Hmmm. Let's hope it is Lollipop. Keep us posted guys.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Walter.White:
If you are rooted...

Can you please do a huge favor? Can you upload the OTA file for the rest of us? It should be in /data/fota
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] brito300:
Soo is it 5.0??
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] ericplatham:
I planned on trying to capture it, just did not know where it was or if I should just zip everything. Was trying to find a forum post on the matter
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Walter.White:
Thanks man. Once you upload. PM me the link. So i can figure out if they blacklisted the kernels and if increased aboot counter. If they DIDNT we could enjoy root as well as custom ROMs.

Also file should have .cfg extension.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] ericplatham:
Found it... it is downloading super slow right now. What site should be used to upload everything? First time participating in this fashion :D
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Walter.White:
Mediafire or mega.co.nz or any other site you like.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Namelesswonder:
The AT&T Note 4 also just got Lollipop, let me check around their forum and see if their values were also updated. I'm leaning towards them doing it, but wouldn't surprise me if AT&T forgot again.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Walter.White:
They don't even have root yet (6+ months after release!) :/ So it wont matter for them if they upped the aboot counter/blacklisted kernel but for us its a huge deal!!

Unfortunately, the download is going at a snail's pace.

You can add code to the build.prop that will allow you to get the option. Works great; let me know if you need the link.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] dicksteele:
Before you install, meaning DON'T, just postpone.

adb shell into your phone. The update should be under /cache directory. Filename should be numbers.img. Like 26008.img Something like that.

If it's there, from a command prompt window type adb pull /cache/FILENAME you saw.

Make sure in the command prompt window you remember where you are so you can find the file.

After it copies from your phone to PC. rename file to .tar and 7zip can read it.

Horrible decrease in battery life if location services are activated. I go through a full battery in about 6-8 hours; with location services off I can get closer to 12-14 hours. Didn't have this issue with 4.4.4, so it's something that happened in the 5.0 update. Tried some battery pulls and it's not settling down at all. Did the update OTA, and haven't tried to reload it.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] jenol:
Hard reset the phone back it up first
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] shaftspaz:
Didn't want to do the hard reset. This is a work phone, so I can't root it. Most of the backup programs don't seem to save my personalized settings (what's on my home screens, my program groups...)

It took about a day for it to settle, but battery life has improved with the location settings on. I've had it off the charger for about 5 1/2 hours now and only used 11% of battery.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] littlewierdo:
The battery drain is caused from Unified Dameon(EUR).

There are a couple of options, you can disable it (no root required, open settings, General, Application Settings, scroll left to right to the 'All' category, scroll all the way to the bottom and look for Unified Daemon(EUR) and click it, then tap the 'Turn Off' button).

Alternatively you could deny this app location capabilities, effectively also Disabling it.

Or, you can remove the Samsung weather widget from your lock screen (this includes the SView cover), any home screens, and if you are using a Samsung smart watch, disable weather from showing on the smart watch and the Unified Dameon will have no reason to use your location.

Essentially, the Unified Daemon is what interfaces with the weather functions from Samsung to obtain weather for your current location but either it or something it interfaces with is faulty (possibly the GPS or the weather widget) and will cause massive battery drain and consume alot of mobile data.

I have been told the fault lies only if you use a Samsung smart watch or the weather specifically on the SView cover but I have had issues even with weather disabled on the smart cover and smart watch so, its up to you how extreme you want to go.

I imagine we'll see an update at some point in the near future to fix this as it is a huge problem.

Otherwise, I know it is a pain, factory reset and then disable Unified Daemon, I get 2 days of light use out of my phone and still have 30% battery left, tho, to be fair, I only have a handful of apps installed.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] neoman4426:
If it's the same method for getting root on 4.4.4 you'll have to be rooted and on a version Safestrap supports already if you want root, so you'll have to downgrade to one of the vulnerable versions, root with Towelroot or similar, install Safestrap, then use that to flash a prerooted ROM, either standard zip or via TWRP restore, then boot to Download mode to flash the other low level stuff in Odin. There will likely also be full stock tars posted which can be done all in Odin, but obviously won't provide root
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Arun1314:
Please do not disturb Mr. White and whom ever else working on the update let him/them sort things out and work his/their magic. Bombarding thread with 5000 questions will cause lots of confusion. Please and thank you.

But now its gone... (Its OTA zip for NJ5 update).
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] akv22:
I think it will be with a root already so I just need to flash it. But I am not sure!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] neoman4426:
To my knowledge there is no way to flash anything but 100% stock files in Odin on the AT&T Note 3, so like I said if you're not rooted already you'll almost certainly need to downgrade. If you're currently on one of the vulnerable versions of 4.4.2 no downgrade would be necessary, but would still require you to acquire root on that version before you could install the recovery before you could flash the prerooted ROM
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Namelesswonder:
If no one has it, aren't OTA updates given out sequentially? Meaning that one can downgrade to NC2 and they will be given the NJ5 OTA?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] akv22:
i am on 4.4.4
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] neoman4426:
So even if you were already rooted you would need to do at least a partial downgrade to get Safestrap working again, and since you aren't a full downgrade will be required. Here is a link describing the process for 4.4.4, which is likely similar to the method for this http://xdaforums.com/note-3-att/general/how-to-root-n900aucudnl1-4-4-4-12-24-t2983357
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] akv22:
I am confused with that.. I would rather just update stock and than root later or something!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] brito300:
I have a question... With the update on our phones now, would we be able to flash other carriers rom when root is achieved? ?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] neoman4426:
You're perfectly free to do so once either you're eligible for the OTA or the completely stock tars are posted, but keep in mind it's entirely possible that no exploit will ever be found to root directly
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] akv22:
can you help me figure how to root it?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] neoman4426:
That's already been said, the current only method is downgrading to NC2, run a root exploit such as Towelroot, then use Safestrap to flash a prerooted later version
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] akv22:
Ok well I try it.. sorry I just want a stock rom uploaded!! is it really worth to root??
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Walter.White:
