Nothing more
Flash cf auto root and flash with Odin for pda tab. And done.
Though you need to reset counter if you want to keep device ready to claim warranty.

i believe that method is for GT-N7100 models only. You should check the Other GN2 section

Yes sorry my bad!!!
I tried to install apk bot says "App not installed"?
do I need to install the "Meta-Inf" file too
cheers

I am not a developer but if my understanding is correct the meta-inf is the file used to check the apk file and make sure it has not been corrupted or tampered with before install. You may need to review that file or ask someone more knowledgeable.

u can try the wanam rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2125101 here or go to sammobile and search for the latest stock firmware for n7105 , as u have less of option compared to n7100 so wanam is the best option if u like touchwiz

Have you flashed this on your T-Mobile Note 3?

No I have not.

****DO NOT FLASH THIS ******
***IF YOU DO YOU WILL BE STUCK ON IT****
There is no way to downgrade because of the new bootloader...

I know with the s4 ( and note 2 i believe) when flashing the update without the boot loader Wifi/Bt/Nfc didn't work. you needed to flash a .zip to fix

I hope the existing zip works

Now things are starting to get interesting for the Note

I just wanna see what kind of speed bump I get lol. I already have crazy speed and benchmark scores lol

Its a 20hour download lol. If anyone actually has this file PLEASE create a torrent.

Can't wait to see a modified KK ROM by a 9005/900T dev so I can do a test install. We'll probably see one late tonight or in the next few days since someone always wants to be the first to release one.

thats probably cause everyone and their grandma is downloading it right now.

Looking forward to a flashable zip. Will be nice to have Kit Kat without the poor battery life currently in CM

I would make a rom of the leak , I was the first one to do it for the sprint s4 when 4.3 was first released and CDMA is harder then gsm but my rom making computer is down : / so I gotta wait

You can flash it as is but you will be stuck on this and only this build. Reason being it updates your bootloader..
