Greetings:

I own a Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 2 S. I rooted it and used TWRP which is running along with superuser and busy box. Still the stock ROM though and I am happy with it that way.

The latest OTA update was pushed out and every 5 days the device asks me to update or defer. I have tried updating several times but it always begins the process then TWRP opens after going through the opening screens and it says the update failed.

I did some reading and learned that if I accept this update I will lose Foxfi, which I use heavily. (I work for a school system that does not let us use the wireless, so I use my device as my hotspot.

Can anyone help me? I would either : a. like to accept the update while keeping the root and Fox Fi. Or b. Stop the update notices. (It's also weird because I was asked to set up a lock screen password and can't figure out how that happened. I'd like to remove it too since it's such a huge pain in the butt.

Is there any way to use TWRP to take the OTA update and still keep root and Fox Fi capability?

Device info: Android VErsion 4.1.2 Baseband i605VRAMC3 Kernel 3.0.31-4144933 se.infra@SEP-112#1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Oct 28 13:34:23 KST 2012 Build Number JZO54K.I605VRAMC3

I am no where near tech savy enough to know what any of the above means, so would appreciate someone helping me!

Thanks

I must say that this is so far not possible....You can try 4.3 rom released by beans.... It's the same except the knox and locked bootloader.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
If I was you, I would not accept the update. I would install the newest TWRP from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2045829

Then I would make a back up of your current ROM. Then download a 4.3 ROM from here, (If you want the purest stock it would be Beans Rom that he posted, stock, rooted, no knox stuff). Also, download the Wifi/Modem MJ9 package he posted. Wipe clean x3, then install his 4.3 ROM, then boot to make sure it works, reboot into download mode, Open Odin 3.07, check the PDA box, the select file to place into PDA box (MJ9radio.tar), hit go, wait for it to finish and say pass. The wipe clean again x3, then boot into rom and your baseband for say MJ9 and Build Number should say 4.3. To make sure the MJ9 modem was accepted, you will have service and WIfi will work. If not you will see "Unknown Baseband"

Solved - SGH1717D - (Telus) (Reboot Issue)

Hello,

My phone had the same problem, and even the phone repair shops said they can't fix it. I finally found the solution:

At stockroms.net they have the file StockROMs.net-SGH-I717D_Telus_1_20120630122852_xxzc97o421.zip which will solve your problem.

Just pull your battery, re-insert, and hold power, home, and down volume to get it to the loader screen. Do the flash using the latest Odin, and you should be set.

I updated it on 12/09/2013 and I can only see pictures back until that point and not before! I noticed it too late..

Man I tried every thing I could. ****, I downloaded the entire internal memory and converted it to VHD so I could run Recuva but still most of the recovered files are in huge zips and cant open them with any 7zip/winrar type of software. I downloaded other picture apps and they dont see it either. The SD card has it's stuff still there so thats not a problem.

I have been told its because the first roll out of 4.3 was bad and some people had issues. I want to able to downgrade to 4.1.1 but for some reason most of the methods out there are for people who have a non-stock 4.3 OS and not the OTA update.

Can anyone help me? I really want those pictures/videos back! :(

So, how can I go back to 4.1.1? It might be my last chance to get it right. I have Clockwork recovery and tried to put on the stock tmobile OS but it always fails via Odin and Rom manager. Phone still works. please help! :(

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsmatula:
I have just purchased a new tab 3 for 50 bucks, (couldn't resist that price) but in my excitement I did not bother to pay attention to the 1 gb data limit which I have already reached watching one movie on flixster. So I have rooted the device and installed twrp thanks to the awesome folks here with the hope that it will lead to the unlimited data highway I so enjoy on my other 9 sprint lines. Is this something that sprint monitors through their servers or will a custom rom or mod hide my data usage from them? I have no wifi except the free hotspot on my s4 but its a lot slower than going online directly with the tab 3.. ie keeps buffering, while direct connection played straight through.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
I'll upload it later today. Forgot all about it sorry.

Firstly, did you flash the SkyHigh kernel after first boot of any ROM? Don't flash directly after ROM flash. Otherwise boot loop. Only after ROM full boot.

Secondly, make sure that you have no tweaks or tweaking apps etc installed.

For the ROM, you need to follow the installation instructions EXACTLY, using correct recovery version and full wipe install.

Other than that, unfortunately, your hardware may not like some of the kernel tweaking or UV etc.

BTW, I'm working on a SkyHigh kernel update. Maybe try that in future "IF" I ever get to release stage.....
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattbuffey:
It's weird, I had the same problem with your ROM on ICS. I was hoping JB would be different, but I got exactly the same stability problem. As you say, it must be something to do with the tweaks that upsets my tab. I can report that CIFS works fine with your kernel though!

I don't want to waste my time with root de la Vega if it doesn't work. Does it work with MJE? But I don't want to trip KNOX either so I don't want to use kingo. Which do you think I should use?

Kingoapp will not trip knox. De la Vega does not work for mje on kingo.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Big Cam:
You have it backwards, Root De La Vega WILL trip knox, where as Kingo WILL NOT trip knox.

On MJE your only option to not trip knox is Kingo. I used it on the version before MJE and it worked fine. Then I updated OTA to MJE and root was preserved but checking the preserve root option in SU pro.

T999 is a example. This Mod work whit Pit.file partition mmcblk0. This is same on all Samsung devices afaik. I only change to N9005_Partial_sys...

If You flashed a new Pit file or Updated by OTA (that can bring one), make new debrick.img .

PS: All People, make your debrick.img and have it on extSdCard by security.

My debrick.img N9005 4.4.2 Kitkat: HERE. Look the THANKS buton if download it.;):)

Flash this Mod attached by Recovery. Saved on internal Sdcard. Copy it to extSdCard.

NOTE: It seems that entire "debricking using microSD" works a little different on Qualcomm-based Samsung phones vs Exynos-based phones - so far all in this thread is about Qualcomm-based models. See post #26 to more details.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:

I looked inside the updater_script from .zip file and it work only whit Pit file partition mmcblk0. Then if we not flashed a pit file from 4.3 to 4.4 the debrik.img must be the same because the pit file is the same. In this case I think it work.

Anyway, by security is easy make one to 4.3 and another to 4.4.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
Look, the debrick.img is made from partition mmcblk0 (PIT) like we can see on updater_script from META-inf of .zip that create it.

One Costumer Rom not touch on Pit file and the Stock Rom, if not have a Pit to flash, is the same. The PIT continue there untouchable.

Then, in my opinion we can make a debrick.img also in this case.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] paul_59:
Don't wish to criticise as this has helped some owners, however if you can recover phone function then by definition it wasn't hard bricked.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] FeralFire:
Soft brick, by definition, is when the phone won't boot up because it doesn't have a valid OS loaded.

Hard brick is when the phone won't even start and show absolutely no response to things like the power button, charging cable, etc.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
I think Yes. See the update_script from META-inf from .zip Mod. You see that it work only whit partition mmcblk0, the Pit file:

package_extract_file("dd", "/tmp/dd");

set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/dd");

ui_print("Data Dump running...");

run_program("/tmp/dd", "if=/dev/block/mmcblk0", "of=/sdcard/debrick.img", "bs=1M", "count=128");;

delete("/tmp/dd");

ui_print("Partial System Dump to debrick.img Complete!!!");

For all that have this partition.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] CekMTL:
What if...

I was just wondering... totally off topic but... in these hard brick cases, I understand that the BL (boot loader)/PIT/etc gets somehow corrupted/erased/destroyed... right?

If so, and we do the recovery method by booting with the SD-CARD that has an "old" bootloader (for example someone creates the unbrick image with the oldest bootloader for us), then when trying to flash with odin, it seems (theory here) we should be able to flash older firmwares that have the same BL as the SD-CARDs BL or newer... right?

Then if that is correct, we could come back from 4.4 BL to 4.3 BL ...?

I am asking here because it seems too easy... surely somehow the BL partition should be privilege protected ...?

Hope no one gets mad with my off topic here...just extremely curious ;)

Thank You!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] FeralFire:

[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
Look, this only work if the device is BRICKED whit QHSUSB_DLOAD on screen, I think.

If someone make the same on one Device working it start always by Your boot from Rom installed, not by extSdCard where are the unbrickable partitions (I made a Sdcard and it have 17 partitions, 16 hidden for windows that only see the first from 64 MB). Only if it is nothing to work on Rom all corrupted, it begin by ext Sdcard.

In my opinion, the debrick.img is made from mmcblk0, the Pit file, and have only all partitions to be recreated on device and may be one bootloader. And give us the way to go to Download Mode and flash by Odin one Rom, because inside there are nothing like contents to work.???

Then... just extremely curious :) This is good, I'm also.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
To test it? How someone can brick his phone to have the QHSUSB_DLOAD, the way to flash by unbrickable sdcard?
