Update 2.14 does flash eventually? I have been waiting here now more than 15 minutes and am wondering if I should battery pull at this point.

Personally I would rather have the email FCs than install MyMagazine and that other apk. I have been getting the FCs from day one of this Note because I stripped those apps from the get go. I got used to it and I just re-launch the email app. To me it is no big deal considering the trade offs. To each his own. I just wished the dependency was not there (you have to have a stripped-down custom skinned version of Flip Board to use email (huh?)).

Do this

It sticks. For now, battery pull, it reboots to recovery, reflash if you want, reboot to system, update sticks.

You get a clutch of new Xposed modules, new kernel and updates in system apps.

New system ui and framework complete the update.

Should be working fine. Just check your about phone and installed Xposed modules and you'll see the new items.

The one module I nuked was maximize lockscreen widgets.

I see, thanks for letting me know about the my magazine apk. I thought that this fix may have not included that. So I will be fine with the FC's.

OK to everyone above I flashed the 2.14 update late last night and it would not complete for me. So I held power till it rebooted. On first look it seemed to fully update but after installing an app from the playstore and trying to launch it from notifications I was getting a systemui error and the app wouldn't launch from notifications but launched from the icon just fine. I also couldn't access hd calling setting either. I then rebooted to recovery and flashed 2.14 again and it finished. This fixed the launching app from notifications but not hd calling. What I ended up doing to get everything working was to re install 2.1 boot up set up rom. Reboot to recovery try to flash 2.14 and it hung and didn't fully flash again so I held power+volup to reboot recovery and flashed 2.14 again and it didn't hang it fully flashed. After that everything seems to be working great.

All I can say is thank g that the reboot from battery pull goes straight to recovery because I have a heck of time getting the button presses to work, often more than a half hour. Did second flash, completed, have not finished setup yet but so far so good.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
It actually stuck the first time for me, battery pull or no. But I felt it better to do the extra flash anyway.

The updater script on this is writing to data, and doing some pretty sophisticated stuff. Second flash is quick because none of that is going on.

Ultimately, it seems everything is working as expected.

How long do I wait to do the battery pull after initial install?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dvtmg704:
I waited like 5 min

N3 Hacked
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
First time, 5 minutes, battery pull, reboot to recovery, forced reboot by me to system, update stuck (build number, new apps, kernel, etc).

Second time, restored pre-flash backup, flashed update, 15 minutes, battery pull, reboot to TWRP, reflash, success in like 5 seconds, reboot, again update stuck.

Tries 3 and 4 repeated, same results. Always stalled, always battery pull, update always stuck. Longest wait was 30 minutes.

Ok. I've been at this for about an hour now... Followed these instructions and did the battery pull. Now every time I go back into recovery and install 2.14 again I get a "Failed" It reboots fine and It goes through the "android is upgrading" screen like normal, but then I start getting a series of Google services errors. Am I missing a step? Should I be clearing caches or permissions or anything?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jconway1968:
Here is a screen shot
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] GavinMazey:
Pretty sure those errors just mean you need to update Google play services through the market. If you click on one of the errors it should take you to the playstore to update Google services.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jconway1968:
Well, now that sounds easy enough... I'm in my fourth attempt at flashing 2.14 but I will try this suggestion after it is done.

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mmillercts:
When I flashed it did get stuck, left it for a few mins and then did a vol down home and power reboot. Installed again, and it really flashed quick. All is good.....

Now I know you all are going to love this... (Everyone but me!). So, on my fourth attempt, I decided to let the initial install go a nice long time (20 minutes) and then I did the battery pull. Only this time instead of booting back into TWRP it went into a boot loop. So, now I'm back in recovery and installing my 2.13 backup. Before I start the entire process again, is there something that I am doing wrong that would cause "Fails" and boot loops instead of what you all are getting??? Also, keep in mind I'm the guy with the video clips problem and I'm really hoping that this update is going to help with that as well. Since nothing that anyone has suggested so far has worked... I've obviously done something to upset the TECH GODS...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] blackcanopy:
Delete the update copy you have and Re download it, you may have a bad download if you're getting a "fail" message during the flash.

---------- Post added at 04:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:44 PM ----------

I just downloaded and flashed the update myself as following.. If you're like me and hate the battery pull method, try this.. (removing and replacing the Otter Box case is more than inconvenient[emoji6])

-boot into recovery

-Nandroid backup

-flash the update (it will hang up at data stage)

-hold power button until the phone reboots (you'll get a message saying you heald the power button more than 7 seconds), ignore the message.

-hold the power button again until the phone turns off.

-hold power, volume up and home to boot into recovery (timing is key here keep it under 7 seconds)

-flash the update again (takes only seconds)

-reboot to system

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] blackcanopy:
I don't know where your blue took Skip to, but if your bluetooth skips, try rebooting your phone. That should help solve the issue. Then sit back and hope that Skip writes you a letter with an address where to find him [emoji6][emoji1]

NABD is another rom, including build and apps. The differences are indistinguishable, and the flashable bootloaders are NAB. Consider them interchangeable when running this rom or subsequent updates.

When first upgrading to KitKat, you either went to NAB or continued with the small update file to NABD.

Sent from my SM-N900P using Xparent BlueTapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] fitusv:
I'm sorry micmars, this is what I understood, so NABD is another software version ? just like kitkat so that means it's a stock rom or is NABD just a bootloader that I can download and flash it on top of the NAB eng bootloader that I'm running

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
No reason to apologize, but as I've noted on several occasions, if you don't quote me, I don't get an email, which means I don't know you asked something unless I'm looking at one particular thread on one forum for one device. Not safe assumptions at all.

Now, as to your question, NABD is a completely different Rev from NAB, but the bootloader that is open is NAB only.

See below...

You will see that the OS rev is 4.4.2, but the build number and modem read "NABD." If you are on NAB, those 2 circled areas read NAB.

In practical terms, there is no difference one can discern. Also, you should be able to flash any rom designated as NABD right on top of NAB stock rooted.

In a word, it doesn't matter.

Ok. So, I decided to start from scratch. I wiped everything (Except extSD) and then attempted to install the full ROM - 2.1

I keep getting the same "Failed" message. I'm using TWRP 2.7.0.1 and had no problems before. I know the download is fine because it's the same one I used before. I can restore but that's about it. I can not update to 2.14 and I can't seem to start over. What gives???

Some of the things it says on the TWRP screen are:

symlink: some symlinks failed

E:Error executing updater binary in zip...

Error flashing zip...

E:Unable to mount ' /usbstorage'

Hey Dude that boards,

Yes, you need to flash the full 2.1 ROM before flashing any updates. The updates are based on the 2.1 ROM, not on previous versions.

I'd recommend doing a completely clean flash before flashing the 2.1 ROM. That means wiping Data, Cache, System, and Dalvik Cache. Basically, doing a Factory Reset. You never know what hangs around from your previous ROM. Doing a clean flash will help prevent a lot of issues you could come across by dirty-flashing over the old ROM.

If you're already on a 2.1x ROM (2.13 or 2.1, etc), then dirty flashing the update should be fine. I'd recommend clearing cache and dalvik cache, but I don't think it's required.

If you're on an earlier version of the ROM (v2.0betaX), then you should do a full, clean install of 2.1 then flash the update.
