Ok so, I did the update and now I have to reroot and unlock. From what I understand, freegee works on ZVC too...can anyone else verify? I heard it from Engine95

Thanks for the heads up! I need to let my wife know to not accept the update until we have confirmed that bootloader can be unlocked and root achieved on the new OTA. We just got her phone back from insurance and I have not had the chance to re-root yet.

Root and Unlock is confirmed on zvc bin. The update should be no different. Fyi. To be able to install the update, you MUST have be totally stock ROM. Absolutely no changes.
Follow the Root guide. It'll guide you through the process.

You can try to install the update. It'll fail if it finds something it doesn't like. If I remember right, if it fails, just reboot. Nothing should be changed.

Very good.
So your bootloader was not unlocked? Yesterday I thought you rooted and unlocked?
If you were unlocked, see if you still have TWRP as your recovery, Please.

Now you've really got me confused.
You just said you were unlocked.
And yet this was your post in another thread. "Yep. Installed it...nothing changed. Gotta reroot and unlock again but Engine95 said freegee works with zvc"
Set me straight please.

I see. Ok, well I rooted and unlocked my bootloader yesterday. Today I received the update and installed it. When the phone rebooted to install the update, it went to TWRP. Then when the update finished, it booted normally. When I say nothing changed, I meant nothing with my software. Everything was left the same, even my notifications. When I tried to boot into the boot loader, it booted normally so I checked if my phone was still rooted and it wasn't. In a previous thread, you said that freegee and root are confirmed working on ZVC, that's what I was referring to because I'm gonna have to reroot and unlock again since the update unrooted and locked the bootloader.

Gotcha.
We have to have all updates before rooting and unlocking.
I can't remember if this is what it did when zvb came out our not. But we also couldn't unlock zvb for a while. So we avoided taking the update.
Anyway root and FreeGee will take care of you again as they do work on zvc.

TWRP? Don't ota updates require a stock recovery or else they fail? Are you sure your phone didn't boot without installing anything like it would normally do on other phones with custom recoveries? Did you check your phones about section to make sure you're on ZVC??

Even I did the same thing as you. Installed the update on a rooted and unlocked phone, it went to TWRP, update was installed, after that rebooted and it was all stock with bootloader locked. Data was not wiped, all apps including Super SU was there but no root. It says ZVC in the settings, and google apps are updated.

So when you flashed zvb, you wiped /system, /cache, /data, and /dalvic?
might need to wipe your SD too then. Sometimes it just gets messed up.

MiataROM 4.3

THIS IS A TEST ROM​
This rom is just a test for the i317 using the leaked 4.3 files from the n7100 including all the Note 3 features...
I'm not sure if this will even boot on your phone but I no longer have a Note 2 to test it out.
MAKE SURE YOU BACKUP YOUR PHONE BEFORE CONTINUING!!!
1. Download ROM - Torrent
2. Copy zip to sd card
3. COMPLETELY WIPE YOUR PHONE (important step)
4. Flash zip with cwm
5. Reboot and hopefully enjoy 4.3 with all Note 3 features!

It could be an issue with the kernel not being supplied from 4.3. I'll look into it more.

Sorry. Wiped x 3 just to be sure. Twrp flashed. Boots to Galaxy screen then goes to black and vibrates 2 times every 7 seconds. Any other method you want me to try?
Thanks for the file. Maybe one of the other dev want to look this over?

Update:
I was able to dirty flash over SkyNote 4.3. Boots but doesn't work well with blue tooth. wiped and FC bluetooth and cleared data but still FC and won't turn on. wifi and data still worked.
SO it is somewhat comparable, must need a boot loader to install cleanly on i317.

Oh! so close........maybe sean can take a look at this?

thanks for the file sharing,
but will n7100 kernel work in n7105?
and any issue for knox?
can be downgraded?
will try

Why dont you just try using the leaked ATT image as a base instead?

You flashed an hboot (or attempted to) to the boot partition (kernel). Flashify isn't meant to flash hboots. Only boot(kernel) and recovery (recovery).
I only update hboot from the hboot bootloader menu (safer).
Sounds like if you had flashed a kernel back you would have been good.

FYI - confirm

I just restored my own Note 4 to factory using this method. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1984717 I'm not sure how long this will work by so fare so good. I'm guessing when At&t get OTA this will not work any more.
Happy testing.

So what would be the benefit of using that method versus using the normal factory reset? Or what are you trying to accomplish? Just curious. ..[emoji2]

From the looks of it this will reflash your device should you do some experimentations that make it unbootable so long as you can get into download mode.

Like post above mine. You can test your device and even if you do something to it and only you can boot to download mode you can restore to factory settings this way.

An odin flash can't reset a counter, but Knox won't trip if it's official firmware.. It's only an issue when you get into root/kernel/recovery

I don't think it is if you trip any. I use it triangle away on other devices, but you can't here since we have no root yet.
