[Samsung Galaxy Ace 3] malybru:
Just wanted to clarify what the differences are between android and original development. Here are some KEY points by our very own pulser_g2.

The following are most likely “Original Development”:

*Official releases of highly original and upstream custom ROMs (built from the ground up with significant original development within them

*Official releases/development of such original ROMs, perhaps posted by the maintainer or their nominated person.

*A significant “first” in development for a device. Significant is subjective, but it is likely something which took considerable time/effort, and is generally accepted by developers to be significant and non-trivial.

*Kernels which are built with beneficial changes that are not simply pulled from other kernels already available. Some element of original work is expected.

*ROMs where the developer has made a custom kernel for it.

*Tools and utilities with a clear purpose, and which are well-made, and useful to users. They should have an element of originality, either in purpose or through significant improvement in the means of operation.

*Significant port of a ROM from one device to another, giving enhanced features or functionality to users of the target device. The port should be beneficial (a port from two virtually identical devices isn’t original development, it’s winzipping, and nobody really benefits from this, as it’s not development)

The following are most likely not “Original Development”, and should be posted in the “Android Development” subforum:

*Your own “unofficial” stock build of your favorite original, source-built (or otherwise) ROM, particularly where an official or maintainer-endorsed thread exists already.

*Minor derivatives of other ROMs with little or no changes, or ROMs consisting of “placebo” features as a main constituent or claim.

*Renames or rebadges of others’ work – these don’t belong on XDA at all! Refer to rule 12 for more information.

*Reposts of existing ROMs with small changes (i.e. kitchen work, such as adding a couple of apps). If you could realistically distribute your changes as an “addon pack” above and beyond a ROM, you should do so. In addition, your “ROM” would not be original development as it would be substantially identical to the original ROM.

*A thread created with unrealistic goals that are clearly unachievable by those starting the thread. This is not intended to discourage high aspirations, rather to prevent threads porting Windows Phone 8 to the HTC Wallaby. This is pretty much common sense.

*A ROM where a main or significant claim/feature is graphical changes to the user interface (ie. Themed ROM)

You can find all the info for it here. Threads will be moved if they do not meet the "Original" development requirements. Thank you and have fun! :highfive:

Stupid me, didn't read up enough to realize that rooting the Note 4 breaks OTA updates. It looks like I can pull the update down via Kies 3. But before I do that I want to make sure I'm going in the right direction.

So far I've found two options, would any of these work to allow OTA updates to work again?

1) Use Kies 3 and install the update

2) Reinstall the original ROM following the instructions on this page...

http://androidromupdate.com/2014/11/07/n910pvpu1anie-sprint-samsung-note-4-sm-n910p-stock-firmware/

3) hit the "full unroot" button in SuperSU Free

Any recommendations guys?

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poit:
1. My phone was stock rooted, I upgraded using Kies and the phone status changed from custom to Official. Then I rerooted and it changed back to custom again. That leads me to believe that if you upgrade using Kies and don't re-root it will accept OTA updates again. I can't confirm that though. (The Knox flag of course remained tripped, no way to fix that as of now)

2. Don't know, but I would expect any full stock Odin would allow OTA as long as the status is Official.

3. NO, I tried the full unroot button on SuperSU and the status remains Custom, and it won't even check for OTA.

Kies was very easy for me, I didn't have to unroot and at least in my case all data and apps were retained. With Odin you will end up with a factory fresh phone and have to restore all your data and apps.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeepZero:
That answers my question. I'll try the kids method and re root later. Thanks for the help

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeepZero:
Quick reply, in case someone finds this looking for a similar solution. I removed root completely via the app and then updated via Kies, can't tell yet if I'll be able to OTA update from now on but it was a successful update.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soulforged666:
Let me get this straight...

You were rooted on NK2 and plugged into Kies and just installed the OB7 without having to flash to factory and update OTA and it worked good? I do have a custom rom installed though.

Once i am re-rooted on OB7 I will not be installing anything but ROMs so I do not need to worry about OTA using Kies would make this sooooooo much easier.

Is your phone SM-N910P or SM-N910F?

You posted in SPRINT Q&A FORUM.

If phone truly is SM-N910F, please post in correct forum.

SM-N910P? Download tar from this post below, the md5 is 68EC06027A3ECFE8471263256B139257

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=62230599&postcount=1

I'd suggest that one for faster download but only for SM-N910P.

Edit: never mind; try KIES instead.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] technophobe321:
sorry my bad

its a SM910F btw still no luck but have put in my original message which is what i thought i was in already...
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
Got it. So it was rooted at one point with another firmware on it? Did KIES emergency recovery do anything for it?

So I'm guessing it has stock recovery but won't flash or boot at this point. If so, boot into recovery, factory reset, reboot recovery and factory reset again. Power down, remove battery, wait 30 seconds and boot into download mode and flash the stock tar with auto reboot disabled (preferably one that has a md5 checked against downloaded zip, then drag the tar.md5 image out of opened archive with 7zip). You'd only have F. Reset Time enabled in Odin options.

Pass or fail, power down, pull battery, wait 30 seconds, boot into download mode and flash stock tar with auto reboot enabled plus the F. Reset Time enabled. Close Odin with each flash attempt.

One other thing that has worked in the past is considering the suggestions given, use your imagination to try similar things with custom recovery or flashing parts of the stock tar like extracted bootloader and kernel and (emergency) recovering with KIES. Or even flash CWM recovery, write everything, reboot recovery, wipe again, flash a rooted SM-N910F ROM, un-root it and wipe everything, power down, pull battery and flash stock tar. Take notes of attempt to avoid trying the same thing twice until you succeed. I think you will eventually get it. If so report, the steps that you think were primarily responsible for success.

Best wishes for success and return of the phone.

thanks

thanks for the info it seems the main problem i have is getting the valid file. everyone i try fails with 2 mb left or a 1.7gb file turns into 3.2gb i have paid for sammobile super download and also rapid transfer but both are either corrupted files or just jargon. The one from rapid transfer almost worked until it got near the end and as the file was 3.2 gb it was too large.

i need the correct file for an SM910F unlocked from a reliable source and the genuine file everywhere i try fails or is a virus.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
These should also be trusted sources for SM-N910F.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58814028&postcount=1

I think your ISP may be contributing to bad downloads. You may have to download from another location.

SMH; the other suggestions stemmed from previous difficulties with other users after crashing Odin with wrong stock tar. Hopefully your case is as simple as getting a good download for the SM-910F.

- How to use the Extended_ROM? I cannot write to it and not erase it.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] MrDSL:
1.) This is only available with Exchange server 2007 or you could use Windows Live but that would require a seperate .cab install..

2.) I don't think vanilla comes with that so you would need to find the .cab file to install it.

3.) No idea sorry.

Html mail is also availible if you use IMAP.

but if you want push then Exchange Server 2007 is the only way to get html (and perhaps emoze?)

[Note Edge Android Development] _OverKill_:
and compatible with this rom 915FY '?
[Note Edge Android Development] starbucks2010:
Install Diskinfo from playstore and check what partitions you have for cache, userdata and system.

For 915F these are: cache - mmcblk0p25, userdata - mmcblk0p27 and system - mmcblk0p24.

So, if you have same partitions ad N915F then yes, is compatible.

Good luck.
[Note Edge Android Development] starbucks2010:
I finally managed to make a working cwm .zip of NJ8. I will try to make one also for NK5. If someone wants it just say it.

[Note Edge Android Development] starbucks2010:
I don't have the N915FY but I think that should be ok because they have the same HW.

If you want to try, please make a nandroid backup of your ROM first. Let me know if it works.

Good luck.
[Note Edge Android Development] _OverKill_:
ok then I do the backup and then try the rm and let you know what prog ... I can use x to backup?
[Note Edge Android Development] starbucks2010:
First of all you need to be rooted. Are you rooted?

Once you are rooted, install Chnglu's CWM from the link in OP. After CWM installation, you can reboot your phone in recovery (shutdown the phone, press vol-up + home + power button) and perform the nandroid backup.

Good luck.

You need to get stock before taking any OTA (bootloader being unlocked doesn't cause any issues with update). You can either download factory images for 5.0 and flash those (skip userdata.img if you don't want to lose data), and then take OTA, OR, do it the easier way - download factory images for 5.0.1 and flash those (skip userdata.img to avoid losing data)
