So last night, I guess my phone was trying to download and install security update from samsung and failed. My battery died later cause it was low and after I recharged my phone and turned it on, my phone literally took a crap. Everything crashes even settings. Cant send a text out. Bluetooth wont turn on etc.

Now after I back up my photos somehow, what would be the best way to restore to keep root and CWM?

Settings-restore?
dl note 3 os then flash with CWM?

Thanks guys.

I did have a similar issue. My quick fix wasn't so quick though. I completely formatted, flashed stock ROM back, chainfire root, CWM to bootloader then you're free. I got my files from galaxynote3root.com

So its weird, after I let the phone stay on for like an hour, everything seems to load properly and nothing crashes. Planning on reformatting, but I am kind of worried on why this happened. I am on stock rom.

It's possible during your update critical files were missed do to power loss and were replaced on reboot? I unfortunately was not able to get passed the bootscreen to recovery or the system itself. So i was forced to divert back to stock firmware and start from the beggining. So if you run into any more issues you might start there. If you kept root all should be well i believe. :good:

Well my phone didn't die when it was updating, the update failed well before that. I was just saying that after it did die and I turned it on, everything went downhill from there. Really weird

I have a backup of all my pictures on google + they give 15GO i have all my video and importants stuf backed up. When I have a problem with the phone hard reset and reinstall the rom. I use philz recovery is working like a charm to me
