Well this took some figuring out, as many said it had to be rooted first

well NO it does not

Now this only work on the SM-900F with the bootloader unlocked basicallysold in the EU to any Network and branded

eg Vodafone.Orange,O2,Three(as long as there is no three Logo if so the bootloader is locked)

so here is what you need

the Latest version of Odin

The latest Version of kies as it is needed (Yes i said that )

Now Your countrys unbranded rom this can be tricky to find but for example the UK its BTU

they also can be found on here in the stock Firmware section ( i'm sure some one will post a link as they have got berried somewere)

But they can be found on sammobile.com

now download the rom

Now if you have never used odin before please read up on this first i'm not going to do a Noobs guide

Now do a Factory wipe and wipe the cache in recovery mode first

Open odin and pit the phone into recovery mode with out it rebooting

Flash the stock rom

Now long gone are the days of multiple csc so here is how to fix

Now before some one jumps in and says Oh XDA do a app to sort this (Only works on rooted phones)

Now after the rom has flashed let the phone Boot

Now Google apps may fall over here but the factory wipe sorts them out

Now nearly there, as we all no if you plug your phone into kies it does not like it

Well this time as long as you have got the right rom it will show a long line of rom info

Now for the fun bit open kies and connect your phone

then klick tools and pic firmware upgrade and initialisation Kies will come up with a warning screen

Just click next and watch the magic happen

Kies will see that you have a stock BTU rom on But the CSC is something else so

It re downloads the rom and clears the previous CSC out

I did use the xda phone info to check the CSC and on mine it should before Kies VOD/BTU

After Kies it showed BTU

Now kies says i Have a BTU phone and the firmware is upto date

I have done six differant phones now on verious networks and they work

the Three ones are hard but rolling the rom back to the first one cleared the Bootloader then i flashed the stock rom

There was no rooting or Knox tripping or custom roms used

Pure Samsung roms

This was only done to remove bloatware
[Galaxy S 5 General] arghness:
A lot of the G900F branded ROMs (such as EE) are now BNL9, and there doesn't appear to be an unbranded BTU for BNL9 that I can find on SamMobile -- is it therefore not possible to change CSC without tripping Knox now?
[Galaxy S 5 General] Northern.dj:
Knox will only trip if you use a Custom rom

if your on EE and on 4.4.2 install the first 5.0 rom from sammobile and follow the Kies above

if you have installed 5.0 from EE you can roll this back Using kies see bellow

Enter your phones model and serial number with out it plugged in it will then offer you what roms were installed pick the last 4.4.2 then follow the onscreen instructions

after its rolled back follow the above

I only no this works via 4.4.2 and going up to 5.0 that triggers kies to change the csc over

after you have done this putting the first 5.0 in Kies will even update the phone or you can via the wifi update

I have done six phones now and all is well and Samsung told me how to do this so no warranty other then the ee is void

make sure you use Sammobile only roms
[Galaxy S 5 General] -PiLoT-:
"This was only done to remove bloatware"

nothing youve described removes bloatware, jus changes the bloatware on it, BTU still has chaton ant+ and loads of other crap, to debloat you do need root, but not to debrand, but then again we all knew that cause we read the firmware thread where this has been mentioned three times minimum
[Galaxy S 5 General] Northern.dj:
Were not on about the Bloat manufactures put on, this is Debranding removing the pointless junk networks add that the user can not remove or dissable

most of what you have said can be disabled in Application manager

if the user chooses when there on BTU to root its alot safer on a BTU stock rom then a Network rom

eg on Vodafone if you remove the RCS program you will not be able to send a txt using the default messages apk as Vodafone has removed this

Rooting is not compulsary in debranding and if your simply doing this to sell on the phone then there is no need to, and should only be done if this is what you want to do

But my method is just the first step in getting a Clean phone ready to Root this prevents any issues in the rooting Proses

i have fixed many phone on Network roms that people have mad a mess off

Plus when it come to re selling a phone a unbranded fetches more money and if Knox has not been triggared then the warrenty still stands
[Galaxy S 5 General] one-option:
Lte network selection

ok I have a question guys

I have a g900f but in the network selection there is no Lte or 4G selection, my phone was using Malaysian firmware ( I didn't check if it does have Lte network selection) and then I flashed XSG (united Arab Emirates) firmware, so If I flashed unbranded firmware like Poland or UK .......... can I get the Lte network selection or no ???!!!!

how I can get 4G with out root or custom rom
[Galaxy S 5 General] -PiLoT-:
TBH i never new rooting caused any issues, not for people of intelligance anyway. but anyway, in the EU knox doesnt void warranty
[Galaxy S 5 General] Northern.dj:
Not every one that come on here is flaunt with rooting, or knows how to

or even wants to

this is why they have there own section and stops the Noob bashing

after all we all started some were :rolleyes:

My Method simply does what it says with our rooting :good:
[Galaxy S 5 General] arghness:
It stops some apps that I use from running (banking, in particular). Other than that I'd definitely root for the better Tasker functionality it offers (my older phones used for various other things around the house are all rooted but I want banking on my primary device)
[Galaxy S 5 General] Northern.dj:
Rooting for some has its Good points

But its better on a vanilla rom which has all the nasty Network traps removed, so then its then only manufacture apps

Plus if there is any issues with a Root then the developer can take a look

also you get the firmware updates still, but you will need to do a Factory wipe to remove the root

For some just braking away from the chains of the Network is enough

in the UK Networks have no idea

Hey guys

I'm on the official v10g available on three. Did anyone of you flashed the latest available version available for D855 (I believe it's v10j or 10k)? How does it work? Did you exerienced any kind of issues using unbranded firmware?

Forgot to mention I'm rooted.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BioVolt:
I have been using v10j since it came out.

I have no issues and it is the best one for me.

I went straight from v10a at the time, rooted and soon after flashed v10j.

I can't compare to the official v10g because I have never used it.

I wouldn't bother with v10k vodaphone firmware as I have only read mixed reviews with regards to it.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PuffTheMagic:
What exactly is the distinction between kltespr and klte. I have a Sprint Galaxy S5 with sim card and gsm capabilities. When I try flashing roms my device is reported as klte. Is the something that is hardcoded into the recovery rom that is doing the flashing or is that something lower? Are there sprint S5s out there that don't have gsm and sim cards? Could that be the distinction?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pro_granade:
That still has to do something the the updater-script, the recovery you flashed is made for a device called klte but the rom is for kltespr, THIS IS A MISTAKE BY [MENTION=4193338]CyanogenMod[/MENTION] xD
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PuffTheMagic:
I was just trying to be clear I was not trying to ask how to flash kltespr on klte. Still though, I highly doubt kltespr is a cyanogenmod mistake. There has to be a reason why there are difference device names out there.

If you go to the CyanogenMod downloads they now have nightlys for the klte variant. Happy flashing!!!!!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ajoh99:
Hi all,

Working with a AT&T NC1 safestrap phone. Having problems getting any custom rom to boot. Phone usually shows white on black Samsung logo for a few second then restarts, sometimes into stock recovery.

Detailed below is my method, and methods tried with same result. Perhaps someone can see the error of my ways.

I have been trying to start fresh.... so:

1) Odin I337UCUFNB1_TWRootable_Full_Odin.tar.md5

2) Do not boot, Download mode and flash 2400258.zip

3) Install tr, and SS 3.72

4) Reboot into recovery, install Hyperdrive 18.1 or Gravitron S4 3.2 for SS, then flash SuperUser then NC1 module.

No matter what, I cannot get a rom to boot. Just hangs at Samsung logo

Other methods tried:

1) Using I337_NB1toNC1_KeepRoot_OTA.zip and/or I337_NB1toNC1_KeepRoot_OTAwBL.zip to flash to NC1 before custom rom (after Odin NB1) (instead of 2400258.zip)

2) Using NB1 Odin Files from Magic Tool BL,AP,CP before flash of custom rom, tried also after flashing custom rom

3) flashing NB1 stock kernel

4) flashing NC1 stock kernel

Tried maybe 30 or 40 times, cannot get a custom Rom to boot. To be clear, stock boots just fine whenever i Odin back and upgrade to NC1.

Anyone out there insightful enough to lend a hand? More detailed instructions than on INDEX ALL THINGS POST? See my mistake? Losing my mind just a little bit, flashing the days away...

Any help greatly appreciated!

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsgates:
Has anybody else been disappointed by the App offerings on the FireTV so far? A big thing for me is the continued lack of an update to the WatchESPN app with support for the SEC Network & Longhorn Network. What is taking them so long on the FireTV. Roku & AppleTV have both already been updated the same as the standard Google Play app. Yes, I know I can sideload that version, but then I have to use a mouse to navigate. It seems like Amazon is still kind of lacking in the content department on this thing........and that's why I'm glad to have root. XBMC/KODI alone makes the hardware worth it.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyder:
I don't have a problem with the amount of Apps that work with the AFTV. Sure, i wish I had more that worked, so I get on the case of the people putting apps out. What the problem is to me, is most companies don't care about the set top boxes when they make their phone & tablet apps. So I reach out to them. For instances, the UFC app is Portrait when it begins, doesn't work on the AFTV. I've been sending emails to them asking for them to support Landscape mode at the start, so it's compatible with set top boxes, like the AFTV.

You want the ESPN app? Start bothering whom ever makes it to support the AFTV. That is the only way you'll probably get it faster. In fact, I suggest anyone who has an AFTV and wants a certain app to work to contact the publisher/developer on it. The more of us that do it, the better the chances they might get coding.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsgates:
Already has it but not up-to-date......

Well the problem with the WatchESPN app is that it's already available on the AFTV, but the AFTV version is older than the current standard version for Android. I've been following this thread here over on the Android Central Forums, and it looks like Amazon has said they have received the updated version of the app from ESPN and are "optimizing it for the FireTV"......but it looks like that was back in August. The complaint here is, why does it take them over 2 months to update the AFTV version of the app. The WatchESPN app is also available on AppleTV & Roku, & from what I have read, those STB devices have the latest features (SEC & Longhorn Networks).

So far I rooted with towelroot and installed safestrap and made a backup of the rom thats on here already.

At this point im not sure what direction to go in? Is my bootloader locked? I know there are more current versions of firmware out there should I odin to the latest? Can we install custom kernels? I would really prefer to stay on touchwiz and would be looking for a rom somewhat stockish. So far im a little lost but im learning a little. Any help, guidance would be greatly appreciated
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drake90001:
The bootloader on the i537 cannot be unlocked yet. Work is being looked into on the Verizon/ATT standard S4. You're on the newest firmware right now, however there was an update released today (I don't recommend flashing/installing it yet until we know how it affects us).

With the locked bootloader we cannot use custom kernels. You can however use ATT S4 rom's on it that are touchwiz and safestrap based.

I can give you more information on flashing touchwiz/safestrap (SS) rom's if you'd like, and provide links with working ones.

Ok, now that he's fixed his comment so it makes a tiny bit of sense. I had this problem with the p900 as well. This was how I fixed the hang on cache issue very quickly.

Get 7zip.

1. Open the zip file you got for cf-autoroot with 7zip. Extract the CF-Auto-Root-v1a3g-v1a3gxx-smp901.tar.md5 file.

2. Remove .md5 extension and rename the file CF-Auto-Root-v1a3g-v1a3gxx-smp901.tar

3. Open this file with 7zip, extract recovery.img from it. Set this aside, you'll need it in a few more steps.

3. Download Caboomi's Recovery img2tar odin maker tool from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2281287

4. Unzip the tool into a folder. Delete the recovery.tar.md5 it comes with. You will also see a Runme.bat file.

5. Edit the bat file with something like Notepad ++. The second line will be

bin\tar -H ustar -c recovery.img > recovery.tar

Change this to

bin\tar -cf recovery.tar recovery.img

Save the file.

6.Remember the recovery.img file you took from the CF-Auto-Root-v1a3g-v1a3gxx-smp901.tar in step #3? Throw that file into the same folder where the Runme.bat file is located.

7. Run the .bat file. It will produce a new recovery.tar.md5

8. Flash this new recovery file in Odin. HAVE AUTOREBOOT TURNED OFF.

9. Flash the original CF-Auto-Root-v1a3g-v1a3gxx-smp901.tar.md5 file after that.

10. Hopefully success?
