Any help? thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kapooranuj:
Thank you both #dhplap & #gadget!

Will certainly try and let you people know

I remember having done the quick copy paste thingy even last time around for PaulPizz 5.1.1 several months back and was ready with a MSWord file this time as well.

But ADB devices mentioned a device ID and 'unauthorised' or something like that.

Will try again and come back to you people.

Once again - Thanks for your effort in wanting to help

Regards

Do you have adb debugging checked in developer options? And after you type adb devices in command prompt make sure you look at your phone to allow adb debugging on your pc.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] android-incredible:
If you have adb debugging checked and when you type adb devices nothing happens on your phone ?, you have to unselect the USB debugging and selected again, and type adb devices and you have to see a message on your phone ? and allow adb debugging.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gunz.jones:
What worked for me was to use the pc version of kingroot/king0root. Make sure that after you put the phone to the comp with adb debugging it requests the rsa screen and you allow always. If that doesn't work, reset the allowance using the option that should be right below debugging. Once you achieve root, the phone may become sluggish and not switch to mtp mode, so that's another reason I used the pc version. It'll be in mtp already and you'll have root if the program was successful. Make sure to keep screen on while charging if you haven't. The screen turning off can cause a reboot or root to fail for some reason.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kapooranuj:
Thanks Senior Members!

The solution that you were suggesting worked like a charm

Yes, the phone wasnt prompting to allow usb debugging - revoking worked

And yes starting with ADB and rooting with KingOroot after three commands gave me a very comfortable window.

Just one thing, since the installation with 6.0.1 my computer charges the phone but doesnt see it. Restarted both several times. Developer options enabled on Note4, USB debugging allowed. Allow this computer always - done. Still PC (Win10) gives USB device malfunction error.

Many thanks again.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dhplap:
You might want to uninstall the samsung drivers on your pc and then reinstall them again. Also, I had that happen once and I connected my phone to the pc as an installer, then a window popped up asking what I wanted to do and I clicked install _____. Can't remember exactly what it said, but after that it worked. Worth a shot anyway. Good luck
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
Swipe into the notification center and check to see if USB is connected as an installer or using MTP.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Snake-Plissken:
Alright, lets get started. I have a note 4 dev editon and currently on 5.0.1

I would like to upgrade to MM and looks like I have to unlock my bootloader either way? right?

I read the OP and have some questions....

Unlock your Lollipop bootloader to match CID (start here)

- Copy that. That means just typing the commands in the post (after clicking on start here)

You can ignore this step if you did it already. If not and for Developer Edition owners, I'd recommend to flash N910VVRU2BPA1 Full Firmware via Odin before unlocking.

- Beacuse I have a dev edition I will install this firmware first before doing the step mentioned before. How do I flash it in Odin? AP? or any of the other fields?

Boot into Download Mode

- easy

Extract and flash N910VVRU2BPA1_N910VVRU2CPD1_FullFirmware.tar.md5 via Odin

- I guess this will be flashed the same way as above mentioned firmware. For example AP? Am I right using AP to flahs it?

This will make you on Lollipop with Marshmallow bootchain/firmware/modem, which is rootable.

Root your device (Check General Section for detailed instructions)

_ Thats how I root or? http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66381707&postcount=342 Can anyone send me a link for the required Kingroot version: i am afraid that some people upload malicious apks. Downloaded two so far and there is a size difference of 3 MB. I found 4.9.6 here on XDA. Will this work too because the post states a different version

Note that WiFi will not work due to the updated bootloader, but you can use Mobile data if needed for rooting.

Unlock the bootloader using the same method:

- This means doing the same thing as step one of this instruction?

CLICK TO SHOW CONTENT

Boot into Download Mode

- Easy

Extract and flash twrp-3.0.2-0-trltevzw.tar.md5 via Odin

- How do I flash it in Odin? AP?

Boot into TWRP recovery

- Easy

Flash MM Safe Upgrade, JasmineROM v6.0, CM13 or any MM ROM

- Easy

Reboot to system

- Easy

ENJOY!

I will, if it works :)

Is there and disadvantage if my CID changes? I have a dev edtion. How do I back up my CID, just in twrp?

Sorry for the many questions, but I want to make sure I got it right and dont brick my phone...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] getyroks:
[MENTION=5868929]hsbadr[/MENTION] how easy is it to root this version? As hard as regular lollipop? Cause I had a hard time getting that to be stable enough to run the adb commands. .... twice for that matter.

Nevermind, I did it in about 20 minutes... but getting a good ROM is another story(4 hours later)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Snake-Plissken:
So how do I flash the full rom in odin? Put it in AP? or another slot?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] yossijoe:
A quick Google search would give you the answer.

Yes, the ap slot
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ieAnd:
I'm on an outdated version of PaulPizz ROM with bootloader N910VVRU2CPD1. I was looking to update finally, yet the PaulPizz thread says I need N910VVRU2CPF3. How would I go about safely updating to that? Thank you for your time.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
All you really need to do is flash the CPF3 modem (and the CPD2 modem usually works fine). The bootloaders are exactly the same.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Snake-Plissken:
I tried to get this going and tried to install N910VVRU2BPA1 Full Firmware as mentioned in the OP to do for Dev Editions before unlocking the bootloader.

I put it in Odin in the AP slot and when I hit start I get:

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> Please wait..

I am in Download Mode. What am I doing wrong?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] homephysician:
Have you done the unlock? Pull battery.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Snake-Plissken:
what you mean by pull battery?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] homephysician:
Remove the battery
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Snake-Plissken:
Lol I know, but wihtout battery I cant boot in download mode?

I guess I got it. just pulled battery during boot and now its flashing ;)

weird tho. Pulled battery before, restarted and all that stuff. nothing worked.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Snake-Plissken:
how can i verify that my bootloader is unlocked?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
Download mode will say MODE: DEVELOPER. Also, if you can flash TWRP, it's unlocked.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Snake-Plissken:
I was hoping thats the indicator. and yes its saying Developer :) awesome.

Will go to the next steps and see where else I will get stuck ;) thanks for the quick reply

---------- Post added at 03:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:15 AM ----------

does anyone know a good tool for windows to reformat my sd card I used to unlock the bootloader? right now windows only sees 19 MB of a 16 GB card...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
Partition Wizard is what I use.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Snake-Plissken:
I followed the guide as close as possible. Some things didnt work. After flashing the lollipop rom with marshmallow modem/bootloader I was unable to do a wipe. Neither in Android or Recovery. Recovery wouldnt even boot and after that I got bootloops.

I reflashed it and just continued without wiping. It took me forever to get my device rootet and the bootloader unlocked again, because android rebooted all the time This was probably because I didnt do a factory reset.

But made it all the way through and now on marshmallow :)

Thanks for the great guide and the possibility :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] xFLiP227x:
I'm a Note 4 DE owner wanting to upgrade to MM. I've already backed up my "aboot" via EFS Professional. How do you back up the CID (it's not listed under the 'Device Partitions')? And how can I go about requesting a "Special Unlock Binary" for my device. I've already tried contacting the appropriate person as per the NOTES in the OP...no reply as of yet.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] endleesss:
How long did it take to flash..
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mittadam:
I unlocked Lollipop and was on the old JasmineROM. So you're saying I have to reflash MM in Odin and then flash the new JasmineROM?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] SlothlyDX:
Ummm well that is the purpose of this OP. It says you have to do complete upgrade to MM root, unlock bootloader then flash newest jasmine.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] android-incredible:
You didn't mention the SD card. Does this procedure format the micro SD card?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] civichater:
Yes. You need a formatted memory card just like the original process
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mittadam:
Ok, thanks!

The OP is a bit confusing. I will start over.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] douger1957:
I saw that the baseband had been updated after I flashed the full firmware.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] douger1957:
The road had a few bumps but I was successful. Thank you very much to hsbadr, ryanbg, and beaups for all of your hard work.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Cauterized:
Don't attempt this using mobile odin with the dual boot patcher. I initially unlocked BPA1 using mobile odin, but this time i tried doing it with mobile odin and on my secondary ROM, it was definitely a mistake. I am pretty damn bricked now.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] douger1957:
Can you get into download mode and will desktop ODIN recognize your phone? Then it's unlikely that you're truly bricked.

If you can, start from scratch. Install the BPA .tar, root, then pick up the instructions from there.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Cauterized:
I can't even boot my phone with a freshly charged battery. Power button does nothing. I don't blame anybody but myself. Hadn't switched between primary and secondary in so long that I forgot I was dual booted at all.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] xanderharris86:
Does the FullFirmware tar file get put into the AP or BL section of Odin?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fz798:
AP
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
O_o. That's not good. Holding down the key combo for download mode does nothing too?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] leifyguy:
So if I'm on bpa1 with jasmine rom v4.3 can I just start at this step:

"Extract and flash N910VVRU2BPA1_N910VVRU2CPD1_FullFirmware.tar.md5 via Odin

This will make you on Lollipop with Marshmallow bootchain/firmware/modem, which is rootable."
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Cauterized:
Unfortunately that is the case. I have 2 other note 4's laying around and had no problems with any of them, but the one that was dual booted and on secondary rom is doing nothing. Not a fault of the OP or this process, I don't want anyone to get the wrong impression. I did a dumb thing.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fz798:
I've seen this before, sometimes oddly it seems to help to let the phone sit without the battery in it for some time. Try at least 10 minutes or longer then put the battery back in, it might power on then
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
That's certainly weird.

I'd definitely try something like this. Although, have you tried plugging it in? Maybe the battery thing comes up.

---------- Post added at 07:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:10 PM ----------

If you already have your bootloader unlocked on BPA1, I think the OP says you can do the upgrade. Remember, it will wipe your phone.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] xanderharris86:
So I followed all the steps and was able to get into twrp at the end of the process... but jasmine won't sideload from twrp, I get the error "Cannot read JasmineROM_v6.0_N910VVRU2CPD1.zip" any suggestions?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
Re-download it. It sounds like a corrupt file.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] xanderharris86:
Done that twice now. Even an old file that was working before is saying it now.

Edit: luckily I have a ton of roms on my PC, I was able to find one that would sideload... waiting to see the outcome now.

Edit2: Getting bootloops at the custom rom screen after trying 3 different roms. Suggestions welcome :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] MHD_aliwe:
what if i flash N910VVRU2BPA1_N910VVRU2CPD1_FullFirmware.tar.md5 via flashfire ( without recovery ) then flash cm13 dose this work ? and thank you :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] theruizfamily:
I went through the entire process. Just want to say that Kingoroot is very unstable. Anyways, on the final wipe while in TWRP everyone says wipe "everything". When people write "everything" does that mean all the boxes in Advances Wipe are checked or only both caches and system? Or maybe does it mean a factory reset? The first time I did it I checked off all the boxes in Advanced Wipe then TWRP was not able to recognize my SD card.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] theruizfamily:
I ended up wiping everything except internal and externally memory as one of the post said they did. And it seems to have worked.

I installed one MicroSd but it failed when flashing Jasmine. I used another MicroSd and it worked. Now Im thinking the MicroSd that I used is bad. But it is the same MicroSD that I used during adb process. Interesting. I need to find a way to test the MicroSd card......

Now it immediately tries to update...Should I let it? Suggestions?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Snake-Plissken:
If it's the micro sd card you used to unlock your boot loader, then the phone and your pc won't recognize the card anymore. Well Windows recognized only 19 mb out of a 16GB card.

First you have to re-partition the card and format it. I used partition wizard. It's free. After that put it back in your phone and boot in recovery. There wipe external sd and then you can plug it back in to your pc to move the Rom on the card to flash it. That's what I had to do.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] theruizfamily:
Thank you....Im still a newby and did not know that.. I got it all up and running now. Everything seems to be fine. I remembered that Debloater and Titanium back up will stop the updates...

Thanks..
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] 1Xfan:
Sweet N4 :)

Thank you for this!:cool: I am just days away from my new note 4. And I will pass down my unlocked and rooted note 3 :P
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] davekaz:
Funny everything works but twrp does not recognize my sdcard either..I did not use that card when unlocking.. phone sees it fine but when I went to do a backup microsd =0 and unable to choose it.. Can I just reflash it with flashfire?

PS..just formated card in storage setting and all is well... The simple things
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hihila:
Thanks for guide.

I got Kingoroot apk working nuder 5.1.1 with WiF. I flashed N910VVRU2BPA1_N910VVRU2CPD1_FullFirmware.tar.md5 and now no WiFi, try to the Kingoroot and Kingroot both PC versions are not working. My sim doesn't have mobile data, is that any way to get network? :confused::confused:

Thanks. :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
You'll need to try Kingoroot PC.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hihila:
Thanks for quick reply.

I did PC version but didn't work and got root fail many times. :crying:

Is any way to get WiFi working? or other root methods?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
Oh sorry. I misread. Try reflashing the Stock 5.1.1 and doing it again. If that doesn't work, upgrade to MM fully (bootloader and all), and then flash the 5.1.1 firmware that doesn't have the bootloader in it (I forget what it's called, either Full or Stock, but it'll be the one that actually flashes in ODIN without erroring). That'll put you on LP OS and MM bootloader but LP modem. You'll have to flash the hybrid firmware and use Kingoroot again, but I've had success with this process.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hihila:
I really appreciate your help.

Please correct if I'm wrong or misunderstanding~ :p

1. flash retail edition firmware 5.1.1 then root and unlock bootloader

2. flash MM (6.0.1) retail edition firmware then flash the systemonlyN910V-5.1.1??? :confused:

3. flash the hybird firmware, so what is hybird firmware???? :confused:

sorry for those questions :o
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
Not exactly.

Reflash stock 5.1.1 and then go through the process again. See if it roots this time.

If it doesn't root, flash full stock MM, which will upgrade your bootloader and everything. Then, flash the 5.1.1 firmware file (from hsbadr's download thread): the one that doesn't include the bootloader. I forget if it's Stock or Full or something else, but it'll be the one that actually succesffuly flashes in ODIN.

The hybrid firmware is the one in this thread: 5.1.1 OS, 6.0.1 bootloader and modem.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hihila:
I really appreciate it~

However, I couldn't get root on 5.1.1 this time. :( It was working yesterday.

Now I try to flash full MM firmware and no idea what do next :confused:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] zounduser:
Ok, hey guys. So I upgraded from 5.0.1 to PA1 5.1.1, and rooted so I can unlock the bootloader. Then I came across this post, which is what I was after by the way. So after reading the instructions, I must unlock the bootloader on 5.1.1 first. Then move on to 6.0.1 and repeat the steps? Can I just move right to MM 6.0.1 and unlock the bootloader?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
Reread the instructions. There's some special flashing you need to do.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] zounduser:
It says everyone must unlock bootloader on lollipop first. So my question is, after I unlock on lollipop, I can then use that hybrid firmware in the OP to update to Marshmallow. Correct?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hihila:
Please correct me if anything wrong.

If I flashed full stock MM firmware, then flash 5.1.1 Stock Restore (N910VVRU2BPA1) firmware via ODIN from here:

http://xdaforums.com/note-4-verizon/development/firmware-firmware-kernel-modem-recovery-t2942937

so I can have LP OS and MM bootloader but LP modem. I can use WiFi to get KingOroot to unlock MM bootloader.

After unlock MM bootloader, I can flash TWRP odin, and use TWRP to flash CM13 or other custom ROM?

Is it correct steps? or I miss anything?

Thank you. :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] zounduser:
Then use the safe marshmallow firmware/rom. Then from there I can flash whatever 6.0.1 Rom I wish
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
You still need to do the hybrid firmware flash.

---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:51 PM ----------

Correct.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hihila:
Thanks, Zacharee1~

But once I flash hybrid firmware, the WiFi not working again so still cannot root during this process~ :(
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
Use the computer.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hihila:
I did but both Kingroot and Kingoroot PC version didn't work. I may borrow sim card from my friends but most them have nano sim, not micro sim. :mad:

Anyway, I really really appreciate for your help.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gunz.jones:
You can still use a Nanosim if you put it in the slot right; all the way to the right and up. My luck with kingoroot was pretty great on the pc version. Just make sure the screen stays on or it will ruin the attempt.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hihila:
wow, you're so lucky~

I only can use Kingoroot app to root and unlock 5.1.1 Bpa1 though WiFi~

Once I flashed hybrid firmware, the WiFi is gone, I tried Kingroot and phone keeping freeze~ so no hope for Kingroot

KingOroot PC version is stable but just keep getting "Failed root." Mine is always stop around 23%~25% then go to 98% then Failed message.

did you use Kingoroot to unlock 6.0.1 bootloader or just 5.1.1?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gunz.jones:
Both 5.1.1 and 6.0.1 with the pc version. I had a few reboots and retries, but I eventually got it. Just make sure debugging is on and the screen stays on. The apk version kept freezing up my phone or making it not recognize USB when connected.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hihila:
Thank you.

I will try one more time, hope I can get root 6.0.1. :o
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] zounduser:
I got unlocked with twrp, but then got stuck on the verizon red screen. Tried everything and couldn't get booted up. Yes I removed the SD card, and it was after flashing super su update zip. What am I doing wrong? This is frustrating. Lol.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
Factory reset after flashing the hybrid firmware.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] refusedchaos:
These constant reboots when attempting to root are so annoying. Never hand this problem when doing this process for LP.

Been at this for 4 hours already.

EDIT:

I can only get KR too work if it isnt plugged into anything. Right when I plug it into my computer it reboots or doesnt come up on my computer. Can't have it plugged in when doing KR cause it is just reboot city.

KR for computer isnt working for me anymore. Has a X with a wifi sign after it connects to the phone which I assume is that it thinks I dont have an internet connection.

Mind you I just did this flawlessly last week to my spare phone (with the KR for computer). Decided to do it to my main phone today and boy was that a mistake lmao.

EDIT 2: Holy ****. Got it all working and go to adb and it now says device is offline. GOD DAMMIT. I'm going back to LP. This is ****ing ridiculous.

EDIT 3: Made it a little further. Now reboots before I can finish the cmd commands -_-
