I have my Note 3 rooted and running Biggins final ROM and have the ZeroLemon battery...so I am happy right now and have no plans to upgrade. My sister had the Note 3 also but hers has always had an issue of rebooting sometimes, so she just got the Note 4 and gave me her old Note 3. So, now to my questions.

1. Her's has taken the OTA upgrade to Lollipop...is there anyway to root a Lollipop Note 3?

2. I would like to set this up for my son as an android tablet (so to speak) for him to play games on. So, can I use my same Google account on this phone to be able to install all my purchased apps and can I disable the cell phone part so it does not keep trying to activate the phone?

3. Can I remove Gmail or turn it off so my emails do not come in on this phone?
