Samsung is testing new Touchwiz UX Beta on Galaxy Note 5 ( korea and china region only)
I have received an OTA for testing new Touchwiz UX Beta and now I will show you how it look by a full video review .
https://youtu.be/twrMfK67CTM
Honestly this new UI looks awesome, too bad it'll take forever for US carriers to get it.

if knox is tripped no OTA for u man, same here. Sucks, have to download the firmware and flash
You can still get OTA with Knox tripped so long as you are on stock firmware.

Hi,
I recently got a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 as a birthday gift and I was using an iPhone 5 before this.
I have a few questions which I would like to ask as a complete noob on Samsung and Android...
1) I wanted to know about rooting....if I root my Note 3, I read that the warranty becomes void but is there any way to root it without losing warranty?
2) I am currently running Android 4.3 Jellybean, is there anyway to update it to Kitkat as until now my country did not get the kitkat update? I am currently living in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
3) Will there be an S5 Camera app for the note 3 as I hate the default camera app on my note 3 and would like to get a better default camera app?
Thanks

I can only reply to one question.
To update your firmware goto sammobile.com download the proper firmware on your computer.
Use odin to flash it to your device.
Search xda for detailed info.

All of these questions could have been answred with some reading but anyways...
1. On 4.3 it is possible to root without tripping knox. On 4.4.2 it isn't.
Edit- Here searched a little for you and found a way to upgrade to 4.4.2 with root and not trip knox binary counter.. Knew it was there but didn't know how since I rooted and tripped knox 5 mins after getting the phone...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49935779&postcount=488
2. Read the return to stock guided linked in my sig, follow it to upgrade to 4.4.2
3. There are some s5 apps that have been ported to note 3 in the themes and apps section, check it out

1) You can root without tripping Knox ( loose warranty ) provided that the last 3 digit of your phone's firmware is MJ3 or below ( few people though post that MJ4 can be rooted using Kingoapp without tripping Knox but can't be sure about that ).
2) It can be updated to Kitkat using non-carrier specific firmware
3) Check the Themes And Apps section for an S5 camera.

Hey Khizar,
Thanks mate for helping me out. I want to first upgrade my device to 4.4.2 and then root it to install the Samsung Galaxy S5 Camera App along with some other phone camera app (if possible)...don't care about warranty that much but it would be nice if it was possible to still keep the warranty if needed in the future and install these apps....
Anyways I was reading the thread from your signature and something about Bootloader being locked was mentioned if updated from JB to KK...what does that mean?
I have more questions as I am such a big noob as this is my first time using an Android Phone but first I want to upgrade it to Kitkat

Hey hey_joe,
thanks for the reply mate...from where do I get the non-carrier specific firmware for my note 3..
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
You should also be aware that there is no way to reinstall any 4.3 firmware after you've flashed 4.4.2 (Kitkat).

Thanks B3311. Yup I am not worried about reinstalling the 4.3 firmware since I will be on the latest 4.4.2.
Yay!!!!!Finally after several tries...I was able to Flash my phone to 4.4.2 Kitkat....
Hey guys....
I just wanted to know that apart from themer....are there any apps that apply theme to the full phone including the lock screen and has much more themes as compared to themer?
Cheers
I have n9005 rooted so I think I wont get OTA update. Should I update to 4.4.2 and download firmware from sammobile is that reliable?
I dont know my phone is locked version or not.
On my galaxy s4 when I updated by odin I felt the phone became little slow.
I dont know should I do it on my note 3 or not
What do you guys on xda suggest?

I updated my phone to kit kat the same day that i got it, i havent noticed any slow downs at all, the only thing that i regret is that i update without thinking about a downgrade, so i whould sugest you to update using a firmware without a locked booloader.

Unless you have a specific model of Note 3 (N900W) the KK bootloader won't allow you to go back to JB.
If you have an N9005 I wouldn't recommend flashing N900W firmware as bricking can be upsetting...

Yes, but you can't go back to JB once you upgrade to KK...
Go to Sammobile.com to find out if your region has it. If not you can upgrade to another region's KK, just avoid carrier roms as they require a pit file to flash too...

1. Mine never has.
2. At Sammobile it says - UK (Vodafone) - this is a carrier rom.
If it says UK then its a generic stock rom...
You will have to re-root after update but make sure its the KK cf-autoroot (if you use that).
As you are rooted I'm assuming you have Knox warranty void at 0x1.
If not do a search on how to update to KK using Mobile ODIN, that way you can retain root but still have Knox at 0x0...

Good God man, you've been a member here since 2006 and you still want spoonfeeding?! Search for the link yourself, it'll take about 30 seconds of your precious time.
I notice some newer custom 4.4.2 Note 3 ROMS have the Note 4 S-Pen features, like Smart Select. Is there any way of getting this working on a current 4.4.2 ROM? I'm happy with my current stock rom which is rooted and has an S5 theme applied via Xposed. Also, my Knox is at 0x0 and I would like to keep it that way so installing another ROM with Note 4 features doesn't appeal that much unless it involves Mobile Odin Pro to keep my Knox intact.
I'm thinking something along the lines of a service APK replacement in /system/app or /system/priv-app?
Cheers if anyone has an answer for this,
You can't. Samsung didn't want to release 4.4.4 on our phone, and note 4 apk work only on 4.4.4 (I have tried) . So we must wait lollipop for note 4 functions, and we will have also the same UI.

Strange, how come features like Smart Select are confirmed as working on v6 of that ROM?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
I will give a look. But I don't think if had the same note 4 Spen features
Android 4.4.4 fo note 3 n900 release date?
N9005 will note receive any update to 4.4.4
I will give 4.4.4 to note 3 (I'm working on it)

They are apparently, or for the most part anyway. Smart select definitely works which means it and the other features aren't reliant on 4.4.4 libraries.
I'm trying to find out what files need to be copied/replaced to get this working on my rooted stock 4.4.2 rom but so far it's like trying to get blood out of a stone. I have PMd g00h the rom author but no reply as of yet.
Anyone else have any idea?
I'm porting android 4.4.4.
I think is much easier than find app working on 4.4.2
More than likely. But I don't want to trip my knox flag, and there is no way to avoid doing that if I were to install a non-official 4.4.4 port. I'd much prefer just to modify the rom I currently run to include the new S-Pen features, and if there are other 4.4.2 roms that have these features, it must be possible to do.
Hi Pagnell how do you get the s5 complete theme via xposed? I'm also Knox 0x0, Thx.

Wondering this too. Flashing an official 910F version in Odin doesn't work, I wonder if we can however use 910F based custom ROMs? I believe the F model is the closest to the Aussie version as we normally get the same Sammy models are Europe, I think some additional bands to support CAT6 LTE for our networks was added in the G version which is the only difference.
Isnt that for a business. I should not need to install my knox. I paid $1000 for my phone the day it came out and KNOX should bloody work the piece of crap. Also when i boot into recovery it says INSTALLING UPDATE for about 45 secs, everytime i boot into it, so whats it installing???. Also i can do anything in recovery but when i reboot out of recovery it flashes a quick Error sign. Is this normal??? Can anybody shed some light. Samsung said its normal but i never had system update and error when booting into recovery in any other samsung device.
