I managed to download the lollipop stock firmware for the Note 3 using Kies. Its file name comes in as N900VVRUEOB6_N900VVZWEOB6_N900VVRUEOB6_HOME.tar.md5.
I am uploading to Google Drive right now.
edit: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_Ae6ytnQ-FHYkdBSlRoYURxQnc/view?usp=sharing
I ODIN the above firmware from 4.4.4, the result was PASS but after reboot the phone is stuck on initial Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Logo...
If anyone has succeeded in the installation then please share your experience...
Edit: Finally Succeeded...Just we need to remove the battery, boot the phone in Recovery mode and Factory reset the device....
I have downloaded the firmware zip file from sammobile which is around 1.53 GB....and uploaded in my Google Drive...
Here it is : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5QUDadhHYPVcTF5dE43QjA1UU0/view?usp=sharing

Not yet, I think may be the first boot will take long time...so i was waiting since 20 min...I will try to Factory reset now...
Edit: Factory reset did the work...
I am not rooted. When I did both updates required for reaching lollipop, both times it was at the Verizon logo for a long time. Each time I thought something had gone wrong, but I just hung in there. So normally that part of it is slow.
Firmware is also now on SamMobile.

The firmware from Sammobile is of size 1.5 GB because it is zipped...
Please upload the firmware (zipfile) after downloading, in your google drive and share the link with us....so that we dont have to download 2.4 GB file from the OP...
Uploading zip to my drive now
Here zipped
So... will it be possible for someone to root the update file? or does it check md5 before installing on the phone? Just not sure if i should upgrade from 4.4.2 or wait for a rooted 5 if its possible?
Yeah that happened to me once too. Good thing you figured it out. ?

Anyone know how to pull the radio from this and make a flashable zip?
Surely. First boot after flashing takes longer but it shouldn't be forever..

I moved my Note 3 from Verizon to Tmobile. Not rooted. Can I just put the OTA on SD card and it will install on restart? or do I have to go in to download mode?
THANKS!!!

I'm wondering this as well, since my phone no longer has an active Verizon SIM in it. Was hoping the update would show up in Kies so I could update that way, but it's still showing 4.3 as the latest. I haven't seen anyone post a dump yet that could be flashed with Odin. I assume this will be the "normal" way to do the upgrade aside from OTA?
Me too.....
We need to wait for sammobile.com to upload the firemware (i605VRUFND7). You can register to this website and download the firmware.
You can use ODIN to flash it.
But sammobile.com not yet uploaded the firmware....waiting

The update using Samsung Kies worked great and only took a few minutes. Didn't have to bother with downloads from slow, unofficial sites - just plug in the phone, click update, and wait 5 minutes.

If you are searching for a fully stock ROM it's available in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/development/moto-z-official-firmware-downloads-t3449837
But I don't suppose you have a filefactory account.
If you want I can upload the file to mega for you as I already endured downloading the file as free user.
It's currently 0:42 here at my place so you would have to wait at least 18 hours till I uploaded it.

No.....because you will also need to odin stock pk1 onto your at&t phone in download mode before anything will change. After that, whatever features stock pk1 firmware has along with your phone contract is what you will have on your phone. So in the end, probably.
MMB29M. G930AUCS4APK1 is the Latest version we have gotten from AT&T OTA dated Nov. 1 and released Nov. 18, 2016

I have to say. I dont think i ever would have returned my phone to stock without your help sir.

So thank you!

Tested, works fine. Rom runs smoothly, rooted and debloated.
Battery life increased for a couple of offscreen hours.
Great update, the Phone seems to run even better then before, really impressed so far. Multi-Screen and Always-On are missing, tho, installing them manually won't work either. Guess it wasn't feasible with the A3s hardware limitations.
Yeah i think this german Nougat build is much better than marshmallow,very stable,better battery,fluid animations,very nice.. Tell me your opinions?

Extracted the zip, you get a tar.gz file ready to be flashed. I flashed with Odin, had no problems.
Hello and thanks for the ROM. I've ecountered a few issues:
1) MicroSD doesn't load when i turn off the phone, i have to remove it e put it back in again in order to be recognized
2) Apps like Colornote don't stay in memory when the phone is turned off and on again, so many notes saved on the status bar go missing and I have to open the app everytime
3) I can't delete bloatwares like Samsung apps and GApps. I use Link2SD to delete system app but doesn't work with this rom: when I restart the phone the apps are still there.
Hope someone helps me with this.

Did you try finding your firmware using firmware finder.?

Yes, now I'm starting to understand all these version numbers. My end goal is to install LineageOS, but I need MM first.
So now, I've switched back to Huawei eRecovery instead of TWRP, and tried two different firmwares (before B360 because apparently it prevents installing LineageOS), that were "validated with my IMEI". Settings>Update>Local>Reboot, installation starts I'm about to cry tears of joy and then around 15%, installation fails with no further details. I can then shutdown and reboot to my good ol' lollipop. Not sure what to do next...

I still have the same lollipop firmware my device was bought with. I don't think I have US variant. I brought it from (Amazon France)[https://www.amazon.fr/Honor-5X-Smar...d=1508409802&sr=8-2&keywords=huawei+honor+5x] and I am in France. The product title says it is unlocked but I had to do it myself.
I'll try your link as soon as I receive my SD card, because apparently it is required for this method. I still have this file from an older download, but was scared because a PDF file included in it mentioned it should be used with B140 and did not mention B160, but now that I've flashed a stock recovery meant for B140, this doesn't scare me anymore.
Thank you very much for taking the time to help a noob FOSS-enthusiast!
