First of all apologies if this has been asked or spoken about before.
I want to go back to my previous firmware MJ3, after the update I feel like my Note 3 is gone it literally feels like a different phone.
I have friends with the same phone irl and they say the same thing.
And also alot of people here seems to feel the same in various threads.
The battery is drained after 1 day and before it could take up to 3 days for the battery to totally die.
Is there any way at all to downgrade or flash an older version, I would really want the previous version, I so so regret updating it to the latest.
Any good suggestions or comments will be appreciated.
Cheers.
Try factory reset it might fix it

What are you ruining now? I'm using the latest and it is just the same if not better than out the box, but I've done wipes etc after any major change.
As suggested by the first reply, try a reset.

Ok well I guess it's worth a shot.
Did you experience issues with your battery performance after the update and therefor did a factory reset?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium HD app
Most probably the bootloader had been updated. .. which means you won't be able to flash older firmware now. I can get just about a day on mj7 which is good enough for me

I'm on stock ROM without root MJ7 and battery works great, easily lasts 2-3 days with medium usage

Will try it this Friday and report the results here after a few days.

Same here! Calibrated my Phone many times, no luck! Was already thinking of buying a new battery... I will do TOTAL wipe tomorrow, including internal sd then flash Stock MJ7 I hope it gets better.
If you update via OTA, Kies or PC Odin. Sorry you can't go back as new bootloader is not compatible with MJ3 firmware.
If you update all the while via Mobile Odin, then yes as Mobile Odin never update bootloader.
Just finished restoring all my apps and settings after a full system recovery. (couldn't wait hehe).
Will report back if I notice any significant difference in the battery life.
Btw can anyone give some advice on battery calibration?
Cheers.

Is this true? I never done ota on my note3. I rooted the phone just a week after i bought it. It was MJ1 if i'm not mistaken then flashed a costum rom using cwm. Does this mean i can flash an older firmware without worrying about soft bricking the phone?

If your phone already update to latest bootloader, it can't downgrade firmware to MJ1. I never try, but base on user report, you get bootloop only.
Mj7 is the best FW yet.
It has great kernel with battery tweaks.
Don't try to go back for older FW.
First you can't.
Second every upgrade has some fixes for more stability.
I have MJ 7. Its wonderful.
You need to di the following :
1- factory reset.
2- go to application manager and disable the unwanted Apps.
It will save your battery more coz you are not rooted so its the only way to stop and turn off some craps apps.
3- wifi:
Go to advanced options and untick the allow scanning option and put your wifi as never during sleep.
Check your battery life then.
It will be double..
I Promise.

root alone will not cause that.

The zip you flashed caused the problem. Did you make a nandroid before flashing it? You should have
your mod that you flashed is what caused the graphic bug.
you need to fastboot flash the system.img alone from the stock images. that should solve your problem
( you would need to reflash supersu however )
No-.- i try to unroot my phone and totally take it back to stock and root again, i know i'll lose all my data but that doesnt matters thank you for your quick answer too!

Can any1 suggest me a compatible kernel to solve this issue?
The stock one?
Sent from my Android L Nexus 5 via Tapatalk
Yep, use stock. It shouldn't be rebooting and of it is its either a problem with your setup or a problem the dev needs to know about so please do everyone a favour and try to help the dev troubleshoot it if it still occurs after a full wipe

Do you mean flash when using camera? If so yes.
But I hardly use 'Flash' as torch.
Yes.. Uninstall Viber Helped
Thanks for the suggestion! It helped. Camera hasn't crashed since 2 days.
Hey all, I am planning to go back to cm11s from cm12s. I am wondering which version of cm11s would be better to go back to. Which one does not have the touch screen problem. 44s or 05q. Thanks

Well, considering that the latest touchscreen fix was released in the latest Lollipop update, I'd say all previous versions have the potential for touchscreen problems. I have two of these devices though and neither have ever had touchscreen problems. You won't know until you test for yourself.
Go back to 5Q and flash boeffla kernel 2.10 along with it. It fixes the touchscreen issues. Its what I'm using for the past week and don't miss lollipop at all.
