What country code are you on now? This German (DBT) suppose to be for unbranded phones, but people have problems flashing this. Keeps getting fail in Odin. I'm having this too and I'm standing back for the moment awaiting solution.
You can flash the Polish (XEO) NB3 and the file can be downloaded from sammobile.com/firmwares

Couple of questions
1- The poland firmware works for sure? or does that render odin to fail as well?
2 - Can i install 4.3 firmware stock? if yes can you pls share a link.

There is no returning to 4.3 once you have upgraded your bootloader to 4.4.2

You mentioned nogo to 4.3 due to bootloader however i dindt check the bootloader option in odin (see screenshot). Should i tick that as well next time?
Well there is some debate as to if you should check the bootloader or not.
With the leaked Polish firmware it came in seperate files. You needed to check to upgrade the Bootloader.
With the XEO single .zip firmware you don't need to check it as it upgrades automatically - plenty agree with this. -- There is a few people who say that by not checking it, it hasn't upgraded for them and some just recommend you check it for good luck sake.

Thanks Radicalisto.
Lets see how it goes. Fingers crossed.
Normally after the odin flash, all apps/data etc are there? If not what is the best/tried method of backup without root?

Does this rom suffer from any battery drain issues? or in general any issues? this isnt beta so i suppose none should exist.
No drain issues no, pretty decent build tbh.

MEGA is country based per account. So if I upload to my MEGA it comes from a UK Server which is slow to Asia/America etc, trick is to set up your own MEGA account, and then import it from the download MEGA link and it'll switch to a server in your country and you'll get faster download speeds

Hey just got my edge today, looks like there is very little going on as it was just released a few days ago despite it being out in the states for quite some time, the only difference I believe is the LTE in the Canadian version.
Anyways, coming from the note 2, 3 and 4 and the trtlecan version always being close to the trtletmo I decided to risk it and flash the tmo cf auto root and recovery despite there being no stock firmware laying around on sammmobile the others..
annnd I'm happy to report that I now have a TWRP recovery, rooted, SM-N915W8.
go ahead and follow the very detail steps in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-edge/general/easy-steps-stock-odin-n915tuvu1anjl-sm-t2943993
MAKE SURE TO READ THE PART ABOUT IT FAILING (to flash cwm) AND THAT BEING OK being flashing TWRP
and then the BRIGHTNESS SETTINGS inside recovery which will look like you have sleep lock if you don't fix them before letting the screen timeout
and have all 4 files on hand before you start!
Awesome, thanks for the info, I was debating it but just was being a chicken. I'm glad everything worked out. Did you make a nand? If so did you flash the nand just to make sure everything was OK? Are your root apps working without issues.? I don't mind taking the risk...just wanna be sure

I Too have a rooted SM-N915W8 (BELL VERSION but im on TELUS)
Thank you for your insight @gundal
Awesome glad it worked out for you too, now we can experiment with which kernel and os will boot without fear of bricking
Yes, I tried reflashing the backup and all is good.
Hyperdrive didn't work even with restoring our boot sector (kernel)

Glad you guys are having luck with the Canadian model. I jumped the gun and imported one from Korea as soon as it was released and it's an awesome device!
Enjoy!
Were you guys able to flash a custom ROM? Which ROMS will work with the Canadian version? And which US Model number is 'equivalent' to the Canadian one?

Anyone try any T-Moble stuff? I didnt look myself but I ask because we all used the tmoble stuff for our old Canadian Note3s ... could be the same senerio. I think that Tmoble kernels should work..
There might be a version of Hyperdrive for tmoble..

What recovery are you using cause Im on twrp and I cant make a backup, cache partition cant be mounted either, are you having this prob too?....
Dont worry about it, someone else who had this problem fixed it by formatting cache - did that and everything went fine.

Tried flashing Hyperdrive Edge for T-Mo with both twrp (2.8.1.1) and cwm (6.0.5.1 Xiaolu) referenced in the root guide by OP. They flashed without error but I got bootlooped both times. Luckily backup/restore works for both recoveries.
Does anyone know of a way to get back to stock recovery after flashing cwm or twrp? Any known location of a stock image?

Go to sammobile web site...download the original firmware for your model and flash it. When u flash original firmware everything will be back to stock including recovery..and you will be able to receive ota update. To flash stock firmware...just use odin. Search this forum for instruction on how to flash using odin.

Yeah I know about sammobile, flashing via Odin etc. There's no stock firmware uploaded for the Canadian variants yet so I was wondering of an alternate method to flash the stock recovery. I tried extracting the recovery from the stock image via ADB shell, converting to tar.md5, then flashing with Odin but it failed....likely because I'm rooted. Guess I'll have to wait until the firmware gets uploaded. Thanks anyway.
Try contacting the sammobile team...and their forum..they maybe able to help..

Not yet. I check daily. I'm hoping someone will be able to capture it via Kies when Lollipop rolls out. It's only matter of time before sammobile gets it.

Arg, that really bites. Now I have a new phone I cant use at all. You'd think the firmware would be released when the phone was. Have you tried the other roms? I can't even gwt onto my internal sd to put them on the phone so I can try installing them. So frustrated.

The TM-320s are at the following. You need to filter by country. The standard U.S. firmware is under "Cellular South (XAR)":

Do note that Lollipop just started rolling out to the Tab S series. Hopefully that's a sign that the Tab Pro Lollipop isn't much farther off.
I'm not able to download any firmware from the SamMobile site. Can anyone provide me with a firmware? I don't care about the region or anything since I'll be flashing CM right after that (my device is soft-bricked, and I need to flash stock firmware with Odin). If someone can either mirror a firmware or share it with me, I'd greatly appreciate it
Would flashing this firmware remove the KNOX triggered flag.
I.e. if I flash it, can I return it to the shop and Samsung for repair?
EDIT: Yes, it removes KNOX
I have problems during the boot of the tablet
I've followed all the steps but when i've finally used odin, my tablet doesn't power on, it stays at samsung, st 320 or something like that and I can't go further. Also it only shows all that stuff when it is pluged in the pc.
I really don't know what to do, so could anybody help me please???

I don't think that's possible unless you have a pre-rooted or custom rom that you are flashing thru Odin. If you flash the newest firmware it will wipe out your root and custom recovery and you start all over.
