[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Irnes:
Hey ppl of the internet!

Just wanted to hear if someone had any idea how I could update my amazon fire tv to the latest version.

I have an echo dot, which I wanted to pair with my fire tv so I can control it via the echo dot. But as I do not live on one of the countries which amazon supports (Denmark) It wont let me update to the latest released version, which they have released for fire tv to be able to sync up with the echo dot. I have tried to change my country in amazon account to an uk, de and us adress, but it still does not want to update to Latest Software Version: Fire OS 5.2.4.2 (574263120)

I am still stuck on Software Version: Fire OS 5.2.4.1 (573210720)
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michajin:
You have a fire tv1 or fire tv2?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Irnes:
How do I check if I get the tv1 or 2?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michajin:
IF you have a sd slot in the back it is a ftv2, if it has a optical port it is a ftv1

---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 AM ----------

The software you are on, Version 5.2.4.1 (Build 573210720) is for the fire TV1 and you have the newest software for it.

Amazon Fire TV (1st Generation)

Latest Software Version: Fire OS 5.2.4.1 (573210720)
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Irnes:
So I cant use echo dot with tv1 or what?
[Moto Z Force Questions & Answers] blynkofaneye:
Anybody ever have this happen to your MZF? Happens once every few days, and usually goes away after a few shakes. A few times I hard-rebooted the phone, and the display was still messed up in Recovery mode; the top half of the screen was affected but not the bottom. I could actually see the rows of static being drawn on the screen in big chunks. I can't remember if it was happening before the 7.1.1 update, but I think it was. Thinking it might be a faulty connection?
[Moto Z Force Questions & Answers] PenguinOfBane:
My phone did that around that time. It went away, but it's back now. Not only is it back for me, but it won't actually reboot. I can hear the splash screen (as if it was rebooting) however, the screen doesn't change. Still stuck with those crazy lines.
[Moto Z Force Questions & Answers] edneum2:
I had this happen... probably about 3 separate times. Each time there would be moments (either after tapping it, squeezing it, rebooting it) that it would flash back to a normal screen, then after about an hour it seemed to stay "fixed" probably for a month or two. The 3rd time it happened in the morning and hadn't resolved by the time I left work and stayed that way as I took it into Verizon. The Verizon guy took care of ordering the factory replacement at 7:30pm and it arrived literally the next morning. The crazy thing was that after I left Verizon it resolved and stayed "fixed" until I wiped it and sent it back in to Verizon, so I was able to copy and duplicate everything to the replacement phone.

While the screen looked like that, all the functions remaining intact, i.e. I could guess where I should tap and the sounds occurred that should have. I even attached my projector mod and the projector would display everything correctly even as the phone display was not.

I have not had the issue reoccur on my replacement phone.
[Moto Z Force Questions & Answers] blynkofaneye:
Sounds like exactly the issues I had, functions intact even though the screen was janky. Luckily was still in warranty period from Moto so got a new one sent to me. (Moto customer service is the ABSOLUTE WORST by the way). New phone is working fine... so far.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] alejandro8807:
Doubt about ROM

Dear, I would like to know if this ROM has released the band of 900 Mghz of the 3G connection since in my country it only works for that frequency.

Waiting for reply thanks
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
One way to find out is to install and check.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mnbb0628:
Can I dirty-flash this over the N910T3UVS3EQE2 version of this same ROM?

TIA.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tarikzer:
Odex virsion i try to flash 4 times but not flashing .. with recovery twrp ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Yes, you can.

What is the error you are getting?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] noomiij:
Hi, Will it work on N910T2? Thanks
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
I think it won't , as you don't have a MM bootloader.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] will5:
Will try today. Thanks.

Is your phone alive [MENTION=4342818]pvsgh[/MENTION] ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] will5:
Got a warning about "failed to mount platform/msm_sdcc device or resource busy. But flashed fine and seems to work fine.

Using deodex debloated.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
No, its completely dead :mad:

I haven't tested these, but wanted to create this last ROM before I move to a different phone. Using LG stylo 2 plus as temporary phone for now.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] will5:
The warning shows when flashing rom zip, maybe something wrong in the updater script, but works fine, so not sure if it s important.

Too bad you cant fix your phone, even the freezer method didnt worked?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Error details? Also verify the MD5 hash for the file on your phone.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mnbb0628:
So I dirty-flashed over N910T3UVS3EQE2, but still I retained the N910T3UVS3EQE2 baseband. I fixed it by running the CP update via Odin, flashed the kernel, and flashed the ROM (deodexed) again. Worked like a charm. Also fixed the previously annoying mystery of losing Wifi intermittently.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] brc6985:
I have stock PE3 firmware running on my N910T2 with no issues, and have installed other stock TMO firmware on it as well, so I'd say you probably can run this if you flash BL/modem first.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
If you are running PE3 already, you can just try dirty flashing this. Make sure to take a backup in TWRP first just to be on safe side.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pmunin:
Hi guys, I installed few days ago latest official update from T-mobile and my phone started lagging like crazy, even during the boot - that Samsung Note 4 logo screen holds for at least 2 minutes before it changes to T-mobile logo - it never was that bad. And after the boot finally finishes it takes forever to open any app - wiping dalvik cache or even factory reset didn't help so I was looking for another rom close to the official, but debloated - that's why I'm trying your rom. I'm total noob in it, so I apologize for stupid questions:

1) What is the best way to install it? Just install from zip of sd card using twrp?

2) You mentioned dirty flash - how to do clean/wiping flash?

3) Where can I download MM bootloader?

Thanks in advance!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Just follow the instructions in post#1, you don't need to install MM bootloader as you are already got one by installing the latest update from t-mobile.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pmunin:
Just as an update: Installed it yesterday (wiping everything before that). Today morning during the call phone started rebooting and can never boot since then - no error message, it just displays Samsung logo forever, heating up the phone to 80 C. Clearing cache didn't help. Tried to boot it with different batteries, with no SIM, no SD card - nothing helps. Not sure what's the reason - maybe internal storage failure? is there any way to check&format internal storage for bad sectors?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] will5:
Probably emmc went bad. After every update phone gets lots of heat. And seems like the emmc chip gets all the heat. I recommend doing the updates on a cold place and without the battery cover.

During boot there is no thermal protection at all, phone can reach 100C easily. Probably samsung fault.

I saw emmc replacement videos for note 1, 2 and 3, but not on note 4. Dont know why.

There are some recovery threads you can try.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pmunin:
Another update: I tried to install latest official stock (provided here https://xdaforums.com/note-4-tmobile/development/roms-10-29-2014-t2922618) using ODIN - even though there was no installation error - it didn't help - phone still could not boot to andoid UI and was stuck on T-Mobile logo.

Then I tried to do the same thing but with checked flag "Re-Partition" in Odin - but it failed right after start, because of the error Odin showed : "Can't open the specified file. (Line: 1834)".

Finally what i did - I installed Samsung Smart Switch, and using it's Emergency Device Initialization (which asked me for my serial number btw). After that it finally successfully booted to android UI and currently it's restoring all the apps. I hope it will not die again.

PS: I saw those videos on emmc chip replacement - it'd love to do that if I was a chinese electronic factory employee, with all the equipment, but I'm not :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] will5:
lol, I know, but at least some stores offers the replacement for n1, 2 and 3. Hope they offer for n4 anytime soon, cause there are lot of users affected by this problem.

Hope it works fine :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pmunin:
So far it's functioning more or less, but today after noon it started rebooting all of a sudden - it rebooted like 5-8 times in a row (sometimes started rebooting from the logo screen of previous boot) losing 30% of battery within 30 mins and then it stopped and went to stable mode again. This piece of junk is totally unreliable, but I'm not sure if those on the market are any better. :(
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] will5:
Yes, lot of users with that problem.

Just read other threads, some users solve that by using a wakelock app.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] CousinMikeyP:
Maybe it's your battery? Are you using stock battery? I've went through about four batteries. I think it's because of the overheating. But check your battery my phone would boot loop all the time constantly until I bought a new battery.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Stumpalump:
So just to confirm, this rom doesn't help those of us with the dreaded emmc issues?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] CousinMikeyP:
When I was on qc1 of this ROM I would get random reboots a lot. But since the new update I haven't had any issue whatsoever fingers crossed. And I dirty flashed by the way.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] CousinMikeyP:
What I do is try to limit things that will overheat the phone as much as I can like the brightness for instance I don't keep it to Fulbright anymore, I turned off fast charging as that will heat up the phone really quick. And uninstalled a few third-party apps. I also limit background processes to 4 in developer options. And turned off NFC. And of course I use greenify. Just my 2 cents.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Stumpalump:
Thanks for the good ideas. Please report back if you see issues on this rom! How does a reboot go for you? Can it make it through a full reboot cycle? I'm currently running lanc n7 with wake lock app
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] CousinMikeyP:
I spoke too soon it happened the random reboot and constant boot loop. I am now using the wake lock app. I'll see how that goes and report back.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] xmv540:
Had the same issue a while back. Bought a aftermarket battery and it helped for a while till it started again. Bought a new Samsung battery and I've been good for the past 8 months. Not sure if it will help , just sharing what helped me.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] CousinMikeyP:
Is there any way possible to downgrade to KitKat? Or any other earlier firmware for that matter?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] f4phantomii:
Thanks for this pvsgh!

Really, really appreciate it. Smooth, clean, debloated stock...just the way it was intended.

And the system mods are appreciated too...I guess I'm not the only one that uses those!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] 1sparky:
Help with same issue

Hi pvsgh,

When I flashed the odexed ROM, I got the same error and error with symlinks.

Here is the error message

checking config...

I installed the old odex ROM and I am back up.

Also, can you please provide the EQG1 BL and the modem please?

Thanks a lot for you help.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Try to boot into recovery manually and see if it flashes.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] 1sparky:
I flashed this ROM in recovery. Are you suggesting to do it another way ??
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] umair42:
*Power off your device

*Boot into recovery by pressing power,Home and Volume Up keys all at once.

*Flash rom and see of it flashes or not
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] 1sparky:
I used TWRP and flashed exactly like this. Thanks.

Did you flash it from SD card or internal memory ??
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] umair42:
The rom didn't flashed on my device either
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
My device is dead, so I can't test it now. I wonder why it is working for some and failing for others. It could be TWRP version the latest I was using "twrp-3.0.2-0-trltetmo.img.tar"
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] 1sparky:
Sorry to hear about the device.

I am using the same version of TWRP. I was not sure about what is causing the symlinks issue.

Thanks for trying and I appreciate it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mystic74:
I have a 910W8, canadian version of Note 4

I was able to flash the rom, I am very thankful to the cook

I received the same error as well, I am not sure why it was not able to mount that partition
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
I had similar symptoms with my Note 4 before it finally died completely.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rblckmnjr84:
Do I need to Odin the baseband eqc1 first before installing rom? Right now I'm on epk2. And if so where the is file so tht I can Odin
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] 1sparky:
I was able to flash the EQG1 ROM and here is what I did.

I was already on on pvsgh's odexed EQE2 ROM.

I downloaded the full ROM from Samsung firmare org site. You can search it on google.

Once the tar file was extracted, I was able to odin the tar file. All of the apps that were disabled were still disabled. The ROM is running smooth.

Note that I did not clear or wipe the internal memory etc. before flashing. So the remenants from EQE2 stayed.

---------- Post added at 10:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:56 PM ----------

[/COLOR]I have searched for the modem alone and it has not been extracted as of now (not that I know of).

If you are going to upgrade, then you can update the whole ROM. With some of the newer ones, you may not be able to go back to the older version. Just wanted to let you know. I have taken the plunge to the latest modem and its been okay so far. Good luck.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
You don't need to upgrade, just flash the rom as long as your are on a MM bootloader.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] f4phantomii:
I had the same error. Some mount problem.

I went into TWRP mount options and unmounted...something...don't remember what but there were only two things mounted, and you couldn't see the external SD card where I had the ROM stored if you unmounted the wrong one.

Once I did that, it flashed normally. Been using it all week.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] domhall:
Anyone know if the Invert Colors toggle can be added by editing the settings.db, as before in the past, or how it can be done now???
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] li0nh3art3d:
idk about settings.db or this particular prerooted rom but i know on the official binary Samsung EQG1 odex, the invert colors can indeed be accessed by the accessibility settings and set to be toggled by pressing the home button 3 times in a row
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] 1sparky:
Thats a great find. Thanks for posting here. Hopefully others can benefit. :good:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rblckmnjr84:
Ok I'll give it a try
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] f4phantomii:
Does anyone else have trouble with apps not being able to see running applications? The built-in app widget always shows zero apps running, and any other 3rd party app won't show any apps running either.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
screenshot of the behavior you are talking about?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Ganbara_Knight:
Thank you very much for this. I still have my Note4 and am not switching to the note8. I don't like that I can't change my battery when I want. I hope you keep yours for a long time also. It's still a great promising phone. Who really goes swimming with a phone anyway?? (^_^) P.S. Does this work with Magisk?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
You can install magisk, follow the method in Q/A to remove supersu, then you can install magisk without issues.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Ganbara_Knight:
I am able to install Magisk, but when I install the Xposed framework module with Magisk I lose SafetyNet. I was wondering if there is a way around losing SafetyNet.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Ganbara_Knight:
Also, would you have any idea why the fingerprint scanner is no longer working after I updated to this?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Xposed and Safetynet don't work together. You can have either one.

Nothing changed for fingerprint scanner, but it is possible one of the xposed module you are using, is causing this issue. so try disabling xposed framework and restart to see if you still get this error.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Ganbara_Knight:
It seems when I flashed this ROM from the previous one I lost my "efs" folder contents. The folder is still there but the files are missing. From what I've learned since, I won't be able to use fingerprint workout getting that back. I'm a little sad about it...I've spent two full days trying to resolve it. Any advice?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Trex888:
Deleted
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
EFS is partition not a folder, and this ROM doesn't touch EFS partition. If you can still see your IMEI number under phone setting, you are fine.

Thanks, I'll add this to bugs/fixes post.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] nostreborderaj:
Thanks, pvsgh! I'm wondering if there's anyway to select which UI Mods are active? Removing Sfinder and Quick Connect from notification panel is amazing, but I'd rather not have net speed on statusbar.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Trex888:
For some reason private mode still broken again after every reboot please remove from bug fix.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
ok, thanks for info. My note 4 is still dead so can't test anything, but I'll update the bug/fixes.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Guys, I have found the issue with these releases. Uploading fixed versions now, will update the links once it is done.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
For anyone who had issues installing the initial release, download the new version, it should install fine.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] umair42:
Thanks.It flashes fine now.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] moonlop:
Thank you for this. I'm going to try out the new v2 soon. Is it possible to get a mod to remove just the s finder and quick connect on notification panel and quick settings?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Currently no, may be if I do this mod again with newer build, I'll consider this option and have separate mod files.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] samtheman_01:

encryption

Has anyone been able to enable encryption on this ROM? The usual methods (pskill -KILL daemonsu etc.) do not seem to work. Is Knox a mandatory component of N910(T) encryption? If so, how easy it is to add it back?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Trex888:
Good evening sir .

Can you please make a odex zip file flashable from Twrp to enable all quick toggles like in your rom QG1 6.0.1.

TIA:)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
I haven't tried it but is there any error when you try to use the encryption under setting >> security ?

Toggles are part of others.xml located in CSC folder, you can extract it and use it with choice of your rom. I got this file from [MENTION=1586284]mdiaz33685[/MENTION] couple of months back.

Also, to reflect the changes you would need to wipe data on your rom, in case you want to use your existing rom.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TXFI:
No error, just the usual "shows Encrypting for a while, then reboots without actually encrypting" that is common behavior when the OS recognizes that the device is not stock/is rooted. Often this is circumvented by temporarily disabling root but this ROM does not seem to encrypt even when there is no SuperSU anywhere (by flashing UnSU). This happens possibly due to missing Knox but I have not been able to confirm that. Thanks.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
If you have the stock ODIN file for your model, try extracting the boot.img using 7-zip and flash via TWRP. Want to see if any patches applied to boot.img are causing this.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Trex888:
Thank you so much sir it worked:good:
