Note 3 - Is It Possible to Manually Install Marshmallow - General Topics

I previously rooted my Note 3 (I do not remember what technique I used). I also disabled OTA updates using NoBloat Free. I have since removed root using SuperSU but the normal method for checking for updates does not work. I also tried to clear the Google Services Framework as well as the "*#*#" trick.
Does anyone know what I need to do in order to get the system update functionality working again? If not, is there a way to to a manual OS update? I'm currently running 4.4.2 and I would like to upgrade to the latest version of Marshmellow. Here are some other specs - Baseband N900PVPUCNAB, Kernel version 3.4.0-533717. Any suggestions?

As an update, I just performed a factory reset....still nothing. Nothing happens when I click on the Update option. The same goes for "Update PRL" and "Update Profile."

There is no stock MM for the note 3?...AFAIK Note 3 ended with LP. There are a couple CM based roms on MM.

Thanks but I have no idea what you wrote.

There is no Marshmallow for the note 3. Samsung never put it out for us; they left us of at lollipop. However if you re root you can install Marshmallow from a third party. Such as Cynagenmod.
So long story short if you want OTA updates on the note 3 you are stuck of at LP. If you want MM you must root and flash custom ROM.

Find and flash a stock ROM... When the roll out starts just "un-root" using SuperSu's built in "un-root" option.

You will need to flash stock ROM, stock recovery and unroot your device in order to update to lollipop safely

Rooted S7 running Nougat. How do I update when there is a new beta available?

Hi, my phone (G930L, Korean Exynos version), is rooted, and currently running a beta version of Nougat. I received a message both on my phone and also Samsung Switch program on my PC, that there was an update available. However, I'm unable to update both from the phone and Samsung Switch, due to being rooted.
Is there anyway I can update to the latest beta without having to flash factory stock firmware?
Thanks!
Sorry but i think you need samsung ofw for that.It won't work if you installed a rom based on touchwiz.

Xposed for Nougat?

Plan to pick up a shield tablet and I'd like to run PS4 remote play on it. So far as I understand now (with the latest PS4 firmware and app), this is only possible with a rooted android running xposed and a Sony framework.
Does anyone know if this is possible on the Shield running Nougat? Can xposed be flashed on Nougat?
I've searched and most of the threads I find are long before the nougat update.
xposed doesnt work on nougat yet mte there working on it but its alot more complicated than other firmwares
OkThanks. I was worried that was the case. Edit: just realized this is true for more than shield, xposed is still in progress for all of nougat. Could be a while.
So when the tablet arrives I assume it will be on MM. Perhaps I can prevent the update to N and root it out of the box. Now I'll have to read on preventing the update I guess.
If you root MM, is there an update path to stock nougat later?

once you root you will have a unlocked bootloader and twrp installed so you can go for a custom rom or stay stock, but you can block updates in developer menu or just simply ignore them. your tablet might come with LP installed aswell mate

Downgrading to 6.0.1 Marshmallow breaks camera: "Camera Failed"

Hi guys! I have a galaxy s7 G930W8 (Canadian version). I've been trying to install Kali Nethunter for a couple weeks now. The only real requirement i need is Touchwiz 6.0.1. So first I tried using odin to flash the stock marshmallow firmware. Replacing the CP file usually broke my Bell service so i leave that empty and only flash the AP. But the Camera doesn't work. Next I tried Hydrarom 1.4, and again, everything working except the camera.
Right now I'm running Lineage Os, running nougat. Camera works. Same thing for stock Nougat firmware. Camera works. I guess what I'm looking for is a rom that is still being updated because hydrarom and stock marshmallow firmwares are from 2016. I heard about "Jesse's Note 7 rom for s7", but all the downloads seem to be broken. I even tried looking for the old lineage 13 but i'm unable to find that too.
Do you guys have any ideas? Rom suggestions? I enjoy the fully debloated roms without google or samsung. Thanks!

Updating from MM with root+xposed to N with root+xposed without data loss

Hey everyone.
I've stayed on Marshmallow since I got this phone, but now that Oreo has started rolling out on various devices, and Xposed is available for Nougat (I can't live without MinMinGuard anymore), I figured it's time for an upgrade to (stock) Nougat. I'm currently on EMUI 4.1, Android 6.0, version FRD-L09C432B131. Can I update to B403 without losing my data and access to root and Xposed? B403 is the highest version approved for installation for my device that I found through the Firmware Finder for Huawei app.
Googling on this issue hasn't left me much wiser; Can I just flash my stock recovery and boot partitions to enable the upgrade process, download and update through the firmware finder app, reflash newest twrp and then reflash supersu and xposed from twrp once on 7.0, all without losing my apps and data? I've used this phone as my daily driver for nearly two years, and I would like to avoid having to set it up from scratch as much as possible, as that's a pain-in-the-ass process that'll take me ages.
Anyone have any experience doing this? Any input is appreciated!
