Hi Guys,
I tried searching but couldnt see it, is there a stock 4.4 available for Note 3 N9005?
THanks!
First, if u mean stock 4.4.4 then u have just made your first mistake, cuz the latest Samsung stock firmware is 4.4.2.
Second, if u mean stock 4.4.2 then this will be your second mistake cuz you will find those things in android development section not here.
Last, your biggest mistake is to be here in original development section so go to the Q&A section and don't do it again.
Good luck

Hello ive been searching the internet on how to upgrade the international S3 from 4.1.2 to 4.3 and ive found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1835931
I noticed some guys saying something about backing up the EFS and stuff like this, which i don't understand :S (i will appreciate it if someone can explain it to me)
Anyways im running 4.1.2 I9300XXEMG4 and JZO54K.I9300XXEMG4 and i still didnt got an update for 4.2.2 or 4.3 ;/ i bought the phone from cyprus .
How can i safely upgrade it to 4.3 ?
PS: I've rooted it in the past and flashed custom roms but now i flashed a stock rom, i just dont need root or anything i want Stock Official roms without flash counter if possible.
Thanks :highfive:
bump?

Hi guys, I have been searching everywhere in order to know how to downgrade from 4.4.2 back to 4.3.
However,all posts were telling that once we have updated to 4.4.2....there is no way on downgrading.
So,even the Samsung center can't help me to downgrade too?
Because Im thinking to go over Samsung center to downgrade if they can really do so.
you have a big risk to brick your phone
I read somewhere that someone do it but everywhere it's recommand and it said that after upgrade to KK, no way back
Won't happen. The only way to downgrade a snapdragon based note 3 is to replace the mainboard with one that has not yet seen kitkat.
Sent from my leanKernel 3.4 powered stock 4.4.2 (NF4) SM-N900T
hell...i juz received the 4.4.2 update and start facing so many issues especially the sd card file permission..
It did hav solution but require root..so i thaught maybe reverting to previous version will do..
But now, my note 3 is hopeless and wondering if samsung will release a fix for this ;-(

Well, It can happen now. It may be a little too late for many who might have moved on to newr phone by now. But as a new n9005 owner I struggled hard to downgrade to 4.3 without any issues. So by trial and error I managed to do it taking cues from the original post in another thread. My reason for the downgrade was better battery life. But that did not happen after downgrade. AT least not in a significant way.. Anyway here's my strategy in summary for those who want to downgarde to 43 with no issues. It worked for me. IMEI ok, video recording ok. But I give no guarantee for others. I am not allowed to provide links so will just provide enough clues to loacte them.
Here's what I did:
Again to remind use this is to downgrade N9005 FROM 4.4.2 TO 4.3
The starting point is 4.4.2 rom version N9005XXUGNG1. I had N9005XXUGNG1_VFGGNH1 if you have Android 5.0 first downgrade to this
1. Do A Wipe Data Factory Reset and cache partition
2. Odin: Flash In AP the file "COMBINATION_FA43_N9005XXUGNH1_N9005OXAGNH1_267031 2_REV00_user_mid_noship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5."
3. Odin: Flash In AP a JB compatible cwm/twrp (look up in this forum) recovery for N9005
5. Boot into Recovery and do a Data/Cache/Dalvik wipe
6. Install in recovery Omega Rom 4.0 for N9005 JB 4.3 (N9005_Omega_v4.0_XXUDMJ7_md5_A7256B2A7F2E7005A65A 6E1CA5EA77C9.zip
7. Done! you will be running a fully working Jelly Bean 4.3 ROM!
Search google for the download links for the required files in 2 and 6. I got them form google search
Thanks InSenex! Would it be possible to flash a _stock_ 4.3.x ROM after the procedure described by you? Omega is a custom ROM, or am I mistaken?
Omega is custom rom.

Its a stock based touchwiz custom rom. Its tweaked stock rom. Its not a custom rom like cm, aosp, aokp etc. Those wishing to desperately downgrde to 4.3 probably would not care about tweaked stock rom or original stock rom

Omega is STOCK based touchwiz tweaked rom. I believe you can make it a pure stock rom by stripping off all the optmizations/tweaking done to it, replacing deleted stocke files from an extracted stock rom, or flash a cwm/twrp flashable jelly bean stock rom (Not sure if it exists, but there are guides on how to make a flashable stock rom)
Original question answered correctly .
<Omega is a custom ROM, or am I mistaken? >
Its a custom rom .
Based on Samsung firmware yes .
Thats why its in Android Development section .
Please be carefull of giving users wrong / confusing information .

Anyone knows the easiest way to go back to kitkat? Will I just need to flash the stock rom? I'm on stock lollipop right now.
Few months ago i asked the same question, i searched for it my self because its already here in the forum . Anyway my advice is you stick to lollipip. The device is faster and more apps are compatible
