No update yet...

My tablet also says there are no software updates available (tried with tablet and through Kies). I am still running 4.1.2 Jellybean. I am in Ireland and am not an at&t customer so I assume this is why I have never received an update?... Would I be able to sideload this update if I could get the zip file? Also, would I need to sideload the previous update to build JZO54K.I467UCAMF2 first? Still dealing with this unresponsive screen!! :mad:

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Tablet

The problem with this tablet is tha if ypu have rooted it at all weather the KNOX bit has been triped or not. The OTA update from ATT will not work. So for those of use that are still running 4.2.1 we are stuck stell some can make a custome. .img file for this table.

So the next question is how do we reset KNOX from 0x1 back to 0x0?

I rooted using saferoot, it tried to push me the kitkat update a couple times but it would fail since I was rooted. I started having some issues with the device so I unrooted it and called in to start my warranty process. They wanted me to factory reset it first so I did, than it pushed me the update. My problems were fixed with the update but of course I lost root. Will be watching for updates, I miss my root.

I was just tired of the screen freeze/lag issue... so I opted to take the 4.4.2 update hoping to rid the device of that issue.

Glad I took the update because the screen freeze is gone... but now I'm hoping for a new method to root. Can't set it up the way I like to without root.

[MENTION=577248]Da_G[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4708661]muniz_ri[/MENTION] took it to the next step beyond that with no luck, so I think that method still depends on AT&T/Samsung releasing the full firmware for 4.4.2, which they may never do.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] glenesis:
Hi, I'm purchasing an i467 for my girlfriend. It's nice to know that it is up to 4.4.2, which runs great on my S3 (SPH-L710) and my Tab 3 7.0 (SM-T217S.04). I rooted those using the app from Towelroot (easily googled), which claims that its exploit should root ANY device running on 4.4.2.

I simply downloaded Towelroot directly to my devices, installed it and ran it in its default configuration to gain root, downloaded SuperSU from the Play store and let it install the Superuser binary, and downloaded BusyBox from the Play store and install that. I didn"'t even need to reboot - it was one of the easiest root methods I've ever used. Honestly, I never even installed a custom recovery - I just needed to root to get access to my micro SD card that Google mindlessly removed with KitKat. This method did not trip the yellow triangle. My status still says official in the phone info. It's an absolute win situation.

I can't speak for your device yet, but by next week I'll have an i467 and I' ll know for certain if this method works on it. I love KitKat, but my external SD cards are at the heart of what I do with all of my Android toys. Cutting off third party app access to my cards was a big no-no. I wish there would be more community uproar about that. Naturally, try this at your own risk. Good luck!

Happy Thanksgiving, where applicable! Cheers!

I don't have the tar file. I have not accepted this update as I need root so I'm waiting until there is a working root. I think it's of there is no 4.4.2 on sammobile
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] dandroid7:
towelroot does not work on i467 if you have 4.4.2

i467 with ni2 4.4.2 is not currently rootable - no existing methods work to root it. A new exploit or process needs to be discovered.

i467 with mf1 4.1.2 is rootable

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Da_G:
Seems that besides myself, there are at least two people who are stuck in kies recovery mode on the device as a result of trying to flash 4.4.2 and root it.

Today I am back from thanksgiving vacation, got bronchitis and pneumonia while I was away. So i'm stuck home feeling terrible for a few days. I'll spend some time working on this issue, to see if I can get back a functioning tablet. Once that fix is achieved, on to working on root again :)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] dandroid7:
[MENTION=577248]Da_G[/MENTION] did you try reflashing the 4.4.2 kernel that [MENTION=4708661]muniz_ri[/MENTION] had posted a few days ago?

He posted instructions for me to try the kernel swap method in order to root... the kernel swap back to mf1 did not work, it would not boot up and ended up with "unauthorized software" message.

I was able to boot back into download mode and Odin flash the 4.4.2 kernel he posted and was back up and running in no time.

Not sure if this will work for you.... But here is a link to that post

Good luck! Hope you feel better soon.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Da_G:
Yes, I tried reflashing the kernel, no dice.

I think some signatures are being checked at startup, beyond the boot.img signature, and whatever extra partition is being checked does not match on my tablet because the upgrade never fully completed to hit all partitions, and I've tried to downgrade to MF1 with odin.

Next step is to use the .cfg to manually patch all /system files and other emmc partitions, then create an odin .tar with that, should be similar/the same to an odin tar of the full NI2 update, that should get me going. It would be easier to put together if anyone on NI2 had root, they could just dump the respective partitions for me and I could easily assemble it, but the hard way looks like the only way right now. :eek:

BTW, attempting system.img or cache.img flash in odin from MF1 tar always results in a fail, probably again due to a signature check, could be that a full image of NI2 is the only thing that can save me.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] rikou_demon:
Hi everyone,

I'm in the same boat as Locone and Da_G, and I'm sure there's more of us out there.

Long story short, I soft bricked my ATT i467 trying to root after 4.4.2 update (root via Odin flash) and remain stuck at the "Firmware...Use Kies Recovery" screen.

So far, I'm unable to revert my i467 back to functional status.

I tried flashing the MF1 firmware from SamMobile via Odin, but the process would fail at 80% and rebooting takes me to the "Firmware...Use Kies Recovery" screen.

I tried flashing the NI2 kernel posted by muniz_ri as suggested by dandroid7 (in the post above).

The "Firmware...Use Kies Recovery" screen doesn't pop up anymore.

It's now replaced by the "Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0" boot-up screen.

Unfortunately, the tablet remains at this screen (doesn't actually boot up) and still doesn't power off.

Trying to remain positive and hopeful about my now non-functional Note 8.0

Any help would be appreciated.

I'll report back if I find out anything potentially useful.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Da_G:
Hi Rikou_Demon,

Let me try to explain what I have discovered so far:

Once the bootloader (sboot.bin) has been updated (4.4.2 update), it will not allow itself to be overwritten by some specific blacklisted versions. This includes the stock bootloader MF1.

So, what happens when you attempt to flash in odin, sboot.bin fails, and the entire flashing process fails. This failed flash sets the device to show "Firmware...Use Kies Recovery" screen. Also, I have noted that MF1 version of system.img and cache.img cause a failed flash. I did assemble an odin .tar containing everything from MF1 except sboot.bin, system.img, and cache.img, which completed flashing successfully, but still did not boot correctly. Once a successful flash occurs, "Firmware...Use Kies Recovery" screen goes away. (flashing kernel to NI2 for example, results in a successful flash)

Unfortunately, using Kies only downloads the 4.1.2 full odin tar, which again contains the blacklisted sboot.bin, and fails to flash.

This leaves us in a situation, where there is essentially only one recovery option:

We need the original, signed by samsung/att NI2 odin .tar.

This will contain the proper images that will pass signature checks by sboot.bin and allow booting fully.

What we need to do now is try to reach out to samsung, AT&T, and other sources to obtain this odin .tar.

There is one other method:

If we can obtain root on 4.4.2, we can use adb to connect to the phone, run a few instances of "dd" to download the bootloader, kernel, recovery, and other necessary images from the emmc. From these dumps we can build an odin .tar that will fix everyone who has this problem.

For now, I am going with the third option, using my warranty to exchange the device. Even this option may not work as we have KNOX Warranty Void: 0x1.

Beyond these fixes, maybe we could try "sd card recovery" method usable on many qualcomm devices, someone would need to dump an image of their eMMC to file using dd that we could write to an sd card and try booting from. This might work on a dump from MF1.

Maybe some time soon Kies will update with the 4.4.2 version. At this point we would be able to fix it also, as we can pull the full .tar from Kies.

Again, I suggest reaching out to all possible sources of the full odin .tar for 4.4.2 (Samsung, AT&T), as I suspect this will be our only option for repair aside from warranty. With warranty possibly not even being an option due to tripped KNOX bit.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Da_G:
I just noticed you stated this:

On mine, with NI2 kernel, I get a yellow triangle "software not authorized by AT&T" screen here. Instead of staying at boot-up screen.

If you are getting this response, this means you may not be as stuck as I am. Usually when the device hangs at that bootup screen, kernel has loaded and something beyond that is broken (mismatched kernel/system usually). I think if you flashed correct recovery, then booted to recovery and wipe cache/data, you may be able to restore function. Or if that didn't work, also flashing correct system.img in odin (4.4.2) would work.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] rikou_demon:
I pretty much dug myself into a pit.

Initially, my Knox Warranty Void count was actually 0 - even when I was stuck at the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 screen (after flashing the NI2 kernel). Somehow, after my last boot-up. I encountered the yellow triangle screen and my Knox Void count quickly got bumped up to 1.

I'll be contacting ATT/Samsung soon about the status of Odin-flashable 4.4.2 firmware for ATT i467. Hopefully it's in the works.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Da_G:
Received the tablet back from Samsung today. They voided both the parts and software warranty due to being rooted. (I'm sure they saw the knox/custom flag and stopped working on it immediately, going by the verbage in the repair log)

AT&T Premier @ 611 basically indicated to me that their hands are tied if Samsung said the unit is beyond repair.

So, now I'm playing phone tag attempting to reach someone capable of providing me with the odin .tar we all desperately need.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Da_G:
Escalated to executive resolutions team. Let's see if they can come up with something before they call me back tomorrow. Meanwhile, lets see if juggling partitions etc. with the canadian counterparts might get us a signature match somewhere.

NOTE 3 - ROOTED
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Da_G:
I have two avenues for exploration right now, I think the most likely to succeed is:

I'm going to push the 4.1.2 system.img to my note 3. Mount it loop (hope the kernel supports that since there arent custom kernels on the note 3)

Then, adjust the updater script to apply patches to the loop mounted partition. Apply all the updates to NI2 as normal, then unmount the partition.

That should give me a system.img identical to the NI2 system.img the bootloader is looking for. I'll then download that from my note 3, flash that with odin/heimdall on to my note 8, and bam. I don't see why that would fail to flash/boot. Providing of course that the system.img is what's not passing sigcheck (I am pretty sure it is)

We'll find out as soon as I'm done pushing the system.img to my note 3 via adb :)

If the note 3's kernel doesn't support loop mounted images, I'll have to borrow my grandmother's Note 1 so I can build a custom kernel with loop support. Let's hope I don't have to do that. lol

Thank you Best Buy

Im still not shure how i got this to work but i some how tricked my tablet into thinking that the KNOX bit and Flash counter where not triped... in the Device status it said "Custom". now it says "Official".

I used some app called "KNOX status Samsung" it said it couldnt detect it then i ran the newest "Triangle Away". and it said it wasnt compatible. so i restarted the tablet. then Shut it down, and held the "Power & VOL Down" when the Samsung logo came up i lut go of the power button and kept the "Vol Down" button held. When the Yellow triagle showed up on the screen i selected to restart. .. i checked the "Device Status" and it was listed as "Official"

So i tried the OTA again.. i still failed at 26%... so i headed to the ATT store, got a hold of the Samsung repair guy and he had me shut down the tablet and hold down the "Power and the Vol UP" when the Samsung logo showed up lut go of Power. and kept the "Vol Up" key pressed. when the menue came up i erased the "Cache" then the "Device Data(Factor Reset)". Then got told to go to of all places " Best Buy". and they pluged it in to a laptop and did a "Reflash" using some special samsung softwear. and it worked...

I lost root but im now running Android 4.4.2.

If some could instruct me on how and what to extract. From this working OS.. i will gladly share the upload link.

Thats to bad. If i do find a way to get it what exactly do i need to copy and where is it usaly at, or what program would i use to extract it. Im still a Novice programer, i know the basics of how to get around and miner programing.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Da_G:
Well, once rooted, you would connect the phone to your computer and use adb to issue some commands to it..

(Alternatively, you could use a terminal emulator on the phone directly, but that would tank more time unless you have a bluetooth keyboard or something)

essentially what you're doing is using the program "dd" which is part of busybox, to create a direct 1:1 image of the various partitions on the phone's internal flash memory (emmc)

the commands would be similar to (not exactly):

# dd if=/dev/block/emmcblk0p1 of=/storage/extSdCard/emmcblk0p1

# dd if=/dev/block/emmcblk0p2 of=/storage/extSdCard/emmcblk0p2

And so on, which would leave you with several files in the root of your SD card called "emmcblk0p1" and so on. These files are images of your emmc partitions, again I would have to go through the mount list to determine exactly which ones we would want. If we do get root i'll certainly give you the exact list of commands.

Given those images, we can directly feed them to odin which should take care of fixing anyone with damaged partitions.

In other news, I spent a few hours escalating to Samsung Executive Product support. They overrode the BER evaluation and accepted my wifeys tablet in for repair. It's with them again in texas today. So let's see if they complete the repair this time or just send it right back after seeing the knox flag again. :P

Kingroot

Has anyone tried Kingroot. I know I used it once on an RCA pro 10. And it work great but was not sure I liked it maybe if someone tried it got root then did a dump. That would help everyone out. The thing I did not like about it was it has its own SU program and is not easily replaced with a different one. I personally like firechain SU. So I wipe the RCA pro 10 and redid every thing after a dump.

Ok so I have just tried Kingroot and it wants me to download the Pc version and try it again I can do so at this time.

I used it for a week only on wifi and never got reminders about available update and I started to read xda and thinking about rooting it in order to remove all bloat (and gosh it has A LOOOT of it)! Then my sister took for 4-day working trip to FL and used her corporate AT&T sim with it, software update popped up and she updated it... such a fail! Unfortunately there's no way to downgrade back to 4.2 as well. And of course trivial stuff like Kingo or Towelroot don't work on 4.4. So I'm stucking with sucky battery life and all that bloat!
