Have received zero usable/understandable info on how to root my note 4

So here goes another try.....Here's the situation....I had a GS4..I broke the screen...I was given my buddies old NOTE4 he wasn't using. Except it was for T-mobile and I'm on AT&T....I hate the note4 unlocked, wanted to root the note4, Finally succeeded, it seemed, in doing so. Except I still had t-mobiles bloatware/programming or whatever. My AT&T sim card was recognized but didn't have the ability to connect to any data/wifi/maps/location type stuff....Tried to find an AT&T based program or whatever to flash with odin. It kinda sorta worked..But still had very bad delays in receiving texts/phone calls and it was impossible to keep a connection with navigation satellites. So then my old man gave me his old S4 and now that's proving impossible to root... I'm so frustrated and about to have a nervous breakdown..I just want all this damn bloatware and bull**** off my phone so I can use it for 3 main purposes..Call/text/navigate......I don't need all this extra CRAP, bloatware, a billion permissions, countless alerts going off every 5 seconds for emails, or other stupid pointless programs that want access to every piece of data in my life! Jesus christ I'm so fed up and pissed...Someone please freaking help me root and clean up either one of my phones!

Hello Everyone!

Initial Question: I really need help with rooting my Note 4, someone who wouldn't mind taking the time to explain some things indepth, I'm not completely Noob at this but what i've been dealing with lately I really want to learn and not just know the steps.

What I've done so far: So I bought my phone from Rent-a-Center at a closeout sale they had, I've tinkered with it here and there, it's always worked great. Lately it was becoming a little buggy I.e battery life, restarting whenever it wanted to, lots of other things i can't explain. One day it got stuck in a bootloop, I'm not sure why or how. So I managed to figure out on my own how to use odin, I flashed? the stock sm-910t ver. 6.0.1, and amazingly enough it worked... I'm so proud of me. Anyways, so i sat thru all the updates and everything and now I know it's full of ... bloatware?... eating away at my battery which now seems more like a countdown rather than a battery notification. I want to root my phone so that i can get all this T-mobile crap and stock apps off, I want to try my hand at streamlining my phone a bit so i can get the most life out of it that I can. I've been reading thru the forums and where I can understand most of it, theres quite a bit that i'm not getting and i'm worried that i'm going to miss something and screw this phone again. I'm brave enough to try if someone might be nice enough to explain some stuff to me like what programs i should be using that work for the build and version i'm on, and some of the smaller stuff inbetween. I'm not worried about tripping knox, it's already done, and since i bought the phone outright, and because it's so old, i don't have anything on it anyways :D

Thanks for reading all that!

Phone is: Model number SM-910T

Version 6.0.1

Baseband Version: N910TUVU2EPJ2

Hi, I have a n910c (exynos) rooted with dn7 rom.<br />

<br />

I just messed up my phone's CSC file and want to restore it to default.<br />

I wanted to enable VOLTE, so I tried my hand in changing the CSC file to that of n910f (snapdragon) as that particular csc was for India and supported the VOLTE feature.<br />

<br />

I downloaded the INU CSC file and placed it in system/csc folder and set the appropriate permission. I then installed the "Phone INFO â˜…Samsungâ˜…" app from play store and changed the CSC to INU. <br />

The phone rebooted into recovery, wiped the data, flashed the file and got "failed" message.<br />

<br />

As expected, this didn't enable the VOLTE feature. And moreover, whenever I turned on the mobile data, the internet connection will only be available only for a few seconds before it stops working. I guess, it has to be related to the CSC.<br />

<br />

I installed the app again, tried to change the CSC which was set earlier but keep getting the "failed" message again and the internet problem still persists. <br />

<br />

I have provided the screenshot of the info shown in the app.<br />

<br />

How do I resolve this problem? Please help.<br />

<br />

<br />

N910W8 Hard Brick

So, as I was trying to Flash my Note 4 [N910W8] Odin fail, right when it was flashing the first most important bits...

Which Hard Bricked my Phone. No LED Light, Nada.

It does however load up as 'Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008' when connected to my Computer [Even without the battery]

Tried some methods I found using the Google, SD Card unbrick trick [Was for N910G, so not really surprised, but I tried]

I have a USB Jig, no Luck with that either, tried using the QFIL Program, but I don't think I had the right files for it,

was using prog_emmc_firehose_8936.mbn I think I need 8084.mbn, but no luck finding that either.

[Posting this first part Mostly because I'd like to Fix without getting a new motherboard, so any advice/things I missed would be awesome! But if all else fails...]

My Real Question!

Can I put a N910T Motherboard into my N910W8?

Ok so I'm not new to rooting/custom ROMs s I've had S2/4/5/A5 and now purchased an unlocked N910F for a good price, my questions are simple

1) is the latest twrp 3.0.3_2 fully functional and working with aroma?

2) I noticed I cannot find AICP for the device so is there and unofficial version?

3) does a note 7 port exist and if so is it fully working.

Many thanks :D:thumbup:

Question on rooting N910V 6.0.1

I apologize for the likely newbie question here (haven't been involved till now in rooting since the first droids came out). I have spent the last four days researching on this site to and working on my phone to get things to work with safetynet and have been coming up failing. I have rooted my note 4 successfully dozens of times over the last four days, but there is always some issue. If I follow one set of instructions to root 6.0.1 to CM13 I end up with a phone rooted (non systemless) with SuperSU. If I back off the instructions and try it on my own from a full 5.0.1 firmware install, use Kingroot, install TWRP, then use TWRP to install SuperSU (2.78) systemless I always end up in a boot loop. If I use the instructions at say: http://xdaforums.com/note-4-verizon/development/howto-bootloader-unlock-upgrade-to-t3398144 I get to the part where it says to root the phone after BPA1 to CPD1 file is installed and refers to the general section for detailed instructions - same boat - SuperSU boot loops the phone. I've gone over the past days dozens of attempts including Magisk with phh's Superuser and have yet to find a setup that works with Safetynet.

So, perhaps I'm a dummy and am missing something obvious but is there an updated post that goes over how to do this in a way that works with safetynet currently. I seem to keep running into deadends on threads that seem outdated.

My end goal - any ROM (stock, custom, I don't care) on Marshmallow or Lollipop that is rooted and passes safetynet checks. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Is there a way to restore s/n besides the change in .sys/ file? The phone does have bootloop/freeze problem, so i decided to try repair it. Before that i wanted to revert s/n to original. No luck. Any other ways to do it?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geniusrafaelus:
Hi All,

I have a note 4 n910f on stock 5.1.1 unrooted and stock recovery.

The problem happened before when I'd lock the phone, I wont be able to unlock it or turn it back on. For me to boot it up I would have to remove the battery.

Then on its reboot, an error would pop up stating: "could not do normal boot mmc_read failed"

Later on I installed CPU Awake and the problem would no longer happen when locking the phone.

The next problem came when I turned it off once. I couldnt boot it back up again. I took the battery out and placed the phone in the freezer for about 10 minutes (i remember reading it somewhere) then I was able to boot it up, still with the same error but it is able to boot normally.

Any advice? Is this more likely a hardware issue?

Thanks:)

My gf has the note 4. She keeps on telling me that someone has done something to her phone to where when she goes to a web page that it is routing her to something else aka a fake page for hacking her stuff. I'm not a master bit I'm tech inclined to a point and galaxy's are my choice. I have found nothing wrong but she Insists there is something. And let me add that when I go Into recovery it has Odin where the lock or unlocked should be on the screen And when I go Into the boot loader it says downloading from Odin.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kawalpreet Juneja:
Can you boot into fastboot mode or recovery? By pressing HOME+POWER+VOLUME DOWN at the same time. If phone wasn't rooted or you didn't mess with system, and you can't boot into fastboot (bootloader) or recovery, that 'Can be' a hardware issue, you'll have to check nearby service centre.

---------- Post added at 08:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:04 AM ----------

Hello,

Recovery and bootloader are 'Okay'. Now there's an option in every web browser for default page. On opening web browser, the set default page will be loaded. Maybe someone set a fake webpage as default page on Home screen of browser?

If not, you'll probably say that she's redirected to the same page every time she try to open any other page. In this case, she might be using WiFi. Ask her to try data connectionor other source. It's every easy to use WiFi for hacking stuff. Hacker can easily modify router for different function without physical access to router. In this case, you'll have to reset WiFi router and change it's password.

If still not satisfactory, you'll need to make backup of useful data and wipe the device and flash the latest firmware using Odin. Also reset the router and change it's password.

Good luck!

Phone is not booting into recovery but I can go into download mode by pressing vol down, home n power.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kawalpreet Juneja:
Try flashing latest firmware from PC using ODIN. Do you need link?

(For recovery combination is POWER+VOLUME UP+HOME. I believe that you know the combination, no offense)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omarrph:
No offense taken brother its just too exhausting to find the solution:(

I downloaded firmware version N910GDTU1DPK5 from updato website which was the most latest one for n910g. Before this problem started it was on November update version ..

I did flashed this firmware using Odin following every step carefully. Odin gave PASSED and phone rebooted but with same half white color bar as shown in picture which I posted earlier and then screen with Samsung note 4 logo and above it was in blue text Recovery Booting... I tried removing battery for a mint and holding power button for 30seconds and then tried to power on. But again same screen and it never goes beyond it . I tried to go manually using vol up,home and power but it didn't open recovery .. I still can access Download mode though ..

How do I solve it and can I get just recovery zip for this phone sm-n910g .. Stock firmware size is more than 1.8gb . if flashing recovery can solve it then kindly provide link of recovery for this phone plz.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kawalpreet Juneja:
Phone try to boot into recovery only when system partition have some corrupted file or is empty.

If it can't boot to recovery, recovery is also missing from it's partition.

Okay then we'll try this step by step.

First, we don't care about booting into system. We gotta boot into recovery. To get control of everything, we'll flash custom recovery TWRP so that there will be no need to turn computer on next time.

Download latest TWRP (for N910G) from here:

https://dl.twrp.me/trltedt/

Read ODIN install method from here:

https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxynote4qualcomm.html

NOTE: IF it's under warranty, don't flash TWRP. It's better to give it to service centre.

Let me know if you can then boot in TWRP or not. If yes, think that your problem is solved!

Good luck!

After completion I unplugged USB cable from phone and removed battery and then waited for min. and then tried manually three finger recovery .. Phone came up with "recovery is not seandroid enforcing " error . what am I doing wrong bro and why my phone is not going into recovery mode.. If it would have gone into recovery I would have option to wipe cache and dalvik cache . or even at least could have had any option to save the data inside of phone but its not going into recovery..

Bewildered...

I've a rooted Canadian (Rogers) Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910W8) on Android 5.1.1 (Lollipop) and would like to update to something newer.

and that's it... I was going to try CyanogenMod (but they're dead now)... I'm bewildered by the options and can't find anything for my specific model.

I'm unable to do an OTA update as I am rooted.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kawalpreet Juneja:
You can try Norma/Aurora ROM (use search option) for your device with specific data fix and kernel. It's pure N7 port.

For official update to marshmallow, download latest firmware for your device and flash using Odin...

You can also try RamRom. It was daily driver for my device (N910G) for about 3 months, but it have some issue with N910W8

It gets hot with just basic Internet browsing, blocks, freezes and reboots at the worst possible moment's! I've reset various times but to no avail.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kawalpreet Juneja:
This is NOT a noob question...

My story is as same as yours. But it was when I was with Stock ROM. I was too stuck with my device. So here, custom ROM named 'RamROM' helped me out. Seriously, it's the best ROM and I used it for about 4 months. Now there are many N7 full port available. Im currently on Dr. Ketan's M7.

Just flash latest Bootloader and modem. Go for RamROM V9 or Dr. Ketan's M7 or Norma V11. Install Ram Kernel. Flash Xposed Framework (option for additional functionality). And DONE! Enjoy your brand new non explosive Note 7!!!

Ask me anything you would like.

I didn't provide link because I think you can find everything yourself. Though you can ask for it...

Little heating will remain. It'll heat a lot while ROM installation else, everything is perfect!

Maybe both of our phones are not made for stock:p

File recovery after deletion

Hi everyone,

I have a Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910C)

I'm trying to recover (undelete) a certain .amr file that my "Automatic Call Recorder" app recorded but later deleted (it only saves the last 1000 calls).

I did not save the file on time and it was deleted about 5 days ago.

The file was saved on phone storage (not SD card)

I rooted my phone (As explained on https://xdaforums.com/general/xda-assist/sm-n910c-note-4-root-fail-t3532218 ), and tried an app called "Undeleter" (paid), but it found loads of .amr files that was mostly unplayable and was all showing as 10mb file size.. (In other words, it didn't work).

What is the best way to try and undelete files? Any good solution? I don't mind if it's on windows or android and don't mind doing some hard work if I have to.. (that file is really important!)

Any input will be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance!

Hello.

Once, while installing Windows, I formatted my whole data partition by mistake! So I downloaded paid version of EaseUS data recovery and believe me it was able to recover most of the data and most of the files were in good condition.

You can try this on your PC to see the result.

Now, when I searched, I found that it's also available for Android. Download EaseUS Android data recovery, follow instructions on their official website, and maybe you'll be able to recover? I can't be sure as I've not used it. But I can make you sure that it's Windows recovery work perfect.

Okay no problem.

Let me make a guide for you:

1). Install Odin on your PC. (Link at the bottom)

2). Install Samsung Galaxy Note 4 drivers. (Link at the bottom)

3). Turn off your phone.

3). Boot your phone into download mode by pressing Volume Down+Home+Power at the same time.

4). If bootloader is already unlocked, no problem, else all data will be deleted. So make a backup before doing that.

5). Connect your phone to PC.

6). Put recovery file in AP tab of Odin and hit start.

7). Phone will reboot. And I guess, you already know about recovery?

8). Again Shut down your device.

9). Boot into recovery using Power+Volume up+Home at the same time.

10). Flash provided SuperSU zip.
