thats not only changing the letter. thats a FULL phone version. KDZs are restore files. they overwrite EVERYTHING on the phone with what you update it to. so not only will it say v10d but itll also now say sea instead of twn. it will overwrite your modem, apns, pretty much EVERYTHING on the phone. my previous statement still stands. best case nothing. worst case brick.

Oh, I think you do.
I think I do too.
Am I a bad person for wanting to see what happens when you deliberately force something where it doesn't belong?
guys, is there a reason why you have to be so cryptic about it?
nobody is forcing you to reply to a post, if you think it's a too stupid question to put up with.
if you want to help just feel free to, otherwise just stop replying all annoyed. it's THAT easy.

btw I've just remembered there was a guy who actually replaced the twn firmware with the AUS one, check this out:

Then by all means, if you feel you know your device better than the person who exploited the holes needed to bootloader' unlock and root your device, have at it.
Quite frankly, I'm curious too.
I just think I know better than to intentionally flash software that has no business being on my phone.
*Your* device?
Do what you want.
Otherwise I think me2151's original answer still fits - best case, nothing. Second best, no service. Worst case, you trashed your phone and it's now permanently useless.
I've done, i share the results

nope, that's the way you want to read into my words.
all I meant to say was: you don't need to reply all annoyed to someone asking for some information. it wasn't even one of those questions you see asked over and over again. but from the first post you guys had to act all tough and douche.
you think it's something dangerous to do? just say careful, I would advise against doing it. you don't care to help? just shush.

Will it disable OTA updates after that ?
Will it affect radio signaling ?
Will it wipe data through the process ?

I did more research on the matter, and some people said it was the kernel which could be fixed by placing a code somewhere. I don't know how lol.
Also the guy I did research on was saying that his MAC address started with 00:90:4c then random string every reboot!
I tried the factory wipe, and the same thing keeps happening.
How do I do a re-install of the OS? I think that will do it.
This actually should not be possible, given the MAC address is a physical attribute (although ofc you could use software to mask it). Guess your kernel must be reading it wrong. To my knowledge, it's not like 2.4GHz/5GHz have separate MACs.

Depends. Nothing stock should be acting up like that, so you could try a backup/factory reset, or if you're en route to root, then flashing a different kernel would probably help.

Yeah I did a back/factory reset already. I don't really like rooting because I don't know how to maximize the benefits.
Send back to RMA? lol
OR maybe root and unroot back to stock?

The first link in that post really is just saying to make sure you have the most recent updates to the drivers and SDK, as these are the tools with which to perform the task. Some people had old versions already installed, so its also a reminder to make sure they are updated. Some aspects of the SDK prompt people to update, but running the SDK manager to force the update check is the best bet.
Then yeah, the second link has most of the true steps/content to do the re-install.

Well I'm somewhat sure that the SDK is the latest because I just got it back from RMA, and they put a new MOBO in it.

A little confusion - the SDK is the software development kit, so its just the software you have on your PC. (Not related to the firmware or anything on your tablet its self.)
For example, if you never had it on your PC you'd get it at http://developer.android.com/sdk/
But then people don't realize you should still run the updater for that title, because it can have very recent updates.
You have to use a Windows executable in the process called fastboot.exe
Some old versions of fastboot.exe don't have all the features that the newer fastboot.exe's do...
:good:

Yeah I'm not that good when it comes to these things. I know this is kind of asking a lot, but could you make a step by step to what I need to do? For example, 1. download SDK tool, 2. update tool, 3. stop being a noob lol

first boot does take a long time, due to art
after that it should speed through every time
That's the thing with ART, when apps need to bu rebuilt, it takes a good 5-10 minutes... 240/309 now.

I've been dodging installing the PJ1 update for a while. I went and checked, and it has the same line: "remaining updates: 0" I don't think we can assume that Samsung is going to stop updating our Note 4s. Whether they'll give us Nougat, well, that's another question. But I'll bet they keep giving us the security updates a while longer.
remaining updates have absolutely nothing to do with whether or not the device is still being supported. it is an indication of how many updates remain before you're "up to date." for example, if you were to flash PH4, then update, you'd have that number go from 0 to however many updates will get you to PL1

No noticeable changes, maybe somethings related to performance only.

@aaron74 is it possible to get Grace UX on stock or deodex MM for N910P?

Short answer: No
I guess anything is possible, but because Grace is not a specific thing. It's the whole look and feel of the rom. So you'd have to rewrite and edit every aspect of the rom, because I assume samsung builds their rom around grace.
So this would be too much work for anyone.
So really only viable way to get Grace, is you just port a Grace rom. Hence the Note 7 ports.
Hope that answers you question. Best way i can explain it and understand it myself.
This will be the last update we will ever get!
Does anyone know if this update has locked the bootloader?

You have an inside line on this or just a feeling?
bootloader still unlocked, now I want to know if I can flash any MM roms on this PL1 baseband and software
can someone upload the zip?
Well, ****. My dumbass updated to PL1, then wiped the hell out of everything and now it won't let me revert to PK1....and there's no PL1 stock out there yet haha.
Does anyone know which samsung software we're supposed to use on these? i've tried kies 2.6, 3 and smart switch....none are working.....multiple PCs with fresh drivers, still nothing :/ I'm afraid i'm screwed until someone uploads a copy of PL1....and even then, who knows lol

Update- tried flashing PK1 again thru ODIN....this time it got about 70% of the way thru flashing system.img.ext4 and then failed, kinda random.......but that's progress, right? Just means i need to keep trying i hope...

--Further update--
So, relentlessly, I kept attempting....different USB ports, different cables, etc, and finally it worked 100%. Had to install TWRP, and reboot a few times cuz it got stuck, but....IT WORKED
What's wrong with Pl1, mines working great

I can't count how many installs I've had fail due to crappy USB cords. You fight with it thinking it's software and then it dawns on you, wait maybe it's this cable that's only a few months old! I'm no IPhone fan, but they did it right with their phone cable port.
Also I thought I had read somewhere that you need to use your USB 2.0 port as sometimes that is an issue as well.

I know USB 2.0 was a common recommendation a while back but recently read that USB 3.1 is backward compatible. Perhaps 3.0 is too but I was looking for latest.
Recently built a modular PC and got an USB adapter, if needed, but didn't need it. Last Odin session was Windows 10, did not run as administrator, used original Note 4 USB cable, USB 3.1 and USB driver downloaded from Samsung support for Note 4 which passed without issue. Flashed PJ1 stock tar (verified md5 from AFH upload by @LMMT from stock thread in general forum) using Odin 3.12.3 with Odin defaults.

TWRP flash was with auto reboot option unchecked.

Motherboard is Gigabyte if that makes any difference.
Yeah, I get the frustration you're facing, I've dealt with it too. But my PC was 2009 era, not modular for component swapping and seriously needed replacing. Good news is Note 4 is compatible with updated PC and Windows 10.

I'm thinking maybe nothing's wrong with PL1....this phone I have is apparently a victim of the widespread Note 4 eMMC error :/
In other words, flashing back to PK1 didn't fix it for me. random reboots, and frequent boot failures requiring extended battery pulls.
Still not convinced it's a hardware failure.... but that's probably due to my ignorance and optimism lol. No one seems to have truly found a fix-all for this :/

does dirty santa work on the att version with the dec. security update
Any way to increase resolution on youtube from 720p to 1080 or better?
I have a question, and please beware that I am a complete idiot when it comes to technology, so if someone can help me, please talk to me like you are speaking to a kindergartener!
Ok I've had my phone since the first week of December. Have never had any problems communicating to anyone - call, txt, FB, msngr, etc. For the past couple days, I have 1 contact who can txt me, call me, I can call him, but he does not receive my texts. I've tried another site like this, but nobody answered me. While this is not dire, it is extremely frustrating as we are not able to drop what we are doing at work to call the other. I've tried everything (I think) and truth be told, I've pushed so many dang buttons I probably have this whole phone out of sorts. Oh, we are both with Verizon. We both have android devices. Any suggestions, ideas? Thank you!

Do you have to have a lock set up on the lock screen in order to be able to use finger print sensor? I want to use the fingerprint login for specific apps - Lastpass, bank etc. But I don't want to have my phone locked with anything more than a swipe. It seems whenever I disable locking on the lock screen, it also deletes my fingerprints. Is there a solution to this limitation?
anyway to install just twrp and no root?
I wanna do this so that i can use my work email (required non root)
Question.. I am on Team Devdigitel's rooted stock ROM.
Anything we have to specifically back up in TWRP before making customizations? Flashing mods, changes for system UI, etc. Is the backup and restore process the same as it was with my galaxy? I ask because LG seems to be doing things so different lol. Thanks

V20 boot
Hello, I have a v20 and its rooted, when it boots it gives me the " your phone can't be trusted" screen. I was wondering if there is a way to get rid of that screen without unrooting?

what version do you have? att, vzw, sprint? and were there any errors when you did the dirty santa unlock method?
Hi, I just ordered an unlocked H990DS from Australia. Of course it will come with that region code. LG-firmwares .com doesn't have firmware for my region.
Does the region affect the performance/bands or anything of the phone, or only which languages are available?
What other effect would having the wrong region firmware have?
thanks, Edwin

I think it would generally affect the bands and the language but im not entirely sure. What region are you thinking about putting on it?
Is there a way to set the wide angle camera as the default camera so that 3rd party apps use the wide angle rear camera instead of the current primary?
V20 from tmobile (h918) not working with cricket sim
Hi everyone I just purchases this confirmed unlocked device from ebay and I'm not getting any service on cricket. It works when I tried with an Att sim card, or a foreign sim. I changed all the settings and still no luck. It's strange because when I put my cricket wireless sim I no service (it shows that it is searching for service) but the phone shows I have voice messages and the settings page shows my phone number. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I am doing that, and quite happy with the results, using Finger Security.
