Did you give the phone a chance to settle into v3.5 before you flashed v8.x? I needed to turn on WiFi and toggle airplane mode a few times before I got away from phone problems. It never got LTE with v3.5 but then the dirty flash of a v8.x worked for me. I am using it as my daily driver with no problems. I am wondering if you might have gone strait from v3.5 to v8.x without a reboot or two and some time...perhaps 20 or 30 min.
I didn't wait very long before I dirty flashed one of the newer builds.. Perhaps I'll try again and try your suggestions.. When you flashed to 3.5 did you get an LTE connection? I didn't get an LTE connection w/ 3.5 until I flashed 8.9..

Did anyone try flashing the new modem from the lollipop update? It may fix issues with cm12. Idk how to get the file or I'd try it out.
You can get the ob6 modem here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60178468&postcount=9684&nocache=1&z=7802493651397526

Under downloads click to show content and you'll see ob6 modem... I flashed it on kk but nk1 gave me better reception so I went back.. I tried temasek cm12.1 v10.4 rom and I couldn't get any lte or 3g data connection at all but that was with nk1 not ob6.. Try out ob6 on cm12 & report back if not I'll try later if I have some time.

This may be off topic but i am looking for a Verizon note 3 developer edition and wanted to know if the back has developer edition wrote on them. Or what is easier to see the difference between it and a regular retail version. Thanks

It is engraved under the battery, and the box is engraved too.

Why would you want a Dev edition? There's pretty much no support for it anymore and no one cares to even add it to cm12 device tree. Can't even get temasek builds on it without flashing a bunch of files so it doesn't bork it self, can't even clean flash temasek roms. I have it sitting on my desk and I been using my retail edition ever since it got the lollipop update.

Is there anyway you can help to unlock retail with your developers edition . There is a thread that's talking about it but need a DE to pull it off

I have 2 sm-N900v phones. When I put them into download mode on 1 I see it has Knox 0x0
The other doesn't even say Knox. I thought all sm-N900v had Knox. And it doesn't say developers device on inside phone
