-Root it, triangle away, unroot it, might just work.
-If the method above didn't work, it's probably Knox messing with u and u wouldn't be able to flash any anything even if u wanted to.
-For the Note 3 I would say yes.

Just download a full firmware and flash it through odin. Simple and u don't need headache.
for upgrade cross firmware (different base), advisable to do fullwipe. In upgrade to KK, full wipe will lessen ur headache about some FC/some apps not working/huge battery drain.
ur choice to make.
Yes update worth it. My battery can last almost 2 days with 3-4 hrs screen on.

[Q] Sound problem I9595 BlackEdition - Omega v33

Hello everybody,
i just put the a custom rom for the first time and i am actually really happy with this rom.
My friend called me 1h ago, so i noticed that i am hearing my friend fine, but the problem is that he cant hear me.
I tested it with the audio capture and it just sound messy.
Here are all the information:
Omega v33 - XXUGNF1
Android Version 4.4.2
Modellnummer: GT-19505 Black Edition
Basisbandversion I9505XXUGNF1
Kernel:3.4.0-talexop-2+-gb4fe160-dirty
[email protected]#4
I just tried it with the 3.4.0-Adam-2.3, but it is not working, too.
Did i install something wrong?
So which kernel is the right one for me to get the sound problem fixed?

Hi ,
That problem most of the times is modem related , go Omega files /modem flash the same one again or upgrade it to the newest , follow instructions to do it
As shown in OP of Omega V33
Installation:
1. Backup your device (nadroid backup, titanium backup, efs backup ... etc) and save the backup to a safe place.
2. Flash the new bootloder and modems with odin
Bootloader -> BL_I9505XXUFNAD_481100_REV06_user_low_ship_MULTI_C ERT.tar.md5
If you already have the new Kit Kat bootloader there is no need to flash it again.
Modems XXUFNC9 -> I9505XXUFNC9_GSM_LTE_Modems.tar
Power off device completely, then boot to download mode and flash bootloader (if needed) and modems with odin
Then boot to android and check if the new modem XXUFNC9 flashed ok (if wifi is not working is normal)
3. Boot to Recovery --recommended TWRP, get the latest version from here -> http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/182--
and flash Omega and then boot to android.
You can flash without full wipe if you are coming from a previous Omega Kit Kat version, if not then flash with full wipe
PLEASE FOLLOW THE EASY INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ELSE YOU WILL HAVE VARIOUS ISSUES!
BACKUP FIRST !!

I flashed the LTE_Modem_I9595XXUGNF1 again, but it is still the same problem.
Can i test an older one without any problems, or do you know anything else to solve my problem?

You can try with an older one if you wish and see if it helps , did you flash the GSM modem also?

Yes i installed both. I will try some of the LTE/GSM modems now.

I still have the microphone issue.
I Updated the baseband (GSM+LTE) to the newest I9505XXUGNF1, but i cant fix this microphone problem. It sounds like it is raining or something like the television where u cant get a programm.
I searched now about 5hours, but this is something i cant get fixed.
Please anyone here who can help with this issue?

[Q] S-pen stopped working

Hi all!
since yesterday my S-pen stopped working when i resetted my phone (i was on a custom rom then)
I crashed in to a bootloop for 3 days (i just used my backup phone because i didnt had any time to fix it)
After 3 days it randomly booted the phone and i succesfully restored my phone to factory settings (still on the custom rom tho)
after it was resetted my S-pen stopped working and it did nothing on the screen.... It is still being recognized when i pull out the S-pen but i can't use it on the screen.
So i just restored it to a stock 4.4.2 kitkat rom (UK version) but still without luck.... the S-pen is not working
Anybody that knows what the problem is? the custom rom was X-note and before the restore my s-pen just worked fine...
Can someone please help me?

bro first of all relax and download any custom rom and flash it via recovery say cynogenmod etc..then let it start and check whether you can connect to network if its fine then your hardware is perfectly safe and goahead with flashing the stock rom you downloaded (consider redownloading it to be sure) and flash it and you would be fine

because installing a custom rom by fully formatting phone will delete any corrupted files that are causing the error and when you will flash the official rom it will intsall as a new clean rom and will work without any problem

I do not think I missed the point. Your original post only mentions KK but not LP which is why I suggested LP. The last line of your original post even states the ROM in use on the phone.

I

No worries. Thank you for clarifying the situation. Your English is fine.
I don't know which version of Odin you are using but I always use Odin 3.07 because I have never had a problem with 3.07.
Do you have a pit file for your phone? Flashing the pit file with the stock ROM in Odin might solve the problem.

This is coz KNOX blocked the wifi access.
SOLUTION:
1. Flash via ODIN the latest android 4.4.2 version to your device: THIS ONE.
2. Root it via ODIN with CF-Autoroot.
3. Using Root Explorer (for example) delete all the KNOX entries: GUIDE.
4. Reboot your device. You should have wifi now. Install TRIANGLE AWAY and reset your flash counter to complete the job. Done.

Install this APP and add screenshots pls.

You mentioned that you tried kies in your post but Kies didn't support your phone. It could be that the updated ROM is supported in Samsung's smart switch.
