New AT&T Note 3 member here

Hello All,
I recently purchased Note 3 and it came with 4.3 jb, lucky I thought it should come preinstalled kk by now.
The device I rooted are kingo root program and successful rooted and ss. The rom I use firenote v9 rom.
I read lot of threads talking about kk. Was upgrading to kk worth it for some rom? The s5 rom has some wakelocks. Wasnt too sure if I go ahead and try it out.
Any recommendations?

The kk roms here are based off of the leak, not the official one just making that clear so try not to update yet to official if you want to keep root and flashing roms. As for recommendations i would suggest you try them all and see which one you like the best. Welcome here dude have fun.

Some of them have the official base. They are not complete as far as official goes, but most of everything under the hood is NC2.

[Q] Why does Locked Bootloader Matter?

So I have the AT&T S5 with a locked bootloader. I rooted it, put safestrap on it, and installed a custom ROM. Now I read that the Tmobile S5 has an unlocked bootloader, but given that I can root and install custom ROMs, why is the Tmobile variant any better? Also I read locked and encrypted used interchangeably regarding the bootloader, perhaps they are both locked but not encrypted?
Lastly, does an unlocked Tmobile S5 work seamlessly on the AT&T network, it appears the LTE bands overlap so I'm guessing so. Is there a good reason to sell the AT&T variant and get the Tmobile one?
Ungh, stupid AT&T.

You can only flash custom roms based on the stock kernel. With a locked bootloader you'll never be able to flash an aosp rom.

Nor will we be able to flash 4.4.4(or later) when it becomes available. We are stuck waiting for att to release an update, and then we might lose root.

Does this mean that the custom roms that are installed are still ultimately based on the original G900A one, or at least the kernel is the same?

Basically, yes.

The recent OTA will update the kernel and firmware, right? But does towelroot still work? Is it likely that the bootloader will be more difficult to break later if I do update?

Big Question for ROM \ SAFESTRAP \ FLASH

Hello
I have a problem with flashing new stock rom "G900FXXU1BNL9_G900FXEO1BNL1_XEO" by SafeStrap on my at&t s5. I downloaded rom from sammobile it is a zip file but when i try to install it by SafeStrap i have a error
"NO MD5 FILE FOUND".
After unpacked zip file with rom, there is one file "G900FXXU1BNL9_G900FXEO1BNL1_G900FXXU1BNL9_HOME.tar.md5".
Someone know how can i flash this stock rom? or How can i convert this file to flashable by SafeStrap zip rom?
If it is bad forum section please move it, no remove.
Many, many thanks

I have samsug g900a. I know that this rom is for International version but i read that it should work normally....my stock rom is: KOT49H.G900AUCU2AND3.
Maybe it is possible to unlock bootloader ? or maybe somebodey have this version of rom in flashable zip?

You're trying to flash a .tar file not a ROM zip

Not sure what you're trying to do here.
G900A device has locked bootloader are you trying to Odin a G900F Stock Rom to try and bypass locked bootloader? If thats your reasoning it won't do it.
Is your G900A rooted with Safestrap and if so just download a bone stock G900F Rom and flash in Safestrap.

Im no trying flash via odin because it is no possible...i have locked bootloader and i dont know how can i bypass it...i want flash via safestrap and i cant find flashable zip with g900f lolipop stock rom...

And is not possible to flash with safestrap do to missing bootloader. In order to have lolipop work on S5 you need to have correct bootloader. Since our bootloader is lock you can't do nothing now.

So, why i can flash other custom roms (for exmple "Omega" ) via safestrap and why i cant flash stock samsung lolipop rom?

You can flash G900A G 900T and G900F Roms if your G900A device is rooted with Safestrap installed. You will still have G900A stock kernel no matter what. Having a locked bootloader prevents you from flaahing custom kernels and that is the problem.
It is my understanding that to run the 5.0 Lollipop one must use a compatible custom kernel therefore you WON'T be able to yet since kernel is different.
When AT&T drops official 5.0 lollipop then you'll find developers will start building 5.0 Lollipop Roms.

But i have rooted device and i have installed safestrap...
Maybe, i dont understand but it is so strange for me...
So, maybe can i install stock rom with android 4.4.2 for g900f phones?

It's not about root or Safestrap its about the kernel. The official 5.0 for international G900F uses a different kernel than what is compatible with G900A and until AT&T drops official 5.0 lollipop you won't be able to flash official 5.0 Lollipop G900F Stock ROM.
Yes you can flash any TouchWiz G900F 4.4.2 with your rooted G900A with Safe strap.

Now i undestand thanks for your patience...
Where can i find stock flashable zip 4.4.2 from g900f?

In the Galaxy S5 thread

Downgrade from stock lollipop to custom TW eg. Firekat

So I upgraded to lollipop 5.0.1 until I realized how much I miss xposed. Is downgrading as easy as just installing the custom TW Kk rom over the stock lollipop rom? Or do I have to Odin stock KitKat TW before switching to custom TW?

Never mind. I decided not to take the shortcut. Odin'd stock ANK4 and then flashed Firekat. All fine and dandy now! Thanks for the views!

Which Odin did you use? I'm trying to downgrade back to ANK4 but I'm stuck on a bootloop. I'm on odin 3.09 trying to flash stock ank4.

It's all in the Odin file. Just make sure you've used Odin to put the same version of stock as the ROM you want to flash.

Is your ROM the same version of Android as was on it before you flashed? I'm just saying you have to Odin the same Android version (say 5.0.2) as the ROM you want to use. Then after you Odin the base you re-root, Odin TWRP then flash your ROM.

What did you have before that? Did you take the Tmo update to 5.1.1 or is that the room you flashed?

What's "the base" in "Odin the base"?
I was on Android 5.1.1, and I just TWRPd LineageOS 14.1, which implies that my Android version also went up a couple of points. But now my SIM card isn't detected, and I guess it's due to the baseband firmware needing an update, no? So, should I have "Odined the base"? If so, which "base", and could I have TWRPd it instead? Thanks!
