Advice on rooting 4.4.4 AT&T Note 3?

We'll currently I'm in the market to buy a phone I really want the note 3, plus I can afford it :/ wish I could afford note 4 but oh well, have more important stuff to buy, anyways if I bought a note 3 from AT&T would it come with 4.3 an I can root ? Or update to where I want like 4.4.2 an root? Or will the AT&T have to phone updated to latest 4.4.4? If it came with 4.4.4 could I root or would that matter on what kernal it's on?
I'm new to android world an wanting to learn been doin a lot research on note 3 but there not much info about 4.4.4 with a root for AT&T/ Verizon models, mostly every thing is 4.3 or 4.4.2 or other models (Such as T-mobile, Sprint, International models), but also what r the chances for a future root? Maybe 6month from now or a root with lollipop 5.0? Is it likely or not so much cause don't seem like no dev. Is working on 4.4.4 root for AT&T/ Verizon Model cause we know the bootloader is locked
With all that said would you still recommend Samsung Galaxy Note 3 or should I buy a different phone? Like iPhone 5S something within these two devices price range? :/
Anyways please message your thought or what do you think the best idea is?
all good
The Note 3 is so good anyway it ships I believe you will be very happy as is. I would root what ever you get and then put 5.0 on when it is out.

N920W8 Compatibility

Hello,
I just got a Note 5 (N920W8) and I'm considering rooting it but had a question. IIRC, the Canadian Note 4 model worked with most/all T-Mobile custom ROMs. Is this still the case with the Canadian Note 5 model? It was really confusing last year with the Note 4 and would like to just start off knowing everything off the bat.
Also, one last question. Answer is probably still no but why not: any root methods out there for this model that doesn't tip Knox?
Thanks!

is it possible to install am international note 5 room on an AT&T note 5?

hello everyone.
I got a gsm unlocked N-920A from AT&T and I'll be using it for other networks. I'm sure you all know how slow their rom is when it comes to updates. I plan on installing an international rom on it but I unfortunately lack the expertise to know if it will work.
google isn't much help here as it keeps showing other things.
if there's a way. what exactly would I need to do. and would it automatically update when the note 7 UX and nougat are released?
thank you for your time

Galaxy Note5 N920T - ROM compatibilities

Hello everyone. First off, some back history. I have a Note5 N920T that I bought 4 months ago give or take in hopes to sell it and buy a Note7 later. Before that, I owned a Note 3 N900A that I managed, thanks to this page and their geniuses, to flash a few ROMs. I know they could've been many more ROMS but due the locked bootloader I was very limited by it. So I decided that the phone after the N900A should be bootloader unlocked. I knew that one of the main carriers in USA that doesn't have the habit to lock the bootloaders was T-Mobile and they have the same band compatibilities than here in my country, which is Peru,South America. But I want to customize the phone, and a few days ago I tried installing TWRP but I got stuck with a bootloop, even though I did everything that was said on the forum. I've been surfing all over the web and there are many pages saying it is posible, then others saying otherwise. My point here is to get a "One page Answer" where everyone who is interested in flashing a ROM on the N920T can find the best way without the risk of bricking the handset. I want to flash a ROM that is based on the N920I or N920G ROM cause they have more compatible bands with my home carrier "CLARO", basically I'm interested in the bands 7 (700 Mhz) and 28 (2600 Mhz) which here are used for LTE Advanced, T-Mobile ROM won't use them and it only connects to the Band 2 (1900 Mhz). So, it would be great that people post here pages where you can find procedures which can help you to flash ROMs on the N920T other than the T-Mobile's. I think everything I'm saying is possible cause there are no difference between models in the hardware matter, it is not that I'm trying to put a Qualcomm ROM on an Exynos phone as all Note5 are Exynos and hardware specs are the same among all models. I want to thank in advance for your kind help and sorry if I broke any rules from this page. Hopefully my intentions aren't misunderstood.
Ps.- Sorry for the long post also.

Can all note 5 variants share the same custom rom?

I've been looking into note 5 threads now that I got on coming from a note 3 and every thing seems confusing. From what I've seen, people with snapdragon variants can install rom's from the exyous variants for example, a n920g rom on an n920w8.
Is this actually true ?
