[Completed] Flashed Jasmine, working perfectly for weeks. Tried hotspot, broke my data! Advice??

Hi all,
As stated in title, I've been running Jasmine for weeks pretty flawlessly, and I chose to attempt the mobile hotspot (unlimited data, custom ROM, was hoping to circumvent somehow and get data for my tablet on the train), now it's busted!
The phone freaked out a bit when I tried to connect my tablet and kept connecting/disconnecting repeatedly till I said forget it and shut it off. Didn't realize till later in the day that my data was b0rked. I've pulled the battery, wiped all the caches, erased the partition, and flashed Jasmine again and still nothing. Called Verizon tech support just to verify that nothing strange was going on on my account with Mobile Hotspot (like a data freeze or something, I have no idea just trying everything), and went through every step they could offer. Of course I didn't mention it was rooted, so they weren't much help.
You would think that erasing the partition and flashing a new ROM onto it, after erasing the caches, would totally have fixed the problem, right? Any ideas about how to fix? I'll gladly do more research, but through Googling and searching multiple forums I haven't found any good advice for the problem, so I figured I'd ask people more knowledgable than I am.

Hi
Thanks for using XDA Assist.
Does WiFi tether work on Stock ROM or some other ROM ?
Please check that up first .
Also the device model you have given is for Note 4 Verizon. Whereas the firmware is for Note 3 Verizon . If you have installed Note 3 ROM on Note 4 then it might cause issues.
The best thing will be to sign up on forums and ask the developer in the Q/A thread. He would be able to provide better support.

Have a good day !

Strange, I have a note 3, and in the settings (after re-flashing Jasmine) it says SM-N910V. If that's the Note 4 model, that's all sort of messed up. Thanks for the tip, I will post there.

Thanks for reporting back

Downgrading Note Pro 12.2 Verizon from 5.1.1 to 4.4.2?

HI,
I've updated the Verizon version of the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 and I really don't like it. There's too many instability issues that I haven't seen before! I rely heavily on the S-Note and it keeps crashing on me after a few minutes when it is opened up. I can write for a bit but then it just stops working and brings me back to the home screen. The other problem is the SD Card. I never had an issue with it before, but I am now! Sometimes it goes missing when I go into a file manager looking for a document. And it occasionally freezes up!
Oh, and the best part? I like the fact that Samsung has added the "Galaxy Apps" in this Lollipop version like it is on my Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910F), BUT IT'S ALL IN DUTCH LANGUAGE!!!
And this is suppose to be an American model with the preference language set US English?? Go figure...
I never had this problem before with KitKat 4.4.2, and I want it back!
Now I've tried using ODIN 3.10.7, 3.07, and 3.09, but I can't get it to connect. It keeps saying "added!! removed!!" when I try to use Home-Volume Down-Power" to reboot in Odin mode.
So does anyone have any suggestions on how I can downgrade?

Did you use the OTA 5.1.1 version that was pushed out by Verizon? I took it last week and this beast is way more stable, no crashes, the SD Card works properly (I have a 128GB card) and no language problems. Try resetting your tablet and getting the OTA (again).

No, I didn't get it by OTA. I did it through KIES. I'm an American ex-pat living in the UK for the past few years and I had this shipped to me from family back in Florida. It doesn't seem that the OTA would work at all and the only way I could get the update is through KIES.
As for resetting, that's what I was trying to do. When I do a "factory" reset, it puts 5.1.1. back on again plus the Verizon repair app is not giving me any joy since it's doing the same and placing lollipop 5.1.1, which is why I'm going through ODIN mode to place the original ROM back onto it that I've downloaded from SamMobile's website. However, as I mentioned, Odin on all versions are giving me "ADDED!! REMOVED!!".
What I really find so strange is that the Verizon Update/Repair app will re-flash with no problem; but when trying to use Odin, it won't connect. Can someone give me a clue on what's going on with that??
It would also mentioned I'm using Odin on Windows 7 64 bit and I've used separate computers so that the drivers for KIES and Verizon Update App doesn't clash, yet I'm still getting the same messages from Odin.
OR am I missing something else??
By the way, Sammy's Galaxy Apps is still in Dutch!!

Did you ever get this figured out? I, myself, am having a terrible time with the lollipop upgrade on my 905V. I've tried to ODIN back to 4.2.2 with no luck. ODIN fails every time I try to push one of the older versions to the tablet.
I am like you where I had to use ODIN to upgrade to 5.1.1. I was rooted and I had done a few other things which required me to factory reset a couple times after using ODIN to install an original factory package.
It is possible we are S.O.L. There is simply no DEV support for a device few people have, I don't expect much.
My only shot to try next is to see if putting one of the older versions in a specific folder will give me an option in Kies to revert back.
There is always a chance someone will come along with the answer we need.

Lollipop haywire
I to have the Verizon Note Pro and recently did the update to lollipop and is having a horrible experience... The system seems to be unstable all my apps are crashing a lot... Ive tried to revert back to 4.2.2 using Odin as well but no luck. Ive factory reset numerous times... Ive even reinstalled lollipop several times, with no luck. If any one has any insight on what this problem is or have anyway of going about fixing the crashing, please let me know...

Has this ever been figured out? When I first got my NP 12.2 on verizon I rooted it, but then I OTA updated it, like a dummy, to 5.1.1. I want to flash back down to 4.4 or whatever version it WAS so I can root 4.4 then update to a 5.1.1 or 6.0.1 rooted rom. * Any help would be appreciated.

In the same boat
Any help on this? I would really like to downgrade my NP12.2 to Kitkat to root it.
I pretty much a novice to Android, but have 20+ years with PC and MAC. This doesn't seem like it should be that big of a deal. Thanks for any help!

Samsung Galaxy S6

Year ago came out update from Android 6 to Android 7. After that problems started. Phone wasn’t rooted or anything else. After the update first was problem with applications - crashing. Then i made an factory reset and that didn’t helped because after that chrases system apps so i restored system to previous version but problem stayed and even after that came out problem with freezing and restarting so i gave up and bought iPhone, but now i’m programming something for android and need my old phone, so i again tried with official Marshmallow, Nougat os but problem stayed so I tried with Lineage 14,15, but with no success. Now I installed Nexus Oreo and little bit is better - more rarely apss chrases and phone restarts but sometimes still so it is still annoying and problematical. Did anyone have similar symptoms- problems or some advice if I forgot something to try? P.S sorry for my bad English grammar

Need Help Please, SM-G920T — Galaxy S6

Hello everyone, I am no expert but have installed Rom's for at least a year now. Mainly on my Note 3 but I just switched to my wife's SM-G920T — Galaxy S6. Late last night I was playing around with Kernels on DAMUZ+v4+EPH2 rom. Well one of the kernels has switched everything to be reversed and I can't find a cure. What I mean is in TWRP in order to install I have to hit the wipe button. If I hit wipe it will choose install, if I hit backup it chooses restore and visa versa. I have usually cured any problems in the pass by flashing Odin firmware to start over but it's not fixing the problem. Everything has to be opposite side of the screen to choose the correct choice. After flashing firmware G920TUVU5EPK5_TMB5EPK5_TMB_T-Mobile_USA_6.0.1 odin passes, it reboots and everything looks fine until the phone boots up. On setup of Wifi once again everything is reversed. I don't know what else to do, please any suggestion's are welcomed?
I found the solution by Google search, and someone else had the same issue. The fix for me was the exact same,
Update: Resolved by flashing the stock Marshmallow using Odin, then using *#2663# to reload the TSP firmware. This resolved the issue.

Need help with my S6!

Hello there,
Please forgive me if i posted this thread on the wrong place.
-I would've not posted a thread here unless this got serious, so i own a Samsung Galaxy S6, it's 1 year old phone, when i first got it, i used it normally like everyone else and had no problem with it, but my curiosity got me to root the phone, i still did not get any problem with it until i chose to add a ROM. I used NNE 5.1 S8 port and it was working well until it got my phone broken somehow.
-My phone started acting really strange after 2 months of activity of that new ROM, my phone just started restarting randomly and it got me worried, i thought it's an application problem so i first just factory reset it. It seemed it was not the problem on an application, so i chose to change my firmware to a stock one. I searched up recently on the newest firmware for S6 and i found out it's: XEF (France) , PDA (AP): G920FXXU6ERC1 and CSC : G920FOXA6ERC1 on 2018-03-22. I Downloaded 4 files: BL,AP,CP,CSC , and i found out about PIT on one of the posts in this forum (Filename: SM-G920F-ZEROFLTE_EUR_OPEN.pit).
-Before i flashed with Odin, i wiped System, Data, Cache and Dalvrik Cache. The firmware worked well but after 1 hour it started doing the same thing but now differently. It happend to me only 1 time that it froze up on an application, but i think that is just an app problem. The main problem is that when i lock my screen, i cannot unlock it anymore, it just freezes there until it restarts after a short period of time. After the restart, it just keeps going, restarts, asks for pin, restarts and so on.
I tried removing the sim card and putting it back in, did not work.
I tried Safe mode, still same.
Model of phone: SM-G920F
Current firmware: XEF (G920FXXU6ERC1)
Android version: Nougat (7.0)
If you can help me, or you know something about this problem, please repost here, i would be really grateful since this is my only phone

How could samsung switch possibly help?
I did flash it with different versions already, but no luck :/.
I've been praying a lot for this lately but it is not working lol

Please Bump this!

try doing this.
1) go here: https://updato.com/
2) choose download 2 roms. 1 nougat and another marshmallow (to my knowledge, stock roms are one file. no more splits and unless otherwise stated... no need for pit)
3) first flash nougat using oden
4) try the phone for a few some time.
if after a set amount of time, phone works fancy and no issues present then it's solved.
if not... install marshmallow. then try again.
if all this fails then...
install nougat. as soon as possible afterwards install twrp.
boot into twrp and just leave it there. my twrp locks after a while and screen goes dark until user interaction (just like it's supposed to)
if the same thing happens then its a hardware issue... probably... (i have had my main board fail... kinda similar not similar issue... hope you dont have the same issue and that its just software related)
good luck.

In my case every time there was an update available it would download the whole firmware and by doing so you would get the most fresh and updated version. Also it updates every partition to match
