Ok so back ground first.
I rooted my sprint note 5 SM-N920P about 2 years ago. I used MOAR rom v 2.1 OK3 With 3.10.61-BeastMode-N920P-1.5-ROAR kernal for 5.1.1. I loved it and never had any issues until about a month ago. I started getting "couldn't download" errors on all mms (group and Picture messages). It'll ring and keep giving me the error every 10 seconds for an hour. So I tried fixing my APN and after trying like 10 different ones it still doesn't work. So I was just going to upgrade to 7.0, but nothing I flash works they just hang at the note 5 screen for hours. longest I let one sit was 2 hours.
So my question is can someone tell me what I need to flash or odin to upgrade to 7.0 rooted or how to get to stock unrooted so I can update and reroot with 7.0 custom roms?
Sorry if this is in the wrong place. I have spent all day trying to google and forum search for the answer, only to come up empty handed.
TLDR : Can't get mms and want to upgrade from 5.1.1 oi6 to 7.0 qc5 Thanks for any help I can get.

Hello all,
I don't know if this is a unique problem or not. I have a rooted note 2 and can't upgrade out of my JZO54K.L900VPAMA7 BUILD
My Baseband is L900VPPAMC2
MY ANDROID VERSION IS 4.1.2
I get a system update message and it shows a little green Android Bot laying down with an error message when I try to download any updates.
I have gone back to stock 3 times and still can't get out of it. What can i do to get out of this rom version?
I tried downloading the MC2 rom and it tried flashing it and got into a bootloop and had to start all over again. I have searched everywhere for even the stock version to flash with Odin, but no luck. I want to upgrade to 4.3, but i keep getting stuck with deadend links.
Please help me
Got a notification this morning that there was a new update available for KitKat. I do not know what the update is as I postponed it. I am currently running KitKat 4.4.2 Kernel version 3.4.0. The build is D80020c. I am rooted. I have no other information except that it shows that an update is pending but it will not tell me what the update is and I do not know where to find out what it is.
Anyone have any ideas as to what this is? I am concerned because the last time an update rolled out, it soft bricked my rooted phone.
I spoke with tech support at AT&T and they claim that they do not know what it is and suggested that I call LG for an answer.....

Don't install it, it jacked up my phone. I was running the rooted mixed partition D80020c and I can't boot or get into download mode now. All I get it a constant reboot back to recovery. Cannot install another ROM, cannot restore a backup. My daughter was playing with my phone and pushed to continue with the install and now I'm trying to unscrew it.

Is there any way to force a not install or deny it? The only option I have is to postpone the install and after 4 hours, it will run again and continue to run every 4 hours unless I find a way to break the cycle. How do I force a no install option?
That is what happened to me last time with the "q" update. I postponed the install (no option to not take it) and it installed itself after 4 hours when I left my phone on one night. I woke up to a bricked phone.....

I don't know how to permanently disable the update, but I'm sure there's a way. As info, I was able to easily fix my phone with the help of this thread posted by @thecubed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696. I didn't read it all, but this might be what disables the update.
I'm not rooted. I took the latest update and all is fine. It's google+ fixes and Google wallet support. It actually let me set up tap & pay! I'll have to go somewhere to try it out.

I got the notification too but figured that it would probably screw things up since I'm rooted and running TWRP so I did a little searching and came across this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50454408&postcount=3 . It's been a few hours since I changed the setting and haven't seen the update notification again although AT&T pushed the update into CACHE/FOTA sometime this morning.
Well scratch that, the notification just came back. I'll try freezing it now.
Well if rooted just use TB to freeze software update. I am also running a mixed partition D80020c. I am on Straight Talk AT&T. Before rooting I tried taking the official OTA of KitKat but for some reason you can't enter an APN type so I couldn't get or send MMS. So I flashed back to the D firmware,rooted,added custom recovery,entered the APN type and then flashed the modified C firmware. You could also use Root Freezer instead of Titanium Backup to freeze
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!
Hey I am in huge problem right now because I have just upgraded my Sm-n915g to marshmallow from kitkat but it just lasts about 2 or 3 minutes until it restarts. And it happens to me every time. I tried flashing lollipop but it runs the bootlogo and it just wont jump to setup. What should i do in order so that i can use my phone correctly. Thanks.

You may go back to KK, but no chance with Lollipop . Kitkat had a new bootloader, there is no downgrade possible.
Make a full wipe, flash 5.1.1 swith Odin, again a full wipe, and it should be fine. MM is pain, many people have the reboot-issue!
Edit, Sorry, Can this be moved to Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting. Thanks in advance.
Hi, I need a little help.
My wifes S5 is rooted via safestrap running on RicksRomv19.5. It seemed to be working great since I purchased it about 2 years ago. Well recently her phone won't come out of 3g, and then her phone keeps randomly turning off and when it restarts it shows a significant loss of battery. I tried replacing the Sim card to no success, it stays in the "Please wait well your phone is being activated." Never completes. So I put the old one back in and it works without 4g. I'm wondering if the Rom and Modem are causing issues being that its still 4.4. I have a replacement battery on the way just in case thats the issue. I'd like to try updating it to 5.0 or higher and upgrade the modem to see if it fixes any of the mentioned issues. I'm fairly capable of flashing and upgrading roms but havent followed any of the S5 stuff since I still use a Note 3. What do I need to do to get it upgraded? Thanks
