Ok first off i know how to unroot i was just wondering if anyone could give me a site where i can download the stock rom faster than on the stock rom website, it is super slow and takes around two hours on my internet, which is not slow. I think there is a download speed limit on the site.
Device: Sprint GS4.

expert noob here so be gentle I flashed this rom knowing full well it's for the european version of the galaxy. It was Blazing fast on my phone, although the modem doesn't work I was fine with wifi only. I tried to flash kb1 ka7 and a couple others but could not get stability beyond a few minutes. There is also the Samsung App store that was very interesting and was fully functional...pulled down a couple cool apps that are not in the market. My question(s), is there a way to get this ROM running on US phones? It seems so close to working and honestly mu phone has never felt so fast...also I went to see if I could get the Samsung App apk but on the samsung site its NA for the US...so with root explorer I pulled the apk and installed with success but i'm only able to see 1 app available running my current axura 229 rom, with Darky's rom I saw everything. I'm willing to do what I can if anyone is interested in this rom.

Not sure where in the phone I encountered the setting (or which ROM) but I guess there's a setting responsible for that (i.e. restricting the upload of large files/downloading updates to WiFi).
Or the off-chance your Carrier is messing with you (mine did that a few weeks back but restored the service two weeks later). After all, you can surf the web, can't you? Doing that is an interactive process which requires concurrent downloading and uploading data. Let's have your feedback.
PS: Is it a CM7-based ROM?
Also, remember that some apps ONLY allow you to upload via WIFI.

I tried it on many kernels on many roms and still the same. Also i changed my Simcard to another operator and still cannot upload. Speedtest shows about 1KB/s upload where download is about 400KB/s. Market, Opera Mobile, Stock browser shows timeouts. Works Only IM and Opera mini.
I want to back to stock kernel and stock rom but i cant find link to download stock kernel.

an easy way to return to stock kernel is flashing baseband again, here you can find a baseband according to your device (e15i or e15a)
Hello,
Last night I flashed the early leaked rom of the N9005 but the phone seems to have a few little quirks that I suspect may be due to the ROM not being ready for release at the time it was leaked (perhaps).
I tried to download from sammymobile but the download keeps stopping and won't complete, I also have tried downloading from 2 other sources but one says the download has exceeded the bandwidth limit and the other I'm downloading now started at around 40kbps and now is hovering at about 5kbps.
If anyone can link to a reliable download of the ROM it would be very much appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks but I already tried from there yesterday and the download was very slow and kept stopping and wouldn't resume, also the site is currently down for upgrades.
However I did find some good downloads for the Polish ROM in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/finally-official-5-0-firmware-galaxy-t3029557
Currently using the direct link and getting about 200kbps, thats about the same as I get on Mega but usually Mega slows to a crawl at the end taking much more time.
I'll leave this thread up incase it helps others looking for the same info I had trouble finding.
Hello XDA,
I have tried numerous ROMs/apps in last few weeks of time and very very thankful to great developers of XDA.. (THANK YOU very much).
But I am unable to control my battery drain issues (I thought my battery is old and bought a new one) but still having same issues.
1. Battery charges normally from 2% to 100% in maximum 90 minutes
2. Battery drains from 100 to 0 in 90 minutes while playing games like Hungry Shark Evolution with sound, same happens with some multiplayer games like Ninja Dash and/or subway surfers etc.. (my kid wont stop playing same on my cell)
3. Battery drains from 100 to 0 in maximum 8 to 10 hours with wifi ON.. Whatsapp and Facebook running in background, using phone hardly for 10 minutes in voice calls (incoming/outgoing)
It seems I am unable to control some advanced features in custom ROMs.
I am travelling out next week, and hence want to switch back to KitKat (latest whatever supports my mobile)
Please help me, understand which file to download (how to flash right way), how to root my mobile.
Just explain in simple instructions, learned a lot trying different roms here.. if anywhere I am stuck. I will reply back.
This is my current stuff posting screenshots.
My experience
I have flashed back to kitkat from lollipop more than 4 times by just flashing via Odin without any problems. I haven't rooted my device yet. But I tried the same steps (lolly to kk) for S4 GT-I9500, with the result of "null imei" issue. I think there is no issues with note 3 N900. I don't know how it will become after rooting. If you are on stock Lolly without root, you can simply flash KK firmware via odin.
Thanks vishnu ji.
Where do I download stock firmware from.
Sammobile or officially from Samsung. Com (never tried downloading from there)
I m just confused which version to download.

1. Install this APP and look for your CSC (region code).

This is the correct firmware for you then if you wanna come back to Kitkat: HERE. Remember backup your EFS and your IMEI before with this app for example: HERE.
I have downloaded this N900XXUENI1_N900ODDENF1_INU. Zip 1.24 gb

Yeah. Remember flash it normally via ODIN like in the pic attached. Maybe appears some errors but we will solve them :highfive:
This will not detect the .zip file in download mode ??
Not sure what to do ahead.. Mobile i detected in download mode properly.
Edit:
I have installed KitKat properly.. but just need to root device to be able to restore backup of all my records from titanium back pro..
It seems I am done with everything as of now..
Android version 4.4.2 and rooted as well.
still having a problem? if so, which one?
Thanks guys,
Fixed everything now.. Using greenify pro now and battery works like charm.
Planning to buy another right app, to remove unnecessary appz from this mobile. (any suggestions ? i am planning to remove system apps like hangouts, watchon, etc. which I never use but always takes up stuff) though everything is now greenified.
Regards.

Root the phone snd use link2sd
I recently flashed Cyanogenmod 13 to my phone using the jfltespr version, The data didn't work but after flashing the Boost APN fix from XDA, Everything went smoothly for the longest time. Until now. The carrier constantly flip-flops between Sprint (The data works but texting doesnt) and Boost (Data doesnt work but texting and calling do). I decided to just revert to stock, but I cant find any reliable sources to download from! This "SamMobile" site everyone has been telling me to download from only hosts files on sites that throttle the download speeds, Its been around 6 hours and the 1.5 GB Rom i'm trying to download is like only a quarter finished!
Here are some links to Odin-flashable .tar firmware files I've found. Pretty sure there are a bunch more floating around.

Ugh, I wished I checked my email more often, I only noticed this after the throttled download finished. But these look good, Thanks! :good::good:
