[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
Flashing the factory images replaces the current kernel (if using the flash-all script). If you have flashed them one by one, did you flash the boot.img file?

To root MM builds, check SuperSU MM thread to flash a modified boot image then flash SuperSU or flash a custom kernel then SuperSU.

lol, yes it is.. youre looking for the latest stock rom, but twrp flashable ;)

im using JDX, which is a plain stock rom, but with some fixes. but, just so you know, anything twrp flashable even stock, still wont be stock when flashing an ota update.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Mr A:
Official samsung 6.0! Ota ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
Apparently yes. Uploading some pictures now
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] malnash52@gmail.com:
How is this possible
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
I have no clue. It happened a little while ago
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] farfromovin:
WTF? Awesome. This looks like official T-Mobile OTA but it's definitely not available for mine yet...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rx8Driver:
Wonder why the baseband is unknown?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
My phone lost the imei info earlier.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rx8Driver:
Intrigued....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] egren58:
Are you rooted?..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rx8Driver:
My guess would be no if he's getting OTA'S?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] DLUX24:
So were you rooted at first at all? That's crazy. .haha
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
Not anymore.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rx8Driver:
Yeah just go ahead and send me a twrp backup image i can restore on mine ;)

---------- Post added at 07:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:22 PM ----------

I'll be sure to let everyone know how it goes ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
I was rooted earlier today running locos v3. Had some issues and Odin back to coi5. Tried to update thinking it would go to j5 and got marshmallow.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] egren58:
Wth. This makes no since you got the OTA While rooted. Do you remember what rom you had etc. Maybe someone can get the update if they have the same setup
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
I wasnt rooted when i got the update.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rx8Driver:
There's the catch, you needed an update and they've gone ahead and updated the Ota system to send out marshmallow instead of lp they just haven't pushed it yet! I'd be curious to see if it can be reproduced by Odining coi5 and trying it again!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
Probably not. With no imei info i guess it didnt know what to do so it went with the latest.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
[MENTION=4898097]arter97[/MENTION] got everything he said he needed. If someone wants to connect again I'll do it. Or if the steps can be provided.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
Apparently the trick is simply to return to stock COJ5 (via ODIN, no root) and remove the sim card...

http://www.tmonews.com/2015/11/one-...er-appears-to-have-gotten-android-6-0-update/

(at the bottom.... the comments...)

that will enable the Marshmallow Update...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
I was considering giving that a shot but I think they're talking about the Nexus 6
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
That's on the Nexus 6.

Edit - ninja'd
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jdidtht:
Is that why it says note 5 everywhere and this thread is dedicated to note 6.0? Lol okayyyyy
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] guaneet:
Try to back up efs before you take the update and restore it after, assuming it doesn't need root.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
Scroll through their convo in the comments, they're talking about the nexus and it's updates right up till then.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Everyone on tmonews has been raging for awhile now about the Nexus update not being pushed, the SIM trick is for the Nexus 6.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jdidtht:
But your failing to see the similarity between dannon getting the update in a very very similar way.. so the question is will it work
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jordy787:
You think that would work on my T-Mobile s6 edge plus ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
This is true, I was going to give it a shot on my lunch today but I don't know if I want to waste the time backing up all of my stuff just to have it not work. I was thinking the reason he got the update while doing this process was because his IMEI was missing at the time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
Honestly... no idea... at least that's how it seems they are doing it... (at least on the Nexus 6, to be specific this time...lol)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jordy787:
Hahaha ima post and see if someone will try it on the s6e+?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
It's worth a shot but the difference is that Nexus updates come from Google and the only reason they are being held back right now is because of the carriers... Since the Nexus 6 works on every carrier it makes sense that the update would come through on WiFi with no SIM card because they aren't voiding carrier obligations. This sounds like a server bug and if we can get the actual URL of the download we will have Marshmallow now. It is too large to be an OTA and the way that Google set so many requirements for Marshmallow (encryption being a major one), this may well be a full ROM image release that doesn't wipe data.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
is there any other way to see the url other than wireshark? I don't feel like dealing with trying to update this phone again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Adb logcat before installing the update. Scan it for a url with a zip file. Just as soon as the update pops up, fire up adb logcat before even downloading it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
Only way I know of is to go back to stock, try and update again and once you have the notification run aLogcat and watch for a URL in the logs.

I would be incredibly grateful if you managed to get a hold of this! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
I want to know what state your phone is in. What do you get when you plug in *#06# in the dialer?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
Its blank. It shows the serial number no imei number. Somewhere during the update it goes away. Prior to updating there Is a imei number it's just not correct.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Interesting it's showing your serial number. Do you have a Bluetooth address? This sounds like some really wild and random EFS corruption, it usually loses everything.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
Well trying again. Root failed. If it works a 3rd time I would say mm can be achieved on another note 5 if its reset and an update its made without the sim.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Thanks for everything you're doing!

By the way I would use adb logcat instead of the aLogcat app. Nothing gets missed by adb. aLogcat can be screwy sometimes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
I'll give it a shot, odin doesn't trip knox does it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jordy787:
Nope odin stock doesn't
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
Can you point me to safe stock rom files? I have N920TUVU2COJ5_N920TTMB2COJ5_N920TUVU2COJ5_HOME.tar.md5 currently but I am afraid as I have never done the process.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] sathishm07:
Could you pls tell, whether u could find any samsung made changes, apart from google changelog in marshmallow, on this rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
I'm saving it to a text file. Anymore information I could search for besides zip or http? There's a ton of those.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
Weird, did this trip your knox or anything? I'm backing up my stuff to my OTG drive.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
I don't know what Samsung's OTA servers are. You're looking for a long zip file name that should be right before you fired up logcat (so the last 10 or 20 lines)

If you upload it to pastebin.com we can all scan through them too. When you click download it should populate a url immediately.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jordy787:
Wouldn't the build number be in the url like the Sammobile links ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
Well give me little bit I think I started it after. I'll have to see if I can get the update again. 3 times in a short time may have been my limit
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
It should have dumped the whole log from before you started the logcat but it does not good if you haven't been prompTed with the mm update yet. As soon as you get the update notification, you pop adb logcat and the URL should be right there. Hopefully it pops up again.

Can you upload what you have to pastebin or mediafire so we can pick through it?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
I think in order for anyone to replicate this, they'll have to break their EFS and lose their IMEI like he did.

Its easy enough to fix as long as you have a backup, I'm just not at my computer right now to run Odin back to stock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] JonathanRAZ:
Yeah but hope you fix that imei thing maybe that is why you are getting mm does imei has to do anything with carrier spesific?? Or they are generic like that has nothing to do???

---------- Post added at 08:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 PM ----------

I have a backup of my efs its a efs.img???
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jdidtht:
Or just capture the ota, talking about breaking ones efs in order to grab an update is preposterous to me. Just capture the ota and post it.. tons of tutorials available
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
Bluetooth works.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
Trying for the 4th time hopefully it updates again. I may have the link soon.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jdidtht:
Your the man
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
Not sure what this jansky settings are either. When I do it it goes to provision but never finishes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
If you want to try it, select the option in Odin to clear the EFS and go back to J5, seems like that's what has been working for him. Just make sure you know how to restore it. The easiest way in my opinion is to grab an Aroma ROM that has backup and restore functionality like Darthstalker. I would make multiple backups through tools and Aroma and everything to make absolutely certain you have a good restore image.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] CJLewis87:
Is the app drawer still scrollable pages or the new vertical one in stock MM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jainyankee1993:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] JonathanRAZ:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
Seriously, you are awesome man.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] dh2311:
But still no signal?

When you're reflashing stock ROMS are you repartitioning with the correct pit file? And making sure you're flashing a valid baseband/modem?

I've corrupted my EFS a few times, and it breaks everything, I don't think your EFS is corrupt. Or this phone is different to older ones and some details are saved out of the EFS
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] 1619415:
Why not just pull all the .img's? like system.img? If you want, send me a PM and I will try to help you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
It shouldn't as long as you have a good backup but as with all things dev, you are taking a risk, I want to make sure you know that.

---------- Post added at 02:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:14 PM ----------

See that's why I'm wondering if the Note 5 doesn't work differently too, hence the Bluetooth question.

another idea...

How about posting the broken EFS partition... (TWRP backup of EFS)

then we can backup our EFS... restore the broken EFS partition... get the update... then restore the good EFS...

in theory... it should work...

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] 1619415:
Has anyone been able to make a flashable with the system files?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Well it depends on what the Note 5 loses by EFS but I think TEKHD's idea is actually a better one, I don't know why I didn't think of that one myself.

That would be the most likely option to work, I feel dumb for not thinking about that.

Yeah let the log run if you're dumping it to text, the file link will definitely be in there.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Xileforce:
Shouldnt need to run the whole time. The link should be right when u hit download I would guess.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] RidinNerdy:
Sorry for the noob question but Can I flash this via Odin? And if I can will it trip knox? Thankful in advance![emoji6]

(I'm not rooted)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
With a bit of work... The dump is the raw partitions, they need to be made into images and made into a tarball.

I don't know if it has been tried yet but people have the files so it shouldn't be very long.

---------- Post added at 02:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:35 PM ----------

No, those are raw images not tarballs, they can't be flashed with Odin. Yeah any tarball made from these images will trip KNOX because it won't be signed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
Ethereal,

Since you seem like the knowledgeable one on here in regards to this topic. Would the update.zip that came from the OTA be flashable in stock recovery for non-rooted users?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jordy787:
Someone should try that! Or maybe I'd be down too...but I have a s6 edge +...would I still be able to use note 5 efs or firmware ??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
working on posting this the log to pastebin. i dont see any links but maybe some else can find it. the last 2 times i have not had to check for updates. once i get logcat setup i turn on wifi. within 3 minutes it starts updating.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
That's one that I don't know. The first thing I do when I get any new device is root and flash the recovery. I haven't used a stock recovery since Eclair or FroYo... somewhere around there.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] 1619415:
Has anyone manged to convert the raw files into images? and of all the raw files, which do we absolutely need to boot?

I mean until you know for sure I wouldnt go purposefully corrupting the EFS partition until you know for sure you can repair it and that there is an update.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jdidtht:
I think he means if he were to use your specific lost Imei on his device to see if it would trigger the ota on his device, and then restoring his good efs after the update. Or that's what I get out of his.post anyways, or maybe I read that completely wrong.. lol

yes... from COJ5... (it should work from any version) but just to be 100% sure... yes COJ5... TWRP backup of the EFS and we should be able to do the same.

When you exactly lost IMEI? It was before updating to M or after update.

You have ever got working device (I mean call /baseband) after getting update to M?

i marked phone efs clear and nothing

it erased something when rebooted but i still have my imei
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] 1619415:
cd desktop

adb logcat > logcat.txt

Use that to then just upload the file here
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Get ES file explorer, put it on root mode, exit it, then go to /EFS and copy the IMEI folder somewhere and delete the mps_code.dat and see if that does it. Really you can back up the whole folder and delete the whole thing but since his Bluetooth and WiFi are working, I'm willing to bet we just need to mess up the IMEI and maybe the nv_data.bin
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
idk whats up with the phone. i do have an IMEI number on lollipop but its incorrect. idk where it came from but its not mine it looks generic.
