[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
I've no idea. So long as you're 100% stock, have the right CID and MID you should have no issues. It worked fine for me, but then again I'm S-OFF so whether that has anything to do with it I don't know as I downloaded the OTA and flashed it manually in the stock recovery
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamaniff:
Me to.. just back 100% stock RUU 1.26.xxx.x and I didn't receive any ota update
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fadimanansala@gmail.com:
bootloader doesnt have to be locked to received and install the update

can you verify what exactly was the first update you received?

after returning to stock yesterday, i received two updates and downloaded both

first update was some firmware fix and the second was the 4.3 update

both run flawlessly and now i am on stock 4.3 sense 5.5

s-off, unlocked bootloader
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bnathan:
Does flashing a RUU also install the correct recovery? I have my HTC One S-off, unlocked and changed the CID to 11111111, flashed the RUU and now when I get the OTA it just comes up with the error that my version of Android is modified so it can not be updated.

What have I done wrong?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] lopies:
More info.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] lopies:
MJ4. New firmware.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] vittorio425:
Yea I just got this new update as well and I'm excited to kno what it's about is it just me or did the key board change a bit Idk but I updated it and I'm getting a lot more signal bars
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] lopies:
It looks a little darker if memory serves. I have been using SwiftKey as of late. I appear to have a stronger signal as well here at work. I hope this helps with the people who have been having issues with the crackling and popping when making calls.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] vittorio425:
Yea it is darker and yea I hope so to here in Chicago I didn't have that problem

so does that mean we cant get it then? sorry for the n00b question on this... I ususally dont flash my phones... other than sig...

can I do this through Kies???

gonna start looking..:o
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mvansomeren:
Apparently the release was a bit premature and the offcial release date begins today (the week of 10/28). I received it this morning. You should be able to get it now.

This update to version MJ4 primarily fixes the audio issues that some were having with the phone and also a handwriting bug in the Samsung keyboard. Not sure what else it fixes or changes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] TeleFragger:
I dont know much about the fw versioning...

but I just installed kies 3 and it said..

new firmware..

I had MI3 and MI5 is out.. im updating now... is MJ4 newer than

MI5?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mvansomeren:
Yes, MI5 has been out for a while. Once you're done updating to MI5 you should be able to update to MJ4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] TeleFragger:
Thank you very much.. so Kies 3 is saying im up to date with MI5 but from the phone.. check for updates is now DL something so guessing MJ4.... appreciate it! :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] thelastgoodbrother:
I think that this update might address the call quality issue people were having including myself. I just had a phone conversation that didnt make me want to toss the phone. I was plagued with pops and digital sounds when I first got the phone. I called Spring customer service and went in to see a rep and they new of the problem. The in store rep said that a download was coming soon...and here it is!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Be aware it appears mj4 has a new bootloader. Some reports coming in of downgrading flipping knox even on unrooted phones. May not want to downgrade if on mj4

If you send this to 25 Facebook friends nothing will happen
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] onemanruler:
As someone posted earlier it's the amount of files on your sd card also size and space avaliable that Samsung phones have issues with. So most likely you have a couple folders on the root of your sd card witch hold the rest. Just guessing. Or your just lucky look

I'm in the same spot. Just got a replacement an it's upgraded to mj4 ota. Not sure if I am to Vega or what to prevent tripping knox.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rawdikrik:
The only way to root now without tripping Knox is to use the kingopp app.

Vega will trip it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cherylbaker:
When did this happen. . Was not tripping it going from mi5 to mj4 yesturday

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Appears he's already on mj4.

So will not be able to downgrade to mi5 because of the new bootloader.

Kingo is probably the best bet at that point.

He should read the mj4 warning thread and knox safe root threads in the QA section.

Good info towards the end of the thread for people already on mj4.

And I'll update the OP shortly.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cherylbaker:
So he is mistaken. . Vega still does not trip KNOX. . DOWNGRADING from mj4 to mi5 trips knox. . Maybe. . It did not trip for you.

Sent from my SM-N900P using Xparent Purple Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
correct. Vega doesn't trip knox. but since there is no official mj4 file at the moment you cant just run the vega files on mj4. and if your on mj4 it appears you cant go back to mi5. it seemed to let me once but now errors out if i try. still hasnt flipped my knox though. but others have reported it flipping. lots of variables here. best to play it safe.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rawdikrik:
Vegas doesn't trip Knox if you are on mj4, only using it does.... smfh

Right now, once you have the full and legit mj4, you can't use vega.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cherylbaker:
Well no you can't use it but that's different than tripping Knox. . You can't even try to do it because there is no official mj4 full package which is a requirement for vega.. so no you can't use it and since you can't use it it certainly can't trip knox smfh

According to the sprint support page it is mj3 and is a couple of fixes. One being the call audio problem. The other a handwriting fix.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] joshuaak:
Yeah, i have the same thing. Don't want to silence it yet, not sure if it is something important. My guess is that it is a security measure that probably looks for apps with a market link and pops up an alert if it finds one without any. Not rooted, btw.

Can i unroot to receive update. So system will be unmodified
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dutchman71:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] stereo386:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mvansomeren:
Same results on update and "kies" I'm sure that it will be available later. Not sure why there would be a limit placed on their update services. Seems kind of dumb.

Did the update and the voice codec remained at 13k which is where I had it before installing the update. Question now is...do I need to change it back?

U probably should of did that before u did the update to see if the update altered those settings.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] spcano01:
For what it's worth, the update worked great for me. Now on MJ4. SPen accuracy seems better and a bit more responsive. I don't use the phone much for calls, so haven't tested that yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] copc:
MJ4 is for voice quality and a fix to keyboard handwritting. You are one of the few that uses a phone for little phone use. LOL

The rest of use returned our phones because it was unusable to make a call. :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] spcano01:
Haha, I"ve been told. I work 10 min from home, 8-5, and am on a business line all day. Very little use/need for cellular, except on weekends/nights. Love using Papyrus though, wasn't sure it would work with the size. Still contemplating 10.1, but given those reviews, will wait for 8.0 refresh or 2015 version.

Only responded due to the many that said they were unable to update. Hopefully they can now! If you returned your phone, why are you still active in this forum? Seems funny to me, like me still lurking in a Nokia 6824 forum or something. "Haha, you all still play Snake!" ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] MikeyLee:
So can someone dump this so someone can do an update zip for those of us who cant update since we are "modified" ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] onemanruler:
Yes please do I'm still sick on mi3 for Some reason and cannot upgrade to m15. :( getting kinda depressed that this is happening.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] copc:
yes I did return my phone, as I did not want to get stuck with a lemon. I guess I value my money... I returned it prior to 3 day full return time so I could get my activation fee and upgrade status reversed. If I would have waited to the 4 - 15 day policy I would have spent $36 and lost my upgrade for nothing. Part of being an educated consumer.

Now I watch all of the note 3 forums to keep abreast of the issue(s) to see if they are resolved. I loved this device (I can not call it a phone as the phone part did not work). I already have 2+tablets did not need another I wanted a phone to make calls.

I do not lurk nor troll, I am active on this site as you can see from my post count and the thanks I have received. :p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] spcano01:
Don't get me wrong, the initial response had me checking my days since purchase too!! I think it's a good call if you are ok with your previous phone, as you can always buy it again if it seems to get right for what you need.

That makes sense, I was joking - tonality doesn't get conveyed well in writing. Just ask my wife while we txt-argue. No bueno..

Either way, I came from a Samsung 3 and really needed the note-taking capability for work. Which is funny, because while that seems to be the biggest difference, not many people seem to use that function. Take care!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mybikegoes200:
So the million dollar question: did the update fix the unusable-phone (sound quality) issue? I ask because I'm chomping at the proverbial bit to buy the successor to my Evo 4G LTE and have held off on the note 3 for that very reason. If it's been fixed, I'll spring for it (and apologize to the litany of unwitting early-adopters aka Free Testers).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rawdikrik:
I upgraded to mi5 using Kies. Took 2 minutes
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] remyink:
For anyone that is concerned. I purchased my sprint Note 3 about two weeks ago now and it shipped with MI5. I have not experienced any of the voice, phone call issues. I rooted the phone right away and it has been working great. I don't have LTE here in Aurora, CO so can't comment on that. Voice quality is great though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] stereo386:
Yea the newest is MJ4 and supposedly all the voice issues are fixed so only time will tell. It would be nice if somebody could get the dl link for all of us that are getting that server capacity issue.

Flash "CF-Auto-Root" in odin it will give you stock recovery.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] drewiskee:
flashin stock recovery as i breathe, if it still doesnt work i will most def unroot then try it again. since flashin root and custom recovery is very simple
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] remyink:
Just flashed CF auto Root and went to system update and still get message "Your Device Has Been Modified"
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] drewiskee:
likewise and unrooted still gettin same error, i am just praying it has nothing to do with KNOX since im 0x1 already but ill just wait for someone to post a link to flash it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] remyink:
Yeah I was thinking the same thing about KNOX. I'm sure well be fine. We're probably just a bit impatient... LOL

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ParishM:
not sure any carrier can legally void the warranty just for

changing software. rooting the phone or flashing a ROM

will not cause a dead pixel or other hardware damage !

pretty sure this falls under the Magnuson-Moss Waranty Act.

Got this from another post and it worked for me.

1. Find the stock mi3 tar and odin back to stock. There's a thread in Android development. I'm pretty sure this breaks root and puts stock recovery back on the phone

2. Let the phone boot up and go through the initial setup

3. Turn the phone off

4. Boot into stock recovery (volume up home button power) and factory reset

5. Reboot and Install the update from sprint.

6. Root via cf-auto through odin

7. Install twrp through odin

8. Factory reset in recovery

9. Install the odex/deodex of your choice from this thread through recovery

This worked for me and I was able to restore data from my previous backup."

If you used Chainfire to root, you blew efuse(Knox hardware fuse), and you are done except for when ROM devs integrate. If you used De la Vega exploit, and DID NOT flash custom recovery (TWRP, CWM) you can always go back to stock unrooted, and take the update.....but if there is a bootloader update, you may not be able to regain root.......at least that is my understanding.:laugh:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] BrianBaker:
I blew the Knox fuse the 1st day I had the phone and went back to stock and was able to get the 1st update with out a problem..Only reason I'm not doing it again is because that new keyboard is pretty ugly with the dark theme and I never had an issue with calls..
