Hey guys im new to note5 my girl got one today and this is what it came with. But im not seeing any info on this version. Am i missing something? Thanks guys!
This is just the most recent update. Proceed as normal. It was merely a "security patch" supposedly. But haven't heard much of anything different.

We can't. No Kernel source has been released, and Android M needs a new bootloader which is unique for each model.

this is why we need friends that work at Samsung that work in the basement. To leak such files.

I think most Samsung's employees want to keep their job...
G920F it's identical to G920I for example, so I think that it shouldn't be that difficult

thats a thought in mind i had. i am tempted to try to odin flash it. it wouldnt hurt to try. my device reads as 920F but i dont know if odin will detect it that way based on the build prop. but its worth a shot to try. hell it may work. ive seen stranger things occur..especially with my phone.

Yes. If it doesn't work. It just won't work...it either will flash or wont flash.....if anything..I keep a stock bootloader and rom on a flash drive with odin and a custom kernel and a copy of philz recovery for odin for emergencies.
So, did anyone tried?

I was going to but after reading thru the threads, I'm gonna hold off for official release (which should be soon for European S6) becasues apparently the battery drains from an unofficial upgrade path is pretty serious. And some people are getting force closes. I really really want to tho, so I may. I mean KNOX isnt important to me. Still debating.
Since I hadn't seen it posted yet.....

I am not sure, I was on the latest MM update from Verizon.
My phone got wet a few months back and my NFC has not been able to turn on since. Also, I was also having issues adding fingerprints though I could use fingerprints that were in there before. I thought maybe doing an ODIN flash may help atleast verify it isnt software related.

Trying smart switch as I hear it can load the stock firmware. The serial # (aka: IMEI #) I put in says the number is incorrect. Do I remove some of the first digits? It starts with 99000...

Not coming up. Any idea when the TAR will be released?
I found a serial number in "about phone", it's different from Imei and I don't find it in anywhere else :/. I think TAR comes this week.
EDIT
Odin tar released today, hope it help your bootloop problem

That's the exact same file as mine. There's nothing wrong with the one I uploaded. If you bootloop, it's unrelated. Try data wipe

When you posted the Mega link, I thought that you were saying that that was also an OK7 file, same as mine.

Sigh. No, there's nothing wrong with the file.
You always bootloop when downgrading a major version. Have to factory reset in recovery and then you'll be fine.

So I have a galaxy s6 original from att, I could never get it to root. I just switched over to tmobile, I have unlocked the phone and installed the newest update. Still will not root. What am I missing? What the hell is going on, there is no way I have the only unrootable s6. Side note spell check does not like "unrootable". Any help would be appreciated, Thanks in advance.

It seems like you have SM-G920A. It is the only S6 that "not" rootable.

Then what phone would you suggest I buy that I can easily root and start learning how to customize my phone. I am very eager to learn all of this because I see the future of pnones getting worse when it come to security from the companies.
