You must lock your bootloader otherwise OTA update will fail to install.
A new patching process is added on Lollipop update.

I'm not sure I have unrooted my phone correctly. I just flashed the stock recovery img and unrooted my phone from super su app that's it, but the phone works fine no problems but in the recovery there is a red triangle with this "!" Symbol is that normal or I have to lock the bootloader properly....

Lollipop zip
I called the customer care today.. They said that updates will be released by the end of February. I don't believe them unless I get the update.. Meanwhile I found this zip. This is the zip of android one lollipop 5.1 extracted from Indonesian android one phone. Finally we got the zip which is flashable on our phones. You can find it HERE

Don't flash this just wait for some more days
We will get update grom 4th March if I am not wrong.
Tested right before replacing my N7 (v1)...
After upgrading to latest API4 "Green Battery" Update...
Confirmed:
- Unable to Odin Sprint "Root" Firmware...
- Unable to downgrade to APGC...
Result...
No root & stuck with API4... (Not bricked)
so... in other words... IF you want root... stay with APGC and simply wait for an API4 ROM... (with APGC bootloader)
Get the new phone... and DO NOT update...

To make it easier to identify version 2 phones.

The API4 update is available to V1 phones. I took it, knowing I'd be getting a new phone in a couple of days.
As I understand it, they'll make you take it one way or the other.
i can confirm do not update your v2 note 7 to the new firmware. you cannot downgrade and they have blocked the sprint userdebug firmware from even flashing.
if you want to keep root. don't do it.
wht are the chances that the update comes straight from the box..
It does bro....i got mines today and it automatically started down loading...i just asked this question to @jovy23 in another thread
Yep, mine installed right out of the box. what a bunch of a-holes. wifes did the same thing, no root now welp, perhaps its time to return it and buy a different phone. this is retarded.

Saw someone mention it, and will try the same, but boot without sim card and wifif then disable the update app.....root then add sim.
Hopefully that will work cause I need my root. Dammit Samsung how dare you "burn" us again !!!

as long as the phones don't come preinstalled then it's fine.
Well... I just updated to API4 intentionally, to try out the new update on my v1 device. I gotta say it's much more snappier now and lag is completely gone after it fully boots everything. But it's still not worth losing root over. So I'm either gonna get a refund or buy the international version, better yet might just say goodbye to sammy all together.
I don't know why anyone is still surprised about non-Nexus devices being locked down. Sure, a device might get root access, but it's the OEMs job to fix it in future builds because it's an exploit that needs to be fixed.
My update downloaded but I disabled, anyone know where the update file is? What folder? I can't find it.
the update ran as soon as it connected to their wifi network to set up the phone. crap, can't root now.

Same here, it downloads on its own but it can be postponed up to 3 times before it automatically installs the update, so what do I have to disable so the update won't install, or where can i find the update and delete that sob? Any info would be much appreciated as I don't have access to a computer to root or have the time at this very moment.

You can go into settings and turn off auto updates, or download package disabler from the play store and disable the 2 software updates lines. I still have a v1 phone and no update here because of that
Hi All,
I'm a little confused as to where us U firmware users stand with Nougat. I've seen differing reports of what the known plan is with this. I believe some are saying we're waiting for Verizon to release it to the 935u, otherwise I'm reading that we're on a quarterly update schedule and won't be seeing anything until April.
I bought my 935V from VZW and flashed over to unrooted U firmware - actually by using the normal flash method and then doing a firmware restore from verizon's utility to get full unroot. Not exactly a typical method, but it gave me peace of mind knowing everything is completely stock U.
Everything is running great so I'm not in urgent need of an update for any reason, but would like to see some new features.
Lemme know if anyone has any clues here as for what to expect. Thanks in advance!
Not exactly sure what you mean by going full "unroot".. unless you ment, you wanted the U firmware for a smoother "root" can you please clarify bubby?

Good to know. Thanks.
I had to root in order to flash U FW, but the root process we have for GS7 is really process heavy and battery draining. I wanted an unrooted version of the U firmware with no bullsh*t and good battery life so I unrooted and restored using the software tool.

Ah Gotcha, sorry I misunderstood the op. Maybe give the T or V carrier FW a spin till U gets released? I haven't upgraded yet but am tempted. Been using stang 5.0 rom and been pretty impressed. I'd say I would recommend it even with the faults of the eng boot.
I also believe I seen a "no root no bull**** playstore Nougat rom" by jkruse, or something to that effect. If that's something your into
Lots of cry babies over in the Samsung forums. I can see why everyone is so upset but Samsung never promised faster updates for unlocked variants over carrier models. I'm content waiting at least until April for the nougat release of the 935u. Screw Verizon bloat. It's not worth putting up with it for Nougat.
There are some articles with Samsung's new commitment for monthly security updates on unlocked devices. This should mean that the 935U will get Nougat this month with March security update.

Well, sorta agree with you. I'm patiently waiting for the U update to 7.0, but in the mean time I'm running the Verizon update on a backup device. I can't really enjoy 6.0.1's UI after having Grace UX.

Yes i have the original UDP and the tethering option works. How ever i cant get the verizon video calling to work??
So from what I'm getting, to install (if I'm on Verizon Nougat), flash Unlocked 6.0 first, then smart switch to 7.0? Also, I read that someone had been having issues with using LTE while in a phone call, can anyone confirm? And what happened to all the other fix files, since I remember the first time flashing the unlocked software required more subsequent flashes as well.

One would then assume that the dirty-cow method will no longer work. It was supposed to have been patched as early as Nov security patch, so I guess new updates to V8 will have no root yet.
Maybe Chainfire's FlashFire could help? Search for eu.chainfire.flash in the Google Play Store.

Official OTA. Phone's all stock.
Is there way to do install this new firmware 8.3 unmodified as sent from manufacturer thru OTA if my phone is already modified? Is Wireless Update app safe to do upgrade to 8.3?
Few month ago I used Dirty Cow on 6.6 to root and unlock bootloader, I then installed TWRP and from TWRP I installed modified 7.4.2 from vampireinfo thread, the one without preloader_p6601.bin, lk.bin, logo.bin, secro.img, trustzone.bin, uboot.img and without Amazon apps and adds.
Seeing this device is no longer supported I would like to revert to factory ROM to have up to date and working phone. I don care about SuperSu or rooted phone, this is useless.

The only way to go back unmodified is to go back to locked bootloader, stock recovery, and stock rom first. It's an unchangeable path. Because going that way will change the preloader(take away sp flash tool as a means of unbricking)
And then if the update goes "side ways" could be a problem.
But possible if you want to.
Outline of what's needed- not realy a step by step tutorial.
1. Make sure sp flash tool is working.
If not working because of previous update, need to go forward in order to go back.
What I mean is, more modification ,by rolling back preloader.
2. Flash an oob (out of box) backup
3. Take official updates, and hope things do not brick.
OR
Wait a day or two, and the update will be made available to be flashed in twrp.
I have already made the system update work in v17, flashed in twrp, next will be test out the boot.img update, then change it from a patch update into a rom.
Your choice.
**UPDATE**
Full rom install complete

I don't think we lost root , it you have it already. But it you don't Already have root the security update pass the November date you loose the dirty-cow exploit. And without that the way we unlock bootloader is lost. And you need to be able to do that , to install recovery, etc, etc.

What ever version people are on is the only patch that will work for that device you can't mix and match patches cause they simply won't apply.
The patches check the hashes and only applies to apps, and binaries that match.
While you could apply 7.4.2 to V17 only a small part would apply, basically not worth the effort.
Hopefully people using different versions captured their update and uploads it, would be nice to have version from every version that got an update.

Right.
I had to install v7.4.2 to apply patches. I tried to just apply patches to the boot.img on the ext-sd card (tried following an old apply-patch guide) but had trouble because the sha1 of the boot.img when it was not on the boot partition did not match. (Over my head this morning)
So I have the patch working and booting for 7.4.2 without the preloader change.
I would like to make it a rom.zip instead if a patch. As soon as I know how to do that will upload.
The new update has added this interesting privacy policy to the setup. And by default it is set to allow sharing data with Blu.
Has anyone with the 1687 retus received the OTA containing the July security update? I am currently rooted with a custom kernel and TWRP flashed stock ROM so I know I won't see the OTA, but I don't want to go through the trouble of going back to stock and finding out it isn't even available for my device yet.
It wil take a month or so before it really comes. Moto has this thing where they post it, but in reality it takes a while before they rol the OTA.
