For Kernel Builders, Samsung has released the source code here: http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=N900T
If you have trouble getting the bootloader and/or Modem to stick, install "Triangle Away" by @Chainfire and follow the directions to reset your counter (even if it says zero), then boot into download mode, and re-flash them with Odin and they should stick.
To verify, you can download "Phone Info - Samsung" and make sure that all 4 items say NF9 (Bootloader, Baseband, PDA and CSC).

how do I update the modem without odin the full file? do I just odin the modem.bin file?
Thanks. Are there any major updates in this other than Wifi calling improvements?
Any idea why after I flash the CSC file, with Phone INFO app, it shows as N900TTMBDNF9 and not N900TUVUDNF9 like the firmware?

you can just odin flash the one with both of those files combine. its a lot easier than doing both of them separately
@toastido Instead of having people use Triangle away, just tell them they need to boot into Download mode after having the phone turned completely off. If you boot into download mode using an app or using CM's reboot option, the modem will not stick. If you boot into download mode using the button combination the modem will stick.
Thanks for breaking out the full tar...I love to update the modem but nothing else.

Try taking batter completely out, and then using button combination to get into download mode. It has worked flawlessly for MANY others including myself.

Because the CSC contains the "CSC Code" which is TMB.

The reason is that I've not had luck with any other way, and those who have done it with TA (and followed TA's directions) have reported success. I had NE6 not want to update for me until I did TA method. Powered down, battery pull, power up into ODIN mode, flashed in CP, still wouldn't take. I installed and ran TA, following the directions, and when it was finished, the modem stuck like a champ. Obviously YMMV, but I had to reset the flash counter first.

I flashed the Non-Hlos Modem via Odin V3.07. Put the file in the PDA section but the baseband version still shows as NF1.
Any suggestions?
This has been covered so many times take a couple mins and read the other threads.
Here some help this is how i do it flash the stock kernel that work with your firmware then run triangle away let it do its thing then when it ask to reboot once its finished select download mode then flash the modem

I flashed just the System img on my T-Mobile N900T just to see whats changed. Wifi, NFC, Bluetooth working without needing any patches. VoLTE, Wifi Calling, Download Booster options not there and not working but that's expected since it's not a T-Mobile firmware. The biggest change i noticed so far is that Samsung set the Sound mode back to how it was on Kitkat. You just have Sound, Silent and Mute. It doesn't show any of that Priority or Interruptions stuff anymore which is good since i had a issue with my alarm working with the stock T-Mobile firmware. So i had it on Mute last night and my alarm worked this morning just like it used to on Kitkat. So i'll keep it for now

Only if you have an N900W8 - NOT an N900T as I see in your signature. This baseband and bootloader is made for Canadian Note 3 phones only. Sorry, I don't have the N900T baseband/bootloader on hand.

It's because XDA doesn't have a Canadian variant subforum for us. T-Mobile's /system works on the Canadian variant and vice-versa, but not the baseband or bootloader. That makes this a good subforum for N900W8 because their custom ROMs work on our phone. OP should probably change title to include [N900W8 ONLY].
Hi jcadduono,
I have the N900W8VLU2DOC4_N900W8OYADOC4_RWC.zip (around 1.4 GB file), when extracted: 2 files;
N900W8VLU2DOC4_N900W8OYADOC4_N900W8VLU2DOC4_HOME.tar.md5 & SS_DL.dll
I'm on stock N900W8 4.4.2 NB7, rooted, twrp.
Wasn't sure if using mobile odin and the zip file, would install ROM, MODEM & BL.
Sorry for the noob question, but in addition to the baseband file, will I need any other tar.md5 file to get my rom to DOC4, without the LP (DOC4) Bootloader?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Ok, the file you have there ending in _HOME.tar.md5 contains the full firmware upgrade including bootloader (mbn files), baseband (modem), ROM (system, kernel, and recovery), and CSC (written to cache for recovery to apply to system and give you proper carrier apps and access point names for data/phone operation). If you want everything in one go, including the bootloader upgrade, you may want to backup everything from your phone's internal storage first. I'm not sure you would want to use mobile Odin for an entire firmware upgrade operation, and you'd especially want to have an actual desktop Odin available in case anything goes wrong to recover. (it's also not recommended by Chainfire to use on LP yet)
Odin 3.09 for Windows
New: Cold boot your phone into Odin by removing your battery and USB cable, then waiting 5 seconds, reinsert your battery and do VolDown + Home + Power to boot directly into Odin from OFF. Once Odin is started, you can insert your USB cable. Some people have had issues where bootloader and/or modem wouldn't upgrade without a cold boot.
This *should* be sufficient to upgrade fully to DOC4:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
then press Start. It would likely upgrade the bootloader even without the "Phone Bootloader Update" box checked
Once it's finished, it will reboot your phone and start installing the CSC. I would recommend going back into recovery after that completes by using VolUp+Home+Power buttons, then using wipe data/factory reset. I don't think it's entirely necessary, but it should save you from any issues caused by previous settings on KK firmware.
Once you boot up, go through the wizard until you reach your home screen. Open up the dialer and call *#1234# - this will open up a version info dialog, telling you which version your ROM (AP), baseband (CP), and carrier data (CSC) are. Make sure they're all ending in DOC4! If they aren't, get back to me. If you want to check your bootloader version as well, get Phone INFO Samsung from Google Play and go to the firmware tab in it. I don't know how to check it from dialer. I am fairly sure the DOC4 bootloader can be downgraded (it's a Canadian tradition) although it WILL trip Knox on downgrade (do any carriers here actually care?) so I wouldn't be afraid to use it.
IF you want to upgrade and be sure that the bootloader is not included in the upgrade, you will need the tools to create Odin flashable firmware files.
DISCLAIMER: I have no clue if LP will run on KK bootloader, you would have to confirm!
img2tar.7z
Extract that and you will find the folder img2tar, inside of it are a bunch of folders that you can fill up with files extracted from the _HOME.tar.md5 (using 7-zip). I've placed empty files in ap, bl, csc, and cp folders to tell you which file goes where. All you have to do after placing them is run the .bat files to generate the tar.md5's.
If you wish to forgo the bootloader, don't use make-bl.bat.
When using Odin with these generated tar.md5's, this is how you will fill it out before pressing Start:
I still recommend doing a factory reset via STOCK recovery with both methods.
Once you've confirmed everything seems ok, you can install TWRP easily from Odin using only the AP box with this TWRP recovery flashable tar.
Rooting can easily be done by putting recovery flashable zip latest SuperSU on your internal storage or sdcard, then flashing that from TWRP.
Issues I've run into while firmware upgrading:
Modem doesn't upgrade - reflash CP file from last step only. If that doesn't work, reflash both CP and BL (modem might require new bootloader).
Modem & bootloader don't upgrade - COLD BOOT: remove all power from phone (unplug, remove battery) then reinsert battery and do volDown+Home+Power to get into Odin, then insert USB cable.
Infinite length loading screen, never boots - data partition is blank or incompatible with ROM, boot into STOCK recovery and wipe data/factory reset to fix. (if you used NAND Erase All in Odin this will happen)
T-mobile boot logo - CSC flash failed (you have no carrier data), reinstall stock recovery and carrier data by reflashing AP and CSC through Odin.
Phone doesn't show up in Odin COMs - No Samsung drivers installed - download them here.
EMERGENCY RE-PARTITION FILE - DO NOT USE THIS unless you are somehow bricked but still able to access Odin through VolDown+Home+Power. Use in Odin with _HOME.tar.md5 in AP slot, Re-Partition, PIT file in slot.
Wow... Thanks for the awesome detailed instructions! :good:
Will let you know how everything works out.
Thanks again.
Great guide thank you!
I've tried everything, doing reset in stock recovery, flashing samsmobile file, BL separately, CP separately and both together, nothing works, the bootloader and modem don't stick. Any suggestions?

They are not carrier specific, they are for N900W8 VL model phone (not T-Mobile or Mexican).
These are sold by Bell, Rogers, MTA, Tbaytel, Telus, etc.
Chances are if you got your Note 3 in Canada and not from T-Mobile then these are for you.
Same here - BL and CP just not sticking when flashed independently of the whole firmware. Thoughts?

SCRATCH THAT - GOT IT!
Using the info from the bottom of this OP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/odin-flashable-lollipop-bootloader-t3058101
I followed iketil's directions to flash only the bootloader and modem:
1. Completely turn of your phone, usb cable must me disconnected.
2. After the phone is turned off, remove the battery for 5 seconds
3. Put the battery back in and boot directly in to download mode (vol down + home + power) then press vol up 1 time to enter download mode.
4. Open ODIN on your PC and put the BL and CP files in their respective sections (Odin v3.09)
5. Now connect your phone to the pc via USB
6. Untick auto-reboot in ODIN before you flash.
7. When the flash is finished in ODIN force a new direct reboot in to download mode (vol down + home + power), you'll also have to restart ODIN.
8. Then tick back the auto-reboot tab, flash only the CP file one more time and let the phone autoreboot.
This worked. My modem and bootloader stick and were updated to OC4. LTE signal strength seems to be better too!

Hey
I'm having troubles with dropped calls and disconnects from Rogers network. currently I installed temeseks LP 5.1.1 custom ROM. This was a clean install and I also upgraded my baseband to Rogers doc4. Everything works except the call quality. Could it be because my bootloader is NA7? Should I upgrade to doc4 bootloader as well?
Still 4.4.4 though, apparently it's still just too much effort to update to 5.0.1.
Probably just the stagefright patch...
Beginning August 31, the Samsung Galaxy S 4 will have a optional software update to Android version 4.4.4/ Baseband M919UVUFOH3 via OTA or Samsung Kies. This update provides

It would replace your installed ROM; if you're just looking for the new modem, there's a thread that has it posted in it (sorry, I'm on mobile, or I'd dig it up for you).
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Free mobile app
So, I downloaded the new firmware from SamMobile, since I was using TWRP and the OTA wouldn't have worked.
Link is here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/54333/M919UVUFOH3_M919TMBFOH3_TMB/
I had to restart my download several times to get it to finally download completely. Luckily, Firefox would restart where it failed each time, so didn't have to restart from beginning each time. But, it took quite a while - several hours.
BTW, I did a full NAND backup with TWRP before I started this.
Used ODIN 3.09
Flashed once, but the bootloader and modem didn't take, so I did the double flash, and it worked.
To double flash:
Unchecked AutoReboot in ODIN
Flash the firmware once
Pull battery
Boot holding down Vol-Down button to get back to Download mode
Flash again
The problem with the single flash was my WiFi wouldn't turn on, and when I checked out the versions of the ROM, bootloader, modem using Samsung PhoneInfo from the Play Store, I saw the dreaded mis-matched versions.
Some of my partitions were still NH7. Evidently Samsung keeps a backup of some of the partitions and restores them when the phone is rebooted. Double flashing flashes overwrites this backup.
I rooted with CF-AutoRoot again, installed SuperSU, and was back to where I was.
UPDATE:
Only issue so far is that I had to clear the cache on the Play Store. Was getting a services error.
Rob
Thanks for the update. My own download from Sammobile completed successfully (miracle!) And I am considering doing a phone wipe/double flash/rebuild. May choose stock ROM and freeze the junk. I'm on MDL bootloader at the moment and a fairly old LTE modem.
Before I do anything i have to figure out how to back up my texts (in Slimkat messenger app) such that I can restore them properly into the new environment.

Some of my partitions were still NH7. Evidently Samsung keeps a backup of some of the partitions and restores them when the phone is rebooted. Double flashing flashes overwrites this backup.
I rooted with CF-AutoRoot again, installed SuperSU, and was back to where I was.
UPDATE:
Only issue so far is that I had to clear the cache on the Play Store. Was getting a services error.

If you flash this firmware from SamMobile. It will overwrite your modem to the newest. It will un-root your phone. And, yes you can go directly to this version from your NB4 version.
So, after you flash this firmware you will have the newest modem. And, you will have to root your phone again.

Firmware = Modem + bootloader + ROM

frustrated foh3
This morning OTA pushed the new update to my phone and I accepted thinking there was a lollipop update finally. I had juke woken up and didn't bother to check first.
Anyway, I'm now on FOH3 and am just trying to install custom recovery on my otherwise un-molested phone. I've tried the heimdall option as well as the cf-auto root with odin 3.09 (even attempted the double flash) either I'm doing something wrong with Odin or missing a step because when I hit start I end with 0 succeeded/0 failed and it stays in download mode. When I attempt to reboot to recovery mode, I get the blue text stating booting recovery and then black screen which eventually just goes back to stock.
Is there some other method I need to try when rooting/installing trwp for FOH3?
[edit: I'm an idiot. assumed I already had debugging turned on. I did not. *facepalm*]
-thanks in advance
I haven't flashed a phone since my galaxy s blaze 4g.

because I open the zip file in my pc and have two files:

I read need double flash... with " Unchecked AutoReboot" in Odin... but please can you tellme what more choices I need to check or unchecked in Odin to start flash this firmware ?
and if I need to uninstall kies from my laptop and install another Samsung drivers... or with the drivers came in Samsung Kies its ok to start flash this firmware?

Yes, you unzip the file to your computer. The .tar.md5 file is the one that you browse to and select in Odin.
Uncheck everything in Odin. Then, flash this firmware twice, with out letting your phone boot into the system. After the first flash is finished. Pull the battery. Put the battery back in and hold the Volume Down button while you power on the phone. This will put you back in Download mode. Then, flash the same firmware again.
After that second flash, you can boot your phone into the system normally.

If you really wanted to, you could leave those two checked on the second flash.
However, leaving them unchecked on both flashes will work, and are the easiest instructions to follow.

Read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1622790. If that doesnt work try DIFFERENT usb cables (official works best), verisions of odin and different usb ports. Make sure usb debugging checked and power down and pull battery, then put battery back and (while its off) hold just vol down then plug it in to the computer while odins open. If this stuff doesnt work it could be motherboard (its probably not though, dont worry). Good Luck, keep trying.

So, I downloaded the new firmware from SamMobile, since I was using TWRP and the OTA wouldn't have worked.
Link is here:
I had to restart my download several times to get it to finally download completely. Luckily, Firefox would restart where it failed each time, so didn't have to restart from beginning each time. But, it took quite a while - several hours.
BTW, I did a full NAND backup with TWRP before I started this.
Used ODIN 3.09
Flashed once, but the bootloader and modem didn't take, so I did the double flash, and it worked.
To double flash:
Unchecked AutoReboot in ODIN
Flash the firmware once
Pull battery
Boot holding down Vol-Down button to get back to Download mode
Flash again
The problem with the single flash was my WiFi wouldn't turn on, and when I checked out the versions of the ROM, bootloader, modem using Samsung PhoneInfo from the Play Store, I saw the dreaded mis-matched versions.

^^^Modem & Non-Hlos in a zip file. Extract and flash what you need.^^^
Non-Hlos <<<(need to be on [OH3] MATCHING Bootloader!)
FOR MDL BOOTLOADER FLASH ONLY THE MODEM.BIN (NOT NON-HLOS)
Everythings working, sound, calling, LTE, Wifi etc.
Steps I took in case anyone needs it: have latest samsung drivers, open odin (I used 3.04). Untick auto reboot, POWER OFF PHONE dont use reboot menu because files wont always flash correctly. Hold power + vol down to boot to download, make sure it shows up in odin. Click PDA navigate to modem.bin (if its not showing up enter ** into file name field and hit enter....poof its there) now flash it and wait until you see success. Unplug phone, Close/Reopen ODIN, Hold power to shut down, boot to download and repeat modem flash to make sure it sticks.
Make sure you have a backup of rom and current/older modem in case you want to switch it back or what not. Not a dev, just wanted to help out and give back to the community.
Thanks @shiamatsu for this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544612 , no clue if sound would still be effected by non-hlos.bin on MDL
Thanks @dirkdigles for the heads up on non-hlos.bin.

While this allows one to update to the latest baseband, does it address the stagefright fix or is the entire firmware flash needed?

The entire firmware is needed. But it's a moot point if you're running a custom ROM; once you reflash your custom ROM, you're at risk if your devices dev hasn't patched the ROM.

It might be better or its just a placebo effect, mine seems more stable. Really need to try it in your area for yourself and see, too many different configs for this phone to be sure for everyone.
I was able to flash the modem.bin just fine. However, I'm on the NK2 bootloader, and I can't get the non-hlos.bin file to work. I've used Odin 3.04, 3.07 and 3.09, and I get a Pass message every time. According to the Phone info app, I'm still on The NK2 bootloader. I used the phone slot for the non-hlos.bin file. Has anyone else had this problem?

Its probably easier for EVERYONE not on MDL to just update with odin official firmware, then odin TWRP or whatever recovery and restore the backup you should've made. No need to re-root or what not. This post was mainly for MDL.

You can't flash non-hlos.bin on a bootloader that doesn't match. You gotta take the original TAR and do something like this guy did

What is the most recent bootloader? I upgraded to the knox one already and was using NB4 non-hlos and modem.
I tested out the FOH3 non-hlos and modem and so far it seems to be working with whatever bootloader I have.

You should be able to ODIN flash TWRP then you will need to flash a custom kernel to get root, and flash Superuser.
I have not tried it yet though, so I have not verified if it works or not.
I tried flash clean rom via odin, fully bootup, reboot to download, installed TWRP recovery, then flashed superuser.zip. Bootloop.
There was this other article on the net about the 910C saying they got 5.1.1 but you have to flash back your booloader to 5.0.1.

Ripped the BL/CP parts straight from the firmware.
Since I assume none of you want to exactly download a 1.84GB file for just a bootloader and modem upgrade (why would you go back to stock), here are the BL/CP parts!

[DO NOT USE UNLESS YOU NEED TO REPARTITION YOUR PARTITION TABLE, OR YOU'RE IN A BAD BRICK.]
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960684492
INSTALLING THESE FILES
1. Load phone in download mode. (Vol down+Home+Power)
2. Open ODIN3 on your computer. (Make sure the Samsung drivers are installed.)
3. Load the booloader file in BL.
3a. Load the modem file in CP.
4. Hit the start button, and let the files flash.
5. If there are no error messages in the log portion of ODIN3, then you have successfully flashed and upgraded to the 5.1.1 bootloader.
NOTE: At this time, you CANNOT downgrade from the 5.1.1 bootloader, so take caution.
