N900A_OC1_Lollipop_Stock_Rooted_Backup.zip
5. Install OC1 Kernel
SM-N900A_N900AUCUEOC1_KERNEL_Recovery-Flashable.zip
6. (I did a factory wipe , but Warning you will loose UserData settings and Apps you installed) You might try without but if you had a custom SystemUI and Touchwiz as I did it might FC because you have setting in Userdata pertaining to the Custom apps that you will over write with the OC1 backup.
7. Select Reboot and then select Recovery to boot to stock recovery and install as a update from external storage. mine installed with no issues.
8. To get safe strap back working Download and copy Safestrap-HLTEATT-NC2-3.75-B03[1].apk to sdcard (if you have not done yet)
9. Download and copy NC2 Flasher by benwaffle
10. Install Safestrap-HLTEATT-NC2-3.75-B03, run app and install recovery ( do not press reboot to recovery, it will only take you to stock recovery)
11. Install NC2 Flasher app and then use it to boot to recovery.
12. Do a backup of your new OC2
Now you can customized and do what you want

This thread saved my butt two nights ago. Soft bricked my phone and this got me back and running. I'd say this is the other "restore to mj5" thread. I had no ROM on my phone and rebooted then got stuck on galaxy note 3 screen. It's even way easier than the restore to mj5 method. Thank you so much, Carl!

since you did the MGL odin ver 2, you need to just odin install the NC2 firmware to replace MGL's apnhlos
NC2_Bootloader_N900AUCECMLG_VER_3 already had the correct NC2 firmware except the recovery, OTA will patch the recovery
also next time You have trouble with busybox uninstalling, just reboot the phone it will finish, when you try againg it shows it not installed, busybox app bug

UPDATE!!!!!!
Video Guide for Installing and Using Safestrap by Face_Plant
Installing Safestrap v3.72 by Face_Plant:good:
1. Download and install Busybox from the Play Store.
2. Download and install Safestrap v3.72
3. Open Safestrap and click on "install recovery"
4. Reboot and you should see a screen with a robot thing on it. Press the button on the lower left of the screen to boot into Safestrap
5. Make a backup of your stock ROM
6. Go to wipe and do a factory reset
7. Go to install and select the ROM you wish to install
8. Reboot after it's done installing
Tips:
1. I recommend saving all backups to your external SD card in case you accidentally wipe your internal storage
2. NEVER USE THE FORMAT DATA FEATURE!!! This will completely wipeout the stock slot on your phone and brick it. You will not be able to boot into Safestrap to recover (ask me how I know....)
You can use the ROM slots, but the reboot menu will not work. You have to pull the battery to shut it down. You will also get notifications that you're running out of storage. I looked at the storage info in settings after getting this notification and it said ~25 gigs were required to run the ROM as opposed to the 6GB or so that's normally required.
**************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************ROOT FIX !!
Thanks to geohot
Install N900AATTCNC2_KERNEL.tar.md5 Kernel (3.4.0-722276) with Odin then
Towel Root will work TR.apk
Odin Install
Verify Kernel Install
Verify Root Root Checker
Now You can Install SafeStrap 3.7.2 and install any custom ROM YOU NEED BUSYBOX FOR SAFESTRAP to WORK
Do a factory reset from Safestrap

First Copy sec_csc.zip to your external SD-Card ( you have to get one if you do not have one)
Then install with ODIN the 4 files from NC2_Bootloader_Odin3_Install_N900AUCECMGL.zip
Make Sure Your ODIN Looks Like the Picture here
After Odin reboots your phone, Immediately Hold Down POWER + MENU + VOLUME UP BUTTON and get into recovery and install sec_csc.zip
You Cannot Use this Copy of MGL KitKat to down-grade to 4.3
Once You Updated to NC2 KitKat Your stuck cannot go back, your are burn to fuse 3
The Only thing changed in the BL_N900AUCECMGL.tar
is the [aboot] file
from the OTA NC2 Update. So this is not a FULL NC2 Firmware
I used sgs2toext4 (created by drphrozen ) to convert cache.img.ext4 to cache.img.ext4.img
then used ext2explore to unpack cache.img.ext4.img
UnPacked You find the sec_csc.zip and command files in it.
command file did this with original Install :
--update_package=CACHE:recovery/sec_csc.zip
--carry_out=csc_factory
--wipe_data
unzipping sec_csc.zip we find security files and AT&T setup
Updater script in META-INF Folder
show_progress(0.100000, 0);
show_progress(0.500000, 0);

Not This copy, once you update to OTA kitkat you cannot go back
Nice. Hopefully this will help out people who accidently only updated to NC2 bootloader. By the way, once the full NC2 is released you should flash that so that you can get future OTAs

yes, been watching for it :fingers-crossed:
It works on a bricked Note 3 AT&T after stock KitKat upgrade
Nothing else worked for me - dozens of "unbrick Note 3 AT&T" threads had the same outdated info and files, which the new bootloader of AT&T KitKat would not take. The phone was simply stuck in boot loop - neither system nor recovery would not boot. The only thing I could do was enter the Odin download mode with Volume down + Home + Power keys. Carl helped me with this file, flashed with Odin as described at the start of this thread and my phone started working at once. The system was upgraded to the leaked KitKat Android 4.4.2. My data was not lost nor the phone was reset, even after I flashed sec_csc.zip under recovery (I used adb sideload method, but it's not relevant, flashing from SD card or phone memory would probably work the same).
Thank you again, Carl, for your patience, preparing and uploading this huge file for us!!! You are really a very smart person to figure all of this out and get us out of a tight corner!

I'll be rather watching for a root method for my phone, and when this is back, will see if I can get CyanogenMod working on my Note 3, or something similar (maybe OmniROM will start supporting it too?) Don't want anything from AT&T anymore, if I can avoid it! In the future probably won't buy another Samsung device.
Greg
This guide and method is really helpful when one accidentally installed NC2 bootloader before installing NC2 system.
Thank you! You are the man!

if so try reinstalling the 2400258.zip from recovery, or sideloading with adb from stock recovery.

I'm uploaded AP_N900AUCECMGL_N900TUVUCNB4_NC2_BOOT.IMG_MGL_RECOVERY.tar.zip
try installing it with Odin, then see if you can boot into recovery and reinstall the OTA update, it will only work if your original OTA is still there and it can see in build prop
file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "samsung/hlteuc/hlteatt:4.3/JSS15J/N900AUCUBNB4:user/release-keys" ||
file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "samsung/hlteuc/hlteatt:4.4.2/KOT49H/N900AUCUCNC2:user/release-keys" ||
if it complains then you have to get this rom in this thread installed with odin
I was rooted, running NC2 ROM, made a newb mistake and had to use this so I'm on stock unrooted MLG. I never did the OTA to NC2 but I do have A3 status. Can I downgrade to regain root or no?

No if your download mode shows a A3 then your stuck. what NC2 rom where you running with root? Some DEV's have used the build.prop from a NC2 OTA update so your phone showed it was NC2.
This threads OP warned that it contains the new bootloader (A3), so installing it would have installed the new bootloader.

so has anyone succed rooting the 900h version and how and do you advice me to wait or keep trying and risking to brick it
thanks in advance for interest and answer
no one have the 900h variant ??? :crying:
for those interested the problem was from reactivation lock that's it ,question ansered by my self
You need to enter into security settings and disable Reactivation Lock. After procedure you can turn it on again.
I habe G900H version and everything gone ok. Piece of cake.
I've been through some serious root problems. When I root successfully. I have flash cook rom 4.2 JB and memory partitions in the device's successful I lost root. Luckily I have TWRP 2.5.0.0. Then I tried to re-root your device by supersu.zip but without success. I also use framaroot failed. I finally copied the su binary file in system / xbin and copy files supersu.apk in system / app but I still can not get root. So how to root this device. My device is lenovo-p770 rom: 4.2 JB

I've been through some serious root problems. When I root successfully. I have flash cook rom 4.2 JB and memory partitions in the device's successful I lost root. Luckily I have TWRP 2.5.0.0. Then I tried to re-root your device by supersu.zip but without success. I also use framaroot failed. I finally copied the su binary file in system / xbin and copy files supersu.apk in system / app but I still can not get root. So how to root this device. My device is lenovo-p770 rom: 4.2 JB

You are advised to report this at Lenovo's section
Can you please list down the steps you used to root the G900h?
I have one too and soft bricked it while trying to use cf. Don't want that to happen again.

hello guys. .
I have 3 problems regarding my Samsung galaxy s5 SM G900H . .
1)I have recently rooted with cf auto root via ODIN. . BT by default I got super su version 2.68 which it beta app. . .even play store have version2.65 as latest version. . .super su keeps on asking for binary update. .when I try to update it normally,it always gets failed. .
2)I thought if I could install cwm/twrp recovery I could install super su version 2.65 and fix the binary issue. . I got the cwm recovery and flashes it via ODIN. . .cwm was installed. .BT it shows mount issues and seems to have reading SD card issues. . I can't backup to my SD card or so. . .
this is the text which I see when open cwm recovery. . .even when I installed Phil's recovery from rashr recovery tools. . ven Phil's recovery showed same issues. .
3)I have installed flashfire in my Samsung galaxy s5. . it shows the following warning. . .
I just want to backup my current stock ROM and move to s6 ROM for my Samsung galaxy s5 SM G900H. . .if you have any working alternatives feel free to suggest. . .
please help. .

You can't flash Lollipop firmware BTU (unlocked version) if your device is branded to T-mobile (EE). You will have to come back to Kit Kat:
1. Download this firmware: HERE.
2. Unzip and flash it via ODIN unticking "AUTOREBOOT" (like in the pic attached). Let the process finish.
3. Take out the battery for 10 sec. and put it in again. Reboot in STOCK RECOVERY and Wipe data/Factory reset. "Reboot system now" then.
4. Good luck :highfive:
Ok going to try that!
5 hours left to download :|! Hopefully that will work!
No other download portals? Not really worth the money to pay 7Euro just to download 1 file :'(!
So the only way to get 5.0.1 is to wait or root?
Thanks for the reply! <3!

Yep. But rooting opens a whole new world of possibilities.
Even if you stay on stock rom, you can still do useful stuff.

Can you link me a guide to rooting guide for i9505 S4, with a stock ROM! I want it to look like the normal official ROM! I am kinda a noob at this stuff, as you can see from messing up a simple update by not checking if it actually works on me EE handset :'(!
Seeing as I have to wait 3 hours more for the 4.4.2 to download, I might aswell root it to 5.0.1 as you say, if it's fully functioning!

You only need to install a custom recover, but this won't require root. You will need root only if you want to backup your apps.
Touchwiz Lollipop Official Deodexed Rom for I9505 [LRX22C.I9505XXUHOB7]
[ROM] [5.0.1] [XXUHOB7] [STOCK] AMBASADII [KNOX 0x0] [DE-BLOATED] [MULTI-CSC]
[ROM][TW][OB8][LOLLIPOP][5.0.1] Imperium LL v2.0 [FAST][SMOOTH][STABLE][19/03/15]
Those are the 3 roms that appear on the first page of the i9505 android development section. I don't use any of those, I prefer GPE or AOSP. Currently using GPE.

Well when flashing the different recoveries. I was trying to get working it said back up current recovery in Flashify so I did but forgot to move it to my SD card. then i flashed it thats where i was pretty sure that recoveries were different files but written the same way as roms or AP's in ODIN. but then when I went to test it out my phone is stuck in a boot loop with no recovery and I've been trying to use ODIN to try and flash a stock on but it keeps failing.

That is your firmware , correct . Unrar it and put it in the correct ODIN slots and flash .
PB5 and newer versions have been posted for a while now. Flash the latest and you'll be fine
Yea thanks all the help guys. Called Samsung and acted like the phone just stated doing it then she was like take it to your nearest best buy and have them reflash it so after I took it up there they used there ODIN like program and then boom! it was working.
