After the update, my sim is locked again. Galaxy Tools will no longer unlock for international use.

And it doesn't read the MSL either.

EDIT:

It does still add all the toggles.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Impulse215:
So far it's working for me
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] DruoGaby:
do u get a sim lock error cuz i dont...it seems as tho its working for me...also hot spot works also...
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Inous:
Wait, isn't the File you linked to the NK2 build? Isn't that 4.4.4? I'm confused, I thought this was for lollipop upgrade
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] xyojimbox:
You gotta go back to stock to get update then root again. I can confirm this method works
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] kholdstare622:
Back to stock

I have successfully flashed back to stock and removed root, but I am not getting the option to update. When I go into Settings>System Update, and click on "Update Now" nothing happens.

Any way to flash stock recovery without flashing the complete firmware? I am on the stock ROM, rooted with TWRP.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] spleef:
anyone get lollipop xposed working? if so could they post how ...just went back to tock for the update nps...but now i want to get my xposed back like i had it before making a backup..any info would be greatly appreciated been a while since ive ran stock
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] shabbypenguin:
has that been fixed? i havent been keeping up on it all.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] spleef:
took the plunge and tried some of the things posted in the thread nothing working so far...used a zip that sets kernel to permissive it worked then used the installer zip it worked but phone doesnt boot only hangs at splash screen...going to try a couple other things thats been posted will update it as i find more info
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] johnnyboi1994:
as the guy above said , no it doesn't work. You will just get stuck at the sprint bootlogo. I found this out the hard way :/ until rovo finds a fixed, we're without xposed for a while.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] SpasilliumNexus:
Care to share the zip that sets SELinux to permissive? My car radio now acts weird with LP on enforced.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Adam1422:
Question when i try step 3 of the OP it says dm-verity failed? Then it just reboots. It dosent reboot to recovery tho. Does it matter if i use the zip vs the tar or img file? I have tried the zip twice now. Once I downloaded on my comp and copied to phone then i tried downloading throught the flashify app and both failed...any help would be much appreciated!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] spleef:
Now I didn't make this just downloaded from the exposed discussion thread... Idk what it will do to your phone I take no responsibility for it... But you asked for it so here it is

If I install the OB7 firmware will I still be able to install CM12 if I feel like switching ROM's?

Thanks in advance.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] fatboypup:
thats the error i got until I odin'd to stock
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] sliverr7x:
Yup as long as u reload a custom recovery ie twrp this didn't lock are bootloader
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] dbug2008:
Can ART be charged back to dalvik?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] FreebaseJosh:
No, Lollipop is made to use ART
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] fatboypup:
Did it work? Cause my radio no longer shows the artist on pandora

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] pbedard:
Yes liquid is running on the new bootloader n radio
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] spleef:
Yeah all custom Roms should be fine.... I'm on latest aicp now shows in baseband I've taken the lp update
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Adam1422:
I started from stock unrooted? So why would i have to odin to stock? This was the first time i rooted the device. Took the ota today and then rooted using the method in the OP. So...
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] tgamble160:
I was able to use twrp manager from play store also. Worked perfect instanced twrp 2.8.5
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] dschachm:
I edited the OP. If you are stock you wouldn't have to Odin the stock tar.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] swurvv:
Can we just flash this with TWRP and get the lollipop udate modem everything will be installed?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] millerboy3:
nope. Sorry currently working on that now.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Adam1422:
Do you know why i cant flash twrp? I have tried both downloadimg the zip from my pc and downloading from the flashify app and i get the vm-identify validation failed? It doesnt matter if i use the zip or img or tar fole does it?

Edit - if i use the img file it reboots to recovery!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] axi0m:
I followed the instructions exactly, but flashing failed in stock recovery.

I noticed that my CSC was set to XAS instead of SPR. Could that cause problems?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] voodamn:
Sweet I will wait for Millerboy3's rooted Lollipop version :)
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] dschachm:
Were you rooted and on stock? That is the only way to update.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] dschachm:
Try reinstalling flashily and re-downloading img file.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] voodamn:
I guess i can't wait so here's my question... do i have to rename the stock tar file in the OP and name it to just N910PVPU1ANK2.ZIP instead of N910PVPU1ANK2_N910PSPT1ANK2_SPR.ZIP? When i first flash it in recovery, it failed so it could just be a bad download but i just want to make sure if its the name i need to change too or not?

BTW, im currently running the SmoothKit Version, dont know if that matters.

never mind...i figured it out..i will have to Odin it back to stock. thanks
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] sliverr7x:
U cant flah a tar file on ur phone u must use odin thats why it fails
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] emeraldayotte:
Being a flashaholic isn't helping. LOL
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] maltydog:
I have Odin'd and rooted a number of tablets and phones in the past, so I know how to do it, but I decided when I got this phone last October to wait until Lollipop was installed before rooting it. Maybe if I'd known how long it was going to take, I would've rooted earlier! Anyway, when I finally got Lollipop update yesterday, I decided it was finally time to root the thing. Since I never bothered to root it earlier, I figured I would just have to Odin CF-Auto-Root and then Flashify the recovery. But I am having some issues with it. I have reconnected the phone to my computer (a Windows 7 desktop, by the way) and updated the drivers, and I downloaded the correct CF-Auto-Root file, and enabled debugging on my phone, but when I turn on any of several versions of Odin on my computer, and get my phone into download mode, and then connect the phone to my computer, it doesn't appear in any of the com ports listed at the top of the Odin screen. So it doesn't seem possible to Odin the Tar file. I have never had this issue with Odin before, but as I said, this is the first time I've tried to Odin this particular phone, though I have Odined quite a few devices before. Any suggestions? What am I missing here?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Morpheen:
This happened to me as well. For me, using a different cable worked. I tried it with an older one and it didn't register in Odin. I then swapped cables with the one that came with my phone and it worked perfectly. Worth a shot if you haven't tried it.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] maltydog:
Thanks, that worked. Not sure why that didn't occur to me...except that the computer had no problem recognizing the phone in regular mode with the old cable, just finding it in Odin. Anyway, thanks again!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Morpheen:
Glad I could help!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] pilotmills:
Just want to double check something. I was stock rooted (TWRP recovery) i have odin'd the stock file in the OP. I had xposed installed. Now, after returning to completely stock, I am unable to uninstall it. Is this necessary before updating to Lollipop? I know that xposed has issues with Lollipop, but with it not being rooted yet, I wasn't sure it was a problem.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] emeraldayotte:
Rooted and lollipop goodness. Big thanks for the find.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] SpasilliumNexus:
Not sure what's going on, but trying to restore a clean nandroid of 4.4.4 with the 5.0.1 update applied results in a loop of the Note 4 screen.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] samep:
Odin of stock tar writes over Xposed framework; it's gone. Unless you wiped user data, the modules are still there but inactive.

It's been suggested to clean install lollipop. You can factory reset prior installing the update.zip

---------- Post added at 02:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:53 AM ----------

Wrong bootloader?

Sounds like you need to power down and Odin stock tar and TWRP before restoring nandroid.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Slypnslyde:
Okay so I did the flashify for recovery and it didn't work its still stock recovery

tune in to Kool London FM
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] millerboy3:
Not likely the bootloader this time. I reflashed my smoothkat, after uberwiping to test its lp functionality. However all nandroid restores for lp fail for me on twrps latest recovery.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] pilotmills:
When i dirty flashed, it got stuck on the sprint logo. Maybe i didn't wait long enough, but 5 minutes was eternity. After going back to stock and factory reseting, it installed fine. Don't know if it was stuck at the sprint logo or not or if Xposed had anything to do with it, but clean install is working beautifully.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] MMM850307:
Sprint Note 4 Cannot Get TWRP Recovery

Just bought my GNote4 from Sprint and literally just updated to LP (30 minutes ago). After updating, I've tried to install TWRP Recovery 3 times, each time Odin says it is successful, but when I go into recovery mode, the phone says "System Updating", waits for about 30 seconds, and then shows a dead android guy with a "No Command" error. It then goes into stock recovery, not TWRP recovery mode. Additionally, when I run the phone in Bootloader again, and KNOX hasn't changed from 0x0...

Any idea what's going on?

Here's the phone information:

Software Version / Baseband: N910PVPU1BOB7

Hardware Version: N910P.05

Model Number: SM-N910P

Android Version: 5.0.1
​

If you need more information on my phone, let me know.

I'm installing "openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-trltespr.img" using Odin 3.10.

Thanks, much.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] dschachm:
I don't think it is possible to flash twrp with Odin yet. Root your phone then use flashily from the market to flash.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] millerboy3:
Thats certainly not true. I flashed cf-autoroot and the latest twrp with odin multiple times with no problem. did you ensure you use the tar and not just the .img?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] dschachm:
OK. My bad. I had issues flashing twrp which was why I used flashily.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] millerboy3:
As long as you found something that worked for you without any issues its all good right? :)
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] flyhighx:
I am on LP BOB7 and running TWRP 2.8.5.0. No problems whatsoever with the update; This site rocks. I did a full wipe before taking the update to LP.

A question regarding Lollipop and TWRP. Since LP is using ART and not DALVIK, how does that relate to wiping in TWRP? Every once and a while, to keep things running more smoothly, I would wipe cache and DALVIK cache in TWRP. How do I wipe now? What do I wipe now? Also, am I correct that until we have a flashable .tar if I were to wipe system I'd have to ODIN everything all over again? If I wipe DATA only from TWRP though, I would stay on LP and just have to reinstall apps correct? The rest of the OS would be as is?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] jeffyxd:
Bump
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] ChodaBoyUSA:
Please tell me if I have this correct:

Installing root via ODIN trips the Knox flag, which means I will be unable to use any of the Knox features, which means if I get a job that requires Knox then I am screwed with this device, otherwise tripping Knox really makes no difference.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] bartendersimon:
Too many thread later but did you try unlocking the SIM over sprint website for international use? there is an option in the drop-down menu under your phone to unlock the SIM.

Sorry if everybody know this already.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] bimmerbot:
I can confirm that I just did a system wipe after updating to Lollipop, and I no longer had an OS. Had to go back and ODIN stock .tar again. :(

hi all,

running stock rom, rooted. I downloaded the file N910PVPU1ANK2_N910PSPT1ANK2_SPR.zip, copied it to the external sd card and then rebooted into twrp and tried to flash it, and it failed. There wasn't really any error message, just said error flashing zip

Am i missing a step somewhere? Just want to go back to stock unrooted so I can get the LP update.

Thanks for any help
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] ibcenu:
You need to be stock unrooted...odin the stock nk2 .tar and should be good to go
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] merkk:
Sorry if this is a newb question, but what do you mean Odin the tar file? I usually flashed things from twrp so I'm not familiar with Odin.

Thanks
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] ibcenu:
One needs odin to root from the start..cant use twrp until its rooted.

Im on mobile so i can't link you right now..

Google root sprint note 4 and watch the youtube videos on how to root and use odin

I had the same problem. Tried to use odin to install 2.8.1.1 (using the tar file) and odin says it worked, but when i try to boot into recovery it says installing system update for a few seconds and then i have the stock recovery.

It did however work ok using flashify. I just let flashify download the latest twrp and it installed fine

I want to update to lollipop to check it out, but love my kitkat setup I have now. So Can you restore back to a kitkat backup once you have updated to lollipop?

sent from nowhere
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] dschachm:
I figured out that I was using an old version of titanium. I had to do this process again and wipe and was able to restore everything with titanium.

If you follow this process you will keep all your data but I noticed once you wipe that lollipop is much smoother and faster. I don't know how a restore will work from twrp.

I was able to update to LP without needing to wipe anything. And so far LP is running very smoothly.

I just need some clarification on flashing recovery, what do I close in the flashify list? Or should I use Odin to install recovery?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] flyhighx:
I just used Odin, the same way I did on kit kat. Since you're using Odin to flash back to stock and then to re root, what's one more step since it's out, all set up and tried and true.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Greek81:
After the 1st step, I odin back to stock, should i still have super user in my app drawer? Cause its still there
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] millerboy3:
If you odin back to stock you shouldn't have SU in the app drawer anymore no. When you odin it overwrites /system partition
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] merkk:
You will have all your apps, including superuser. However superuser won't work until after you root.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] liquid307:
I tried everything to update to Lollipop. Originally I was on kitkat rooted. Odin back to NK2 Stock to get LP update, but after update Install I get update failure error. So now I have Odin all the way back to ANI, taken OTA NK2 update then OTA LP update and I still get update failure error and phone boots back kitkat. Any Ideas ?

I 'm thinking to take phone back to sprint.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] beezar:
After Odin to NK2, some people with the same problem as you have had to do a factory reset prior to OTA update to lollipop which worked for them
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] liquid307:
I Did factory reset. What's stupid is that phone took OTA from ANI to NK2 without any issues.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] dschachm:
Load up nk2 and then do a ##786# reset. You will need your msl. If you don't have it Google SPCUtility.apk and it will get it for you but you need root o think. After you reset try to update. If it doesn't work, I would wait a week and wait for the stock tar. I'm sure it will be out soon.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Greek81:
Im fully rooted on LP but i need to go back to 4.4 to get my msl so i can hack my wifi Hotspot. Is it ok to restore 4.4 right from 5.o in twrp ? Or is there a certain way? Or if anyone knows a way to get my msl on LP.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] dschachm:
In would just flash stock nk2 tar.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] merkk:
You can get the hotspot without needing the msl, although you'll need to download sqlite editor which costs $2. So up to you if you want to spend the time or spend $2.
