[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jovy23:
This is not the Darthstalker thread let's keep all Darthstalker related talk over in my Darthstalker Note3 thread. V7 was finished until this update came out of nowhere and I'm now going to have to rebase Darthstalker V7 on this base instead of the old NB4 update. This update seems better in my opinion, but everyone has their preferences.

Also everyone should make sure that Compulsion Kernel 12 works on this update and make sure everything is working fine. I have flashed Compulsion Kernel 13, but I have gotten a random reboot just after minutes using it on stock kernel settings without changing a thing which I never had a problem with on NB4 firmware.

Also I ran into a problem which all my apps that I have restored through Titanium Backup and also some of my system apps started to cause force closes so I couldn't even open an app and SuperSU binaries got messed up somehow. I don't know what caused it, but it could of been when the kernel caused a random reboot it messed up the rom side of things on NE6. I have made myself a App Restore/Force Close Fix Script flashable.zip that has made every app work again and everything is now peachy for me and I'm back on the stock NE6 kernel without no problems so far and I have backed up and restored through TWRP recovery without no problems either.

I'm not fully sure if NB4 based kernels are 100% fully compatible with the new NE6 firmware. I have v13 already, but It won't be released until I know that I need to add some changes to make it work for this new update so you guys have to try out v12 as of right now since Samsung hasn't released kernel source for the latest firmware.

Most likely the only thing that could of been changed on the kernel side on this new update could be ramdisk related changes due to some of the new knox apks and etc while Ondemand/Ondemand based governors are still a problem and hasn't been fixed yet even on the new stock NE6 kernel that comes with this Stock Deodexed build.

Will this delete Internal storage
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] YrrchSebor:
It didn't delete mine, which surprised me because it did seem to boot into recovery after the Odin flash. But all my data is intact.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jovy23:
Flashing the stock odin tar will wipe the internal storage (it did for me) for some people it hasn't. If anything just to be on the safe side, just back up your internal storage on your pc before flashing it and once done add all your files back.

If you have an sdcard what I always do is remove it before I flash any latest stock odin tar updates so that way nothing in the sdcard will ever go missing or get wiped (just in case). Once done, power off your phone, add the sdcard back into your device, turn your phone back on, and all is well.

If you was talking about the stock deodexed rom, no it will not wipe your internal storage.

Which version are you running?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tdgillihan:
You may want to try dropping back to the previous release of twrp and see if your back up can be reatored with it before you change recoveries completely.

Why in the world am I not able to add the camera icon shortcut to the lock screen if I have a password (Pattern)!!!

What do you guys think?

Thanks j
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jdidtht:
Yea, I have restored a few back ups I made on nb4, restored them after the boot loader change and they worked just fine, and also new backup as well, aosp and Twiz.. Everything I have used has worked great, and was a little surprised that nb4 backups still worked well on the new BL. So that's good.. I don't trust twrp very much, its the only recovery that has given me significant issues and just not trustworthy for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jovy23:
It's because of security/privacy purposes.

When setting a lockscreen security due to the user wanting to expand their privacy more on their device, the thing you don't want people to do is go into your camera app through your lockscreen and then going into the gallery app from there to check all your pictures, videos, and have someone delete stuff from there especially if your device gets lost or stolen.

So when choosing a specific lock screen security the camera icon shortcut is automatically removed.

TWRP hands down the best IMO, I am on 2.7 and have no issues whatsoever.. Never had any issues here.

Different strokes I guess, I did not like Philz too much and went back to TWRP, not as many options.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Melodic13:
Yes me too. I used Mobile Odin though. It didn't update my baseband (everything else updated correctly), so installed Triangle Away like you mentioned and then updated modem only. Used Mobile Odin since it gives option to update things like kernel, modem, system, individually, and it can all be done via the mobile device without PC. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] themichael:
I know you can check if the modem updated by looking at the baseband value but how do you know if the boot loader took?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] SDJB:
Thanks Jovy for responding. I understand your point but they have already worked around that by preventing further access to the main gallery but only to the camera in the immediate pictures that are taken at that particular moment.

I.e. If I take two pictures with my S5 and Windows phone from the lock screen camera icon I am only allowed 2 review those two pictures. Can't go any further. I believe the iPhone does the same.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] drmacrofish:
Yes. I have used them successfully.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sshafranko:
Yea wotks fine but i think once you restore NB4 it also brings you back to the NB4 modem. So you have to reflash the NE6 modem again if you want it. I think

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Devilman539:
Another thing you guys might want to consider besides the Odin method is transferring your backups to your pc or external sd card and completely format internal storage. That's what i did and I haven't had a single fc another thing you can do guys is uninstall the app, reinstall it then restore data only from your titanium backup or helium. That usually does the job.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] vibrantliker:
Thanks, Love to have it!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Jollyrancher919:
grateful

Just want to say thanks. Before this rom was having random restarts and data drops. Only one data drop in the last week I can remember and not one random reboot(thought I may of over clocked too much). I think the reboots were either me removing too many apps with tb or an update issue between android/apps/twrp and kernel. Anyway had very good experience with this rom want to say thanks. Battery has been better also

Just got to the end of my billing cycle and used 187gb of data. The tmo guy thought he wasn't reading it right lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] vibrantliker:
Hi Jovy, any luck with that script?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jovy23:
Yup got it uploaded, here is the script I have made to fix those app restore/forcecloses while restoring a backup through recovery or etc.

App Restore/ForceClose Fix Script Download Link - CLICK HERE

After you have done flashing the fix script you will most likely need to install SuperSU again since it sometimes seems like the restoring backup through recovery process also breaks root, could happen due to random reboots, or etc, go to the link below to download the flashable zip and install it through custom recovery.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jovy23:
It's in system/priv-app and its called Lookout_TMO.apk. If you have updated any google updates in the play store you will most likely have to delete the data of it as well in data/app from any bloatware that you have deleted from system/app or system/priv-app.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] lainemac:
It's best to Odin to the latest firmware to make sure you don't have problems with signal because of the new radio or bootloader.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Misterjunky:
re: flashing

All you gotta do to flash this rom since your baseband is NB4 is to

perform a full wipe including system/data/cache/dalvik cache and

last but not least a factory reset before flashing this or any other

NB4 zip file rom found here in this forum.

CWM/PHILZ/TWRP custom recoveries will all work fine for you.

You only need to Odin flash stock NB4 firmware if your baseband is not NB4 already.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] peacewarrior:
So if I updated to ne6 firmware and bootloader all I have to do is just download this rom, then clean install?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] snovvman:
Yes, and for me, it was the easiest upgrade ever. I was amazed at how smoothly things went. I followed the information in Post #2.

Coming from 4.3, I did a nadroid backup and a TiBu first, thinking that I will have to rebuild when I arrive at 4.4.

I first Odin'ed the stock tar to get the NE6 bootloader, baseband, etc., then Odin'ed KK TWRP, next reboot into recovery, then flashed the stock/rooted from post 1. On first boot, I discovered that my internal storage stayed intact, and all of my 4.3 preferences had carried over. No FCs, no fuss. It's been a week and all is well.

Are you on the latest bootloader? Did you perform a clean flash? Before anything did you do the stock Odin tar procedure first before flashing the stock deodexed build?

what happens if one does factory reset from within the rom? (settings>about>backup & reset) does the root stay intact? is the custom recovery gone? just curious...

also, I'm on latest ne6 (updated with kies3), and want to install twrp with odin, and then this rom (mainly for root, and sd fix built in). What should I select to wipe in twrp if I want to do a complete device wipe (including internal storage)? on note 2 I was doing "format data" and pretty much everything from wipe list except sd, and I was fine...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Misterjunky:
re: factory reset

When doing a factory reset within the rom root does not stay intact and you

loose any custom recovery and basically the phone becomes similar to stock

with all personal data and internal sdcard formatted/deleted.

Any apps you may have downloaded/installed from the playstore also gets

deleted.

Good Luck!

odin firmware NB4, let it boot up... u have stock recovery don't matter at this moment...

goto downloader mode..

now odin new firmware NE6.. that worked on the first shot...

then odin cf autoroot. - you can probably goto odin recovery, cause the problem I had with root, I had SU v1.97 which was problematic... you can root with v1.94 and he has v1.99r4 now which you might be able to skip the cf autoroot,

I would like to know too. Should I just forget the system update (via Kie3), follow the steps in OP to upgrade to NE6?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] SEB1109:
If you use Kies you will have a totally official Samsung firmware, that also includes the Knox files and Carrier IQ (controversial monitoring/tracking program) that come on the software from the carrier. Do some reading and make your own decision. It is kind of like "6 in one or a half dozen in the other".

Sorry, I couldn't be more helpful, but I think it would be more a personal preference. Kies SHOULD be easier. Or pay close attention and follow the OP instructions CAREFULLY.
