How do I downgrade my smg900v 6.0.1? Do I just flash an earlier rom?
Make sure you know your Samsung account sign in info Make sure you backup important data to your computer download ok3 or pb1 firmwares from sammobile. Com then then download odin just Google it then and make sure you download drivers from Verizon website then You flash pb1 or ok3 firmware in Odin to your device Make sure it in put the firmware in ap/pda slot in odin Then click start let it finish it will soft brick so boot to recovery mode and wipe data and cache Then it should boot setup and there you done

Hi. I have a NOTE 4 running ANK4 android 4.4 rooted with CWRP.
My question is: In order to flash a STOCK 5.0.1 tar from sammobile, what are the steps I need to follow?
Do I simply have to get the tar file and flash it through Odin?
Do I have to unroot/remove custom recovery first?
Do I have to factory reset and reset cache?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

hi,
your first question is correct
if you flash you will automatically lose root and recovery.. (no need to unroot and remove custom recovery..)
read my post #2 in this thread.. see link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3068738
for snapshot and more details
lastly it up to you if you want to factory reset etc.. it is not necessary
good luck
Download the file from www.samfirmware.com, make sure you have the CORRECT firmware for your SPECIFIC phone model.
While you are on the download page, there is an instruction, which I copied below:
Instructions:
Extract (unzip) the firmware file
Download Odin v3.09
Extract Odin ZIP file
Open Odin v.3.09
Reboot Phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
Add the firmware file to AP / PDA
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes
You don't need to root or do anything, just MAKE SURE that "Reactivation Lock" under Settings>Security is DE-ACTIVATED.
You don't necessarily have to do a Reset, but if you are having problems with force closing apps, battery drain etc... then do a Reset.
Good luck
Ok I just did that, ODIN said passed but literally nothing happened to the phone? lmao. It still shows android 4.4

You sure you downloaded Lollipop and not another 4.4.4 version?

I'm sorry, I'm a retard. I had a 4.4 backup in case things went south and I flashed that instead of the lollipop. All is good now, lmao.
I made these odin flashable firmwares for those who need them. This is only the stock firmware for Lollipop 5.01 build OB7. (NO system or data partitions) If you need to flash the stock OB7 firmwares then this will do that for you. This will not wipe your system or data.
Once you flash the "OB7-FW.tar.md5" you must reroot and flash a custom recovery if you want to flash custom roms etc. Simply odin flash cf-auto-root and the latest recovery by TWRP and you'll be back in business.
The OB7-modem.tar.md5 requires no extra steps... it's just the modem.
I have tested these packages on my Note 4 running OB7 firmware. Note: If you are on OE1 firmware, you will NOT be able to flash this OB7 firmware successfully due to new security measures in the OE1 bootloader.
OB7-FW.tar.md5 This tar package includes all of the stock OB7 firmware including kernel,modem, recovery, bootloader, etc. Please flash this in odin on your PC ONLY!
OB7-modem.tar.md5 This tar package includes only the modem and HLOS patch. Can be flashed with odin on your pc and also mobile odin.
Gonna try

ive been searching but can you help me put stock 0e1 recovery back on my phone i forgot to factory data reset after i updated to 0e1 and rerooted and now my phone is super buggy and i think its because i didnt wipe on stock recovery which usually fixes my problems. thanks if you can help or not. ive wiped on twrp of course but my stock rooted 0e1 rom just isnt right idk but like i said the stock recovery to me really wipes evrything. ive tried aosp roms but there even more buggy can you please help thanks
No one has it yet
Right. There is no official tar ball available for OE1 firmware. OTA is the only way right now and nobody has pulled and uploaded the update zip for OE1. Im afraid you're gonna have to try the OB7 official rom tar or else you're stuck until a tar pops up somewhere. And that may not happen for OE1.

Thanks for the report. Which software version are you currently on? Extension OB7 or OE1 ??? You must be on OE1 because it flashed successfully on my OB7 software. I will upload another version for you to test.
Yes, I am on OE1, I will gladly test for you. Just keep me posted.
So just to clarify, if I am on KK, I can ODIN this then cf auto root then TWRP? And don't take the update to OE1 because it's not worth it?

Ok, don't mess with this, it's for a different purpose. Read the OP in @tx_dbs_tx 's hybrid X 2.2 rom thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2956667
Read the OP carefully as there is a VERY specific procedure (it's easy) you MUST follow to move up to lollipop.
Stock tar in the OP here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3056478
If you'd rather have a stock rom instead of hybrid x download the stock tar and follow tx's instructions to the T in his Hybrid-X OP before flashing it or any lollipop based rom.
Remember, you MUST flash the stock OB7 tar BEFORE flashing any lollipop rom.
EDIT: If you decide to go stock, do not take the ota. Once you cf-auto-root & odin twrp you won't have to worry about it anymore. The same with Hybrid-X. Once you flash that no more OTA worries.
Did u find the hidden image ??
I'm not going to pursue the OE1 secured bootloader thing. We will have to wait for an official tar ball and rebuild roms from it. Until then I'm staying on my OB7 rom.
I dont quit but thanks for your efforts

Meh sourcecode is out
OTA and Kies show my software is up to date, which isn't true because the phone that was replaced had lollipop...thru an OTA.
Is there a way to force the lollipop update?

PF4 is only rootable if your CID starts with 15.
You can't root mm on s5 Verizon
you have to downgrade using Odin to pb1 or ok3 firmware
Download Samsung drivers from Samsungs website for s5 Verizon
First make a backup with Samsung smart switch or whatever way you prefer
Then backup any other important data to your computer
downloads ok3 or pb1 firmwares from sammobile . Com
Download Odin to your Pc and install it
Connect phone to pc using USB cable flash firmware you downloaded in Odin in ap/ pda slot
If it bootloops boot to recovery and wipe data factory reset and wipe cache
if it still bootloops flash kernel file in odin from JrKruse ok3 root method the download includes ok3 kernel and pb1 kernel
Then go to JrKruse ok3 root method on xda under s5 Verizon section to get root

So i just received a new galaxy s5 and I would like to root if possible. I've seached and it all seems a little confusing. Its an s5 running 6.0.1. Please point me in the right direction if there is a safe rooting method that will still work. I can provide any other information as well. Thank you for your support!
Make a backup in using Samsung smartswitch or Samsung kies 3
Download odin off the Internet
Go to Samsung website and download USB drivers for s5 verizon
Go to Sammobile. Com and download ok3 or pb1 firmware
Boot phone into download mode
Connect phone to pc by USB cable
Open odin in Odin click ap/pda and choose the firmware you downloaded from sammobile. Com and click start
Then wait for your phone to boot if it gets stuck longer than ten minutes boot into recovery and wipe data and cache and reboot
Set up phone once it boots
To get root go to JrKruse ok3 root method on xda under s5 Verizon section
