Sentimos el mismo dolor, jomix27. Por el momento, todos estamos esperando a que alguien desarrolle un método práctico para obtener acceso root del N900V, que sea por Lollipop o por KitKat (pues, por 4.4.4).

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] biscuits1978:
Okay I installed the cab file on my 8525 and it works, but it crashes after a minute or so. It maintains fine on my Today screen, but when I'm trying to edit the profiles of my MyFaves contacts it reports that the application had an error and needed to close.

I managed to get everything updated quickly between crashes, but the application works though.

I'm still running the stock ROM that came with the phone when I got it a couple days ago:

ROM version: 3.57.502.1

Radio: 1.48.00.00

WM6 version: 5.2.1437 (build 17944.0.3.1)

Anyone know of a good, stable, and fast cooked ROM for the 8525 that they would recommend, could you send me a PM with a link? :o

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] biscuits1978:
I installed the link you just posted and its doing the same thing on my phone.

UPDATE 2/26/08:

I updated my phone with the latest AT&T 8525 standard release:

Radio version: 1.57.07.00

WM6 version: 5.2.1622 (Build 18128.0.4.4)

I reinstalled the MyFaves cab and it works beautifully! It appears my previous ROM image was pretty horrid - had issues with GPRS/EDGE and auto-switching to WiFi all the time. Now I don't have those issues, and it runs sooo much quicker.

/dev/block/mmcblk0p25:

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2

filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2

filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock

is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legolas06:
Hi, I may not be the right person to guide you for this as I never converted my phone to GPE. But as far as I know when you converted your model to GPE you changed your filesystem to ext4. Custom ROMS require you to be on f2fs. You can find it in FAQ's section in [MENTION=1006674]lost101[/MENTION] 's thread: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58538836&postcount=2

To change to f2fs you will need to wipe data which will erase your data including 'INTERNAL MEMORY'. Follow this if you are willing to wipe: Reboot to recovery(TWRP)

Wipe > Advanced Wipe > Repair or Change File System > (select 'Data') > Change File System > Choose F2FS. The easiest way to do this would be to flash stock firmware

Again I'm not the right person here & you should do more research before you do anything.

Hey guys. I ve been using android since the dark ages of Donut and Gingerbread..:). But have never backed up so that I can restore from Google servers.

I ve been hearing stories about people getting all the apps back on the new phone, exactly like they were on the old one.

As I am changing phones a lot, especially S6, which I am.trying different colors of regular and edge, just wanted to ask how exactly do I do the backup and restore?

I mean, if I check Automatically backup to Google servers, How do I know when the backup is finished? How do I restore everything on the new phone? Will it backup my settings too? I dont need to backup pics or music, just the damned settings and app data, so that I dont have to setup manually each time.

You know what I mean, I am sure...

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] LostPerfections:
For anybody that wants to go back to 4.4.4 from 5.0 I can confirm it works great, I just flashed back with Odin. The 4.4.4 firmware is at sammobile right below the lollipop firmware. The 4.4.4 flash put it into a bootloop to which I then factory reset and it started up perfectly with none of the completely unusable issues I was having.

Bummed out that I can't use lollipop for the time being, but more than relieved that I have a usable phone again, I thought it was toast.Lollipop made my phone worthless, literally couldn't do anything, major bootloops and constant crashes.

I made another thread about it here

You should retry the upgrade, it's faster and more stable. You just had a corrupted file or something, if you really want the best is worth a try. It's 40% faster. There was just something wrong with your install.

Did you do a factory reset when you upgraded? A lot of Note 4 users who upgraded had similar issues which a factory reset corrected.

I took the upgrade and found it to be faster and more reliable as well. Still fingers crossed for a root exploit. At least we know if an exploit ever happens for 4.4.4 then we can downgrade to get it. Good to know!

@ lost perfections:

Success! The 4.4.4 firmware took forever to download but worth it! Thank for this!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] LostPerfections:
Trust me I really wanted it and tried all the usual steps. I think something is wrong with my phones hardware that works mostly ok on this version. I actually stayed on an old version for a very long time, I rooted "root de la vega" and took one ota using the supersu option to keep root when using an ota. The next update after that would not work for me, I would have had to wipe and odin to update, so I held off thinking I wasn't missing anything. Till about a week or less after 4.4.4 came out then my phone started crashing the moment I received or made a call. I hadn't gotten any new apps or anything like that but just in case I factory reset to see if it fixed with no luck. So I finally upgraded via odin, no root now, but miraculously my phone could make calls again. I am giving you this essay because I have a feeling this issue is related. It seems it's my phones hardware that is messed up and i'm just lucky that 4.4.4 works at all. I still have issues every couple days where I make or receive a call and hear nothing, with a reboot needed to fix, that is confirmed still after a fresh install of 4.4.4 after all the 5.0 stuff I tried. Anyways thats why I think it's my phone. I wish I had an extended warranty so I could just update and make a claim.

As for everything I tried in the update, I took the ota, which was literally unusable by anybodys standard, I could use the phone for about 5-20ish seconds before it would crash, turning the sound to mute would help, but still crash at a couple minutes of use. I downloaded the firmware and flashed via Odin, same exact issues, changed nothing. Did several factory resets between all these steps. I kind of walked through the process on that thread I posted in the OP.

After making this thread I did try it one last time and flashed via odin, knowing that I had a workable fix, but same exact thing again. If they release another update I'll try then, but looks like I'm stuck till then at least. :(
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] LostPerfections:
Yeah I did anything and everything I could, no luck. I think my phone itself is the problem.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] LostPerfections:
Awesome, glad it helped. I'm SO glad they didn't block the ability to do this, I'd have been out a phone if they had.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] YayNote:
Can you be more specific? There are two firmware versions that are 4.4.4-NJ6 and NK1. I assume you used NK1? I'm a newb and sort of know how to use Odin/download mode. What version of Odin did you use?

I want to rollback to the previous build until they sort out the radio issues. My phone was fine on NK1 but on lollipop it drops LTE indoors frequently. Aside from the radio issue, lollipop runs great. I factory reset after the update, didn't make a difference.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] thornev:
You can use any radio with any rom. Just flash the modem file via flash app or Odin.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] YayNote:
Are you certain I can use a KitKat radio on lollipop? Verizon Note 3. If so, I'll do that right now.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] thornev:
I haven't done it, but I have mixed radios and roms before for example kitkat radio with JB rom.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] YayNote:
Well, I'd still rather 4.4.4.. it's too bad. When I have strong LTE it's amazing. Did this speedtest today - kilobytes per sec. Incredible.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] donc113:
No matter what....once you go to lollipop, you can NOT go back to any earlier version.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] xm41907:
Doesn't the OP state that you can revert back?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] YayNote:
Yep. The OP did. Hell that's the title of the topic and there's two confirmed posters that did it successfully. I only wanted to know if they flashed NJ6 or NK1 and what build of Odin they used..
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] YayNote:
Okay, to anyone whose interested: I used Odin 3.09 & NK1 (most current VZW build of 4.4.4) and it worked. Phone went into a bootloop, started recovery did a factory reset an it's back to normal.

Lollipop ran fine on my phone-probably because I reset it as soon as I updated...BUT, my data signal was halved. I get a weak LTE signal at work and by weak I mean 1 or 2 bars 105-115DB at best. Old brick building and I work in the basement. On lollipop, it wouldn't hold onto LTE anymore. It'd flip between 1x/3g..usually settling on 3G. Voice was unaffected. Hopefully they sort this out but this sort of signal performance (especially when it was fine on KK) is unacceptable.

Rolling back to NK1 has solved that. Thanks to the OP!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Ellises:
I can also confirm that flashing 4.4.4 NK1 from 5.0.0 OB6 works.

Tried it myself, but after I got done playing with it I went back to 5.0.0 OB6 afterwards.

I didn't look to see if it kept the 5.0.0 radio when downgrading to 4.4.4, but it kept the 5.0.0 boot loader.

I did not test the radio (as I didn't have a usable sim card at the time.)

Also, don't try to run URDLV on the 4.4.4 firmware before flashing, it will not boot (even with a factory reset.)

But I didn't try to flash a modified 4.4.4 firmware after 4.4.4 was already on there.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] NinCaptain:
so just so I understand there's no root for 4.4.4 or 5.0 but it's possible to go back to 4.4.4 from 5.0 ?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] YayNote:
That is correct. I went from 5.0 to 4.4.4 to regain some of my lost LTE signal strength. You can go back as of the most current VZW 5.0 build to 4.4.4 (NK1)

But there is no root method for either 4.4.4 or Lollipop. Whenever they release the next lollipop build including bugfixes, they'll probably blacklist NK1.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Destron56853:
So my wife got the Lollipop update a couple days ago and she hates it. She hates the colors and some of the changes, but above all she is now missing calls as well. A missed call notification will show up like 20 minutes after someone tried to call her.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] LostPerfections:
I did, that's where I got the firmware after the Ota didnt go well, same exact issues with the sammobile download. Odin also checks the md5 so I'm pretty positive I didn't get two bad downloads giving the same exact problem. Like I said, it's not the update, it's my phone that is messed. I'm just lucky it works at 4.4.4 at all, it has some minor annoyances even still when making and receiving calls, even after a couple flashes and a dozen factory resets, but it's usable at least. I encourage all to take the update, I'm just informing anybody that needed this like I did, so they that it's possible.

I'm finally fed up with the horrible radios in Lollipop. I haven't tried a factory reset but I somehow believe this wouldn't help anyway. Thanks for letting the community know there is a way to get back to KitKat.

I'm downloading the firmware now and will report back on the status of my radio.

Edit- just finished "downgrade", phone immediately downloaded the update. I ignored for now. Radio isn't waffling from service to service like in Lollipop. New battery inserted testing life now. I hope Lollipop didn't kill my charge cycles, ugh.

Yes bootloader is nk1. The aboot version of nk1 and lollipop in jasmine rom was the same i think. But i lost root now..
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] SickSkillz22:
So I'm guessing this is the reason why i have not been able to succesfully go from 5.0 back to 4.4.2? It fails on Odin all the time. So in the long run, what is better?
