Hi guys. I am new and I just rooted my at&t kitkat note 3 with the towelroot. Now I manage to put super user. And other stuff like lucky patcher and adfree. Also titanium backup.

My question is can I put the xposed to tweak my note 3? Or will I brick it? It says that there's a chance that I might brick it. Please enlighten me more with this matter. Thanks!!

My problem is that everything works fine except , for the fact that whenever I put or try to put a rom in. it won't install it. It goes the whole way through and then says failed, I tried backups. trying to restore them and then I tried to download new ROMs install them everything I do it keeps saying failed. I've tried to put them on the SD card, the internal card of the phone nothing I try works everything I try to install in one of the other four slots just comes up failed. and it always looks like it's going to go through. I doubt it has anything to do with me putting the xposed in.

when install fails go to advanced and save the log file. then read the log file, it will show where it failed. most likly updater-script, or wrong update-binary

My Note3 did something weird today. I was having issues with videos playing on FB so I did a restart and when it did the note 3 n900a starts with custom and has unlocked symbol on the Galaxy Note 3 screen. I never rooted or tried to install anything just normal use. Device status still says official. Anyone ever hear of this happening or have a fix besides going to best buy to re flash.

I'm having an issue with my storage. Gallery will not load pictures or take any new ones. No app seems to be able to write to the storage, for example, I can't make a new folder anywhere using any file explorer, titanium backup can't access the backup folder, tried multiple SMS backup apps and they can't access the storage either. Any suggestions? I'm on 4.4.2 stock with root. Also I tried in safe mode and still had issues and want to try factory reset but wasn't my SMS backed up first. Thanks

What does it mean to "set up" a rom?

Not sure what this term refers to. I've heard "wait ten minutes before setting up your rom".
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 440bro:
It means once you install the rom and your phone boots up for the first time, wait 10 minutes before doing anything. Just let it sit because system processes are happening. Don't even sign in to an account or setup Wi-Fi.

I have NB4 with Root. I want to go to KK. I guess I have a few options. I believe there is a rooted NC2 I can restore. Also there is towelroot.

AT&T Note 3 SD Card Problems???

I have a AT&T 32gb SM-N900A Note 3 running the newest Kit Kat 4.4.2...I bought (2) Sandisk Ultra 32gb micro sd cards at Xmas, and I just recently filled 1 up with music on my device... I went to swap them out, and when I installed the new card, it doesn't read or recognize the new card. In settings/General/Storage/SD Card, there's 4 lines as follows...

Total Space

29.71 GB

--------------------------------------------

Available Space

--------------------------------------------

Mount / UnMount SD Card

--------------------------------------------

Format SD Card

--------------------------------------------

So I UnMount the old one, and insert the new card. Go back to settings, and the FORMAT SD CARD is the only option that's highlighted & not "grayed out". I click on FORMAT and it goes for a few seconds and comes back with the message - "Blank SD Card" and that's all it does. It won't format it for use.

Additionally, I tried putting it in its adapter and formatting it on my CPU, and it won't read it at all that way either.

So my question is this....

Has anybody else had this happen to them?

Does this have anything to do with the last update? Or does this sound like I maybe got ahold of a defective Micro SD Card? The other one worked / works just fine, so I'm stumped. I'm going to go get a new one and try it again later on, but figured I'd ask around anyways. If it's from the last update, I'll save some time and gas money and try to fix this issue some other way hopefully.

Thanks for reading, and I'd appreciate any feedback or advice given.

Cheers!

Will the Note 3 accept 64 gb SD Cards?

Also, I've heard that some people were having trouble with cards over 32gb in size...so I'm also curious if it will accept a 64gb SD Card right out of the box, or if I have to root it first, or run some software etc, to get it to accept or recognize that size card?

make sure your busybox is installed and also when you hit restore in safestrap and it does not boot to recovery (because of reboot link is wrong) just reboot your phone and it will boot to recovery. safestrap set the reboot path, but reboot file in rom's or symlinked wrong for safestrap.

Turn on Mobile hotspot

Just unlocked my phone and bought a T-Mobile sim unlimited no throttling.

How do I turn on my mobile hotspot?

I am rooted on stock rom jb4.3

months ago I downloaded a hotspot widget, never added an att tethering plan, would click on the hotspot, and while the message popped up, "verifying network hotspot" I would press the home button and it would stay on and att never knew I was tethering.

Now I am connected to T-Mobile network, get 5g of free tethering, but the hotspot widget wont stay on, (I get a popup at the bottom saying "mobile data is not available or invalid sim".

Does anyone know a way around this, must be something im missing?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carl1961:
I assume you have unlocked your phone with AT&T so the T-moble sim will work.

also a Factory reset might be needed, because of the old AT&T sim info in your userdata partition

even then you may need to install a tmobile rom parts that control the hotspot.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XiphoneUzer:
Sure, after getting dicked around and lied to by the guy at unlockfusion for 4 days, I paid cellunlocker 30us and 3 hours later I had my unlock code. Put in a non att sim, up popped a box asking for the unlock code, put it in an my N3 is now permanently unlocked!

Jumped in my truck and drove to a T-Mobile store, gave them $50 deposit and $10.73 for the sim and now I have unlimited talk,text,and unthrottled data for $79 on a month to month. No credit check, no contract, no bs. Then toggled the mobile hotspot widget on/off til it stays on, T-Mobile does not know im tethering, nor do they care. The hell with being ripped off and throttled by att, and when they send me their last bill, I will dispute the last 2 months they throttled me, and I will dispute the early termination fee.

So Carl, do you or anyone here know of a tv service I can use to stream to my TV's?

(ps. T-Mobileeasily ported my att phone number over to their network, and att cant do anything to stop it.)

Help phone stuck in odin mode

Hi,

Recently my phone was "unexpectedly closing" every app. So I decided to restart my phone. When I did I received a message stating that I needed to take my phone to an ATT store (I'm no where near an AT&T store). and the phone would not start up. I tried going into recovery mode (volume up, home, and power on) and it said recovering booting, then fail. it would return to the take to att store. I called att and after talking to them my phone ended up not turning on. I took the battery out and left it out overnight and in the morning it started up again, still stuck in the take to att store. I found some roms on this site and tried using them to reinstall the software using odin. it kept failing immediately. So after talking to friends and finding out what a bootloader was, I didn't upload the bootloader in odin. It started working, I got my hopes up, then the system file didn't load all the way. Now it's stuck in Odin mode. Can anyone help me pleeeeeaaaaassseeeeee get my phone back working. Thank you sooooo much!

Ok, so I just opened the program, and the micro sd card is recognized as Drive "F" which is what my cpu has it listed as....but it's showing 32M?

Is that M as in "MB"?

Do I just need to format it with all the default settings, and if it takes, will my Note 3 then recognize it and then re-format it as a factory new card to the correct specs to be usable with the phone?

Also wondering about Allocation Unit Size...

It defaults to 512. Do I just leave that alone or do I need to change it to one of the many other choices? 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192, 16384, 32768 & 65536 respectively...

Also, under "Volume Label" do I need to label it with a name or does it even matter?

And Should the default "Quick Format" box be checked or unchecked?

Sorry for all the questions, I just don't want to render the thing useless by overlooking something.

I'm thinking I may have just gotten a factory defective card...I know that happens occasionally.

I bought this thing last November and threw away the original packaging so not sure if it's returnable at this point.
