I've already tried to wipe and factory reset everything. it didn't work. I'm currently running non rooted stock 5.0.1 and I'm just trying to find the md5 file to flash on odin. if someone could help me out that would be awesome. I'm getting really annoyed with this phone tonight.
There isn't one. You need to flash NE3 and then update to 5.0.1.

Thanks so much! that worked. phone is up and running again! Whew! :victory:
Do I need to put a specific 5.0.1 upgrade on here? or are any of them fine? Sorry for the dumb questions. I don't do this often.

Any of them are fine, your best bet would be to install the most recent one since that one presumably has the most bug fixes.

Ok so I over wrote the boot partition and my at&t note 3 is pissed. Its a long story as to why. I tried to re-flash the De La Vega file using oden, but when it reboots goes to a triangle screen saying that i have system software not authorized.
Not worried about warrenty. Just need to get phone going again. I realize how dumb it was to try and replace the boot, but I didn't realize it was going to straight lock me out.
How can I kick this into a mode where I can fix it.
Thanks in advance!

If you grabbed the official file for odin it wouldn't be saying that, or at least on prior devices that was the case. I can't imagine it to be any different for your phone.

Unfortunately I can't seem to find an Official Stock odin file for the N900a.
I don't need the phone to be 100 functional. What would happen if I flash the stock tmo rom on an n900a?
Thanks

I wouldn't flash the tmobile firmware. So you already tried flashing the one click odin file from the root de la vega?

if i have tiome b4 i sleep, ill upload the odin zip to restore to stock. you might ask design_gears to give you the link to download it or ms Kraz.
DO NOT flash a tmo rom. u will permanently brick your device,

Thanks for the help guys. I guess somewhere in the beginning of all this I had found the custom one click. Its running now. I saw it reflash the stock boot.img, so we shall see. I had tried the de la vega 2x. Every time it rebooted it tossed the AT&T message up and I was screwed. COuldn't even adb to the phone.
I'm hoping i can find a way to get a custom service to load on this stupid phone. Any ideas? That's actually what I was trying to do with the boot.img originally was load a custom init.rc
UPDATE: No longer locked out. The one click fixed. THANKS!!! Stupid me...
Thanks again.

no big deal though. Hopefully someone will unlock the bootloader so I can flash my custom kernel and all will be well. In time I guess.

So my phone keeps screaming at me to install a update, stock Rom only rooted, downloaded it to find out I cant install it with out the stock recovery and it would probably unroot my phone....
So I'm kinda confused as to what I need to download to update.
This all steams from how my old lady is picking up 4G at our house on her s4 and I'm stuck on 3g and I think it's because I haven't updated in a long time.

if you're s-off you can use the modified firmware in OMJ's thread to update your firmware.
Sooo, just flashing a new firmware is enough? Dont mire things get updated in a ota, could I get a link?

how is that going to help me my phones already rooted. I don't need help rooting it I figured that part out myself but I'm trying to figure out how you update a rooted phone, ota's are like 300 megabytes a firmware 19 I'm trying to understand what makes up the difference and if all I need to do is update the firmware so your link on how to root a m7 no help but thanks I guess...

I'm with you... I tried doing my own research, found this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2795856) and asked if flashing the "Modified Firmware w/ Radio" file would be the correct one to give me all of the needed OTA updates. I was told yes (though as you mention, the size difference doesn't make sense), so I flashed it in Fastboot.
...and I still have the system update notification on my phone which I can't get rid of. If you figure it out, please post here. Thanks.
I hope to have the process all figured out once 5.0 is released so that I can upgrade without wiping, as folks who are not rooted and take the OTA will be able to do.

Have a look at this regarding Android L/5.0
Hi, I was told to post my question here. I bought my Note 3 with AT&T but switched to T-mobile with sim unlock. The device runs fine. My device is currently running N900A....NC2 (4.4.2). It is rooted, however not much has been done after rooting. I'm able to download OTA update. However, the installation fails after 25%. It is unclear if it is because I'm no longer with AT&T or is it because my device is rooted. I tried calling T-mobile but didn't get much help from them. What are my options at this point? I'm pretty new at this so any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Your update fails because you were rooted. You'll need to Odin back to stock NC2 before you can take the OTA. Everything you need to accomplish what you're trying to do is located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2703006.
The NC2 files are near the bottom of the first post.

Hello! Long story short I was on 5.0 rooted and like a COMPLETE idiot I tried installing TWRP. Basically it broke my phone, so I went to 4.4.2 and tried going up from there. For whatever reason it won't let me do the OTA, so I was looking for the 4.4.4 Stock firmware for my G900A but no matter where I search, here or on Google, I can't seem to find it :/ Could anyone lend a hand? Thanks!

Use the downgrade firmware in this thread ( step 5 in the notes section of the OP ) after using that firmware you will be able to OTA. Just be careful not to ota to 5.0 or you won't be able to root. Flash the firmware in AP slot in odin 3.09

Thank you! Now something else I was wondering... Isn't 5.0 like 400 something MB? The OTA that I was trying to get *but failed at getting before you sent me the link to the one in that post* was only around 160MB. Is that the 4.4.4 update?

I'm not sure. Personally I'd get back to 4.4.2, root then go back to 5.0 using the thread i posted to you then flash
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3095987
Support is low for the 4.4.x since everyone has moved onto 5.0. Plus no one is working on them roms anymore. The TMS5 is a good rom and the dev is still actively working on improving and adding more to it. Plus in the OP of his thread he has instructions for using safestrap on 5.0.
Sorry i can't help out on the 4.4.4 i was never on it. I never take OTA's.

EDIT: Never mind! Figured it out! I think I may have it now lol.

Lol ok.
Okay guys, I just got a brand new tmobile note 4. Tried rooting it but something went wrong...
Didnt make a backup either so hopefully you guys can help me.
I installed twrp successfully...but after installing supersu...kept getting the boot loop.
Decided to give up rooting and go back to stock.
Downloaded the latest 5.0.1 stock firmware for my phone but after running it through odin, it keeps failing.
I don't know what to do.
I didn't hard brick it since i can still boot into download mode and twrp recovery. But i already wiped system so i don't have any OS on it now.
Should i just chance it and try and send it back to tmobile for a replacement?
Any feedback would be much appreciated!
Well, atleast you could find the firmware. -- I cant find it anywhere for my n910t3.

I just realized that i've been downloading the wrong firmware for my phone. i have the same model number as you. i just did a search and found a firmware for our phone model but it takes 3 hours to download. I will update in the morning when it's done downloading.
Since i can't post outside links yet, just google "SM-N910T3" and look for the firmware in the results, that's how i found it.
I have downloaded a firmware that I want to use it for my galaxy s5 with unknown baseband, and I will try it I hope it will work
