[Galaxy S 5 General] Sektamx:
Good afternoon, thanks to the tutorial and everything they posted it here could upgrade my galaxy s5 which was in demonstration.

Upgrade to lolipop without any problem and leave you ready to install files and tutorial on how to do:

First of all drivers must have come with the kies program that can be downloaded from the official website of Samsung.

FILES NEEDED

1 - Rom stock 5.0 pre compiled https://mega.co.nz/#!gBhTlS6C!DLdxbV_YyMAXBVYwOyiTtG3-0NODX7t4dgd2lii-DLs

2 - Odin v3.09 https://mega.co.nz/#!YZ52xIoS!a-EXHzOc2lf1KQ1aqlrt_LnF_l072vKjhthhg1c57zA

3 - 6 philz Touch Recovery https://mega.co.nz/#!ZJhRjarI!MC8B8QGfLKb0tWwhX3OUz5Tf0_W1neNFO0ki25YduUU

5 -Ktoonsez Kernel https://mega.co.nz/#!NJg0iJ7D!mny6wzQOGS-wfQw9bMDBFmDuEzhnWjw6_dFXqJN5-ZQ

6 - Root https://mega.co.nz/#!BJwCVBpD!IA9LChMBFa4K5SeBDCaLa8xsYCVprYx61qqwtyNAsUU

AND HERE I leave a link to a folder with ALL FILES

https://mega.co.nz/#F!pRoyUTzK!pALImNrMQgS04-NklWfLeA

INSTRUCTIONS

1-Open Odin 3.09 and connect your phone to downloading mode, the AP option Odin select the file named "ldu900x.tar" and then select start, wait to finish and restart it took a little but when you load the Samsung logo You can remove the battery if you like.

2- Reopen Odin and put your phone in downliading mode again and now flash the file called philz_touch_6.26.2-klte.tar.md5 in AP, this does not take long, waiting and ready to restart.

3 Load a memory MiroSD the KT-SGS5-LP5.0-TW-G900-05.02.2015.zip file, enter the phone microsd, enter recovery mode, choose the option Instal Zip from sdcard 1 and select the file previously loaded, wait for it to install, return to menu and select wipe data factory reset and wipe cache partition, then select reboot and ready !.

4- Finally if you want to have root access on your phone, put your phone back on now flash mode and downloading the file named CF-Auto-Root-klte-kltexx-smg900f.tar.md5 wait for restart and ready.

With this we have a brand new galaxy s5 wifi, it is clear that it will never work to make calls or send messages but everything else works without any problems.

I want to thank the user Junior Cardoso since I based on their tutorial, but I had to compile the rom stock because its link was dead.

Excuse my bad English but use google translator. Greetings and will answer any doubt shortly.

Root not workin

Hi,

I have problems to get root access stay. After a fresh flash i'll get promt to update superSU binaries but everytime phone will fail to do that. Also i cannot get HBO-app to work. Anyone else with same problems?
[Galaxy S 5 General] SpinWing:
Soft bricked our development phone SM-G900x

Hi, One of our games is having multiplayer issues on Google Play due to it not supporting Lolipop.

We figured we would take our Galaxy SM-G900x phone that a client sent us and then using the info that iorya984 posted would do the trick.

Now the phone can still be readied for download with Odin but on boot up it asks for Kies to fix a botched upgrade.

Any help on this would be massively appreciated! We really do not want to buy a new phone. Even if we could flash it with the original SM-G900x rom I would be happy. (save us having to buy 2 phones.)

Has anyone else had the same issue?

Cheers!

Thank you, Junior! The S5 KitKat ROM works perfectly and the S5 Lolipop works almost perfectly.

But I have a question. Can I use a new Lolipop ROM (like 2016 BOJ1, BOK3, etc)?

Or only your precompiled ROM?

Is there a way I can use the newest ROMs? Because your precompiled ROM is actually outdated :\ and the battery drain is very high

Where exactly have to copy the ldu900x.tar?

Because the Cygwin said that it not found.
[Galaxy S 5 General] mielletseed:
it doesn't matter where you copy it to you only have to tell cygwin the exact path to file...

for me it was easier to use TotalCommander with a graphical user interface instead of cygwin command line tool (just a hint)

Hey, i have a G900X that came with a "Galaxy C9 Pro" Ported ROM and with TWRP. I was able to update TWRP to the newest Version, but i would like to use the official lineageOS ROM.

Can i use this tutorial? There's no ".img"-file in the zip of lineageOS.
[Galaxy S 5 General] ashish0304:
Hi,

I've installed as instructed. But, stuck in bootloop. I'm able to enter in recovery mode, before flashing KT-SGS5-LP5.0-TW-G900-05.02.2015.zip. After flashing this zip file, I'm unable to enter even in recovery mode. It is just bootlooping. Please help.

It says in red color

RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
[Galaxy S 5 General] Ing_Emperor:
Ok, i've simply updated the TWRP with the existing TWRP recovery and then simply flashed the newest lineageOS Rom for klte (SM-G900F).

It runs without a flaw, i am really happy. You can Flash SM-900F TWRP and SM-G900F lineageOS without any Problem on SM-G900X :)
[Galaxy S 5 General] mielletseed:
good to know but this is not really a surprise sice the devices are almost identical besides the missing radio chip
[Galaxy S 5 General] Ing_Emperor:
You're right but i think the partitions are different because of the missing modem part?

Why would you Need this tutorial on first post of this thread if you could simply Flash every SM-G900F stuff on SM-G900X?
[Galaxy S 5 General] mielletseed:
Because the tutorial describes how to flash a stock rom which almost always contains the radio firmware. You have to remove that to successfully flash a stock rom. That is what the tutorial says.

A custom rom (compiled from sources, not a modified stock rom) doesn't contain radio (that's why you could download the radio firmware separately in many cases to upgrade radio even when you use a custom rom).

The tutorial doesn't change partitions and in fact the partitions are not different (or okay, the hidden partition sometimes is much larger to fit the demo files). I did it in some cases (flash a changed partition layout to gain the memory of the hidden partition back) but in this tutorial this is not mentioned. You would need a special file and do special settings in ODIN.

All what you flash with TWRP (custom roms) doesn't care about partition sizes (besides it must fit into the partition) but flashing with TWRP never changes your partitions!

So in fact, if you just want to use a custom ROM you wouldn't need this tutorial. You always can first flash TWRP with ODIN and afterwards your prefered custom rom, since the hardware is identically.

Many thanks to you, iorya984! I've wasted so much time trying to flash this g900x with g900f firmwares, almost lost hope, and then found this thread and it all went smoothly, except that I had to remove files from .tar via gitbash. Cygwin won't find the archive wherever folder i put it in. And gitbash did it for me. Thanks alot!

I have trouble flashing my G900X with any ROM other than KitKat 4.4.2. It's getting stuck at the Samsung boot logo every time.

[Galaxy S 5 General] Julaaaan:
I have the same problem! As far as i know you need a Marshmello bootloader and modem if you want to flash Android 6+ Samsung based roms. In my case it workes wis AOSP rom perfectly fine, but for example the G900F 6.0.1 Stock rom doest work. So you would need a Android 6 Bootloader and modem extra made for the g900x. but as far as i know there aren't any. Maybe alexndr will make some. So my question is is there any other way to get Samsung based Marshmello firmware running on the G900X or is it impossible?
[Galaxy S 5 General] superfly86:
I am wondering about it too? Any custom rom possible to write on G900X ? Or maybe someone has backup of original FW?
[Galaxy S 5 General] superfly86:
Has anyone of you prepared FW with 5.0 or 6.0 android for G900X ?

Ok I have prepared firmware myself using total commander, i downloaded FW from the internet accorfing to my Region and opened it by total commander. I deleted unnecessary files which are listed on the first page, and after that used odin to write it on my phone. But after that phone can't start, its stopping on samsung logo and thats it ;/

i've check that some people could write IMEI on their LDU device, Note3 and other.

how can we do same for G900X LDU?
[Galaxy S 5 General] mielletseed:
What would this be good for? The demo unit boards I know are missing the antenna connector. So with an IMEI but no antenna, what could you do, what not was possible before?
[Galaxy S 5 General] babydanou:
Are you sure that LDU have no GSM Antenna?
[Galaxy S 5 General] mielletseed:
The Samsung demo devices I know and own and opened (for example the i9195X S4 Mini or the N7100X Note 2) have no antenna-connector on the motherboard and no antenna. For that devices you could use them as a phone by using the board and the antenna from a smashed device.

So I suppose the G900X to having no antenna and antenna connector too.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Anton0126:
g900x

В устройстве g900x есть антенны GSM. Они заблокированы на программном уровне. Для того чтобы он видел спутники и sim карту, достаточно прошить оригинальной прошивкой AP_G900FXXU1ANCE_1182732_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 и после восстановить при помощи retail mode и отпечаток пальца тоже будет работать. А вот как разблокировать для прошивки :

BL_G900FXXU1ANCE_1182732_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5

CP_G900FXXU1ANCE_REV00_CL1523427.tar.md5

CSC_OXE_G900FOXE1ANCC_1138008_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5

KLTE_EUR_OPEN.pit

Это ???????????????????????????????????????: (
[Galaxy S 5 General] babydanou:
it's not possible to solder an antenna chip or just insert an antenna wire?
[Galaxy S 5 General] mielletseed:
Why don't you just try it?

Beside the missing antenna connector I remember one or two chips missing on one of the boards. But maybe that are all minor problems an we all ob us can get the S5 very cheap by buying demo units and solder some chips and some wires ... :D

For the older devices I do not know about one single case of getting them fully functional.
[Galaxy S 5 General] iorya984:
Hi guys! I wanna thank so much Shebi and mielletseed for helping people here.

I've opened this thread only for help people with LDU an for a good usage of it.

I'm sorry if I have no time to be present here.

I confirm that LDU has no antenna (also GPS does not work because of this) so, a LDU can be used only like a beautiful "tablet".

Thank you guys for your support! :)

works great

Hi people I just tried it on my S5 LDU I got from work and it works just fine for me ^^ still trying to get the fingerprints reader going but even without it, I'll manage.

Turns out inside your Cygwin installation folder you have a "home" folder, inside which you have another folder with your username on it. (for example on my computer its "e:\cygwin\home\zero"

It is that folder with your username where you have to put the ldu900x.tar file, or else you will get the error message "file not found in the archive. In case there is already a ldu900x.tar file in that folder you should just delete it it is useless.

Hope it will works as fine for everyone here as it did for me ^^
