8+ firmware for u , This is your back up , just to be safe, (nothing happend to me all i needed from this firmware package was the CSC an the systme image from the AP file) - >
[url]https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s8/SM-G955W/[/URL]
Be sure to Follow EVERYTHING this guy does, Honestly took me 2 hours , to pause every 30 seconds to just make sure over an over that everything was correct, So , with that said, If i need to show proof on my phone that this works here yah go
Root proof SM-G955W canadian variant https://imgur.com/gallery/Tgz4o
Admins please lemme kno if im not supposed to link anything i.e. youtube videos, please delete it, i apologize ahead of time,
with that said, Theres no more confusion , the SM-G955U root method works for SM-G955W (ROGERS)(RWC) carriers, havent tried with bell or not even sure if it matters tbh, .
Cons so far :
1.The phone will not show charging nor charge when it reaches 80 % battery life, (SMALL ISSUE TO ME)
2.And im not sure if the CSC file is whats making my bixby Fudge up. But im going to try to flash the CSC file from (XAC) variant from sammobile. an see if that fixes it, or if someone knows that Bixby is done when you root , please comment so i can include that in the cons, lol
I tried messin around a little. After a few apps. One of them read this
Root https://imgur.com/gallery/ScXsQ
Im going to assume this is the reason bixby wont work either. ??
Thanks XDA staff an devs, for all the support an help when i asked. Fu*kin bangin job on this community

So there's quite a bite of confusion for the canadian SM-G955W variant . Was wondering if anyone can clear some stuff up for me.
Is there a Root method, for the SM-G955W S8+ ... ??
and can u link it if there is...
None of the CF Auto root **** seems to be working . any info would help.
sorry for being a noob...

Check this. It is not autoroot and takes some work. A lot of people have issues. Be careful and follow the directions.

im not 100 percent about carriers , but the model of the phone is what matters just before you start the rooting process head over to sammobile, an make sure they have the TELUS variant, u need to match your radios, ect. youll see in the video, theres, a files you need to extract an flash to the phone with flashfire, thats the file you need for your carrier or else youll be stuck with a us variant an if that happens i think you may get hit with roaming charges , but other than the carrier bro, im positive u can do this same root method if sammobile has your correct files, btw, u may wanna start the sammobile downloads an hour before u start the root, lol , i made the mistake an the free download speed for sammobile is no more than 15mbps so even with my 1000 mbsp "gigabyte speeds" with rogers it took almost 2 hours, lol gl bro, an enjoy.. p.s folllllow the instuctions to a t bro, pause the video as much as u need, u dont want a paper weight,

Before I root Rogers S8+, has anyone fixed this 80% battery charge and Bixby
I have yet to find anything on the web Google or YouTube on my situation. I have a Rogers Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus SM G955W and I keep getting the update pop up for Oreo. I do not want to upgrade as I'm fine with nougat. I made sure before all of this in developer mode auto updates was off. One day the pop-up came up and I accidentally pressed the update button. I quickly paused it and it's at 2% but it keeps popping up to keep downloading. I have backed up my full phone but I'm looking to find out how to backup the OS so I don't have to use a computer.
I don't what to update at all.
There must be a way to delete or hide this notification.

No fix for the battery yet. As its a Samsung image file. So not sure when or how it will be patched.
Also Bixby is still not working. (I fu*kin hate Bixby) use ok Google lol.
Other than that. Once you root. You will not receive update notifications at all to update phone.

Sampwnd or samfail are the only 2 methods for snapdragon.
OK thanks. That's too bad north America didn't get the other variant. The root method is system root Might not end up rooting
i have a g950w bell variant ad ive been on Oreo beta1 g950u and going back to g950u 7.0 with root
ive converted from g950w to g950u and back and not tripped knox so far
I've used this method and worked fine with my g955w phone. Carriers don't matter, just the model of the device

Not being able to use most other roms does suck but people with exynos have asked for pcr so it seems to do ok :good:

It is a very common but completely incorrect notion that rooting will trip Knox. Root has nothing to do with phones turning 0x1. The only thing that can make that happen is flashing and booting an unsigned kernel. Since that is impossible on locked bl it's impossible to trip

R720XXU2AOJ3 / R720OXA2AOJ3
R720XXU2BPA4 / R720OXA2BPA4
R720XXU2EPK5 / R720OXA2EPK5

Enjoy it!
Are any of these ROMs UK or EU versions? I flashed the last one and Samsung pay doesn't work in the UK for me.
@shenery Samsung Pay unfortunately doesn't work in the UK full stop.
Can someone tell me where is the tread that explains how i chose the correct firmware version and how i flash it? This is the first time I'm interested in the forum of the Gear S2 and it looks interesting. Thanks!
sorry to necropost, but do you have, or know where i could get the firmware for the G735V? Im looking specifically for R735VVRU3DRC1. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Too late?

its never too late to try to help someone out irrespective of the outcome. That being said, Sammy rolled out an update that fixed the issue. Watch has been back in business for a few months now. Super happy kiddo! He was so let down when it started effing up. Thanks for responding man, sincerely.

The latest is R732XXU2FSI1
Thank you bbsc much appreciated this isn't in the list. Mine isn't updating automatically via the android app. So I'm assuming there's no fix for this other than using Odin as I've found no other mention.
I'll try to find the latest is this the 6mb one that updates battery life.
As i think I'll need to go through all the others to get to the latest version, if Odin is the way to go.
Thanks for the help.

All known R732 firmware versions are listed here.
The watch should autoupdate up to R732XXU2FRC1
I think, it's possible to find R732XXU2FSD1 for free over the internet.
And definitely, it's possible to get R732XXU2EPK5 from here,
Good luck.
Thank you for the helpful info, the files above Ive downloaded but they are in zips and password protected has anyone the password to decompress.
Many thanks again
