My wife got the VZW S6 and I got the G4. Both are awesome phones. I will say, the AMOLED screen on her S6 is brighter, and much more vivid. The G4 has more "true" tones, I guess. Both are awesome phones, but I am happy with my choice.

IT CAN BE DONE​

Here's how I did it. (And don't blame me if you brick the phone, etc., etc....)

PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THESE NOTES! Read them thoroughly!

1. Install stock NC2 (Instructions are all over)

2. Root with towelroot.

3. Install latest SU from the play store and update binary (you know the drill, right?)

4. See Chainfire's site here. http://xdaforums.com/general/paid-software/flashfire-t3075433 Get FlashFire

5. Place the AT&T stock lollipop .tar file on your SD card. It is available in the note 3 forum.

6. Run FlashFire. Once it has done its thing, click on the + sign.

7. Click on flash firmware package and navigate to the stock .tar file.

8. FlashFire will analyze the file and you will see a screen with partitions checked. These are the partitions that FlashFire can write (AND ROOT)

9. Click the download sign at the top on the red bar.

10. Click on the check mark to Create New Archive (FlashFire will create a .tar.md5 file take note of where it is saved and

COPY TO YOUR PC BEFORE

you run FlashFire! You will need it!

11. Next you will see the screen with ACTIONS on a red bar. Scroll to the bottom and touch FLASH

12. FlashFire will now write the partitions that are checked. When it reboots the phone, IMMEDIATELY hold the volume down, home, and power button to enter download.

13. Go to your PC where you copied the archive (that .tar.md5 fike). Right click on the file and choose rename. Remove the .md5 from the file name or odin will likely give you an error.

14. Open odin and connect your phone. Place the .tar archive FlashFire created in the AP section and flash. It will write the partitions that FlashFire could not.

15. Reboot and enjoy rooted lollipop on your phone.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] netracerx:
Hate that I still have to wipe data to get it to boot at all, but a minor gripe I suppose. Just hate having to reinstall my apps and set them back up. Thanks for sharing this, been waiting for something like this for a while!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] swapavi:
Yeah but if you're already on rooted nc2, why not just flash the stock rooted lollipop rom?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] netracerx:
Doesn't that process require using SafeStrap, where this process does not?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] swapavi:
You can use flashfire...

Plus why go through all this hassle to reach the same result?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] rgp1236:
That's absolutely true. but think it is a matter of preference. I had some issues with Safestrap, but were it still supported for lollipop, I would probably still be there. I also had a soft brick when I attempted to do a backup, which supposedly still works by booting from the power screen. SO for those who would prefer a cleaner option, this might suit them better. Flashfire also has the potential to install other custom roms. I am still looking at that option.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] netracerx:
this is the first post i've seen for the N900A that advised using Flashfire, all other posts required using Safestrap (which i personally did not like the idea of using just because it wasn't actually updating the OS on the phone, but essentially tricking the phone into loading a different set of files much like multi-booting). if it were possible to use Flashfire with the rooted lollipop roms, i'm surprised none of the thread OPs updated their posts to reflect that.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] rgp1236:
FlashFire has only been out since April. It is Chainfire's successor for Mobile Odin. It takes a while for all of the phones to be tested. There are a couple of other users that have tested it. Just search the FlashFire forum for Note 3 and you can read the comments. At least one other has used it on the AT&T variant.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] spank_williams:
reboot into download mode

I just finished your method successfully. Thank you. I would like to add that there was an option to reboot into download mode after flashing with FlashFire. I didn't have to worry

about immediately holding vol. down . I think the version of FlashFire I used is a little newer. Anyway thanks again!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] johnsoto85:
I will keep trying

Hi all,

I was able to go through all the steps but keep getting stuck on step 14. Odin fails at the very very end and never finishes. I have done the whole process 3 times over.

Questions:

1. When picking the .tar in step 7, I am selecting the largest file of lollipop. I believe it is an AP file about 2.2 Gigabytes. This is the right one to select in step 7??

2. On step 10 when it ask you to Create New Archive, do i check ALL the boxes?? Nothing is checked by default when i press the download sign in step 9.

Other than these two things, everything else seems to work nicely. I did also notice that when Flash Fire runs and writes the system, wipe is set to OFF. I figured it was like that on purpose but just saying.

Thanks in advance,

John :good:
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] rgp1236:
Sorry for the delay. I have moved on to the S6, so been busy with it.

For step 7, choose whichever ROM you wish to use. The one you have should be fine.

With regards to the second question, Flashfire should check the files in step 8 that are needed for the archive. Are you using a stock rom for step 7? If not, it might be able to flash without a separate tar file.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] johnsoto85:
Ok,

Yes it was stock and thanks for the tip i will give this a shot as soon as i can and see how it goes.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] razieltov:
So this will work to Root the Note III on Lollipop?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] fitzly:
What exactly does Flashfire do in this case? Is it unlocking the bootlader, allowing for flashing a custom rom? Or is it only rooting Lollipop? I was looking at safestrap for running a custom rom on the AT&T Note 3, and someone mentioned in another thread that Flashfire was a better option for doing so, with no need for the multi-boot workaround. Thanks to anyone who can straighten me out on this, and if Flashfire doesn't allow for flashing a custom rom on the AT&T note 3, is there anything else out there that does?

I'm under the impression that the AT&T note 3 has a locked bootloader, which is my point of confusion.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] carl1961:
Great Guide and find.

Flashfire has the power to bypass the security that would provent Odin from installing , for example a custom kernel, so be carefull with Flashfire, it installed a custom kernel on my phone and flagged Knox to a 1
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] insane209:
Followed the steps in the 1st post...worked flawless! May I add its good to clear cache & delvic cache as well
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Pscheoverdrive:
Excellent. I don't like Safestrap, so this was perfect... I didn't have to wipe my phone, and everything went perfectly the first time. One note, I did have to put my phone in Download Mode (as stated in the OP) after the reboot from Flashfire. Thanks so much to all who worked on this!

Update: The OC2 update happened pretty much immediately after I booted. The OTA update actually managed to complete, and I still have root.

Does this give us a recovery other than the stock recovery?

---------- Post added at 12:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 PM ----------

Does it matter that the single .tar installs dirty (no wipe) whereas the individual .tars wipe before they write?

I did the upgrade in about 10 minutes and I generally screw these things up and have to do them over 3-4 times. The only thing that I have to figure out is getting into recovery afterwards (if we need to.)

att note 3 lollipop oc2 will this work for me

So I have stock att note 3 on lollipop oc2 latest updates. Will all this work for me ? I was looking at this or safestrap and trying to find the best choice to try and root and give option for roms and customization. Had some experience on the original note, had the note 3 for a couple of years now with extended battery and if I can root it I can keep it til the note 6 comes out hopefully with sd card and removable battery options.

Thanks for any advice or help.

It took 2 tries, but it worked. I still have root on Lollipop 5. Will check back after updates. :)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] UberSprode:
I've tried using this method several times, several different ways.

When I try with the stock, unmodded N900AUCUEOC1_N900AATTEOC1_N900AUCUEOC1_HOME.tar.md5 file, it doesn't keep root after the update,

when I try with N900A_OC1_Lollipop_Stock_Rooted_Backup.zip file, FlashFire takes ages to scan the file, then force quits when it reaches 100%.

It sounds like other people were able to use these same files just fine, so I'm not sure what I'm doing differently.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] sameog:
2 words: mission accomplished!

After reading and going through this process, this setup, in my mind, was easier and a cleaner approach. NOTE: It's not to say that other devs and users didn't have a viable solution -- you all deserve props for your efforts too! =)

I used flashfire without a hitch (chainfire is a effin' beast).

Gang, I recommended using the above process. Granted, safestrap isn't officially supported by lollipop. I *do* blame AT&T for running their c0ckblocking locked (excuse the language but it's true) bootloaders, but hey, it gives some of us out there a challenge.

Again, thanks a million guys for all that you do! you stink AT&T!

I used the stock at&t lollipop .tar file. As long as your flashing in flashfire, you preserve root.

I choose to have flashfire shut down my phone and I pop out the battery for around 5 minutes. I hope this helps. =)

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] romagee:
Hey ozzman39, you will likely need to edit your APN settings for your carrier in order to re-add the mms feature. You can easily Google your model/carrier APN settings. My phone is an AT&T but the carrier is t-mobile so I had to add the following line to the mmsc section: "http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc". There may be several different settings for each carrier so you try to see which works best for you.

[Moto X Q&A] jjohns63:
I have a XT1053 with stock 4.4.4 and have been having this problem for the last few months.

Somehow, the touchless control is now stuck behind my PIN lock. I have encrypted my phone, so the PIN lock is required. I used to be able to do things like "OK Google Now, what's the weather?" and Google Now would open and show me the weather, or send text messages. Basically the usual use, but recently the touchless control screen doesn't show when I say "OK Google Now", just the PIN screen. I can tell that the voice recognition is happening because Google Now will read me part of the weather, but usually gets cut off as the device goes to sleep before it finishes.

I'm not prompted to say or enter my PIN, I can enter it and get into the Google Now screen but not without using my fingers.

I haven't been able to find anyone else having this particular problem so I don't really know what to try. I've tried disabling Touchless Control, retraining, uninstalling updates (Moto Voice) all to no avail.

Anyone else seeing this? Any ideas?
