Holly mollyyyyy... I know this NOT a placebo. This AMH1 release feels and IS faster. I can swear the apps at least feels that open up faster.

In general the phone feels noticeably smoother.

Also my score in 3DMark went from 5147 to 5506. Antutu from 19500 to 20500.

And no, it felt faster all day long. I just run the synthetic test like 15min ago. So I didn't had that in mind to cause a placebo effect or anything.

Good ROM. :good:

You can find below the updated scores and comparison in Antutu vs Sony Xperia Z and the Note 2.

My Samsung Mega Journey
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] ValenteL:
AMH1 Rom is from Nordic Countries. The CSC code NEE (I9205NEEAMH1) means DK, FI, IS, NO, SE Countries.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] omniphil:
Ok, and it is a newer version that the other countries don't get?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cheezusweezel:
XXUAMH2 is out, Kangburra, your time ... :cool:

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
Haha, typical, I'm downloading ... :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] ValenteL:
Remember that Kangburra is from Australia and work already 9 hours before, when we are still sleeping.:good::D:laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Warnahly:
hello mate, thanks for the next V

but are going to make a full deodexed version ?

i got CRT OFF working but there is still a bug need to be fixed
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
I will do but not the first one as I will need to test it again before I release it.

V141 uploading now :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cheezusweezel:
Great. And no hurry, also aussies need some sleep, time to time ... :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] walda:
MF8 and MF9 has a much higher changelist.

mh2 has the same as mh1.

Or am i misunderstandig something in general?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cheezusweezel:
The changelist-number is only a number, nothing more. But g comes after f and h after g, so mh1 and mh2 are the newest firmwares worldwide.

Also H stands for august, 8th letter in the alphabet.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
MH2 in post #1, only depositfiles for now, will do the mirror over night. De-odex also ready to upload so will take a while.

This seems to have a better 3G signal, don't get 4G at home so can't test.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] walda:
Yes, i know the Month Character Logic...

In Wanam's S3,S4 threads it was always said that a FW is not newer when the changelist is the same... :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
A true flash-a-holic will take a higher changelist or a higher letter, which ever came out last. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
Kangburra I can provide multi-hosters sites for help our fellow members to donwload it. I will take me like 25-30minutes to upload the whole ROM.

Let me know if its alright with you. I think many Mega owners would love some mirrors.. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
It is uploading to Androidfilehost now, but if you want to do that it is fine with me :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
I will do it just to help. Sometimes cannot download from some place or even more importanly, you might be too busy or have to do something.

We know you got a life also. Thanks Kangburra for the ROM again. As I said in a previous comment, the AMH1 is amazing. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] omniphil:
Has anyone had any success loading the MG5 modem in post #2?

I am using odin and using the Phone section. It keeps saying the md5 is corrupted...
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] rodosman:
How I can make dlna to work?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
Hmm. I restored the stock Video Player(for mirroring purposes) and it shows my videos but when I try to play anything its freezes for a couple seconds and then forces closes.

Did I miss something here? I restored both SecPlayer deoxed and odex file and I also restored both files of SecPlayerList. Some help please.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] dchsub:
I have had.

Try a few options.

Remove md5 in the file extension and flash.

Unpack tar to pull out raw modem file and flash. I think it is how I get it flashed.

Try a newer odin exec.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
A small request if I may please.

The ONLY thing I miss from this great ROM so far is my FM Radio and stock Video Player which support screen mirroring.

I have include the apk's and odex versions of FM Radio and Video List and Video Player in the attachment.

It would be great if someone could make them work with this rom. Either flashable or I pushing them straight to System->Apps and fix the permissions no problem.

Thanks. :good:

P.S: I have downloaded the stock AMH1 Rom for i9200 if anyone needs it or needs any APK's or anything from it.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] omniphil:
Thanks! I removed the .md5 extension and it worked just fine in Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Unreal988:
i move apk and odex file to system/app but there isn t any app on drawer... why?

inviato dal mio 6.3
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] ValenteL:
May be You must install it. Touch on .apk choice install option.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
If you are talking about the ones I posted in the attachment, then those DO NOT WORK with this rom.

So please DO NOT download the attachment in my previous post.

Those were uploaded for Kangburra or SOMEONE WHOCAN MAKE THEM WORK with this ROM. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
Timer problem, please disregard. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kipue:
Hi Kangbura,

I think I may have noticed a very small error in your ROM:

After locking the screen, it seems like when I touch the screen I still get a short vibration from time to time?

I haven't noticed this on stock.

It is really not an issue, just wondering if that would mean that the device stay awake :)

Have you noticed this? Maybe a feature?

Thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Pariki:
===============

It is for sure the messages. Turn off vibration in SMS settings and check it. It worked for me. If not it could be for some other application you installed.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kipue:
Oh, so that's a feature, some kind of notification thing then?

Got it, and true it happens when a SMS is awaiting.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
It's called Smart Alert in Settings -> Motion. Vibrate when device is picked up when there is an outstanding notification.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kipue:
Cool, ty.

I thought I did turn off all those features, and also didn't notice it in my stock ROM, which weren't so up to date.

So either I missed it or it's been implemented recently by Sammy :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
Stuck at boot after I flashed it! Also after I flashed it in CWM, just before I press to reboot it asked me if I wanna Root my device! I was already rooted when I entered the CWM.

Also Clearing cache/dalvik, fixing permissions did nothing. Stil stuck at boot.

I will do a dirty re-flash of the AMH1 Rom and see how it goes..

True indeed. This is one motion setting I find useful.

I never enable motion settings and had the turned off in my GNote the entire time I owned it.

But on the Mega is a different story. :p
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] zcink:
Really great job on this rom. Love it all stripped down. Thanks so much!

Only thing I added back in was Live Wallpaper Picker.

Using your deodexed version.

I do have a question -- maybe two.

I deleted the entire Pitpat folder from system/vendor directory as this seems to be useful only for facial recognition.

My question is, will this cause any other problems?

Second question is how do deactivate the front facing camera?

Please Advise and thanks again for this rom.

Sent from my Galaxy Mega GT-I9205 using my Commodore 64
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
You won't be able to use face unlock. I can't help with the camera that would kill smart stay which I love :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] zcink:
Thanks. I don't think face unlock is in this rom anyway (unless you put it back in)

Something unsettling about my phone always looking at my face to see if I'm looking at the screen. Maybe its just me.

I have no use for front camera what-so-ever. Just wanna shut it off.

Sent from my Galaxy MegaGT-I9205 using Smoke Signals
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
Haha, I know what you mean, I found it awful as well, like I was trying to scare it into unlocking.

I will have a look at the camera, not sure if it is safe to disable it as it may trigger a hardware test, which is also disabled.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
Kangburra any noticeable improvements of AMH2 compared to the AMH1?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
No, possibly better modem signal but marginal if not placebo. Battery life is better but this could be to better signal. So it is not going to be the same for everyone.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
Thanks. Also you make a good reminder of the topic that for each or for most users atleast the experience will be a bit different.

Different setups, different apps, different settings, different signal quality/reception etc etc.

Its rarely a Rom's fault when something's wrong as its been said many times from many Devs. Just putting it out there. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Troute:
I've installed AMH2 (thanks for that) and I want to get NFC working. I've downloaded the 4 NFC files from the removed list in the first post, copied to device and tried installing, I have unkown sources checked but the install fails (app not installed). Am I missing something? being daft?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
You need to copy them to /system/app and then reboot, they won't install as they need to be in the system not the data directory. You may also need to set permissions but try just copying first.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Troute:
You're a star, thanks for the quick response. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] rodosman:
i try to tv connect with mhl cable but nothing.

only one time i connect.

do you have any idia what to do ?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] zcink:
Update:

I figured out what to about disabling the front facing camera.

It involved only a jeweler's phillips screwdriver, a guitar pick, tweezers and a tiny piece of electrical tape.

Tin snips, super glue, a hammer, a razor blade and a paypal account.

This rom of yours is super! Been taking everything I can throw at it.

Pretty sure now that system/vendor/pitpatt is not needed for anything else.

Here is a tutorial on how to disassemble the Galaxy Mega 6.3

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Warnahly:
[MENTION=598986]Kangburra[/MENTION] can u please procide an deodexed files needed for multi window
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
You can use the ones from MH1. No change to multiwindow.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Warnahly:
Just copy them without the .odex ?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
No use the de-odex ROM and the files within it.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
Can someone with a i9200 confirm that stock Video Player works with either MH1 or MH2?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Warnahly:
Didnt
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
So it doesnt work on either i9200 and i9205 versions and Kangburra's roms AMH1/AMH2?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Ghost277:
Hi all friends ... I wanted to ask why the multiwindows was removed from the rom? I use enough and if it were possible I would like to continue using it ...

EDIT:

I would like to point out that I have on the rom version deodex

Inviato dal mio GT-I9205
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
You would need to flash the odex version and then restore the multi windows files. The is no option to restore for the de-odex rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Pariki:
Hi Kangburra,

Great ROM from you...but I used it for 2 days only and switched to Stock ROM. Because I could not install or add or flash some of the applications that were in the Stock ROM which I needed. I followed all steps that are in this forum but failed to. I would suggest you to add some of the Stock applications that are listed in this forum that users found difficulty installing. It would be a great ROM if this is done..Thanks again..

:fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cheezusweezel:
Please stay "clean". Stock-Samsung-apps, brrr...^^
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
If you want a stock Rom then flash one, the whole point of removing all these apps is to allow people to install what they want. If you flash a stock Rom and root it you can remove as much or as little as you like.

I agree, there are many ways to get the perfect Rom, but I hope mine is just the base. I can't hope to please everyone.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] myabc:
hello to all. I would like to put the nfc, gmail, the file manager series, the system recognizes the voice dictation and web searches, I would say in that folder should be placed exactly and what are the files that I do not understand crabs?

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
Post #1 has a full stock rom pre-rooted, flash that and then manually remove what you don't need. Back up before you start and before you make any drastic changes. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
You may also be better installing the whole Rom and removing apks that are not needed.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Unreal988:
thanks but not function...

all of another app running well...

video player not... not appear in drawer... :(

now i use mxplayer but video player stock is better for me..

Hey Kangburra, i just want to give a "thanks" in advance. I've been trying to decide which phone to go for, i was concerned that no one was doing any work on mega development because its kind of a niche product, but seeing that you are working diligently on your rom, and its better than roms for other phones as it's so streamlined with the crap removed, you've helped me make up my mind. Please don't ever abadon this room (well, when the mega 2 comes out maybe), as I will stay a dedicated subscriber of your rom as soon as I purchase the mega now. Thanks mate.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
Thanks for that, I am happy with the mega, so yes until mega 2 we will keep going :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] darkjeje:
Just a quick feedback, installed this rom 3 days ago and it has been a joy to use so far.

zero bug, fast, light, great battery life ! this rom + Nova launcher = perfect match :)

Thanks for sharing it !

Sorry, it work only to install apk on /data/app. For appl's that need to be installed on /system/app not work.

In this case You can try install it and after, move from /data/app to /system/app. Reboot and I think will be alright.

Uninstall the drivers, reboot, re-install the drivers and connect the phone.

Do you plan also themes for your ROM?

Thus optical improvement;)

Hello,

When you install a ROM with another CSC code than the regular one for your country:

1- Is it necessary to change the CSC code back to your regular country one ?

2- If yes from where do you the the CSC package for your country ?

Thanks. Michel
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
CSC only matters for updates, which you will not get as this is rooted, so no, it doesn't matter.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Tilagoon:
Ok, thanks a lot :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] ValenteL:
Hi Michel, bon jour

From my first Rom XXUAMEA Portugal (TPH) I have, from system/ the csc TPH + my language pt_PT of /sipdb and /VODB.

When I install a new Rom and after root it (if is not rooted already), I make this:

1- First install only choice the Portuguese and not configure anything. Only to install te apk Root Explorer.

Whit RO I copy my TPH to system/csc by default. I include TPH on system/SW_Configuration.xml file and include the pt_PT on /sipdb and /VODB files. Now to validate the TPH I must make this:

2- On Recovery full wipe data + cache + dalvik. Reboot. Now I begin in Portuguese by default, this mean my TPH is alright. And configure all Rom.

To confirm if my TPH is good I type getprop on Shell Terminal Emulator from Play Store. I have one line= [ril.product_code]: [GT-I9205ZKATPH]. This parameter is the more difficult to update, when we have our csc there all csc is alright. (ZKA is a personal code from phone).

I made many times this whit success in another devices also.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Tilagoon:
Hi Valente,

Thanks for the tuto :cool:

It's not so simple as I thought it was.

Any way I'll still wait a little bit before trying the different ROM's which are coming in the forum :laugh:

hey, thanks for this ROM. Am I the only one having problems with wifi? it keeps trying to acquire IP address and never does. Wifi tethering/hotspot seems to work, though.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
I have this problem at work, set up a static IP address, mask, gateway and DNS.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] nickrussel:
Thanks. Been so long since I had to go manual IP settings that I didn't even think of that. Wonder if I'm going to have to do this for every network, as I do for the all of those currently in range :( any idea what it is and if it can be fixed? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
I wouldn't think so, I have connected to others without issue just stuck with that one, and I can't reset the modem either.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
There is a fix. Turn off WIFI.

system/etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-run-hooks needs to have permissions fixed to "execute" by "user" "group" and "others" by using your favorite file explorer

Then turn on WIFI and it works.

New ROM is being tested now :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] ValenteL:
Rom XXUAMG3

My WiFi test whit Speedtest.net --> 87,5 Mb/s on my net from 100 Mb/s and WiFi of 5 Ghz.

Hi [MENTION=598986]Kangburra[/MENTION]

In Australia, You have the option Shortcuts to validate it on LockScreen, whit Your CSC?

I know a member whit a Note 3 and csc XSA don't have this option.

Like on Germany whit DBT and KOR. Patents problems I think. We must invalidate DBT to arrive have it.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cyberbit:
any help to put videoplayer working

Any ideia how to put video player working
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
No, they lock them for some reason, you have edit the CSC files or flash another country's Rom. I edited the XSA files and stuck them in lots of my Roms but now I just let the CSC stay as whatever it comes with.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] ValenteL:
Thank You

When I install a Rom DBT from Germany I make this whit root:

On system/csc rename customer.xml to customer.xml.bak. Reboot and I have the Shortcuts Validation. I validate the 5 shortcuts on Lockscreen well.

After, rename customer.xml to original name. Reboot. No more Shortcuts Validation, but on Lockscreen the 5 shortcuts continue working very well.

Made that some times on N8000 and N7100 and work.

Try this whit XSA
