hello everyone
i bought an unlocked ls990 g3 phone, it seems that it was originally locked
however the software version installed is ZV4 stock
the phone is unrooted but did not received any firmware updates through OTA
my questions are:
1- why i did not receive the official firmware update ?
2- if i update the firmware to zv6 then zv8 manually, will it lock the phone again?
3- if yes, which custom firmware is the best in terms of similarities as the stock firmware ?
i will appreciate if someone could help me
thanks a lot
Hi,
I have a SM-G925FQ
This is a specific model for Turkish market.
I have rooted it with root method for SM-G925F
Now I want to unroot , to update it when Marshmallow is distributed for this model.
How can I unroot ? (any easy methods ?)
And then of course I will root when it is updated to 6.0
- Do we have root for Marshmallow possibility now ?
- Is it better to upgrade with root ?
- Or is it better to do it as I would (unroot then upgrade ?)

You can only safely take the ota by reflashing your stock rom via odin if the odin flash file exists. I recommend searching sammobile.com to find it and if its not there 9/10 it doesnt exist. Idk if root exists for your varient on mm but i do know that there is a root people use but i would say it is just for them. G925F only just got mm so root may be tricky. Anything else further i can help with is odin flashing to unroot besides that there is nothing else i can tell you other than you need a pc.

Flashing stock rom via Odin is a good idea to unroot and have the opportunity to upgrade.
But SM-G925FQ rom does not exist on Sammobile.
Once I had downloaded it through Samsung's official PC app (was not Kies, the newer one)
But I don't remember how I had done that.
Does anyone know how to download original rom through PC app ?

Is there any rooted (and possibly deodexed) rom based on G925FXXU3DPBG ?
I have a V30+ H930DS. A few months ago I used the WTF method to unlock the bootloader and installed another stock ROM for H930DS. It is rooted and I have installed Magisk. I am wanting to update to a later version for the newer security patches, ideally without having to wipe apps. I currently have software version V20d-GLOBAL-COM and build OPR1.170623.026. I think this was a CIS ROM that was suggested to install in the WTF thread. I'm in NZ. I see there is a thread here which is for Indian dual-SIM model. I am not sure if I should update to this or stick to a global or Australasian ROM (which might mean wiping). Any suggestions on best way to update?
Hi all, I have just got a JP ver. SO-05G with stock 32.3.D.0.148 firmware. It has SIM unlocked so I like to keep this. Can this tablet share SGP771's firmware or patch? If I cross flash SGP771 fw or LineageOS, will I lose the SIM unlock?
And is Magisk never work in stock fw?
Thanks a lot.
I'm trying to use this method to update my firmware without losing root. Thoughts?
