Guide: N9500 Unlocking the BL and TWRP - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion

N9500 ONLY. DOESNT WORK WITH US MODELS. STOP THINKING ITS THE SAME JUST CUZ BOTH ARE SNAPDRAGON.
EDIT: YOU want to try, you try, else DO not flood the thread with useless comments about how safe is this or what not. If you are afraid the chinese will take your close to useless info and kidnap you, can't help you with that.
I unlocked my BL with this file. Currently waiting for people to make 3rd party roms for it.
Attached link to my gdrive.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-Wqzmcwpi_9c1BpUUJPenI1Y00
Download and install. It will prompt you if you wish to unlock BL. It will not wipe ur internal. You can proceed with ODIN to flash TWRP.
TWRP is available too.
TWRP link : https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-Wqzmcwpi_9WGJIN0R2NVBtNUk
PLEASE have firmware files available in case of any errors.
AndroidPay works. Magisk is fine
NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES.

Has anyone tried this? The file is called 835crom....... 835 snapdragon I'm assuming. I downloaded it just in case, but won't install just yet. Though, if it were true, I'd unlock my bootloader in a heartbeat.

Permissions are kinda insane but unlocking bootloader is basically changing everything. I still don't trust enough to install.

You can try it. I have done it. Permissions might be alot as it sends the info it needs to the chinese server for unlocking. Anyway CROM service is used inthe Chinese market due to regulations. Can be downloaded off Samsung Galaxy Apps if you are wary.

Great now we are unlocking access via a Chinese server. 'Cause that seems safe. Not saying anything against China but, a majority of hacks are produced there.

Who's brave enough? I also don't see the point of most of these permission requirments....Even if it needs to access servers. Why does it need to access my calendar?

Lol. That's how it's done there. If you are against it, no one's forcing you to do it. If you actually did some research about it, xda has posts about CROM. Besides, its distributed itself by Samsung inthe Galaxy Apps.

I would not trust this and good luck to whoever does.

Sure. If you don't trust Samsung then you shouldn't be using the phone. Please kindly leave and do not flood the thread with non constructive comments. Thanks!

I'm not finding it in galaxy apps. I might install eventally if someone volunteers to test as well. To the OP, if this works, thanks for pointing it out.

Not saying I don't believe you or anything. I hope this isn't offensive, I apologize if so. You can understand why most people would be weary.
Just curious based on your screenshot, it just says successful and doesn't go through the process of wiping your internal data? Which usually is kinda part of the process when unlocking the BL...

Entirely up to u to try. If u are afraid of risks, then so be it. There surely will be people who try. And no, it does not wipe. You can go and visit S8 thread where there is CROM service threads about it. Downloading Apps may requires a Chinese Samsung account.

I 100% guarantee its chinese models only. They may be snapdragon but their bootloader is setup differently. USA models CANNOT UNLOCK via their method.

It's for model 950chn

Tried it and all it does is crash.
Its super worthless for USA Models

Yeah, but i'm afraid to try it if someone say that it doesnt work I dont want brick my new One Max right away..
I would try it however mine is soffed and rooted already... I won't worry about trying it out.. There are not much tool which can brick our phones without s off or atleast bootloader unlock.

It´s not working already tryed. I have the same Problem wan´t to gain s-off without unlocking bootloader, but there for i need a rooted stock rom. But i find no way to root my stock rom without unlocking the bootloader. If someone find a why please tell me.
I am afraid there won't be any methods to root it without boot loader unlock. Google is making android secure enough that root does not happen until bl unlock, which is good for us. If I am not wrong Samsung phone still get a method without bootloader unlock, I suppose that's because if Samsung or the extreme number of ppl could be working on it.

is your phone Verizon or sprint? The international variant is quite straight forward to root.
1. Unlock Bootloader via HTC Dev
2. Flash custom recovery from the recovery thread CMW/TWRP.
3. Download SuperSu.zip from http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu
4. Flash the zip in recovery.
If you use runrunner for the international version, you have to be rooted/unlocked first.

As I was running through the numerous One Max reviews researching whether I would take the plunge or go for the Note 3, I ran across the following article:
http://www.andromods.com/root-unloc...-rooted-unlock-bootloader-soff-rumrunner.html
It's dated for 9 December, but I can't totally verify that it works however as I was "lucky" to find one on eBay already S-Off, Rooted, and Bootloader Unlocked. Figured the seller's asking price of $675 was essentially the same as going to VZW and dropping $599 + tax. (Holding on to my unlimited data plan is getting increasingly more expensive with each phone upgrade.
Hello
Please i need Your help
If i will use One click root to my HTC Max 809d it will root it without stops the fingerprint ?
I need to know this before i make it if you please .
Thanks.

Q: rooting Huawei G535-L11 (kestrel from EE)

hi, is there a way of rooting this phone, i've tried all rooting methods (one click , Vroot , framaroot, SRS, etc....) no luck, any suggestions from our XDA devs here ??
I am super disapointed with the lack of interest form the modding community. Kestrel beats MotoG in multiple areas and is a cracking piece of HW. My daily driver now (left my Note 3 as a backup device)
WIth Android 4.2 and Snapdragon 400 onboard, device is plenty fast, I would just like to get CM11 on it for the sake of a pure experience.
I guess rooting is becoming less and less of interest and OEMs doing a better job at developing their SW...

Thanks mate, I appreciate Huawei may have played the bad guys and made it tougher to root. I am having a hard time understanding why a pure consumer product like this one is locked so tightly by the OEM...

i'm sure one of our devs here will come up with the root just to prove them wrong, i understand its a new phone branded as EE kestrel ,just about 1 month since its launch, i mean Huawei were quite good , supply the code to unlock the bootloader. i wish there was an old fashion way to root it, all these super one click methods don't hack it.
All we need is: Root file + recovery file :highfive:

what custom roms, there aren't any custom roms for the kestrel , not yet.
1- you'll need a custom recovery ( they haven't made one yet )
if you've found one that works with the kestrel , post the link
don't go flashing roms that aren't for your phone, you'll end up with a brick
Unlock bootloader : Check but the fastboot format all data
Root : Check
Go for recovery ....

This is a paid option and not for developer types like us. I am not convinced they support our USA model 955U anyway.

Think you missed the "lol" portion if my post
So I have been doing some research and the same kind of issue was occurring with the S7/Edge and there was a modified ODIN and "Engineering" boot.img (kernel) that claims to root the device. So I am curious if using that "modified hack" version of ODIN and a boot.img that has a kernel compatible with snapdragon (the only one I see in main s8+ forum is for Exynos). Not sure if this is really safe to do but I am guessing that once enough devs want root on this device, something will be out there. Has anyone tried KingRoot?
I have trieed Kingroot but always fail!!!
I hope Chainfire can do something for us.
Anyway: eng kernel exist for this device? Snapdragon version ofcourse.
I contacted the support team for oneclickroot and they said that they do not have a root for the US versions of the S8+.
Was wondering if there would be a way to modify and or port the s7 boot.img to an s8+ variant? Maybe even a way to "trick" it as to read it like an exynos vairant processor?
i just bougt sprint s8+ off swappa. any update to the rooting it cause im gonna unlock it.

I've tried KingRoot, but it's hot garbage. Seeing so much in the way of information regarding the S8 Plus having a locked bootloader (Sprint ENG_US version or any other carrier variant for that matter), and I was wondering if there is any new information? Eager to root this bad boy, but no bueno thus far. I'm seeing the information for international ones using the Exynos, but I found this 'CF-Auto-Root-dream2qltesq-dream2qltesq-smg955u.tar' earlier this afternoon. Not even sure if this is compatible and I'm not going to be the guinea pig today. Has anybody else messed with this kit?
Anybody have any relevant information pertaining to effective rooting of the S8 Plus on Sprint by chance? Until I hear of some success with this, I'm not going to attempt. Got a bit of a qualm with a $1K paperweight. Please advise.
Thanks!

SM-T860 Combination Rom Request [solved]

Anybody have a working copy? I downloaded one from here https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117934353 but it seems to be corrupted. Failed md5 invalid binary. Downloaded twice with same result. Anybody have another link would be appreciated.
BTW renaming without the md5 doesn't work. Odin doesn't even seem to recognize it.
Edit - Found. @Mentalmuso was nice enough to get this. If you're here then this saved your life, so don't forget to shoot him a beer.
https://mega.nz/#!j18VnAbC!qBMrOtDRY6H2qtahWcF5gJiYuf6m4QyfKxzEJ4g09rg
I downloaded the combination ROM from the link above, but have never used one (or even heard of them before this post), so I have a few questions:
(1) From what I've read, combo ROMs are 'service' ROMs with capabilities that are mostly useful on phones, but also seems to give the user more freedom over the device, in general. Is this correct?
(2) What advantages on an aleady rooted tablet?
(3) Wanna share any user experience(s)?
Thanks

Unfortunately you won't be able to flash combination files due to some new Samsung security feature with 2019 devices. I've been trying various ways unsuccessfully so far.

This smartswitch wont work. I have Nov security update so after restart it wont start smartswitch. My firmware is T860CXXs1xxxx so combination T860CXXU1ASG8 wont work cause it has U1 not S1 build. It wont let me flash it. Numbers should match so you are able to flash combination. I believe we will have to wait when S1 or S2 or S3 combination firmware will come out. Better not to flash newer firmware. I guess we have exactly the same situation. If I FRP my tab I will message you

I'm in the same boat. FRP locked.
I would REALLY appreciate some assistance and of course I would be eternally gratefull!!
THANKS!!
Problem solved!!
I just figured out how to get passed FRP lock without flashing firmware or using a computer.
Fully updated tab S6. Fairly simple to do. I will be posting a how to as soon as I can. At work now and simply can't. Tropical storm and all....
If you would like to ask a question, feel free.
Woo hoo!!!

What question ? Simply explain process and solution (if any) to others and that's all.
If solution is simple, so procedure explanation will be short as well and benefit to those who were stuck in FRP.
Personally, I doubt it is possible without usage of re-flashing or computer.
Since last post at August 4th untill now, it seems a very long 20 days tropical storm indeed.
I don't think I like your attitude.
I have not been on much and I forgot to explain the process I used.
It is possible as I have done it. Don't really care if you doubt it.
For anyone else that would like to know what I did, I will post tomorrow. I am working today and can't.

Question Xperia 5 IV Model Decision - XQ-CQ54 vs XQ-CQ72

As someone living in the USA and using T-Mobile as a provider, is there a significant difference between the XQ-CQ54 and XQ-CQ72 models? If so, which one should I go with?
I will not be using the XQ-CQ62 (US version) because the bootloader cannot be unlocked and I would like to use a custom ROM.
You can unlock the bootloader on 62 but it cost about 20 bucks..its a recent hack ... Xda isnt allowing guides with money involved so that's why theres none posted here.
Other then that i think 54 version aka european is way better then chinese 72. Just for esim alone

Would you be able to provide a link to the service or at least a name for the website? I'd like to try that one but I'd also like to not download a virus.
I havent tried it but there are reports of it being a legit thing. I ll send you a pm so you can look into that thread.

would love to hear about your experience with the tool
I have the US version and found out the hard way that its bootloader can't be unlocked. I've always had a rooted phone, BUT I would say this phone has everything that I want and need. And Android 13 now has features that I used root phones to get. On the flip side, I have seen people that have the 1 iv US version and they've used the mentioned tool, and were able to change the no to a yes. As long as Sony keeps pumping out updates, I'm good for now on stock, but I may revisit the tool if updates stop.

Don't post nonsense. Bootloader unlock is possible.

All that I was saying is that I may be open to trying the "workaround" to enable bootloader unlock on the US version later on. Please explain to me how that is nonsense. Or if you know of a way to change the no to a yes on these locked down versions, I'm all ears.

That's a pretty direct statement which is made up of nonsense.
No to yes and unlocking the bootloader is possible. See the thread about the so-54c or check my posts.

That's all you needed to say. I was only verifying that I ran into the same situation. I'll check out your posts, and read up. I haven't had an Xperia in almost 10 years, so I'm getting caught up.
