Just a quick one guys, is the bootloader any different in the firmware builds of 4.4.2? As in, NB3 or NA7 etc etc? Is it really worth flashing a later firmware to get the 'latest' bootloader? In my knowledge, I doubt there much different as it has not much of a bearing in the firmware itself, I've been told anyway.
Thanks in advance!

As far as I know, there is no difference in the bootloader between the KK builds -- or if there is, they seem to be fully compatible.
Thanks mate. Yeah, I didn't think so. What are you running at the moment? Did you flash KK firmware and flash custom?
Thanks again.

I think you can download these versions, extract it and binary compare the files inside to know if they are the same or different.
Flashing bootloaders is a risky business... These little puppies will almost always give you an expensive paperweight if something goes wrong during the flash...
Custom rom with NB3 bootloader... Like the old Androidnow rom, NC2 but developement has stopped and also Assassin rom, waiting fop the V3 with the latest base....
Both those roms have good battery life (depending on use of course) but my screen on time is generally around 4 - 5 hours with around 70% battery left....
That's insane. Haha. I'm just sick of waiting for Samsung to do there business in Australia. This is ridiculous. I've never had a device this long without rooting... It feels, unnatural haha. I'm thinking xnote, crash, bobcat it assassins.

Well, I flashed the Netherlands latest firmware and working like a charm. Even kept my Data partition haha.
So bootloader is 4.4.2 now. Trying to find a way to flash twrp without tripping Knox. Don't think it's possible. I've read that the kernel and the recovery are the parts that trigger Knox.
I noticed that there is an option to flash update zips through stock recovery. Could this be a way to flash a rooted custom rom with stock kernel and not trigger Knox?
Thanks again.

ND3 has a locked bootloader apparently, that makes it impossible to downgrade to earlier KK builds.

No way to flash a custom kernel or recovery and keep Knox. Also no way to root on 4.4.2 without tripping knox, if you had rooted on 4.3 and kept root while upgrading to 4.4.2 you could have used MO (Mobile Odin) to flash roms.

Samsung build some protection so you can't downgrade, for how long that's another story. Anything software can be broken, it's just the matter of effort, keep your eyes open, maybe somebody will find way.

I just read an interesting news. Apparently, some canadian phones ( SM-N900W8 ) when flashed with the newly released Mexican 4.4.2 can downgrade back to a 4.3 firmware. Did somebody who flashed the Poland 4.4.2 tried flashing it and maybe you guys can downgrade to 4.3 after as well? It's just an idea I haven't really tried it.

I also have an S3 i9305 with tripped knox bootloader after upgrading to 4.3. I have not tried to flash stock 4.1.2 on it after that, but it is not a problem to flash a custom 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 custom ROM on it.
Is it only samsung signed ROMs that won't boot if it's downgraded? And custom ROMs is not a problem as long as you don't try to downgrade the bootloader?

Samsung did changes on the bootloader since MJ7, once updates cannot downgrade.
Also new firmware OS need new bootloader, means once up to latest KitKat that need new bootloader, they is no way to revert to older version as of now.

Well for us SM-N900W8 users it's possible to flash back to 4.3. Just took Mexican 4.4.2 for a spin and to me looks the same as 4.3 so I'm back to 4.3 as there's not that many 4.4.2 custom roms out yet.

What is the difference between devices hltetmo and hltecan? I have a hltecan. Will we need CyanogenMod compiled for hltecan? I notice that recoveries have different versions for both devices. Also I am wondering about downgrading for 4.4 (when it comes) to 4.3. Is there a surefire way to upgrade and downgrade between 4.4 TW 4.4 CM and 4.3TW? I would not mind voiding my Knox counter.

I played around a bit earlier... The only firmware you can upgrade to 4.4.2 and downgrade back to 4.3 is the mexican telco one for the n900w8, however I had some issues but will play some more tomorrow when I get time. As for KNOX, it's just one of them things we have to live with I'm afraid..
EDIT: I'm gonna mess with the bootloader and see, doubt it can be matched/mixed to work with the N9005 but what's the harm in trying.

Sorry. Can't understand exactly. What exactly means what versions you can run with a new bootloader?
MJ7 is the bootloader that powers CM currently. You need a bootloader to be able to boot into the operating system. Like a key into the phone.
If you upgrade your bootloader to a newer version aka NA6 it locks the phone. Therefore anything that runs lower than NA6 aka MJ7 won't work.
Think of it like, you broke your door, you got a new door and tried to use the old key. It no long works.

hi, can you elaborate?
i always thought samsung doesn't let you downgrade to an older bootloader. but if you install CM (not samsung official updates) the bootloader doesn't get updated so you can downgrade in the future.
unless you upgrade to 4.4.2 official samsung ROM and update the bootloader, then you'll never be able to downgrade again?

Hey guys.
Quick one, is the XSA rom you can get from samobile the stock Samsung rom? As in not telstra or Optus? Like you would get if you bought unbranded from a Samsung store?
Thanks guys. Only reason I ask is that I'm trying to figure out if my Optus firmware is crappy, I'd guess it is but just need to see before I can't take it back.
Thanks again.

Help me understand this note 3 Knox business. So, I've had nexuses and other Samsung's and I've never had the thing where I couldn't use a previous version of Android if I updated.
So is it just the bootloader we're talking about? If I updated to 4.4.2, I couldn't use anything older than that? Even just the rom?
So how would I even get a 4.4.2 rom if say the roms didn't include the bootloader? And if I did get a bootloader, is the right one? Haha.
Sorry to ask so much, just things seem different with this particular phone and the current versions of Android.
Maybe it's just the bootloader and you can't go and use an older version of Android if that's been flashed.

If you flash a stock KK rom it updates the bootloader. If you get the broken up KK polish rom and don't update the bootloader then KK doesn't load.
Once you update to the latest KK bootloader you CAN'T go back to JB... You will trip Knox warranty void if you try...
Argh I see.
So basically it's the bootloader. But if you root, flash custom recovery and or rom, that's going to trip knox anyway isn't it? So if you did use a earlier version of Android, you still can, it will just trip knox?
Tripping knox doesn't make your phone unusable does it? I'm sure there will be some sort of triangle away or similar that will get rid of it. What if you flash a clean bootloader? Would that clear knox? I wonder where the knox counter info is stored and if it's accessible...
Geez, making myself sound like a noob here haha. I swear I'm an experienced flasher haha.
Just making sure I understand this before I do anything. Seems a little different than normal. Everyone should understand this stuff before they do anything. Haha.

Please tell us the firmware of your phone (baseband, modem, etc..)
I337 has locked bootloader if your firmware is MF3 and above (MK2, NB1, NC1). You have to use the safestrap as a recovery if you want to flash the custom roms. If you want to flash SlimKAT you have to the SlimKAT safestrap version if they have one.
If he had to use Safestrap he can't use Slimkat as it's AOSP and he can't change the kernel. Chances are if he was getting issues flashing aboot then he's on a newer version. Confirm it in the about phone section of the settings though.

You can't go back to older bootloaders ever. Sounds like you are updated to something that you can't flash custom anything to. So safestrap is the only way to go with modded touchwiz based roms.

I was just wondering if one can update bootloader only or does he have to update the whole firmware. Lets say I'm on 4.3 JB and would like bootloader 4.4,can i just simply flash bootloader only?
Do i have to use Odin or can i use cmd flash procedure as for nexus?
I'm asking because lollipop needs a updated 4.4 bootloader as far as i know..
Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, if you manage to get a bootloader only file.
But do keep in mind, that currently 4.4 bootloader works only with 4.4 ROMs (and those custom CM12 ROMs that are made to work with it). You will not be able to revert to 4.3.
Thank you for response.
