Does this need to be done Stock or can it work on Rooted Stock? I've tried this like 3 times and it still doesn't change and info under Device Info.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] slimc84:
Power phone off completely. Then hold Power + Vol Down + Home button to boot into download mode. Then press Vol Up to continue. Once in Download mode, plug phone into computer and ODIN.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Darkness30XX:
I did all of that. More than once and it still isn't changing.

I got ne6 modem and flashed firmware still says ne5 on build number on alliamce beta 2 is it supposed to sayw ne6 sinced I flashed firmware or ne5 simce alliance beta 2 build is ne5 I want to know how can I tell if the firmware flash went thru?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Mr Impossible:
Try using Odin 3.07 This version has flashed all of these odin images just fine on several phones.

Odin v3.07
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] 808phoneaddict:
I just Odin the modem only, and I too have by seen a change in my baseband...I'd assume it went thru, can't tell much right now signal wise either

Edit: I also used 3.07

Thank you very much, for whatever reason that worked for me, flashed firmware and now modem is ne6!

Firmware NE6 only doesn't stick for me either. Tried both odin 7 & 9. Any suggestions? Don't want to have to unroot just to flash firmware. NE6 modem worked fine.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] jjroc1:
Wish i could be of more help but i tried with Odin 3, flashed just modem and it wouldn't stick after i tried everything. Then i tried the ne6 firmware this morning (still on Odin 3) pulled battery...nothing. Came home saw that post about trying Odin 7 so i did and it stuck. Didn't have to pull the battery or anything. So that is what i did i know it is not very helpful but it was a process. Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] rpolito73:
Just saw he has the NE6 post..... just flash off that
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] koolboyztn:

Will those "modified" flashable-in-Odin tars trip KNOX ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] BeansTown106:
the builds are pretty close to the same thing with the exception of the modem so they very well could have just left the ne5 bootloader.

modem and firmware tar will put u on e6 baseband. full stock tar will put you on e6 baseband and build number

spent the past hour trying to flash the modem via twrp and it is not sticking that way so there could possiibly be some protection in place to only flash firmware via odin/download mode. i will look into it more it could also just be a twrp problem but for now we gotta just use odin. its safer anyways. :/

they shouldnt as the files in them are completely unedited

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] phonic:
There seemed to be contradicting info in the thread, so I just wanted to point out that I flashed the full stock image and it did NOT wipe my device.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fknfocused:
Please read the thread. Dev just posted a few posts above yours and said he has issues getting modems to flash via recovery, so flash via odin

others along with myself had issues when using mobile version. Flash doesnt stick and we had to resort to flashing via odin
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] kheltek:
So - and I apologize for beating a dead horse - for those of us without a PC, we are out of luck until we can connect to one? Meaning there is no way to flash using a mac or any third party app?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fknfocused:
Unfortunately, yes. As far as I know, odin is a pc based application and I havent heard of any other 3rd party apps successfully flashing whats in OP.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Dr. Fed:
I was stock NCH, not rooted. Used the linked Odin 3.09 to flash the full stock NE6 tar following a shutdown, battery pull, and boot into download mode. No troubles using the USB 3.0 cord on a 2.0 USB port of my laptop. Most interestingly, as someone said before, all user data was saved. I was totally expecting a full wipe.

As promised, device status official and Knox untripped 0x0.

I just flashed ne6 on PI version 5 and so far all is good no drop call or miss calls for the whole day I was on. Thank you for the sharing
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] BeansTown106:
probably just a minor update. its probably the same as our ne6, just "branded for metropcs"

i have honestly never used it. i used to hear tons of good things about it back in the day but lately it seems more hit or miss.

i havent but im not everyone.

hmm maybe there is still an issue with the ne6 modem.. well i guess best bet for ne5>ne6 based roms would be to run the ne6 firmware and then flash nch modem if you have issues. with calls/data

anytime :)

PS- Quick update on the flashable modems. i have noticed a new area on the s5 that is set to r/o and it looks like that is where the modem gets extracted to after odin'ing it. currently twrp doesnt have the capabilities as far as i know to set it to R/W :/ still looking more into this. but if anyone is on stock rooted nch/ne5 and gets an ota notification for ne6 please grab the update.zip from /cache/fota for me it might be able to help me make flashable zip modems easier.

According to sammobile.com , the ANE7 is for the t mobile variant, stating that the T1 (metro) is actually t mobile carrier dependent.

I don't know what the difference is in 6 - 7 , I just wanted to bring it to your attention.

Does this sounds right for what you need?

1. Odin back to stock ANCH everything, unrooted.

2. Download the update, but don't auto install.

3. Root and copy the update.zip to my copy/drop box

?

Also, the location of update.zip should be in here, correct?

Under the device tree?

when you flash using odin, use the third option for modem / firmware, CP.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Skyrocket2:
I actually still have odin v1.85.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] GuyInDogSuit:
Yeah, but I can't pick the CP option, nothing but AP is enabled.

EDIT: Nevermind, I used v1.8.5 and all options were enabled. However, after flashing the modem only tar, nothing has changed.

How do I update the bootloader, baseband and PDA? They're all old versions even though I've flashed both the firmware- and modem-only tars, using the third option (phone) like you said.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] BeansTown106:
weird hmm.. maybe that itself is in a hidden folder/partition as well lol

seems ne6 didnt stick and also looks like you are on and inernational rom which is why the pda says 900f

grab the firmware only tar, shut off the phone completely and pull battery. replace battery and hold volume down home and power to boot into download mode. then add the firmware only tar to the AP slot. i have always used AP and it works. then flash the tar via odin might take a couple times but it will eventually stick. seems the key to it is shutting phone off and pulling battery first.

if all else fails u could just flash the full stock tar via odin and then odin twrp and restore backup
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] em0ney14:
which 900 do you have? Is it the 900t?

T-Mobile Galaxy S5
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] GuyInDogSuit:
I tried Odin flashing the stock tar, which then got me what you see in the attached image. Bootloader and baseband are still ANCH. I'll try your above suggestion.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Ian the Great:
Heres a way for people that want to flash the updated modem without connecting to a PC.

I was able to flash the NE6 modem using Mobile Odin, Triangle away and Flashify. It's a bit of a chore, but i got it to work using just my phone. No computer and wont lose root.

There a few photos to help explain the steps below. (You may not neccesarily need to do all of this. I just know that these are the steps that I did before successful flash.)

1. Download and extract both the modem.tar.md5 AND firmware.tar.md5 of the baseband that you want to flash. After extracting these you will get:

G900T_ModemOnly_NE6.tar.md5

G900T_FirmwareOnly_NE6.tar.md5

2. Make sure you are on STOCK recovery and STOCK Kernel.

If you are on a custom recovery,(e.g. philz, twrp) this method won't work.

I pretty sure that stock kernel is also neccessary. I havent tried using other than stock kernel, so i cant say for sure 100% that it wont wont work.

If you have a custom recovery installed you can restore your stock revovery or flash your stock recovery .img with the Flashify app.

After flashing your stock recovery, reboot into recovery.(flashify will ask you. Choose yes)

Once you are in recovery just reboot into android.

3. Now open Triangle Away and check the boxes for 'Auto reset at boot' 'Allow tracker to run' and 'Periodic system modified reset'

Then hit 'Reset flash counter' button.

After reset, the Triangle Away 'Current status' should now show:

Counter: 0

Binary: Official

Device: SM-G900T

System: Official

Now manually reboot (restart system) using the phone's power button.

(This reboot may not be neccesary, but it's the way I did it the time I got this to work.)

4. Open Mobile Odin and you will see the mountable partitions. You are going to flash the modem and modem #2 partitions.

For modem #1 you will use: G900T_FirmwareOnly_NE6.tar.md5

For modem #2 you will use: G900T_ModemOnly_NE6.tar.md5

You will be flashing in the Modem Partitions ONLY. If you flash firmware in other partitions it will probably brick your phone. (see photos for what Mobile Odin should look like before you confirm flash).

Scroll down to 'Flash Firmware' and confirm. Your phone will then reboot into recovery and Mobile Odin will flash the files and reboot the phone for you.

After the system reboots, go into settings and your baseband version should now read:

G900TUVU1ANE6.

Note. This will only flash the modem. You will still have the same (ANCH) bootloader.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] GuyInDogSuit:
OK, so I've followed the above instructions, and now everything except PDA is ANE6. PDA is again G900FXXU1ANE2. WTF. Why is it G900F? Is it because of my ROM (based on ANE2)?

View attachment 2802911
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] em0ney14:
I believe so.

I'm on ANE6 firmware and modem, and allianceROM v2 which is based on ANE5.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] rockingondrums:
I actually just flashed back to stock NCH and my bootloader shows custom / custom. :/ I'll reflash it...

UPDATE: Yep, one more round of Odin did it.

I've managed to update my modem using AP, but it seems like that option is hit or miss for most people. I could've sworn in another thread someone said the new Odin has everything go in AP... As long as it works, I guess.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
I probably have spent the last 8 hours trying to get updated to NE6 modem. Noticed that when I tried to use the Modem only file I was getting nowhere either with Odin or Mobile Odin. would NOT update the baseband. Noticed that in TWRP recovery when mobile Odin shut down to do the flashing, a super quick message was displaying that memory protection enabled preventing flashing and that possibly Triangle Away would fix. This was really quick on the screen before I rebooted so I may be a bit off on the exact message that appeared. Gave up for a bit. Did more reading here to use the NE6 firmware file instead of the modem only. Same crazy issue. Reboot and ANCH Baseband still there. BTW I was on the XNote ROM latest V3 just posted last days or so. I intentionally installed Beans rootdeodex stock rom just because I was ready to give up. Didn't want to go thru the longer scenario posted on one way Mobile Odin worked for one user.

Shut off the phone. (Did NOT Pull battery because PITA with the Lifeproof waterproof case, to crack open.) Loaded up up the Firmware only version in Odin, powered up to download mode hit Start in Odin and voila....all is updated to NE6. Tested LTE speed and posting screen shots. Download speeds are about the same..in the high 30's, but my uploads which have always been really crappy in my home are now really decent, as far as I'm concerned. Posting this more for all here, but I know your PDA will show NE6 if you're on an NE6 ROM. About to Flash the new Infinity 6 too, BTW :good::fingers-crossed:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] ejamin73:
Ok. Out of curiosity I installed Kies & hook up my phone & got this message

Current firmware version : PDA:NCH / CSC:NCH / PHONE:NCH (TMB)

Latest firmware version : PDA:NE6 / CSC:NE6 / PHONE:NE6 (TMB)

I'm on Alliance B1.

If I update via kies, What do I losse/gain????

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] GuyInDogSuit:
Yeah, funny thing was, I had flashed the stock image, and it only updated the PDA, but not the baseband and bootloader. D'oh! I did the battery pull and reboot into download thing, flashed the firmware-only tar, and it worked that time.

I don't think you CAN update via Kies. It will just say your firmware has been modified and cancel. I think it's because of root, but it might be the custom ROM if you have one. If you're stock, then it might work, and you won't lose your personal apps and data. I recommend flashing the firmware-only tar, though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] ejamin73:
Ok thanks. I'll give it a try & report back
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] finotti:
I've just flashed the firmware. (Baseband show ne6.) But my fingerprint scanner stopped working.
