Hi,
So a while ago I followed a step by step guide to unroot my device.
all that supersu / twrp stuff.
Now I have forgotten everything I did.
So I tried to upgrade my OS to the latest 9 for my One Plus 3, But it keeps failing for some reason.
I want to revert back to stock.
When ever I try to upgrade it fails.
Idk what to do :/
Hi do you still need help

UPDATE: So, I couldn't really wait, went ahead and flashed TWRP. It installed just fine, as long as you get into recovery immediately, TWRP sticks. I flashed SuperSU and rebooted and got into a boot loop, so had to flash the stock firmware again and everything is fine again. No idea why the bootloop, so if some expert knows, please share
-------------------------------------------------------------
So, T-Mobile/Samsung FINALLY delivered 5.1.1 on the P607T and it looks quite awesome so far. My device was rooted and had twrp, so I had to flash with odin and now have neither twrp nor root. While I know that its only a matter of time before the community updates the tools to make it easy for us to root, I wonder if somebody could tell me if its okay to flash the existing twrp_2.8.7.0_4.4 build on this new ROM?
I vaguely recall reading somewhere that with Lollipop, Android moved to a new FS, but suspect this only applies to the system and boot partitions? That flashing recovery should be fine, and worst case, twrp will not stick? But, just in case, it would be great to know if this is true from someone with more experience ... If yes, then I can try to flash twrp and see if SuperSU still works through ODIN.
Thanks!

I tried root/TWRP using the P605 NEE thread method and I get the bootloop. It takes the modified ROM but not the SuperSU. Anyone else get root on P607T 5.1.1 yet?
From what I gather so far, 5.1.1 is rootable, but a bit more complicated than other versions. There are instructions one can follow to 'manually' root (meaning no simple odin flash), but these have not been tested on the Note 10.1 firmware yet and so no guarantees. I am told its just a matter of somebody who knows picking it up and creating a flashable solution, but the device is old and the world has moved on to Android 6.0, so this is not very high priority and we may have to wait a bit more.
The manual instructions, I understand them enough to want to try, BUT am not a developer and am worried about bricking my device! If anybody is brave enough to try,

Sorry, android noob here (just switched onto a 5X on black Friday), but i have twrp installed on my phone and currently run Marshmallow 6.0. I want to upgrade to 6.0.1 but I have no clue how. Is there a way to do it without losing any data and not having to get rid of twrp? Would flashing a ROM of the update work? Thank you for your time.
search, this has been covered dozens of times, there are even stickies that outline step by step on how do it
So I had a 6.0 marshmallow root on my phone. I don't remember how I think I rooted before updating to marshmallow if I recall correctly. Anyway I went to install the hotspot all and I don't know what happened but when my,phone rebooted it completely went back to stock and at marshmallow 6.0. I lost everything. Please help. Explain like I'm five.
I'm... asking for a friend....
But seriously, I tried following the instructions on the "[Guide] Step by Step from Stock N910V 6.0.1 to hsbadr's CyanogenMod 13.0 " thread, intending to bypass them when I got to the point of being able to jump over to the newer roms, and all I got was a boot loop when I tried flashing in 5.1.1. Is it because I'm on a retail 910v or was it a user error kinda thing? I tried multiple times and couldn't get it to boot after the flash, ended up flashing 6.0.1 back just to get my phone back.
I'm also ready to free the bootloader and root this thing. It seems emotion OS is the most popular and up to date now, correct?
I have the CPL1 update from Verizon( Dec patch). I know there are a bunch of threads with how tos, but it's unclear how outdated they are and whether it works with these latest versions. If someone can confirm the best way to go from cp1 to emotion.. Let me know.
Also.. I saw a while ago a guide on how to go to developer edition. Why isn't that front and center anymore? Isn't Dev edition completely unlocked... Why wouldn't I want to convert to dev edition before dealing with any rom changes? If someone can give some clarification I'd appreciate it.
Great news, I went for the plunge and succeeded. Confirmed -> stock and latest version software as of Jan 20 2017 (CPL1) can be downgraded to 5.1.1, rooted, TWRPed, and blah blah. I used the same guide you mentioned at top (hsbadr's CM13 guide), except i stopped at step 52 and continued to install emotion OS instead. Highly recommend it.
I'm on EmotionOS now. Wow, it was really worth it. So smooth compared to touchwiz 6.0.1. Haven't found a bug yet, but even if i do, i won't care.
I'm not sure what you mean "when i got to the point of installing newer roms". If you got to that point, why were you trying to flash 5.1.1 again?
How did you root it? I flashed mine back to 5.1.1, but I'm not having any luck rooting.

Follow the guide. You are going to go through a complicated process using the king root apk. I think the guide makes you use king root 3 times total to accomplish various parts of the process. King root loads up and spins for a few minutes, eventually succeeds, then you gotta punch in some things to command line using adb. I believe this is rooting your phone a few times.
Eventually you end up with twrp bootloader and jasmine Rom and everything just sticks.
So far.. The only annoying thing with emotion is that I lost volte and video calling. Maybe they'll bring it in one day.
I watched a few videos on YouTube on how to upgrade the Android O/S but none of them mentioned that it needs to unlock the bootloader 1st.
So before I found out that I need to unlock it I tried installing ROM before I knew that.
The phone came with Android Kitkat 4.4.2 and there is an official Lollipop for it that I want to install.
The device is rooted with Kingroot.
I tried the installations two times and the phone still works but I can no longer boot into recovery mode or fastboot mode. It just hangs and then I need to remove the battery to get it to work again.
I just want to restore it back to what it was before and then I will work on unlocking the bootloader.
I prefer to use tools that are free of cost.
Issue has been resolved.
I flashed the device with a pac file using SPD upgrade tool and now all is back to default.

Hi. I recently messed up my phone (Y560-U02)! Please help me.
Can you please tell me where I can find the "pac file" and "SPD upgrade tool"?

You meant un-official, right?
Sorry for the delay. I check the linked email once per month.
Do you still need help on this?
I thought that it was official Lollipop. But it does not exist for this phone.
Yes I can help you get it to what ever you need but it is not easy if you want to do more than just resorted it back to default.
I will tell you more if you still need it.
