So I was just trying to use the towelroot, but I'm guessing because I had the fnk1 build it wouldnt let me, I found a guide to downgrade to build nc5 with Odin 3.0.9. I successfully did that but now when the phone turns on, I get a constant string of errors that wont allow me to do anything else.
Unfortunately the process android.process.acore has stopped.
Unfortunately the process android.process.media has stopped.
Unofrtunately Gmail has stopped.
Anyway to get rid of this? maybe something I can flash over it?

Eclipse is a stock based ROM so everything works and more. My wife hates stock but loves eclipse.
Does it get rid of all the bloat?

Yes, it is fully debloated. And all stock features still work. If you have never gave it a try I would highly recommend trying it!

Credits: Our thanks to Samsung-Updates.com for posting MI3/MI5.
Until I have time to clean this up I figured I would post this now and we'll update it later.
It's more important to make sure people have this while testing new things.
Samsung-Updates.com has posted MI3 here:

As usual we're putting it up on Rwilco's repository. I am not doing anything with them though for a few reasons.
1) At the moment neither I or rwilco12 have a device to test with.
2) Given the issues with Knox I am leary in doing anything without addressing #1.
Link to Stock ROMs:
http://www.rwilco12.com/downloads.php?dir=Files/Devices/Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N900P)/Stock ROMs/
Download, flash in Odin/Heimdall. This current version will wipe your data.
TESTED AND WORKING - Great Work bud!
Any other DL links? Its not downloading anything.. On either link. Thanks
EDIT: Might be on my end I think it is working now. I already did something and messed it up. Very easy fix but I cant believe the n00b mistake I did lol. Oh well
Edit 2: Last one lol but link did work and was able to restore. Thanks!

Mine was stuck on the yellow sprint screen. I went in the stock recovery and wiped data, and after that it loaded up perfect. So if you are stuck on the sprint screen, try that and it might help you.

There are no working wallet workarounds for the factory stock MK2 ROM that I am aware of.
However, if you'll let us know what workaround you tried to use we may be able to help recover.

This is the Google Wallet NFC fix ( tap to pay functionality ) method that I tried unsuccessfully. I used kies to reinstall mk2. Rooted, installed safestrap, installed hyperdrive RLS 12. Setup HD12 as active in ss and setup the ROM letting the phone sit 10+ minutes before reboot after configuration as described in the original post. Next up, booted into recovery, installed the NFC zip, fixed permissions and rebooted the phone. Instant NFC force close on startup... Over and over. factory reset and reinstall of the ROM didn't fix the problem, I had to recreate slot1 in ss.
The above steps happened after the same NFC force close issue occurred after trying this same fix on my original rooted, safestrapped mk2 operating system. Hence the reason Kies was used to factory restore the device in the first place. So basically I tried twice and was unsuccessful both times.
The zip file from the original post was removed and the thread was locked before I could post this information. I had to reset my phone twice but wasn't upset because the author never stated that the hack would specifically work on the mk2 bootloader with safestrap.
I hope that helps. If anyone can point me in the right direction to get Google Wallet tap to pay working on the vzw s4 mk2 bootloader , please do let me know by responding to this post.

Every time I tried to point out to the author of that "fix" that it didn't work he got upset. However, it's been reported by some that they got it to work on Hyperdrive. I wasn't ever able to get it to work, and it always killed wifi. I'd suggest not using it on an i545.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bm6r5nnah3hjz0u/dbSGS4_GE43_R141Wallet.zip
Here is the fix your looking for.
Before you flash this:
Remove any remnants of google wallet from your phone. That includes uninstalling the apk and removing its data from /data/data.
1. Flash in safestrap recovery
2. Fix permissions.
3. Reboot
4. Enjoy tap and pay

What's up guys, I'm running into an unusual issue here and could really use some guidance. I tried searching around, and the only solution I KNOW will work is to start from scratch, using odin to go back to stock, re-rooting, and then slowly trying to work my way back to where I was before the FUBAR.
So, I was recently using LiquidSmooth 2.9 and went to make the leap to 3.0. Flashed everything, got confirmation that it went through ok, and then I just got stuck at the Samsung Galaxy s4 screen, nothing happens after that. So, I went to restore from the backup that I took earlier and I got a failure to restore.
Not to worry, I figured, I'll just reinstall from the zips for 2.9 that I still had on my SD card. Well, I do that and everything seems to work fine with the flash, but now I'm STILL stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S4 boot screen and STILL, nothing happens after that.
Any suggestions on what to do here? Flash a new kernel? Am I stuck going the long route and having to Odin everything back to stock and then re-root, etc?.

Id download the latest liquid file again just in case that file was corrupt somehow.
That's usually been the problem lately from what I've been seeing. You really shouldn't have to Odin.
Also the kernel shouldn't matter but I always flash kts latest kernel with liquid but others don't and have no issues.
Grab that file again
Do a couple wipes in recovery
Flash away

SS = abreviation for safestrap, thought that was pretty obvious
barebone ROM? Im not familar with that one being SS compatible. The safestrap disabled msg on display means the stock rom slot is active and the phone should boot to stock. When you have rom loaded into a rom slot 1 or 2 or whatever, you must "activate" that slot for it to boot. I would suggest deleting the rom slot you made and start over.

So, let's start from the basics - you're not telling us what versions of anything that you're using.
First, what build is your phone? i.e. the stock slot.
What version of Safestrap are you trying to use?
What version of Hyperdrive are you trying to flash?
When the phone hangs like that during boot, something critical has crashed that's preventing the boot.
You're booting Android 4.3 according to the above, so you should be flashing using SS 3.71 on build MJ7 or MK2 and Hyperdrive RLS14.
If all that is correct: the build is MJ7 or MK2, the Safestrap is 3.71, and you're trying Hyperdrive RLS14, then the likely cause is that you have a bad download. Check the md5sum after downloading to ensure that it's OK. Download it to your PC, not directly to the phone, then check the MD5 before transferring it to your sdcard and flashing it.

OK, If your stock slot is damaged, you probably need to re-flash and start over.
Download the MK2 "No-Wipe" rom image from this thread and flash it using ODIN 3.09 - that'll get you back to stock, Then try the Safestrap stuff again. Seems like you have the right versions of things, so if you follow the directions, it should boot OK.
Be sure to check the MD5 of anything you download. There's free software available that does that.

Well is your stock slot still working? If u just messed up a ROM slot than you can erase them and start over.
But if it was your stock slot then using Odin probably is the only thing that will help you.

Well you probably just need the USB drivers for your phone that's all. I just went through that myself with my new laptop. I ended up just googling it and finding the right ones.
It will work for you, once your back to stock just use Saferoot again, then install SafeStrap again... Then be certain whatever ROM u flash is SafeStrap compatible. I'd say use ROM slots for the time being until your more comfortable with things.... Don't take that the wrong way... Just saying is all. Messing with the stock slot can lead you back to where you're at right now that's all.

I tried updating my rom and my phone will not boot. I cannot get past the samsung splash screen showing me the unlock icon. I have tried installing a different recovery, wiping everything, restoring from a backup from my SD card... no luck. I have been reading on here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30386309 and it kind of sounds like my issue. sometimes when I try wiping and installing a rom, the phone reboots when it has to write data, eg. installing gapps. no matter the gapps package im installing, kit kat or jellybean, the phone will reboot in the middle of the install. it is almost like the R/W is now corrupt. Anyone have any idea?
We need more info than that etc build you are on, and what build you were trying to update to.

same problem !!PLEASE HELP!!
I have the same problem. I upgraded my S4 to kikat a week ago using this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2726868 worked fine. then i lost my phone at the park after about a couple hours trying to call it and find it a kid answered the phone. he wouldn't help me get it back and said he was gonna keep it and wipe it. i filed a police report and a few days later they got my phon back. but now its stuck in a boot loop on the unlock custom splash screen. the kid that took had my phone was only 8 years old. is there anything i can do to get my phone working again?

Your best bet is to just Odin the NC5 stock firmware back on there then. You can try the no wipe first.

Well there are some partial downgrade methods on here which require a few files and Odin again. I haven't done it myself and I've seen some have no issues at all with it and some have had nothing but issues.

ugh. im having the same issue. Installed NC5 today from a clean install on my MK7 phone that was running NC2.
It installed and booted up fine. I installed some apps and rebooted. Now stuck on the Samsung logo with blinking blue led light. Can't get into recovery.
