Restore from Custom Rom

Hi,
I am needing some help please, I recently restored back to stock rom T989UVLH1 running 4.0.4, Kernal 3.0.8, Build IMM76D.UVLH1
Done via Odin,
All is ok except I am missing Android Beam and NFC, is there somethig I missed? I am trying to get phone ready for sell.
Thanks
Lee

did you download the stock Firmware from SamMobile page ? I can't see how something like this could happen.

Agreed ^^^

Thanks will give that a shot, it was not from there I am sure, it was from a post in the ROMs section. Sorry for the n00b question.
I used to root and update alot back in my Moto Cliq days.

thats because you flashed the sprint version of the ROM onto your S3. download the AT&T version, full wipe and flash.

but if its possible, i could intall the version of i9300 and it will turn into international version wont it?

NO! it will turn into a brick!!
only flash ROMs that are specifically for your device!
dude, you need to read up on all of this. check out the general forum. if your phone is an i747, then ONLY flash i747 ROMs.

dude you got me wrong . I know all about it but syneergy has published its att-sprint-us cellular version together. but i think its sprint based but available for all . and it screwed up my phone . I dont know how to come back. ı tried to flash cm att version but i couldnt .

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2179330
Step 5 in this thread has to do with flashing a ROM. download the CORRECT ROM and Gapps and follow those steps.
After you have completed that and have booted into the device fine (everything's correct and working), follow Step 4 on that thread to create a backup.

you asked about installing an international ROM. that's what i was replying to. what synergy release did you download?

okay it may seem i go stupid but İ had to flash sprint becuz it wasnt accepting att version. so i did install it and it seems to be workin okay. But i concern about i might be a problem after a while. And I still could not figure out how to make it back. i mean make it back to att version ? can anyone explain that ?

the reason i asked what release you were using was because certain versions of synergy dont work well with AT&T. the r290 and higher releases are supposedly working well.
if you used a release listed as r290 or higher then you might want to try a different ROM

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1792499 i have flashed the latest version that is r373 . it turned my phone into what it is not but suprisingly it works like a horse

Don't mistake me as being "hard/rude"... but "know all about it" means you would've been careful in the first place, along with ways to come back in case of issue.
Like the previous poster said, you should flash only the ROM that's intended for the phone.
Also, a dev might release a ROM for all three carriers, but if you actually look into the OP of that ROM you'll realize that there is a version for each device.

Oh.i took it as my mistake.i shouldnt have said that. But i meant that i knew what he says but yeah ur right.i have no explanation for that. But i still cant see att version separetly ? Could you please link me

That's fine. Not an issue esp cos people here only try to help than finger point
Anyways, back to topic. If you do not see an AT&T version, I would suggest checking in the ROM thread itself. And if you still can't find it, it would mean there is no AT&T version. So you might be better off with one of the many AT&T specific ROMs here.

Okay thanks a lot for ur interest.im gonna give a few try more. And id like to say that even if my model nber is changed into sprint, my baseband number still shows that it is at&t . yeah its a bit confusing for me.anyways i will try to make it back and lets see if i can make it.

Problem is solved !!
I solved the problem through changing some parameters in built.prop like ''from d2spr to d2att and I used prop editor app ". http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1828152 ....this link has the sample for att mobile phones. By this way, i succesfully changed the model number so that I could use att version stock rom to take everything back. I flashed att stock rom through Odin and its done !
Thanks for everbody's help !! sorry for english ,cuz im not native. If anyone has the problem and cant make it through, please let me know and im gonna try to make it clear.

You may have the wrong recovery installed on your phone. The synergy thread has specific instructions concerning which version will be installed and it being dependant on your specific recovery. It clearly says that if you get to the installer in the aroma...and your phones model is shown and is wrong...that you should install the phones proper recovery.

Sorry but I'm reporting this crap because you're clearly just been completely and utterly lazy.
1. Used completely idiotic generic title.
2. Clearly not spent 5 minutes searching/reading.
Also watch this XDA official video..

No you can´t do it, couse the botloader and the knox app has been preventing of the downgrade, may in the future some one can give us a solution bot today we don´t have.

[q] locked or unlocked?

-No theres no reason to tick repartition unless you're flashing a 3 part firmware.
-im pretty sure it doesnt have to be carrier locked
-jb update for us was a disaster :/
You thought pretty wrong. Many people left xda because of the community :/

Nice one, JB, is running smooth and quick, after reading about a ram hack on this site , which has increased my max ram to 624mb instead of
a mere 482mb I was left with after updating to JB, so for now I shall play with this until I get bored then it will be time to bite the bullet and come into the light and join the ever growing community that believe in freedom.... thanks for your help Teddytsen

SM-N920A 6.0.1 Rooting

Can someone please help me with this. I bought 2 of these phones at the same time in august, one was already rooted from the factory! No problem I'm using lucky patcher and all. The other will not root not matter what I do! I cant find any solid info on this.

Bought it that way from AT&T... Is there a way to clone one phone to the other so they are both rooted? Maybe I can copy my phone to a zip and upload it?

Can you screen shot your kernel information in settings and then about phone so I can see what it says for the rooted kernel. And copying the entire system to use it on the other phone is possible. Just depends on certain things.

I guess I should of bought a rooted one myself...........

think that no one has the root yet on this phone, so, pay attention to the instructions that forum masters will give to you. You could be a HERO for the entire Sm-n920a community and users hahahah. Btw, i don't know your knowledge about this things but yes, is possible to do this. Obvious, when someone of the biggest users will teach you how to do what you need, you could share the system clone with us!

Not to mention there's a big donation for anyone that finds a root method. So if you really have a rooted at&t note 5 there could be money coming your way.

Where's this donation? We are close, also luckypatcher works WITHOUT root. Technically we already have root, it just sucks really bad.

I could of sworn I seen a bounty for the n920a like a year ago, but now I'm not finding anything. I should look before I comment apparently. However, much respect TechNyne66. I've been following you working a root method for a while now, and great job on being close.

@TechNyne66 It looks like he been out of the game for awhile, but try to contact Dan Rosenberg aka djrbliss. If anyone can help, he can.

Do you have a username? I got another member to join in again who says he knows how to complie kernels with ease. So lets hope this gets going! Everything is layed out we just need to get the code written. Remember anything is possible when you put you're mind to it, but this is with code. Kexec has worked in the past for locked bootloaders so I don't see why my notes in theory but plausible.

@TechNyne66 He is not a member, just a man that knows kernels and exploits. He is the one that unlocked the AT&T s4's bootloader. He gave root to many Motorola devices also. He knows everything Linux and android. Contact him on Twitter, djrbliss

I shall look into it.

Can we get a system dump of your partitions? We just need your kernel zImage and I can put it together.
I'd really like to see a dump of the system partition.

Follow a guide a make a full system dump of your rooted phone and then make a nandroid backup.
Upload it to us and we can make a clone. Please!
If you have a real full root. We need your system dump to unlock at&t and Verizon both.

Chill bro I'm working on getting it from him. I've seen accident eng phones released by Samsung before so maybe it happened again.

There's no root for AT&T Note 5 SM-N920A if you are running Marshmallow with the Nov security update! If you are on this version you are screwedededed!!!! I tried every type of way to install firmwares PH4 ==> PH2 and I tried every version of firmware I could find on this planet. I have tried OGG. I have tried crashing my installation, then trying to downgrade.
Long story short; If you have an unlocked SM-N920A running Android 6.01 with Nov Security Patch I will definitely be donating to you if you upload. If you aren't a member of this forum I promise you that you are safe. The guys here will help you make a copy of the firmware which will not include your personal information. (Look for the guys with lots of Thanks, listen to them)
So if you are coming in from Google and you are wondering if you can root or downgrade now you know that you can't. I'm a beginner Android Developer who follows directions like a champion, save your time trying to downgrade it is fully blocked by the bootloader.

unlocked SM-920A upload coming soon
