this kernel works for my sm-g550t1! finally SEpermissive
thank you for supplying test kernels to try out! i am not familiar with hex editing, so the boot.img really saved me a lot of time. i am new so i can't post links on other threads, but if you would link the guys on the on5 sm-g550t1, i'm sure they would appreciate it

what kernel r u referring to? , could you please share link?
So, I acquired the factory mode firmware for this device, and I was wondering if there was a way to get the secure check on the boot loader disabled from within it. Honestly, the whole menu is confusing.
No chance, the bootloader is as locked down as any other.
The factory firmware is for diagnostic purposes and testing the device by engineers.
I'm referring to the engineer boot img on page 5 of this post. It is a permissive kernel which is awesome! Idid have to turn off secure storage to keep my wifi pws though.....my phone is the galaxy on5 sm-g550tl
Do you guys know of the grace ux and dream ux rom for the on5?, its a new rom but was made for the G550FY but I use it on my G550T1 and it worked.
here a video of it

You obviously read none of this thread before posting.have anyone compiled recovery for sm-s550tl simple mobile version
Does anyone know where to find an alternate link to the engineering boot found here for the sm-s550tl? How do they manage to even get these kind of things?

A revision 1 boot image will not flash on a device with revision 2 firmware using Odin.
It can be force flashed with alternative methods, but may not even boot.
People need to behave and not update for the sake of it. Its either root or update.
I am still on the APG1. For whatever reason, I can't seem to receive the update to go to AQC4.
Isn't this it?

You can't get ota updates on a modified device.
Those are just the combination files. Even on official firmware with no root or modifications, it still keeps telling me my software is up to date.
I'm sorry, I should have been clearer. The reason I'm wanting to update is because im hoping it will fix my imei problem. It got zeroed out after unlocking. Without a backup, I think I'm pretty much done for as far as making and receiving calls and text and data. I tried everything I could find to fix it, but it's looking pretty hopeless.
Then I suggest you download the stock update from updato.com and apply the update via odin.
Sometimes deleting the entire EFS folder will repair the IMEI as it will be rebuilt at next boot, at the very least it usually gives a default IMEI.
The EFS also usually has a backup of the NV_DATA. Which can be used to restore the IMEI if it's not also corrupt.
It's wise to make a backup of the EFS folder/partition before doing anything.
