Try it yourself if you think it'll work, no one else will do it for you

Hes been sarcastic surely! Or been one of those people who live to wind people up

Guys are you serious ?? The second you flash note 4 rom you will get your phone bricked don't listen to the trolls here

The N4 firmware has unique system drivers that are incompatible with any other phone, it will not work on the N3. It probably won't even flash. I'm sure you could extract the apps and install some of the system apks, but please don't actually try to flash the whole firmware or you will likely brick your phone.

I love this

Thanks but I guess to late, I already tried and it didn't work. Reflashed original Note 3 firmware and it works.

The guy asked simple question, a simple answer would have sufficed! People come to ask questions and get help, isn't that the whole purpose of the forums? I'm guessing all you lot giving the guy a hard time were instantly android experts from day 1 hey..

Everything about the Note 4 OS is different. Even the image file extensions in the apps are different. You have a $300 paperweight most likely

Note 3. have you tried a different rom ?

try different rom or goto settings mobile networks and search for mobile networks.

goto settings more networks under connection tab then mobile networks then network operators and search for them. If that fails try differ rom and if that fails I am assuming you have somehow changed your modem. Find one for your country and flash using odin.
Also try Kies emergency firmware recovery using windows laptop or pc.

You can't flash live software onto a demo version due to having no radio on it, well it can be done but it's a right pain playing with the files, a couple of people have managed it but it's really not worth it in all honesty. You can (soft) brick very easily and it's not so easy to recover from it.

FYI - Demo units are different to a normal working device. It is NOT just a case of "search for ur software file and upgrade it easly do not worry"

[Q] Messed up my phone, return to stock?

Hello XDA.
I have a:
Galaxy S4 SGH-I337M (IT'S EITHER A BELL/ROGERS PHONE)
BASEBAND VERSION: I1337MVLUAMDJ
KERNAL VERSION: 3.4.0-1529758 [email protected]#1
BUILD NUMBER: K0T49H.1337MVLUFNE1
The problem is, I had rooted my phone long time ago and wanted to recently unroot and update to the latest KitKat version (I was on jellybean). It would not let be update because it said the device was modified or something of that sort. I tried to unroot by following a tutorial online and flashing with a stock rom.
I did exactly as it says but now my phone is totally messed up. My Wifi no longer works, the apps keep crashing and nothing is working like its suppose too. I do not know what to do to fix this. How do I return my phone back to factory settings as if it is brand new? I have tried flashing stock roms 3 times new (3 different ones using ODIN) and nothing seems to work. I have tried samsung kies and it is still doing the same thing!
Please help.

You have to register but it's free. You'll download a zip. Use 7-zip to extract a .tar.md5 file. Use that in Odin

The websites downloads are very slow. I am currently downloading it and will attempt to flash it. The problem is, I believe I have already tried this and might have somehow messed something else up such as the kernel or something.
Do you know if this could be the case?

No, it would not be the case. Odin flashes the entire firmware, kernel and all. Sammobile is an official site for the firmware so if it doesn't work you might have a hardware issue. But wait for the download.

I'll definitely try flashing this one. Any specific instructions with ODIN for this? (I might be doing something wrong). Also, I do not believe its a hardware issue as it was fine before I attempted to unroot it today and make it factory default stock rom

I have flashed the official one from that website and same problem. My WIFI does not work and there are random glitches like the phone being slow and etc. I don't understand what I could have done to cause this and what could possibly be done to fix it.
I think the modem may be an issue. Can someone please confirm?

So when you try to slide to turn on Wi-Fi it just pops back to off? The other guy had an i337 which is different than yours. What worked for his isn't going to work for you
What firmware version did you flash in Odin?

When I try to slide the WIFI tab, it slides back to off by itself. My phone is i337M and mine and his have a similar issue but different phone type. I flashed 4.4.2 with Odin.
I honestly believe that it's a problem with the kernel/modem. Do you know of a way to change EVERYTHING back to factory settings?
Odin flashes everything back to stock, like new. Try the mk6 version of the firmware.
Edit, what version of Odin ate you using?

Not sure what else to tell you. If Odin isn't working you may have a hardware issue. Odin should return engaguing to like new. The only thing I can think of is you have an issue with the emmc memory, which isn't good.

Use Odin to update the firmware. It will wipe the device so make sure you backup everything first. But you are on 4.2.2 so you can really flash roms. With the newer firmware you won't be able to if that's important to you

No i dont have a verizon account i bought the phone from third hand...
But with the OB6 manage to use the method of the 2 tar files to flash and succesfully came with everything, the problem is the next one, on the boot first screen says CUSTOM with the unlock lock draw or symbol, but i cant find the superuser app anywhere....
No when I reboot the phone, takes to long and says system something then I say ok and shutsdown, the only way to enter to android is recovery and delete cache...
Any way to fix this, and altought it says iu was installing the app, i cant find it, should I install the SUPERUSER app?

Possible Marshmallow port

I have installed the port by KeTuRr74 for the n910f on my Verizon Note 4 n910v and it boots fine and everything appears to work except of course the Verizon network. I have been unsuccessful in getting the rom to recognize the sim. Since it is a port of the 910g to the 910f, I assume this would be possible. Can anyone point me to a guide?

It's not that the datafix has to be updated. The datafix is only made for Note 5 5.1.1 port ROMs, not Note 4 5.1.1 ROMs.

just change the dpi for data fix .. you ask me why .. because most 5.1.1 F rom supported on my note 4 but problem is the notification center and dial pad area is cut that thing means I can see wifi icon but not Wi-Fi written {Vague (I know)} just change dpi to 640 i have 2 roms which will work successfully after that !!
In that mean time I will change dpi after installing rom

I was able to get my n910v data working by applying the data fix by louforgiveno. However I am facing another issue on this 6.01 port. When I long press the power button, the system reboots instead of popping up the selection menu (power down, reboot, etc). Any idea how to fix it?
