It's a region thing, Polish version works fine on UK devices, flash it via Odin, then you can bang on your custom recovery and install Xnote 9

Ok thanks mate, so I donwload the polish kitkat version you gave me, then i get the md5 from it, flash with odin then get goo manager and install twrp recovery, then go to the xnote 9 page and download there version and wipe data (nothing else) then flash the x note rom through twrp recovery?

does that sound right? I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your help and once im all sorted I would like to give you a small donation for your troubles sir

I am just so scared that i will brick my phone and i have never had an android phone before and its all a bit weird lol

Thanks mate, i will give this all a go tonight when my son goes to bed

Don't use goo for twrp, grab the KK compatible version from the twrp thread (the file is hlte.recovery.img or similar it doesn't have a numbering system on it yet, I use it also) - flash it on to your device via Odin pda slot again, takes about 10 seconds or so, download your custom rom then flash.

If you do manage to brick it'll only be a soft brick in all honesty and it'll take minutes to get out of it. - re flashing stock generally fixes all so keep that stock kk rom for the future.

You'll be alright, just notify me by using @radicalisto or if I'm not around one of the other guys here will jump in and help you

Use THIS custom recovery it's TWRP for Kitkat, no need to root if you're installing a custom ROM

@radicalisto hiya mate its me again. Thanks for all your help with this thread all that time ago! I have been using xnote 10 ever since and was wanting to put xnote 18 on now but i am a little unsure how to go about it? I remeber i have the polish kit kat version so do i download xnote 18 then just flash over the top? Thanks again mate i really appreciate your time

Hi @m6ceb - it's been a while since I've had an Note 3, so unsure if you need to upgrade your boot loader again in order to flash a more recent version. If you do (have a quick read around to be 100%) just upgrade your firmware via Odin like previously, then flash your recovery and then xnote again.

If you don't need to upgrade it, flash over it and do the usual wipes format /system wipe data and cache etc. And you should be good to go

Thanks very much. I just flashed over the top and works a treat

cheers mate
