[Q] Help! Stock ROM backup not working! - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I rooted my sprint note 3 today and installed the AICP lollipop ROM. Before I installed this I backed up my stock ROM. When I tried to restore the stock ROM, it boots up to a black screen and a pop up shows up for nearly all of my apps that says they are not responding so all I get is that and a black screen. Is this because I went from a 5.0 ROM to a 4.4.4 one? Is there any way to get my stock ROM working again ? I'm using TWRP on a Sprint Note 3 SM-N900P. All help would be much appreciated.

You can't downgrade if you upgraded the Kitkat Bootloader to Lollipop.

[Q] My Note 3 went %&$&$%

I have been using the CM11 rom from Temasek until I decided to have a go at the Omega Rom. After installing through recovery, my note cannot get out of the Samsung Logo. It just refused to start. Tried installing latest stock rom through odin, same issue. Saw three lines of messages on the top left hand corner and the Samsung logo and that's it. Can only get it working if I revert back to Temasek's rom.
Help anyone...

which versions of omega and stock rom did you flash ? i read you said the newest, just asking to be sure.
if its the newest omega rom, you must flash 4.4.2 stock rom first.
when you upgrade to 4.4.2, you can no more use cm11 and you cant go back to any 4.3 based rom.

I tried the 7.1 Omega Rom and then the 4.4.2 version of the stock rom.
You have to flash the stock 4.4.2 via Odin. Is that what you did?

Yes I did.
Try to boot into recovery after flashing the stock 4.4.2 and factory reset. Maybe that will work.

Flash stock 4.3 with odin, then 4.4.2 stock with odin. Then install recovery, and Omega after.

that shouldnt be possible if you done everything right.
as soon as you are on the new bootloader that you get when you flash 4.4.2, you can definatley not revert to temasek, it wont boot.
i think you are still on the old bootloader and that is why your kitkat based roms dont boot.

Yes, I'm running 4.4.2 kitkat with x-note 11 rom installed and it works just fine. It's the same just once you get kitkat there's no turning back to 4.3.

Once you root, Knox is tripped on Kitkat. There is currently no way to fix & you need root or a custom recovery to install custom roms......

Hello
So currently on my gm900v i have the Syndicate rom (5.0) and i was looking into getting CM12 on the phone. Now can i flash the roms from here http://www.teamub.co.uk/ if i downgrade my lollipop kernel and use safestrap, flash the rom then the gapps, then boot into download mode and then flash the lollipop kernel back on?

If you have the developer edition of the Verizon S5 bought directly from Samsung, then yes you can flash this and CM12. Since you mentioned safestrap I'm going to assume you have the retail version of the Verizon S5, so no you cannot flash this, CM12, or any AOSP based ROM.
hmmmm

To be honest i am not quite sure of it origins we got it in china and the software that came on it before i flashed the Syndicate rom just said g900 so i take it it had some custom Chinese firmware. (see attached) i have made a backup so i can easily flash to its "original" state
Alsi i am in the UK and running three mobile
Edit: also if i can not flash CM12 how can i get a lollipop rom with Nexus style i hate touchwiz i had been using S4 rom with nexus style lollipop and i like it so much better

I don't think this is possible yet. Our only hope for something other than TW is probably the Eclipse ROM but that's AOSP style.
Thanks

[Q] Downgrading to KK

I've recently installed the official Lollipop from Poland on my n9005, and I have some problems with every official LP release (starting to charge randomly even when not plugged) so I wonder if I can downgrade to KK.
I dont have any backups on my phone, so the only solution is using ODIN to flash official KK back to my phone, right ?

I'm in the same situation too, I was wondering what if i rooted and installed a custom recovery to my Lolipop then flashed a custom kitkat rom, will this even work?

is this guide to root lolipop legit?

I noticed the lollipop update is now available for the note 3. However I still want to keep root. I searched google and found this guide, but I'm not sure if its legit or works.

Not sure, but did you see Hsbadr post in android dev...it's a rooted stock lollipop rom
Pay close attention...that is for the N900 International N3 that does not have a locked bootloader.

It's not the international N3, as those are modeled "N900n" where n is a number. The N900 is a SIM unlocked US variant that works on GSM only carriers. (All US variants are N900(x) where x is a letter representing the carrier. No Carrier leaves x blank.)
*EDIT*
Just to reiterate, this won't work on the N900V
The point is it does not work for Verizon or Att with locked bootloaders.

If I understand correctly there is currently no way to install Janine ROM of you are already on lollipop right? I just bought a used note three but haven't gotten it yet to see which firmware is on it. In coming from a g2 where there were plenty of ways to root

If you're already on lollipop than you cannot root or flash any roms. You need to be on either 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 already rooted with safe strap installed to install the rooted stock rom
Oh so jasmine ROM is basically stock 5.0 with root? So basically I just need to flash his ROM and I'm good to go? I'm running 4.4.2 and have safestrap installed
