Guys I'm panicking. I flashed the rom fine and then selected s5 theme which of course downloaded a zip. So from experience I booted into recovery to flash the zip ( without reading ) and now the phone is in a boot loop flashing samsung galaxy note 3 with a blue message up top saying recovery booting. Battery pull doesn't even fix it. Did I permanently brick my phone???
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jrbxx7:
Pull battery

Boot to download mode with the three buttons then hit cancel and it'll reboot

I can't get into download lode. Power home and up or down? Both don't work. It keeps rebooting. :(

Edit. Nm got it. Thank you sir.

Calm down a bit,patience is the key to understanding...:cool:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Tidewater:
Did you really just ask if they bricked your phone? Wow, really? I've seen some pretty ignorant stuff said on here about this awesome dev team but this is at the top. If you choose not to read and gain the knowledge from all over XDA about not rebooting into recovery from within the rom and get stuck in a bootloop, then that is only your fault.

I decided to stick with KK and have since kind of put myself in a bad spot, probably something stupid i overlooked.

I am currently on 4.4.2 Build KOT49H.N900VVRUCNC4 which is rooted using towelroot and has SS installed. When I try to install BAJA i get a plain black screen that never goes away. can't do anything except battery pull. At that point I have to Odin the NC4 Tar file and i go back to stock unrooted. I've repeated this process but for some reason every time Baja is finished installing in SS it reboots to a blank/black screen with no progress.

I tried going back to MJE but I keep getting an ABOOT error:

sw rev check fail fused 3 binary 2

If I try to ODIN the MJE TAR (even with the PIT file) it will give me the aboot error. Not sure what to do at this point I think i've exhausted my logical options unless someone noticed something i overlooked?

Sorry to bother you with my unusual problem I'm sure I overlooked a step that caused this since everything you all have done and instructed has always been perfect.

Thanks for any suggestions.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mjh68:
Maybe off base, but thought nc4 had to flash the nc2 kernel in Odin then the they could flash the roms.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jolly_roger_hook:
He is correct flash the nc2 kernel through odin and you wiol be able to flash

*EDIT*

bad info
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] SscoootzZ:
I'm wondering whether the 4.4.2 NC 4 build is the official OTA. I ask because I experienced the same symptoms. If you're on the official release, it's my understanding that it isn't possible to revert to prior releases. The fact I'm stating, paraphrased, is that the VZW/Samsung agreement is based on the locked bootloader. With each major firmware release, the previous firmware becomes unusable (eg, cannot flash backwards). It's my understanding that this was the case from MI9 to MJ7, etc, and including NC2 to NC4. I personally didn't read the PSA from [MENTION=3544615]beanstown[/MENTION] until I'd taken NC4.

I hope I've stated my understanding clearly, & that my info is (at least fairly) accurate.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] MicahJamesNRCAL:
After reading a few replies, I'm worried I might have ignorantly flashed an "official" stock locked rom. I had just finished a 12 hour work day when I came home to try and "fix" my phone so I went surfing the forums and found this:

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2483380

So, it appears I flashed this file from that post:

Model: SM-N900V

Model name: GALAXY Note 3

Country: USA (Verizon)

PDA: N900VVRUCNC4

I think this means im SOL on loading custom ROMs however I can at least get my current phone rooted via towelroot, etc.

Thanks guys for your input, tremendously appreciated

---------- Post added at 04:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:22 PM ----------

When I try and flash n900v_kk_firmware.tar.md5 via Odin I get the aboot error and i soft brick -> forces me to reflash N900VVRUCNC4_N900VVZWCNC4_N900VVRUCNC4_HOME.tar.md5 in order to get any use out of the phone. Oy!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jrbxx7:
Once ur rooted via towleroot then install busybox and safestrap. Flash custom rom and odin nc2 kernel and u should be good 2 go.....

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] MicahJamesNRCAL:
That's exactly what I did (3 times) last night with Baja and as soon as it finishes installing, I reboot, the Galaxy Note 3 splash screen comes up and the screen then goes black/blank and never goes anywhere after that (waited about 20 min). I can go back into SS after that but that's about it. Thank you!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] langdoy:
I was about to do the same until I saw your post. Then I realized, I'm pretty good with instructions. I knew that your problem was that you didn't flash nc2 kernal like the few replies you got said. I decided to go with it and since I prepped all my downloads, I was able to do the whole process and flash within 7 minutes. I'm already starting to set up my phone on Baja now.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Az Biker:
You didn't flash NC2 tar in Odin.

AFTER flashing cust rom, reboot into DOWNLOAD (within Safestrap) then flash NC2 tar in Odin...

Just to clarify. This is the nc2 kernel. Tar.md5.zip

That you downloaded.

And unzipped

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] barrackOBAMA:
Not sure you will get flamed here.

Baja has said many times that this ROM is for the people and he encourages suggestions and bugs.

However. Baja and the team are currently at work on the new build so many of these things will get taken care of.

He made note that themes are largely being worked on for the next build.

I agree with just about everything you said.

And if I can add Baja,

The file for the Samsung emojis available for download in Baja app?

I know you love your Google ones haha but I'm still a fan of Samsung ones.

Thank you.

Edit: apparently Baja beat me to the update reference^^^ haha

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] SscoootzZ:
Must be the correct NC kernel tar

Hi Micah, [*edit* [MENTION=4815092]MicahJamesNRCAL[/MENTION]...congrats, I see you got it ^_^ ]

As you may have read in my previous reply, I encountered identical issues trying to flash back to NC2 anything. I do believe it is an issue with having taken the NC4 OTA or, as you stated, flashing the NC4 native file (N900VVRUCNC4_N900VVZWCNC4_N900VVRUCNC4_HOME.tar.md5). However, I followed the instructions given by [MENTION=4670411]az_biker[/MENTION] in this thread (bottom of the OP), as paraphrased here:

Step- 1 - Root Device with TowelRoot courtesy of geohot

Step- 2 - Install Busybox from play store and install busybox itself

Step- 3 - Install Safestrap 3.75 courtesy of Hashcode

Step- 4 - Boot into Safestrap, Select Stock Slot

Step- 5 - Wipe Data, Use Factory Reset Slider

Step- 6 - Install The Latest BajaROM courtesy of Bajasur

Step- 7 - Reboot into Download mode From Safestrap

Step- 8 - Unzip & Install In ODIN This NC2 Kernel .tar courtesy of Beanstown106

***I just copied the text...the links in the actual instructions are the golden ticket to the land of Baja​

The specific step I'm emphasizing to you is the 8th Step. The NC2 kernel tar by [MENTION=3544615]beanstown[/MENTION], named in this step, (linked here) is the one I used just yesterday to successfully complete the installation of -- and boot into -- BajaROM v16.1 July 4th edition. To re-iterate, I followed these exact instructions implicitly. The install worked. To the best of my humble understanding, this should work for you too. All is not lost, it's just that the speedbumps are placed closely together ATM. Keep at it and lemme know how it goes.

So first I want to say that I absolutely love this ROM. Best I've used by far and I appreciate all the hard work that's gone into it. The speed, fluidity, and customization is astounding. Thank you for your dedication.

I have been hesitant to post this issue which I will describe in the next paragraph, hoping that it would go away with an update or a clean flash but I have been unable to find any solutions. I've been dealing with this since build 10. I'm hoping that others may be able to offer some insight or advice.

The issue I'm experiencing is that my phone frequently (~every hour or more) just turns itself off or reboots without warning. I will often pull it out of my pocket only to realize that the power or home button has no effect. I then have to hold the power button down and the phone will turn on. It seems to happen most frequently after being placed in my pocket and seems to have to do with "motion" or when the phone is idle as it will also occur when the phone is dropped. Although the difference is that it seems to reboot on its own if dropped, while the other times it just turns off. When the phone is in use it often is completely fine (I'm using it to write this) but as soon as it goes into my pocket or I place it on my desk, I will pick it up a minute later only to realize it is off again. I always clean flash and do a complete wipe multiple times (have done this out of habit since my old Thunderbolt). I figured that it was just an issue with build 10 or an application that would be resolved when I upgraded. However once I moved to build 16 I realized that it hasn't gone away and almost seems worse than before. I'm not sure what else to try as I have done a complete wipe, clean install, and did the same with build 10, but continue to experience these random turn offs on 16. Any suggestions or others with similar experiences? Thanks

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] bmwh0r3:

You're right. Idk what I was thinking. I couldn't contain myself. Its just u know.... Kk, beans, alliance been on build 6 since it came out....

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] bladerealm124:
I was on the stock ROM for several months before finally deciding to root and tried 2-3 other ROMS before trying BAJA 10, which is when the issue began, I loved everything about it so much that I just dealt with the problem and am continuing to do so. Luckily this phone boots up fairly quickly so I just deal with a 20-30 second delay about once per hour when I take it out of my pocket and realize it's off. But I am hoping to finally resolve it

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] MicahJamesNRCAL:
Maybe a bad question but as someone who has had to flash a million times -> Have you tried a completely clean flash? Advanced wipe options, clearing SD card, installing on stock rom slot, etc?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] bladerealm124:
I am now on the stock ROM slot after horrible battery life on the others. Battery life has definitely improved but the turning off problem remains. I have not tried clearing the SD card but I will consider it if I get desperate enough

Heya [MENTION=3849355]bladerealm124[/MENTION],

I've only just recently gotten into The Golden Baja land myself...not to mention that, though I've got SU privileges on my N3, I am definitely no superuser. Anyhoo, somewhere I ran across a sleep function in one of the tweak modules. I didn't enable this tweak, so I don't actually know what it does, nor if it's the origin of your issue. Not sure if that helps, but you're welcome to it :o

about the Alliance ROM?

Quick question about the Alliance ROM; if we have stupidly flashed the NC4 OTA, like I did, will the Alliance ROM still work on my device? I have followed your instructions to get root on that device along with the NC2 deodexed firmware (by you)

thanks

If so, just have a quick question. Been running Baja for nearly two weeks now and dig it. No problems except for one thing: Several sites I go to (on stock browser, dolphin, and chrome) all report that either "the site is down or your network has not been configured properly". Seems to be random when it happens. Just wondering if anyone else has had the issue and if there is a fix?

I have been on Baja, love it, and I'm excited to hear about Alliance Rom. I'm going to be that guy and make a request... So far Eclipse Rom is the only rom that has implemented the Kitkat dialer that I've seen. Maybe it's just me, but I like that dialer and would love to see that as an option in the future. And thank you to the devs for the hard work!
