If you're hit with the 60% (as we are in the 60% thread ^^) it's not that complicated. Even for the dead update we still have solutions, however that's more tricky. Come to alliancex.org However, our friends in Canada are quite lost, but that's a carriers thing...

Seems you forgot to set the OEM unlock switch to 'on' or tampered with in any way. The only way to get your phone back working is to flash an original stock rom. Which one is working depends on the original frimware level you had before (exact firmware code needed), since you can't downgrade to...

Since it's a SM-N930T with snapdragon processor there is NO custom rom. Look at alliancex.org, we have alliance shield x, an app to block the unwanted updates and more. Just register and follow this link: https://alliancex.org/viewtopic.php?t=2447 If you have further questions, just ask.

Just create an account, make a share with r/w permissions and send the credentials to me as pm, then I can upload this stuff ;)

It's a baseband 3 one (see the N930FXXU3BPL1) in your screenshot. So the stock rom to flash has to be baseband 3 too, cause of the e-fuse. I have the N930FXXU3BPL2 stock files (baseband 3, with 30% battery charging limit). However, it will work to reboot into stock after flashing and enable OEM...

To help you, it would be good to know what was the exact firmware your friend had before he tried to install the custom ROM (at least if it was a baseband 1, 2 or 3 one). Have several stock ROMs for N7, so maybe one could help you.

It will protect you from any firmware update, as long as you don't deactivate or uninstall the shield.

Since it's a SM-930F exynos based model, custom recovery / root / custom rom (e.g. Hydra) is already available. The problem could be the current battery charging status. Not sure if flashing of custom recovery / rom will work that way. You can try while connecting to an usb port with extended...

We made enhancements to the site, new URL is: https://www.alliancex.org after registering and login, direct link to the app is: https://alliancex.org/viewtopic.php?t=2447

With other device like S7 Edge you can even use our shield v1 (including full working package disabler).

You've got a pm ;)

Assuming that it is a SM-N930F model you can install custom recovery / root / custom rom if you like, for example this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-7/development/rom-hydra-rom-v1-0-t3447611 I'm sure any carrier lock is gone after doing this. But make sure before you start this...

Even with white battery no root possible for snapdragon models if updated after first fw release cause of locked bootloader. International users still have possibilities there. Chinese snapdragons with unlocked bootloader and of course Exynos based models, where custom recovery / root /...

You can revert a tmobile Note hit with the 60% update to get back 100%, but can't revert the 0% update, as downgrading this to an earlier firmware is blocked by Samsung with some E-Fuse. So if you are at 0%, no way. Rooting not possible for any snapdragon based Note 7 (as the tmobile model is)...

Just sent you a pm.

No need to give up your Note 7 is you just want to use GearVR. Install custom recovery, root, then install custom rom like Hydra. All done. With Hydra your Note claims to be S7Edge, and Oculus and GearVR will work fine. If you prefer stock rom with root, or other custom rom, just edit the...

We have a working app at N7A. Not a package disabler, but effictively blocking the bricking updates. Sent you an invitation link. Try it. It's free to use.

So you can try to go back to stock, but not with the version you tried. Your device is on baseband 3 "device 3" you wrote above, and you try to flash a baseband 1 stock "binary 1". This is prevented by some efuse, as it would be a downgrade to lower baseband rom. You've to look for a baseband 3...

License can be checked while opening it, and so they can void purchased license for older versions than 7. Didn't hear that invalidated license would activate the disabled packages so far, but who knwos for the future... You can protect your pdp from this by: 1. Disable wifi and mobile data...

Some reports say that they stay, but not not sure if this works permanently. If you want to check, use debloater so see, if they are hidden (blocked from working). Even if debloater wouldn't work for you for changing anything, you can see, what is blocked and what is not. To be safe, just pm...

It will maybe some inconvenient but you could carry a second phone with you, setting up a wireless hotspot and connect to this hotspot with your Note. Then you can use a voip service like skype. It's possible to buy a phone number from them and to make a call redirection from your second phone...

Didn't find limitation until now, but didn't try to deactivate more than 8 packages so far.

Don't mix up PDP and S package disabler. The last one doesn't need to activate: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0c6ZaGr79eTUGRFWWdOMVRSODQ/view

There were reports that the Ultimate Tool was updated too and no longer will work as needed. But S Package disabler still works, does not update itself in any way, and didn't bring unwanted effects so far. So if one hasn't a working PDP 6.3, it should be a good alternative.

There are several reasons for people to keep the device: - They would miss functions that no other actual device has, like S-PEN - They pretty much love their device - They don't believe in exaggerated horror "news" by sensation media about "exploding" devices - They don't want to be told...

Possibly they locked the bootloader together with the 30% update. So you can't install custom recovery like TWRP (as you need an unlocked bootloader) and this way also no custom recovery. The snapdragon versions were already hit by this locking in September I think. For today, you have bad...

A lot of useful information you can find here: (start reading with post #204) http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-7/help/dont-update-package-disabler-pro-want-t3489243/page21 If the ADB method doesn't work for you try blocking the relavant packages with this tool...

Maybe, if the battery charging level is sufficient to operate and you do not disconnect the charger. I remember the first recall with 60% that you could bring to 80% in the extended settings. As long i had the charger connected the battery level didn't decrease. But you just have a nice...

The developer changed the activating procedure, so if you purchased version 7 you cannot activate 6.3 anymore. Some other people reported that they were blackmailed by sammy to cripple their own app otherwise sammy would enforce google to kick them off from play store... Similar for EZ package...

Hope it works now: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0c6ZaGr79eTUGRFWWdOMVRSODQ/view or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ultimate.tool.forsamsung There was an evil editor between... ^^

Of course they can if they want to. You can assume that blacklists are exchanged, at least within your country, so it really doesn't matter what sim card you have. Blacklisting has nothing to do with update packages but with IMEI and/or phone model id. And to fix this is another kind of thing...

That sounds weird. However, I don't allow PDP any internet access. One possibilty is, do deactivate wifi and mobile data before opening PDP to change sth. and to activate again after closing PDP. So it can't "phone home" to look if there is an update. As a second line of defense I use an...

What about skype? You can get a phone number from then, put your sim card in the device using as hotspot, and then make a permanent call redirection to your skype number with the skype app installed on the note. Depending on your rate it may or may not have additional costs for the...

Afaik the bluetooth sim adapters have no own IMEI. So probably the original one from the phone will be presented to the network. Furthermore, a lot of those adapters only support 2G mode for mobile internet access. Only a few already support 3G/4G. So for acceptable data access you will need...

The easiest way, but maybe uncomfortable, is to take an addidional phone (not a Note 7) with you. Can be a simple one, but must offer mobile hotspot feature. Put your simcard inside, activate mobile hotspot, connect to this hotspot with your Note 7 and you can make and receive calls via any...

Well, i wrote it's suspicious... Do you have any further information what kind of malware comes with it (data spy, botnet...)? In Germany you won't find the app in play store at all. But: The same app with another name you can get in German playstore. Here it is called: Ultimate Tools for...

Just wrote the other reply .:) Well, i put it onto sdcard, allowed install from unknown sources, accepted the demand for device administrator rights (as any package disabler demands), intentionally ignored the warning from my avast av that it is suspicious and clicked on activate while...

As i wrote above i use this with a test device, but just for half a day. So it's way too early to say if this is dangerous in any way. It works as described and can diasble apps. As i was searching the web, i couldn't find at play store, but this can be due to geoblocking from google, or from a...

For you and those who have a working pdp 6.3 and earlier, it's good idea to stop wifi and mobile data before launching this app. For me, i do something more and use an extra firewall to block packages and apps from internet access. And so pdp hasn't internet access and it works! The only way...

That's sad. But i wonder if you can find another provider's firmware or a provider free firmware for your device that you can flash with ODIN. For this procedure you don't need root. Here in Germany it's possible to have for example a T-Mobile device and you can wipe and flash over with a...

The error seems to have to do with android security upates as mentionen here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294/page174 Originally this has nothing to do with Note 7, the development for this restriction was made earlier this year: The...

The block command is only avaliabe for android up to version 4.4.4 Beginning from version 5 (lollipop) this command was renamed to hide. And it hides the whole package from showing up and also for the system, so the package cannot be launced. The most packages disablers do the same, it's just...

The debloater software as mentioned above has a filter option. Once you have read all the packages you have, just filter for such strings like t-mobile / tmobile / update / firmware As T-Mobile has different ROMs (for T-Mobile Germany, USA,...) i don't know what packages you have on your...
