Try connecting your phone to Smartswitch.

While connected to smartswitch, check for OTA.

Disconnect your phone and check for OTA again.

Hi there,

I've been trying to flash the latest sammobile firmware to my note 9 n9600 and had no success at all.

I don't know what is happening.

OEM is enable.

USB debugging is enable.

Installed firmware is xxxxxCSH1

Downloaded firmware is xxxxxxCSI1

I got the phone from my mother and did a factory reset. After that i enabled developer options, activated OEM option and followed the wipe data request.

After that OEM unlock disappeared from developer options and I did that change date trick and it came back.

Many factory resets after that and OEM still enabled and is appearing on developers options.

Images attached are from odin error stats and my phone screen in download mode connected to odin.

Thanks

Hi there henklbr,

My mistake. So many tabs opened that I ended up confusing titles.

Anyway, I got it to work, somehow the problem was my computer running windows 10.

I don't know why it happened because I did the same precedure with a galaxy S8 last week.

Moving the "workbench" to a computer running windows 7 did the job.

Thx.

Finally got the OTA update, this time I didn't flash it via Odin like always, and now I have the call and messages continuity feature

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaylence:
Install via Recovery Mode:

(Haven't used this method in a while, so actual wordings in recovery mode might differ from what's written below)

1. Download the OTA file. If it came with ".bin" extension, replace ".bin" with ".zip"

2. Save the downloaded "xxxxx.zip" to the root directory of your microsd card.

3. Reboot to Recovery Mode

4. In Recovery mode, select "apply update.zip from sd card"

5. Select "xxxx.zip"

6. Confirm installation

Important: Verify first if your current firmware is CSI3, otherwise it won't work.

This OTA file is for version:

You can give it a try. If it's not compatible it will just give you an error during installation.

root and loose data evertime.

i believe most of your questions can be answered with a search of the note 9 forums and at least a read of dr ketans oem fix root guide in the development section. please take the time and go through the posts.

with titanium backup it would probably help speed up data restore after an update and re root. as long as backups are in ext sd card. or copied somewhere other than internal storage.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaylence:
You can no longer go back to 3CSI3 with 4CSJ1 installed because of the bootloader.

Notice that CSI3 comes with "3" while the CSJ1 comes with "4"

What you need to do is download the full 4CSJ1 firmware and Odin flash again.

Use these links if you're having problems with frija.

Thanks for your reply

I have the full 4CSJ1 and when Odin it stuck in odm.img

i got it with Frija but i had to removed the .md5 and flash as tar file.

also downloading from the link you provided is really slow

also i discovered that the product code from the link u gave me is DBT

the 4CSJ1 file i hav is BTU

Now am downloading N960FXXS4CSJ1/N960FOXM4CSJ1/N960FXXS4CSJ1

product code DBT

i uncheck crc32

should i go ahead?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaylence:
I'm assuming you use the HOME_CSC?

That might be the problem.

You have to use the other CSC file.

Odin flash again the BTU firmware, but this time use the CSC (not the HOME_CSC) file.

But as a result, it will wipe clean your phone.

Could have been easier if you just flashed/sideloaded the 4CSJ1 update.zip via recovery or adb instead of using odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] okolobaccess:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaylence:
Let's see:

You used the full CSJ1 firmware. (BL, AP, CP, & CSC)?

Then in Odin, only the F. Reset Time & Wipe are enabled?

For the custom binary block, I have no idea.

Can you do wipe cache data partition and wipe data/factory reset in recovery mode?

Do that, before flashing CSJ1.

If it still didn't work, I don't know.

This is fixed in the November security patch for samsung phones (source: sammobile). The risk is not 100%, but it's there - especially for those who sideload apps + you end up staying with widely announced big vulnerability.

I find it quite funny how some people neglect the security of the device that holds the most important data about most of them. :)

Can anyone help in how I can flash any firmware back?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaylence:
Downgrading to Oreo is no longer possible because of bootloader restriction.

You can downgrade to Pie but only to specific firmware.

Since Android 10 beta came with bootloader version "4", you can only downgrade to Pie firmware with version "4" bootloader.

The latest firmware you odin flash is 4CSK2.
