no it wont work. Dont do it or you might brick your phone.
Wait for a developer to create a pure aosp rom meant for your phone, then flash that.
Thank you
Thank you for the quick response. I am still waiting for a custom ROM for Sony Xperia SP however there isnt a single one available on the web. So I am thinking of downloading the Nexus 4 ROM and modifying it to work with this phone.

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

Not sure if it's because you're rooted but I'm on stock rom and on mj4. Battery still sucks.

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.

Hello to everyone, I'm new in rooting and flashing but I tried sometimes. Now I'm on stock lollipop 5.0 I tried unroot as I saw on you tube but I can't get ota updates anymore even after wipe data reset etc. My fingerprint scanner is not working and also the camera is blacked sometimes. I wanna ask if I can solve all this and also if there is a fast and smooth rom with no problems. I read something about the zombie rom which is like s6. I hate touchwiz and maybe the new one is better. Can anyone give some advise?

Download the stock Firmware here
Flash it with Odin
Everything will work just fine!!
If you want a custom ROM then you gotta tell us which carrier you use.
I had the stock firmware from Samsmobile and I flashed it. It was confusing to get it since I'm from Greece and I bought the phone from a site last year. I think its from Czech republic. Everything went fine so u tried blisspop again. I have it many hours and its very solid and stable. Maybe its the update I downloaded that is not the newer. The notification sound is low but not much. I don't know if I can solve this with viper or something. Also I wanna ask will OTA work fine or I should better flash it evrytime cause if the gaps. I write to much and sorry for that thanks a lot for your answer.
Android version 5.1.1
Bliss version 3.2

I have been a proud owner of my refurbished one plus one but until today I now want to throw my one in the trash. My problem i am having with my phone is actually a major issue that i just can't figure out and I was hoping someone could help me. The issue is that i can't open the side bar menu in any apps that use it such as google+ or the xda app. There is also an issue where in settings if i select wifi or any other section i can't go back using the back arrow at the top. The issue does get fixed by rebooting but issue happens again after an hour of phone being on. This is really strange and i have always had a good case on my phone and i haven't dropped it once btw if that matters. I hope someone can help me PS i am running Latest snapshot of CM12.1 Lollipop that is out right now.

i don't know what happened or what u did so if u know things about android n roms just follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541 and restore your opo to stock will solve all these issues
Do this only if you know what u r doing and also have some knowledge about flashing and it's risks so just carefully follow the guide u will be fine and hopefully the problems will be solved
could be bad flash, clean(wipe everything) and fastbootflash back to pure stock
avoid twrp 2.8.7.0 and 2.8.7.05

I'm on a locked bootloader using a stock prerooted rom,but have unrooted using super su,should I repair to go back to stock as I want to send my device to Sony for repair or will it be ok as I have unrooted the device,any feedback would be highly appreciated,thanks

Another thread? Yes it is fine to send away. If you are that worried, flash a ftf before you send it in. Same advice you've gotten elsewhere. I once sent in my Z1 with UB and ihackers rom and custom kernel and they still fixed it.
May have a buyer for spares or repairs on it so I'll buy a new one
