You guys have to get root cloak and Xposed installed then follow these steps. Worked for me. See screen shot to make it work.

Thanks for the links! I used almost every app except watch on. I looked at the permission for that app and yeah, not happening lol. MMS is awesome and so are the toggles and settings. I'm seriously debating on not messing with my phone anymore. And that's pretty ridiculous for me;)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sudbury78:
I'm about to do this and am nervous of ruining my phone. Haha. I am going to follow the video in the op. Fingers crossed. The one thing I was wondering was why the video guy made sure all previous slots were empty. Did he also make sure we have no backup on there? I guess I'm confused about the option of flashing back to 4.3 if I want. If i did this I would be flashing back to stock 4.3 via odin right? Thx
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Harleydroid:
Yes you will have to odin back to mje if you wanna run a mje rom.

So you can delete the mje backups but if you plan on going back then save them but you would also have to go back to the jellybean safestrap if I'm not mistaken.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sudbury78:
I think ill keep a backup on my SD card to be safe.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Harleydroid:
Yeah that's not gonna hurt nothing. I'm sure the guy in the video just probably didn't plan on going back at all.

That instructional video is really good though.

So I messed up royally...

I was going to restart my phone and instead of hitting restart i hit recovery in the power menu. Now all it does is restart to the Samsung splash screen then in blue says booting to recovery and then just restarts :( What options are there besides full odin back?

Ive already pulled the battery out and tried to go to download mode then restart again...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] FormeriPhoney:
This is incredible... I went to sleep at 11:45pm ET and just got up for work now at 4:20am ET. The phone didn't drop a single percent. Idled at 88% the entire night.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] masterchiefb117:
Whew... ok so I guess i fixed this one... had to some who reset it from trying to go into recovery so used odin to reflash the new firmware and boot image and finally booted up normally.. fyi to anyone how runs into this problem
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] masterchiefb117:
So I do have one thing that kinda bugs me and trying to see if anyone has found a way to fix this.

Samsung splash screen on start up has the custom logo and an unlock lock. In the past I would use Wanap and use security hack to make the system "official". I have tried to do this again but after about 4 reboots it is still there. Used triangle away to see what my status is and it says modified. Ant know how to remove the custom image at splash screen?

After you add them you need to hit save. Following that, you need to REBOOT. Then after the reboot you need to use your S-pen to open up a pen window. In that pen window at the top , hit the edit button and drag and drop the icons one by one into the window. Bam! Enjoy.

Is anyone having gps issues like they're talking about in the other jellybeans thread here? Or is that a problem with 4.3? For the longest time when I ran jellybeans I had endless gps issues and there was no fixing it. I did a hard reset, I believe that's the term for it, when you use Odin to flash the phone, and have been using baja rom with much better results on the gps issue. Before I go flash happy because I've been patiently waiting for beans to release something new for us, I'm just curious about the gps issue because I use my gps all day for work.

Anyone get a camera error? Reboot seems to have cleared it up though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DrPhant0m:
Wow... 52 pages in 3 days.

I watched the video, and I have a few questions after searching the thread for a few terms.

I'm rooted on MI9 (initial fw release), with Safestrap 3.71 and knox = 0x0. Do I need to flash a newer firmware before flashing this? The instructions said "any 4.3 rom running safestrap" but the video said you should be running MJE. Also, will I trip the knox counter? (UPDATE: Saw the post from Beans that says NO - it does not trip.)

--

If everything doesn't go smoothly, and the SS install or Odin flash fails... what do I do to get back to where I was? Flash in Odin? Can I get back to rooted MI9? (I used the original RDLV method right out of the box) Can I at least maintain root on another build? My understanding is that the firmware is not downgrade-able and OTA / straight-stock kitkat builds are not rootable... so if I start to flash NC2 / 4.4.2, is there a point at which I'm screwed, to be stuck with an unrooted/unrootable phone, or a brick?

--

Will flashing this 4.4.2 release from my current setup interfere with the 4.4.3 release that many of us thought was forthcoming? Or any future release? I presume that flashing in safestrap will be all that's necessary for any future release (assuming it's not patched), as the Odin portion only flashed the new bootloader/kernel/etc necessary for 4.4.x (again, assuming they don't increment that in the future, as well)

--

So... Safestrap hasn't really caught up to this release yet, right? There's the new v3.72 released for KK, but it seems that there are still some bugs. Rom slots don't work (I never used them anyway), Reboot Recovery button doesn't work in the app, etc. So... Is it advisable to wait to install this ROM until SS >3.72 is released? I presume that the other basic options like wipe, install, backup, and restore all currently DO work... so I see the value in installing v3.72. And.. the upgrade process is pretty straightforward anyway, for when hashcode churns out the newer versions in the near future. Finally... I presume that after the Odin flash, previous safestrap installs are wiped out and replaced with the stock recovery.

Have there been a lot of success stories? How about failure stories? What went wrong?

Thanks to anyone that can shed some light on these questions.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] BobC43:
Just stepped out side and using Google Maps got a lock in about 2 - 3 seconds. Much much better than when I was on 4.3 with jellybeans rom.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] BigMcGuire:
1. I'm pretty sure you need to update to MJE, root it, and put safestrap on it.

3. My understanding is that this is a leaked OTA from Verizon so if that's the case, I think it's safe to assume this is our next update. But the last thing you want to do is take an OTA when you're rooted or you will lose it.

4. I've never used Rom Slots - kept everything on stock so I could have the most space available. I haven't had any noticeable problems with SS .72. I just flashed 4.4.2 - booted into it after doing the ODIN Kernel (see #5) - and then installed SS .72 - uninstalled, installed and rebooted.

5. I came from MJE root with .65 SS. I plugged my phone into a VMWare machine and installed the Samsung Drivers so I could use Odin to flash the firmware. Of course, I had no clue what Odin was so I had to spend a bit of time looking for a link for it - the mods helpfully removed the obvious links. Once I got Odin installed, it FAILED to flash the firmware - softbricking the phone and throwing me into a massive panic. No matter how many times I tried, which cable I used, or which port I used, the firmware flash failed 20% in - the phone wouldn't even boot into recovery - just instantly say there was a firmware failure. I tried to calm myself wondering if Verizon would let me get a new phone. But I figured maybe it was VMWare - so I pulled the battery, took an early lunch, went home, and set up Odin, Samsung Drivers, and the Firmware flashed successfully - then I was able to boot into 4.4.2.

Yes noticed the GPS thing too, and those of us with WiFi problems ---- those problems seem to be a thing of the past. No longer do I have to use a build.prop editor to send more power to the radio so I can get respectable WiFi performance. I'm pretty happy.

For those lonely owners of the SM-N900V Developers Edition:

I just installed N900VVRUCNC2, hltevzw_root_deodex_nc2.zip, and Imoseyon's Leankernel, lk_hltetmo-kk-v2.4.zip. The steps I followed (following the OP) were:

Step1: backup

Step2: clean

Step3: flash ROM

Step4: flash kernel

Step5: reboot

So far, so good. I am still reloading and initializing but the phone is working.

Here is my old configuration:

Firmware: JSS16J.N900VVRUBMJE

Recovery: PhilZ Touch 6.12.8 (cwm v6.0.4.7)

Old ROM: Jelly 'Beans' 6 (4.3 MJE 23 Jan 2014)

hltevzw_JellyBeans_B6.zip

I will report if I have problems.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] LillieBennett:
Thanks much for doing that. Nice to know we'll be able to go forward. I am not interested in stock kk however. I am thinking about testing the 2.4 LK on Jellybeans v6 though, hate being left out of kernel updates :)

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DrPhant0m:
Woooo! 100th post! Senior Member here, folks! :victory:

:::Combined with response from Borderpatrol1987:::

1 - I just want to make sure I don't introduce any extra unnecessary steps that could go wrong... but, if I'm going to wipe and install the OS in safestrap... and then immediately boot to download mode and use ODIN to flash the bootloader and new kernel... why does it matter which 4.3 build I'm on? I presume that you just can't be on a 4.4.x build yet... since you have to update the files in Odin and beat Samsung/Verizon to the punch. For instance, if a 4.4.x OTA is applied, you've got the stock bootloader and kernel, and you can't ovewrite it with the modded ones in Odin, since they worked some kind of mojo preventing users from flashing anything other than the exact same, or newer, firmware files. (I'm sure that's an oversimplification, perversion of information, or probably both)

If I do have to be on MJE... what root method do I use? I tried using URDLV on MI9, and couldn't get it to work. I had to find some pre-cooked ODIN files (Original RDLV, I believe) and flash them to get root. I might have been over-careful by not updating... but I didn't see a reason to go to MJ7 or MJE if I didn't have to.

2 - If the recommendation is to flash back to MJE... I'll assume that I'll be able to do that, and it won't be blocked as a "downgrade"

3 - Trust me... I've been on MI9 since I got the phone. I know how to avoid OTA updates. lol

4 - If I decide to apply this ROM, I'll definitely install the v3.72 SS. I was just curious if it was at all advisable to give hashcode a minute to work out all the issues. Rom slots and the reboot to recovery button in the app aren't essential to me as far as "recovery" options go... so I don't have a problem taking the plunge when I find the time.

5 - About VMWare.... I've used ODIN a lot in the past (this phone, as well as my S3 and other Samsung devices), and I've heard that it does not play well with VMWare at all. I'm glad you were able to get it worked out at home, though. I've heard other horror stories, like issues related to using a 3rd party cable, a USB hub, or even a USB port that's installed via PCI or PCI-X instead of one directly on your motherboard. Apparently Odin is a really angry God. You could also try Heimdall (those akin to Norse mythology... or Marvel's Thor... will appreciate the nameplay)... It's an open-source tool that is an alternative to Samsung's Odin tool. Not sure how well it works in VMWare, though, because Heimdall's biggest demographic is non-windows users.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] 4shlr:
I didn't really see it anywhere in the thread and if I missed it I'm sorry. But why is it so important that we use this leaked update and not wait for the OTA?? Strictly to keep root? Or another reason? TIA

I messed up someone please help. I flashed the kit kat update and all was good but then I factory reset it so it'd go through the wizard (I'm selling the phone) and I never flashed the safestrap before doing so now its just trying to go to recovery but it can't because I don't think there is one. What can I do!>?!?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Inkedadrenaline:
Can you follow the steps to get on kk straight from a stock n3 that's rooted/safestrap? Or do I need to flash a rom first, then go thru steps for kk?

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] wrichards2009:
You can flash from stock rom...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] BigMcGuire:
You install safestrap like an app on the market. I used Barcode Scanner to download it directly from their website. http://goo.im/devs/Hashcode/note3/hltevzw/safestrap Go there and hover your mouse over the version you want then use your Note 3 with 4.4.2 - Barcode Scan that link and download the app and install it.

What I did after installing was to uninstall the old safestrap then installed the new safestrap. Done!

Edit: Now that I look at your question, maybe I don't understand your question?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] wrichards2009:
Yeah it won't boot to android at all... it is still trying to do the factory reset by going into recovery. But there is no recovery so its basically looping
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Harleydroid:
Yeah it was a rooted build. If your going to sell the phone just odin back to mje. Assuming you can get to download mode. Then when back on stock mje you can do another factory reset if you want.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] LeftyGR:
Odin the mje stock jb rom. That way if it updates, there's no issues and it will take the official.

Unless you're selling it rooted. If so it would be safer to sell it jb rooted. This still has hiccups. As you found with the recovery...

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DrPhant0m:
Methinks he's trying to get a pretty penny for a rooted KitKat Verizon Note 3... Not a bad idea, if you need some coin.

So... I'm getting mixed signals about whether I need to update to MJE or not. Some are saying that you should be on MJE, but others are saying it doesn't matter what is in your stock slot, since you're going to wipe it anyway.

I would understand if someone could tell me, with confidence, that you need the MJE base installed in order for the NC2 leak to be applied correctly. But, what I really want to hear is that the NC2 leak can be applied just as well on my rooted MI9. For obvious reasons, I want to avoid flashing an update, and then worry about having to root that before wiping that install to flash NC2. The fewer number of hoops I have to jump through, the less likely I am to trip.

In Hashcode's PSA about this NC2 leak, he states:

In that first point, he just says you can go back to 4.3... but doesn't specify which build. Maybe it's possible to go back to any build, assuming the previous roll-back protection doesn't linger and lock you out.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] wrichards2009:
So I can odin back from NC2 to MJE No problems? I know how I just have done this 3 times now so I skipped a step
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DutchDogg54:
Yes, you can odin back to MJE - one of the best features of this leak :good:
