It has been a while since I flashed my Note 3. I have the note 4 now so I am trying to get this note 3 ready for my nephew. Right now I have a custom KK rom installed in the stock slot. Is it okay to flash this rom to the stock slot after doing a factory wipe and then wiping system, data and the caches?

Issues with obtaining root

I seem to be having an issue with obtaining root in order to install your ROM. I have a warranty exchange refurbished phone from AT&T that was already preloaded with NC2. I'm using the towel root file that you linked as well as the towel root file from the towel root site as well and root is not being granted. At least it doesn't appear to be anyway.. (there's no SuperUser app after running the TowelRoot application). I flashed the NC2 kernel that you referenced and that didn't help either.


I enabled the dev options and enabled USB debugging, allowed for sideloading (unknown sources in security) and I made sure that the phone has wi-fi access (I figured that towel root may need to download the super user apk itself..)


Do you have any suggestions for getting root? I'm asking here because I've ran this ROM before on my other Note 3 (the one that I have to send back) and I like it a lot. However that phone was on jellybean and I followed instructions on how to upgrade to a pre-release version of kitkat to keep the JB bootloader that was rooted. I then used safestrap to flash this ROM..


Thanks and keep up the good work :)

yes tr.apk does not install root SuperSu fully it just get you root without the superuser promt

you need to install SuperSU to get your SuperUser app first try the playstore (if you do not have custom recovery)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu

Installing Manually

You will have to follow the steps to get Safestrap installed because you need safestrap recovery to innstall app

Thanks for the clarification :D (It worked by the way and I'm loading busybox now as I type this)


Now - can I'm assuming that since this phone came with NC pre loaded that I can just proceed to booting into the Safestrap recovery and installing the ROM or do I need to ODIN the AP, BL, etc. files as well?

if your installing NC2 roms you do not need to install any odin firmware, Your about phone screen should show NC2

Download links dead?

The download links provided in your post do not seem to work. MediaFire shows it there but it does not download. I have downloaded other MediaFire downloads as a test and they work. Do you have a mirror?
