Hi, I flashed Cm 12.1 lollipop rom on my note 3 t-mobile. I was working good but would like to try dom pop rom and could not succeed to install it. try to install TWRP instead of CWM. but stuck while booting. so now phone enter de downloading mode. But can not enter system rom(lollipop was on it) and also recovery mode.
Can i flash Kitkat official stock rom on to Lollipop running system Because there is no Offical stock lollipop rom for Note 3 t-mobile. My phone stuck and soft bricked i think and got advised to back to the official stock rom is the easiest way. I was worry about if i hard brick my phone by flashing older version rom like kitkat. Is there any way to flash kitkat rom after installing lollipop rom.
What can i do at this situation? highly need help i would be appreciated for your help thanks.

Hi,
I would really appreciate some advice on installing the latest 4.4.2 update on my S4 i9505.
I've been using the MIUI CM rom the last few days but have found it too buggy (it's actually getting worse with updates).
I've also tried installing the Samy Delux rom, although it installs it just won't boot.
My phones boot loader is currently unlocked (no knox, early version of 4.1.2), I know if I install the new OEM rom it will install a secure bootloader.
Can someone please advise if my phone can be rooted if I install the latest rom for my phone and what the process is.
In the past I was able to install a stock rom pre-rooted, but from what I've read on forums that's no longer possible ??
Any advise would be appreciated.
you can root 4.4.2 but you will trip knox
and you can flash Pre-rooted Roms via Recovery
Hi Guys, I am fairly new to flashing and rooting. Have successfully done on my Galaxy S5 and now trying on my Note 3 - N9005. I tried flashing a latest 4.4 rom - Echoe rom and it got stuck in Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Logo. Now i have flashed stock rom (Australian Vodafone) running 4.3. My question is since i am trying to flash a 4.4.2 rom, do i need to do anything specific or just flash TWRP and install a custom rom? i noticed there were 2 versions of TWRP one ofr 4.3 and one for 4.4. I am confused as to since i am on 4.3 version do I flash TWRP 4.3 version? or since i am looking to flash 4.4 rom should i install TWRP 4.4 at first place?

you need 4.4 twrp. It should be 2.7.1 I think. you also need to me sure the Rom is compatible with your phone.

During my first try, i had TWRP for 4.3, which allowed me to flash Echoe Rom based on 4.4 (latest version) for N9005, it even showed me success notification but it never booted past Samsung logo. I then flashed TWRP 4.4 version, but it then wouldn't boot in recovery. i reflashed TWRP 4.3 version and as last resort i had to flash stock firmware.
I will now flash TWRP 4.4 version at first instance and try flashing a rom again. maybe will try a different rom. Thanks for your suggestion :good:
This should be in Q and A don't be surprised if this thread gets closed ..

hello there.
u were sayin u r on 4.3 JB rom.
ur device is N9005 international 32gb right?
let me tell u 1 thing which is a good thing to remember.
4.4 rom will need a 4.4 bootloader.
since u r on 4.3, u must be on 4.3 bootloader which is incompatible with 4.4 rom. flashing twrp for kitkat won't help.
steps that u need to take (easiest) :
1. download 4.4.2 stock firmware.
2. flash with odin v3.09
3. root with cf autoroot (download the KK version)
3. flash custom recovery for KK version (twrp/cwm/ philz). I personally prefer cwm as it has give me less trouble for any custom rom.
4. u can flash any 4.4.2 custom rom now.

THANK YOU!!! This makes lot of sense.:good: I will upgrade to KK first, then custom recovery and then rom. One question? 4.4 is not yet available for my carrier in Australia. can I download and install the Poland version that is floating around internet. Or would you recommend some other.

I bought a new Samsung Galaxy S5 today at a local T-Mobile store. But it turns out that the model number is SM-G900T3, for which I cannot find any information on how to root and install custom recovery. Has anyone had any luck with this model? It's build LMY47X.G900T3UVU1FOF6 Android version 5.1.1
Thanks!
What to do for G900T3 S5
Same here. I went from S4 running cyangenmod 12.1 to s5 g900t3. All because i cracked the screen on my s4. I don't like the stock firmware too much on the s5 so I've been researching rooting it. But run into the same issue. No info on rooting this model. The only thing I can think of to do is downgrade to 4.2 using Odin then root and install CWM. Yet I found a forum where someone posted they were unsuccessful in downgrading the g900t3. So HELP PLEASE.
Turns out it's actually simpler than that. If your goal is to replace the stock firmware with a custom one, such as cyanogenmod then you don't even need to root your stock firmware. All you need to do is flash TWRP custom recovery with Odin, then reboot into TWRP recovery and create a backup of your stock firmware just in case. After that you should be good to go ahead and install cyanogenmod or any other supported custom firmware. This is exactly what I've done with my SM-G900T3.
But if you really want to root your stock firmware then here is a guide for that:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...t/root-kernel-root-method-fof6-5-1-1-t3158005
Hope this helps.
OK thanks for the link. It does state not to flash if I'm on FOG6 Build, which I am. Even though my baseband version is FOF6. Guessing the Build is more important. Last night I tried to downgrade to 4.4 using Odin, that immediately didn't work. So I Flashed Philztouch CWM on it then tried to install superuser from the galaxys5 root page, but it was stuck in bootloop on the T-mobile screen. I realized the superuser was for 5.0 version. So then I used Odin again to flash my firmware back on to it the g900t3 5.1.1 FOG6 from the Sammobile website. After that, because I saw I had a reply on here, I used Philztouch to install Cyanogenmod 12.1 nightly recovery (don't know which on it was, either klte or klteusc) without rooting and I was stuck in the Cyan's big eyed alien face thing bootloop screen again. So then I had to reinstall my stock firmware once more. Basically after 4+ hours of rooting I'm back where I started. LOL. I don't know what else to do. I'm still researching FOG6 to see if I find anything.

Would this be the same procedure to follow if I wanted to put a stock T-Mobile version of 4.4.2 on my SM-G900T3? Or would that not work?
My phone is SM-G7105 (HK version)
Android 4.3
PDA G7105ZHUAOF1
How can I root this device? I only find the ways that for Android 4.4.
Then , how can I flash the Recovery like TWRP?
Can I flash this ? https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-grand-2/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-0-t3464864
If no, where have cm13 for my device?
I am Hong Kong people, so my English is so bad
Did you try to root with framaroot or tools like these ?
Did you try to upgrade to Android 4.4.2 ?
If your bootloader is unlocked you can try to flash a stock firmware with Kitkat 4.4.2.
I suggest not flashing recovery before updating Android to 4.4.2 as TWRP broke my phone if it wasn't at last stock Version (red lines everywhere and phone heating a lot).
I think you can try flashing the ROM you linked as it is for G7105.

Hey guys, I got an Samsung Galaxy Note3 That really stuck on logo before flashing the device. The model number is SM-N9005. I tried to flash the device with the never version of Android and it doesn't work. I tried to flash with the older version and custom rom but it still did the same. I can't figure it out what's the problem. I hope you guys help me out with this issues. I use odin v3.0.7 and if you guys had any suggestion using the other device please let me know about it. Thanks
Just download the stock firmware for your device
Just download the stock firmware for your device from sammobile.com it's free and flash it with Odin
This will put you on 5.0 lollipop but then you can just flash twrp and install any other custom ROM and btw I think that the problem you are facing is because you didn't flash the new bootloader and modem for the ROM you tried installing.
