[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] minibrekkers:
I have a problem. I have an 910f and flashed in the past many many times philz touch. This morning I flashed philz touch in odin on a stock 5.1.1. rom and I don't get any errors or fails in odin. But when I go to recovery I come in 3rd recovery and not in philz... I have tried it several times butt it wont work.

what is wrong?

p.s. every time when I open recovery it says "install systemupdate"

Updated on 2015.10.09: rebase on Android 5.1.1 permissive kernel

This only a repack
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] HyperEscape:
I love Phliz and have been using it on my SGS4 I9500. I have now upgraded to Note Edge N915F, but I was not able to find a specific Philz version for it. Can I use this Philz version for SM-915F note edge as well.

Thanks for quick answer.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] sale52:
I have just flashed Philz recovery and then SuperSU 2.52 but now have bootloop problem. Any help will be much appreciated.

...Fixed by flashing stock rom.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] tupirujp:
Where is the link for the new version
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
Recovery is something, root is another thing...

You must use my patched stock kernel before flashing SuperSU. Use the pure stock enforced kernel in dedicated thread
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] mocassino:
a stupid question is coming....

ready?

Go! Does it works with your kernel 5.1.1 SElinux enforced?

:eek:
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] user2k10:
N910F running STOCK 4.4.4, which version do I use, the original or the latest based on 5.1.1 ?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
Works on any stock or custom rom
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
Will work, except restore could be screwed because of maybe different SE policy

I am having the same problem. Cant install via Odin.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] tiwag:
Try flashing with odin and DONT SELECT REBOOT.

Instead remove your battery after flashing, wait a while and reinsert battery and boot into recovery with vol-up home on key combination. Hth

Come from twrp when I go to wipe /format which is the MicroSD Card? sdext or sdcard 1? Don't want to wipe the MicroSD Card!
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ldx00:
Generally it's sdext, but I wouldn't take my word for it. I frequently get unsure myself and easiest thing to do is just go into recovery with it removed, then insert it and see which option appears when you mount it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
sdext is obsolete external sd sub-partition, nothing to do with external sdcard

external is /storage/sdcard1
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] seavers11:
When want to flash a new rom it's enough to use format for new rom? Or is it necessary to wipe manual too?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
format for new ROM is enough killing

But you can manually clean /sdcard/Android and /sdcard/data on internal sdcard

Clean to install new ROM will wipe everything except /sdcard and external sdcard
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] seavers11:
Thx and to wipe the internal sd card i must wipe sdcard/android and sdcard/data? It's the same as in twrp format internal card?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
format /data and /data/media, will do a real format and not and rm -rf
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gerardo87:
The .zip version failed to flash on the latest twrp, I can flash directly the recovery.img file inside the zip? Or in this case is better to flash with odin?

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
maybe the assert or signature verification...
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gerardo87:
So I can just flash the .tar version with odin?

Inviato dal mio SM-N910F utilizzando Tapatalk
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
yes, or edit updater-script and remove assert paragraph if it is causing issues

My device (N910T3) is a T-Mobile variant, but my Model ID reads TRLTE not TRLTETMO so would it be cool to extract the recovery.img from zip and flash through TWRP?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] HyperEscape:
Stupid question, since I am fan of Phillz touch.

Can I use this Note 4 recovery on my Note Edge SM915F, tried looking for a specific version for Note Edge but wasnt able to find one. I am running Mickey TW 5.1.1 stock based ROM.

Would love it working for my SM915F as well, any updates about whether the Aroma File Manager works with it now or now

Thanks.

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SeaFargo:
Aroma Filemanager transparency overlay Philz Recovery

Aroma Filemanager overlay Philz Recovery :crying: :crying:

A file manager inside a recovery is a must for an advanced user, and seems Aroma Filemanager run in SM-N910F only in Philz Recovery, but ...

...but the filemanager interface overlay the Philz log and the result is a mix of transparency very very difficult to use.

In other phones Aroma Filemanager just take the screen until you exit from it.

I've tryed in the GUI preferences but seems there's no way to avoid this transparency overlay.. :(

Any solution so far??
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] fabietto1990:
hi. i have a coj3 fw in a n910f device. which recovery shuld i flash? i read coi3 in the file names, and i want know if it is compatible with coj3 firmware. thank you
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SeaFargo:
It depends by the firmware you would like to flash.

As example the Stock firmware should be flash by Odin for Windows, the CM official rom should be flashed by official CWM, The MIUIv7 have to be flashed by TWPR.

Just take information from the thread of the rom you whould like to flash.

If you just want to backup a stock firmware I suggest TWPR. It's fast and have a great compression ratio ;)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] fabietto1990:
I'm sorry. I forgot to tell that i am on stock firmware. I will search also for twrp. Thanks for your advice

[MENTION=4666971]Phil3759[/MENTION]

In my recent work I have moved all "magic" to the update-binary which is a shell script (see attachment if you need more details related to script)

I just tested my work with "well known recoveries and tools" like TWRP / CWM PhilZ and with FlashFire. Everything just works fine, but with your PhilZ Touch there is a message:

Of course ROM has been installed just fine after that, but this message is a little annoying :cool:

I understand that checking update-binary is necessary, and original intention is to "actively warn lazy devs to upgrade their packages", but in case of my work there is no binaries at all - I have moved my work to a higher level (sh script) and in such case it should never be shown, am I right?

Could you please extend this check to ignore high-level work(s) (sh script instead compiled binaries) and release new version ??

Alternatively - please give me a clue - how can I "upgrade to latest binaries" in case of sh script? :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
Here's the culprit commit:

https://github.com/PhilZ-cwm6/philz_touch_cwm6/commit/e88a00e49a909ca700bd6a577ebec2a7c1e3d65e

Your script has a set_perm text without set_meta, so it is assumed as legacy

To fix it, another check is needed to ensure it is not a plain text shell script

You can also silence this crap log by reverting this commit

https://github.com/PhilZ-cwm6/philz_touch_cwm6/commit/9446bf167d38f0125b44deaf705cd78a301a0731

In any case, it is just cosmetics you can ignore

Sadly, I no longer have time to compile anything related to Android. My real life is not going to be less busy any-soon probably

Wonder if anyone can help?

Im trying to create a backup file and have tried both TWRP and Philz but bot tell me I do not have enough space to proceed.

This is strange as I have 14gb free on my mounted sd card and have also tried with an externally mounted 8gb new sd card, both with no luck.

Can anyone suggest a work around or fix for this please as I really want to flash DR Ketans Rom....

Also, My system file to backup is about 14500mb in size, does that seem normal?

Thanks

thanks for this! I just installed on my sm-n9100, it works, but only seems to boot to recovery mode about 1 out of 10 times. the other times, it says recovery mode, but then resets, and boots normally.

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] twistedumbrella:
Not sure if you'll want this (and if not, I'll remove the link) but I repackaged the recovery using generic configurations to work on the 910t and 910w8. Installs in recovery and appears to be working normally.

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] wifiguru:
+1. Installed and works correctly on T-Mobile Note 4.

This is a big help for 910t users... I think it would benefit if this was posted in the 910t forums...
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] twistedumbrella:
Please remove the link from your quote in case Philz doesn't want it posted.

It is up to him if a version is posted in the 910T forum or not. I only updated the kernel and modified some of the properties.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
Please provide a link with file renamed to device name (trltetmo, trltespr...)

Ensure you did the needed edits in default.prop

If it is ok, I can add it to official goo.im, rename the thread and add you as OP if you think it is a good idea
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] twistedumbrella:
I'm not sure if it has any specific devices it doesn't work on. This is the default.prop

persist.security.ams.enforcing=0
ro.secure=0
ro.allow.mock.location=0
ro.debuggable=1
ro.adb.secure=0
persist.sys.strict_op_enable=false
persist.sys.whitelist=/system/etc/whitelist_appops.xml
persist.sys.usb.config=mtp,adb
ro.securestorage.support=false
ro.build.selinux=0
ro.config.knox=0
ro.config.tima=0

It's taken from my kernel and that works on T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon, US Cellular, Rogers, AT&T, etc.

I have a feeling the only reason the version you have up is specific to any device is because you have it set that way. You could probably remove all that excess stuff and accomplish the same thing without any other changes. I only put the kernel in there for good measure.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
I talk abou device specific parts:

ro.build.product=trlte
ro.product.model=SM-N910F
ro.product.device=trlte

Also, recovery has a much more consistent default.prop, as it includes the ROM build.prop

The kernel is patched as per xiaolu suggestion. ro.selinux stuff is useless here. Xiaolu suggested the bootloader was locked somehow!

But well, if you keep them as trlte, this recovery should work on most variants, unless the bootloader requieres different offsets (most Verizon/TMO/Sprint devices did this previously)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] twistedumbrella:
I'm not sure my explanation is making sense so instead...

Are you releasing this for North American or do you mind if I port it?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
reading you again, I see you repack with a kernel

Take care if you use stock kernel: recovery will be SE enforced and you cannot start adb shell sessions for example

If you have adb shell as root enabled, you can then safely redistribute your work. I am fine with it
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] twistedumbrella:
No worries. I have been doing this stuff since 2008. I will be fine. Good luck and thanks.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
still interested here: are you able to boot in permissive mode by only modifying the ro properties or you still patch the kernel?

Or maybe only some variants have this kind of lock? G910F and Chenglu Korean model seem both afected

I did not try to modify the context file as I have little time for it, but probably should be enough to run in enforced mode on G910F without patching kernel in permissive mode
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] twistedumbrella:
The file_contexts is identical across devices. The se(whatevers) vary, but I wrote a multi-loader for that. Everything else but carrier properties are identical.

I didn't use that mod because it breaks functionality. SELinux is only set to enforced by the system. That issue is something he is or isn't doing right locally.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SavanTorian:
I set

ro.build.selinux=1 on my 4.3 NA7 SGS3 a few months ago and it tells me, selinux is disabled at all .

same here? :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
so, to sum it: could you get a proper selinux setup to start adb while running recovery in enforced mode or you are still repacking with my permissive lzma compressed kernel ?

At the end, it doesn't matter a lot for end user to be in permissive mode. However, for some debug/testing, being able to switch between permissive/enforced or being able to run in enforced mode is a nice option. Without Chenglu tip to patch kernel, I would have been obliged to play with the context file
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] twistedumbrella:
I am using my own kernel. The thing is with that patch the user can no longer switch. They are permissive unless you build the kernel as enforced. It breaks the user setting.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] marcyspark:
I have not been able to get any of the files to be recognised as valid in ODIN. That is from the opening post and the further links provided. The tar.md5 is saying that it is not valid.

Anyone else having this problem? Can't just be me.... can it?!
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
That I fully understand

You still did not answer me: how could you get recovery booting with your unpatched kernel (so, in enforced mode) without breaking adb shell connection?

Does your repack support switching between enforced and permissive state with "setenforce" command?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] twistedumbrella:
It is a highly patched kernel. It is just patched *correctly* and yes, that is possible
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Phil3759:
I see, thank you

You have a repo with your kernel sources?

nevermind, found your kernel repo

How do you install this recovery? Do you use Odin/Heimdall? Or do you use ADB/external flash update? If Odin, simple instructions please?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] twistedumbrella:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1372414
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] edepot:
I think these instructions are outdated for Samsung Galaxy Note 4. On the N9100 model, pressing "Volume UP", "Home", and "Power" at the same time leads to the Android System Recovery (which allows ADB and external flash install, but pressing "Volume Down", "Home", and "Power" leads to Samsung Download mode ( "It says Odin Mode (High Speed)" ) at the top. So if I wanted to install stuff using Odin, should I substitute the instructions with "Volume Down" instead? Or will it also work because Odin will intercept the powering up of the recovery when "Volume Up" is pressed instead? Those instructions are outdated!
