Galaxy note 3 indian users thread

[mahi198488]

Hi bro, Im also a mallu. Is it worth this upgrade? I have seen that 2.13 GB/ 2.66 GB ram usage in a video review, also some lags. May be Indian version will be much more better than Russian version. BTW , next roll out will be Thailand or Indian as the order of KK arrived.

i am using this version bro,
feeling same as KK (i was using Indian Version) except RAM usage ... deference in colour and spen only
some bugs there may be they will solve soon.
don't expect anything more in Indian ver. i am also waiting for that.

Can u elaborate what did u mean by 'some improvements needed'? i'm planing to flash this official Russion lollipop version. i could see a mixed response on this Firmware. currently i'm on Love89 ROM since 2 months n it's truly a fantastic one. i'm confused whether to update or wait for some more time for a classy Lollipop. of course i can try n flash back to KK if i don't want but would b gr8 if u can share ur experience with current Lollipop version.

Main issue is RAM usage
Always more than 80%

As of me Other things are working fine

I am trying to instal Lollipop on Note 3. Before doing this I found one post on XDA to backup the PIT file. Code for that is below. When I run this I am getting /system/bin/sh: su: not found error. How to fix it.

adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/My-N9005.pit bs=1 skip=17408 count=4244"
adb pull /sdcard/My-N9005.pit

I have installed Dr. Ketan Custom rom K14 (Kitkat)

can it be possible to change sound mod to normal without flashing whole rom again.

Just flash rom again using cwm

In multitool installation

Then skip rom installation

Then select replace stock sound in sound mod skip all other modes and finish it. It will work

It seems sammy launched the update on note 3 first so it can check and solve the bugs of the lollipop rom on note 4. While we are left with a dying bugged update & forced to upgrade our phone.

When my brother updated his S3 from ICS to JB the phone started to heat up more & even after a reboot the ram usage was 70-80%. So yeah i have little hope after reading the posts about this Russian rom.

Urgent

I'm kind of in a situation and need some help

I was on L17 ROM and decided to go to L19
When i booted to recovery, i ended up in stock recovery but i had installed TWRP when i flashed L17 from 4.4.2
Now when i rebooted(without any flashing) all apps gave a force close and when i tried flashing TWRP through odin, odin throws an error.
Now i can only go in download mode and when i reboot/go to recovery i get a warning: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please go to kies recovery.

Now i'm trying to download package for my mobile from sammobile but everytime download is unsuccessful(stops at 200/400 mb).. is there any other websites from where i can get the package successfully?

Please provide some solution

Could you tell me which one to download?
Have you installed package from these?

 

[cryostasis25]

Yes I have but I own a N9005 unit so I flashed the right/compatible image for my phone. You can actually see their are some for different note 3 versions there. Also dont download the one that has the words "deodex,root etc as those are roms that can be flashed using a cistom recovery. And I think all files there contain the tar file inside the zip.
