So now i want to flash custom rom to unlock it. Anyway I prefer stock rom so that I can backup and restore after unlock it, So guys I wanna know what are the good custom roms to do that process. ?
Many thanks in advance

Hi All,
May you please advise how can I install a custom rom after I have already updated my Note 2 using OTA to 4.3.
I have not yet downloaded knox and enabled it.
I am basically confused how to root and install custom recovery ?
My phone is just 1 month old - If I root and install a custom rom and would like to install stock sometime in future to gain back official status and claim warranty, would I be able to do that ?
Many thanks !

Your warranty will get void if you plan to flash any custom ROM after downloading 4.3
To root/flash custom ROMs, do the needful over your current ROM, which I suppose might be 4.1.x

Thanks for the reply. Problem is, I have already upgraded to stock 4.3 using OTA update.
I am not very much liking the update because of missing note 3 features.
And now am trying to find out a way using which I can flash DN3 rom with the possibilities of rolling back to stock 4.3 to regain the warranty in worst case scenario.
Please help.
Thanks,

You need to follow Dr. Ketan's guide.
First in order to get N3 features on 4.3 Stock you need to flash Dr. Ketan's custom Rom for note 2 4.3 MI6
Install custom recovery by flashing one from odin.
Root your phone using supersu 1.65. Flash it (but no need, dr. Ketan's rom is prerooted)

Hello, I have rooted my stock Galaxy Note 3 T-Mobile 4.3 and now I heard that Samsung is rolling out soon KitKat update for the Note 3.
My questions is, do I have to unroot and return to stock then update then root the exact same way I did before ?
Does updating to KitKat require a different root method ?
Can I restore my apps and how ? I dont seem to know how to use Titanium backup and I even purchased it!
Please help me and thanks

I believe that you can update to Kitkat via Odin when the official update comes to T-mobile while rooted but you will lose root in the process. As far as rerooting, I believe you can flash recovery with Odin and then flash SuperSu in recovery to get rooted again, although, I think I read somewhere that it wasn't recommended anymore?. Not sure though. I used auto root method which I'm sure would still work just fine with kitkat. For restoring apps I would recommend the App backup and restore from the play store. Very easy to use.
Why dont you flash a 4.4 rom that's out there

I generally NEVER accept OTA updates until Devs have a chance to look at it and okay it, or see what others feedback is after accepting. Don't take for granted that you are rooted and have unlocked boot loader access. And until official KitKat is released its all hearsay as to when it'll come out.
hey guys,
i am a noob when comes to custom roms.so i need help here.
i want to install a custom rom on my rogers samsung s3 i747M unlocked.
i want to install a custom rom cus the battery backup sucks and i want to improve it.
so if someone could provide me a link to a good custom rom that will increase the battery backup as well as performance and the tutorial to install the rom,that will be really helpful.
and also i want to know if i can unlock the phone on custom rom once again.
thanks.
What ROM is currently on your phone?
Once carrier/sim unlocked, the phone will remain unlocked even after flashing ROMs.
Hello just a few quick questions about unrooting my M8.
Will I lose the sim unlock?
What rom will I need to flash, just the latest stock rom?
I ask this as I want to use android pay and as far as I can tell there is no work around for using the app with root, Tried several methods and got nowhere.
I'd happily keep my root if there was a workaround
Kind regards!
I don't know much about android pay as I don't have that service here in my country.
If you need to unroot or flash a stock ROM, it will not remove your sim unlock..
You need to install the stock ROM that is meant for your current firmware.

Yeah, Android Pay has not been active long in the UK at all.
Ok I will give it a try later on, Thanks for the help!
How did you root? Are you on a stock ROM now? If you are on stock you can use the full unroot option in the Superuser app. If you are on a custom ROM did you take nandroid before hand? If so you can restore that. If you don't you can get one from ckpv5 thread here (if your firmware is listed)

I've been using my tmobile sim in my tmobile note 3 for some time now.. it's rooted and has 6.0.1 rooted rom on it.. i gave the phone to my dad who has verizon.. I called Tmobile and they gladly sent me the unlock code but it's not working. Will it only work on a stock rom? Does it need to be a specific one? I'm prefer to leave Marshmallow .. I don't have a problem going back to stock but don't want to do it if it's not necessary. Any help here would be great before I wipe .. thanks!
Unlock codes must be entered using a stock Samsung dialler which means the phone needs to be flash with a stock ROM or a custom ROM based off a stock TW ROM.
You could create a nandroid backup of the existing ROM, flash stock ROM, enter unlock code, flash TWRP, and restore nandroid.
