[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] Jan Philipp:
Don't know what you did.

Open FirmwareFinder, normally it'll recognize your build. In your case EVA-L09C25. If not set the model manually.

Then tap the refresh button and the app will show all builds.

Tap on the first one (EVA-L09C25B320) and ckeck firmware access.

A pop-up will appear with following text: "Firmware approved for installation Models ... . So, there's your latest build (with Nougat, EMUI 5).

For further information about FirmwareFinder and how to use it please check the forum or ask google.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] GambitK:
Here is what I did:

In firmware finder indeed it recognized my phone as EVA-L09C25.

1) Click the refresh button.

2) First two firmwares said not approved for installation.

3) 3rd on the list: Firmware aproved for installation Models for Installation: VIE-L09C25B320. Shouldn't be EVA-L09?

4) Tried downloading with firmware finder proxy, download stops at 74%, and closes updater.

5) Tried downloading the zip file and extracting the UPDATE.APP and copied it to the root of the SD Card in the dload folder.

6) Started the update on reboot it says that the firmware is not compatible.

What else should I try?
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] Jan Philipp:
Well, I've seen what you mean. Very strange. I can only assume that it's caused by C25. It's not even listed in the cust list here https://www.huaweiblog.de/firmware-update-was-bedeutet-cust-emui-und-co/ (german).

Sorry, that I don't know more.

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bordo_Bereli51:
Just flash the recovery, and download then the supersu flash zip file and flash it through recovery, you dont need to flash root via odin. BTW it sounds like your USB-Cable is fault. Try another one. If its still not working then try to use the usb-port at the backside of your computer.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtccomputec@gmail.com:
Same like me

I have the same Phone like voot566 from tmobile but updated to the latest stock firmware, now I want to root my phone using CF -AUto-root but failed on the same way like voot566 I downloaded the CF Auto Root according to my stock firmware (N915TUVS2DQG1) but failed when flashing with odin. I found here on XDA this tread and I'm looking for answer as well.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bordo_Bereli51:
As said, flash recovery and try it this way

http://www.androidinfotech.com/2016/12/install-twrp-samsung-note-edge-n915t-t-mobile-marshmallow.html

Or when odin does not want to flash, maybe you need to install samsung kies 3 once, as it will install the drivers too. After installation, start kies 3 and connect your phone via usb-cable to your computer and let kies 3 recognize your phone. When its recognizing your phone then close kies 3 and open odin and try to flash cf-autoroot or recovery

Thanks for replying

Thanks for replying, I got root it my phone but curious I just this time I changed the Odin version from the latest to v1.85 and instead of CF-auto root I flash TWRP 3.1.0 without problems, my observation on this it is odin.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JackDCalloway:
Hey Folks,

So I got this Z2, running Existenz MM 5.6.5.

Today I installed the AccuWeather App via Google Playstore. A moment later the System UI FCed, but that's not really new, happens from time to time. But now the screen stays black. I can see the backlight, but the screen is still black. Tried the reset button under the left hatch. It's booting, but after all, black screen.

Got into recovery, backed everything up, recovered the backup - hoped to kick the faulty software back in line. Didn't work, think it was a naive idea.

So I want to keep all that SMS stuff and also the messenger stuff - if there's any chance.

Right now I'm downloading the .291 FTF and the 6.5.6 EXISTENZ Update.

So, I just tried to call the Z2, the screen wakes up, but the System UI keeps crashing.

Any suggestions for solving this problem are welcome, thanks a lot!
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raminta:
I think you can do nothing about systemui

But for SMS back up your rom

Then reflash Existenz rom and restore messaging app data using titanium backup app(restore all things that related to SMS)

It may works
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JackDCalloway:
So reflashing the the Existenz ROM may be the only Option left? OK.

So, backing everything up, then flashing Existenz (the latest update didn't do the trick), all it's updates and then, recovering a few apps, using the TWRP-Backup as a source? Nice Plan, gonna give that a try.

Thanks for your thoughts raminta.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raminta:
i meant use clean installationthere is no need to flash all updates just flash v5.0.1 and then v5.6.5 and you will be fine

then use titanim backup

[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Guides, News, & Discussion] zamzenos:
IMPORTANT - READ THIS FIRST:

The Note FE comes with dm-verity check and forced encryption enabled. You will need to remove this extra layer of security for root access. To disable dm-verity and forced encryption you must install TWRP recovery first on your Note FE. Note that disabling forced encryption and dm-verity requires a factory reset from TWRP recovery, so you should backup your data (internal storage) before you begin.

The next stage then will be to root the device by flashing the SuperSU zip via TWRP recovery. SU will also ensure that dm-verity and forced encryption remains disabled. Bear in mind, however, that a factory reset will restore them again.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED:

Download Odin and drivers here: https://build.nethunter.com/samsung-tools/

Download TWRP for Note 7 Exynos: there are two versions: Korean and International:

Korean version: https://dl.twrp.me/graceltekor/

International: https://dl.twrp.me/gracelte/

Download the latest version of SuperSu here: https://download.chainfire.eu/1021/SuperSU/SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.zip?retrieve_file=1

You should also download the stock firmware appropriate to your version of Note FE, just in case. Variants S & L can be found on Sammobile, and variant K is available here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634784008

ROOTING YOUR NOTE FE:

Read these instructions through carefully before you begin.

(1) Install TWRP Recovery on your Note FE via Odin.

(2) Boot your Note FE into TWRP recovery as follows:

(a) First switch off your device.

(b) Now Press and hold “Home + Power + Volume Up” buttons for a few seconds and as soon as you see your device’s logo on-screen, release the three buttons altogether. Your device will boot into TWRP recovery.

(3) Upon booting into TWRP recovery for the first time, you’ll get a prompt to allow system modifications. You should swipe right to allow this.

(4) On the TWRP main menu, select WIPE then select “Format Data”. You will need to type yes in order to proceed. This will clean wipe the entire internal storage on your Note FE (make sure you have backed-up your important files safe to restore later).

(5) Still in TWRP recovery, you should now connect your Note FE to the PC. (TWRP supports MTP connection so you’ll be able transfer files to the device.) Wait until your Note FE appears on your PC desktop (may take a while first time). You can now transfer the SuperSU zip to your Note FE.

(6) Go back to the TWRP main menu and select “Install” this time. Now you can flash the SuperSU zip.

(7) Reboot your Note FE.

You should now be rooted. Test using an appropriate app.

It would be helpful to others if you reported your experience and the outcome here.

Good luck.

Still in bootloop?
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Guides, News, & Discussion] zamzenos:
Two possibilities why it's not working for you:

Try flashing TWRP with USB debugging off.

Are you placing the TWRP file in the right slot (AP) in Odin?

The last one is obvious, but it's strange that TWRP doesn't open for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Guides, News, & Discussion] zamzenos:
Well, it works. But there may be minor problems. If we get enough reports we should be able to isolate these and see what can be done to correct them.

These are early days with FE so there will be little personal data on them yet. So this is a good time for some experimentation, especially as flashing stock is known to be successful.
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Guides, News, & Discussion] iraqgsm:
I will try with USB debugging and I did place it in the AP slot

---------- Post added at 07:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:13 PM ----------

still no go with usb bugging off,

a question that is the only twrp version that is working for you now right
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Guides, News, & Discussion] zamzenos:
I used "twrp-3.1.1-0-gracelte.img.tar".

Are you formatting data? If you are, try flashing without allowing modifications and without formatting data. You won't be able to make use of TWRP in that mode, but try it and see what happens.

One last try: If the above fails, try entering stock recovery after you flash the stock firmware.

Finally, I have the K variant. It might be that the problem occurs because you have a different variant.

You could get the TWRP app (check the TWRP site). There is a specific version for korean telecoms (graceltekor). I've dloaded it and will give it a try tomorrow. But you should test the above suggestions first.
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Guides, News, & Discussion] zamzenos:
Only link I had: http://fixedfirmware.blogspot.ie/2017/07/samsung-galaxy-note-7-fe-sm-n935skl.html.

Google for it otherwise. But you may be able to use one of the other variants. There was a discussion here. Not sure of the outcome, though.

Hy,

i am new here, i´m from germany and since yesterday i call a Note FE (SM-N935K) my own.

I´m trying desperately to install TWRP for root installation, it worked so far but always when i enter TWRP and then restart to system, there is a bootloop at the white Samsung screen.

When i get back to TWRP and look at the file manager, ALL data is erased!!!

After flashing the Stock rom everything works fine.

How can i solve the problem with the erased data?

Regards

Your not installing properly.

Your data is not erased twrp just cant see it because you didnt decrypt. If it was erased then when you go back to stock it would still be gone.

Pay you can use rooted using magisk hide.

About to pull the trigger on an FE and want to root to get rid of bloat as well as be able to update to Oreo before next Summer. HOWEVER, I have read that rooting will break Android Pay, which I use a lot.

Guys,

If you only need root for your Note FE (which will be my case) you're probably able to do it via Magisk

I've managed to root my "restored-stock" S7 edge this way so it should work for the FE the same way.
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Guides, News, & Discussion] RicePlay33:
Magisk Failed.

Well guys,

I've tried rooting by patching boot.img via Magisk and.. it failed.

Caused the bootloader to show in red "Custom Binary has been blocked due to remaining installation balance"

I've actually tried it directly out of the box. I had the phone running like 10mins and done the first setup procedure without SIM card inserted.

And that I think is part of the problem here. I think this message means that the phone waits for something to be done (or elasped ?) before allowing you to flash a custom binary.. :confused:

Kinda weird.. it's like the "7 days OEM Unlock toggle" bu****it of the Note 8... Thankfully, the fail hasn't triggered my Samsung Knox-****, I'm still 0x0 so it's fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Guides, News, & Discussion] RicePlay33:
UPDATE!

We still don't know if my theory is right but it seems like.

[MENTION=7303963]benyou54[/MENTION] Note FE had the line "RMM State: Prenormal" in his DL mode, but it disappeared when he checked 2 days ago ! (See here)

Maybe that means he can now flash a custom binary ? If it's the case that would likely means that you just basically need to wait some time for some sort of "auto-activation", "validation" or something like that...

To confirm this, I've flashed my Note FE with the stock ROM and with my SIM card inserted. I've activated Samsung Secure Folder, Samsung Pass, updated every Galaxy Apps, logged and registered my device into Samsung Members, setup iris scanner, fingerprints literally everything I could activate or setup or whatever. If my theory is right, next week, this RMM line should disappears and hopefully I will be able to flash TWRP on this brick !

Bottom of the line, this is the most ****ed up procedure to install TWRP i've ever seen... Like, seriously Samsung ?! That's completely unnecessary and frustrating! We OWN our phones !!

Note Fan Edition - Root Method

Alright, I've managed to get a bit farther but I'm quite actually mad at myself I will explain why :

First, this RMM State: Prenormal thing is what is preventing us from flashing our phones. That's confirmed.

I've waited 7 days (Never reboot! You have to keep your phone running for 168 hours) and it has indeed dissapered... I've been able to flash TWRP no prob.

BUT, there's always something that's gonna ruin everything....

When I saw that this line was gone, I flashed TWRP but did some stupid moves during disabling dm-verity and ended up flashing stock because I couldn't boot..

Aaaaaand we go again... RMM State is back and I can't flash this stupid stuff...

Grr.. I hate Samsung soo much for this...

N-B: This **** isn't related to the bootloader as I've never re-flashed it. It's more likely linked to the boot.img.
