My wife and I. She ordered one for me for a v day gift.
Dev will be slow at first so if this is a first android for anyone, be patient and help however you can. We don't have a device so no CWM or custom kernels yet. Once we do things will start rolling.
<insert witty signature here>

First android noob here. Will have mine Friday. What can be done to help? Or just keep an eye out for talented devs on these boards and do whatever they say?

This isn't development - when a dump actually takes place, a thread can be placed in Development, not before.

Unfortunatly, I didn't have any luck with this method.
I installed adb drivers from the windows version of Samsung Kies. (You can download it here)
Adb connects, files are pushed, but for some reason, no root.
Tried with Superoneclick as well and same no luck.

I am still going go try tomorrow.
No promises

Didn't work for me either and it even messed up my phone. Can't access my internal storage from PC now! Tried restart on phone but still didn't work. The computer doesn't even detect it. But one thing i haven't tried is to restart the computer (didn't have time) so not sure if it's the phone or the PC.

Don't post system dumps from other carriers/countries in AT&T Note forum. Despite what you think - it's not the same. It may have the same hardware, but software wise those are very different firmwares and attempting to flash cooked roms from another carrier "will* cause problems.
- Telus version has worknig NFC, AT&T Note has it disabled in the firmware
- LTE has 16 bands and the ones, used and enabled from Telus are not the same as the AT&T version
- AT&T Note has embedded software configuration settings for voice GSM, data HSPA+, LTE networks, voicemail, etc'. All those are very different from Telus and there is no telling how easy it'd be to manually restore all those AT&T settings to assure fully functional operation of all radios
- AT&T Note has a lot of bloatware, Telus has less and different stuff
- Each carriers has customized their firmware according to their security needs. Protection may not be the same, and bootloader & radios firmwares may not be the same on AT&T and Telus.
List goes on. It's a bad idea to post here system dump from another carrier & country.

That doesn't mean the Telus dump won't be useful, and despite the AT&T in the title of the forum, this is also the forum for his device (forum name should really be I717, imo). Go ahead and post the dump if you can; just make sure it's clear that it's a Telus and not an AT&T dump.

Well not really. The system dump will definitely help with development of the ATT Note. Im was running Rogers based roms on both of my skyrockets. No ATT bloat and NFC enabled. Having the system dump will help devs build a compatible rom for the ATT note as well. And pretty much everything you listed as being different was built into the roms I had on both skyrockets. Only thing that had to be done was APN settings

Judging by your signature you have a serious problem, my friend. I think you may require rehab, or at least an intervention. I have a friend in FA (flashaholics anonymous) who can help get you started.

[Q] Atrix Version OLYLA_U4_0.50.0

Hey,
I'm from Brazil and I just got an Atrix from a local operator.
The version is that one from the title.
I was just wondering if i can flash any other sbf (so I can eventually flash a gingerblur or something like that).
Thanks!
Second it, since I would probably be getting the same version (I'm from Argentina), Were you able to get root access?
i'll try it right now..
i just got the phone yesterday!!!
I'll post the results...
Can't root with superoneclick
it do not accept the OLYFR_U4_1.26 spf...
i think, by now, i'm stuck!!
Try the GladRoot script... not super 1 click... by all accounts the Atrix dev teams think that's a bad solution. That's a different fw version than the bell or at&t, so it still may not work.
Bump, did it work?
you can't flash a sbf from another carrier. if you did, you just lost your phone for being impatient and not reading the forums.
If these versions are so different and carried by others might the bootloaders be unlocked or are these operators from south america subsidiaries of att?

Strange...that version string is similar to the Canadian Bell Atrix (OLYLA_U4_0.37.4).

I know it would problably not work... I read about it...
but that's ok.. the phone just wont accept it, but it does before changing anything... so everything still works just as I bought it!
I can return it to the store if something goes whrong within 7 days... so that's why i'm not worried if something gets broken!
Chances are this version has all the current root methods patched, and will not be able to be rooted. I'd need a device to play around with to know for sure.
Perhaps the rest of the international versions are the same? what about the korean, or the Uk version?

It's very likely this is the case as well. Again, without a device in front of me to test with it's hard to say. If someone wants to post a dump of the device I can look at that as well.

Hi,
I've created a dump using the information provided at the modaco link above. As I never did it before, I don't know if it's correct. I used the following command "busybox tar cvf dump.tar /system". Here is the link:

When I tried to flash SBF 1.5.2 I got the following message (at phone): "sec_exception: febe, 35, 35" (or something like that). I'll be happy to provide more information if needed.
Cheers,
Thiago Souza
Root for this SBF
Follow the guide in my signature. This should work for all future SBFs
BTW, I would update to the Telstra one which is leaps ahead of the SBF you guys have gotten.
Whats the diference between ours and the telestra?
Many improvments?
Under the telestra one can we flash custom sbfs?

[Q] Telus has now removed 2.3.3 for fascinate...

Anyone happen to know, or even a guess why telus would remove the GB update from their site. I've read about people have various problems with the updating, but from what I read, those problems were PC related.
Mine worked just fine.
I also have a question... is it possible to dump a stock rom and/or radio and/or kernel without having root?
Thx
Maniac
Can anyone confirm if this is true?
That is sort of strange. Im glad I was able to get it in time. And rooted too
People were losing SD cards on telus also.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Can anyone tell me how I can rip the rom, cause I've tried the method found on these forums for the fascinate for froyo, but when I tried to odin it back it didn't work.
So right now I'm almost afraid to shut the phone off just in case I can't boot and I have no way to get it back to stock GB.
Mainly what I want to do is make a factory image that I can put somewhere for others to download it. Cause I want to try some things but I can't until telus puts the update up again.

I think Telus was getting all kinds of questions on when it would be available when they had no control over it - so they made a generic upgrade page.
I just tried with Kies and I got GingerBread BUT I'm also staring a long time at a galaxy S screen - lost my clockwork mod recovery as well (back to stock 3E).
Hmmmm - anyone know if this update is still available online somewhere as I have no OTA to get it and of course as the thread says... TELUS has pulled it.

I'm pretty sure to upgrade through the Samsung Kies software, you will have to remove any mods / hacks that you made to your phone.
Best option probably is to flash everything back to Stock, which I did. Then had no problem updating via Kies:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=923712
Alright I'll give that a shot tonight, the only 'mod' I have done would be rooting the phone - other than that it is stock at this time.
I guess the one thing I really shouldve mentioned in my first reply is I have the Fascinate 4G with TELUS, is the update specific to the 3G+?

Oh wait! If you have the Fascinate 4G+ (T959P) then you may not want to flash everything back to 2.2.
I'm not 100% sure that it may work with 4G Fascinate.
Can anyone validate the following steps will work on his Fascinate 4G+ ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=923712
They are different phones. If you could get the 3G+ file to flash at all (which I doubt), it would almost certainly semi brick the phone. There is an update section on telus website for fascinate 4G (just below the 3G+ entry) (no update available today). When you see the update available there, you're good to go.
I have the 4g and I won't flash anything made for the 3g. Two different phones. I remember reading a thread about people bricking the 4g while trying to put 3g stuff on it.

SCH-R760

Edit:
How to root:
I followed the directions in this thread.
http://teamuscellular.com/Forum/topi...2Bstock++tar
Except for the stock kernel I used the FF24 one. I uploaded to here:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/usnhbh2n9ksj08s/VMAJKof_-C
This will get you root, but stay mostly stock.
Well I have a Generic Samsung Galaxy S2
Model: SCH-R760
Android version: 2.3.6
Baseband: S:R760.01 K.FF24
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-SCH-R760.XARFF24-CL1125314 [email protected] #2
Build: GINGERBREAD.XARFF24
I am looking for how to obtain root only. I believe this can only happen by flashing another Kernel, in which case I would like to know how to back up my current Kernel.
Any help with this would be great. I know source is available from Samsung, but I have not learned how to build from source yet.
Thanks,
Ralph McDade
BUMP Me too, exact model. Am wanting to root. Any one with any info on how?
to root it looks like you are going to have to flash another kernel. If you have US cellular there are backups and rooted kernels. If you are on another carrier, you can flash the us cellular kernel and then reprogram the phone for your carrier. The problem with this is depending on what kernel you are on, you may not be able to go back to stock.
I am working on contacting Samsung to see if I can get the stock software that is currently in my phone. I will keep you posted.
No, It's not a US Cellular phone
I understand that, mine isn't either. But it looks like we can use the kernel from the US cellular that has been rooted. Or wait till a one-click root comes out for 2.3.6. Which maybe never due to work being done for newer android phones. Sorry, who is your carrier. If we can find the stock Kernel we could modify it. Problem is Samsung has not release it, only the source.
Mine is [email protected] #2
My carrier is a local company called Pioneer Cellular. All of my stats (kernel, build etc) match yours exactly
---------- Post added at 07:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:25 PM ----------
Is there a way to pull the kernel from the phone using odin?
I will let you know what I figure out. I am going to get in touch with my provider and see if they can provide the software. I doubt it though.
I have tried all of the one click solution none have worked.

Yes, we have successfully rooted. Follow the instructions in the following post. If you are on FF24 instead of FF18 then download the stock FF24 from page 2 in the same thread (post # 25 by mcdader) instead of in step 3.

sch-r760 rooted, use on other cdma services?
So i have my us cellular galaxy s2 phone rooted with some app exnos abuse or something like that. What i am wondering is if there is some way to get this phone to work with other cdma services such as verizon, verizon prepaid, straight talk, or even U-Prepaid( i guess this is us cellular, but they wont let you use a us cellular contract phone... Say what!?) Just so we are all on the same page, i am very much a noob when it comes it flashes and kernals. I used to toy around with flashing basic verison phones so that they would run java apps, but thats about it(lg phones turned into super nintendo).
I have searched around, but the only thread i found asking this same thing had no solution and a bunch of ppl complaining how it was on the wrong forum. So i thought i could post here? I hope nobody minds overly much.
Anyway, if this is possible i would love to hear from someone maybe get me pointed in the right direction.
I aslo read that verizon will not add meid numbers to their database. Do you think it would be possible to take the ein and meid of a verizon basic phone and put them on my device? Would i be able to get 3g if i did ths or do you think they would view ot as a basic phone on verizon's zide?
For the MEID swap NO. It's basically your phones fingerprint, assigned to that device built in to the hardware . Although you could clone another phone if its the same,but that is a felony. So I wouldn't try it. But flashing to another carrier, would require the stock files for that particular device. I.e if ur going from say Alltel phone to USSC you could flash USSC stock file to your phone. But it would basically have to be the same model GS2>GS2 and hardware.etc

What so to clone the meid of one device i own to another device i own is a felony? I bet that freakin FCC is behind this!
That aside, i've seen people talking about scripts that allow a user to install a newer android version from a similar device on another network, then the script edits the back to be able to use uscc, is there any way i can manually edit these settings so that i can connect to another network? I'm sure i can convince someone at straight talk to add my meid to their cdma service if their towers see my device. What with that new thing they offer send u a sim card for any gsm phone. Can anyone point me in the right dicection on switching carriers this way?

OK this is very very simple. No need to unlock sim. Download a rom from whatever service provider ie... att tmobile. The only thing you need is for it to have an aroma installer format your memory put your new Sim card in flash then go and download new recovery for the phone ie.. 900t as your recovery is 900p after then find a stock rom flash new recovery then your new stock rom and poof profit 4g. New phone. Fckn magic and I am a novice who messed with everything everyone else said with no luck best was hspa. But it would always jump towers roam no signal blah blah. Now I feel like I have a new tmobile phone 28mbs download .is the lowest I have pulled.

Ok, re read again your instructions.
Flashed the stockish lollipop T-Mobile rom.
I am all ready Sim unlocked, so can't address the sim unlock.
It seems the T-Mobile rom shows the 4G icon when connected as UMTS.
Speed test shows the same 2.5 megs. I get all ready, on any other Rom.
My Verizon phone with the same Sim gets 4 times the speed on LTE.
Thanks for working on this!

First off, thank you for this thread! I have two questions. What about getting it to work with Straight Talk? Also, what 5.0 ROM did you use that had the Aroma installer.
Just pick onone you like they will tell you if he use aroma on the first page. And yes it will work for straight talk

Yes but the only one I can find is 4.4.2 and I am on 5.0. Is it okay to downgrade to kitkat? Didn't know if it might brick it or not. Just flashed a Tmobile ROM N900TUVUFOB6-frequentc, ROM for the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3 frequentc but it didn't have AROMA installer.

Just don't mess with the bootloader and you'll be fine

Yeah so I've been flashing ROMS for quite some time. In fact I use multiboot on my Nexus 6 but anyway. I have 2 Note 3s and just bricked one of them when I flashed the wrong recovery in Flashify. I am going to try and restore it with ODIN and I hope it works. I flashed Darklord's Note 5 port which was absolutely stunning till I killed the phone with the wrong TWRP recovery. The phone had the SIM not valid in another language so I'm guessing flashing the right recovery would have made it work for T-mobile. Anyway, this will be my first brick after all of these years. My other Note is booting now and I hope the T-mobile and Straight Talk sims work. If per chance it does, I can then flash the Darklords ROM and still have service? I ask because you said you can go ahead and flash any ROM you like. Edit: I am having a hard time getting this to work. Is there any way you could just tell me what particular ROM you used because now I tried the Kitkat ROM and it will not boot. Please help. Thanks!
Ok follow the directions next time I don't know if you can Odin because of adb, but Samsung has an app, don't use flashify for this use twrp don't download a T-Mobile recovery till after u flash the aroma ROM then flash T-Mobile recovery then any T-Mobile rom

I completely understand that but can you please link me to the ROM you used or any Lollipop ROM that works? I ask because I cannot find ONE with Aroma installer for T-mobile that is 5.0. The kit kat ROM I just installed is stuck on the Samsung boot animation and won't boot.

S9+ Sprint to Unlocked?

Hi,
I have a Galaxy S9+ that was originally on Sprint, but I unlocked it with them after paying it off and moved to a different carrier (Mint Mobile.) However, it is still full of the sprint bloatware and always prompts for carrier updates that never work. I'm assuming this is because it is trying to get Sprint stuff still?
I was thinking of flashing to the unlocked rom, but I am a bit puzzled with this phone. It seems tricker than other phones I've flashed. I've flashed all my other android phones previously, but I'm nervous and don't want to brick this device by flashing the wrong file! Can someone point me in the right direction, please?
Model: SM-G965U
Software Version: G965USQS3BRK3
Hardware Version: REV1.1
Thanks in advance!!

It doesn't just download the firmware from the new carrier? My bought the unlocked model couple days ago and it downloads the carrier firmware

Mine didn't... We left sprint about 4 months ago and it still has all the sprint bloatware and the splash screen, etc... I can't get it to go away! Sprint confirmed the device is completely unlocked on their end.
I thought it was going to switch firmware automatically with the new SIM but it didn't.

I have seen phones to that. I tried metro PC's and some Sprint stuff stayed on my S8 at the time. Then when I when back to Sprint some metro stuff stayed. I even put a vzw Sim into it and vzw stuff stayed to. Even the unlocked S9 gets the bloadware when you add your Sim. It sucks

You could flash the U1(factory unlocked) firmware ending in 3ARK5. It was recommended to me to use the one with product code XAA, which I guess is purely carrier-free. When you flash it you'll want to use the patched Odin and use CSC rather than HOME_CSC, so that it will fully wipe your phone and set everything all up to work properly according to your sim card.
@YrrchSebor, I couldn't find 3ARK5/XAA. I did find 3ARJ5/XAR here:
https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=111A0940FA9A11E89F15FA163EE8F90B
Will that do the trick?

That may well work just fine, but I used XAA from Updato just the other day!

I actually flashed over from Verizon over a month ago, and I got a string of OTA updates up to ARJ6, but for some reason I got no update to ARK5, so I just flashed it manually. The main thing is to use a firmware with the same bootloader version, which you have by chosing one with a 3. I will say I couldn't be happier since switching to the unlocked firmware.
Ok, thanks! I'll give it a try this evening since you've already had success with that version.
I have Odin3 v3.12.3. Would you mind sharing the Odin version you used? I want to make sure I don't mess up this device.
Thanks again!

Hmm, that Odin might be an official one? You want the one with patcheD in the file name, looks like you can get it in the first post here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/patched-odin-3-13-1-t3762572
Reason for this is that official Odin will not flash a firmware that doesn't match up with what is already on the phone, so the patched version ignores that check.
Awesome. I'll download that one, then.
Thanks again for your help!
Sounds good, good luck and keep us posted.
Sorry, one more question to clarify- should I just clash the CSC or would you recommend I do BL, AP, and CP as well?

No problem, you'll wanna do all of them. Definitely AP because I believe that's the system with the apps(or lack of) and everything else. I did all four of them and that way my phone is fully as if it was a U1 out of the box.
Sweet. And I should just leave USERDATA blank right? So it is a complete factory reset?
Yep, you won't find a userdata in that download anyway. Just use CSC instead of HOME_CSC and it should all be good. Back anything up first if you really need it later. after the flash it will boot up and then shut down again so that it can configure everything according to your sim, so make sure and let that happen.
Success! Working better than before now. Thanks for your help.
Arright, glad you got it working, enjoy! One of my favorite things about the unlocked firmware has got to be the free built-in caller ID
