[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Could somebody please post instructions, or info on how I can update my rooted SM-T210r currently running 4.1.2 to 4.4.2 or maybe even something newer . . I would like to do this without losing Root, TWRP, or any of my data, if that is in any way possible . . OTA methods would be prefered, Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vkmaxx:
UP? Same scenario only with T211.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
Do you want stock 4.4.2 or a modded 4.4.2? I've got a modded stock ROM you can check out. (I'm still trying different things so I haven't officially released the ROM, but would love a tester to give me feedback.) To first upgrade to stock 4.4.2 go to SamMobile website and download the latest firmware for the device. (I believe it is Canadian.) Then flash thru Odin. Then you will have to reflash TWRP. Boot into TWRP and make a backup. After your backup is complete it should ask you if you want to root the device.(Flashing new firmware you will lose root.) After that If you would like to see what my modded ROM looks like pm me.

Boot into twrp by pressing VOL_UP+VOL_DOWN along with POWER_KEY and release the power key once the lenovo logo shows up.

Then flash any new rom.

[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtber:
I was on CM13 for a while, but couldn't update nightlies because I got Error 7 (assert.... trustzone blabla) when I tried to flash in TWRP 3.0.0

Then I read somewhere I had to flash OOS3.0... then TWRP 3.0.2 and then I should be able to flash CM13 incl. updates again.

Well.. that did not really happen. I'm not sure if I disabled 'replace recovery' or something, but when I flashed OOS3.0 I wasn't able to get into TWRP anymore and the weirdest thing that OOS3.0 was very much broken. It was not complete, almost nothing was working, the homebutton didn't do anything, no apps worked, I didnt have a quick settings bar above my status bar, etc. etc.

When I sideload TWRP via fastboot I can't restore my NANdroid unfortunately.

What should I do, preferably without full wiping, but I already got used to the idea of performing a full wipe :eek:

My goal is to get back to CM13, as this is such a improvement over OOS

Flash TZ update v3 to fix TZ mismatch/error 7

Flashed TZ update v3, didnt help... still getting error 7 when I try to flash the latest CM13 nightly.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pitrus-:
Then you probably missed something down the line/earlier CM13 zip that automatically updated firmwares/TZ to the latest. In that case, flashing/restoring phone to OOS 3.0.2, unlocking and flashing TWRP 3.0.2-2 and then flashing CM13 should fix it, a bit cumbersome but probably the simplest way.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtber:
OK i got it working *fingers crossed*

I followed the steps in the second post of this thread

It worked, and I'm guessing that the problem was that I didn't do a full wipe before I tried to flash OOS. Anyway, its ok now.

I did have a small problem when I tried to flash the OOS camera after CM, after that I was stuck in the Cyanogen startup animation, so did the whole full wipe-flash 'help' thing-flash CM13... and it seems to work now. Hope I'm now able to update nightlies without having to wipe or anything...

thanks for the tips [MENTION=4244522]pitrus-[/MENTION]

I got my Tilt flashed with a nice custom rom and I use it on AT&T.

I was evenable to get the new PPC Realplayer beta (1.1 or 2.X depending on how you look at it) working mostly fine instead of the default AT&T Real Player.

But damned if I can figure out how to get it to go full screen. The option is there, it just doesn't actually go Full screen when I play AT&T cellular videos.

Anyone ever figure this out, or got a link to where it's figured out? I've been through many pages about this regarding the original TyTN but couldn't, or didn't find information how to get full screen up.

However, if anyone ever read how to get the codecs off an AT&T BlackJack, for use in Windows Media Player on the Kaiser, that would be pretty sweet too since I've heard Windows Media Player in WM6 has no problems going full screen.

I understand this information might exist somewhere in the forums or out there, but it's not always obvious how to phrase a good search criteria for this stuff.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GWelker62:
If your refering to the RealPlayer Ver 1.00 from HTC, AFAIK it doesn't do full screen. The bit rate is turned down so much on those videos they look like crap the way they are now. I can't imagine them at full screen.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GuestK0050:
Yes I realize the request is kind of anal.

I have tried the original AT&T Real PLayer (version 1?), and I downloaded hte 1.1 Beta from Real player (that says it's actually 2.x).

I was hoping that there would be a way to get the 1.1 Beta from the RealPlayer website to go full screen. The option is there, it just doesn't do anything.

http://bbs.romup.com/forum.php?mod=v...extra=page=1

This post said the Their method is applicable to all of the Samsung machine locks BL.

They are already do this,and will not share the way..

It is said that ,the G935A,G935T,G935P,G935V cross bootloader flash Chinese Version ,and support ALL band(gam,cdma,wcdma ,tdscdma,lte) ,all carrier,all

country..

And I get a S7 EDGE G935V, It unlock and flashed, following the picture

I think there are three possible ways to achieve this effect.

1.、use odin flash the eng kernel,and root. then use Z3X or other box to change the Bootloader Recognized identifier

2、Making a special data line, to achieve strong brush the other version of the firmware. (The other phone use this way..)

3、Modify other editions Samsung firmware identifier,To achieve the bypass bootloader to flash the other version.

There are many experts in the forum, I'm sure you'll find interesting

I hope someone can share the way when he successful

Ignore my bad English...

So does this unlock the bootloader or just allow the flashing of other carrier ROMs?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] ykjae:
I believe the Chinese bootloader would be flashed to our phones which is unlocked. So our bootloader would be unlocked. It doesn't appear to be right though. Someone would have to look into it.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Maltego:
I have translated some links to posts that would affect the US variants. There were many Verizon ROMs and firmwares there, so they are working on unlocking stuff more than we are by the looks of it. Anyways, note that these links are directly translated and may seem choppy. Also, the term "brush" is used a LOT, not sure if it's a bad translation of a certain word or? Also note that I don't think any of these links are about the original post given to us by OP. I am posting to let you decide though.

Link 1: here

Link 2: here

Possibly more links to come, but that's all for now. The original link given by OP may be to a deleted post? Not sure though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] ykjae:
I do not know why but those links will not load on my phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] dajmanjt:
Yea this brush method sounds like some sort of ODIN hack that lets a user flash individual parts into a s7, like mix and match. So you could get a unlocked boot-loader with a Verizon operating system. Problem is, there really is no way to tell how that method truly functions or how to do the process yourself. Guess we wait and see if any further details emerge.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Maltego:
So one of these posts is what the OP was talking about? Could you clarify? Possibly give instructions you dig out?

I've been surfing this site, I haven't seen much else about a bootloader, but then again I don't speak the language and the search is broken. So 2 strikes there...

EDIT: "brush" means flash. So "brushing" a ROM is flashing a new ROM. Direct translation man, not very good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Syn Ack:
This seems to be the best guess.

A Youtube video or instructions or guide would be nice. With files. Even if it is in Chinese.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] ykjae:
I just posted this in the tmobile forum hopefully someone will check it out
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] WingedCow:
Brush in chinese is the term we use for flashing, we just call it brushing.

I'll roughly translate this for you guys.

First: All S7/E can be flashed, to other version regardless of company and version, removing the worries for locked/unlocked bootloader.

Second: The rom files, AP BL and CP doesnt differentiate between networks, the important part is the CSC file, which contains the sales_code. Official cache.img.ext4 and different roms can be mixed. But every time you change the sales_code, ROM(?) data will be rewritten, so carrier lock will be reactivated.

Third: Different carrier's rom has different partition size, so when flashing with ODIN you have to enable repartition

Fourth: You can flash Verizon BL with P(No idea which carrier this is) Baseband, ATT's System, and Verizon's Cache etc etc. as an example. But the file you're flashing into the specific partition must be smaller than the partition size, or you'll encounter a SIZE ERROR.

Fifth: Before Flashing, it's best to have your phone unlocked, especially ATT and Tmobile. ATT requires a code, TMobile uses an app to unlock after company unlocks it for you.

Sixth: Different network for different carriers(This part isnt important for us since it lists what's compatible with chinese companies)

So basically, he's saying that as long as you modify the CSC file properly, you can flash any bootloader and mix and match.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] cadcamaro:
I actually gave my brother my S7E, after flashing the 935U firmware as he is on AT&T. From what I am seeing, would this allow me to flash the OS of the 935U with another bootloader so he can have all LTE bands? Currently I noticed he only gets H+ for data, but I haven't checked the bands available as he lives halfway across the country. If this means he can get full on LTE with all bands this is great as he is visiting in a few weeks so I can set up his phone properly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Maltego:
But they were talking bootloader as well, which if you can cross a Chinese bootloader into a Verizon phone, the bootloader can be unlocked with the phone still believing it's pure Verizon and functioning like one. It's being claimed to be more about carrier codes and what not. I think it's a cool topic, and hope this crossing comes in handy soon...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] ykjae:
Yes I would definitely like if more devs would look into this

From what I gather, the Chinese G9350 bootloader can be unlocked with CROM. The US versions do not have the ability to use CROM. I think they are saying you can take a Chinese phone and flash it to use on US networks. I DO NOT believe we have the ability to flash the Chinese bootloader and unlock with CROM.

I honestly hope I'm wrong, but I don't think we'll be that lucky.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] ykjae:
You sound correct.. Unless it's a chance that someone unlocks the bootloader and we flash the already modified bootloader onto the US variant somehow which doesn't seem possible but I'm not a developer.

China seems to always be the cottage of the world, even hard to be a ROM, there are people who pirate! Research throughout the month of April 1st, test, during a dead brush S7 EDGE.

I would start by flashing only the Chinese FW and not the BL and other stuff but still use engboot , using a similar process to the way you would flash the 930U/935U ROM .

It's also recommended that you start from the U ROM while you're at it if you're really going to test this .
