Hey guys for some reason i had a weird update to my uk unlocked note 3 (n9005) which messed up my phone. I have tried to install an android 5.0 from sammobile files but its not the right one even though it works, is there a link i can download the latest offical rom to fix whats happened as i cant use some of my games due to an apparent root that i dont have lol
Pls delete other post admin thx

sammobile.com or samsung_updates .com
Thats where i got my rom from to try and fix this but hasnt helped at all, wish i could have backed up the rom before i did the update but as it was non rooted i couldnt, worst thing is i dont know where this update came from as apparently there was no official android 6.0 for note 3

yes never has been a 6 release .
If you have custom recovery try format system data cache .
Boot to download mode and flash a stock rom through Odin
Thats what i had to do to get it sort of working, only problem its the wrong rom and im stuck trying to find the correct uk unlocked rom

The touch problem in chrome (where the touch and the actual registering area was different) seems to be fixed now.

Hi Severoprisan,
Thanks for the tip!
Two questions:
1) I have rooted my Note8, I guess I cannot upgrade the usual way thu ODIN or yes?
2) Can I use a alternative country rom to flash my Belgian Note8, France perhaps?
When referring to "WiFi" it means wifi only, so I cannot use it to flash my Note with 3G I guess...
Thanks for your valuable tips!
1 You can update with odin. No problem. Then use Cf-autoroot to root again.
2 This ROM is for Germany zone. But no problem using it in Romania.
And this ROM is for Note 8 wifi+3G

it wont tripp knox and as your in uk knox dont matter we are void from knox some law
Ah right I thought using odin would trip knox, will I not need to update my bootloader in order to install the Polish firmware?
Also will i be able to revert back to the UK firmware once it has been released?
Thanks guys

yes you have to get bootloader and when uk comes out you might have to flash again with odin

heres the update if you want to do it
but you cant go back to 4.3 and ive read 4.4.2 is a bit buggy
Maybe that's why they haven't rolled it out in other countries yet, I will probably just wait then because I use my note 3 as my daily driver so I'd rather it was 100%

same for me,only thing that don't work is sky sports mobile
there is no need to install a different bootloader
I chose the Spotify package and can confirm that it works fine. .when I first flashed I had a Samsung keyboard issue, but did a full factory reset and it's gone now..also rooted and cwm recovery installed with no issues..

I have a note 3 locked to 3 carrier..if I download the leaked update and flash it using Odin (my fone is not rooted) will it cause any problems?
Since my fone is carrier locked and 3 haven't pushed an update yet.
Thanks in advance
P.s I'm a total noon at flashing so sorry in advance for dumb questions.

I think it is not a 100% safe thing to try to update a carrier-locked Note3 - given that you also do not have a lot of experience I would suggest waiting a little more (and in the meantime reading in the many threads around and searching for somobody else with a carrier-locked Note 3 from the same 3 UK carrier).
You can get a free unlock code from three, got mine installed polish kit kat no problems.

Just to mention that some 3rd party apps still require updates from developers to work on 4.4 so if you don't mind waiting a month or two this should also give them time too.
So if I get it unlocked, then its OK to flash the official update?
Basically I just want yo know the effect of flashing an official ROM on a carrier locked fone.
Yeah I've been reading the threads so I know how to flash it using Odin.just wanted to know will it be OK or will my fone go KU-KU
Sorry if I'm eating your brains

You can flash even if it's network locked. It will stay network locked... But won't be a problem. You can also get your phone unlocked free from three.

You will loose root unless you use mobile odin with the keep root feature, and boot into download, then flash the bootloader. I don't think there's a de la vega style root on 4.4.
My note 3 is running the belgian 4.4.2 I downloaded from Sam mobile and flashed with odin, though the phone says it is a custom rom and when I click check for updates it also says phone is modified.
Anyone know what the problem is here and how I can restore ota updates?
The phone was rooted when i was on 4.3 but I have flashed first the Polish and then the Belgian 4.4s via odin

You can't go back to JB from KK... You may as well have said to connect to Kies and let that fix it...
To the Op, check if your Knox warranty void has been tripped, if it has you may as well root and install a custom rom and/or recovery, or at the very least xposed framework.
You can't reset theKnox but you can use a mod to trick the system into thinking its official which will allow OTA updates. You may need a couple of things to be active so the OTA will install but I'll let you look that up.

Nope, once the bootlader has been upgraded there's no way to go back....
So once knox has been Tripped you cant get ota updates even on an official rom?

Used to read about a bug on samsung phones where if it contains too many files it would show system status as modified. Try transfer as much as your files from phone memory into sdcard then remove it. Then check again system status. It sounds crazy but i'm pretty sure that's my understanding from the thread

If you have an SD Card remove it then boot up. Sometimes causes issues.

That's what I just did from the post above and it hasn't changed anything, I also reflashed the rom with odin and it's still the same...

Strange, when flashing back to complete stock everything goes back to official (bar knox of course) - did you try the xeo? It's possible if you've used another firmware (carrier or country) the device may not like it.
Also a complete wipe may help too.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Well when I reflashed and it didn't work I did a factory reset and cleared the cache to no prevail.
What's the xeo mate?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
Mine is the same. I went to stock because my official kit kat came out. VIA O2 germany.
Still says custom. Might root and try triangle away. Not sure if I want to re set all back up again today though

Has KK implemented a non return to official status then?

Not sure but maybe if I install the btu when that comes out it will go back to official

Possibly, if they've changed it. That's put the sh...ter up everyone now.. darn Samsung! ! Blergh. . They love alienating people huh.

Your KNOX will always 0x1, so at first download official firmware from sammobile.com than download odin, in AP choose your extracted firmware md5 file and flash it after successfully flashing it must say PASS! when your phone finishes booting go to recovery and factory reset.

Is there a selection of firmware which I will download or I will just select for the Note 3 9005? Since this is the first time doing that kind of flashing and rooting.. BTW after I flash the firmware and factory reset I can proceed in rooting?
yes go to firmwares and choose what region you want I have n900 but on n9005 I preffer BTU britain firmware, after that you can root your phone using cfautoroot

Can I flash directly for Kitkat? Or do I need to flash the original firmware first before I update to kitkat. Sorry for asking too much question newbie here Lol!
no problem if I know I share my opinion you can flash whatever you want, if you want KK or JB but you must know that you can't downgrade kitkat to jellybean so you choose

Hello guys i have a samsung LTE note 3 , singapore version.
I am using the phone in India.
there are many note 3 that have got the lollipop version.
baseband N9005DXUGNK1
version 4.4.2
1. can i flash the UK (vodafone) lollipop version on my phone via ODIN ?
2. will it trip my knox after flashing?
3. Will i have to unlock my phone after flashing to use Indian sim? (because when i got the phone i did not have to unlock it)
Better if you flash poland one.

What is the reason that I should flash Poland? Because I have already downloaded the UK version .
And is it safe to flash
