[Stock ROM][OK2 Lollipop 5.0 for Note 3] Odin Flashable stock firmware - N900P

[ManWithNoBrows]

This firmware is the unmodified Lollipop (Android 5.0) firmware downloaded through Samsung Kies. In case you need a copy of the firmware so that you don't have to keep downloading it through Kies, I'm providing you with a copy via the link below. It's odin flashable. Use the "AP" or "PDA" button to flash it onto your phone.

1. Download the stock Android 5.0 ROM (Lollipop) - Sprint N900P ONLY! - androidfilehost.com/?fid=24391638059060029
2. Download the official Samsung Kies. - samsung.com/in/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/
3. Download Odin 3 or later. - samsungodindownload.com/download/
4. Open Samsung Kies, and connect your phone. Wait for it to install the needed drivers.
5. Open Odin and make sure that it says it's "Added!"
6. Click the "AP" button and open the downloaded ROM.
7. Wait for it to finish verifying the checksum.
8. Make sure that "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" are the only boxes checked. (The default)
9. Click "Start" and wait for it to go. (Sometimes it gets stuck when it says "Setup Connection" and then you need to unplug your phone and restart Odin. - BE CAREFUL! Make sure it really is stuck or you'll brick your phone!)
10. [Optional] Flash TWRP (twrp.me) or CWM. (clockworkmod.com) TWRP is more free than CWM in the sense that the CWM ROM Manager has a payware version. If you're feeling generous towards those who spend countless hours each day for fun and to make your life a bit easier, throw them a few bucks. Both are freely available.

WARNING: Odin can brick your phone if you don't know what you're doing. If you break it, just buy another $800 device. I'm providing these instructions and the ROM without any warranty. You do with them what you feel is best.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! You helped me save what I thought was a dead phone with this!

Is there a mod to change the launcher to 5x4

Not sure if you've figured it out yet but you'll have to extract the .tar file from the zip, then Odin will be able to see it, the .tar file that is.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. This totally saved my bacon after a moron at the Sprint Store (and perhaps me for letting him look at it) replaced the SIM and then said that there was nothing they could do for the phone since it had been rooted.. now I have a way to reactivate the phone before switching back to a decent ROM.

This worked like a charm!

Anyone have a mirror?

I get a 404.

Also, will this upgrade my baseband from OC5 to OK2? I am having issues with CM12.1 nightly where I am not getting LTE and I was hoping upgrading the baseband could help. A bit of a noob here so any sort of suggestion would be helpful.

 

[atomifone]

can I keep it unlock?

Can I keep my KITKAT 4.4.2 NOTE 3 Sprint unlocked after updating this stock firmware? I'm newbie and English is not my mother tongue.

 

[crlxs]

Yes you can!

 

[misterkatanga]

Anyone? On CM as well and would looove to have an Odin flashable Stock ROM

I get a 404.

Or maybe point me (us) in the direction of finding something similar?

Anyone else getting invalid MD5 checks in ODIN with this one? Does anyone have an valid download link? Trying to switch back to Stock so I can pull the 6.0 OTA and fix my GPS issues.

Edit:Georgia Mirror is valid

So I used the process, flashed over to stock and had the phone boot up to the Updating 292 Apps then rebooted and now it's sitting on the yellow Sprint boot screen. Blue LED fading in and out with the screen going brighter for a second with a light vibrate at the same time. Has been like that for several minutes now and not sure if I should try to flash again or what. Anyone have any advice?

Same here. Been waiting about 10 minutes now watching the Sprint screen do the exact same thing.. Giving it another 10 or 15 minutes just to make sure then I guess I'll try again?

Update #1: Tried again and still stuck. I'm at a loss. Pissed at myself for not having a backup since my SD card went down. Anyone with any guidance would save me.

Update #2: Pulled battery. Rebooted into stock recovery and did a factory reset. Phone booted up. Crisis averted.

how did you access the georgia mirror?

 

[Moritzio]

404 error on file link.
Nevermind. Tried again and it downloaded.
