i managed to get the OF6 sprint full rom file through kies.
this is only to be flashed using odin in the ap slot.
you will probably lose root and your custom recovery.
you may be able to root it and restore the data . That up to you to try.
This is the Sprint version Only!
here is the link: if someone wants to provide a mirror that would be appreciated.
Disabling 'Reactivation Lock' from 'Security' in the settings allowed me to root and add a custom recovery (TWRP).
your on your own from here!

It's always great to have a TAR file on PC. Thanks!
But btw, this is Android 5.0 update, right? Have read on android blogs that OF6 has been 5.1 update for T-Mobile Galaxy S6 sets. So..
Okay, it's 5.0.2. Brings Reactivation lock.

First is this a necessary update? Second does one have to update to OD3 first before doing the update. I'm still on OA6

no you dont have to update and no it isnt necessary. but if you are on stock OA6 I would take to guess that this rom is 5 months newer with improvements in alot of areas. they claim its for factory reset protection (so someone cant steal your phone and just factory reset it and it theirs now) and for reactivation protection (same thing so noone can reactivate the phone and make it theirs)
if i was on straight stock i would update. if i was on a stock rooted i would either try and root it or wait for someone to root the tar file and make it flashable through recovery.
thats my take on it.
cool... thanks. I like the security features, but at the same time I may wait till the new Moar comes out to do the work.

Has anyone successfully loaded a custom recovery and possibly one of the available OA6 ROMs after updating to this full tar?
I know there are separate modem and firmware files, but I was just curious if anyone has tried to go there from full stock.

Yes. In fact, I did a full rom install, with nand erase all (after a bad flash), and I still went back to OA6 and OD3 stock deodexed roms.
Flashing TWRP from Odin works fine after flashing OF6 or OD3. I also used the CF one click root method, and that also worked for me.
Everything I did was in Odin 3.10.6.
Chainfires auto root makes odin complains about the recovery and shows 'fuse>3', which (I assume) means I've already burnt thru three of the 400+ fuses in the phone (kernel, recovery and probably rooting). I've tried odin 3.10.6 and the version that comes with chainfires auto root. Towelroot v3 says my phone isn't supported, even when using the command mod options.
I'll boot back into Windowz and try this a few more times. I don't see/know how joshdv rooted his phone...
edit: let's add insult to injury. I can't downgrade the firmware/OS to OA6, says it fails OS version.

Depends how long you're willing to wait and if you want to keep the warranty bit untripped.
If it doesn't matter, you can still flash custom recovery in odin and any one of the pre-rooted custom or stock roms that will run on the lollipop bootloader.

★ [N900V] [KitKat] [NC2 Firmware/Bootloader] [NC4 Modem/Recovery] [Boot Loop Fix] ★
This is a part of JasmineROM. It fixes the boot loop issue when entering (rebooting to) recovery on NC2 and upgrades the modem and recovery to NC4. Sure, by flashing this file in Odin, you can still roll back to Jelly Bean MJE with all the benefits of the leaked NC2 kernel.
An updated/unified version & instructions can be found here!

I confirm that this works better than the NC2 modem––for me. The firmware file provided by @BeansTown106 doesn't include NC2 recovery, and that's why entering recovery fails resulting in a boot loop. You can fix the boot loop issue by just flashing the NC2 recovery. However, the linked file here includes upgraded NC4 recovery and modem together with the NC2 firmware/bootloader.
The only issue I had when flashing the NC4 modem is incorrect lockscreen PIN code. So, you may need to set the lockscreen to "swipe" before flashing and change it later. At any time, you can roll back to the NC2 package by flashing @BeansTown106 firmware file. You can also roll back to JB MJE if you wish––or for root/disaster recovery.
Anyway, I tried this several times before posting. I'm a developer in another field, but I wanted to say thanks to the great XDA community by posting something useful (it's my 1st post).

Unset any lockscreen PIN/pattern, reboot to Download Mode, flash via Odin3, reboot to SafeStrap, wipe cache/dalvik, reboot to system, set your lockscreen security, and enjoy!
So this is basically like flashing the stripped nc4 modem .tar from the kitkat release? Im on ricks kitkat rom so this wouldn't affect anything else (only give me the newest radio) . The new recovery doesn't really improve anything since we are using safe strap correct?

Yes, but... The (new) recovery fixes the boot loop problem when accidentally rebooting to recovery from advanced power menu (for example). The NC2 firmware also gives the option of recovering from other boot loop problems. So, yes, its NC2 firmware/bootloader + NC4 modem + NC4 recovery in one file. You may not need it for now, if you've already flashed the new modem and NC2 recovery (not included in @BeansTown106 file), but it's still useful to have all of them in one small file that can be easily used for upgrading the modem and disaster recovery (e.g., rolling back to MJE for root before upgrading again to NC2).

No problem! You're welcome.
I've also prepared files for rooted NC4 ROM + firmware, but I don't like to post them because NC4 bootloader is incremented. So, you can get fully rooted NC4 ROM, but at any major problem, you'll lose root and there's noway to roll back to MJE. Thanks to @Hashcode for the PSA at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2727876.
This is awesome. Thank you so much. Just installed this via Odin and let me tell you the NC4 modem is a huge upgrade over the NC2 one. Worth the few minutes to install just for that alone.

Just flashing in Odin is enough, but it's recommended to unset any lockscreen security before flashing and wipe cache/dalvik then. Here's the recommended steps:
1. unset any lockscreen PIN/pattern
2. reboot to Download Mode
3. flash via Odin3
4. reboot to SafeStrap
5. wipe cache/dalvik
6. reboot to system
7. set your lockscreen security
This is recommended only if you installed Xposed modules and modified the lockscreen behaviour. Otherwise, just flash via Odin3!
is this pre-rooted?
Morlok8k said:

This isn't a ROM; it's just NC2 firmware/bootloader + NC4 modem/recovery. You need to be on the rooted NC2 to flash.

hey, i just skimmed the original post, and thought it was a full-blown NC2 ROM with the NC4 radio, etc.
I am sorry if I am misunderstanding but if I'm on nc2 and flashed only the modem nc4 from Droid forums that means I can't roll back to mje?i haven't tried it and I haven't had issued just curious I'm happy where I am as I'm rooted still on nc2 with my mobile Hotspot and unlimited data so I couldn't be happier u just want to know if I'm going to have the option to roll back to me modem if I wanted to
I think I was reading this as the firmware not the radio sorry ignore my question long day at work and my brain is jello

Kernel build date on NG3 is July 19 so the exploit has been patched. Can't root with towelroot since it needs a kernel build before Jun 3.
What I did was odin flash philz recovery, then went into the custom recovery and went to reboot, it asked me to root and so I did then was able to download su from play store and was rooted

This phone will never not be rootable. It has an unlocked bootloader, so you can just flash the recovery of your choice, root it from there, then reboot and you're done.

And why is that? Unless Samsung has restricted the bootloader permissions or set a new qfuse to block a downgrade of this firmware version, then the OP could use Odin to install a pre June 3rd build of 4.4.2 firmware, which Towel root can work with.
The previous update was revertible by installing an earlier firmware (confirmed). And NG3 is probably revertible as well (unconfirmed) i.e. it will be revertible unless Samsung took explicit steps to block a downgrade.
Provided that the OP doesn't care about the Knox flag, then the suggestion to install a custom recovery and root from there is valid too.

Yeah, I did it via download mode.
So, what I did, I flash it via Odin in Download mode, and when it auto-reboots, I instantly hold Power + Pwr Up + Home in order to get to Recovery.
If I let it boot up first, it seems that recovery is overwritten by the stock recovery.
All good now =)

you need to revert to ne6 firmware for towel root to work. once rooted you can upgrade with mobile odin pro this will allow you to retain root and not trip knox

all went well and I have stock recovery but it still says I have a custom device and wont do the upgrade. I looked and sure enough it says status custom???

Save your data, then try doing a Factory Reset, see if takes you back to official. If your KNOX is 0x1, then you can flash a fresh copy of 4.4.2 through a recovery like twrp or cwm. If you where rooted, Towel Root and others will not root 4.4.4 yet.

You download odin than downliad twrp than run odin and check ap and select the twrp you downloaded. Put your phone in download mode and start odin. One thing you need to watch out for is after the process finishes the phone reboots and you need to have it go immediately into recovery instead of booting up.. if you need more info you will need to do some reading there are plenty of how toos and i can't type this much on my phone

You should try Wanam Xposed. It fools Kies and let's me download.

Kingo is trying to root but it doesn't seem to be working. Just cycles through checking ROOT status, Downloading requisite dependency files, waiting for device....

I'll assume you're on a custom recovery... Follow this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
Scroll down to "CWM / TWRP / Mobile ODIN installable ZIP" and grab the link in there. Flash in recovery and you should be good to go.

You were just being thorough!
I can't post external links yet (I've been lurking in the shadows of this site for darn near 4 years and NEVER post, haha... so work with me here).
Google "install twrp via odin sprint note 3" first hit should be for "Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (Sprint) - TeamWin"
Scroll down to Download - Odin Method.
Install TWRP via ODIN
Install SuperSu via my first link.
Used Wanam Xposed and phone status is set to offical, but Kies still think mine is the lastest. Anyway, I will stick with 4.4.2 for working video camera, screen mirroring and fm.

You can ODIN the full stock .tar and then follow up with TWRP and flash your ROM after that.
I just did this process to upgrade from NH7 and then re-flashed Tema's CM12.
Cf auto root will root it
Anyone got a link to Cf auto root for sm900p? I get bandwidth exceeded when I download from chainfire
No issues rooting and installing TWRP on NK4 for me. My steps were as follows:
1. Downloaded the official N900PVPUDNK4_N900PSPTDNK4_SPR from the links in the OP.
2. Backed up my rooted NH7 (via Titanium Backup and TWRP) just in case.
3. Wiped everything via TWRP recovery.
4. Odin (v3.09) NK4 using the AP slot and let the phone reboot.
4b. Probably overkill but I then did a factory wipe via stock recovery and rebooted.
5. Odin TWRP 2.8.1.0 and rebooted into recovery.
6. Installed Chainfire's SuperSU-2.40.zip via TWRP recovery and rebooted the phone.
7. Immediately got rid of all the bloat using Titanium Backup!
So far I haven't run into any issues.
Did you ever get it to work?

My software and baseband are both nk4.
I went full stock nh7 and updated ota.
When I updated to nh7 (when it was new), I used kies... It only updated one and caused me problems. I had to flash both via odin to fix back then.
Ya looks like my baseband never took I'll have to fix at a later point. Phones working fine though. It's weird.

You might want to try to power off before odin. Sometimes modem wont be updated if odined after a mere reboot.

Hello all.
I have made a firmware only file for the DOB1 version of software for those that want to upgrade with the mobile/pc odin way.
That way you can upgrade a knox 0 and keep knox 0 and root.
Just need to run mobile odin with the stock tar that is available and inject mobile odin and su
for reboot options have it go into download mode
then flash this firmware only file to complete the upgrade and then let it boot up.
Should be good to go.
Download the file from box here:

Thought I've read in many places that lollipop doesn't work with mobile Odin.
What happens here is you dont get the full version of lollipop, so technically you are still on 4.4.4. You will still be on the kitkat kernel. Plus the possibility of errors and such.
I would just wait till the dev have a way to root the full version of lollipop.
The kernel is written though with aboot in the firmware only file that you flash with Odin no?

No the kernel is boot.img, which is missing from you file. mobile odin can flash this but it is not recommended, also there is a bunch of necessary files that are not able to be flashed with mobile odin. That is the reason i came up with a way to root without tripping knox. Have you tried your method yet? if you did can you post a screen shot of your about phone.
The best way to get it done efficiently is pc Odin back to official 4.4.2 then take a two updates that will be waiting in line the Volte update then the 993mb Lollipop OTA putting you on stock 5.0.
MOBIL ODIN will screw you up if you try to flash the download able update .
I tried to cheat and go the easy way by reflashing stock 3e recovery with cf auto then I tried to use wannam xposed security hack to Enable custom to officiall status .
After I uses mobile Odin to flash the file from samfirm I was stuck in a boot loop .
Finally just full tar Odin flashed back to 4.4.2 then took Ota.
4.4.2 cf auto will root 5.0 just for reference nothing changes

Wait...
You had steps for updating?
I didn't find any when I looked.
I haven't yet tried this on my device but a friend that has it said these were the steps he did and it worked. I uploaded firmware and radio file since I didn't find it here. I can also make one that is the boot img in it to flash in regular Odin. Mobile Odin only injects in system I believe.
Do you have a link to your dob1 steps?

Yeah i had steps for updating and rooting on kitkat not lollipop. I had gotten rid of my s5 2 days before lollipop came out. :crying: But a friend has the s5 and he tried to do your steps on his phone and said that it did not work and was getting errors and the kernel was still on 4.4, But he did say that after he pc odin back to stock and took the official lollipop update he was able to use cf auto root to root his device on lollipop. He unfortunately tripped knox doing it with cf auto root. I told him to wait and stop by my house so that i can test some methods that will root without tripping knox, but he couldnt wait and took the plunge. He also said that mobile odin crashed when he tried to use it with lollipop, lucky for him that when it crashed it did not mess his phone up.
The best bet here is to see if you can take the official update, use pc odin to flash ne6 kernel, then use towel root and then pc odin the stock 5.0 kernel back to see of you still have root and not trip knox..
Be careful when you try your method with the kernel added to your package and using mobile odin. Anything related to kernel can cause you to trip knox. I am still having my friend come over so that i can verify a couple of things before i update my thread on rooting.
Okay.
I have found a process for this that works perfectly.
At least on my device.
This is starting with a towelrooted NK2 version with knox 0x0
I went and downloaded the full DOB1 image from SamFirmware and copied that to the internal memory of the phone.
Then I installed mobile odin pro on the phone.
I then in mobile odin pro open the stock firmware from above and had it set to boot into download mode.
I flashed and let it open in download mode.
I then used Odin 3.09 to flash the firmware radio file with no reboot.
Then flashed the kernal in a seperate file.
Rebooted the phone into recovery to let it complete steps.
Then rebooted the phone normally.
Everything seems to have loaded up okay for me now.
Will try for a few days and report back. But is seems to have worked okay.
So you're rooted in DOB1 with knox at 0x0?

Yup
Just a bit of trial and error going back and forth to find something that worked.
Only problem I am running into is that I can not update Su Binary with the app so far.
But it is giving me root access and everything seems to be working.
Okay I take that back.
I have su binaries and everything on it but it won't function and I can not update it for some reason.
I wonder if it is due to the mobile odin injecting ones that are too old.
I made some changes to mobile odin so it has the newer supersu apk and binary from 2.46
Will try and flash back and upgrade again and see if that makes a difference.
im getting an invalid md5 in pc odin. have you been able to flash this?

where do you get the kernel file? also the firmware only file you made is getting rejected in odin 3.09. what are you using to extract?

ok I got the firemware only file to flash in odin but I had to rename the file from .tar.md5 to .tar.

That's probably because the OP renamed the file after repacking it. You really don't want to remove the .md5 and flash like that if at all possible, because that md5 checks the file's integrity.
Not, trying to hijack your thread @TheArtiszan but I have the Recovery, Kernel, Bootloader and Modem already repacked here:
aaricchavez said:
I know @The Sickness extracted and posted the modem.bin and NON-HLOS.bin already, but i've repacked the Modem, Bootloader, Kernel and Recovery separately as Odin flashable .tar's for anyone who needs them.
I've tested them all out and they work correctly for me, use at your own risk though. For G900T ONLY
Also, consider this: Warning flashing Bootloader/Modem/ FULL FIRMWARE LOLLIPOP
Bootloader/BL:
Bootloader
Phone/CP:
Modem
PDA/AP:
Kernel
Recovery
Also, not to be off topic. Just saw alot of people asking about them!
Thanks @AxAtAx for all the hard work you do, as always!

Will this work with Mobile Odin? The one found in the market? I'm currently traveling and don't have a PC and would love to pass time and upgrade to lollipop.

You will need a computer to flash the bootloader.
Sorry.
No way around that at this time.
