what is the latest Firmware out for tmobile note 5

HI There. Its not always easy to tell but how can I determine that I am running the latest firmware/baseband for my tmob note 5.
I currently have N920tuvu1a0ge
as there been an update since.

Yes, just go into setting> aboutphonr and software update and you should get ~3 or 4 updates lol
Unless you're rooted. Then the latest is OJ5 I think

I'm rooted so I can't do that

I had that problem too, along with lots of lag. The reason is because you have the Noble kernel. Flash SkyHigh instead as the Noble kernel is very buggy.

I'll keep this updated with newer versions as they're released. Unfortunately I wasn't fast enough to grab the older ones so if anyone would like to donate them to the cause, that would be great.

@iBowToAndroid Does this Stock_Downgrade firmware actually work to downgrade to PC5? https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24533100289590563

Yes... it also enabled video calling and wifi hotspot for me. The tethering/hotspot menu setting is not there, but the dropdown notification settings can have the hotspot setting added. Havent tried the video calling feature. Also the dialer codes do not work in the ##DATA# format.

I think it's the 2nd. So the first OTA. I'm not sure you can downgrade though, that's why I was asking @iBowToAndroid

Yes you can downgrade... but is has its pros and cons. It is not the same as the sprint ota. It has its pros and cons. Some of which I mentioned above. I used Odin to flash the file, but had to delete the MD5 extension for Odin to acknowledge it.

Man I didn't even see your post above. Is the battery life improved when going back to it? Ever since PD3 my battery life hasn't been the same.

I haven't charged my phone fully since yesterday, but it certainly hasn't gotten any worse. The icon for LTE has changed to a 4G icon with this downgrade. Thank you for the link uploaded by iBowToAndroid, its great to have hotspot working again.

Its not the firmware that came with the phone originally. It's the first OTA. I downloaded it. It's only the AP. No BL, CP, or CSC. So those will still be from PD3. I installed it via Odin and am setting the phone back up right now. So far everything is working ok. Would be awesome to have the bootloader and everything else that goes with it, but if it works it works!

I haven't been able to successfully downgrade to PB5. Maybe someone else will have better luck.
Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk

The link I posted above is legit. I cannot get the PB5 firmware to take, I keep getting bootloops, but the uploader has had success downgrading all but the bootloader.
The PC5 package totally works though. Bootloader and all. I just successfully Odin'ed all 4 tars back to PC5 and will remain on PC5 until Samsung and Sprint can get their heads out of their asses when it comes to the poor battery life introduced with the PD3 update.

Nice! Thanks for the find!
And got a bootloop on the PB5 firmware too. I'm assuming it's a corrupted upload.
Does anyone else have PB5 that we can download? I'm aching for my hotspot back. Thanks!

I suggested that to the uploader and he's convinced the file is fine. Who am I to say, I guess...

Will it be fine to go back to PB5 fill stock using Odin To Flash Back? Or will it fail?

The AP, CP, CSC files all flash fine, the BL will not. And you may get bootloops. I haven't seen anyone other than the original uploader get it to boot up properly.

if you have APH1 you can now flash API3 to have unlocked g935u

So i had taken the update for my verizon g935v which updated to APH1 which disabled you from going to the 935u... well 935u received a new update. API3 is now installed on my phone. Heres the screenshot. check it out!

No, if you don't want to root, you can have stock u firmware without root, but you're not going to have WiFi calling or volte without root, at least you had to have root before haven't checked on the new firmware.

If we update from PH1 without root can we go to PH3 and follow the root process

On sammobile there is a USA version and also a USA (Verizon) version. Is there any difference in the files?

Vvm I think that's it.

I dont think this is a U firmware issue, I had this issue on rooted PH1 too.

Hi, when you say unlocked, you mean SIM unlocked?
As far as I know Verzon´s s7 edge comes factory sim unlocked or do I have to flash this firm to hav it sim unlocked?

Getting mine too

Hey guys, I have a question I hope someone can help me out with. I have the sm-g935v which I flashed to sm-g935u. I'm considering flashing it to sm-g935t since the unlocked firmware will be getting quarterly updates which is unfortunate, and I would like to use samsung cloud, FM radio, and now Nougat. Would I have to factory reset my phone back to the verizon firmware before flashing tmobile's, or can I just flash from my current unlocked firmware straight to tm? Prior to Nougats release, I had downloaded the latest tmobile firmware and tried to flash it with no success so not sure what I did wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

OTA
Won't taking the OTA update certain partitions we don't necessarily want to update? Like the BL, for example? Could this prevent rolling back to 6.0.1 if there are issues? Or does this not matter since we don't have an unlocked BL anyway? Thanksssss

Apparently I do not see that update on my phone as of now

The update is for T-Mobile users using the T firmware. You are on the US Unlocked firmware.

I got this also and updated this morning. Very smooth and loving it! Did OTA update and one thing i noticed after updating i wasn't able to clear my cache like before. When i power down, hold all 3 buttons (power, home and up key) get a screen more like a warning saying installing other firmware's or roms can damage my device. Not the exact wording but similar. Has anyone else tried doing that and got the same warning msg?

Thanks for the information. Much appreciated. Do you know if they are gonna update the unlocked firmware (935u). Sure is nice without the bloat and the great battery life.

Ironic, I just went back to PH1 last night to resolve some quirks with the T-mobile software I was having. Guess I will leave it alone and wait for the OTA to hit.

No update available yet...

Would love to have the flash files for Odin for a clean install

Ditto.
Can't wait to flash my 935U to Verizon. Dat Wifi Calling and VVM.

Probably going to be a while unless someone gets the update soon

Verizon Upgrade tool, (nevermind, it formatted and when to marshmallow)

I don't have anything yet.

Ugh...

Is it pretty safe to say if we're on the T-Mobile Nougat we will need to do the "full stock firmware" and flash via odin?

You need to be on stock software period...
Don't use that link though. I jumped the gun on that, it's just the beta downloads.

Will we be able to pick up the OTA if we're still running the Verizon Nougat beta?

Just got mine. Wiped and installed and upgraded.

Which version were you running previously? MM or Nougat beta?

No OTA yet here.

I have the Nougat update coming through on my phone right now. Have been running fully stock, latest OTA. Download started on its own.

Does FoxFi tethering still work?
