Not the PIT. Everything else.

I don't know if it's just me, but battery went down to 90% after 40 minutes of confings, reloads, 1 reboot, etc etc....so kinda average not heavy usage...I think it went kinda fast....

pit error

I have this strange issue that no one has mentioned here.

I am using 16gb 9005 hk version.

While trying to flash this rom, i setup odin as instructed, that is without pit file and repartition unchecked. However, upon clicking start, odin tried to load pit file and installation failed. I tried 2-3 times and end up with the same result.

Any idea?

And my question to those, who have successfully flashed 5.0. Have you tried going to the software update in settings? What does it say?

Do you flash all the files???

[Galaxy Note 3 General] brooon:
I want to share my experiences as well:

I came from the last up to date ota version, never rooted my Note 3 (still can't believe this one ;), but I'm happy). Flashed without the pit file, made 3 factory resets before from recovery mode (an old habit I still follow...). Flashed, made a factory reset again...

... And there it is: a fully working Android 5.0. No issues at all. It's incredibly fast, camera works, WiFi works, no lags at all (the device even reacts & works when something is installing in playstore, which didn't work at all on 4.4.2). Battery life is great, sound is great, video (hangout) works like a charm... When I would be forced to criticize something, it would be the task managers behavior. When closing all open apps (right button), it takes 4 seconds until something it going on.

But: THAT'S IT! I'm really looking forward for the release.

Just PLEASE bring back silent mode and do not disturb mode - what an incredible BAD DECISION to kick them out. Really, dumb and irrational.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Colide:
And bring back Chrome Tabs . . .
[Galaxy Note 3 General] brooon:

Pretty much the same experience as you, everything has flashed ok, and there is a very noticeable difference in responsiveness.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] Stallione:
For the guys who just "KEEPS-ON-ASK-ING"....

This will NOT work on these models

N900W8 - T-Mobile

N900T - T-Mobile

N900VZ - Verizone

N9009 - CDMA

N9006 - China Exc.

N9002 - Dual Sim

N900 - 3G

.....or any other model number if it is NOT N9005

This will ONLY work on this model

N9005 - 4G LTE (International, a.k.a. not career bounded, a.k.a. full price paid, etc.)

Its clearly mentioned by the OP and dont keep on asking the same and same question again and again.

I think most of the career bounded (Verizone/T-Mobile, etc.) GN3s got 4.4.4. update, which the International 3G and 4G models did not get (which we International users were dying for). That means Samsung is skipping the 4.4.4. update on International models to give it 5.0.0 straightly.

And that also most probably and sadly will mean that Career bounded GN3s will take a lot of time to see the 5.0.0. a.k.a. Lollipop update, if they ever will.

EDIT: N900 International 3G model got a Stock Lollipop "leak" prior to the N9005 4G. So if you are here with an N900 3G model. You are in luck, but just looking in the wrong casket.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] DoSte06:
Everything's OK here as well. No wi-fi, camera or BT issue. I didn't notice a big improvement in battery life.

MyMagazine is not working but I don't really mind.

I'm satisfied with this 5.0 leaked rom and I don't think I'll downgrade.

I flashed PIT, BL, AP, CP, CSC with re-partition ticked, no wipe before or after.

My n9005 was running 4.4.2 french career SFR branded rom, so it's not a full price paid one, as stallione said, but maybe there's a big difference between french and us careers roms, I don't know.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] jemis1983:
I do It Just now every thing is OK with lollipop after flash all the files PIT AP CP and csc WiFi work geart no issues!!!!

I really have my SM-N9005 running just how I like it on 4.4.2. Now I understand if I have any issues (I need a reliable device for lots of things) I can go back to 4.4.2 quite easily, and with a reroot, installation of TWRP and a Nandroid have it up and running as it is now in about five minutes.

I have just three questions. I can definitely go back and it all be fine ? 2) If I do a proper installation with the V5.0.0 .pit file does this make a difference or do I just flash my original .pit file as well when using Odin to go back and it will be all OK.

I flashed my wife's phone with this leak a few weeks back, and battery consumption seems to be pretty bad. The usual battery saver app can no longer toggle mobile data on/off in lolli.

There is an issue with BT. My phone doesn't stay connected to my pebble so every day or couple of days I have to reset the watch to get it back connected as notifications just stop. Works perfect with kk. Love the lollipop update but this issue I can't live with.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] WILD9:
I'm having a similar issue with my G Watch R - intermittent BT connection drops. Seems to be related to Bluetooth LE, I have seen several posts by people with smart watches but normal devices like my car and external speakers seem to be unaffected. For reference, I flashed correctly using the pit file etc.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ludzy:
Yep. My car and bt speakers work fine it's just my pebble.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] maqikpl:
As i know subject well this is a problem of ur smartwatches firmware not this rom.

Update ur pebble to the newest firmware, should fix ur problem.

2.02 and newer solve this.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ludzy:
Problem with the rim or phone it doesn't matter so I've reverted back to something that works. ie kk. Once my pebble works perfect with lollipop I'll be straight back to it
[Galaxy Note 3 General] paroulis:
Although I have absolutely no problem in lollilop, the bt has actually matter.When the display goes off , the bt can not reconnect , as well as the file download to my note (n9005 32gb) via bt is impossible (with screen off).Think is a bug with the lockscreen security.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] WILD9:
An example of another brand of watch with the same issue, this time Moto 360 - I think it is unlikely that all of these watches have the same firmware issue, especially as it is both pebble and android wear:

It's like Bluetooth goes to sleep which disconnects everything it's connected to. This makes wearables like moto 360 not function properly. Didn't expect everything to be smooth in this leak, but I hope there will be a fix for this near future. Love the new touchwiz!

The difference is that the car bt system does not reconnect when the connection is lost , while in my hands free sony sbh50,must press the button bt 2-4 times to reconnect .Indeed sometimes not reconnect all.It's the only problem I have at the moment in lollipop and dismayed because I use very often the bt
[Galaxy Note 3 General] maqikpl:
There is a tons of reports about this on google mate. Especialy about pebble device. This was/is not even only with lollipop. Many users year ago had same problem with 4.4.2 and smartwatch's devs made several fixes in their firmware. I think they didnt prepared for leaked 5.0 on note3.

Strange i do not get any issues on "non-smartwatch" devices like bt headset and car audio.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dlemma:
By bluetooth works fine with car and headset, I have no wearable to test it.

However, I've got a bug on the home screen button: for the first couple of days it worked fine, now if I long press it instead of opening the "recent apps", it does nothing. And if i quickly double press it, instead of opening S-Voice, it does nothing.

I just realized that also the multiscreen menu cannot be called anymore (it was previously called by long pressing the back key, but now nothing happens).

Anybody having the same problem? Any idea how to fix it?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 General] paroulis:
The problem with bt mentioned , occurs to me ONLY in lollipop!!!Never until now in the kit kat and several roms who have spent , had not happened to me ,for this i excluded to blame the hw of note
[Galaxy Note 3 General] maqikpl:
Sounds like old bug of map button. But usualy ppl get this after months or even years.

An old solution for this: To fix it, turn your phone off and boot it into Recovery Mode. There, wipe cache and Dalvik Cache, if that doesn’t work, try a full factory reset."

Wipe is good and bad idea. Some infos told it help for many yet undiscovered issues and should be done once after lollipop installation. Am i belive in this? No. But u can try. Tell us is it work.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dlemma:
I have just wiped Dalvik, but has not helped at all. I'm reluctant in wiping everything again, as it will take another day or so to reinstall all apps and go through their settings.

Is there a way to check / modifiy the key mapping?

[Galaxy Note 3 General] dlemma:
I had a look at the post (many many thanks for it), but before that I fixed the misbehavior in a different way.

I had installed a different launcher (APEX Launcher instead of TouchWiz) and it always worked well. It has the option to map some specific command to some specific key/gestures, but before getting there, I decided to do the following:

1) removed the default launcher from preferences

2) assigned TouchWiz as default launcher

3) rebooted phone

The home key and back key started to function properly, allowing me to open recent apps and multi-screen.

4) removed TouchWiz as default launcher

5) assigned APEX Launcher again as my default launcher.

The home key and back key still working properly.

I rebooted the phone and the keys are still working properly. Don't know what happened to mess-up the keys:confused:, but now is back to work as normal. :D
