Can u a also check for battery life.. what's your time screen on...lol na on a serious note.... do u notice the battery draining quick?

Thanks in advance
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jainyankee1993:
you need to be rooted for this though.. and you’re not rooted on marshmallow right?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
The phone doesn't have signal so I can't really say. Its on wifi when I update it to marshmallow
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] DLUX24:
Really! He's trying to get this url for us, you think he's watching the battery stats..don't think so
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
if we can get a zip of the log, the OTA address has to be in there from the time he clicked download.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
see pm
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
Finally back to j5. I'm not certain this method will work. If I root to get to twrp I won't get the update. Or do you just need the efs partition?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Just the EFS so we can see if flashing your EFS makes all of our phones do it too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] thatotherguy..:
USE AT OWN RISK, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU FLASH AND WILL MESS UP YOUR DEV ROOT KEY

This will make your baseband and imei unknown

Use in odin via AP

here is the log. i'm either not doing it right or the link is not there. maybe i'm just missing it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
don't worry... you just need TWRP... Try the update.zip 1st (see PM) then... TWRP -> EFS Backup...

we are going both ways... bullet proof... update.zip + EFS Backup (if you can...)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] cxhugh:
I prefer the design on Android L
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] dr.ketan:
It means you lost IMEI after updating to M

It is not new from Samsung and periodically it has screwed up this way in past too. May be your baseband was not updated with first update and multiple time this happened that new kernel makes some modification in efs folder (it highly suggestive same here as BT is working fine) and old modem doesn't recognize this changes and ultimately no imei.

In this case only two options are there.

Flash old rom + old efs backup restore if you have made it on older base.

Or

When Samsung push new base including baseband, flashing that should solve it.

I highly recommend to make efs backup before tempering anything so at least you can return back to same state.

Also reason of efs corruption is same then flashing this kernel should cause same for others as well unless you managed new baseband

Good luck
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
His IMEI was gone before he got the update. That's when he got the update.

I went through the log, it was started too late, there's no link.

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

Danon explains that he was having some issues with his IMEI info earlier today, so he used the Samsung Odin tool to restore his Note 5 back to the stock firmware. After restoring his phone, he went into System Update and rather than getting an update to N920TUVU2COJ5, the most recent official update for the T-Mo Note 5, he got an update to N920TUVU2DOK5. After downloading and installing, he found himself on Android 6.0!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] kristijan14:
Maybe he could pull the update.zip by using samsung smart switch? But the problem would be if the update is only OTA and not possible to do using smart switch... I also found this ( http://teamcspire.com/index.php?/to...(For-Return-To-stock-.tar.md5-For-Use-In-Odin) ), it may be helpful.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] 1619415:
Try running the command again, before you check with the OTA
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jainyankee1993:
the OTA is in the /cache folder.. I’m not sure if you’re rooted or not, but if you are, get it from the cache folder and put it in storage?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
so the imei isn't exactly lost. It just doesn't work like it should. I can use the phone as a phone if I'm wifi on lollipop ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] dr.ketan:
I have report from latest lollipop too. I think one guy [MENTION=420564]namfat[/MENTION] had same issue. Downgrading to previous base he lost IMEI but he recovered with latest one.

Anyway solution should be

-get fixed with new full update

-Restoring backup but I think he don't have it.

Otherwise Samsung service station can do it easily.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
I don't get why Samsung hasn't fixed this... Its been an issue since the first Galaxy S phone! My Captivate (AT&T Samsung Galaxy S) lost its IMEI but back then we could restore it without a backup...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] NotATreoFan:
I haven't done this on Samsung, but as long as the update.zip he pulls does not get modified in any way, and the MD5 and all remain intact, you could use ADB sideload from within stock recovery. I used to do it all the time with my Nexus 6 and 7.

If you can get a rooted version of LP to download the update, just power it down after it downloads (before the install starts) and go into TWRP to grab it using ADB pull. The OTA is stored on your device until the install is successful.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] bigxie:
Yeah, I think this may work. He doesn't even need to be rooted, just download the update fully while completely stock. Power down, flash TWRP with Odin, boot in to it, and grab the file via adb pull out of /cache ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jainyankee1993:
Pretty sure he needs to be rooted to add pull anything out of /cache
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] bigxie:
Shouldn't need root while booted into recovery (TWRP) to access cache.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jainyankee1993:
If this is true, didn’t know this.. and this is an easy workaround then... right?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Cache is not accessible from recovery. It shows up as an empty folder in the shell.

He would have to root and run adb shell, su, and then cp the zip to /sdcard
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
Nevermind... XD
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] SamuelBegui:
This made me chuckle lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] chazzy1656:
note 4

i know u probably dont know a bout it but do you think it will works the same with the note 4 ? if i go back to stock then try to update?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jdidtht:
Well probably because they specifically don't really want us rooting our devices is why
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
No I fixed it... I went to go test and see if it could be done in recovery before I inserted my foot in my mouth and cache shows up as an empty folder in recovery. So I changed my post back XD

---------- Post added at 04:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:07 PM ----------

I get that but it wasn't rooting that caused the problem for me, it was an official Samsung update. -_-
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] ktetreault14:
Try chain fires new system less root? Or do we need a modified boot
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
twrp backups are uploading. if the update hasnt been pulled i'm going to try again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jainyankee1993:
You're the realest MVP!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] bigxie:
Are you sure it's mounted? Like gotta hit mount, and make sure cache is checked.

I don't have TWRP on my Note 5, but it works in Philz (access to cache) and on TWRP on my Z2.

EDIT: I guess this is a moot point if we have a working backup, but devs would probably still want the .zip
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
You are freaking awesome Danon.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Let me try it again, I thought I mounted it but I don't like PhilZ, it doesn't always do what it says...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] pcriz:
But wont he bootloop if he doesnt at least flash a kernel once he is done before coming out of TWRP? It always works the first time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
here they are. the first is with twrp official twrp the second is with the alpha twrp

use at your own risk!!!!!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Second time it pulled like a charm. Who knows, maybe I mounted the wrong partition lol.

So its definitely a go in recovery.

If he doesn't want to bootloop coming out of TWRP, reboot bootloader and flash stock recovery image with Odin?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] bigxie:
Oh yeah, I get around that by booting into recovery directly before system even has a chance to start up (power+home+up).

By the way, doesn't this mean that even with a TWRP backup, we won't be able to boot up unless we restore it, then flash the stock (MM) recovery?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] malnash52@gmail.com:
So what's going on guys so how can I get marshmallow?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] pcriz:
Off topic and I have to apologize but I knew I recognized your name and then I remembered your work from the Droid X, such a blast from the past. Thanks for all your work bro!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Google Drive sure is taking a long time to make a zip file so I can download this....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
download 5 is a go. i dont have the option to postpone. it just goes soon after i connect the phone to wifi. so i'm doing download mode once it completes and not restarting? flashing twrp and the update will be on the phone somewhere?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
You should see pospone right after the download... if not... simply reboot into download mode right after download is over... and flash TWRP
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
you might be right it may be there. i think i did hit it once and then it showed a clock to install at a certain time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
The last thing... if you can... (I know you have been doing this the whole day) a full DOK5 TWRP Backup (same as you did with COJ5)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Ah crap! I made a backup but didn't remove my fingerprints first... Do I have to redo the backup or just remove the fingerprints before I erase my phone and restore his backup? I just got this thing on Friday, still learning the ins and outs.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
Just this. Not sure why my v10 always post pictures sideways
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
Yeap... update... then postpone...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
I had that but on twrp as the recovery and it looped. The only way I see getting it is with Phil's. I'm able to flash Phil's and still boot the phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] egren58:
After the download is done you have the option to postpone. Or install right away
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
So wait, that's with your SIM card out? You've got a full T-Mobile signal :eek:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
then with Phil's... that's ok... once we get that backup... I think we have the complete kit to start developing...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
correct. if i put the sim in the phone it will work 100% on lollipop and on wifi

mount cache

adb shell

cd cache

ls

look for a zip file in there and do cp filename.zip /sdcard
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
TWRP's File Manager... (inside Advanced) copy update.zip to internal memory... (sdcard) (then boot & upload)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
That works too. I'm so used to doing things with adb haha.

You're a trooper bro! Every MM Rom better have your name attached..haha
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Well for those wanting to try his TWRP image, its frozen on the bootloader screen for me. I'm going to try flashing arter's kernel and see if it will boot. Recovery still works and everything.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
inside root... data folder or data/data (it should be there, I did it a about 2 weeks ago)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
that would be be nice. i do it for the thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jainyankee1993:
It's not in the /cache folder?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] gharris040604:
I've been to sleep and woke up, this gent is still at it...... Wow! Thanks man
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
no... (at least COJ5 was in data...or maybe even in the root... but I am sure it wasn't cache)

[MENTION=2517332]danon.brown[/MENTION] see pm
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
Root is empty and data/data its not there either. Assuming its update.zip and it would be alphabetical.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Yeah I couldn't even get it to check for system updates... Going back to my backup. It wouldn't connect to WiFi calling either.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] bigxie:
Did the tarball of TWRP you flashed have a cache.img in it by chance? Flashing that would have wiped the cache I guess (if it was actually in there instead of /data)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] ricosuave88:
Can someone at least post flashable zip even tho some functions don't work would love to get a taste of the baby lol ...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
Found it. Hopefully this is it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jdidtht:
How about some patience
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
damn... that's it... perfect.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Yeah so for those of you thinking about trying his TWRP, don't. I figured out why it didn't work. The phone flashed an "unauthorized modification, this device has been locked, contact your carrier for more information" or something of the sort message at me when I was setting it up but then it got covered up by the WiFi selection screen and when I went back it wasn't there. His EFS is damaged but it managed to overwrite the serial number on my phone anyway which triggered something inside the phone to shut everything off but WiFi. If my SIM was in the phone, it probably would have been very bad... I didn't realize it changed the serial until I went to put the case back on and saw that mine was completely different.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
So how do I copy it off again? We may be screwed. I don't have a modified kernel on the phone so it will probably loop.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
*gasps for air* YES!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] ricosuave88:
I was only kidding dude sheesh living up ... :pplease ... Danon brown what I'm thankful for this year is you sir ^ <
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
You should be able to adb pull the folder that has the zip to your PC, right?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
copy to internal memory... or OTG drive if you have one... then boot... (if you can't boot) just odin stock coj5... (that will not erase your internal)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] whymoo:
But you will probably need to copy it to sdcard first. Anybody who flashes this zip should be careful might frack up the imei
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
adb pull /data/fota/update.zip

If that fails

adb shell

cp /data/fota/update.zip /sdcard
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] danon.brown:
I was getting that message. Tmobile said they can't change the imei number so here I am with no service on it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] bigxie:
You could try adb pull /data/fota/update.zip

That should copy the file on to your computer (assuming you have adb set up and working while in recovery).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Yeah I noticed the IMEI was like 32 or 35, a bunch of 0s and a few numbers at the end.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daiskei:
Wow, that's some crazy stuff. Well, the update.zip should be handy to us!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Manh_IT:

Currently running custom rom and kernel on TWRP. Am I safe to flash update.zip in recovery as is? Or should I go back to stock first and/or get Philztouch recovery? I've read most of this thread but use my phone for work so don't want to take any chances.
