Ok, you are correct it was a A13 bootimage I used for the A12. How would I proceed from here? I've achieved root but would prefer to not have to Bluetooth my wifi as it's slow as dog ****.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] Nahked:
It seems as if you're much smarter than i.. I would like to link up using FB messenger, Telegram, Discord you name it I'll figure it out... beats fighting with forum replys..
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] lewmur:
You need to flash the A13 AP, BL and CSC with Odin. Boot it and connect wifi. Skip all of the rest of setup and re-enalble Dev mode. Boot to download again and flash the modified boot image to get root. BTW, I don't do private messaging. Only here in XDA so others with the problem can see the solution.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] Nahked:
Touché..... ok so the file from frija do the entire ap folder aswell as the other that it comes with? In odin?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] lewmur:
Yes, you need to extract the files from the Frija download and flash the AP, BL and CSC files with Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] Nahked:
Ok, from there, I take the extracted boot img place it on tab, run the magisk patch and stuff all over again like I did now for root?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] lewmur:
Yes. Or if the one you patched before is from the AP file you just flashed, you can just flash it again with Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] Nahked:
Using magisk on A12 to patch won't affect that?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] lewmur:
I don't understand. I thought the boot.img you patched was from the A13 download and that you just flashed the A13 AP, BL and CSC from Odin. The patched boot.img has to be from the A13 AP file.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] Nahked:
I ONLY flashed the boot img. What I did was extracted boot img only, put it on tablet, used magisk to patch it with the cmd panel, sent it back to the laptop and entered download mode and flashed the boot img after turning it into a .tar
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] lewmur:
STOP!!! What ROM do you have installed on the device?? Where did you get the boot.img you are flashing??

edit: From the above attachments, it would appear the boot.img is from the latest version. But if you don't have the ENTIRE latest version installed, that ISN't GOING TO WORK!! I explained before, you MUST first update the T733 the latest stock ROM BEFORE flashing the modified boot.tar.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] Nahked:
Right. So far all I'm doing is going over what I did so when I flash the entire file to update to A13 I'll just reuse my current boot.img tar that I gained root with originally. These are old pictures.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] lewmur:
Sorry. I was under the impression you had already done that.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] Nahked:
Here's what I have...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] Nahked:
How does this look?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] lewmur:
Flash it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] Nahked:
It's flashing.

Edit: Passed.

Edit edit: we have wifi

Edit edit edit: it's on A13 I'll be flashing The boot img tar right now.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] Nahked:
Ok, I am on A13 I just installed magisk superuser isn't grayed out anymore and it asked for additional setup, I'm rebooting now but 100% I have root with wifi. Thank you for your time and knowledge.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] Nahked:
Can this method be done on any bootloader android??

This topic may be a bit premature seeing how manilla 2d is still in it's beta stages but...

I havn't tryed Manilla 2d yet but for everyone who has, what do you like/dislike about it? Would you prefer it over Htc Home? Why would you? I'm using Htc Home right now. Especially with the nice Htc Customizer.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] slovoflud:
I suggest you try it first, before creating a thread - it only takes 5 minutes..

and to answer your question I prefer Home.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] swtaltima:
Manila absolutely no question about it. Seriously, this is like asking if one prefers a bumper car or a real car. Just my .02 but i think you'll find most will choose manila.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] todd737:
over Manilla

I found this thread while looking for a non Manilla ROM after being annoyed by the screen rotation to not want to use it any more.

Looked cool initially...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] muffinman123987:
it looks cool and stuff but i changed back from manilla to the htc home because manilla had to many bugs
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] xxprincecjxx:
Search for AthineOS. He made two roms, one for manilla and one for htc home. Rom is superfast. I also suggest Duttys_WM6[1].1_5.2.19700_Hybrid_V2 rom. Not so lite as AthineOS rom, it's a very good rom and always had decent battery life no matter what radio u used...

Back to topic..

This is exactly what i wanted. So far poll is 2-2. I think Manilla will outweigh HHome once all the bugs are tweaked and landscape = 100% other than the quick fix he has out right now. In any case, they are both really nice apps to have for our today screen and for the authors to have many donations going there way..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tsadek:
Home until the bugs are sorted although have recently fiddled with mobile shell and throttle launcher. I find I keep going back to home with ultimate launch.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mskip:
Great analogy mate haha :D

I figured I would try Manila2D for a day and then go back to HTC Home when it first came out in a Rom but from the moment I first used it I fell in love with the feel and ease of use. You can navigate through all the menus using your finger or DPad as prefered whereas Home tended to be very fiddly and I was always using my stylus or the start menu to get where I wanted. Im using SJ's OPAL build 11th Oct now and I have absolutely no bugs and its extremely fast and responsive. In my experience most of the people who have experienced problems in the latest builds have been down to bad flashes. I always advise everyone to shut down all other programs and keep the Rom update program in the foreground when flashing and to take out the sim card to avoid all posibility of glitches occuring.

Manila wins hands down anyday.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MACkjam:
I use neither, because:

1. Manilla vanilla, shmanilla. Sheesh, if I wanted a touchflo device I would buy a Touch Pro/HD or something like that. Every second thread in development and hacking is about manilla something or other. Enough already.

2. I HATE fingerprints, smears, etc on my screen.

3. HTC Home requires far too much Today real estate!

This is my setup:

PhoneAlarm Pro with B&W pure Skin (small footprint)

PDC (Pocket Digital Clock) with Alien Round fonts

Sun n Moon

Homescreen ++ (Ex Batterystatus) with Tray Icons activated.

SPB Traveller

TodayAgenda

And then I use S2U2 with an animated gif. That's it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tweaked:
I use manilla. I love the customization of it. I love using my fingers to get to the things I use. I alos love the themes I can make. Home just never appealled to me at all. I was lucky enough not to have my phone bit for a week or two before M2d came out. :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] typo:
I use Manilla. It's attractive, responsive, and well laid-out. It's not perfect, though -- I find the built-in weather app pretty weak and I like Live Search better than Google Maps. But even with those complaints, I still prefer Manilla.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kilrah:
You forgot the "None" option. No matter how hard I try, I keep going mad at those "newfangled" interfaces - both of them - and end deactivating them after 1 hour.

Good'ole today plugins and Quickmenu rule.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] adstevenson:
MANILLA! :cool:

If I wanted things plain ole, I'd buy a flip phone or something. Manilla looks great, works great and I wouldn't have anything else.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tanked:
The new ThrottleLauncher 0.9.5 Beta destroys Manilla. I cannot stand how hard it is to customize Manilla (not graphically), where ThrottleLauncher can be customized very easily. The lastest release is quite fast!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] louisli:
Yes you can always buy a new device with TouchFLO but roms are something free.

I have used Manila for a few weeks and, trust me, you won't have fingerprints on your screen unless your fingers are sweaty. You will always wipe away your fingerprints with touchs
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] typo:
I'm definitely keeping my eye on ThrottleLauncher. I like it a lot in concept, and customizability is great. But my experimenting with the 0.9.5 Beta didn't impress me much. It still felt a little sluggish and I just couldn't control it as accurately and quickly as manilla.

I need to try loading it onto a lighter ROM and doing a little customization.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tanked:
Make sure you installed NetCF 3.5, and that apps are set to use it as defualt. I turned off all the transarency and went into the vars.xml and set my fps to 30 (because the editor is 20 max). It's smooth and quick.

PM me if you want the NetCF 3.5 standalone cab and NetCF config tool cab. I don't want to hijack this thread more than I already have.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rkadar1:
why doesnt a chef put the new TL on a rom ...that would be so cool
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] asrrin29:
I like having all my info available to me on one screen, especially the weather. I have my phone set up to use HTC home, Calendar++, and weatherbug. I don't have any ugly scrollbars on my screen, I have a clear view of messages, time, next appointments, and weather for the next three days, all without having to click through various screens. Plus, Manilla, HTC Weather, and pretty much any other built-in weather app I've used does not have weather info for my small town I live in, but weatherbug does, plus I get severe weather alerts and it's very customizable.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] blackspawn2:
I hate Manila, it sucks to me! :mad: HTC Home allow you to have more things under control on the screen. HTC Home no doubts :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Moe5508:
can I throw in Manilla2D Vs SPB Mobile Shell (v2.1.3)?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] wisniak:
HTC Home (or SPB Shell combined with the HTC Home Plugin).

I've found M2D to be too inflexible for my liking.

Sure, it's fancy. Nice looking, many skins, etc.

But for the advanced user it's too difficult to customize.

Examples: can't have apps on the Today screen, can't have several cities simultaneously in the weather panel, etc.

In my Today screen I have all the apps I use most often, including Newsbreak, google search, IGO8, etc. can't have any of these in the M2d screen.

Further, AFAIK there's still no decent (and stable) M2D customization app (all I can recall is the one right here in XDA, which was (maybe still is) in beta stages (which actually resemble alpha stages, due to it's extreme instability).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] denny_1986:
im using manila 2d (cab version) and i like it a lot. The only problem i find is the lack of landscape compatibility and that programs dont close when u X out of them...maybe im doing something wrong

To pros: is there any difference in a rom version compared to a cab version for manila 2d?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pyraxiate:
I have no problems. Try flashing a rom that has M2D cooked in. Works amazingly well.

Currently im on L26's Manilla 2D. Works great!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] zephxiii:
Home, smaller footprint, less overhead. All i want is a 2nd app shortcut tab.

M2d, way too much baggage, too much overhead, pain in the arse, lags. I would love it on the touch pro though.

EDIT: Posting this from mini, i love the double post prevention on this forum!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] seven5suited:
If you want to use your phone with one hand easily then Manila is way better. If you constantly flip the keyboard in and out while on the home screen, you will grow to hate Manila even with the landscape fixes. I have evolved into using my Kaiser like a touch, and flipping out the keyboard only while in an app that needs typing. With that tiny compromise, I find Manila to keep me super-productive. The app launcher alone is worth it, let alone the email and photo previews. Sooooooo slick. It's like a nice middle finger at the iPhone and it's iPhiles.

If you are running it on a Kaiser, disable the google maps tab. Sucks to slide out the keyboard to type a location and watch that tab break. Just put Google maps on the app launcher and move on with your life. I even got rid of the browser tab. That's more for phones w/o a browser button. My e button launches opera mini. That's like my other middle finger at MS's horrible excuse for a mobile browser.

I hope I have swayed you with my propaganda. Worship Manila.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost_22:
Hello, I have a lg g2 d802 (32gb) that hasn't turned on for a few years. The phone was working but then one evening I left it on charge and the next morning it didn't turn on anymore. I tried to replace the ignition circuit and battery but it still doesn't work. I don't know what happened to it, but I think maybe the problem is with the motherboard. I would need to recover the data present in the emmc internal memory. Do you have any idea how I can do it? I was also thinking of buying another working lg g2 and trying to swap the emmc. Or is there a cheap way to be able to recover the data on the memory? Ideas on how I can unsolder the emmc? Thanks so much for your help.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ren101099:
I think the phone is bricked. I tried factory reset and it is still always booting to recovery. This is my first time rooting. I didn't realize it was so easy to brick a phone. I never bricked a PC. I didn't think I did anything very risky. I didn't even try installing anything fancy like xposed or magisk — just an app from the Play Store. I thought people were just being dramatic when they talked about "bricked" phones....

Can someone tell me how to recover it with Odin3 v3.14.1.exe or Odin3 v3.14.1_3B_PatcheD.exe? I can still get to download mode on the phone.

What files do I download to recover a Note 4 SM-N910P?

Odin says "Changing the partition without unlocking will cause problems." Does the fact that I successfully rooted it using the "CF-Auto-Root" mean that it is unlocked?

I have the file twrp-3.6.0_9-0-trlte.img.

The SHA-256 hash is 2a5394313e1afe1c92576a5ceeba5cea462706bfc01e2da3d836fc381a119967.

Can I use this file to un-brick the phone?

Odin says:

Tips - How to download HOME binary

OLD model : Download one binary ".tar.md5"

NEW model : Download BL + AP + CP + HOME_CSC

There is also a button for USERDATA.

I don't know what any of this means — Which buttons do I press? When I used the "CF-Auto-Root" method I used a .tar.md5 file with an older version of Odin. For that, I used the AP button.

Or should I flash a stock Samsung ROM instead of twrp-3.6.0_9-0-trlte.img? Should I use the old version of Odin (Odin3-v3.10.6.exe) instead of Odin3 v3.14.1.exe or Odin3 v3.14.1_3B_PatcheD.exe?

I noticed that it said on the download-mode screen:

SW REV CHECK FAIL : [aboot]Fused 5 > Binary 4

So I am going to try to find and flash N910PVPS4DQF1, which I think is a later version than N910PVPS4DQB3. I think either I or the aforementioned Auto-Root had updated from N910PVPS4DQB3 to N910PVPS4DQF1.

Does this sound like it will work to you? I hope so.

I hope I can find it — an authentic, malware-free original version.

And I PRAY 🤞🤞🤞 that it works when I flash it.

🤞🤞🤞
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ren101099:
It still fails with the same error message "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [aboot]Fused 5 > Binary 4", even though the firmware exactly matches what is shown on the recovery boot screen, N910PVPS4DQF1. Why does this happen? How the f. did my aboot get to such a high version number?

Hey,

I don't know if the website you posted is legit or not, but apparently, this one is:

updato.com

https://xdaforums.com/t/updato-largest-online-firmware-archive-fast-and-totally-free.3413785/

To be honest, jumping from 2017 to a sudden 2020 update does look a bit fishy so wouldn't download anything from there.

Also, I don't have a Note 4 personally, so I don't exactly know how to root it, but when you open the page of the firmware you want on updato, it gives you instructions on how to flash it.. (tho it seems like you already know how to do that) - and the XAS (Sprint) carrier is already filtered.

After taking a look on the CF Autoroot website, it says that it's based on the build ID "MMB29M.N910PVPS4DQF1" for your SM-N910P.

So, yeah the ...F1 should be good, try this one:

Regarding TitaniumBackup - the app itself shouldn't be able to brick your phone and I'm pretty sure something got messed up after deleting / uninstalling the Samsung DM Services app.

Instead of deleting it, you should just try to freeze it with Titanium.

Hope that kinda helped and good luck. :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ren101099:
Yeah, your suggestion to freeze instead of uninstall definitely seems to have worked 😁 — thanks again.

I didn't want to pay for Titanium for something that wasn't guaranteed to work, so I installed Island, thinking I might be able to use that to freeze. I had to set it up manually because of some complaints about a modified system or custom OS preventing creation of a work profile, but I had done that before on my other phone to avoid some encryption requirement. (Island offered to automatically set itself up with root privileges, but it just crashed after I granted it such privilege 🫤 (Face with Diagonal Mouth emoji).) But I couldn't use Island to freeze apps in mainland without God Mode, and the instructions for setting up God Mode, unfortunately, went over my head (e.g., "Destroy Island space" = how?).

So what I did instead is use this adb command:

adb shell "su -c 'pm disable com.samsung.syncservice'"

Now when I look at Samsung DM Service in Titanium Backup, it shows the option "Defrost," meaning that it is frozen. So this adb command apparently does the same thing that the paid version of Titanium Backup will do for a fee.

And now the phone can reboot, and the Hands Free Activation doesn't show up. It's weird how the boot process freaks out about an uninstall, but is cool with disablement. Lesson learned: If I have an annoying system app, I should freeze it instead of uninstalling it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dave678:
I got rid of Samsung DM Service with no issues on my N910P and N920P. With Lollipop Sprint added Samsung DM Phone Interface and if you uninstall it then the phone will bootloop. That's what happened with my N920P. Reflashing the firmware helped the phone recover. You got rid of that which was the cause of your issue not the Samsung DM Service.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] FireLord1704:
Hi everyone,

i'm currently living as an expat in China and will do so for the next two years.

I bought a Samsung Tab 7 FE here in China and would like to switch my firmware version to the international or european one to get rid of the censorship and not being able to install certain apps like Maps etc.

I've read through the recent rooting thread, unlocked my bootloader and got Odin and Frija downloaded.

What i can't find is the international firmware version of my device.

To make it clear:

Model Number: SM-T735C

CHC: CHC

Frija suggests this file:

SM-T735C_1_20211123165801_q8v4albsaf_fac.zip.enc4

But this will probably just update my firmware to the latest China firmware, right?

I also looked on sammobile but they seem to not know my device...

It should now be possible to do what i'm trying to do, can somebody give me some advice how to proceed?

Thanks in advance, have been waiting since June to get rid of this firmware :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] citizenjack:
Did you ever figure this out? I'm in the same position now and was looking for an answer to this too.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] malik1004:
The "C" means you have a special hardware variant for China, it will not work with non-Chinese firmware. Your only option is a custom ROM, and with Samsung's recent moves against those, good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] FireLord1704:
Hardwarewise it's exactly the same, just got the restrictions on the software side. Unfortunately i've not figured it out yet @citizenjack, currently i'm using it only for media where i works just fine. I think sooner or later someone will come up with a solution
