From what i've been reading, some of the guys over on the other thread have found the DEV roms for the honor 8. Lets hope we can find the same and even a nougat build :)
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] BadWolfYe:
I use this application, but i searched and only appear VNS-TL00C01 B190

For VNS-L31C900 major update it's B156

NO b170 :(

Edit; sorry i fail... SEARCHED AGAIN:

2016.08.24 VNS-L31C900 VNS-L31C900B170

It's from august, and OTA 476MB (no it's log, anywhere no it's Android 7)

But "from" LOG; 2016.09.08 VNS-L31C900 VNS-L31C900B319-log

B319? (the changelog in chinese say's "major update of the system)

Im researching... post news after test

Mystery resolved the build -log from B3XX it's for another model... possibly the next version from Huawei of phone (or Mate 8 BUILDS)

This it's the build script:

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] snapdesign:
we need that beta... great find
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] randhackr:
Looks like they are working on the C900 and C432 cust versions.

From VERSION.mbn:

VNS-L31C900B319-log

VNS-L31C432B319-log

Edit: Tested the recovery. While the wifi feature is there it doesn't seem to work. And I've bricked my phone (doesn't let me flash anything) and it doesn't boot. Since it is bootloader is locked and the frp lock is enabled I most likely have to cough up money to use the dc-phoenix tool.

Edit 2: DO NOT FLASH THE UPDATE.app file (at least with a locked bootloader). It bricked my phone really bad. I'm now using dc-phoenix and it is flashing the phone (and I'm out 15€ so be careful). It bypasses the bootloader lock, it now shows unlocked even without inputting any code.

Edit 3: It managed to flash the B150 firmware but I cannot do a factory reset and the phone still hangs at boot. And I cannot flash using erecovery the original firmware (the bootloader shows again as locked). It appears that it is possible to completely bypass the bootloader security using dc-phoenix.

Edit 4: I've restored the C432 oeminfo using a hack, after the dc-phoneix temporally unlocks the bootloader I've unplugged the phone and closed dc-phoenix. With the boot loader still showing up as unlocked I've flashed the oeminfo using fastboot and the phone now properly factory resets and boots. It's still missing a few apps so I will reflash again the phone with the erecovery (and check if it works). Note: the bootloader locks again after rebooting.

Final Edit: The phone now flashes using erecovery. So I think that it is fixed.

Please bear this in mind before flashing beta firmwares with the locked boot loader.

Using the tool bootimg_tools (bootimg_tools_7.8.13.zip) at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2319018 you can split the image and then unpack the ramdisk.

I had to manually unpack the ramdisk since it didn't automatically unpack it. Can't upload it since I'm not near my linux box (where the files are).
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] BadWolfYe:
in all moment say's "android magic not found"
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] randhackr:
Did you use umkbootimg? The image is non standard either way.

If you remove the stuff before the header (till 0xFFF) using an hex editor you can unpack it with other tools.

In the beginning of the file it must read "ANDROID!". The tool you are using is expecting that "magic" to be right at the beginning of the file.

yep... thanks uncompressed sucess :D

king regards!!!!
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] randhackr:
Hey no problem, glad you managed to extract it. Have fun with it :). As a side note this recovery has a battery indicator and does connect to wifi networks.
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] BadWolfYe:
yep... but i need download de update.zip from this recovery, it's possible the optained update.zip Nougat Beta....

No tested, and dont time for test... but it's possible

for install the recovery WITHOUT lost BOOTLOADER UNLOCK... it's neccesary use FASBOOT, in BOOTLOADER MODE, it's neccesary use the command fastboot flash recovery2 recovery2.img

or for boot this recovery in primary mode: fastboot flash recovery recovery2.img

if anyone test and download the package please upload and send, dont flash the package for security reasons... only upload, i download and... post the "news"... after probe if secure for flash, i post the results...

Regards!
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] randhackr:
I've tried that. It fails to download any firmware package. Maybe with another oeminfo that will work?
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] BadWolfYe:
possible with C900 oeminfo?

[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Jasperr91:
Hey,

So today I tried to root my phone, and obviously I failed... Here's what I did:

1. Put the SuperUser files on my external SD card

2. Turned phone off

3. Went into fastboot (power + volume up)

4. On my laptop (the phone was connected through usb cable) I opened cmd and entered "fastboot devices" followed by "fastboot flash recovery CX.. bla bla (file name).

5. CWM Recovery was installed, and is working

Now here's the problem:

When I try to install anything in CWM, I get the the following errors:

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

I tried:

- Reinstalling the Oppo recovery, dit not work

- Formatting and making my external SD card primary, did not work

After some research I found this method to push a (stock)ROM with adb fastboot. But even when I try that, it still says that my internal memory is not accessible. So there's basically nothing on my phone, and that causes the bootloop. My internal SD card seems not to be mounted..

Anybody who knows what to do?

Thanks in advance.

Jasper

-EDIT-

I managed to get my stock firmware running, but the internal SD card is still not mounted correctly. The phone is opperational and I can for example install apps and use them. In the File Manager the internal SD card doesn't show. When I open the camera app it says "No storage available".

Any clue on how to solve this?
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Spike96:
If you'd like to disable Samsung OTAs on your Verizon Note 7, you need Package Disabler Pro version 6.4 or earlier.

You can download version 6.3 from this link: https://onedrive.live.com/?authkey=!AIfDkz0V-XIn4XE&id=E344C7F7F1FE86C3!1923&cid=E344C7F7F1FE86C3

But, you must first purchase the license from the Play Store.

Once you have version 6.4 or earlier up and runnng, disable the following packages.

Maybe system updates SDM? Not sure though.
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] dottat:
What happens after they complete their investigation?
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Spike96:
Not really the point of this thread, but obviously the more information Samsung can find out about these fires, the more information we as consumers have to make a good decision on how to proceed. The Samsung engineers have been unable to replicate these fires in the labs so far, and if you ask me, that's a good sign in telling how low of a chance these phones have of actually catching fire.

Samsung will keep investigating until it has found the root cause. When it does, this thing busts wide open. We'll know exactly how safe the Galaxy Note 7 really is, and a relaunch is even possible.

BUT, I don't want to get into a whole thing about what Samsung may or may not find in it's investigation on this thread. This thread is solely about disabling Samsung OTAs so keeping the phone in a working condition and with max battery life is possible.

[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] teegunn:
I think it is just the two system updates. That is all I ever disabled and I never got an OTA pushed to me. In fact when I go to settings to see if there is an update available, settings force closes. Unless they try to force an update via another way those two should be the only ones needing disabling.
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] dasdman:

Just bought the Package Disable Pro+ Premium.

Strange.

Have disabled the "Security Policy updates" and "Software update", BUT my replaced Note7 does not have the 2 System Updates. processes.

Anyone knows what should I do?

Also I have the GearVR, and have not connected it to my handset after they push down the patch to disable the use with Note7.

Anyone knows which process to disable too, so that I can continue using the GearVR?

Pls help... Thanks!
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] vj950:
Don't you worry about using Gear VR. Its "fixed" by Oclulus. As soon as you'll connect it with VR, it will force you to update. And when you do, your Note 7 will be useless for Gear VR. I recommend freezing anything that says VR in package disabler, except for Gear VR service and see.

BTW, I am in search for apks associated with Gear VR. Specifically, Oculus home, Oculus Appmanager , Oculus system activities and most importantly, Oculus VR drivers. I was never able to use Gear VR because my phone arrived after the Oculus ban. Therefore, I couldn't driver anything from Oculus and I don't have the VR drivers and I can't find them. on internet I know i can't use Oculus for my VR needs, but if I have the drivers, I would like to use the Buttons and Touchpad for 3rd party VR apps such as Cardboard.

If you're able to upload those OLD (read non toxic) APKs I mentioned, it will be greatly appreciated...
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Spike96:
Bump.

Apparently, if you've already downloaded the OTA, you can still stop it from being installed by disabling the four packages in the OP.

Unfortunately, if you've installed the OTA... it might be a lost cause.
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] JAWyered:
Someone please answer this guy because I'm exactly the same. I blocked those two but the notification for the update is still there. If I force close "system updates" all then it goes away for a second... But comes right back.

I just spent a lot of money ordering a new screen as my first recall phone seemed to crack about 3 times very easily. But replaced it myself and it is just like new. Just need to freeze and block any updates until a phone comes out that is acceptable on Verizon.

I'll also note that the internal battery of this phone has a date on it that is pre-first-recall. I suspect Samsung never actually changed the battery of these phones and simply updated it with a green battery icon.

Please assist.

[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] moe2021:
You have to find a older version of package disabler version 6.3 should have additional options you can check to disable. If the update is already downloaded you can get rid of the update notification for at least for 24hrs by doing long pressing the notification and un check everything then a combination of force stop then clearing cache and selecting manage storage.

i bought both package disabler pro's n still couldnt find com.sec.android.soagent or com.samsung.sdm, my system update is ready to install and im wondering how to get rid of the notification or update all together
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Chipwich:
It's rather easy to fix this. Most of you have purchased a disabler app, either package disabler pro or ez disabler from the Play store, therefore you have a valid license but downloaded the gimped recently updated version from the play store. Search Google or xda to find a safe apk of the previous release of the disabler apk. Uninstall version downloaded from the play store and install old version (turn off auto updates in Play store before installing apk). Voila, you have a non-gimped disabler app and are now able to see those missing packages.
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Spike96:
You need Package Disabler Pro version 6.4 or earlier.

It sounds like you have the latest version downloaded, version 6.6. Try to find it on the web somewhere. If you can't find it, I'll try to upload it later when I have some time.

Post a link on this thread if you find it.
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] JAWyered:
That did the trick. Thanks a bunch. What was changed in the app update that killed the functionality of Package Disabler?
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Spike96:
It's probable that Samsung contacted the devs of Package Disabler Pro to cripple its OTA disabling function. They probably wanted to push the update to as many Note 7 owners as they could.

Could you post the link of where you found the earlier app version for others who may be looking for it?
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] JAWyered:
I wouldn't want to post the link but it was first on the list of a Google "package disabler pro apk" search. It was filled with click adds, pop ups, and other traps, but if you get rid of it and through the challenges, the download is legit.

Very weird issue, but Samsung might really be that corrosive. I'd be fine with allowing Samsung to exchange my phone if they offered me a fair deal. In my case, I donate old phones to family, friends, or anyone who needs one rather than let it go wasted on a shelf somewhere. I had a Note 5. Gave it away after getting the Note 7, paid full retail price. Now they are saying my only realistic option is for them to give a couple hundred dollars back and give me the same phone I already had. I'd accept all of my money back and a replacement Note 5, but not that. I wouldn't pay retail for an S7, Pixel, or any other phone on Verizon's market right now. I like some phones internationally, but they don't work on Verizon. So until a phone that is competitive comes out, or Samsung offers me a fair deal, I'll make this work. Wish I was rooted though. (End Rant)
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] serusaert:
i don't see the package com.sec.android.soagent but i have the others disabled.

i have not seen the update so far.

is the missing package because i have version 6.6 of package disabler pro?

should i try to find the 6.4 version and install it?

*** UPDATE ***

yes - it would appear that samsung pressured the developers into removing com.sec.android.soagent from the play store version of the package disabler. i removed it, side-loaded version 6.3 from the link above, and viola, the soagent package is there to be disabled.

THANKS!!!

I just did a factory reset n haven't seen it, I also have not logged into the Verizon macfee protection, if I'm not mistaken I think it said something about updates in security from Verizon n I decided to not approve that, I also started the phone as brand new, I haven't seen a update yet n also haven't been ( logged on) in any of the verzion bloatware apps , n I haven't been to system update either, I think I'm good for now...... ?
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Spike96:
OP updated to reflect full instructions.

It is probable that by now, all Note 7 owners have either taken the update or already blocked it.

Us Note 7 owners with 100% battery life are now a part of a rare breed.

I wonder how much my Note 7 would resell for, considering how it's currently the greatest phone on Earth and how impossible it is to find. Also possible nobody would want an explosion risk, although it is exceedingly unlikely.

Just thinking aloud.
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] LaughinBones:
So once you successfully block the update, can you turn auto updates back on in the Play Store?
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] flanky79:
argh... there is a new update and i accidentally updated to V7.0.

I tried to use the v6.3 apks posted, but it seems that it can't activate...

any "cracked" versions or ways to get past this? (i paid/purchased the Pro+ version through play store already)

i already received the pop-up prompt to ask me to download the update (manage to click "later")

please help...

or what is the best "original" rooted firmware I can flash?

(I am fine with Samsung default firmware features as is, and I play pokemon go, so not sure if the rooted phones can work)

TQVM

Thanks!
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Spike96:
No. Just keep off auto-update for one app: Package Disabler Pro.

If you turn auto update back on, Package Disabler Pro will get updated, which will enable OTA services again, and you will be forced to take the update that limits battery life to 60%. You don't want that. Keep auto update off for Package Disabler Pro.

[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Spike96:
For me, I just go to the "Package Disabler Pro" page in the Play Store. Once you are on the app's page, there is a menu button (the three little dots) in the top right corner next to the search icon. Click on menu, and you'll see an option to disable auto-update.

[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Spike96:
Just wanted to provide an update for you guys, due to the recent headlines the Note 7 has been getting:

The update that Samsung is pushing out to all in the US on Dec 19 will NOT affect your phone for two reasons.

1. You have all used "Package Disabler Pro" to disable OTAs pushed by Samsung.

Therefore, the only way Samsung can mess with your phone is by getting Verizon to block IMEIs. In this worst case scenario, mobile data would be cut off to your Note 7, but everything else would work.

BUT, this probably won't happen (at least for a few months) because of #2 below.

2. Verizon REFUSES to push Samsung's OTA that would cripple your Note 7's ability to charge (Source: https://techcrunch.com/2016/12/09/verizon-note-7/). SO, even if you have not utilized "Package Disabler Pro" to stop any OTAs, Verizon won't push the OTA anyway.

To sum up:

If you have a Verizon Note 7 WITHOUT "Package Disabler Pro", you likely are limited to 60% charge but this cap won't be reduced any further... For now...

If you have a Verizon Note 7 WITH "Package Disabler Pro", you are in the best boat you can possibly be. You have 100% charge capacity, Verizon is fighting for you, and even if Samsung pushes an OTA you will be safe. THE ONLY SCENARIO that would limit your phone's capability is if Verizon blocks IMEIs. This would cut off mobile data to your device. HOWEVER, Wifi, Bluetooth, and all other capabilities would still work.

Again, enjoy your illegal Note 7.
