Hello,

I flashed latest TWRP on my note 5 last month. It was 3.2.0.0.

I check new version today. So it is interesting. 3.1.0.0 seems latest on twrp.me. https://eu.dl.twrp.me/noblelte/

I control it also on Official TWRP app and it said me pls update your recovery.

I am confused. what is changed?

[MENTION=2638973]bigbiff[/MENTION]
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Noblelte is updated to 3.2.1. However some of the carrier variants had issues that I am trying to fix now. Please see https://twrp.me for release notes.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] yerebakan:
Thank u Sir. :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
The adb shell command is intended to be run from the computer. In twrp terminal you can execute dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt

The file you attached just states it was unable to find the adb command which makes me think you tried the command in twrp terminal?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] mocsab:
I tried both -

First attempt form computer - ADB recognized my device in recovery so I know it was connected properly

I ran the command you gave me and got a system cannot recognize path error or something like that - I double checked spelling and spaces and tried several combinations - none of them worked - I am flashing a rom right now - will go back into recovery and will try to get it again. Question - confirm this is what I type when I have a command prompt in Platform tools/sdk

adb shell dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt

Is there a space before and after the > symbol?

I tried it again and got the same error message - system cannot find the path - with and without a space before and after the > symbol - and I confirmed before hand that the device was recognized in ADB - so I am not sure what to do?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] 3lMghraby:
I extracted the recovery img from the file with WinRAR then I used This too to make tar.md5 odin flashable
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
You are in recovery when executing those commands correct?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] mocsab:
Yes - and I confirmed that my pc recognized my device in recovery by entering adb devices in command prompt - I got my device recognized and it said recovery - but when I ran your command in command prompt - system did not recognize the path -
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Can you post a screenshot of your adb command in the command prompt?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] mocsab:
I can but I don't have Android SDK installed on my laptop at work - only on my home machine - and downloading that file would kill bandwidth - my office mates would kill me - :) (is there another way to do ADB outside of SDK that might be smaller file size? it is the only way I know of)
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
There are smaller packages on xda you can search for.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] Jmakhdoom:
Will this work on my SM-920C dual sim?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] mocsab:
You asked me for a screen shot in terminal of what i am doing trying to pull the dmesg.txt file in adb - see attached screen shotView attachment 3468327
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Sorry, Windows requires double quotes around the command. Try adb shell "dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt"
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] mocsab:
hopefully this worked this time - here you go - your instructions worked perfectly
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Looks like the device comes up as sde1. Please test http://build.twrp.me/twrp/twrp-2.8.7.1-noblelte.img.tar
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] mocsab:
OTG WORKED!(when I downloaded it downloaded as an image file and odin did not recognize it - I added .tar extension on the end of the file name and then flashed in odin - now in recovery and OTG is recognized - about to make a back up to see how that goes.

THANKS!

EDIT - I did a backup on OTG and everything worked perfectly - thanks again for your efforts to get OTG working!
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Thanks for testing, pushing it out as 2.8.7.1
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] mocsab:
thanks again - really appreciate it - is the final version the same as what i already downloaded ? Or are there any other changes - just didn't know if i needed to download the version after you push it out?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
No difference other than pushing it to dl.twrp.me and having the dl page updated.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] d.cortez:
i see 2.8.7.3 on the TWRP site, is this the latest version with the OTG Fix? Thanks.

EDIT: Found updated version... ID10T error here...

I'm about to flash the new twrp version with working otg, but flashfire says the md5 hash does not match the file...

I re downloaded it and it still says the same thing. Just making sure I don't end up with a bad flash.

Any thoughts?

EDIT: NEVERMIND... NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED, BUT I TRIED IT AGAIN AND IT WORKED FINE NOW. NO MD5 MISMATCH.

THANKS AGAIN FOR MAKING THIS HAPPEN.

When I make nandroid backup, log show me a E:recv error on uevent. (TWRP 3.2.1.0)

I can not be sure, is restore without issues?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Can you provide the contents of recovery.log?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] yerebakan:
yeap. in attachment.

Sorry it was 3.1.1.0 recovery log.

I will try it with 3.2.1.0 later.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
I am not seeing the error in that log.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] Hymenalos:
He is right mate. I have seen the same problem on my device. Not just that when i flash the lastest version of twrp 3.2.0.0 my stock android was getting bootlop. So i have to get flashed the stock firmware again and go back to the 3.1.1.0. This version has absoluetly issues.

Note: My variant is N920c
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Does 3.2.1-0 give the same issues?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] Hymenalos:
Nope. I didn't try it. İn my free time i'll take backup and try it. But for me 3.1.1.0 is best stable version. Thanks for your hardwork.

[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] Kyrillos:
guys, a quick question. The last oreo release 3.2.1.0 for note 8, it is a disk image file, not tar. Not being able to extract it. Am I doing something wrong?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] n70_06:
We want update for note 5 because twrp 3.2.0 and 3.2.1 give a lot of errors
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] Peterlymo:

[MENTION=2638973]bigbiff[/MENTION] Hello Sir, I'd like to be sure which TWRP I should install on my N9208 nobleltextc. I'm hesitant to flash the one for china duos N9208 which is nobleltezt. Is it the right one, or should I just flash the international version noblelte?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
I am not sure if the partition layout is much different. All you can do is try noblelte and see what happens.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] ElenaAlasea:
So, having quite a big issue. I've flashed TWRP before and it was working. Used it to install a custom ROM. Had some issues with crashes, so wanted to flash a different ROM by going back into TWRP.

Unfortunately, TWRP now crashes as well. Immediately after showing the logo, it shuts down. If I try to boot normally (not by pressing volume up + home + power, but only the power button), it still shows the TWRP logo and shuts down immediately after. Booting normally was working right up to the point I tried booting into TWRP.

Connecting it to USB causes the exact same issues (starts booting, shows TWRP logo, shuts down, starts booting, ...).

Is there anything I can do to fix this since I can't boot into recovery or download mode?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Try using adb and pull /tmp/recovery.log and paste it somewhere for us to look at it.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] ElenaAlasea:
Thanks for your reply!

Unfortunately, I don't see how I can. After plugging in the USB, less than a second after showing the TWRP logo (a couple of seconds after the Samsung logo), the device reboots and keeps rebooting. I can't get ADB to connect during that fraction of a second; unless if there is another way of getting my device to boot/connected without it trying to get into TWRP?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Can you boot into the OS and check /cache/recovery for any logs?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] ElenaAlasea:
Unfortunately, that doesn't work either. Even when just turning on the phone normally (not pressing any other buttons except power, not connected to USB), it still somehow tries to boot into recovery mode, crashes and shuts down.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
You might have to restore a stock odin tar.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] ElenaAlasea:
Sorry to ask a (maybe) stupid question, but how would I go about doing that? As I get continues reboots, Odin doesn't seem to recognize it either (same problem as with ADB). Do you know of a way I could use to restore a stock image despite the rebooting while connected to USB?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
I am sure there are multiple tutorials you can search for on this forum.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] ElenaAlasea:
Damn, sorry, I was stupid. Somehow I was sure I'd already tried "download mode" as well, and was convinced it was rebooting too. Either I didn't try it correctly, or I was always trying to go into recovery mode. Anyway, managed to get into download mode correctly in the end and installed a full original copy. Seems to be working again now. Sorry to have bothered you!
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] SirGarmaples:
Hi! I've been searching all around and I'm not sure whether it would be ok to flash TWRP on my N920C. Could anyone take a look and verify if it's possible or not?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
For the n920c I believe you should be able to use https://dl.twrp.me/noblelte/
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] SirGarmaples:
I've successfully gotten TWRP on my device. Thanks a lot! :)

TWRP SM-N9208 is noblelte

Correct, the 64 Bit version and 64 gigabytes of duos special storage

Samsung Introduces Galaxy Note5 64 GB Dual SIM Edition to Extend the Galaxy Note5 Series

on the download page

https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxynote5.html

indicates that you have to use

China and China Duos (SM-N9200, SM-N9208)*

twrp-3.3.1-0-nobleltezt.img.tar This is not correct

And that data is not correct

To the Flash Rom Resurrection Remix (RR-P-v7.0.3-20191218-nobleltezt-Final.zip) TWRP recovery shows an error

E indicates that nobleltezt is not the correct version, but use noblelte

When flashing the correct Rom version "noblelte" works without problems

https://www.resurrectionremix.com/#top

I understand that for this special version of Note 5

Samsung SM-N9208 TWRP is not nobleltezt

The correct TWRP version is

noblelte

As a curious fact (by mistake) use the Chinese version indicated by the TWRP website

twrp-3.3.1-0-nobleltezt.img.tar and it worked without apparent problems

But the correct recovery is

International GSM (SM-N920C, SM-N920CD, SM-N920G, SM-N920I):

twrp-3.3.1-0-noblelte.img.tar

I passed the App of PlayGoogle AIDA64 to check my version and I effectively reported that it is a noblelte version

rooted n920v note 5 on android 5.1.1

can someone make a twrp for the verizon note 5 please?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] chipworkz:
Ok what am I missing here? On the website https://dl.twrp.me/noblelte/ it shows twrp-2.8.7.3-noblelte.img.tar which I downloaded the other day.

But now this new OTG working version is twrp-2.8.7.1-noblelte.img.tar?

Just trying to figure out how to make sure I am getting the newest version in the future.

Thanks for getting OTG working, it is a must for our Note 5!

EDIT: I think it must be broken, I just did a backup to OTG with both Philz and TWRP.

Philz took 45 minutes and TWRP took 8 minutes. :D
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
I rebuilt the index on dl.twrp.me and fixed 2.8.7.3 and renamed it 2.8.7.0. Make sure to download 2.8.7.1 for the OTG fix.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
just tried a back up to otg and it worked great. went to restore that back up and it puts my phone in download mode and nothing. i tried everything to get phone back and i cant.

dont restore it. it messes up the phone. i stuck in download mode. gonna try odin and pray for the best. i tried to pull log thru adb and nothing

Crap thats sucks bro...hope you get it back..
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] d.cortez:
sorry to read of your troubles... i successfully backed up and restored from my OTG yesterday. (i also backed up to my internal storage in case there were issues). after backing up, i rebooted my phone, selected OTG Storage and everything restored without a hitch. hope you get things back in order..

Did you install a custom kernel or rom?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
i was on locov2 rom and art 4.1 kernel made a back up to test. wiped phone and went to reinstall back up and i was stuck on downloading screen.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Does that kernel disable dm-verity?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3189907

Not that I read. I asked the dev in pm to see what he says. I think one of the tester is using same kernel.

I.D.F.W.Y.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] chipworkz:
So did you get back up and running?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
No but it all good. I see others have had success. I will get back up it just gonna take time and creative flashing/pushing.

I.D.F.W.Y.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Your best bet is to restore your backup of stock, if you made one.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] chipworkz:
Not to get off topic for this thread but since it happened when trying to do a restore it may help if this ever happens to someone else.

Do you have more details on what exactly happened? Did it start to restore and somewhere in the middle went bad on you? When you said you were stuck on the download screen, are you meaning the normal download mode screen to use with Odin or a different download screen? You are not able to use Odin to restore the stock firmware?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
View attachment 3469591View attachment 3469592View attachment 3469593

Was testing a restore from otg and it just didn't make it back. After it was done in hit reboot and went straight into download mode.

I.D.F.W.Y.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] chipworkz:
Ok got it, so once you were in download mode, could you flash the stock firmware with Odin?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
No . Odin see phone and then it drops it. No biggie.i walked away for today. Sporting my g4 till tomorrow when I get my new note 5 in store.

I.D.F.W.Y.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] Misterjunky:
re: download mode

What about pressing the home/volumeDown/power buttons while you are in downloaod mode until

the phone asks you if you want to continue going into Download mode Or Cancel (restart phone)

Select "restart phone" and see what happens, even without a rom at that point you should be able

to go to recovery using the volumeUP/Home/Power buttons until you get to recovey.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
New phone was fix.

I.D.F.W.Y.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] Misterjunky:
So what you are saying is that the restore issue had to do with the phone itself and nothing to do with twrp?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
What I am saying is for me to have phone I went and got a new one.

I.D.F.W.Y.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] Misterjunky:
Okay, good luck with the new phone.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] KOLIOSIS:
When flashing the main .tar in ODIN on my PC,it won't fully load into ODIN until I boot the phone back,or,attempt to boot the phone back into regular mode.

I have to wait about 20-30 seconds,then the .tar that I selected appears in the line next to the AP Box.

Then,I boot back into download mode,hit start & the .tar begins x-ferring from my PC to phone (& reboots as normal after everyrhing's done).

I don't have this issue w/flashing recoveries,just the main .tar
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] jbadboy2007:
Is this compatible with the n920p sprint?

Sure. If I can't im sure others on the device would be glad to help out.

Apologies for the noob questions:

Will this work on any of the Note 5 country variants?

Will this allow me to root the phone?

Whats your phone model?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] Willyman:
SM-N9200
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] daffie:
N9208 here...will TWRP work on this model?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
I think it needs a different kernel. I am going to start working on it tonight and tomorrow.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] daffie:
Fantastic! :good:
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] jpbl1976:
Has anyone tried this on the 9208 Duos? Sorry if someone's already asked. I might have missed it while skimming pages.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
I pushed out https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxynote5duos.html last night.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] daffie:
Hey that's great! Will have to try it...

Noob alert : flashing TWRP doesn't automatically give me root...correct? Any advise on a good root method?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
You can try flashing supersu zip.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] daffie:
Cheers for the tip. v2.46 would be fine I reckon (or is beta 2.49 advisable).

So the steps I suppose would be :

- check OEM unlock option in developers menu of phone

- check USB debugging

- reboot into fastboot

- flash TWRP with Odin 3.10.7

- reboot into TWRP and flash Supersu

If the last steps fails, could it have any negative effect...or is it merely a case of the zip file can be flashed or it can not...
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
You probably need a custom kernel to use root with dm-verity disabled.
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] daffie:
Ah I see :o Then I think it would be best for me to wait. I am far from sure what I'm doing (although I have rooted many a phone before) so hopefully someone will crack this nut soon...

Thanks though :)
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] sshafranko:
Use 2.49 but i doubt it will work. I think you will need a rooted kernel. You may find one here....

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=62529430

I dont think Twrp will stick without a modded kernel also but i could be wrong. Just have a stock image on hand so if anything happens you can odin back to stock.

Oem unlock and debugging

Odin kernel

Odin twrp

I beleive the link has a rooted kernel so no need to flash super su but read a little im not sure for your variant
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] daffie:
Cheers for that. Noble kernel I can't determine whether or not it should work on N9208 (duosim)...
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] Idan73:
There's a Chinese modded kernel for duos (don't remember the thread. Probably in help section). Doubt noble will work for you,but you can try and have Chinese one handy.

Personally, don't even know why some keep recommending noble kernel, as it has known reboot issue (if it has been fixed, apologies. sshafranko might be the only one in that thread without issues ?). Just cause it has autoroot, and avoid flashing supersu zip in recovery, than having to flash stable kernel later anyways.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=62770142

Link for that duos post. Follow the instructions. Apparently you have to download and flash another apk that will allow bootloader unlock, something we only need to check in dev options.

Of course you'll replace Chinese twrp with English one for 9208 mentioned few posts ago.

Note 5 ?
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] daffie:
Many thanks for the help and heads-up on the other post with further information! I have replied there with just a couple of questions before I proceed with rooting my N9208 :)
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] daffie:
Just flashed TWRP for my N9208 duosim (TWRP nobleltezt version) using Odin 3.10.7. Everything went as expected and got the message 'succeeded : 1 / failed : 0'. Afterwards phone was rebooted automatically. After fully rebooted, I then proceeded to switch off phone and then reboot into recovery mode. However then first I see a message 'Installing system update' (which is weird cause I'm already on latest fw and update) and afterwards phone reboots into stock recovery. Did I miss something?

Edit : aha wait...flashed TWRP again, this time with automatic reboot OFF. After manual key-combo reboot into recovery it then apparently patched the stock recovery and I'm now in TWRP recovery, so all's well I assume ;)
[Galaxy Note5 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Did you flash official or the version posted in this thread? I am trying to figure if people are having issues with the official version.
