Question: how to update from 2.5 to 2.6 without losing data #409
@Mesazane Hey, can't I just skip the OdinPack and copy the ROM to internal storage, then flash it from TWRP without using ADB?
Device: Note 20 ultra 5G

@Mesazane well if you really want 2.6 without a pc you could technically reboot to fastboot and flash the images using bugjaegar on another phone. but i didnt know that you couldnt flash vbmeta over twrp

Samsung dont have fastboot
But you can use Eros flashing tool as a odin for mobile

Hi, that will depend on your device.
If your device is S10, then it's impossible to do so.
If you're NOT using an S10, then follow the steps below :
And your data would be safe.

Hi, no you can't. Since it needs the new odinpack

@Mesazane if you dont have a pc extract the odin pack on your phone and install the new images manually through twrp.
Mesazane commentedon Aug 4, 2025
try flashing the vbmeta.img that way you bomb(it wont work. hence why you need odin)

Mesazane commentedon Aug 4, 2025
You need to flash the new Odinpack before flashing the new ROM
