You can always downgrade, at least back to KitKat. But not mj4 or older. Let me know I will help you get back.

you could try this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/general/rom-twrp-flash-ok2-n9000p-t3301897
And find a busybox installer that you flash from recovery.
Ended up using http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...ck-rom-odin-flashable-stock-firmware-t3306053

You can't flash AOSP roms on MK2/Safestrap, only TW (TouchWiz) based roms matching your current stock version (4.3).
thanks Oishi,
Can I flash back to an older stock rom that is not safestrap?

No, once you're on Stock MK2 you're locked to MK2 and have no other options than safestrap.

Here is a somewhat current list of compatible SS Roms
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2630040
Also check page 1 in the Android Development section; There are a few new ones that look tempting such as BajaRom for TW
Check out Eclipse 3.0 for an AOSP feel with TW compatibility.
New firmware is out NJ6. I can't get the OTA yet but it is available from KIES. Hopefully this will solve all of my signal issues.
I saw this on sammobile as well...most likely this will close the current root loophole...will wait patiently until an awesome developer can create a rooted 4.4.4 rom.
Yes, I did lose root but that is okay with me if it helps my signal. Haven't been able to test it in problem areas yet.

I actually have 4.4.4 rooted right now on my device but safestrap doesn't work properly now. It starts to load but then reboots into OS.
The first 4.4.4 rom I made would boot, but only had a black screen (kernel modules didn't match boot.img), then I tried the nj6 boot.img and got the warning about unauthorized kernel. So, I decided to try one more thing. I reflashed the pre-rooted 4.4.4 rom I made and then flashed all of the 4.4.4 firmware in Odin EXCEPT for the system partition. This allowed me to boot into my rooted nj6 4.4.4 rom.

Ain't gonna lie ... a lot of that went right over my head; but I'm excited about it anyway LOL :good:
How do I get it on my phones have 2 Note 3's in my house. It's not available on Kies or OTA in my Texas area. Not rooted phones.. or just wait some more?? Thanks
We're actually getting an update inline with other carriers? Anyone noticing any improvements? And do we have any idea when it'll push OTA?
Can someone post up just the radio?

The only thing I have noticed since updating last night is, data speeds have dropped. Not sure if its the radios, or if its the network being bottle necked, but Its taking me forever to download apps and files from my google drive account..

I was having the same issue when I tried to port Sprint 4.4.4 It would boot but I get black screen... Are you sure you flashed the 4.4.4 bootloader?
I would try to make a deodex 4.4.4 system flashable zip and flash and then right after it reboot to odin and flash the 4.4.4 kernel might work without flashing the bootloader and that way we have a working SS.
Kind of a newb to Note 3 firmware upgrades. I just downloaded the new NJ6 firmware from Sammobile. What's the best way to flash this?

If you're a newb I recommend to stay out of it if you want root and ss. We waited all this time we can wait more to have a stable rooted with ss working version

The only way to tell if it will work is to have someone flash just the system when its a flashable zip and then reboot to download and flash kernel via odin

I tried that and it didn't work. The NC4 bootloader won't let you use the NJ6 boot.img. It gives the unauthorized software message.
So I rooted with towelroot a couple months back, and currently running the latest Trents rom (4.4.2 I believe?). I was curious if anyone else has been able to install lollipop roms? I get a bootloop when installing through safestrap (latest version). I also just get a black screen when attempting to install 4.4.4 roms (I tried the latest DU 4.4.4). Anyone know why this may be happening, is there a fix? If you need more info I'm happy to provide... I'm just not sure what info would be useful.
Since you're on 4.4.2 with Safestrap and your bootloader is locked, you have to stick with Touchwiz ROM'S that are using the 4.4.2 stock kernel.
4.4.4 and Lollipop won't work since they're not using 4.4.2 stock kernel.

Great, I figured this was the answer, but I wanted confirmation. I appreciate it.
I've been messing with this all day, to no avail.
When I first got my M8, I unlocked it and installed Android Revolution HD 7.0. As part of the process, I created a backup of the stock ROM.
Everything worked fine until I decided today that I wanted to update to a custom ROM with Lollipop. I tried the newest version of Android Revolution HD and SkyDragon, several times each, and every time it got stuck on the boot screen. The only way I can fix it is restoring to the stock ROM.
As part of my troubleshooting process today, I went from S-ON to S-OFF and changed my CID. Still, nothing worked.
I also tried to update my recovery to a newer version of TWRP and broke it for a while. Mysteriously, when I tried to install CWM from the Play app, it ended up restoring my old version of TWRP.
I downloaded an older (pre-Lollipop) version of Android Revolution and tried to install that to get back to what I was used to, but that was unsuccessful as well.
Can someone please walk me through this process?

I used this thread that you linked previously: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-htc-one-m8/general/att-4-4-4-firmware-signed-encrypted-t3031703
The first ZIP was corrupted, even after a second download.
I don't recall the error on the stripped down one, but I can mess with it again later today.
Do you have any other links for the firmware?
So if I need to install 4.44 before changing ROMs, do I also need to install 5.0 separately?

Woo, it worked this time! I almost thought it was stuck again, but it managed to get through.
I'm on a custom ROM with 4.4.4 now. What do I need to do to get up to 5.0? Do I just flash a 5.0 ROM, or do you have a 5.0 firmware that I flash first?

Idk of hand if there is lollipop firmware for Att as I'm not a Att user just helping out. So either try an flash a device compatible ROM an see what happens or see if there is L firmware but it should work on 4.4.4 firmware. Should that is. What twrp version r you using? I would fastboot flash the latest one for your device.
I've successfully updated to SkyDragon v37 (5.0)!
I guess the missing piece of the puzzle was just that 4.4 upgrade, immediately followed by a ROM update prior to reboot.
Thanks so much.

I just got the MM update warning on my V10. Currently using Stock, debloated, rooted ROM. I'm thinking I want to upgrade to stock MM 6.0. I tried the install but it rebooted into the customs recovery. How can I get the MM upgrade to work from the custom ROM I am on?

First you'll need a new recovery TWRP 3.0.2
Second - You'll need to delete the ota update because once you "accidentally" install it you'll cry that you cant root and want to downgrade back to LP.
C. Go to the Dev section and Download the Rom that was built using the ota i just told you to delete. You'll be much happier with a Rom rather than a OTA update thats non-rootable.
Oh..theres also multiple threads regarding the ota.. Doing a simple search wouldve made things a lot easier.

Well the OP of the link I posted updated his 1st post. But since you're rooted you should just be able to follow the instructions.
1. Update your recovery to TWRP 3.0.2 (GROGG's build)
2. Download the Rom. Its a 2 part Download. So you'll need Part 1 and Part2 build 005
Dont flash anything until youre certain your recovery is 3.0.2 otherwise you might end up bricking or certain partitions might not be flashed.
If anything read the link OP a few times.
