Hi Guys,
I am a novice when it comes to android. I want to root my SGS I9000T and I looked around a lot, but my problem is it seems like it is firmware specific and mine seems to be quire rare.
So here is my firmware specs. If somebody has either the stock files for this version or the files needed to root this version, please provide me of the link. And yes I did look on the samfirmware but it is not there. Or maybe there is a way to root that is not firmware specific?
Any help would be helpful
There is nothing firmware specific about rooting. Just flash speedmod k13e (not k15i thats GB kernel), then boot into recovery and root from the advanced speedmod option. Afterwards you can flash the stock kernel back if you want (It´s the zImage file from your install files) You use a tool called Odin to flash, many tutorials around on how to use it...
Thanks for the reply. I have a question for you: When you flash speedmod do you actually change your firmware? If so, that would be a problem because I cannot find my stock firmware? I am trying to root to be able to nandroid to actually get the firmware.

I already posted the I9000TUBJP9 rom on the other thread it's the official kies download , let me clarify this,if you upgrade to oficial I9000TUBJVE gb you can go back directly to UBJP9 froyo because have the same bootloaders ,but if you flash other rom than the official for the I9000T go back to the stock eclair or gingerbread

No, you change the kernel. You should also be able to root with SuperOneClick, search for it in the forums, you dont have to replace the kernel with this method.

Thanks so much! I am guessing you mistypes, but my current version is I9000TUBJP9 (and this is what the file you gave me says) and the version of GB I will be getting through Kies is UBJV6 (not BJVE), right?
So, if I update to GB and want to go back to UBJP9, all I have to do is flash the only tar file extracted from the files you gave me? The flashing methods I read were talking about pit file, pda files and repartion files. I don't need any of that?

Thanks a lot for the help. I read up about superoneclick and it should work if I decide to stay on Froyo but won't work if I make the jump to GB. I will try to see if the CF method or the oneclick method work for GB. I am assuming I will find a method that will root GB. I did read a little about the supermod you mentioned to me, but I got confused because I found guide to flash it but they said I needed to be rooted .

Well if what you wanted was to move to GB then why the heck didn't you just say that from the beginning and spared us all this useless talk of rooting your phone?? If you dont have a clue about how to do something then its best to say what you want from the get go.
In this case just download whatever firmware you want and flash with Odin, no need to be rooted. Make sure to flash a 850 modem afterwards to get 3G back if you flash a european rom. Check the stickies, plenty of guides on how to flash with Odin and threads with modem files.
Good luck mate.

You can go back and forth with Froyo and GB on Odin with ease. I've done it plenty of times, just make sure that you have repartition checked with the stock files correctly placed in Odin...

Well no need to be nasty! I was pondering if I am going to GB since the first time I did it did not go well, so I am weighing my options. I appreciate that you help me and but I do not appreciate the condescending talk. Everything you guys told me was very useful and I do want to root I was taking one thing at a time.
I read the forum( yes I did) and I have decided that it might be best for me to stay on Froyo for now. and I am planing to root to be able to try other stuff. So again yes you helped me and no it was not useless talk. Thanks again.
Letter I sent to Samsung - of course not helped me:
Hello,
Yesterday was the worst day for me.
i purchased a Samsung galaxy S4 !9505 from i private store.
when i loaded the device for the first time, i got a push update to MH8 (with the knox)
i didn't know whats ahead of me...
yesterday i tried to upgrade the version to a rooted one.
and suddenly, the wifi and the sound in the device stopped working, plus i had problems with incoming/outgoing calls.
finally, i could solve the problem with a modded version of MH8 Pre-rooted, truthfully i don't care about the root anyway.
i just wanted to check what is what, because i'm new to this whole thing.
but now, every time i boot my device, i'm afraid something will happen to it.
besides that, i understand that i can't upgrade any future version anymore, which means for me that my device is half dead already.
i'm asking you, with kind regards, help me restore my phone to its original form, so i could enjoy your updates, and google's as well
my phone is in "knox warrany void: 0x1" state as for now.

There has been a solution to the problem?
Or I got stuck and I can't upgrade?
I'm from Israel, so if you need to flash a modem or something, just so you know
Sorry my english!
Thank you!
somebody please?
Hello,
There are serveral threads about this point, please read around...
You can upgrade to new roms with the ODIN/flashable roms available, or you can set the device status to "official" to receive OTA updates.
The only thing you can't change is the knox 0x01 which is suspected to be an eFuse and therefore non-reversible (nothing 100% confirmed so far)
for questions on how to flash each thing (ODIN packages recovery flashable zips and so on) refer to the specific thread
good luck

If I as usual I upgrade to version 4.3 via Odin official from sammobile (when it is released), the wifi and sound work properly?
And how do I set the device status to "official" to receive OTA updates on my current version?

Hi mate - As it is for know your KNOX warrenty is void....What this means is you will not be able to use the KNOX software/locker/container (whatever you wanna call it).........for the moment this is indeffinate until one of the brilliant minds in xda figures out a way to re-set it (not gonna be easy or anytime soon).....However, your device is not lost.....all you need to do if flash any stock firmware that has the new KNOX bootloader via odin. You can find stock firmware ( you just need to look for it )...Sammobile would be a good place to start maybe? Once you have loaded the firmware you should be able to recieve OTA updates but WILL NOT be able to use KNOX stuff.
Hope this clears some stuff up for you!
EDIT - Even if you have issues via OTA you can always flash the latest firmware via odin!

Yes you can install custom roms - but when you have a custom ROM then you are very unlikely to get OTA updates....which is why odin is a great tool!

I love this forum! I just do not seem much
Before I flash the MH8 Pre-rooted, i flash customs rom (almost everyone), and all was sound and Wifi, know why?
That's why I'm asking and I'm not sure.
For example, I flash the rom costum MH8, and worked (problems Sound-WIFI), and Pre-Rooted worked, why is that?
Thank you!

Could have been kernel related....I am not entirely sure....but this is wavering from your initial opening post - Knox Problem - I Can't upgrade rom - which has been answered.......I would suggest sticking to what you know works and as I said READ ALOT because you are not the only person who has had wifi and sound issues:good:......I believe your initial issue has been answered as much as it can now. Good luck in you search for answers:fingers-crossed:
Last one from me....have you also tried to flash a new modem to fix wifi???? Try looking HERE also!
Rom and LTE modem should be the same build number. GSM modem is region dependent and can be anything you like.

One bit of advice... please work on your English sentence structure (yes it is very bad )
It is an annoying challenge to understand you without repeatedly rereading what your wrote.
Now unto more important things:
1. Please fix your initial problem by returning to stock before you ask more questions.
2. Let us know if everything is working on stock and your device is back to stock form and function.
3. Read the howto documents on this site before you proceed to ask any further questions related to rooting or rom flashing.

Hi,
This is my first time trying to install / flash Cyanogen on my Note 3 SM-n9005.
All I did by now is using Odin for root and firmware updates.
Can someone please tell me if this is correct version for my device?
And how do I flash it ? Does it also done with Odin ? Or is there another process for this ?

If you type your thread name into Google, you'll get plenty of answers. It's best to start there.

Aahh.... 1st time flasher ^^ Long time ago I was the same way Anyways, XDA is a reliable source and you should check here first. If someone tells crap ppl tend to correct him very quickly so you cant be that wrong later. Anyways. Check for TWRP Recovery for HLTE and flash it the way it's explained in the thread. Then you are already very close to CM running on your phone. CM source you posted is fine, but you can check on Temasek's UNOFFICIAL builds too, they are very stable. GAPPS I recommend OpenGAPPS. Just check on my sig to see what I am running right now.
I'll check it out.
Thanks
Just download the latest CM ROM (may be CM 12 or 12.1) with your device model and also download the recommended G apps for your phone and then flash those using Twrp.
Note:-It is recommended to wipe your cache/dalvik/data/system before flashing a ROM for clean installation.

Hey . I'm trying to update the modem & bootloader for my phone. However, I don't know where the modem is. I have 3 files. I suspect the BL_N9005XXUGBPB2_BOOTLOADER.tar goes into BL?
And then AP_N9005XXUGBPB2_RECOVERY.tar and AP_N9005XXUGBPB2_KERNEL.tar.md5 go into AP? Is one of these the modem driver?
In what order should I do this? Especially the 2 AP files... I'm confused about those .
I would like to also mention that my device is currently rooted, uses TWRP. I want to update to a newer TWRP and then from Android 4.4 to Android 5. I suspect that flashing a new recovery and a new kernel will mean that I also have to do that once I've updated my device's modem.
Thank you in advance!
If you download a stock ROM from Sam mobile.com, unzip it to get a tar.md5 file which is flashed in the PDA slot of Odin 3.07. This method takes the guess work out of trying to figure out what goes where.
Uh, I don't really get it. I don't have a stock ROM nor do I want one. I want to install latest modem / bootloader so then I can install an Android 5 ROM.
The recovery and kernel is stock ones so don't need it. But still you have to find a modem. There is a thread in general section.

No worries bro.
You don't need to bother about these two files. Because, none of these is of your use. You are going to try a different ROM from the stock. Hence, you don't need to install Stock Kernel and Recovery. You need custom kernel which either comes with the ROM or you have to adopt a different one according to your need. As you have rooted your phone, you just need to install TWRP Manager from Play store to update your recovery, give it root access and install 2.8.7.0 recovery which is totally reliable at this point. I think it is explanatory enough

use unSU by osm0sis and see if it do the trick
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63615067
if it doesnt, use uninstall option on what root method you use
if it still doesnt work, flash another kernel(should be compatible with the rom youre currently using), or just install another rom(backup important stuff first) without root or go back to stock

You can download the firmware on "Samsung Firmware database" https://samdb.org/
and flash with Odin
Create an account, is better
