I got the direct link for the Nougat update

[tengtengvn]

I got the direct link for the Nougat update now. I'm downloading. I need to find a place to upload it.

NOTE: at this point, the file is NOT flashable unlike the Verizon one. We need an experience expert to help us out. Don't waste your time downloading it.

/edit: here you go guys.

Can you share the exact message?
Hopefully it's not a bad upload.

I left my computer, but it just said the zip isn't valid. Could they have encrypted the file so you can't share?

It's not a bad upload. I had to download it using internet download manager, for some reason when downloading it through the browser the download fails.

The original file is the BIN file. I just renamed it. Let me put the file in 7zip and upload it so it's unchanged.

In Total Commander, it shows the contents of the zip are fine... the .bin, the .mbn.. and metafiles....

I see more files than that when I open with 7zip.

I got the direct link for the Nougat update

I have a question how are you able to download that on a pc if Samsung
will only allow connections from a specific user agent header string.
I have a packet dump of the download and I have verification from the server and the correct file size in bytes and the MD5 Hash sum. They also match yours so I can verify you and I both have the full correct file from the OTA server

 

[tengtengvn]

What you need to do is pause the download, start package capture, resume the download.
From the PCAP, merge the Host part with the GET part. My download link is still working after 3 hours. I use Chrome to download

My link looks like this:

Thank you very much. I used packet capture on mine. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.greyshirts.sslcapture&hl=en
Is that the same one you used?
here is my idea on how to repair / correct the header of the zip so it may be flashable via recovery. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=69874795&postcount=1002
If not then I think it can only be flashed with the fota.apk I think it does something to the zip before it flashes it.

I also did some poking around in the zip file and notice the update script is checking for the exact 6.0.1 build and flashing everything as a DIF, not as a regular update would.

I've downloaded the BIN file provided in the forum, now what should I do to install the update?!

 

[douglas12107]

if it helps any ive downloaded this zip file and when trying to copy it to SD Card i get a unexpected error that device may have been uplugged but any other file i try to copy works without issue, theres definetly some sort of security, ive also redownloaded file 3 times to see if it was a download issue which i now know its not

Edit: downloaded straight to sd card into FOTA folder for the hell of it tried to flash it and get 2 errors, 1. footer is wrong and 2. signature verification failed
