I just got my Note 3 today and took the OTA without even thinking. Now I'm on NC4 and absolutely no root methods are working for me. Anyone have any ideas? I tried all 3 stock ROMs, which failed. The unsupported root methods failed, through both download mode and normal. And the NC2 root ROM failed in Odin.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Chocu1a:
You just have to wait it out. You are stuck. That is why there are all those threads that say "Do Not Take OTA!"
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] edwmsjr:
You have only one option! Take it back and tell them something isn't working right and that you've done a factory reset and that didn't help. If they give you a new one, don't take the update!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] fletch33:
right now there is nothing once you upgrade without following dev path. you will have to wait until ?????

many times over the years i have had a device with an update that many said would never get root again or it may be a long time and each time it has happened. there is of course talk like this about Kit Kat on these phones and no progress looks to be soon but hoping for you :)

I was able to keep root from 4.3 to 4.4.2 NC4 by using survival mode. I am not saying it's 100 percent but others had it work also try at your own risk.

Better Modem & GPS

So, after almost three full days of running NC4 with root, I'm certain that the modem & gps are much better than those found in the leaked NC2...and at least as good, if not better than all previous firmware's.

I get a stronger average signal in my house (-97dBm) than I did with NC2 (-102dBm)...which is equal to the best I got with any other modem firmware. I also got a signal and completed a call from a network equipment room at work where I've never been able to get a signal ever before...ever! :)

On the GPS side, I've always had to use a Nike+ Sportswatch when I jog, because my Note 3 was terribly inaccurate. It would even show me as being on the wrong side of the highway or in the HOV lanes when using it to navigate. Since upgrading to NC4, it's almost as accurate as the Nike+ Sportswatch...but I haven't navigated the highway with it yet. It used to show my current location at home as being near my neighbor's house...now it actually is accurate to which room I'm in in my house.

Not scientific by any means...but very promising. :cool:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] JSkilnyk:
Like a previous poster has said. Verizon has been doing testing with VoLTE with the Note 3. It just made me happy that Note 3 users might see VoLTE sometimes this year.

Has anyone noticed, what seems like more stuttering than it was with Android 4.3? Like when I open up Hangouts it seems to stutter now. It never did that before. Should I just do a factory reset since it was a major update?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] NeoMagus:
Wont work with NC4, hes stuck with no root til a new exploit

Might help, I havent seen any stutter on NC2 with mine. Phone has been the fastest its been since I got it at launch, it used to lag on me sometimes turning the screen on even thats gone now
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] sharks58:
That's how it was for my Droid Razr Maxx and CM really made the second year of use possible.

I somehow missed all the hoopla about NC4 and only discovered it early this morning. And in my morning haze, I foolishly forgot to wander over here to XDA for guidance first and installed it.

I've always been respectful and thankful for the developers here at XDA. Hopefully they can figure out new exploits for us that took NC4 OTA for one reason or another. :)

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] hsbadr:
You can use this to flash NC4 modem and recovery without losing the unique benefits of the leaked NC2 bootloader (e.g., downgradability and the possibility to use "kexec" to skip the bootloader and directly load a custom kernel). The ability to downgrade gives an option to reroot when needed. NC2 firmware with NC4 modem and recovery works very well for me without any bug or glitch.

Edit: A safe upgrade to NC4 is available here.

nc2

I have yet to try nc4. However, I have been using nc2 for a week now. My phone works great for a few hours then gets hot, slow, and real laggy. Restart usually does the trick and a battery pull makes it work even longer but gets annoying after a few days of 2 to 3 restarts per day. Has anybody had this problem and had it fixed when switching to nc4?

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] bigdad1963:
Kitkat hasn't been kind at all to my data speeds or signals. I was in the mid 20's with dl speeds and now I am 10-12 and I was 97-99 signal strength and now I am 106 107. I have tried both radios and am seriously thinking about trying to go back to jb.:mad:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] donc113:
I use it, but only in my RV (and that is where I keep the MHL-HDMI adapter)and I won't be in it for a week. I'll certainly check then if no other messages in this thread.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Sportster1:
Ok, I'd really like to try out the new NC4 but I'm really confused. I need the newer radios, badly, if they're really giving better signal strength. I'm rooted and obviously want to keep that. What is the 'leaked NC2'?? I thought it was the stock rom? Does NC4 have the newer, better radios in it? I do not have Safestrap, is that needed?? I'm seeing JasmineNC4 whatever that is. Is that the stock NC4 hacked to allow rooting??? I've also seen the altered NC4 that keeps root. I'm confused on which one to 'safely' do so I keep root. Don't want to end up going to the wrong one that isn't NC4 but some dev ROM that's radically modified. I've also heard that you can accept the OTA NC4 from Verizon and keep root using the secure root function in SU???? I'm SO confused!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] edwmsjr:
The "leaked NC2" is a stock (factory) 4.4.2 rom that was leaked about two months ago that did not have a locked boot loader. It was the first taste of KitKat for VZW Note 3 users. It is...was...a 'stock' rom, but turned out not to be the final release.

NC4 was finally released as the "official", final stock KitKat rom for VZW Note 3's. NC4 does contain a newer radio/modem and a locked boot loader. Other than that, there is no change log to note the differences between NC2 & NC4...thus the creation of this thread. Some users have reported better results with the NC4 modem over the NC2 modem.

The Jasmine Rom is just a piece meal rom containing parts of NC2 and parts of NC4.

The only way to go completely with the new NC4 is to revert back to stock MJE, then root with Kingo, then install SuperSU and enable 'survival mode'. Then you can take the update and, if all goes well, you'll have the newest NC4 with root. However, all devs recommend not doing this because of the uncertainty of being able to flash custom kernels in the future.

So, for the only truly safe way to go to NC4 without giving up root and all of the benefits of an unlocked boot loader, you should watch

this thread

for beanstown106 to release a stock rooted version. When he does, it will read something like this: [ROM/ROOT][N900VVRUCNC4][4.4.2] Stock Root Odex/DeOdex [05/??/14]★

[ 1 2 3 ... Last ]
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] NeoMagus:
This is not true.

The bootloader is still locked on NC2. What you mean, is that it wasn't incremented to prevent downgrade to MJE, and the big thing was kernel modules enabled, which may lead to kexec in the future (for ppl who DIDNT take the OTA).

Would have definitely been a much bigger deal if NC2 was fully unlocked, it's not though
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] hsbadr:
Many mistakes here.

1- NC2 bootloader is not incremented, but still locked.

2- JasmineROM v1.0 is fully stock official NC4 ROM (just deodexed & ported for NC2 bootloader). It includes all official NC4 system/cache/modem/recovery, but with NC2 boot.img & aboot.

3- You can always flash a stock rooted NC4 & NC4 firmware to upgrade with root. I can post the required files by yesterday!! but I don't want to make others lose the benefits of NC2 firmware. One VERY IMPORTANT reason to maintain the NC2 bootloader is when you flash a ROM or do a mistake that makes you lose the root or need to recover from a disaster. At this time, you'll have no way to reroot & on NC2 firmware, you can always roll back to JB MJE to reroot/recover & upgrade if you wish..
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] donc113:
I guess this is what someone "in the know" needs to explain...

If Odin flashes the bootloader and both NC2 and NC4 are locked bootloaders, what is it that gets "incremented" in NC4 that stops Odin from loading NC2 over an NC4 ROM/Boatloader?

And since something got incremented....why can't it be decremented? Perhaps via ADB or some such?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] hsbadr:
From my understanding, Odin can flash any img file in the correct format, but a locked bootloader has security checks for the img signature & major/minor versions. If the file to flash is a stock signed by the manufacturer, the signature check will be OK. Now, the version check doesn't allow firmware downgrade based on the combination of major & minor versions. Non-incremented bootloader will pass this check based on the versions of new and old firmwares (e.g., NC2 & MJE). Additionally, NC2 kernel has insecured modules (i.e., it may be possible to load a new/custom module such as "kexec" which can be used to load a custom kernel from memory). For more info, check this!

If you can change the versions, you'd have to sign the file & if you can sign it, you'd be able to unlock the bootloader.

JFYI. I'm a developer in a different field & have just involved in Android development. So, admins/devs here may correct me if I'm wrong.

Would you be able to point me in the right direction so I may purchase this adapter? I'm assuming you are not rooted and are running stock 4.4.2 on your VZW Note 3?
