I installed the Android L leak on my SM-N9005 32GB yesterday. Using Odin, I loaded all the required files except the .PIT and B/L files and also did not check the re-partition box.
My issues so far are:
1. Wifi passwords are not remembered when re-connected to wifi. As my phone is not rooted I am not able to edit the buildprop file as suggested in earlier posts.
2. Although Gear Manager works with my Gear 2 the Unified Daemon (Eur) has given a stopped error message, therefore the weather app on the gear 2 is not working. All other notifications that I have selected seem to be working on the watch.
3. After running the new OS for 24 hours, I had encountered two reboots of my phone...not sure what has caused this.

Thank you O/P for the leak it really is a good improvement on kitkat 4.4.2 which I was running prior to the update

You have only one solution to fix the wifi.
Root and edit build.prop
O flash wifi fix zip file!
Wen you root you will flag knox and lose warranty! !!

Thank you Jemis a "catch 22" situation. I think I will have to live with entering a wifi password when connecting.

As indicated in my post I did not load the .Pit file or B/L when upgrading. To rollback to kitkat 4.4.2 would I still use odin. I have already downloaded my mobile provider firmware (N9005XXUENC2_N9005VFGENA4_N9005XXUENC2_HOME.tar.md5) This is only one file. Would it be better to use Kies to rollback or Odin If Odin, what box needs to be checked and where must this file be loaded in odin?

You must fullwipe before and after the first installation and all will work perfectly.Only the gear'weather doesn't work

 

[pfigo]

For me no problems...no WiFi problems.
I used pit file, BT file, tick re-partition and bootloader and all the other file.
Since December 24th without any problems and with great batery performance.

Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app

This might be a dumb question, but are you able to flash this on the Retail Verizon version? I don't want to brick my phone if this isn't going to work on the retail version.

 

[tahrang]

Can this guide be used for SM-N900A?

 

[jemis1983]

Yes it's for all chipset qualcomm on note 3!!!

So a full wipe after installing will fix wifi bug/restarts and battery issues?
Or do I need to wipe, reflash and wipe again?
Is the consensus not to flash pit and bootloader?
Has anyone tried disabling Google backup to fix wifi issue because that's the big problem for me atm.

Theirs a massive battery issue here. Goes down to 90% within 3 minutes. Using the T -Mobile Variant

Yeah i think there's a right way and a wrong way to flash this.
I did it without pit (because I'm not rooted) or bootloader with no wipes and I've got the restarts and wifi and battery issues.

E: perhaps someone who has just upgraded can restart their phone after connecting to wifi and test if they have the bug and if they do, try doing a full wipe and see if it fixes it? I don't want to wipe since I just spent a day setting everything up :/

E2: just noticed I have video playback problems too. Gfycat and YouTube.

Did the fullwipe before as well as after installation...wifi still not retaining passwords. Perhaps the reason for this problem is that I did not use the .pit file and b/l that came with the leak, neither did I re-partition when using Odin to update Android L. I have a SM-N9005 32 GB phone

 

[jemis1983]

Do you successfully root your phone????

 

[SoRiNuS]

I´ve used SUpersu Beta 2.42 and i´ve succesfully rooted my note 3 on lollipop.

Tell me what Base Band you have after the flash!!it's impossible that the wifi still doesn't work
And it's very import to instal all together by Odin 3.0.9 if you want that the Lollipop works perfectly.

Do you flash it with costume recovery????

 

[SoRiNuS]

Is there any way to flash it??

The baseband version is N9005XXEG8NL8, Bootloader version is of my provider.

My upgrade steps were as followed.

1. Downlaoded Odin 3.0.9 plus leaked Android L
2. My previous rom was the stock 4.4.2 which was rooted.
3. Used Kies to backup all files and data.
4. Saved my .pit file
5. Did a factory reset before upgrade
6. In odin did not check re-partition box and also did not load the .pit file or Bootloader which was included with the leak.
7. On completion did another factory reset
8. Wifi works but not remembering passwords

As posted earlier perhaps my problem is that I did not use all the leaked files to update
