Hey guys,
I might have found a Verizon Note 3 still running 4.4.2. According to what I am reading on these forums, this phone should still be rootable and I should be able to install a custom lollipop rom on it correct?

Hi, I am new to rooting the android. I tried looking around but couldn't find a clear guide.
I am looking on how to update my verizon Galaxy Note 3 that's on version 4.3 MJ7 (Hyperdrive RLS4 rom, model N900V) while preserving the root. Or would I have to loose root for a while and then re-root? Ultimately I am looking to install the newest Hyperdrive rom, but I believe I would have to update the stock firmware first?
Would be great to get some tips on how to do this. Thanks!

I purchased a used note 3 that is rooted and its running on 4.3 jellybean.I want to upgrade it to 4.4 kitkat but obvious it can't be done through ota update as i am totally noob in these thing.please guide me how to do it i don't want to brick my phone using wrong firmwares.
I searched on forum and i found out that most of the roms cfws are for note 3 4.4 now.I haven't done anything like this before so please help this newbie out of this.
flash with odin stock KK and root it with cf auto root and flash custom rom
Getting my note 3 from o2 UK tomorrow, 1st thing i want to do is root! Is it the same procedure as my s4 or is it completely
different, can lollipop be rooted yet? or do i have to root kitkat 1st? What is the easiest way to root/flash custom recovery?
The only other thing is i dont know what version of the note 3 i am getting yet, upgraded online, i am assuming its the N9000
cheers
So, you have plenty of time till tomorrow to do some Google searching. There are thousands of how to's on the Web.

If your phone comes with an unlocked bootloader then rooting is easy, as easy as S4, and same procedure. For Lollipop, just flash the latest TWRP (2.8.5.0) and flash the latest SuperSU zip from the recovery and you are done. No, there's no need to root KitKat first to be able to root Lollipop.
It is the same process rooting L & KK.:laugh:
Hello, I apologize if this has been covered before (I've been only able to find information regarding 4.4.2 to 5.0) but I am wondering if I would have any issues with updating to Jasmine ROM from 4.3 for my Verizon Note 3 that is being used on T-Mobile's network. My phone is already rooted so I would just need to install Safestrap and flash the new ROM correct? Sorry again for the very basic question; I am very new to flashing. Thanks in advance for any help!
Hi all,
I am currently on the newest version of android for note 3, 5.0, bootloader end with DOH1. I am tired of using lollipop now so I want to downgrade to the stock firmware 4.3. I did try to do it by using Odin few months ago but failed. The reason maybe that Samsung doesn't allow the downgrade of bootloader so I have to stick with lollipop for good. Just want to confirm whether that true? And is there any way to get around it? I don't care to tirp the KNox counter at all as I am out of the warrenty period anyway. Preferably official firmware instead of custom Rom.
Thank you in advance!
