Google like boot logo

If you are a fan of nexus then you will like this one. It is the standard Black screen with Google logo. If you choose the nexus bootanimation, whhich is widely available you will get an exact nexus bootup experience :) :D

It looks like T-Mobile has updated the rom again. Does anyone have an extract which they can upload?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gmolds:
It appears as if sammobile already has it???

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] SimLynks:
Here is an unmodified reupload of the new update straight from sammobile

https://mega.nz/#!5tNjRITJ!tjVgleABN53tmqFwmT9T9mSE_qZ8exIwxpoBVAFNvcw

In the process of updating my encrypted G900T, will post the necessary Odin flashable Protected Partitions once I have extracted them and hopefully not bricked my phone in the update process.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] SurfinMobile77:
Thanks SimLynks, were you able to extract the constituent files and post them (bootloader and modem)?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] SimLynks:
Got the files, finally posting them here now. Please go to my AndroidFileHost SM-G900T folder to grab the flashable files. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=121594

Contains the OTA Update ZIP, and the two Odin Flashable TAR files.

To update your rooted/encrypted G900T to the latest OTA without needing to flash the full ROM update file, download the three files from the link posted above, and follow these steps:

1) Install Chainfire's FlashFire if you dont have it already and grant it root permissions.

Download the OTA Update to YOUR DEVICE ITSELF, Run FlashFire, and Hit the Red "Plus" -> Use either "Flash Firmware package" OR "Flash ZIP or OTA" options, find the OTA ZIP downloaded to your device and let FlashFire do it's thing.

NOTE: DO NOT LET FLASHFIRE UPDATE YOUR BOOTLOADER/MODEM these are the "Protected Partitions" and are Locked while booted into your "Custom" ROM by Samsung after it detects you've been rooted. FlashFire documentation explains this in a bit more detail.

2) Download the TAR files to the computer you will be running Odin from, and Restart your Galaxy S5 in Download Mode (Turn device off -> Hold Power Down + Home + Power)

3) Flash the TAR archives in Odin, standard way is Open Odin, connect phone in download mode (should be detected by Odin) hit the "AP" button and UNCHECK "Auto Reboot" if you want to be able to flash both the Bootloader and the Modem without the Device rebooting automatically after the first flash.

Once you have flashed BOTH the Bootloader and the Modem, go ahead and restart your device, you should now have an updated Kernel (OTA Package in FlashFire, Updated Bootloader/Modem from Odin) and be good to go even with Root/Xposed/Encrypted enabled and TWRP that cannot decrypt the Data partition with Samsung Encryption.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] tsh:
I tried your steps, now have Baseband at TUVS1GPL1 but Build is still TUV1GPE1 and the stagefright scans still show the vulns. Also show "Android security patch level: May 1,2016" Here's what I tried:

1. did flashfire using the OTA method, rebooted. Did not update bootloader. Didn't seem like anything happened.

2. Used Odin to flash modem and bootloader. Rebooted.

3. Tried FlashFire again using the "Flash Firmware" method. Booloader items were greyed out, but left the boot.img item checked. This went through an update process.

Rebooted and checked stagefright, still fails the vulns. Just got a notifications pop-up saying "Device Seurity, threat found. Unauthorized actions have been detected, restart to undo changes." I'm assuming this is knox kicking in somehow. Now just get "Recovery is not SEANDROID enforcing" and boots straight into TWRP ... hmm.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] SimLynks:
TSH, seems like you did this correctly (or at least you have the same build info I have on my own device) only thing that appears different is my TWRP does not throw the SEANDROID Not Enforcing message, BUT thats somewhat irrelevant anyway as from what i've read from the TWRP Devs, that message is just "hidden" with the newest release of TWRP, so the Recovery is not SEANDROID Enforcing, but they remove the error message on the newest builds.

Also can you confirm what version of TWRP your running? Latest build is 3.0.2-2 (and is what im running without the SEANDROID message you have). At one point I had a "custom" build of TWRP with version I think 3.0.2-3 but the dev of that custom build eventually pulled the files as the official 3.0.2-2 had been updated past the custom build notwithstanding the conflicting build numbers.

Anyway as to your Build Number still at GPG2 but Baseband at GPI1 that is EXACTLY the same as my device and from what I can tell the correct build numbers you should be seeing. This OTA did not update the "build" it just updated the Kernel/Modem/Bootloader to GPI1. The important thing to check for the the Kernel build DATE, which should now be "Mon Sep 12". My Security Patch Level is "July 1, 2016" not May 1 so im not sure how that mismatch has happened. Please try to run the OTA from TWRP and let me know what happens. This is the first time i've ever tried to update using the OTA file directly so might have missed a step or forgotten I flashed with FlashFire then to double ensure I updated correctly updated in TWRP also before using Odin to flash the rest.

Additionally, when I first updated to this OTA a few days ago, ran the Zimperium Stagefright testing and passed 100%, However when I reran the test after reading your post, as has become my expectation with Stagefright and Samsung "patches" it now fails again, because Zimperium is constantly updating the test to include the newest found bugs with Stagefright...so the GPI1 Kernel is patched for any Stagefright bugs as-of Sep 12, but the Zimperium people seem to constantly find new bugs with this damn library...So we need to wait for the next OTA patch to only have the Stagefright testing fail again a week later once Zimperium has updated the tests to include the neverending Stagefright bugs.

I really need to run the Stagefright testing on my friend's Nexus which is running Nougat and was the first device in a while i've seen pass 100%, might have same issues there but I have not checked yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] tsh:
Yep, latest TWRP 3.0.2.2... I was able to get the security notification to stop by uninstalling the Samsung security log system app. Still can't pass the stagefright test... I get 12 critical and 45 high vulns testing with Zimperium v5.3

Something definitely not right... Afraid I may just bite the bullet and do a complete wipe and install fresh.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] SimLynks:
Right, I mean a full wipe / restore will definitely fix the issue no doubt, but before you try that you can always do the "full" ROM update using the same method as I previously posted, just replace flashing the OTA from FlashFire, with flashing the full ROM Update and follow all the other steps. Also make sure FlashFire has "Everroot" Checked and I entirely disable flashing "Protected Partiions" in settings, so there is no "unchecking" anything, FlashFire does that automatically.

OTA or Full ROM release, FlashFire still cant safely deal with the "protected partitions", but this is how prior to attempting to use the smaller OTA file, I have been updating my rooted/xposed/encrypted G900T from release to release, the downside to the full update is that after flashing everything you get to wait for the ROM to rebuild the cache, reboot to TWRP and reflash SuperSU and if using Xposed reflash that as well and then again wait for the system to rebuild as Xposed does it's thing on the first boot after install.

I also did not think to consider that my heavily "trimmed" System Apps might have an effect on this, I use Titanium Backup & Greenify immediately after install to outright freeze all the bloatware or Greenify things the system needs to function properly, but I don't want running all the time. When I get a chance Im going to update my friend's G900T using my method and try to figure out this discrepancy between what worked for me, and what is clearly giving you some issues. Until then i'd appreciate any further feedback you can give me so I can revise the process to eliminate any potential trouble spots. Sorry to keep spamming you with all this unnecessary info, but until I can post my own thread on this stuff im just kinda throwing everything I've got here so the info is somewhere.

As for the Stagefright issue, I just reran the Zimperium Stagefright testing again on my up-to-date G900T as well as a Galaxy S3 I'm running the latest nightly Exodus ROM release on (Google Release r68, Android Security Patch Date September 6, 2016, Kernel Build Date Oct 6, 2016) and BOTH devices now fail the Stagefright testing again, after previously passing for about a week or so...This is just how it works with Stagefright unfortunately, they patch it until more bugs are found, rinse repeat.

So no matter what it seems, your gonna fail Stagefright even if on an incredibly recent Build/Kernel. My last test for this needs to be if Nougat also now fails as well, because if so, then it's just another round of the Stagefright party as standard, since they first announced this back in July 2015.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] ShinySide:
You need to flash a firmware package containing a system/system.img. stagefright are system libs. If you want that fix you need to just go ahead and flash the entire firmware. Only thing is tho, stagefright has never been 100% fixed
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] invisiblewave:
I don't believe that is correct, after flashing the complete OTA (without wiping) both my baseband and build are showing GPI1. Baseband is G900T3UVS3GPI1, build is MMB29M.GT900T3UVS3GPI1. Kernel is 3.4.0-7500527. There's no longer any GPG2 reference on my phone.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] goog888:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Reyse:
Hi!

I think your method fails to update the build. FlashFire doesn't patch anything, (build number still show GPG2)

This is what I do:

Restore original boot from my GPG2 clean install (boot is unpatched)

Restore stock recovery (through ODIN)

(2 previous steps avoid status 7 error while applying OTA updates)

Flash OTA update .zip through stock recovery

Reinstall TWRP custom recovery

Reroot Applying superSU.zip method

Wipe Dalvik / cache

Reboot

After 10 minutes everytihng working!

I'm uploaded a screenshot with the results

I think triyng to apply OTA updates with any workaround is possible whenever system partition is reasonably stock, because OTA updates patch files, not replace files

My system was just rooted and 2 battery stats helpers installed. I think with xposed installed the above steps must work. But with other tweaks more complex OTA updates with no stock system will fail
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] invisiblewave:
That's similar to what I did, but without the need to restore data since you flashed the stock recovery without flashing the system by the sound of it. Can you explain exactly which images you flashed for boot & stock recovery? I'm thoroughly confused over what's what, since everybody seems to use different jargon to mean the same thing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Reyse:
Was your phone rooted? AFAIK, We cannot apply OTA update with boot or recovery modified

My phone was rooted I restore stock recovery and boot and apply OTA, And I didn't lose my data or installed apps
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] invisiblewave:
yes, it was rooted, I restored the entire image, ran the update, then re-rooted & restored /data. Do you have a link to the stock recovery/boot image? I'd like to do it the same way as you next time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Reyse:
I extracted both image from the full update from Sammobile

Follow these instructions

Download 7Zip archive manager http://www.7-zip.org/download.html

Download the full image of your phone from SAMMOBILE

For example my previous phone version was G900TUVS1GPG2_G900TTMB1GPG2_TMB.zip

Open that file with 7zip

it contains G900TUVS1GPG2_G900TTMB1GPG2_G900TUVS1GPG2_HOME.tar.md5

double click to extract

these are the files in the archive

aboot.mbn
sbl1.mbn
rpm.mbn
tz.mbn
sdi.mbn
NON-HLOS.bin
boot.img
recovery.img
system.img.ext4
cache.img.ext4
modem.bin

boot.img => stock boot

recovery.img => stock recovery

extract both files

Now for each of them:

- right click => 7ZIP => Add to archive...

- it suggest the same name (irrelevant)

- Choose archive format => tar (very important)

- Press Ok

- Flash with ODIN

(don't reboot, turn off and turn on for each flash to avoid boot phone and mess versions)
