SM-N900W8 4.4.2 Kit Kat Available

The SN-N900W8 Version of the Note 3 is finally seeing its Official Kit Kt Update.
The first carriers seeing the update are in Canada. Hope The rest of America will see it soon enough.
Please check Software updates in your phone or go to the usual sites to download and install via ODIN.
Please also report if you install this version in phones from other regions/providers, like South America.
Regards

You can download it from:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-N900W8
Just be sure to use your correct model and Odin version according to the instructions in each site.
Everything is under your own risk as usual.
I updated via ODIN without doing Resets or CleanUps, and it upgraded to 4.4.2 pretty nice, while keeping all my apps and without losing data.

do you lose root when you update from 4.3 to 4.4?

Yes you do.
But there are already tools to get it again from the 4.4.2 baseline.

Can you point me in the right direction.
I did an updated to 4.4.2 (KK) with Kies successfully, but I can't get root back.
Tried CF-Autoroot as before, but my recovery always says "recovery is not seandroid enforce" and just reboots to normal phone without supersu.
Any help by anybody would be appreciated.

I wonder if the bootloader kept the same advantages there were pretty unique to the W8 model with the initial leak?

Well. It seems like there are no new catchs or caveats, and everything is still the same as cool as before.

Friend: I think you better go and read the info in the Android Development Threads. The information there is very complete and fine.
Please be aware that the current root methods over 4.4.2 are for other models not the W8.
I think somebody needs to jump in here and test ways to do root. To be Honest, I don't do root with my Note 3, as I still have to find a reason to do it. For me everything is working nice without Root.

I was thinking about flashing official 4.4.2 for Telus/Koodo, but I haven't really seen anything that says it's rootable at the moment, so I'm hesitant to upgrade to stock 4.4.2. I'm really just looking for the latest Telus/Koodo modem from 4.4.2 (currently running MJ4 baseband), I'm pretty happy with CM11. Can I just extract the modem.bin from the 4.4.2 file from Sammobile and flash it with Odin?

I rooted my Bells Note 3, and it tripped knoxes.. Can I upgrade with Kies? or will it brick it?
I started the process with Kies and said rooted devices may fail if phone is rooted..
Anyone know for sure?
Thanks

Probably can't un-trip the knox but so what... I don't expect to get warranty so I'll do the best way, Odin and correct firmware. Then you'll have to re-root again. But you're knox tripped, meh..

If you have the time can you do a step by step guide on how you did the kit kat update, together with root and twrp, and if possible tell us where you got the right files from? Its kind of confusing what we can install and not install on our phones since there are so many different models for the note 3 and no one wants to trip knox if they dont have to.

Here is a quick and dirty guide of how I flashed and rooted 4.4.2 on my Bell Note 3.
1 download carrier firmware from sammobile
2 unzip to single tar file (N900W8VLUCNB7_N900W8OYACNB7_N900W8VLUCNB7_HOME.tar)
3 put phone in download mode (make sure you see the red/white text at the top i.e. if knox is tripped etc.)
4 open odin 3.09 as admin
5 click AP and select the tar file and then click start
6 wait
7 once phone is booted
8 download CF Root -> CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.zip
9 I used odin supplied in the CF zip (Odin 3.07)
10 Select AP then -> CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar.md5
11 Click Start
12 Wait for phone to reboot
13 Enjoy Root
At this point I also installed TWRP 2.7.0.0

Knox Bootloader?
Do these include knox? My tablet does not have it. I am on nd5

Didnt know there was an ND5. There wasnt even an ND5 when I downloaded the kernel source code from samsung. And nope, There like 2 knox files in the entire firmwares which is just left behind crap I believe. Absolutely does not give you a knox bootloader and crap tho. Do make sure your tablet is a T230NU model and not just a T230 model.

Thanks a lot for this. So if I'm rooted and want to install system updates I would first backup data to sd card via titanium ,(or to pc?) , then factory restore via settings, Odin with this firmware, install updates, then vroot + terminal supersu, then restore backups.... correct? I'm still trying to figure out what bloatware is safe to remove...a guide on how to clean a out of the box tab 4 7.0 would be greatly appricated....

Will this Root my T230NU?
Hi, I am new to the Android market and I was wondering if this "stock" image will root my Samsung Galaxy 4 T230NU.
I am a formerly iDevice owner and I am quite familiar with Jailbreaking.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hello Ed,
I'm kind of new as well however I can tell you that this process will not root it. In my case, because I updated the software I had to use the stock Rom in order to downgrade and then root it. ShinySide explains the.. Rooting procedure in another post

thanks!

I just used these links to download the firmware and they worked great. Mega took 1/3 as much time to pull from as Sammobile. Thank you Shinyside! You are awesome. If I wasn't a broke college kid I'd would def donate.

So I rooted my Tab 4 7" and then decided to switch to Nexus 7 and sell my Tab 4. Both great devices but the specs and updates draw me to try Nexus after the Tab. Anyway, I went to Sammobile to get the Stock rom and inadvertently ended up with the Nook version. OOOPS. Had to reflash but the second firmware I downloaded from Sammobile (at about 1 hour each, ugh) kept failing. Even after wiping the Cache and resetting I could not flash with Odin. Tried placing the image on the SD and installing in Recovery and still no luck. Then I turned to the ONLY source for self support of Android and found ShinySide with the stuff I needed. Downloaded with the Mega link which took 20+ min instead of an hour and it flashed straight away and my Tab 4 is back to being a Tab 4 instead of a Nook. Just wanted to give props to ShinySide for his efforts on behalf of the community and his patience to put up with noobs even when they do/say silly stuff!

Thank you so much!!
Ive been trying to download this file from all these crappy sites and they keep timing out thank you so much.

Thanks for the great info.

thank you
HI so i tried installing twrp recovery for my SM-t230NU And it got stuck in bootloop after trying to load custom recovery. Not a single Tar file md5 file worked until i got this rom and USED odin to install it. Odin just kept crashing on me till I got here and used the md5 file provided. It pushed the files while in download mode and rebooted and even still had all my apps and email going.
Again thank you so much and please reply if you have the same device and need help. I thought i bricked my Christmas present.

Lollipop has finally arrived for SM-N9005, here's how you can achieve awesomeness!

Since no-body has started a thread for Lollipop on our beloved SM-N9005's, I thought I'd start one for us
Here's what you need in order to achieve awesomeness:
Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005 ONLY!)
The firmware file located here: https://mega.co.nz/#!qk12UYYB!4fg39KkeatkTtcShS4rUljWpU1rGnMC9XL3C17z8Crk
Or here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/43185/N9005XXUGBOA5_N9005VFGGBOA2_VOD.zip/ (UK Vodafone) others can be found at http://www.sammobile.com
Odin - located here:http://www.mediafire.com/download/vwuqru9m1jp9wbw/Odin3_v3.09.zip/
The Samsung drivers installed, if not they can be found here:http://androidxda.com/download-samsung-usb-drivers
1. First you need to download the firmware package, once done, extract
2. Then you need to install the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 drivers (if you have not already done so, if you have, proceed to step 3)
3. Extract Odin.
4. Open Odin using right click, run as administrator.
5. Their is a .PIT located in the firmware folder you extracted in step 1. This is for the 32GB variant ONLY! Using this on the 16GB variant will most likely result in a brick! If you have the 16GB variant, skip to step 6. If you have the 32GB variant, flashing with the .PIT is optional. If you wish to use it, click pit in Odin and locate the extracted file from step 1, and select the .PIT.
6. Click Bootloader and select the file that starts with BL.
7. Click PDA AND select the file that starts with AP.
8. Click CSC and select the file that starts with CSC.
9. Click Modem and select the file you haven't yet selected.
10. Then you need to power off your device.
11. Once done, we need download mode, to enter this you need to hold Vol Down + Home + Power at the same time. Once done you will be prompted with a screen with a load of writing about custom roms etc, press Vol Up to continue.
If you're using the .PIT (remember 32GB variant ONLY!!) On the left hand side, make sure auto reboot is checked, repartition is checked, F. Reset Time is checked and Phone Bootloader Update is checked.
Once all these details are entered correctly and you're happy to proceed, press start.
Let it do its business, it usually takes around 8-9 mins to complete. Once done you're running pure awesomeness on your device.
Please Note: I can't stress enough that the .PIT file is for the 32GB variant ONLY!!!!! if you're running the 16GB variant, DO NOT USE THE .PIT FILE!!!!!!!!
Also, I take no responsibility for bricked or damaged devices, by participating in the above, you take all responsibility for yourself and for your device. You have been warned my friends. Happy flashing!

It's not as in depth as my thread

does the room working perfectly ?
will it trip knox ?

Works like a treat mate. It won't trip knox because it's official Samsung

The Batterylife is, in my opinion, quiet amazing.
Got nearly 4 hours of screen time, with highest brightness, nearly 2 hours phone callin, more then one hour of skype, more then one hour 9gag and wlan/mobile data permanantly on.

Did anybody try the towelroot method by flashing the ND3 Kernel and reflashing back this kernel ?

what about video camera and playback of vids??Mine was freezing on startup and then rebooting

Can I just add the zipped package to AP and flash that with the PIT file?

S6 - SM-G920i Firmware

Hey everyone,
I have a g920idvu1aod1 Samsung that I bought off of eBay, pretty sure it came from Latin America. Anyways, is there an OTA update or a firmware I can flash to get to 5.1.1? Everyone else seems to have this update but when I go into settings, there's nothing.
Any ideas?

India currently has the latest 5.1.1 firmware for the 920i. Download from: http://samsung-updates.com/details/48408/Galaxy_S6_SM-G920I/SM-G920I/INU/G920IDVU2COF8.html and flash with Odin.

The phone isn't from India though, like I said in the OP. It's from Latin America.. will it still work if I flash..? Because I believe that it's a different baseband version. Mine ends in AOD1.. the one you gave me ends in COF8.

Doesn't matter, still works.

So long as it is for a 920i you're sweet to go. (My phone is from Australia, works fine on Indian firmware.)
edit: This link here should be faster to download the Samsung-updates, it's the same one I used on my phone.: http://d-h.st/YOpx
Use the "Download Now" button, not the normal "Download" Button for a direct link rather then a dodgy looking .exe file

Spot on mate. Put phone in Download mode, then flash with ap section of Odin.
Backup anything you want to keep first as this will erase absolutely everything on your phone and update your bootloader, baseband, modem etc. to the latest versions and start up like a brand new phone again.

Basically just wanted the new baseband, bootloader and modem then flashed back to a modified bogg for the system itself.

To be honest I can't imagine running stock when we have combo from my signature available...
But you should be able to run it with stock.

Make sure you use TWRP 2.8.7.0. The new ones don't support aroma installer.
For custom roms I do recommend combo from my signature.

OK, flush the ones from my bundle and then go for the custom ROM, you should be good.

The bootscreen logo has nothing to do with boot-loader AFAIK. The N9005DXUGBOK3 is quite old (2015) and it is from Singapore ROM not EU.

what do u mean for Euro ?

Europe networks and phone models .

I was having the same problem like you.But last month i found the cure.Not the bootloader is the problem.The modem.I updated to last bootloader and modem and when i try gps i saw a lot of sattelits but no lock.Also i remember last year i have an older bootloader and an older modem ( PI1 ).I tryied 3 different new modems and bootloader but the same.Then i remain with new bootloader and try that modem.And all was good.A lot of sattelits and lock in seconds.So modem is the big problem. ?
