[General Questions and Answers] Craig_D:
Ok I said I would give up for fear of bricking my phone but I had another go nonetheless and needless to say it failed.

Can anyone give me any advice why this is happening? The simplest of stages is failing. I have the international version of the Note 4 so I don't understand why this isnt working. My phone is in download mode, I've download Odin 3.09 again and Chainfire's Auto Root file again and developer and usb debugging are activated on my phone. I'm not the sharpest tool in the box when it comes to all things rooting but I seem to have all bases covered yet its failing. The only thing I can think of is that Chainfire's Auto Root file says, on the table of files, It's based on the Build ID of LRX22C.N910FXXU1BOB4 my phone is currently on a Build ID of LRX22C.N910FXXU1BOC3

Would it be worth flashing the BOB4 build and trying that or does the build number have little significance in the rooting procedure?

While in download mode my phone displays this text in the upper left of the screen:

ODIN MODE (HIGH SPEED)

PRODUCT NAME: SM-N910F

CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official

SYSTEM STATUS: Official

REACTIVATION LOCK: ON

KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x0

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLED (CSB)

RP SWREV: S1, T1, R1, A1, P1

SECURE DOWNLOAD : ENABLED

UDC START

do any of these pieces of information suggest why the rooting attempt is failing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated because this is extremely frustrating

Its something they changed in lollipop, root or any system changes will cause ota to fail.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Have you considered trying to find a different stock firmware that will flash to your device through Odin, maybe the firmware that your root method DOES work on?

Also, the download for the file you are trying to use could be a bad download. Have you tried comparing the md5 sums to see if the sum of the file you have matches the sum for that file where you downloaded it from?

Edit: I see now that you've already thought of this. Yes, I would try using the BOB4 firmware, its probably something in the BOC3 kernel that is giving you a hard time. Yours wouldn't be the first device that needed to be downgraded or upgraded to successfully gain root. I had to do the same thing with the device I'm using now. The older firmware for my phone is rootable but the newer one isn't, the older had two vulnerabilities that allowed rooting but the newer has been patched so that those two vulnerabilities are gone. This is probably the case for your phone. In fact, I'd be willing to bet that there is no difference between your BOB4 and the BOC3, nothing new or updated functions, just a different kernel, it will probably look, feel and function exactly like the firmware you're currently on.

Verizon Slavery

What's up guys! My noob questions is; Is there any way I can use my Verizon Galaxy Note 4 as a prepaid phone instead of staying with my EXPENSIVE Verizon bill? I would highly appreciate someone guiding me along my journey to break free of these Verizon chains. I would definitely donate to the site if I save money every month! Also what would be the recommended prepaid service? I'm currently running the latest lollipop os on my galaxy note 4. Thanks in advance!!!
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You can definitely go to Page Plus, they aren't too picky about which devices can be used on their network, but they don't give you very much data. As for taking it to other prepaid providers, Verizon usually doesn't like their devices that are setup on a monthly plan to be taken to prepaid. The other providers are also finicky about the 4G devices and devices that come with the hotspot/tether function coming to their network, especially the providers that use another networks towers because they have to pay the network they are using for the data that their customers use and the devices that have the hotspot function have the potential to exceed the "expected" amount of data that they project that the average user uses. You'd get a better answer by contacting the prepaid providers that you'd like to go to. They can tell you whether or not your device can be used on their network. But you'll have to stick with a CDMA provider and you might have to settle for 3G instead of 4G if your device is 4G(which I'm sure your device is).

Where is the recovery.fstab file?

I am trying to port cyanogenmod over to my device, and i can't find the recovery.fstab file. Any idea where it might be?

My tablet is an RCA RCT6103W46 (chinese) that runs android 4.2.2 jellybean...
[General Questions and Answers] Craig_D:
The difference between BOB4 & BOC3 was the SILENT (profiles) issue with Lollipop. I was on BOB4 (upgraded myself with ODIN from 4.4.4) and didn't like not being able to silence the phone without using the Do Not Disturb setting so I found out about BOC3 which had corrected this issue, there was little to no difference between the builds.

So, I decided to give going back to the build mentioned in Chainfire's Auto Root File, BOB4 and the process in ODIN failed! It left my phone softbricked, I think it's called. When I tried to power it up it gave me the warning about the firmware encountrered an error while upgrading and to connect to Kies. I followed the advice and connecting to Kies was completely pointless! It didn't recognise my device. I then tried the same process with ODIN to flash the BOB4 firware again and again it failed. So I tried flashing back to the firmware I was on BOC3 and it seemed to work, the phone went back to the state it was prior to trying to 'downgrade' so to speak but I wasn't able to manipulate the phone with touch, it wouldn't let me use the device and after a few minutes I pulled the battery and powered up again and the same thing happened. This time it reset itself after a couple of minutes so I pulled the battery and went into Samsung Recovery and performed a factory reset and so far, fingers crossed, it seems to have worked. However, I have had 2 warnings that KLMS Agent has stopped during the set up process, I believe this to be Knox?? The phone is currently restoring itself. During the restore process the Reactivation Feature required me to sign into my Samsung Account because of, I'm not exactly sure the warning but words to the effect that, an error had occured during an upgrade. Could this reactivation Feature have something to do with my problems or am I just clutching at straws and talking bollocks now??

I think someone upstairs is trying to tell me something and perhaps I should start listening to them :rolleyes:
[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
The reason it will fail is because it won't install with a custom recovery . You need to use stock recovery. But, you can pull that from the OTA.

Download the OTA, and choose "install later", then transfer it to your PC and open it with 7zip.

Look for the firmware.zip, and unzip it. Inside will be the recovery.img.

These instructions don't apply to Samsung devices, of course. It's a little more complicated with them.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Don't you just LOVE Knox? I'm not too familiar with Knox, I avoid the Knox devices. I don't know if its Knox giving you a hard time, hopefully someone here that is familiar with Knox can better answer that for you, sorry but there's a reason why I avoid the Knox devices. I'm sure I could deal with Knox with no issues but I'd just rather not deal with the potential headaches.

[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
Yes, also that. You need an unmodified system partition. That means uninstall all of your Xposed modules, then uninstall Xposed itself. Flash the stock recovery, then apply the OTA. Some devices also need the bootloader to be re-locked.

But this all started way before Lollipop. I'm not sure when exactly. I've never taken an OTA, except for one when I first bought my Nexus 7, and it prompted to OTA out of the box.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
That makes more sense, thanks, I didn't even consider asking whether they had a custom recovery or stock recovery, even though I already knew that it would clash with custom recovery. It wasn't my first brainfart and certainly won't be the last, lol. I assumed they were on stock rooted.

I kinda dread it but it looks like if I'm going to continue to help Sammie users in the foreseeable future then I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and get a Knox device and learn its weaknesses and/or benefits. I'm not looking very forward to it though, I have a tendency to lose my patience so I may smash the first Knox device I deal with if it gets to be too much of a pain, lol.

Yeah Knox indeed!! I have been successful now, thankfully! and I think it was either Knox OR Samsung's Reactivation Lock feature. Knox wasn't active on my device but it did have administrative privileges BUT Reactivation WAS enabled. When I deactivated these features Rooting worked with no trouble! I can't have been the only person to suffer this surely? or maybe I am the only fool, likely!

Oh well, onwards and upwards.

Here, this is for your model number but you need to make sure that this is for the same stock firmware that you have, if you have the same firmware that this works on then you're good to go but if you have a different firmware it may not work. It just depends on whether the manufacturer has devices of that model with newer firmware or not.

Download the proper recovery onto your PC, and rename it to recovery.img, then place it into your fastboot folder.

Hook up the tablet to your PC, and get into ADB/fastboot.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader.

That will replace the wrong one you have now.

You have to download it to your PC. It isn't in your tablet.

You can download the whole SDK tools package from Google, but it is quite large, and most of it is only used by developers and not the casual user.

So, download this minimal version which is much smaller, and will give you everything you need.

[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
It says ADB server is out of date. You may need to get a newer version. Download the SDK tools from Google and uninstall the minimal if this doesn't work:

Try adb reboot bootloader. If you get to bootloader, use the instructions I provided earlier. Also, you don't need to erase recovery, the new recovery overwrites the old.

Also, tell me the device you own. All I know is it's a tablet. The exact model would be beneficial.

I use zarchiver, the nandroids are .tar and zarchiver handles that file type that among others, this can be done from the device itself, download it from the playstore. I haven't used the PC methods, I'm sure someone here does, if that's the way you'd rather learn how to do it but zarchiver works for me.

Open zarchiver then navigate to your recovery/backup folder and select the nandroid you want then open/view or extract the data.tar with the most bytes if you want user apps, open/view or extract the system.tar if you want system apps, then go to the app folder in either of the tars you extracted and find the apps you're looking for.

Lollipop nandroids are in a different format I believe, I haven't pulled anything from my lollipop nandroids yet so I'm not sure.
