Help ! System apps deleted

So my ohone is rooted and I deleted some system apps and i dont even remember which ones so now i want to update and my phone wont do with ota so need a solution to this. Will downgrading to GB solve the prob...???

You can install the same rom again using pc odin.

I did that but didn't seem to workout

Got cwm recovery?
Didnt make a backup?
If you havent got cwm, flash a cwm recovery image (with a new kernel... Dunno what system files u removed so...) using odin or heimdall.
Next: flash the rom of your likings after a full wipe.
After all that: BACKUP (using cwm).
Goodluck.

You dont need odin.find a safe kernel like philz or abyss then download the stock rom and follow the steps for flashing it(i dont know whether requires wipe or not!)

Ota update is not available for modified roms.i think he is talking about that
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

hes not using a custom rom. he just rooted a stock rom and deleted some apps. This will not cause an issue with OTA unless he deleted the software updater

Super su issue

I recently rooted my device and flashed the supersu zip provided in bigdaddy root thread .only problem is I can't update the app cuz when it updates the binary manually it fails or reboots my device .if I hit the flash option it goes to recovery but doesn't flash anything ..is there a way to make this update properly ?
Also version I flashed was 1.41

How do u do that because when the pop screen comes up with either manually thru app or twrp either one doesn't work for me. .can I just re flash the zip ? In on a stock with goodies rom if it matters

You could try to reflash the zip but i don't think it will make a difference have you looked thru flexs thread to see if others are having the same problem?

how bad would it be to flash international note 3 .tar file on an at&t n3?

what would happen if I flashed the international n3 .tar file via odin on my at&t n3 ? would it essentially turn my device into an international version ? sorry for the stupid question but I have to do something I hate not having cm any help/advice would be great thanks in advace

It would not turn it into an international version for sure. I'm about 90% sure it would brick. If you decide to do it anyway, I'm not knowledgeable on brick recovery, search the forums for that.

well in going to try it gotta do something I have 2 n3s and a moto x and cant run cyanogenmod on either so I guess it worth a try lol just thought since theyre the same device why wouldnt I be able to flash the international n3s tar file

They technically aren't the same device. The 9005 has different processor.

which n3s are the same as at&t ?

It's hard to find a page that compares all the note 3 variants. At least for me it is! This is a good comparison page.

The N900A has a locked bootloader and cannot be flashed period. There is currently no way to flash it. There is safestrap that lets you use an alternate ROM but the kernel will still be the same. There is no way to flash the N900A right now. If you do try to flash it, you will brick it for good.

I was going to flash via the tar file via odin not safe strap but we'll see how it goes tomorrow

How to restore to stock

I cant seem to find the mf3 full odin tar to load stock on the active exactly as it would if I updated it from pure stock mf1. I found this but this is mf1 and i didn't think those things are downgradable. the reason is is i have corrupted my system and things are going bad fast i just wanna start over fresh.

Are you on an att device? If so There is no mf3 for us. Its either 4.2.2 mf1 which locks you out of future OTAs and there is also 4.3 ML2 which is rootable and you will be able to receive 4.4 ota if it is ever made available to us. Choose wisely my friend.

yeah. is 4.2.2 mf1 rootable? can any of these install custom roms or safestrap 4.4 roms?

4.2.2,is probably your best bet for now. Safestrap is fully functional on mf1. Some users are unable to create ROM slots on 4.3 so maybe wait till safestrap is fixed then update to 4.3

At&t Lg Flex D950 Upgraded to Kitkat with Root retained.

I have at&t LG Flex, rooted and than updated to kitkat, surprised was when it updated to Kikat and root was retained, I used all applications that require supersu and work like charm.
Follow this, If you did not upgraded root it with ioroot and don't unroot it, take OTA update and you will keep the root.
If you upgraded, downgrade it via lgflashtool method, root with ioroot and update ota and you will keep the root..Good Luck

What did you do before hand? Cuz you're literally the only person so far i think. I tried everything and even went back to jelly bean 3 times trying to retain root with different programs. It would always error out on the update screen

Basically what I did was I rooted on JB and when KK update came, I removed root from superSu "unroot", I tried to upgrade to Kikkat and failed, so I did lgflashtool (you directed me by the way) and flashed it to JB, rooted again and kept the root and superSu..tried update from menu and went through and kept the root.

I was unable to try it out last night, ever since upgrading to kit Kat i can no longer choose which mode to connect (usb only, mtp, etc) so after flashing back the problem followed me which prevented me from running ioroot successfully. Luckily i had ordered a new flex yesterday from AT&T after their service center confirmed something was borked during the update, it'll be here Monday. Can't do anything till then.

i can confirm that root on kitkat works. i flashed back to jellybean then rooted then took the kitkat update, and still obtained root access.

So far it's only available for AT&T so that's nothing to "upload". Without recovery for these phones there's no way to create roms from kit Kat source

Downgrade to 4.2.2 then root phone using ioroot then take the 4.4.2 update this is for att g flex only you should retain root
