Im getting one later today that has rooted Morom 6.5 Android 5.0 up there already on the galaxy note 4 verizon developer edition, can someone point me to the right direct or advice where i can downgrade it?
I love kitkat, and i dont want no lolipop , if someone can point where i can just put a clean NJ5 KITKAT firmware thats already rooted, or if anyone can recommend me a CM ( CM roms used to be my favorite in s3 and 4 days.. cleanest roms ever) or something thats actually kitkat but no bloatware etc and runs smoothly/faster near stock android.
sorry if this been asnwered before but all i can find is lolipop all over the note 4, and there is a high chance im blind! lol

ok, so im not new to android mods, rom flashing, kernel flashing or any of that jazz...
ive had many android devices over the years and will continue to have more as long as android doesnt flop.. but i doubt that happening
my issue is this, i have a bone stock TW rooted i317m on 4.1.2, it has been unlocked using the perso sha method, and has been modified to work with wind mobile in ontario via the .qcn file flash method... the device is operating just fine, no problems...
what i want from this device is customization and the question im asking hopefully will be answered with respect and NO newb bashing or ignorance
this is my first note based device... i fell in love with all the TW features that relate to the s-pen and best photo/best face.. i want to install custom rom, and kernel, but im afraid im going to lose all the feature that i bought the note for...
i know about the apps "CM S-Pen detection add-on" & "S-Pen Helper"
but i dont want to lose most importantly the camera features, and id like to still be able to use s-note and such, but im not sure if this is possible unless using a TW stock rom
any ideas??
there are tw based roms like clean rom, best international (using this one)
if you flash a aosp rom all the tw stuff is gone!
I personally dont use half the tw stuff so i might flash an aosp rom soon just for fun. But I have a galaxy nexus to play around with as well
ok so i flashed clean rom,
now my next question
is there a sphere mode camera mod available,
i really miss this from my galaxy nexus when it was running PA3+, i busted the lcd and glass,
got my note 2 now, and would love to see this come to it

Clean rom is real good if you just want a debloated version of stock. Real fast and stable. It was my daily driver for a while.
I am really into all the customization so I am running JEDI and NOVELLA now. Both are TW based and have a ton of MODs out for it.
As for the camera 4.2 is good too
Hi,
I have had my note 3 for a while now and am selling my Note 2 so i want to flash the most stable stock rom for UK as i dont want the new owner to have any problems with the phone. Any advise ? What rom should i go for ?
I have been using the 4.3 roms with Note 3 mods and also flashed the newest bootloader to make the 4.3 wifi work so now i am wondering if i am able to go back to 4.1 or 4.2 stock roms without any issues ?
Or if the above is impossible then is there any rom i can flash that don't have any kind of FC's what so ever ?
EDIT: nvm i figured it out. SOLVED
If you already updated the bootloader i think you will be not able to use a rom that is older than the 4.3, but to be sure just ask someone more expert than me
Hello guys i am newbie here from Turkey Istanbul
I used note 10.1 original one and then updated to 2014 edition because there was no update after 4.1.2
now its a de javu... my question is , is it clever to root and flash custom rom or stick with stock rom and wait for official updates?
I would like to flash custom rom but if there will be an official update that makes exynos works much more efficient and with new touchwiz i will devastate.
So guys i need opinions with clever reasons...
thanks a lot....
Why not do both? You can always go back to stock after rooting and it is likely the devs will get their hands on any release before it comes out officially.

Yess right but i use my note as a pc do all my works and my media on this tab so it is always hard and painfull for me to reset the tab.
I know no one has opinion about the date of official updates but it will come in a month i can sti k but if it will take decades i'll flash rom immedieatly
and also read that with custom roms we can use 4 multiapp function am i right.
and last question what is the best custom rom for our tab? Any opinions¿
I hear you... It can be... I've used titanium backup and it makes it less painful.
You are right, we never know when. Definitely can use any app you want for multi-window and yes there are 4 Windows available.

My P601 warranty depend on the KNOX Fuse

From my expirenece custom roms are totally unneccary on up to date devices.... if you want customisation get xposed installer .... stock rom gives you stability & all features .... debloat with titanium and youre totally fine .... get your neet extra features with xposed isntaller & gravity box / wanam exposed modules...
its funny when i ask ppl what their custom rom gives them .. they cant name a single feature I cant get on stock ....
if you have an old device with outdated firmware its another story
Salutations! Im wondering if it is a good idea for me to upgrade to Lolipop on the galaxy Tab S T800. Right now I am running stock rom, only because I still havent figured out how to get some good custom roms on my the device. My biggest concern though in upgrading is losing the ability to be able to use customs roms in the future if i choose to do so. I am still frustrated for updating my Galaxy s4 and having to use safestrap and being limited with which roms I could install. Is this a similar situation, that I will face if I do the upgrade. Also I havent found any good youtube vids walking me through how to get some good customs roms on the tab S.
Kind Regards!
Not much roms makers this days for our devices. Well IMO its ok to update to lollipop because the Rom is smooth makes everything snappy. As said in the thread there were those who are able to downgrade back to kitkat for some reason, so your bootloader wont be locked. And just wait lollipop roms will pop out soon
Hello everyone:
I am a new (used) Galaxy Note 3 owner. I bought an LG G2 3 weeks or so ago, spent that 3 weeks studying, rooting, installing recovery and finally installing and tweaking Cloudy G2 ROM. Just as I got my G2 running flawlessly it slipped from my shirt pocket as I was grilling, bounced off the grill and landed face down on the car port thus smashing the screen to pieces. :crying: What a waste of time installing that cheap screen protector the previous evening.
Anyway, I found a great deal on a used Note 3 so I went ahead and bought that rather than another G2. So now, I need to update my Note 3 just like I did the G2. Since I am running short on time at the moment I just want to get some ideas on where to start. I do intend to read everything I can on XDA but some helpful tips would really assist me with getting this finished sooner rather than later.
So....Right now the phone has stock 4.4.2 loaded and the knox counter is not tripped.
Baseband version is:N900TUVUCNB4
Security Software Version is:MDF v1.0 Release 2.
I am not at all familiar with this security stuff so any tips here on what exactly this is would be most appreciated.
My goal is:
1. root the device
2. install recovery prefer twrp but cwm will do if necessary
3. install a good ROM (Preferably Lollipop based ROM)
4. I would like to have xPosed Framework support too if possible. Of course this depends on the ROM I presume.
I have heard that Samsung Note 3 is a real bear to root. Also that the Odin software can be dangerous. I have no idea if this is true or not so please help me here.
I was also wondering whether it would be best to root the phone while on KitKat, or upgrade to stock lollipop first and then start the root/recovery process.
I'd really really appreciate all the help I can get from anyone that has owned a note 3 and has already been all through this process.
Thanks...Olin
Oh well, no replies? Man this Samsung device is rather overwhelming what with all the various scenarios. I am thinking of going with temasek's Unofficial CM12.1, or DOMPOP, or maybe Darklord. But I am still completely unsure whether to upgrade to stock Lollipop before I start on the root/recovery/ROM project. I also need to read everything I can find on these 3 roms.
But please, if you have any comments on which of these 3 ROMS is the best for the note 3 and/or comments on the best root/recovery method then by all means point me in the right direction.
Thanks so much for any help at all.
people just aren't as helpful around here as they used to be. Either that or not many use the note 3 anymore. But nevermind I figured it out anyway as I knew I eventually would.
Hey!
I'm sort of in the same boat as you..
would appreciate some feed back see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-tmobile/help/nexus-4-to-note-3-questions-t3173473

Hey Beegbear:
I have decided to stay with KitKat for now because of the fact you can't use the xPosed framework on Lollipop and the fact KitKat is just a more stable platform and has many more Roms available. I used this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2765014
to get my Note 3 on the newest stock KitKat rom, then root it, then install the latest TWRP recovery. I carefully followed the exact steps in this guide except that I did use a newer TWRP recovery I downloaded from: https://dl.twrp.me/hltetmo/twrp-2.8.7.0-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar
Other than using this newer TWRP I went step by step through this guide. I still plan on installing a custom KitKat rom but right now I am researching various roms to try and decide which one. But at least I have latest stock, root, and a good recovery right now.
I'd start with Tweaked. A flawless TW KK ROM. Only if unsatisfied would I bother with LP. Apparently the developer is working on an LP variant, but we'll see. He releases long after others, due to commitments, but well worth the wait. There is an xposed for LP available, but carefully research what modules work with it and compare to what you want.

Thanks a lot. You caught me just before I was about to install Hyperdrive N3 RLS7.1. I'd like to ask you what you think of this ROM?
And as for tweaked, I have come across two possible versions of a "tweaked" ROM. Tweaked ROM [Material L Theme] and TweakedN3 v3.x. Are these actually the same ROM? I'm looking around but still am not sure on this.
Thanks for your reply.
Olin
Well I "think" I have it figured out and I am in fact going to go with the Tweaked ROM, basic install procedure. Thanks so much for your advice ytj87 - I would have installed that other ROM if I had not seen your post. I may do that down the road anyway but I intend to give Tweaked a thorough test before I do. It looks great and based on forum info it seems less buggy than most of the other roms I researched.
Olin
Will probably come down to the experience you want. Tweaked is more stock with an emphasis on stability. I haven't used Hyperdrive, but when you see a ROM like that which integrates something other than the Note 3 TW UI, you're more likely to see glitches. It's the same NF9 base, though, and it has been around a while, and it looks interesting, so at some point give it a shot if curious. I personally prefer the Note 3 original UI to the S5's, so I probably won't try it.
TweakedN3 3.95. The LP themed one I haven't used.
