[Q] Unable to update Note 3!

Hi guys,
I am using the SM-N9005 Note 3 variant and am unable to update the phone.
I am rooted and have tripped knox (0x1) and have tried using Wanam to set the Device Status to 'Official' which lets me download the update but will not install. When it tries to reboot to install, it enters CWM and a screen of errors flash for a few seconds and reboots back normally without installing the update.
I have also tried updating via Kies but once the installation process goes to > 90%, my computer automatically shuts down for some reason.
If there's any way to update (and is it worth the trouble to update?), I'd like to know, thanks!
Currently on build number/baseband N9005XXUBMJ1.
edit: thanks guys!

You need to have stock recovery to do that. My recomendation, flash stock firmware then update and then root your phone

get update at www.sammobile.com get yours and flash with odin ,you will lose root
you can flash stock rom with MOP to keep root.
Will try.
You are better off updating with a custom Rom. You will still have your mj1 boot loader but latest rooted firmware

Which Version of TWRP for Note 4 SM-N910U 5.1.1.

Hey guys,
So yesterday i had a NIGHTMARE.
I had a note 4 running on 5.0.1 which was rooted with CF Auto Root. I decided i wanted to install TWRP. I flashed it with odin using the version i thought would be correct. But ended up NOT being able to boot my phone and being stuck on the Samsung Logo screen with the SEANDROID red error message.
I tried everything and eventually just downloaded the STOCK 5.0.1 rom and flashed it with Odin and my phone was back to normal.
I now need to Re-root my phone again and hopefully get twrp installed.
My main question is which version of TWRP should i use?
Also when i look at the CF Auto Root page, i see for the SM-910U they seem to only have a file for 5.1.1. So does that mean i should update from 5.0.1 - 5.1.1. first before rooting?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Yes, you should update.
Look for twrp at xda. There are threads about twrp for note4

Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-19500, SHC-1545) Stuck on bootloop . Please help

Hello , I'm seriously in need of your help. I bought this samsung galaxy s4 (gt-19500) just yesterday. it was running on android version 5.0.1, unrooted. i was able to root with kingo root pc. i then tried to replace the the kingo superuser with supersu by downloading android terminal and running the commands ( su, sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh). after that i was prompted to update supersu binaries. it took like 10 minutes but still couldn't update so i restarted my phone. the phone got into boot loop. I've tried updating firmware with both kies and kies 3 but they tell me to check device model after ive input it correctly ( GT-19500 or SHC-1545). Ive tried using odin but still to no avail. i downloaded twrp recovery for gt 19500 from galaxys4root.com. when i select the .tar file , odin hungs and never responds again. ive downloadd other cmw files from other websites but whenever i try flashing them with odin it fails by saying "fail (auth). ive tried abd sideload and i get "e: signature verification failed..). i tried and s4 lolipop rom on xda forumss but while flashing with odin , it fails and my phone displays "unsupported device type". please help me . i bought phone just yesterday. I'm now stock recovery.
Hi,
Could you boot into download mode and see what's device model you're using?

Note 4 Softbrick, Odin fail, Newest firmware. Help?

Couple of nights ago my Note 4 (American T-Mobile SM-N910T) started boot looping. I've rooted, flashed recovery and all that jazz so I did what I assumed was the fix. I tried to reflash the stock rom and reset the entire system.
Boot to recovery
Cache wipe
Factory Reset
Didn't work......
Load up Odin
Flash N910TUVU2EQI2 (which I believe is the latest Note 4 firmware as of 2017?)
Odin fails like step one.
"SW REV CHECK FAIL : [aboot]Fused 2 > Binary 1
[1]eMMC Write Fail: ABOOT
Now I'm not completely uneducated on this. It sounds like it's saying the boot loader is a higher version than the firmware? I don't see how... Am I getting something wrong here?
I've always done OTA updates when they became available.
EDIT: JK turns out I'm just an idiot and was using a 4 year old version of Odin.... works fine now.
