Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Set to Receive an Update
- Thread starter Turgur
- Start date
Good point, just checked should be up in a few hours, hopefully (that's a good place to go.) Has anyone extracted a copy of the OTA that can be installed manually in Android Stock Recovery or sideloaded?
Just to let everyone know. I was on Mj7 running beans on slot 1 , scott's rom in stock slot. update kept failing even after unrooting so I odin'd back to stock mj7 then update was successful. I then used the latest version of Kingo app and rerooted successfully.

Waiting to see if this works with this update myself
If I remember I had to unfreeze & reinstall all the stock stuff too before the last one would take

The only way to get custom gone is to odin to stock. You can unroot but your device will still show that it was rooted. I believe your true status is shown in the stock recovery.

Well, in download mode it showed my status as official with Knox 0x0 so not sure what the difference is in stock recovery. Either way I couldn't get update to take until I odin'd to stock. Keeping root in survival mode didn't bother me since I had used kingo before. Regardless , I now have the update with root so it's all good

YMMV, but all I did was rename the default clock app and odex back to their original names (I had renamed them so I didn't have multiple clocks), disabled SuperSU and set it to Survival mode and launched the update. It was successful. I then re-enabled SuperSu and all is well. I was pretty much bone stock except for Wanam, which I did not uninstall or even change anything. I did not have SafeStrap installed.
Can someone double check the home button hot spot bypass. It doesn't seem to work anymore!

One of the mentioned updates on the little graphic for the update was "Mobile Hotspot reliability has been improved" ..I figured they would fix that
can confirm this no longer works... guess it's time for a custom ROM now!
Yep!
I had this really small hope that it was for an actual performance improvement. What was I thinking!

I don't use FoxFi (native tether hack, need to see if the framework edit sitll works on the update before I do it), but on the recent FoxFi update a couple months ago they don't use the home button trick anymore. Let FoxFi install the VPN which it briefly connects to when turning hotspot on. I am guessing that it emulates some Verizon provisioning server to let it work. It might still work with this update.
FoxFi works like a champ w/ the new update... thanks!

that's what I did and it worked just fine
I think the reason it keeps failing for me is that I installed a different SamsungCamera2.apk that allowed for a higher bit-rate. But I didn't backup the original file.
Does anyone have (and can post) the SamsungCamera2.apk (MJ7) file?

I'm probably going to end up ODIN back to MJ7 stock to take the update, since everything I've tried so far has not allowed the update to install.

I couldn't figure out a way either except odin. Took a little longer than if I could have updated normally, but now I am back to my previous configuration except now on the new radios.

Right underneath that status, there's a "Flash reset counter"How were you able to get Triangle Away to get rid of the "Custom" at the bootloader screen? I've got it installed and it shows Current Status as:
Code:Counter: 0 Binary: Official Device: SM-N900V System: Modified
I tried turning on the "System modified workaround", but that didn't change anything for me.
Just click it, accept the warning... etc. Then reboot.
Worked for me.3I pulled the update.zip and stuck it my Dropbox if anyone wants it.
