Leaked 5.0 >>> Official 5.0

I was on "Leaked Lollipop 5.0 without Root or Custom recovery" before updated to "Official Lollipop 5.0 - Poland".

I have a 32GB Unlocked SM-N9005 Note 3.

Here's what happened :cyclops:

# No problems so far. Feels a bit snappy compared to leaked lollipop. :)

# Special thanks to [MENTION=1339199]DeuXGod[/MENTION] for clarifying lot of things through out the thread. :highfive:

# Thanks to all the uploaders and other people who helped alone the way. :good: You guys are awesome. :highfive:

# Hope you all have a trouble free update process. See you later :victory:

Looking for away to root now. Any suggestions ? My warranty is over.

Any solution for me please?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] DeuXGod:
Shut down phone totally. Boot to download mode using the 3 keys combination (volume down+home+power) and reflash the firmware your baseband didn't stick.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] xclub_101:
I am also on 4.3 and we are almost certainly on the older bootloader, I believe people on 4.3 MUST update the bootloader before going to either 4.4 or 5.0, simplest way would be with an intermediate step with Mobile Odin Pro to 4.4 with the well-documented method to update the bootloader (and keep root) and then again with Mobile Odin Pro to 5.0 (there is a description here) and again keep root.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] DoSte06:
French is included, you will have to change keyboard language and "handwriting recognition" as well if you want an azerty keyboard.

I recommand you to save your APN settings (Settings, Connections, More networks, Mobile Networks, Access Point Names, check wich one is ticked on, click on it to enter the settings and write them somewhere) to enter them back after flash. After flashing the official rom, my phone didn't have a full connection to sfr mobile network (SFR settings were included but mms failed to be downloaded and I only had a very basic connection, only calls and texts) and I had to search on the web for SFR APN settings in order to be LTE connected again.

If it helps, that's

what I did to go straight to official rom from leaked :

- Booted my phone in recovery mode (vol up + home + power) and wiped data and cache before flashing.

- Downloaded the Polish unbranded firmware from the OP and the Android 4.4. PIT file DeuXGod gently shared couple pages before.

- Extracted the ZIP files on my PC.

- Booted my phone in download mode (vol down + home + power) and connected it to my PC.

- Run Odin 3.09 as administrator.

- Put the PIT file in PIT and checked "re-partition" was ticked on.

- Put the tar.md5 file in AP, checked "Auto reboot " and "F. Reset Time" were ticked on, and ticked on "Phone Bootloader update".

- Clicked on start and waited almost 8 minutes to pass the flash.

- Waited half an hour for my phone to boot, it was stucked on Samsung boot animation logo :rolleyes:

- Decided to boot in recovery mode to wipe again (data and cache)

- Rebooted my phone, waited almost 5mn and it finally booted normally.

I don't have wifi passwords issue, nor camera recording issue. It seems to be a little bit smoother now and everything seems to work correctly. I didn't noticed major changes from leaked rom (just "LTE" instead of "4G" in the status bar), there's not the ultra power saving mode that I was waiting for.

Thanks everybody for your help and for sharing all the files and tools needed :D:highfive:

Also, anybody tried xposed for lollipop ?

You can install this ROM with kitkat bootloader but you will have problems with wifi forgetting passwords and YouTube video getting slow and laggy. Plus towel root is dependant from a kernel exploit not from the bootloader.

Am i the only one to witness that this update erased my Internal Storage ? .. unluckily i ddnt back it up before and no one i guess mentioned anything about it : (
[Galaxy Note 3 General] DoSte06:
This fact was already mentionned in this thread. Edit : I thought it was mentionned but maybe it was in the leaked rom thread, sorry.

Some people managed to keep all their data, but I don't know how since I had to do a repartition (which wipes the phone) to go from leak to official. Maybe nothing was deleted because this official rom is made to be an ota update of 4.4.2. and when you update your phone this way, it generally keeps your data.

After so much try I realised that I wasn't going manually into download mode. I eventually did and reflashed the leaked one and now everything works but am on leaked not official :(

In December with the lollipop leak there was a PIT file included. The PIT file has the purpose of changing partitions layout, making system bigger or smaller. In this case it made the system partition smaller an when trying to flash a bigger rom you couldn't cause of lack of size. If you didn't flash the leak you should be good to go. If you did and have problems in Odin because of Size, just look a few pages back. I posted a PIT file that fixes everything (but wipes you internal memory).

I am back,

I have finished upgrading my Note 3 from 4.4.2 stock Orange Romania, Sim Locked to Android 5.0 XEO Poland.

Everything is great, no problems with wifi password, and no data lost ! Everything is on the phone, apps, pictures, docs...

On the first bootup - startup, the phone was a bit lagging, and as above me was mentioned about the lockscreen flicker, yes i think it was but now is all good, maybe it was just me.

I have the Sview cover, and there are big improvements, new clock styles WAW, and options.

Go ahead and upgrade.

Use Odin + Samsung drivers and everything is ok.

Will I not get OTA anymore? Of course not. But ho cares?

Ps. My phone is still Sim locked on Orange Ro, nothing changed.

Lollipop is superb ;)
