[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AUsome360:
I purchased a Note 3 at a general auction of undeliverable post office items. I mention this only because some might wonder what I am doing with a phone locked by a PIN. It is legally mine, but I have no desire for the information on the phone...I only would like to use the phone. The phone appears to be fully functional, but it is locked at the PIN screen...however, I am able to boot it up, use the camera and know that the screen is functioning, that the audio appears intact, etc. For all intents and purposes, the phone is good to go but for the locked by PIN.

I see two possibilities to use this phone...either use it for parts from a broken second phone (say, has a broken screen) and so to use two broken phones to make one whole phone...OR, to buy a second phone and take parts from it, to replace whatever "holds" the PIN and data information on this phone (again, taking two broken phones and forming 1 whole phone). I would assume if I can get a replacement motherboard from a donor phone, that this might work to make one good phone from two "broken" phones. If not motherboard, then what part does hold the data and PIN information (I have no desire for this info...just need to know what part to toss).

I am sure there will be some who will feel that I am trying to take advantage of the original owner...if there were a way to figure out how to get it back to that owner, I would be happy to do so. This is simply one of those things that somehow happened within the post office system...and they then auction the lost/undeliverable property to the general population. Anyway, that is how I got the phone and would simply like to try to make use of my purchase.

So, can anyone tell me if there is a single item that contains the data and PIN that I could toss from this phone if I can get the same part from another...if so, what part exactly has this info? Or, alternatively, if I were to buy a phone that has a broken screen, how hard is it to move my screen (which appears to be functioning perfectly), to that phone? I see broken phones being sold all the time on eBay for a reasonable price...perhaps that would be my best option.

Hey, So at what step in this do I start if I dl'ed the Patched boot img? Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] karthikrr:
Part 3, Step 4:

In TWRP, when you hit Install, on the bottom right, you will see an option for Images. Select that and when you goto the folder with your img, you should see the new img you copied on to your device. Continue with Part 4 for full root.

IF the device does not boot, you want to flash the stock boot.img again, so make sure you have a copy of that on your device as well, so you can recover easily!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] icemanscion:
I have issues with TWRP since it wont work properly for me, so I'm going to try it with Philz CWM. Thank you again.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] karthikrr:
Good luck :) Just make sure you have the stock boot.img around, in case there are any problems. You are the first one trying it on the P600, or at least the first who cared to write in this thread, so this is uncharted territory!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] iridaki:
So to get the patches boot.img, we unpack the tar file posted in the OP?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] karthikrr:
Yes. xda does not allow me to post an image file greater than 8mb, but the P607T image is 10.5mb, so had to tar it. Decided to be consistent with all the images.

Technically, you can try to flash that .tar with ODIN, but in my case, it would not work. Only flashing the .img through TWRP did.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] iridaki:
Thank you! And thank you for providing us with a patched kernel! :)

I'll try rooting and installing Xposed tonight and report back!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] karthikrr:
Technically its just a patched boot image with a STOCK kernel, but yea, glad to help :) The real work was done by Chainfire and garyd9 and SHM helped me put this thing together, so they deserve the thanks!

If you get Xposed on it, let me know which version. The official one does not work on TW LL yet, but I believe Wanam has another version out that does. I haven't had the time to install it and test it, so your review will be helpful.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] iridaki:
Any contribution is a worthy contribution! ;)

Wanam Xposed works perfectly on my Note 4 and I think it will work on the 10.1 as well. I'll report back soon!

Hi!

Thanks for your posts, I'm sifting through is now. I was reflashing TWRP 2.8.7.0 (for SM-P600) and discovered that it wasnt responding to touch input. But I quickly discovered that it's UI does respond to the s-pen :)

How do you make it? I cannot flash the twrp successfully, there is always an error saying ''Recovery is not SEAndroid Enforcing''.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Fabi7775:
You should wait a few moments. TWRP will open.

Flashing the SU.zip ends up in Bootloop for me._.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] iopxiang:
Did you flash the boot.img before flash SU?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Fabi7775:
Actually not, sorry.

I just thougt it is worth a try.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Vasishtha:
The SM-P600 rooting(with your patched boot) was a success! I encountered no problems at all. Only the lack of touch responsiveness of twrp 2.8.x had me worried, but thankfully the s-pen had my back and I was able to browse the twrp UI with it.

I'm now restoring all my apps with titanium backup, I'll try out xposed later this afternoon.

Regarding the LL update: wow this tablet completely feels like a new device, the fluidity is just stunning. 60 fps animations:eek:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] karthikrr:
Finally, a confirmation :) Thanks for letting us know!

As for TWRP, I believe the 2.6.3.3 (or something else in the 2.6 series) works without any problems on the P600.

XPosed is officially not out for Samsung LL, BUT Wanam has a version in development that works well, according to [MENTION=426752]iridaki[/MENTION] on this thread. If you switch TWRP or try Wanam Xposed, post an update here as well!

And yes, the LL update actually made the device feel so damn good, its practically a Note 10.1 (2015 Edition)!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Vasishtha:
Twrp 2.6.x does work, however there is no option to flash .img files on those versions.

So you either have to use heimdall or something else in order to flash that boot.

The unofficial xposed 5.1.x on my nexus 5 worked without any problems, so I expect the same for the LL variant. But I'll keep you posted.

The multiwindow transitions now have fade in/out effects <3 and we now can snap floating windows to either the left or right sides D:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] steve45058:
Planning on buying a N920I. I know I am going to miss out on Samsung Pay and VoLTE. Neither are too big of concerns for me but I was wondering if these kind of things can be flashed on to the phone.

Also. The N920I does not have compatible 3G frequencies for Tmo. Is that going to affect me at all? I live in Los Angeles so I am always on 4G LTE, but I thought I'd ask.

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] AKW:
I'm probably wrong on this one, but I didn't think international phones can work on US LTE bands, although I guess it makes sense that some would.

As far as Samsung Pay goes, you won't be able to flash it, since flashing trips KNOX which, in turn, breaks Samsung Pay. As for VOLTE, I'm pretty sure it is ONLY available on the T-Mobile variant.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] steve45058:
Even if it has the same frequencies??? Can anyone confirm?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] AKW:
Again, I'm probably wrong about international phones not working on US LTE. That's just what I've always heard, however it's not too crazy to think that nowadays that's no longer the case, especially if it has the same frequencies. As far as VOLTE goes, I am fairly sure that's a Tmo only thing, but I could be wrong about that as well. It would be cool to confirm this one way or the other though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] playya:
You guys do realize that if you simply research your phone and Tmobiles band you will find the answer. All the answers are out there for you just search my friend or call T-Mobile
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] mitbit2k3:
According to gsmarena:

LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 12(700), 17(700), 19(800), 26(850), 28(700) - N920I
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] steve45058:
Well my main questions were if not having the 3G bands were going to hurt me as well as is are VoLTE and Samsung Pay Flashable.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] playya:
Again Google 5 seconds tops to find others asking the saaaaame thing. Do you think VoLTE is an app?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] steve45058:
How about you not be a **** and help me out. I obviously did google this and I couldn't find an answer. That's why I come to a forum like xda to ask others who might know. Why you waste time telling others to google when it would be just easier to say the answer if you know. Theoretically if it had the same LTE bands I would think VoLTE should be possible. That's why I ask.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] playya:
I believe in teaching a man how to fish for themselves. Stop being lazy and search that's how I feel I feel it's easier to search than to create a thread have it run for a few pages when a good half hour search would of taken care of it all.

Did you even read the thread I posted plus I saw other stuff. Did you even try calling the provider.... Ok Peace out!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] steve45058:
Now you're being a troll. Call the provider? Are you joking me? Stop being an asshole. You as well as I know that they don't know crap. Why don't you read my original post. It was about if not having 3g would screw me over it was a general question to see if any individuals have been screwed because they didn't have 3G. I googled if VoLTE was flashable and couldn't find a definite answer sp I ask it here to more knowledgeable individuals.

You are the problem with forums these days. Why do you insult newer posters assuming they are all ignorant. I may not post a lot here, but I do my research before I post. The way you assume and be an asshole about it is ridiculous.

If you don't have anything nice to say don't say it at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] playya:
Actually you are the issue one with your language at no point did I insult you and two with not doing a little leg work to find out your answer. It's OK bruh a troll I am not I have been in these forums for quite some time. I wish you well and hope you find a resolution. :laugh: :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] steve45058:
Telling individuals to Google something without knowing if they did beforehand is insulting and especially when you keep on telling the individual to Google while providing no help at all. Then you say to stop being lazy and search. Not insulting? Yeah right. Cool you post a lot here. Doesn't give you a right to talk to individuals the way you do.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] playya:
No

How about when you Google for them and post the link? Of course calling another person names is OK in your book... Wow how backwards are we really..

Hahaha wow you blind individual keep me entertained I tell you... Rules here are too search before posting Rules here are not to insult other members but I am wrong You My Friend are A...... Well God Bless You!

We done take care my address for not spoon feeding
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] steve45058:
Get off your high horse. I never said I was right to call you names (my bad on that). Don't insult individuals thinking they don't know everything. Also everyone searches things differently. No one has the same search strategy. Just because you found it doesn't mean I would have.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] garyd9:
blah, blah, blah. Wow. 2 pages of bickering and no real answers.

VoLTE is soft or firmware based, so it would be possible in theory. The "c" is variant firmware is closer to "t" firmware, I think, when compared to the "i" variant. (Both the "t" and "c" variants are using ims while the "i" doesn't. It may even be possible to flash the "t" modem to the "c" (or "i") variants, but I honestly don't know for sure.

I'm currently using a "i" variant phone with a "c" variant kernel with a SYSTEM partition from a "t" variant. The modem is still "i". Oh, and because I wanted to mix things up as much as possible, I'm doing all this on AT&T (which normally uses a "a" variant.) No, it doesn't work with AT&T VoLTE, but I don't have AT&T firmware, modem, etc. (Only the SIM.)

So... if I were trying what you are, here's what I'd do:

0. Have a TMO device handy that supports VoLTE. This is just so I could compare when I _should_ see VoLTE and when I shouldn't.

1. Make sure I can ODIN my phone back to stock. That means having ODIN, having the proper odin files to get back to stock, etc.

2. Realize that if I haven't already tripped KNOX, I will now (and that I can never restore KNOX.)

3. Follow one of the various guides for root/TWRP (or Philz.)

4. Flash a PERMISSIVE "i" kernel. (I've mixed the "skyhigh" 'i' with a tmobile deodex with no problems.) -- you need permissive as none of the 'i' kernels have IMS policies in place.

5 Flash a TMO deodex firmware.

6. See what happens...

You MAY be able to flash a "t" modem on the "i" device using something like "flash fire" from Chainfire. I can't tell you that it'd work (or that it won't) as I've never tried it. (You wouldn't be able to cross flash modems using ODIN.) Flashing the different modem is a risk. I don't THINK it would brick anything, but that's only a guess and I can't know for sure.

Good luck

I'm considering buying the note 5 and i really like how this metal bumper looks especially with a back skin: http://www.twdevilcase.com/en/index.php?menu=prod_detail&mid=1&did=6&pid=5090&list=class

Anyone using it for the note 5 and can write a little review about it? Does it degrade from the reception of the phone? Basically the reception concern is the only thing that keeps me from buying it so i wonder how the note 5 operates with it installed.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] AKW:
I haven't tried it personally, but I can almost guarantee that it will not interfere with reception. The sides of the phone are already metal.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] AntLyoN2053:
I had it on my old M7, great bumper and did not interfere with the reception at all. Basically opposite of the ebay bumpers with the signal blocking and scratching the crap out of the aluminum
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] Hezzennater:
I have the GHOSTEK CLOAK and it didn't affect any of the signals. The DEVILCASE looks like it has more aluminum, but I doubt that will have much impact.

Have an aluminum frame around the phone by Samsung is much different than an aluminum bumper. You were right to ask. I was hesitant at first to buy mine. The reason is that Samsung puts in "antenna bands" into the frame. If you look closely they have little spots of plastic instead of aluminum. All aluminum phones (that I know of) have these. For whatever reason though, I guess the glass back has plenty of antennas so aluminum bumpers are inconsequential to the signals.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] entropism:
People are complaining about other metal bumpers because they cover the plastic antenna bands on the metal shell, which kills reception.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] plokm:
look nice
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] amirprog:
Ok, I'm buying the bumper for my next phone, most likely the note 5.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] amirprog:
Devilcase response in regard to reception: "Metal does affect reception , it depends on your own reception and location , if yours is quite good all the time , won't be affect too much ."

So it does affect reception and the bumper is needed to be bought and tried in real usage in other to know how much the signal is effected.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] pacion:
They released Note 5 on US Amazon now. Check the link below. They combine note 4 and 5 into one marketplace. It seems like Note 4 performs good on signal reception. The rating is really good.
