BEFORE YOU BEGIN BE PATIENT AND FOLLOW STEP BY STEP AS I MENTIONED OTHERWISE A MISTAKE CAN HARD BRICK YOUR DEVICE COMPLETELY AND YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO USE AGAIN AND I WON'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES OF YOUR DEVICE.

Ok for this method you will require all same files that i gave you earlier.

Firmware file

Odin

PIT FILE

Battery charged 50%

MOST IMPORTANT YOUR DEVICE MUST BE IN COOL TEMPERATURE OR YOU CAN REMOVE BATTERY AND PUT IN REFRIGERATOR FOR 30 TO 60 MINUTES.IF YOUR DEVICE IS HOT DURING PROCESS IT CAN CAUSE EMMC CHIP FAILURE (INTERNAL MEMORY).

1.open odin

2.upload firmware in AP tab.

3.download PIT FILE from link below.

4.in odin you have TAB named "PIT" (right next to the options) click on it and upload pit file along with firmware file.

5. go to options in odin and check on "Nand Erase All" and "Re-partition" dont touch anything else in options.

6.do factory reset in your phone.

7.remove sd card and sim card from device.

8.go to download mode in your phone.

9.connect your phone to pc via usb cable.

9.HIT START IN ODIN.

10.once odin shows PASS DO NOT DISCONNECT USB CABLE let it reboot wait 15 minutes and complete setup now you can disconnect usb cable.

11.go to settings and do factory reset for 1 last time.

HOPEFULLY YOU WILL HAVE FRESH OPERATING SYSTEM WITHOUT ANY ERRORS.

GOOD LUCK AND LET ME KNOW.

PIT FILE FOR N910T TMOBILE NOTE 4.

Hey Mate, just one question In Odin option there is already 2 checked boxes one is Auto Reboot and Other one is F. Reset time should I unchecked them or not?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trex888:
No just leave them as they are checked.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShahX:
Hi I'm unable to connect my phone to pc unfortunately and Now I believe this is hardware problem as when I decided to get my phone unlocked the person who was unlocking couldn't connect either so he'd suggested me that it's a hardware problem and couple of days later I was able to connect to PC till today. so I think I won't be able to perform repartition my phone until and unless I get my connectivity back. Thank You so much for your help anyway. I'd definitely give it a try as soon as I get my connectivity back and will update you.

Thanks

some good news so I decided to pull the battery out after waiting 45 min and tried rebooting

still no luck went to recovery

cleared cache and then factory reset it

now its has now booted!!

---------- Post added at 07:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:16 AM ----------

new update unfortunately even with all of that the error returned :(
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muneebrocks:
hey man can you tell me why step 10 is important?

I tried these steps again however

I can never do this step in particular

10.once odin shows PASS DO NOT DISCONNECT USB CABLE let it reboot wait 15 minutes and complete setup now you can disconnect usb cable.

it gets stuck in samsung powered by android screen

and I have to take out the battery go to recovery delete cache and factory reset and restart it for it to boot
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trex888:
Step 10 is not important i mentioned just because incase your device won't run out of battery during first boot.

And yes you must wipe cache and data factory reset from recovery after flash firmware from odin.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muneebrocks:
yeah then I have done all the steps and if it helps I learnt that if I flash one of the international roms without the data fix my phone runs fine obviously I dont have any signals but as a wifi device it doesnt reboot or cause an issue

if you can assess anything from it
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trex888:
​

Not possible without datafix.

Rom is from other model so some system files are different you must flash datafix to get network working.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muneebrocks:
no I meant that without flashing datafix my phone runs fine

so alot of things that could be a potential cause arent anymore for eg battery rogue app cpu overheating internal memory

so what hardware do you think is left that needs to be physically repaired
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megamorphg:
I have having the same issue as you even after following all the same steps you have. I tried various odinning various stock and after setting things up I get that error... Going to try without the network card because I have a feeling the network card is reporting to tmobile my knox counter 0x3...

Hi, I have the situation posted in the images below.

I can use Odin with my Galaxy A9 2018 without problem, I flashed several times and I did the procedure with file pit too but my phone is always in the same condition.

Have you suggestions for me?

Thanks in advance for your support!

[Amazfit] droidhd:
I have been reading and watching yt videos for Amazfit now for days. I kinda already love it. But then one my friend told me, I should buy Garmins Forerunner 235.

I have done fast investigation for Garmin, but I just didnt found side by side test with Amazfit. From what I found, Harmin doesnt have internal memory, that means I would still need phone for listening music - I would miss that option alot.

Im writing here just cuz I would like to know real differences between those two watches.

1. How is the accuracy of Amazfit pace vs Garmin forerunner 235?

2. I also read about lack of software support for Amazfit (each review was 1 month old or older). Is that still so?

Since Amazfit is based on Android OS, is there a way to put some running couch 5k or some similar app on it? Im pretty new in running and it would be great to have some assistance on a way, when to jog, when to walk. Right now Im using one of those apps on my phone and im connected via bt headphones.

Also some will say, that forerunner cost twice as amazfit. I calculated that Amazfit will all taxes etc ordered from aliexpress would cost me around 160 EUR. Forerunner 235 would cost me around 200 EUR with shipping from Amazon (Im buyer as company on amazon, so im VAT free buyer).

Maybe I will have some more question, but this is it for now.
[Amazfit] matthews1977:
I own the pace and while I kinda like it (And the music thing was my reason for chosing it over Garmin as well), The support has been completely non-existent. And by non-existent I mean I have emailed the developer, sent developer feedback within the app, lodged 6 tickets within the app, lodged a ticket on the web site itself, and emailed support@ twice.

Nobody has ever responded to any of it. That's enough to make me regret my decision. Get the Garmin for it's functionality and support, let the aesthetics go. Pick yourself up a pair of earbuds with internal storage, like the Sonys. Leave the phone at home, problem solved. You don't want to deal with people that won't acknowledge you. Just imagine trying to get warranty support.
[Amazfit] lucas_max:
I had moved from Garmin Vivoactive to Amazfit, and I had been throught some garmin product, 225 235 fenix2 fenix3. If you want to be a serious runner, you should choose Garmin 235. I would give you some note from 2 product:

* Garmin 235:

+ GPS more more accurate than Amazfit and very stable.

+ 5ATM water proof and anti shock (made from polymer)

+ Alot informations for workout, depth and accuracy

+ Alot features for workout, ex: intervals (run/walk), import plan from garmin site, virtual pacer, virtual racer, ...

+ Most sensor are more accurate

+ Connect with external sensor via ANT+ (ex: bike speed sensor, cadence, heart rate sensor...)

- No internal storage for music, can control music from cellphone

- Expensive

- Good brand identified (everyone know garmin is expensive and from us)

- Maybe long support.

* Xiaomi Amazfit

+ Have internal storage for music, can not control music from cellphone

+ Good look

+ Have most workout programme, with needed information

+ Cheaper

- GPS is not stable, work but sometime you got less distance than you run, or the route drift out from the road.

- Cheap brandname

- Can not install more app like a phone thought it run android os (have some but useless, like gallary app, calculation app...)

- IP67 is ok, ceramic bezel is anti-scratch good but easy to crack (like sapphire, maybe)

- Does not work with external sensor via bluetooth (garmin 935 or fenix 5 do)

[Amazfit] droidhd:
Ok, i decided to not buy Amazfit, since there is just 50-60€ difference in price. But in my research I found out Polar M600. Anyone who owns/owned FR235 and M600? Where is the difference here? How more limited M600 is in perspective as runner? Im asking as they are in same price range for me (5-10€ +/-). I know that M600 is AW 2 watch, but lets out that a side so as design and look on both as a runner.

Is there any way to make the TMO G6 update to 10H via OTA? I'm on 10e out of the box but Update Center says I'm fully up to date.

TMobile website even shows 10H update. It's somewhat perplexing.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] david1985:
this device needs root and stock rom help lets make it happen guys
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] xjtwx:
Mine was the same on update center. Use lg bridge. It updated mine to 10h.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Ken C:
Total theory/thinking out loud as to the why the t mobile fastboot lock on this device. Delete this if in the wrong place etc.. Just curious if anybody else thinks that there's money involved with not letting fastboot commands run. After we all buy this phone lg announces other versions of the same device which is bs to me. But, what if they're just waiting out the easy rooters and trying to get them invested in the tmo lg environment with all this cloud stuff, theme selling etc? Forget drm issues which I can understand. But if we achieve root we could theoretically (not a dev just thinking) put another theme engine on the device bypassing lg's little store.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] GrippenTech:
Nah, the European model is unlocked. Much like every other manufacturer they just hate giving users root, it's a security nightmare for them that they'd rather not deal with.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Ken C:
That makes me see the point of it less. The more I use the phone the more I want to do the easy things you can with root. If you allow so many to be rooted wouldn't you introduce in those devices the same security issues you mention? Not arguing just thinking. I can think of tin foil hat reasons you'd do something like that. But I can see (at least for my amount of knowledge) some of the files you'd need to mess with to install viper for one example. Greenify allows to Toggle options you can only do with root but through adb instead. I know that I don't know what's the key but it feels like I'm looking into a house through a mailbox slot.

Edit : I can see that the manufacturers are trying to make rooting unnecessary, but until I either only get one mail app or can uninstall one not just disable it I'm going to want root for that at least If nothing else

[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] GrippenTech:
You're absolutely right. I think the only reason the European model is unlocked is due to EU laws forcing them to do so.

My G6 is H872G firmware and i can't go back to H or E firmware i just tried and ARB kicked me out.

[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] megamanfre:
Yup. Same here. Thought this would have saved me from a TWRP loop, ended up hard bricking my phone.

Is theres any solution for saving my phone from this brick? My pc still shows up the 9008 driver in device manager but theres nothing i can do with my phone
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kerdelgreen767:
this thread needs to be closed or at least label correctly because these files keeping messing up phones and nothing seems to be done about it...

---------- Post added at 04:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:37 PM ----------

same boat as you... have yet to find a fix
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] autoprime:
you were on a bootloader/modem that was antirollback (ARB) v00 when flashing this and it bricked you?

if you were on ARB01 or higher then flashing this would indeed brick you.

I'm wondering what in this thread isnt labeled correctly.. I just double-checked and the ARB version for these files is indeed v00... but if I have missed something I can edit this thread appropriately.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Goombs:
Wish I read comments as well, my phone is also bricked now. I just wanted to go back to stock so I could use the T-mobile device unlock app.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] DeathmonkeyGTX:
This is why you children should RTFM/RTFT before you flash anything. Really y'all should go buy iPhones or at the very least switch to Pixel devices.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] wuhoatu:
The information of Anti-Rollback Version: 00 in RED COLOR may not enough for some people. I do think that you should add a warning that flash different Anti-Rollback Version will hard brick the phone.

THX for the KDZ.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] mannunikhil:
How to identify what is my phone's ARB version? I have Oreo KDZ H87220a_00_0612, how to identify its ARB version?

Is the process same to upgrade from Nougat to Oreo as described?
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] autoprime:
you can get the ARB version by viewing your build.prop and looking for the ARB prop.

or use adb shell... once in adb shell type: getprop ro.lge.swversion_arb

this check only works on stock rom.. a custom rom may change the build.prop and not list the ARB version.

I just looked at the 20a software/firmware... ro.lge.swversion_arb=ARB01

so 20A is ARB01 and cant use the stock rom zip in this thread.. as flashing it would lead to a brick.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] mannunikhil:
Thanks mate for the details. I was able to find that via SVC MENU i'm on Oreo 8.0.0 and it indeed is ARB01 but will keep yours for the record. Cheers.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TimeTomorrow:
DO NOT FLASH THIS without very very carefully understanding ARB.

Bricked my phone.

This thread absolutely needs a more complete warning and explanation.

DO NOT FLASH THIS.

Obviously there is nothing easy, but is there any fix for this?
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] dupsatou:
If it makes you feel any better I did the same thing last night. Boy do I feel foolish.

Is this a definitive brick? There is no coming back from this? The only silver lining if that's true is I was on the edge of leaving this phone anyway. The bootloader flash was an attempt to fix something and just made it worse. Still a bit disheartening. This isn't my first rodeo either which probably made it worse. I was a little careless thinking I knew better.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TimeTomorrow:
This thread has already destroyed a LOT of devices. PLEASE UPDATE INSTRUCTIONS TO CLEARLY CLEARLY state not to follow any of these directions if you do not fully understand ARB and that if you make a mistake you will hard brick. It is common courtesy and decency to post that a hard brick is a very very real risk when posting instructions. Not everyone is familiar with ARB and not even if you read the small print on the faq where it says brick, it still doesn't even say hard brick.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] dupsatou:
I'm honestly not sure why this thread is really still here. At this point could anybody even be running an older ARB and be able to use the data here?
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TimeTomorrow:
99.999999% of people can accomplish nothing with this thread but brick their phone. I already pm'd the op and the forum mod. He reworded the warning to be ever so slightly more prominent, but is still being really coy about the fact that this is a phone brick how to with a tiny not that scary warning at the bottom that has caused thousands of dollars in dead hardware. I have no idea what his problem is. Is it funny to him to make people destroy phones? My brick today was 100% preventable. Was I a little careless? Sure... My bad.. I trusted XDA after so many good experiences.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] autoprime:
if my thread and files didnt have the ARB version tags I could possibly see an issue. I even went above and beyond and include a FAQ to teach people things.

there's not even any mention of ARB versioning in the 10E thread.. but everyone seems focuses on this one because it was "at the top" until just a few days ago when finally someone else finally made a new stock rom.

my thread fully and properly labeled every file it mentioned in the thread. my thread was also made long before ARB01 was a thing. (check the date.. lots of updates have happened since).. and yet I still warned people early on.. and still tagged the files properly.

and this thread is still here because it is a rom for H872 devices that are still on ARB00. Not everyone wants to update their phone and blow a fuse.

I don't see how this comes down to trusting XDA. no one here lied. All of the facts were presented to you.. what the file was.. what it was for.. and what would happen if you flash the file in different situations. Nothing was false.. nothing was meant to mislead or deceive. ALL info was fully presented to the user.. they just had to read it.
[T-Mobile LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TimeTomorrow:
[/COLOR]

This was why my first pm to you was a simple request to update the thread as i realized it was an older thread, and that when you made it things were different. I agree with your point there. That being said people had already been bricking their phones and you failed to update the thread. Two people bricked phones yesterday alone, long after you had been notified. People coming from other platforms are not familiar with ARB. This is my fault, but usually XDA is really good about warnings. For example, this is a proper warning BEFORE the directions with the HARD BRICK potential clearly stated.

if your thread was written like this you would have avoided causing about $2,000 or so in damage.

People coming from various other platforms just don't know that ARB = potential instabrick. When i say I trusted XDA, it's because it's normally done that before telling you what do do anything that can damage your phone is clearly stated. Saying "ARB should match" is not the same as saying "if your ARB does not match you will hard brick your phone and there is no recovering from that". When i flashed a zip in TWRP i figured if I had an ARB issue, i'd just flash back to my twrp backup and be on my way. I had no idea a hard brick was on the table. Even the faq description just isn't scary enough to jump out at you.
