I tried to use Heimdall (I only have an imac) to flash the nc2 kernel. It kept getting stuck and saying "failed to download pit file" I didn't think I needed the pit file, but I didn't see how to just flash the kernel without the pit. Suggestions??

Found this interesting. Flashed another ROM in slot one and after going back to stock slot, slot 1 hijacked my BT connections. Thought maybe it was ROM I was running so wiped and deleted and started over with a different ROM and got the same results. After wiping slot one and deleting it BT connectivity is fine. This normally wouldn't bother me but use my Gear all the time and with no connection its pretty much worthless. Has anyone experienced this at all?

Anything I should do to NOT run out of storage space when installing another ROM to Stot-1? No space left to reload my apps from Titanium once installed in Slot-1?!?!

Used towelroot and rootchecker says I'm good. Safe strap says install complete but I can't boot into it. Reboot has custom logo but no recovery option
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] :
Are you using 3.75B04? If not DL newest safe strap. Make sure Busybox is installed uninstall current recovery install new version of SS. Reboot phone normally. This should work. If it does not. Power down reboot into DL mode then click reboot. That has worked for me every time. If Busybox not installed grab JRummys BusyBox installer from the PlayStore. Hope this helps

You should be able to.increase the size of the Data and Cache partitions as long as you leave the system partition the same size. That's what ive heard anyway. Have not tested that for myself yet.

If my baseband says nc2...I should be fine for the latest ss?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] :
Not entirely sure to be honest. I don't see why not. Try reinstalling 3.72 SS recovery. Then power off reboot into DL mode and reboot right away. If that doesn't work there is a NC4/NC2 build in Jasmine thread that will still allow you to downgrade if you want. To go that route and SS 3.74B04

Stock rom wont boot

So I was able to get SS working and created other rom slots, flashed rom to slot 1 but would not boot to it just the blank screen, followed another members advice and went to the jasminROM page to flash the NC2 BB "If you're coming from KK, flash Unified KK Firmware for RE via Odin" to get the rom slot to work. Was able to into the new rom but when i switch back over to the stock rom it will boot to the verizon logo and stay there. Anyone else have this issue or know how to fix?

Follow these steps to get ss working.

Download ss 3.75 B4. It has to be B4 or newer.

Go into your ss click Uninstall ss recovery

Go into application manager and unistall ss apk.

Install ss 3.75 B4

Press install recovery

Reboot phone and select recovery.

*If u created any slots using an old version of ss, you have to delete that slot and recreate it.

Create slot

Flash a rom, and say "2swizzle is the man!"

I'm really liking this ROM & purchased a key.

Anyone having issues not being able to access the "About Phone"?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] sickorsane1:
Can't get it to work!!

I feel like I have officially tried everything.... Looking at tons of these roms and this one in particular, I have towelroot working, safestrap working, I can load everything just fine on safestrap, then once the reboot comes it goes to a black screen as if the phone is off. I am on the nc4 OTA and have also tried flashing back to the nc2 kernel which doesn't seem to do much either .
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Saythis:
You need to flash this using odin:

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358551261
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] sickorsane1:
I already flashed that through odin with the instructions on installing the jasmine rom. Granted I flashed the whole thing on slot 1 rather than stock slot so I still had something to go back to in case in messed it up. Do I just flash this on to my stock slot?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Bobguy21:
NC4 does not and has never worked for me stock. Just boots to a black screen on stock slot or even rom slot. So do I have to odin the nc2boot.img?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] sickorsane1:
Ive basically been in the same boat. Black screens unite! :p
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Bobguy21:
Yea but in a few rom threads they were saying as well as here you have to flash the nc2 boot img. Not a full rom. Flash rom then use odin to do boot img. They said that will boot you right up. So I will try tonight around 2 am and post my results tomorrow morning.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Saythis:
Yes, you are correct. You need the unified firmware I linked which includes the NC2 bootloader/kernel.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] sickorsane1:
Yeah i tried that as well through odin and still had the same luck. I have tried to put the nc2 kernel on which is what people seem to be saying. Everything on my phone still reads NC4, frustrating.

---------- Post added at 10:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 AM ----------

Ah ok....i will try again this evening when i get off work. One question though, i am using the new 3.09 odin and there are a bit newer buttons then some older versions ive seen...Do i flash it under the "BL" bootloader button or the "AP" (old PDA) tab?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Tada10:
Just curious. Does mobil odin works for kernel flashing the NC2 Kernel?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kalebk07:
Nope. Tried it. VZW GN3 isn't supported. :(
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] :
You flash it in the AP slot. Once flashed on stock/safe side does not need to be flashed again.

Coming from NC4 and seeing that I need to Odin NC2 I did the Odin of NC2 baseband I am able to boot to all mod roms and it works great, only problem is that I cannot get back to my original rom on stock rom slot. Is there any work around?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kalebk07:
I managed to soft brick my phone twice in one day, is that a record? :p The first time I wiped data, flashed JasmineROM in the stock slot on SS 3.75, then booted into download mode on the phone and flashed the Unified KK Firmware. Everything seemed to be fine until I rebooted my phone and it just sat on the red Verizon screen for over 10 minutes. I went back and reread the instructions and noticed that I didn't wipe dalvik cache. So i went back, factory reset,wiped dalvik cash and everything in SS on the stock slot, and did the whole process over again THEN my phone wouldn't boot past the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 screen that says custom with the lock symbol so I had to download NC4 firmware to my computer and flash it in Odin to get my phone back working. After that I decided to just try and flash the NC2 boot image in Odin on the NC4 firmware I had just reflashed, same issue, wouldn't boot past red Verizon screen. I've given up for today. I may try again tomorrow. Any advice?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jmcclellan34:
I just have a quick question I'm on the nc4 Ota and I've went thru the whole process towelroot safe strap 3.75 and I have beantowns stock de-oxed rom running in my stock slot I flash the nc2 bootloader thru Odin so here's my question if I want to put a rom In slot 1 in safe strap will I have to reflash the the nc2 bootloader in Odin every time I change a rom or is it done flashed to the nc2 bootloader from the first time.....this is the first time I've ever had to use safe strap on any phone so I'm not really understanding yet how it all works with a locked bootloader ect...... thank you for your time
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] :
You only need tonflash the boot loader in your safe slot. When flashing rom in slot there is no need to reflash. Just flash ROM according to Devs instructions.

So as long as I'm using a rom slot in safe strap I don't need to reflash the nc2 bootloader but if I use the stock slot I'll need to flash the nc2 bootloader in odin.....
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] :
In a slot you need not flash anything but your ROM. As far as the safe side you need to follow the Devs instructions. I have flashed multiple ROMs in slot one and not reflashed any kernels. But I only run Jasmine on my safe side.

obackup & safestrap recovery

Sorry for such a noob question but this is the first time I've decided to put up with an android device with a locked bootloader and i seem to be having trouble grokking safestrap.

Did get it installed and working (after making several incredibly stoopid mistakes along the way).

So if I use obackup to make a nandroid backup, then mess something up, will I be able to restore that backup from safestrap?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] sfld:
Im nc2 base band and baja rom nc2 base..... i have safestrap 3.72 or 3 i forget.

So from what im understanding, i need to uninstall this recovery, install the new one, and delete my stock slot?? Or can i just swap recoveries and stay on the current rom im on?

Got a question here. I am up to date with the current Safestrap 3.75 B04. The problem I have had since updating to NC2 and SS 3.72, I have not been able to get Safestrap to install a rom from my external sd card. Is anyone else getting this issue? Is this a known bug? Will this be fixed soon?

I do love that I can use multiple rom slots again though, so that's awesome.:good:

---------- Post added at 07:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:51 AM ----------

Since you have a fresh flash, try restoring the backup. It should work. The only thing you would lose by trying the restore is the time it takes to reflash or odin

---------- Post added at 07:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 AM ----------

I had the same setup but not with Baja Rom. I did just what you described without deleting anything from any slots and ss is working just fine.

3.72 is for NC2/NC4 with no support for Rom Slots

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Hackenstein:
I just upgraded from MJ7 and installed the new SafeStrap.

Now, when I reboot my phone SafeStrap splashes first as usual, but now says DISABLED whereas it was ENABLED before. I can still boot into SS and do everything as before, so not sure if this is a problem or not?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jrbxx7:
No its not. It will say that until u create and activate a custom slot.

TaPpEd from my XpOsEd 4.4.2 NIII
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Hackenstein:
Ah, gotcha.

Creating a custom slot isn't a must though, right? I had one before with a separate ROM and got frequent low space warnings. I'm ok with keeping everything in the stock slot if there's no drawbacks in doing so.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Az Biker:
Using only Stock slot will give you accurate readings of available memory. Only con with using only stock slot; only running one rom :D

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Harleydroid:
Nope I keep on the stock side all the time. May venture into slots someday now that Hashcode has support for those on the latest 3.75 bld.

But to be honest I only use one rom. I back it up and just stay on the stock side.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Hackenstein:
Awesome. Thanks for the info.

I'll probably keep with stock as well. I was at a horror convention last weekend and my video crashed out due to lack of space and I had to do some on the spot T/S. Major headache lol. Right now I'm reading nearly 13GB free since freeing out slot 1.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] vick1377:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] vick1377:
Adding screen shot. Does this look OK?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] :
Before you installed 3.75 did you uninstall recovery? I would try uninstalling recovery. Reinstalling SS then install recovery again. The only way I could get recovery to stick was to boot into DL mode. "Home+vol down+ power then clicking reboot right away. After doing this SS splash screen pops up every boot cycle. It will boot from SS app intermintenly but not always. Hope this helps.

After updating from 3.72 to 3.75 b4 and nc2 to nc4 I can no longer make backups in safestrap. It starts and goes for about 3 seconds and then says FAIL. Tried internal and external backup locations plus different cards all the same. I havent tried reverting back yet but I just wanted to throw the warning out there.. Also on a side note since nc4/3.75 my battery life lasts about 4 hours, Though im guessing its something up with my phone and nc4 and not related to safestrap.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Az Biker:
My battery life is pretty good: on my first full charge on BajaROM 16.1 (not sure what Rom you're running) I got about 14 hrs with 4 hrs sot and 30% remaining, and that was a lot of video. Not stellar, but not terrible. Usually as a rom settles the batt life gets better.

I'm also on SS 3.75 b4 and haven't had any issues making backups. If you're only running a rom in the stock slot, you can revert to 3.72 and see if the issue persists.

Good luck!

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] GilliganBMT:
I was using bigginsROM 4.5 and finally decided to go to bigginsROM 6 and at that same time update nc4 and 3.75 b4 and restored biggins 4.5 in slot 1 while switching over to v6 in stock. I deleted slot 1 and restored 4.5 in stock slot, odined back to nc2 and 3.72, then odin to nc4 again and 3.75 b4 and backups seem to be working again and battery life jumped significantly. I was expecting it needing a settle before optimum but only getting about 3 hours is way off. Something must not have installed correct the first time. For now I seem to be okay, well see if the luck continues.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] CCivale:
Ok, so I'm familiar with SS from back in the day of flashing on my Bionic. I'm kinda stuck on the a couple things for the Note 3 though.

I currently have NC4 as the baseband and build. I was able to root, install busy box, SU and SS. I can boot into SS and install roms into Slot 1 but they never boot.

I read that I needed to flash the Unified KK tar in Odin. Tried that, but it won't boot past the red Verizon screen. I flashed the NC4 kernel and got the phone to work again.

I'm just not sure what I'm missing. If I have to Odin again, that's not a big deal, but I'm just not sure what my next step should be.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jrbxx7:
Try flashing just the nc2 kernel after flashing the rom. Then it should boot.

So, in my effort to err on the side of caution, I wasn't flashing any rom prior to using Odin to flash the nc2 kernel. I was just leaving the rom that was in place. It seems that's what was making me hang on the Verizon screen.

I was on NC4 and 3.75b4. Im not sure what exactly fixed it but this is what I did. I had 2 issues, my battery life was about 3 hours from 100 to 0 and SS wouldnt do anything, so, first since I had backups of my roms I deleted all the slots except stock, odined back to NC2, booted into the stock ROM, uninstalled 3.75 and installed 3.72, booted into recovery and flashed a stock deodex ROM, booted into the ROM, uninstalled 3.72, reinstalled 3.75b4, odined to NC4, rebooted into recovery, flashed Jasmine 2.0, then odined the included "Unified KK Firmware for RE" and then when I rebooted everything worked.

Im sure all of that was way overkill but that made sense in my mind at the time and it seemed to work.

Hope you can figure it out.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rndchef:
OMG. Do I need to be on NC4 to use the 3.75 B04?

What is the Unified KK Firmware? Is that because you took the upgrade or bought the phone with the upgrade already?

Thanks for the response.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] GilliganBMT:
From what I understand 3.75 B04 works for both NC2 and NC4, as does Jasmine 2.0.

The Unified KK firmware is in the install instructions on the JasmineROM thread and links are included, it says it runs best with it. Its near the bottom of the first post.

7. Flash the latest JasmineROM release

8. Reboot to Download Mode from Safestrap

9. If you're coming from JB, flash Firmware upgrading from JB via Odin

10. If you're coming from KK, flash Unified KK Firmware for RE via Odin

I bought my phone before SS was released for the Note3 and Ive been rooted since, so I hope not lol. Ive only taken one OTA way back in December and thats only because that was what the instructions said to do lol.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rndchef:
I am getting an unable to mount system when I try and flash a rom in a slot. I go into Mount but system won't take a check. I also noticed that SS continues to look at the external SD card and not internal until I change it. Need to read if this is normal behavior on 3.75 since I have never had this issue with SS before.

I did not do any of the list, long time flasher not paying attention, but the ROM is working great. I will research but I am not sure this will be related to SS not being able to mount the system.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] GilliganBMT:
Hmm I am not sure. I shouldn't have had to do all those steps but it worked after so I dont know. Never had an issue like that before either.
