Hi, Hamada san,

Thanks for your message. I understood KNOX will be tripped after custom recovery is installed such as KNOX 0X1. But I thought Felica would work again once everything is reset even though Knox status tripped is remained....

Anyway, thank you very much for your reply!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Flash the stock rom again and perform a full wipe twice.

Then it should be working again.

cause curently im unable to use my sim on sc-01f note3, it blocked my network, and haven root and flash anything

Waiting for reply...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] chicharon:
I just unlocked 2 sc01f,

If you are on 4.4, you have to downgrade to 4.3 docomo using odin

Install China ROM 4.3 using Odin then run region lock away by chain fire. This will sim unlock sc01f note 3
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SB-Son:
There are several chines rom 4.3, which one can unlock ?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] smohta123:
dear, i have rooted phone successfully , b ut how sim unlock? please help

please

thanks

sourabh
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SB-Son:
Any rooted 4.3 rom should work (not only Chinese rom).
[Galaxy Note 3 General] rockyfoong:
Hmm, hi, i have a Note 3 SC-01f docomo on my hand

i rooted my phone succuessfully and i installed the RegionLock Away by ChainFire

it have patch my phone but when i insert sim card, i have no signal and say No service on my phone

Need serious help..

i installed few rom also have this type of problems..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] rahulunni:
Hi Michael,

I have finally decided to upgrade to 4.4 and get rooted using the steps you have mentioned. Just a small question, when flashing the Stock ROM, do I have to flash it with both the 'Bootloader' and 'PDA' option checked? As far as know, 4.4 cant work without the new bootloader.

Thanks!

Quick update for AU KDDI SCL22.

According to this:

http://sakuraba-android.blogspot.jp/2014/07/cwmrecovery-scl22kktarmd5.html

Kit Kat riot for this phone is possible. I can confirm this as fully working. No probs so far, only draw back is that out kills NFC. If only there's a way we can use the make_rooted_system method to make a pure rooted SCL22 KitKat file which then can be flashed and keeping NFC. Anyone with knowledge of this and can help, I'm willing to be a guinea pig.

Have fun with this root.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] RootNBoot:
Getting Edge reception in the USA

Hello All,

I just picked up this phone. It's unlocked, rooted, and is running CM11 4.4.4 on 4.3 bootloader. I am in the United States now and I'm using this phone on T-Mobile however I can only get edge (2g) reception. I am sure I probably have to flash a new tmobile modem in order to pick up better reception. If anyone has done this please help guide me. I have searched all over the place and no one is direct about this issue. Thank you in advance.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
If you want root and working nfc, you can, but you'll have to wipe your device.

You'll need Odin, a custom recovery and the latest firmware file and the supersu zip installer.

Flash the latest firmware and then the custom recovery. Flash super su with the recovery. Once root is confirmed, flash the stock recovery. Goto settings and erase phone. One the phone reboots goto settings and wipe a second time.

The root will remain and nfc will work, but you have to set up your phone again. Also the knox will have been tripped.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] RootNBoot:
SimmoF I have all that you mentioned. I'm just looking for a fix to get better 2g or edge reception. I know LTE is not possible yet and that there is a bounty bid for a developer to do this but I'm just looking to get 3g or 4g on US T-Mobile.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
You need to check what frequencies the sc01f is set to. They are non standard.

They might not be compatible with T Mobile.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
KitKat root with working NFC ready. Check the second post.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] beast08:
Will it work ith scl22 version or just for docomo only?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
I haven't got an au version to test.

But as long as the recovery works with the au phone, then there should be nothing stopping it from working.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
You can fix the nfc, how your did you get supersu installed?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] xdaoxs:
Hey SimmoF,

I tried the method you posted and success!!! Root and NFC all confirmed!!! I have been waiting for this since I got the phone last November!!!!!! Well done to everyone who contributed.

My steps were as you posted but the root recovery was more specific to the SCL22 (I thought I posted a link in the previous post but it seems I didn't, will do so in a few hours) - > http://sakuraba-android.blogspot.jp/2014/07/cwmrecovery-scl22kktarmd5.html

After root and losing NFC I tried using terminal and replacing with the original recovery I extracted with an unzip app on osx. It was applied and I could boot into recovery but no samsung official status. I tried a gazzilion times late into ungodly hours of the night. I then decided to take your next piece of advice and used windows7 to extract the file again, make a flashable tar.md5 and flashed with Odin. NFC was back along with root. Finally I used terminal to put back the cwm for scl22 KitKat. No probs so far, will report if any.

Thanks again for gathering info and posting solution.

PS finding the link for KITKAT root took me hours and days!!!!!!!!!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Thanks for your confirmation, I've put the scl22 recovery as an attachment in the second post.

Now that this method is confirmed, I'll make some single download packs for everyone.

Sorry, Windows only.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] chicharon:
Anyone have idea how to turn on the other lte bands on sc01f? Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
I did some research.

When rooted, open a terminal (ADB or Mobile Terminal Emulator)

First run su, then run this command

am broadcast -a android.provider.Telephony.SECRET_CODE -d android_secret_code://2263

You can play with the mobile bands all you like.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] chicharon:
Thanks will try it later

what is different stock and custom rom in SC-01F ?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] lvduccn:
[MENTION=4372075]SimmoF[/MENTION]

I can't to connect with other device by nfc. but nfc working. Any idea? Thank
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
I have never attempted to use nfc to connect to another device.

So I have no idea. I only use it for mobile payments.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
I've never used a custom rom on SC-01F.

Most are not designed for the Japanese model. I know there is a CyanogenMod available.

But I'm happy with the Samsung version.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] xdaoxs:
I've used it to send photos to my partners phone. Turn on NFC on both phones. Open a photo in browser in one touch phones and it should start. If both phones are and au you may need to download the kddi app to use this procedure. Not sure about Docomo.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Ok. I use SuperBeam. Select files, share go superbeam, it makes barcode with wifi hotspot and auto sends the files. Works over a wifi network also.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] drearycold:
is wiping necessary?

Hi, thanks for providing the rooting method!

However, in the second post, you didn't mention anything about wiping the device, is wiping still necessary?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Not at all.

SCL22 Note 3

Hi,

I am planning to buy NOTE 3 SCL22 unlocked, to be used outside japan. Does someone faces any issue in using unlocked SCL22 Note 2 outside japan say India?

I earlier bought LG G2 docomo locked but I am unable to upgrade it to kitkat as it is still not been offered by Docomo so effectively I still depend on Docomo even if it is unlocked.

Thanks a lot in advance for your feedback
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
The,Japanese model is meant for Japan. Things are set for Japanese standards such as nfc, tv, etc.

The system is loaded with bloatware for use with DoCoMo.

Do yourself a favor and buy the international model SM-9005
[Galaxy Note 3 General] beast08:
Im using scl22 here in manila and its working fine, i also was able to update my phone to kitkatvia ota, i just paid someone who unlocked my phone
[Galaxy Note 3 General] fly2shals:
Hi

How did you get rid of japanese bloatware and got nfc TV etc working

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 General] beast08:
Im not rooted yet so i havent removed the japanese, nfc will work if you are using official firmware, tv will not work outside japan, not sure if someone was able to use the tv outside japan
[Galaxy Note 3 General] fly2shals:
Thanks for your feedback. So everything is working as if it is factory SIM free version, you are getting Android updates and no issue so far with any application or services (call/data/wifi)?

Thanks again
[Galaxy Note 3 General] fly2shals:
Well just a thought, which one would be better AU or Docomo unlocked Note3 to be used outside Japan?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 General] chicharon:
I'm using docomo outside japan. Everything is perfect except that I can't get lte signal. Finding a way to solve this problem
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Try that command I posted a few posts back. You'll need root.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] pradiproy:
Hi Simmon - gr8 heads up. Any way we can get a cooked trimmed one for the docomo model. I am assuming it will be great if I can slim the unwanted crap from the current state and keep a custom ROM... awaiting your research update.

3cheers
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
This morning I tested Universal Root de la Vega for our firmware and I was unsuccessful.

So I'll try some more things and ask on the other threads.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
removed

remove what? where is the * Universal Root de la Vega for our firmware*?

:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
I removed the contents of post.

The Universal Root did not work.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Kumabjorn:
Any notion of why it wouldn't work? In what way will the Japanese version deviate from other versions?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
because japs version is diff cover and root.img , when u rooted, reboot, u will lost rooted....

and nfc is spc...,if we up recover,nfc will lose, error...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] im7up:
ican root

:) need my help?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:

[Galaxy Note 3 General] strebalicious:
This is probably a weird question, but does anyone know about the battery size and whether extended batteries for the N9005 version will work? For example, the SC-06D battery was shorter than one from an international Galaxy S3. I am really interested in the Zero Lemon batteries, and I'm curious if I should import a Note 3.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
If you're in Japan, buy a Note 3 here.

If not, don't.

The Japanese versions are the best of used in Japan.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
that is too right!!!:good:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] strebalicious:
Right, but that's not what I'm asking.

http://www.mpjbattery.com/mpj-8500m...sung-galaxy-note-iii-3-n7200-n9000-n9005.html

Will this work in a SC-01F? And if no one knows, can someone give me the physical dimensions of the battery from the SC-01F?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
not working,i am sorry,do not buy it....

---------- Post added at 08:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:01 AM ----------

simmfo,thanks for your hard working,

Root de la Vega, Kingo root and VROOT is not working,

how about they thinking?still fix the root file?or just let it go?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
I'll ask the devs again.

Sc-01f custom rom

Good day everyone i have a galaxy note 3 docomo version here in japan. My problem is youtube.apk always freezes every every videos i watch. I also tried fixing it like deleting and installing the app, going into application settings clear data.. That is the reason why i am searching for custom rom for sc-01f but i couldnt find one..if any of you my friends knows how to fix this problem : The youtube video freeze thing and sc-01f custom rom it will be very helpful thank you very much and god bless
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Check that it is enabled in settings.

Settings->More->NFC Read/Writer P2P set to on
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
10 Reboot the phone, reboot into recovery, then reboot into download mode, check that it says "Current binary: Samsung Official"

Repeat these 3 reboots until it shows official. (NFC will work then)

SimmoF,the 10 step i do not believe it, i do it 100 times,never show Samsung Official,can u tell me how to do it?????

anyone success????

do not paste this to us, this is lie i think....
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Ok. I tried playing with this last night.

For this method to work, you have to be Samsung Official to start with.

If it says custom, you must flash the entire stock rom entirely and reboot, and check the downlaod mode to see if it's official.

It took me about 5 attempts of flashing the stock rom to get it to show official. Then you follow these steps.

Another way that will work is install the 4.3 rom that's rooted, then use the dd command to install the 4.4 custom recovery, then remove the recovery from the 4.4 rom and flash the 4.4 rom, then install supersu using the recovery that you installed during 4.3.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
flash the entire stock rom entirely and reboot?

means reflash the office rom all?then check download mode show ?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Yeah, I spent 2 hours last night trying to get it from custom to official when I triggered it again to do testing.

I finally got it by flashing the whole rom image to the phone.

Once you get it to show official, then start this process.

You can always get it official by wiping the phone also, but I'm trying to avoid that,
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
when it show official,then go on the step 11?

and 11 [recovery tar file]means the [hltedcm-KK-KBC-CWM-v6.0.5.0_r0-recovery.tar ] this file?

11 Extract the recovery.img from your recovery tar file to /sdcard

Run this command (you can copy/paste it):

su

dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
You need root before step 11 works, if you don't have root, goto step 4.

Please be official before you start step 4.

Do I set pass for NFC/Osaifu-Keitai Lock? Do I set pass japan type for NFC/Osaifu-Keitai Lock?

i need advice on flashing some kind of ROM which have the same UI like S5. Which kernel i could use with my note 3 docomo SC-01F, and which rom is compatible for my device ?

Please help. Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Not sure about comparability with the Japanese model, but you can try an SM-N9005 compatible rom

This site has info about roms.

http://androidcure.com/top-kitkat-roms-samsung-galaxy-note-3/

There is an SC-01F CM11 rom also.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] 29y6145:
how to flash rom N9005 for sc 01F
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
The same way as N9005
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
sorry, i try too many times...nfc not work

10,when not offical then i flash stock rom, reboot, offical then

4.Reboot to download mode

Run Odin press AP and select your recovery tar file

Press Start and wait for the reboot.

.....i do not how to do....

whatever reboot, still custom....
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Ok, if you don't mind wiping the phone, root it, run titanium backup, wipe the phone until it shows official, then restore from backup.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
wiped, sitll custom...

i need reflash stock rom?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Try wiping, flashing stock, and wiping again.

It's seems random but it usually works eventually.

Sorry I can't give you a more consistent answer.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
can u tell me ,your system status is office? and current binary is office?

and u root use [hltedcm-KK-KBC-CWM-v6.0.5.0_r0-recovery.tar] this recovery?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Magimaster:
My problem is that I cannot get root access at step 7. Wiped and confirmed binary and system official before flashing CW recovery/SU installer.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
That's correct.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
I'm sorry, I made a mistake with the SuperSU link. That is a really old version (v1.0) that doesn't work with KitKat.

Please get the latest version from here.

I have updated the link in the second post also.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
nothing i can say,,,,,,,,,,,,,

we just need take stock recovery.img + cache.img.ext3 = xxx.tar

flash

done.....

need help

i want to know if its hardware defect.. i have scl22 au version.. speaker works fine when using music,tones.. but whenever im watching any videos even video records from camera itself.. there's a strange annoying sound( similar to t.v when there's no signal ).. already reinstall latest kitkat but still having the issue.. anyone experienced it?? any recommended custom rom? TIA!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Magimaster:
It works now, thanks :)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Kilihari:
So.. I screwed up.... please help.

I recently bought the Docomo Note 3 SM-N900D. I downloaded and flashed it with the SC01F-ROOTED-system.tar.md5. I don't think it downloaded quite correctly. I flashed it with odin, it said it failed, so then I re-downloaded the file and then flashed it again, this time it didn't fail, however now I have a black screen after NTT Docomo splash screen.

Man o man, if someone can point me in the correct direction I would appreciate that very much.

-Kili.

**NEW INFO**

I think I must be stressed out or something... pressures of life.... who knows.. apart from me feeling a little less smart than I thought(past tense intended) I used to be.... anyways...

Downloaded the DOCOMO 4.4.2 ROM, re-flashed, then flashed with the hltedcm-KK-KBC-CWM-v6.0.5.0_r1-recovery.tar. I tried the r0, but it didn't pickup my SD card, so I couldn't install the UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip. Anyway, I loaded up the r1 recovery after the DOCOMO rom and went into recovery mode, loaded the SuperSU from my SD card, and BOOM:victory:, like the feelin' ya get seeing a couple of hot mekkin' out letex lesbians... I got root access. Also, my phone is usable again.

-Kili.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
You can only flash that over the he same version of android.

Download the whole rom and flash it over the top.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
I had a 4.3 rooted firmware, from this thread. SC-01F.

Yesterday, I messed up with some apps autostart so my phone doesn't boot anymore. Hangs on Samsung logo. By the way, apps I removed seemed harmless. And useless :) Like SFinder. Why would the phone hang...

Lame question: if I reflash the 4.3 rooted ROM, the same I had on my phone until now, using Odin as I did when I first rooted - will I lose my data? Or it won't help at all in my case, and I'll need to wipe.

I'd like to keep data somehow. I think in case of wipe it will be lost.

P.S. ADB doesn't connect either so things are pretty bad... :(
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Reinstall the rooted system image then.

S finder is important. It can be disabled without removing it. Although it won't stop your phone booting.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Using Odin? Will that wipe my phone's data?

Except SFinder, I removed app called something like PageBuddyNotivSync. It was frozen already by TB, but still hanged in processes. So I thought I'd get rid of it.

Other than that, I think I didn't disable any special.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Why freeze that? You can easily block the notifications without root.

Anyway, if it's a damaged system partition then a reflash will fix it. If it's something on the data partition that's causing it, you'll need to rewipe.

If you have rooted 4.3 you can easily get rooted 4.4 with nfc working.

The method is to get it working with root first, then flash the 4.4 compatible cwm recovery using the dd method. Then modify the 4.4 tar file to remove recovery.img. Then flash that image with Odin. And you have a fully working 4.4 root.

It's much more stable than the 4.3 root we had. No more lockups and restarts.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
PageBuddyNotivSync gave me constant errors on rooted 4.3, that's why I froze it

Really? How. In app manager?

Sorry I'm a bit confused here. By "reflash" you mean flashing rooted rom using PC and Odin? And I still wonder if that's going to delete my data

I think I'll do. Later :)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Only flashing a data image or performing a wipe will delete your data.

Flashing a system image won't delete your stuff.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Cool. I'll try that.

Many thanks for your replies, and help!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] miandad:
hey guys

today i buy scl22 note3 ..its runing on version 4.4.2 and when i put simcard its say no service or emergency call can any tell me what to do???

.. i have access on hidden menu ..

can i downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.3 without losing imei?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Are you using an au kddi sim in Japan?

If not, then either your phone is locked or your provider is incompatible with the handset.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] miandad:
no i not using au kddi sim card or in japan....

can i downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.3 which i can use region lock away.apk..

if i downgrade imei will be null on few galaxy ....

2nd can i root 4.4.2 scl22?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
SimmoF ,

Thanks for your help this morning! I managed to reflash my device, it works ok and data is still there! Without knowing it, I'd waste much more time trying to bring my phone back to life :highfive:

The only con is that xposed does not work anymore. On original rooting, there was a particular way of xposed installing - install xposed first, and then upgrade supersu. Now, I tried to install xposed first thing after reflashing - but it won't install anymore. Wonder if there's something I can do to fix that.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Why do you need region lock away?

Ok think you misunderstand that region lock on the Note 3, is different to sim lock.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
It's not installing because it's not getting root.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] miandad:
thank u sir ..

is there a any solution for signal???

in Vietnam or philippine they are using custom rom for note 3 which is workig...

sorry 4 my bad english
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
It's not installing because it's not getting root.
