im running 4.4.2 leaked firmware right now the baseband N900AUCUCMLG for note 3 at&t. my question is how can i go back to stock 4.3 .. i tried downloading md5 tar file of 4.3 but when i tried to flash it via odin when i click start it just stopped (0 successful/1 failed) please help me
First...
Questions go in QA.
Second look at the picture. It states that it contains bootloaders.
If you don't know what they are, you probably shouldn't flash it.
Basically, you screwed yourself. The bootloaders are locked. You cannot downgrade.
Ladies and gentlemen...
This is why it is important to read till your eyes bleed.Mod Edit...Comments removed

I am helping. You just don't want to hear the answer. There is no going back with the locked bootloaders.

Uh actually you can go back to mj5 from the kit kat leak because I have done it a couple of times if what you say is true then the method that drake has come up with to get to safestrap from his kit kat roms would not work

You can not go back to mi9 but you can go back to a hybrid mj5
Read the mj5 restore thread that's the best we can do right now.

Grey Diggy is right, he was not being an ass. he asked a question, and he can not go back to what the OP stated 4.3MI9 ( aint happenin )
but you can def go back to MJ5 as the previous posts stated. so do that and you will off kitkat which seems to be what you going for anyway.

you are right i did not see the ml9 referance
GrayDiggy, as a matter of "fact" you can downgrade back to MJ5. Before giving advice know what you're talking about and try and be respectful.

How Bout you read the title and thread before you start telling people they are wrong and what to do.
OP asked about reverting to MI9. Not MJ5.also,did I even once say it was not possible to downgrade to MJ5? No.
This is why I tell people to read so they don't make themselves look stupid.

Whoa!
Time for everyone to relax a little. This site has rules about being respectful. How hard is it to offer your suggestions without having to call out other members? Life is too short for that.
Consider this your only warning in here, going to keep thread open for now. But if we drift ....infractions and closure.
Be nice or get out.
Sorry Naddict...

I flashed the knoxraid 5.1 rom coming from jellybean by drakey exactly like it said and now the phone will not boot past the samsung custom screen and for some reason i might not have flashed the rom (maybe?). I know i did it correctly in odin but thinking back i might have added the file for the rom in safestrap but didnt flash it .i can go into recovery and download mode and see custom screen but thats it . Please help a dumbass out . Ive searched for 4 hrs and stiil got nothing.

Did you flash the MLG AP, and BL?
You will also need to flash the CP for the modem.

Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I followed the directions exactly made sure the odin window looked like the picture said it should look. I honestly think that i added the rom file in safe strap and was reading and working at the same time and i forgot to flash the actual rom i kept hitting back to get to download and didnt execute the flash but im not sure cause everthing else i know i did it corectly cause i checked it 3 times . Guess thats why it said go slow and take your time.

While that is possible, there are also other reasons for failure.
We're you trying to flash in stock slot or a different slot. Always flash in stock slot with KitKat ROMs

Basically.. If you forgot to flash the ROM... One of 2 things would happen, exactly what you are saying or it would boot the stock ROM.

There is a restore to MJ5 tutorial in the general section.
If you want to restore your backup, you will need to use Odin to flash the MJ5 AP and BL and then use SS to restore. After that you should be good to go and try again.

Worked for me to go to a different rom, also. Coming from Knoxraid 5.1 with SS. I took out my sd card, did a factory reset on stock rom slot. Flashed Alliance rom, it finished but failed due to E: unable to mount /systemorig'. Put my sd card back in, booted to download mode in SS, Flashed the MJ5 AP and BL in odin. Left auto reboot on and it passed and rebooted straight into my Alliance rom. Lost all my personal data but if your looking at bricked phone you don't care.
I've got a G Flex coming to me in a few days. I'm hoping it's still on JB. But if it isn't, is there a way to get it back to JB from KK?
I've looked around here and I cannot seem to find my answer.
I appreciate any help.
Thank you.

Why are you keeping away from kk you can retain root
Sent from my LG-D950 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Wouldn't rooting in 4.2.2 stops the upgrading to 4.4? The phone will say something to do about rooting and you can't update the phone
Sent from my LG-D958 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Root stayed even after the update. But in the update process, it will download the Rom but not push it to the phone until you "make" it. So even if on WiFi, you have it download kk, it will not automatically start flashing it to the phone. But I was rooted, then updated and did not loose any root abilities

I've tried Wanam,Gravity and Xblast before and they works fine but with a very limited functionality. Some options just don't work on Note 3 Twz.
