| TROUBLESHOOTING |
==================
Q: Later rooting my WiFi isn't working.
A: Some people are having bug with the incorrect modem driver existence installed during root. If you are having this problem you can wink over JUST THE MODEM DRIVER to your phone. This can be done AFTER rooting. There is no need to repeat the whole process over. This is done past connecting your phone to your PC and using ODIN to wink over the correct modem driver. For the Verizon phone the BPA1 driver is the correct one,
attempt flashing this ane start. If you have a refurbished phone information technology'south possible you take a different modem installed. I have also included the link to all the other types of modem drivers below.Link for BPA1 Modem Commuter: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24411628330026133Link for ALL Modem Drivers: https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...mware-firmware-kernel-modem-recovery-t2942937
Q: I can't see my SIM carte and/or can't see anything in my rooted phone's Service Carte.
A: For anyone who can't see their SIM carte AND can't see anything in their rooted telephone'south Service Card I constitute the solution for both problems later putting together tidbits from many threads here on XDA and elsewhere. The directions in the OP install generally BPA1 Rom firmware merely leave some BOG5 firmware. I updated the BOG5 modem to BPA1 modem firmware (with Odin) and the IMEI came back to the original sticker IMEI, the CSC and phone # and ability to see the SIM menu returned. In the process of trying to solve this problem I institute the subconscious Service Menu could non be seen. After flashing the BPA1 modem the Service Menu too reappeared. Click here for mail service with a more than detailed solution.[Reply submitted by: droidzer1]
Q: I'k stuck in a bootloop from flashing to 5.1.1 firmware and/or tin't become out of bootloop by pulling the battery.

wipe enshroud and full factory reset (WARNING THIS Will ERASE ALL YOUR Data but it will save your phone. Use as LAST resort!).Q: I'thousand stuck in a bootloop after installing TWRP.
A: Return back to TWRP by pulling the bombardment then reinserting it. Ability back upward the phone by property [Volume Upward + Home Push + Power Button]. When the writing appears in the upper left release the power push while notwithstanding holding [Volume Up + Power Button]. This will bring you back to TWRP. At this bespeak brand sure your SD Card has been wiped (formatted to FAT32). Effort removing the SD Card and reinstalling "systemonlyN910V-v.i.ane.tar" with Odin3.
Afterwards you have reinstalled the firmware make sure you don't let TWRP install SuperSU automatically. You will only do this manually as stated in step 39.
Q: My phone crashed, I don't know what to practice and nothing else is working.
A: Pull your battery and showtime phone back up property: [Volume Up + Habitation Button + Ability Push button]. If TWRP is nevertheless on phone then go to "Reboot" then "Download". Connect your phone to the PC. Open Odin3 on the PC and flash a REGULAR STOCK firmware onto phone (links located below). This will revert it dorsum to stock with everything it needs.
Q: Later typing: "adb device" (without quotations) in the command prompt it says "offline" or cipher appears under "devices".

Y'all tin utilize this guide for any version. However if Youarent currently running 5.i.ane then you will need to wink your firmware to 5.i.ane using odin3. The firmware and odin3 are included in the install file at the tiptop of the guide. A link to video instructions on how to use odin3 and flash to five.1.ane is at the bottom of the guide.does this apply to all versions? Iam currently on 5.0.1
- #vi
I had 6.0.1 too. But download the v.i.one firmware (located in the included nothing file or from the xda forum link in the bottom) and use odin3 to flash back to 5.1.1. Only be aware that y'all will lose all your data and then practice a back up first.
- #7
I started by downgrading to the firmware included in your package, I then systematically tried Kingoroot and Kingroot. I started with PC versions then tried apks. I have run all 4 variations of the procedure 15 times and I have withal to obtain root. any idea what could be property me back?

For me it was the same.So i tried it after kingoroot said it was rooted but root checker twice said no root.That worked for me.Hope they may a guide like this to become to half-dozen.0.1 and proceed root.I'm on stock five.1.1 its a picayune unstable but i have root weee .Oh it took almost 12 hours to get information technology to this signal.
- #ix
If you're having trouble getting temp root with kingoroot/kingoroot you lot can likewise effort their PC version which attempts root through the PC via a USB cable. You can also try alternate version to the kingOroot programs by googling for alternatives. Unfortunately the temp root part of the process is the most unstable. For some reason one of those apps (whether through the PC or phone) seems to work ameliorate for some peoples phones compared to others. Some other thing I realized is that if your phone starts to become hot from to many attempts information technology'due south best to remove the battery, let it cool downward a litter and and then attempt once again.I started by downgrading to the firmware included in your package, I then systematically tried Kingoroot and Kingroot. I started with PC versions then tried apks. I take run all iv variations of the process xv times and I take yet to obtain root. whatever idea what could be property me back?
Also make certain you practise a total factory reset and clear all your enshroud Before flashing to stock 5.1.1. I would try to do the factory reset, clear everything, and so reflash stock 5.1.1. After that make sure you're continued to wifi and effort the rooting methods again to encounter if you accept ameliorate luck.
Allow us know what works for you in example anyone else in the future reads this with a similar problem.
- #10
Update: your solution worked flawlessly on the first endeavor with kingoroot. Cheers!
At present the effect I arrive at is "1|[electronic mail protected]:/information/local/tmp $ chown root.root samsung_unlock_n4-gear up
chown: samsung_unlock_n4-set: Operation non permitted"
- #xi
...Hope they may a guide like this to get to 6.0.1 and go along root.I'chiliad on stock v.i.i its a petty unstable merely i take root weee .Oh information technology took about 12 hours to go it to this betoken.
Every bit of now(equally far as I know) at that place is no way to root from 6.0.1. However once you take rooted on five.1.1 there are many custom ROMS that use 6.0.1 interface and options. Flashing different kernels and ROMS are what volition open your telephone up to all the possibilities.
As presently as I root a phone the first affair I do is prepare information technology upward the way I similar it with the stock firmware. Then I make a backup in case I demand to become back and then commencement messing around with dissimilar ROMS and Kernels to find what I like. In that location is even a ROM out that turns your phone into a Note 7! I've also read you lot can flash the 6.0.1 firmware of the Note four that is fabricated to run on different carriers like Dart.

Oh one thing I just realized is make sure you are doing the steps correctly when you run Minimal ADP and Fastboot. The lines of code I put up in the guide that you blazon into the command window doesn't prove the last line when you inject the "N4" file. You need to curlicue down to meet it. Make certain you lot didn't miss doing that command. Also try running Minimal ADP as an administrator past right clicking the .exe file and selecting "Run every bit administrator". That might help too.

The lines of code I put up in the guide that you type into the control window doesn't show the last line when you inject the "N4" file. You demand to ringlet downwardly to see information technology. Make sure yous didn't miss doing that command. Also try running Minimal ADP as an administrator by right clicking the .exe file and selecting "Run as administrator". That might assist as well.
That is the fault I made. The omitting the last command in the sequence. Thank you for pointing information technology out!

Is there another way to download files.. seven hrs to download one is a flake looooooooooooong
Yep I know, I'm deplorable about that but that website is the only ane I could notice that would host a 4 GB file for costless. If you lot know of another site please let me know and I'll upload it in that location. As well if you lot want me to identify information technology in a google drive account or Dropbox that yous accept I'd be happy to practise that too (unfortunately I don't have enough room in my own). If y'all'd be willing to share it with the community even better!
Alternatively almost everyone of the files can be found separately online by googling the name. Most are on the xda forum. Any that are not have a description side by side to information technology and can be found in one of the video tutorials or forums from the link at the bottom of the guide.

give thanks you
I have trouble in adbUnable to open samsung_unlock_n4-fix: No such file or directory
and samsung_unlock_n4-set in binder adb ?
When you install the program "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" information technology will make a folder for itself where your other programs are located. You demand to place the "samsung_unlock_n4-set" file in that same folder. That is where information technology will expect for the file and is the reason you lot are getting the bulletin "No such file or directory".
At the acme of the guide, nether Files Needed For Root this is explained in #iii. The comment says: "place this file in the install directory of "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" (Usually C:\Plan Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot.)"

36) Using Odin3 click the "AP" button and select the "systemonlyN910V-5.ane.1.tar" file. And then click "First" to wink the firmware. *Of import!* TRIPLE Cheque that you lot are choosing the right .tar file!! If you flash the wrong 1 you will lose root and have to start all over once more.
I didn't know you could upgrade firmware without losing root. This will save me quite a scrap of fourth dimension. I'm on 5.0.1 with root and want to upgrade.

Thanks, Geno
Be enlightened y'all can just upgrade to 5.i.1 at the moment because that is a special version of the firmware. It has the kick loader removed which is why information technology is called " systemonly N910V-51.ane.tar". Considering the boot loader is removed you still keep TWRP and root access. If you effort to flash a stock version of 5.1.1 or any other firmware you would LOSE root.
