Hello i tried to install android 5.0 lollipop on my galaxy note 3 with cyanogenmod 12 and when i rebooted the system everything started to stop working before it even starts the system. And then i tried to restore it and the same happened. What can i do to restore it to its previous state?
Hello...
To test the ROM have you had action before.
And by odin if you can be 4 files better with his PIT.
Before this I had a f2fs android 5.0 ROM.Today I tried to flash a 4.4.4 ROM((f2fs too,of course),updated to the latest recovery version,wiped everything I could(yes,I changed back to f2fs),but I got stuck in a bootloop.Tried with another ROM,same result.What should I do? Does it have something to do with the fact that I try to flash a kitkat rom after a lolipop one?
Hello..somedays back i tried to flash cm 12 available for my device..but after showing flashing complete successfully my mobile got stuck in odin mode...showing an error can't do normal boot..so i applied the stock rom..but the stock rom was 5.0.1 lollipop... It was an official update..now my phone works fine..except root..whenever i am trying to root it is rooting..but after rooting if i power off or reboot the phn...everything got crashed and force close.
Even my default launcher is also force closing (including each and every app)..
What should i do???plz help
?????
Don't have much knowledge about this but IMO you should factory reset your a5 and than try to flash stock rom again.
Wipe all partitions using twrp and flash stock rom again using odin..don't forget to backup your data
can you tell me how you rooted your device at first...............................................?
Sorry if I'm posting in wrong section actually I'm a newbie
Hi all, I've updated my Note 3 SM-N900 to Cm 14 nougat 7.1.1 unofficial lonage os by ha_3g. Now i want to go back to my stock Twiz 5.0 lollipop, is it possible I've all my rom backedup by TWRP. Can i restore my backup without any problem?
Thanks in advance
nah,usually i just flash my firmware using odin without backup
Usually if you want to revert back to stock firmware, everything will be removed, including your custom recover(TWRP in this case), miscellaneous files and folders that were previously on your custom ROM. So, in summary, you won't be able to recover your backed up apps/data as TWRP will get wiped out as well, being replaced by the stock Samsung recovery.
Yep, wipe system, data, cache & dalvik then restore your backup.
Before updating I've backed up my stock Twiz rom via TWRP, now i just want to revert back to my Stock rom which was lollipop 5.0. I'm afraid bcz I've seen some where that we cannot install 5.0 (lower version) over 7.1 (greater) version it will brick the phone bcz of some bootloader issues, btw I've not messed up with bootloader, so plz advise me if it will be safe or not.
Lot of Thanks for the members of the forum who replied in no time & who r ready to help. Salute to all of u. you people r great
Only a stock firmware flashed with Odin can upgrade your bootloader.
And the latest official firmware for Note 3 is Lollipop 5.0.
So your bootloader still 5.0 even if you flashed a nougat rom.
Even more, custom roms don't touch bootloader or modem partitions, ever.
Go ahead
Hey bro. Just go to sammobile.com and download your rom and flash via Odin. Only Odin can downgrade your BL and Modem
Thanks alot for the clarification I'll go ahead now.
I can swap between 7.1 Nougat and 5.0 stock, with no issues, through my nandroids.
If you had a nandroid before, you shouldn't have any issue just using the TWRP function to restore your backup. It will be exactly as you had it before.
The only difference will be that you will still have TWRP installed, etc.
Anyways, you can swap back and forth as much as you like. You don't have to wipe anything, or use Odin, since you made a nandroid already.
Yes you can go back to lollipop . I have done that in my sm 900 exynos version. marshmallow and nougat drains battery
Hey everyone, i want to downgrade to 4.3 or 4.4.2 or maybe 4.4.4 to stock version, because i hate lollipop. when odin says pas.. the phone loading in samsung logo ant continues about 15min and not load to welcome screen, so my phone is updated to latest 5,0 android? and i cant downgrade to low android version? ;//
After a successful flash using Odin, reboot to recovery, wipe data (factory reset) then reboot.
