Hello everyone,
I got some troubles with my VZW Note 2 and really need help. I rooted my phone but didn't unlock the bootloader. Since then, I used the stock ROM only without any modification.
Today, I tried to make a backup of the current ROM. The phone suddenly bricked with a message "System Software not authorized by Verizon Wireless".
I tried to follow the instruction to restore stock ROM on the sticky note, but Odin failed to process right after 5-10 seconds. It stopped right at CACHE step. I have tried to use different USB port but no luck.
Does anyone know how to fix this? It would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
make sure you use the "alternate restore" file that I have linked in section 1b of the guide. I bet your failing at sboot, not cache.

I'm having the same problem, I can't get the alternate ROM or the normal ROM to work.
I've tried both seperately, both with PIT file, both without PIT file, PIT file first then either of them...
Nothing is working

I'm currently re downloading the alternate restore file to make sure it wasn't the file itself or anything. I'll post the results shortly. I know on some of the times I've tried it said Xmit file error or something along those lines, but I'll copy paste it once I re try.

OK this is odd. I tried to reflash the Root66 file that has a pre rooted stock IMG of the OS, and that worked first try...
So try that if nothing else works!
I'm getting internet [4G ] , text messages, all that.

Thanks to braway and Blue1k,
braway gave most of the instructions, and Blue1k provided the system.img file.
All I did was testing and uploading.
I'm not responsible for anything that will happen to your device;
I tried it and it worked without ANY problem:
My flash counter is still at 0, I have TELUS Stock system/kernel etc. and I have ROOT.

Test the archive file before you flash, make sure it's not corrupted!
Instructions (copied from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1518962 , Thanks to roloracer)
1. Turn off your phone and uplug it. Take the battery out of your phone, put it back in, and hold the volume down button and power button at the same time. Keep them held down until the phone starts buzzing and you see the Samsung name.
2. At this point you are either in download mode or the phone will tell you to hit volume up, at which point you'll be ready.
3. Run Odin on your PC -- right click and choose "Run as Administrator" just to be safe.
4. Plug your phone into your PC.
5. In the Odin screen, wait until one of the top boxes turns yellow and displays some numbers.
6. UNCHECK all the boxes except for Auto Reboot.
7. Unzip the file that you downloaded.
8. Hit the PDA button and navigate to telus-rooted-system.tar.
9. Hit start
10. wait until your phone reboots.
11. If it didn't work, try rebooting and starting from scratch.
12. Install Superuser app from Play Store: Superuser

As far as I know Boot animation is in kernel image, not system:

thanks, the 3 individual files, how do you make them into one tar file ? Do you extract them to all one file or is it automatic when you extract each of the 3 files ?

Hey all i accidentally hit the OTA update "OK" button when it popped up on my screen. I've been deferring it for the past few months but my finger slipped and hit the "OK" instead of the "defer" and choosing a date to ask again.
I have a looping "Teamwin" logo and it keeps looping.. Cant seem to do anything. I've taken out the battery and then start it up but it still does the same thing.
Any advice, step by step to get out of this loop?
Thanks!

you can not OTA update with a custom recovery...time for a date with Odin.

Would you care to give me a link to do this with a note 2, droidstyle?
yep click the link in my sig...refer to section 1b. you can probably get away with using root66 so you do not have to reroot and unlock BL.
Also when you get back up and running I would recommend freezing SDM1.0 apk with a App such as Titanium back up pro and you will no longer get prompted for OTA updates.

if you had an updated firmware then that file wouldnt work for you. i also noticed though you put that file in the bootloader field instead of the pda field when you tried flashing it one of those times. that may have been a bad thing. you could try to flash the other file marked vramc from that thread.

root66 works on all devices with the current firmware since it does not contain a bootloader, recovery, or wipe data. Sometimes it will cause a bootloop which all that is needed is to wipe data in recovery.

you need to boot into recovery and wipe data...if you can get into recovery the a full odin package will need to be flashed such as stock VRAMC3. However it looks like you figured it out.
Hey guys,
I need a creative solution to restore my phone to stock for warranty claim. My USB does not work so I don't have the usual option of using Odin.
I thought I had found a solution with Mobile Odin but whenever I try to run, it mentions it is not compatible with my device. I am currently on Hyperdrive 17.1 via SS.
Thanks

If you are on NC5 I have a nandroid backup of a stock NC5 image that only has root. I could give you a link to my dropbox that has the zip and you could flash through safestrap then unroot, etc.... I imagine that would work. Up to you if you want to try it. Just let me know cuz I'm gonna have to boot into it myself and remove all my contacts and everything.

Yes it should work, generally you don't want to use nandroids from another phone of course, but if he's just doing it to return to stock for warranty, it should be enough to get it to boot, etc.

There you go. You should be able to download these files and put the in extsd/TWRP/backup/d.......
And "restore" in safestrap. You will then need to remove safestrap, supersu, and towel root apps and unroot. You may be able to unroot through supersu but I'm not sure. I hope this works for you...keep me posted so I can delete the dropbox folder if it works. Ill be deleting the folder in a day or two anyway just in case. The files are good but I assume no risk if something does go wrong as I've never done anything like this before...you should be OK though.
You may need to flash this https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358539843 for WiFi also.
Great. Well i have downloaded all files onto my SD in the directory mentioned...
When i go into SS to restore, nothing appears. Any idea?
Try making a folder called 'stock' or something in extsd/TWRP/backups/d...... And moving everything to the new folder.

try replacing usb port
I started fixing phones (mainly iDonts because screens are a LOT cheaper), but I've replaced a usb port on an s4 active and it took me less than 10 minutes start to finish (for your first time I would watch the youtube video a few times and take as much time as needed, and btw fridge magnets work great for not losing screws)
the part should be $10 to $20 with shipping on amazon, and tool kit is less than $5 (the part might come with tools, look in description)
just search youtube "how to replace usb galaxy s4"
the usb port (and attatched flex cable) is not carrier specific, however, it probably differs from the s4 active and mini, and unfortunately don't have one to see if it is, so be sure to look out for that. The procedure IS different between S4 active, S4 mini, regular S4 so be sure you're watching a how to video on the right model
if you need any help with this, reply to this thread or pm and i will help you out.
Unless you have very shakey hands and/or can't see those small screws, I am confident you can do it, for not much has to come apart to replace the usb. The hardest part is the flex cable connection to the motherboard, but if you disconnect it with a PLASTIC tool, you greatly reduce risk of damage, so use plastic. A magnifier may help to see what you're doing, especially when fitting the new cable connection
Good luck!
edit: just looked back n saw the part about warranty. Well, I'm pretty sure you can get away with this, if it is a defective usb port. Those long samsung cables go bad after awhile so try another one (if you knew that already, disregard) and make sure verizon doesn't claim misuse (i.e. forced cable upside down; I used to work for them, they wouldn't replace phones for that reason but that was almost 4 years ago) just maybe try and make it look well taken care of if going warranty route. I am still pretty sure there are no void stickers on any screws, but I can check as soon as I figure out how to get safestrap back after forgetting to flash supersu after Hyperdrive rls19. I miss mdk...wish i didn't break that $180 display, I went with $100 Asurion claim (btw it was a brand new replacement, so any void stickers would be there)
Anyways, hope this helps, reply if need more, and good luck!

If I'm not mistaken, that logo can only be removed with an Odin .tar full wipe, for that custom lock shows up when anything to the ROM is changed, which it still may be. Locked bootloader means anything before the safestrap logo is locked (i think). I may be full wiping via odin today for I need to get root again, so I can let ya know if it gets rid of that.
Obviously I'm still a newb to xda, but I've been rooting for few years now, so keep that in mind. Just tryin to get my thx count up so I can actually post things lol. But if I am wrong about ANY of this, I am open to any criticism (so long as not rude and quick explaination why)
Hope this helps
Edit: maybe try flashing that zip again, but wiping system first? But if you lost safestrap I'm not sure how that is possible

got echoe rom working without having to flash to tmobile firmware like one poster did. yes on the sprint s7 variant. started on universal firmware, rooted. then i flashed stang5litre rom. couldnt get data to work on it. so i then flashed echoe and it worked!! yes i did a full data wipe each time... had to edit build prop (310120), then add apn2 in apn settings. everything works... not sure if it has to do with stang5litre, or i could have just flashed over universal firmware.
Dam i would b down to flash the universal rom then echoe but i dont wana go do both if it doesnt work lol.
What are the apn settings I would need to change? Thanks a ton. I flashed over the u firmware before and data,etc wasn't working. Didn't know what to do for apn settings

Flash, set it up, install flashier. Have the echoe rom ready on your sd. Root, hurry up and flash the file. It may take a few tries of it rebooting to get it to work.

Yea i kept trying to root it but it kept rebooting before it could get rooted. Then when the phone would boot back up the root program would fail and reboot the phone. I got mad and stopped lol
no phone calls or texts
sorry for getting your hopes up guys. realized today i couldnt make texts or phone calls on the rom. looks like an activation issue.

I would suggest then change the misleading title of the forum...
wow... that was a while ago. i was one of the first people to get it to actually boot. i didnt check for msges or calls the first day... so sue me. if you can't take the time to read all the forum posts then maybe you shouldnt be here. there is a guide on the s7 edge forum that shows you how to get the rom working. it involves flashing pe1 or pf2 verizon firmware. don't be an ass dude.
you gotta pay to play...
man, i miss the days of the s3, when i could do anything to that phone after having invested in a riff box. hook that sucker up to the board and fix the hardest of bricks in minutes. i dont even know if these phones are jtaggable now... i should look into it... this board is just depressing. they completly murdered what would have been a great community... its a shame.
sorry, typing with broken keyboard. no shift key.
