Update Stoped On Galaxy Note II Screen

Hello, I used to be rooted with custom ROMs ect but went back to stock I317ATTALJ2 so I can give the phone to my daughter. Well everything went smooth until an update from AT&T came through and she ran it when the battery was at 21% but I'm not sure it that matter but didn't help in matters... Anyhow it ran the upgrade and on reboot it stayed on the Galaxy Note II screen and wont do anything but sit there. I let it sit for a long time before pulling the battery and booting but it goes to same screen and same thing. I can not get into recovery (Volume Up, Home, Pwr) but I can go into download mode. With the battery being so low I read that it charges while in download mode so for the remainder of the day I put the phone in download mode and plugged into charger.
Suggestions?

After you get it charged up some and you're in download mode. Just Odin back to stock Att firmware should fix the problem hopefully...
You can find the stock firmware here>> http://bit.ly/1HNVFVJ
Guess the phone didn't like that update ?.

Ok.
Hopefully everything works out next time around.
Another thing you could try is flashing which ever recovery you previously had installed. Last time I was having issues with something similar, after re flashing my recovery everything started working again. Just just a thought that might work.
I'm monitoring this thread too see what happens ok.

Recovery? can I flash the stock recovery using ODIN? If so where do I get it.... I always have used TWRP I wanted to use custom ROMs never really experimented with anything else.

Yes you can flash a custom recovery from Odin. You just have to use the (Twrp) tar file found here>>>
http://bit.ly/1y0Tyg7
Find your device model and download the tar. And make sure you're downloading the correct file for your device ok!
I to use Twrp and luv it.?

OK, well its not looking good....
1) Flashed the stock firmware suggested...... Still get same results!
2) Flashed TWRP through ODIN and it made it to the same screen and froze. Did a battery pull and button combo and it wont go into recovery.
Is there a application that will force your phone into recovery and download modes? I remember back when I messed with the captivate there was a application someone built that did such a thing.
Any suggestions?

Not sure you were on the newer 4.4.2 bootloader or not. If it was on a newer bootloader then you won't be able to downgrade.. This might help you get the phone working again since you just flashed the original firmware.

Ok not is back working again, which is great news ?. Go to the link I posted for the stock firmware, and use the rooted one.
But first make a backup of your working system first ok.

If you are not having problems with your OTA update you could just flash the 2nd file and you will have root..... Sometimes you have to flash it more than once...... If you are getting poor battery life I would suggest doing a factory reset and starting fresh

I get this error: Custom Binary (Boot) Blocked by FAP Lock.
Anyone else getting this? How do I circumvent?

Completely bricked S6 Edge G925T - any help?

I can't boot up, can't get into recovery. I can only get into download mode. No matter what TWRP I flash, it says "Custom Binary(BOOT) Block By FRP Lock" on the Downloading screen.
I tried flashing stock 5.1.1 odin, 5.1.1 bootloader/modem, etc. Can't get past this to get into recovery or boot the device. Any suggestions??
EDIT: Good news! Flashing the stock 5.1.1 odin image worked . (link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/sm-g925f-s6-firmware-thread-t3078841)
It even preserved my data and everything (I guess b/c I was on the leaked 5.1.1). I'll probably just back up some things and start fresh on the stock software, but I'm just glad to have it working.

I was running the G925T (edge) leaked 5.1.1 rom ([5.1.1][ROM][TW][OE6] Blck/TW), which worked well for the month that I used it. I had TWRP from that thread installed as well (I think it was 2.8.6.x). Everything was good at this point.
Where I am now:
When I power the device on, it says:
KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Custom binary blocked by FRP Lock.
When I try to enter Recovery, it says:
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Custom binary blocked by FRP Lock.
What I did to get here:
SHORT VERSION - flashed latest modem and bootloader for G925T (edge) via Odin.
LONG VERSION
Last night I attempted to flash (via ODIN) the G925T bootloader, modem, and TWRP for this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-xtrestolite-pure-edition-1-0-beta-1-t3082467
G92xF(D)/T Galaxy S6 Universal Odexed Pure edition ROM
Based on the latest Samsung Stock G925F XXU2BOFJ Lollipop 5.1.1 firmware (Base build date: 20-JUN-2015)
NOTE: I didn't ever get to flash the ROM because the trouble started when trying to flash the bootloader/modem via ODIN.
- Odexed Pure Edition: Odexed & 100% original/Stock files!
Steps followed:
Do exactly step-by-step the following things:
- Unplug your Phone (IMPORTANT!)
- Turn your Phone completely off (This is IMPORTANT)
- Start your Phone in download mode on this way: Press Vol down + Home + Power buttons till the screen turns on, press Vol Up to continue (Only enter download mode on this way, otherwise it won't work!!)[/B]
- Open Odin 3.10.6 on your PC (Make sure you're using this version of Odin, other versions won't work correctly maybe!)
- Click on the 'BL' button, and load in your BOOTLOADER tar.md5 file for your model
- Click on the 'CP' button, and load in your MODEM tar.md5 file for your model
- DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING ELSE (you can brick your phone if you choose other settings in Odin)
- Now Connect your phone to your computer (DO NOT connect your phone before this step, otherwise it won't work!)
- Click on the Start button
- Wait till it finish flashing.
- Your phone reboots automatically after flashing. <--- device never rebooted because ODIN said Failed instead of Successful.
I then tried to flash TWRP 2.8.7.1 (link below) since maybe that had to be flashed before the bootloader/modem, but it failed too.
Links:

5.1.1 Modem: G925T-UVU2COF6
DOWNLOAD - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347766211
You also have to update your TWRP to the latest version (2.8.7.1 or newer) when flashing this.

Is there a file I can Odin flash to disable FRP Lock? I can't boot up to turn it off.
If not, what are my options from here? Any way to preserve SDCARD or even /Data?
If all else fails, what Odin file should I flash to get back to stock?
EDIT: Regardless of what I try to flash in Odin (recovery, kernel, TWRP, modem), it begins the process but then fails because the phone states "_______ is not SEANDROID enforcing" and states FRP lock is on.

SmartSwitch isn't detecting my phone (although Odin does). What mode should it be in? I can get into Download Mode, but that's about it!

Your biggest problem right now is getting past FRP / factory reset protection, the only way to avoid this would have been to turn on bootloader unlock in "developer options"
OEM unlocking.
The security system is protecting your phone from you.
You need to be able to smartswitch back to stock but since your device status was not official, custom after running odin, root or anything else you may have done with root, smartswitch won't recognize your phone.
Without "OEM unlocking" on, the phone will turn on you.
The purpose of this security is to prevent your lost or stolen phone from been modified in any way and activated with another carrier.
Maybe tmobile has a procedure for returning phone back to normal.

Guys at the store couldn't do anything unfortunately. I guess it's just a brick now?
EDIT: The leaked 5.1.1 didn't have that option in dev options either. I guess running the leaked 5.1.1 is where I screwed up, even though it worked great while actually using it. I didn't have root, but I had TWRP recovery.

Would flashing the stock image work since it's not a custom one? I'm downloading it now from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/sm-g925f-s6-firmware-thread-t3078841
I'm guessing it won't work or else you would have suggested it. If anyone has a suggestion, I'm open to it!
It seems like there must be a way to disable FRP with an Odin flash, but maybe not.

After looking over article I give it a thumbs up, it may work for you.
Thats the problem with leaked updates or firmware, sometimes devs take shortcuts in order to package it for flashing and security stuff gets left out.
The ota 5.1.1, shows the option to turn on unlock bootloader .
Keep us posted, good luck.

Thanks for replying, by the way. I got locked when i am still on 5.0.2 and i flash the bootloader and the modem. It was the modem of 5.1.1 didn't go through.
Will it be flashed through the 5.1.1 firmware, if not, any other options can solve the frp locked? Thanks

You need to flash 5.0.2 stock firmware with Odin, then maybe.
You can't flash anything that's 5.1.1 on your phone.

tried, still failed in odin. I think is may be because my bootloader is actually 5.1.1's.
However, I saw above said flash 5.1.1 odin image ? what is that? Thanks.

solve it by flash 5.1.1 tar via odin as above said. thanks.

Getting My Tablet Back to Stock Firmware [SM-T800]

Hello XDA,
I am looking to update my Tab S to Lollipop. Problem is, I rooted it almost a year ago and do not know the method in which I did it. I'm guessing without knowing any other information, my best best bet would be downloading 5.0.2 from Sammobile (currently doing so) and using Odin 3.09? Is this the easiest way?
Also, if I'm located in the USA, what region do I want to use for the download? I didn't see anything that applied to me, so I picked an unknown region. Is there something else I should be looking for?

The quickest way would be to use Samsung Kies. The download is quicker but it installs immediately so you don't get to keep the download.
EDIT: Also the US region is called Cellular South.

Is that what Smart Switch Mobile is? Do you happen to have a link for a short guide? And will I still need to download the stock firmware when using Kies?
And thanks for clearing up the region question.

http://www.samsung.com/in/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/#none
Use the link to download Kies, install, connect tablet to pc and open Kies. From there you'll know what to do. No guide necessary. No need to download the firmware either. Kies is automated once you select upgrade.
EDIT: There are two versions of Kies. Grab Kies3.
Sent from my SM-T700 using Tapatalk

Thank you! You were right, Kies3 immediately recognized that I did not have the latest firmware. So now I'm waiting for the update to download and implement itself.

I am in the exact same situation as you.
Not able to take the OTA even if i undo root via supersu
Kies detected that there was an update. But BEEN HOURS with "Preparing software update components for Galaxy Tab S"
I closed it and I am trying with Smart Switch .. same .. been 1 hour now and nothing happens.
How could I flash the latest firmware? Thanks

You may want to check with other sources, but my initial thought before getting a response here was to download the current firmware build and use the Odin tool. I'm assuming it would work for you.

I have downloaded the stock ROM from some Russian web site which then directed me to some Google drive, a 1.6GB download, in my case SEE-T805XXU1BOD1-20150511102748.zip
I then used Odin to flash it - Select BL for "T805XXU1BOG2_bootloader.tar.md5" (stock bootloader) and AP for "T805XXU1BOD1_T805OXX1BOD1_T805XXU1BOD3_HOME.tar.md5" (stock ROM)
I believe that the above procedure works under almost all circumstances, root or no.
I then made plenty of backups with TWRP so that I do not have to use Odin anymore, I simply restore the stock ROM from backup (plus I get all my applications and system as I want it rather than having to re-do everything from scratch each time).
And just to say that all the OSes I have downloaded so far, they all had problems, so I end up restoring the stock ROM within hours of installing a new OS.

It has begun!

I have been checking the wifes phone every morning for the last month. Looks like the Marshmallow update is about 1.3 gigs. I have no idea if it will be bug free, but I imagine it will be stable. Now, for those reading this, that are confused and on a stock ROM, go to settings, about device, and then software update.

It's working great so far..

Yes, both our S6 edge plus and the Note 5 received Marshmallow today from T-Mobile!!

I don't think I will take the update until I know we can still root and a custom recovery.

No need to bother with kernels it's not needed to ROOT MM 6.0!!!
1: odin flash twrp-3.0.2-0-zeroltetmo.img.tar, flash this after doing
the OTA Tmobile update of the mm 6.0 .
2: then in twrp recovery flash this supersu-v2.71-systemmode.zip.
If you do do it right, you will have no rooting issues.
Good luck,
Have a great day!

You are going to need to Odin the T-mobile stock firmware, which you can find on MinisterJunky's post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...rmware-g928t-complete-untouched-boh6-t3198387
After that, you just need to run software update from the settings and you should be good to go. I would highly recommend doing a factory reset after you ODIN the stock 5.1 firmware before updating to 6.01.

Need help...I odined back to 5.1.1 and factory reset after....Then updated MM of phone...Then made Sure OEM unlocked, rebooted into download and odin flashed TWRP 3.0.2 and it say PASS and when i reboot into recovery it reboots into stock recovery!!! I have tried a few times in odin and does the same thing, i reboot into stock recovery everytime

So for some reason I am having the same problem trying to get this rooted.
I have made sure the OEM unock is enabled in develper settings
I boot into download mode, and I uncheck reset in options
I ODIN flash twrp-3.0.2-0-zeroltetmo.img.tar
I power off the phone, then I try to boot into recovery, the phone will show recovery is not enforcing (or whatever it says in red), then the screen just turns black.
Then I will reboot the phone again and it will remove the custom recovery.
Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

finally we got him.marshmallow update on s6 edge+ t mobile.now for customs rom?

100% complete and after that the error appears... Tried 3 different internet connection)
Probably, it is better to wait for stock firmware and do it through the Odin. Ehh..
