For now, 5.0 is snappy and kind a fast but battery is the same as 4.4.2 , and still needs to be retoched a little...
S health doesn't work verry well it stops most of time..
Now if you want to test you you shoud know that you cannot go back to 4.4.2 very easily...
goodluck
Okay.. Thanks..
Why is it that I have trouble going back to 4.4.2?

I was able to revert from Lollipop back to 4.4.2 without any issues. Used Odin and official 4.4.2 ROM.

Hi!
Got my N9005 with MJ7, so I went and rooted with cf auto-root.
As I'm on 4.3 stock, what are my options for upgrading?
What are the implications of the new 4.4.2 bootloader ?

I can live with that as I like the s-pen features.
Should I just flash any firmware?
I see on sammobile there isn't yet a Croatian rom with 4.4.2.
Should I just flash another one if so how to choose and what is the best way to flash?
Will my root survive or will I have to re-root?
Thanks!
Mine didn't survive and now I can't re root for some reason

Chainfire has a 4.4.2 version of CF auto-root out, did you try that?
Yeah that's the only one I tried. Seems to install fine but when booted back up supersu isn't even installed

For me all works. For the S-View Cover if you got problems theres a XPOSED MODULE that fixes.
If you want to flash to kitkat flash to the latest one - https://mega.co.nz/#!9ExjAR5a!JlqiFGnMqN1iYQylM7-3bhvupKtkZ9fnLLwLwTC8rD0 (thanks @ValenteL )
What about battery state?

Best is poland, from what I have read and some ppl said.
But I couldn't find latest poland nb4 as what most ppl said.
So I flashed the nb7 germany but it requires pit file to be flashed together.
Or perhaps u could try nb7 uk.
My sview cover is working just fine with nb7 germany. No issue. And fyi, I m not using any original scover ciz too ex for me.
Sd card problem I found so far only on dolphin apps, where by it detects as "external sd" only, instead of "storage/external sd". Therefore if u want to download something, it will still be only able to save to internal sd.
Btw, battery much more better than 4.3.
I m quite satisfy with it, based on my same usage.
And it really did stay very well in deep sleep.
I discharged, and nver use it for 4 hours, it dropped to 98% only. Something I never see before.
Sent from N9005 4.4.2 NB7 rooted device
NB7 Germany contains the fix for the 3rd party accessories. (It is the second 4.4.2 update for DBT).
Keep in mind that 4.3 has a very, very annoying issue with Android leeching battery. I never had issues before updating to 4.4.2. Factory reset helped a bit, but not much. Ever so often Media Server prevents deep sleep.
The SD Card doesn't have problems, the lazy app developers have a problem. Google updated security policies (remember how people are always whining about security? This is the result. Blame them.) and now the devs have to alter one tiny permission in their apps and it works. But a lot of them can't be bothered.
If you are happy on 4.3, don't update.
I think to stay on 4.3 and wait for another update
Mybe 4.4.3 ?

You either update to 4.4.2, or don't update.
4.4.3 would be too long away. Once Google releases 4.4.3, it would take months for Samsung to update, if they feel like it.
Really I'm worry If I update my phone to 4.4.2
Be sorrowful for leaving 4.3 ?

Hey guys.
Had some great advice in some of my other questions and I thank everyone who posted. Everything always helps.
Just before I do this, as I've been informed that you can't go back to 4.3 after updating bootloader to 4.4.2.
Which would be the latest 4.4.2 firmware I should flash for N9005 in Australia? I then want to flash custom roms like Xnote etc. Knox will be triggered after I flash a custom recovery am I right?
Thanks guys. As far as I can see NC3 is the latest.

Thing is what if I was to flash the Netherlands firmware, will I still be able to use it stock if I wish in Australia? I'll probably go straight to custom rom but just seeing. I'm worried if I flash a certain countries firmware I'll brick my device...

no u won't brick, as long as u choose the correct firmware for your device.
and do a proper step by ODIN PC.
btw, u open 2 similar threads ?
Yeah I know, just trying to get more info. As a thread gets seen once, it's forgotten about pretty quickly and not many people get to see it, or have the opportunity to comment. especially in the q&a section.

Another thing I wanted to check was if I flashed ND3...can use like NB7 or NB3 or any earlier 4.4.2 rom?? Custom obviously? Heard some scary things if you go back...maybe that's to a non-knox firmware...
Thanks!!

You can flash other (earlier) 4.4.2 roms but you can`t downgrade to a 4.3 rom afaik
Oh cool. That's fine then. All these have open MSCs right? So I could technically use it stock? There will be an English option? I mean if it's all on there I don't know why Samsung doesn't release it at a faster rate, ir more at once... If indeed it works fine. I'll probably change straight away to a custom rom but still, it'd be nice to see what vanilla kit kit is like.

Hi all, I have a problem here with my Note 3 9005, 32 gb...I had a big problem...solved in guarantee...they changed the motherboard...with kk 4.4.2 on board...after received the phone, I flashed via Odin polish variant of lollipop 5.0 from sammobile...all ok...but my note randoom reboot since then...3, 4,5 times a day....i rooted, flashed cm 12...but still reboots...any advice?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app
It worked so its probably bad flash/ wrong firmware .
Warranty is void so try flashing a new 5-0 rom or even a stock based custom rom .

You definetely should try the Omega rom, and DO a full wipe. If the problem persist, try using different kernels.
