hey gurus. I obviously rooted my device but my battery is atrocious. I can't for the life of me figure out why its draining so badly. I was wondering out of sheer curiosity, if its possible that rooting made the battery work harder etc? My biggest question is this-- I ONLY rooted initially to add in continuous scrolling home screens and app/widget drawers. If I go back to stock, will the change I made in root explorer to make the screens rotate still be in effect or would it truly be stock? Thanks!!

I forgot to do the reboot thing and it's always best just to restart

From what the guys have mentioned, the other mirrors are giving the error, try with the MEGA link and u should be good.

I had a little worse battery life the first day after I rooted too, but it's back to awesome now on the 2nd day. Root does not make the battery work harder, but with root people can do things that might make it work harder...Try installing Better Battery Stats - it's free on XDA here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179809 This will let you find out what exactly is using your battery, if it's something that keeps being poor for you.

Unfortunately, the only method we have to return to stock (and most back-to-stock methods I've seen on any device) involves a data wipe so the changes you've made will be lost. I'd recommend sticking it out for a few days and if it's still bad install BBS.

It was actually a combination of Xposed Framework Modules, including Wanam Xposed.

I downloaded & installed the "Samsung Multiple Widgets [1.6]", "Maximize Widgets [1.0]" & "Wanam Xposed [2.1.0].

The only thing I used the Wanam Xposed for, in relation to the lock screen, was to "Enable quick PIN unlock" & "Hide carrier label". Everything else was accomplished via the other two modules.

Hope that helps!

Anyone having problems getting your PC to recognize your Note 3 as a storage device? I plug it in and Odin, adb, etc works fine but I can't get it to show up in my computer... Running Windows 8 w/ 3.0 USB...

Another quick question, can I factory reset the phone once I have SuperSU on it? I want to go through the whole proper first time re-setup and restore off the Play Store but I don't want to mess anything up. From past experience factory resets don't unroot but I haven't had a Samsung device in a while :)

--Edit--

Disregard the first question, figured it out. Still wondering about the second but I'm going to go for it and see what happens :D

You need to install the Xposed Framework. You probably installed the apk, but haven't installed the framework within the app. Here are the instructions:

Anyone else having issues with handwriting not converting to text in applications? The phone detects the pen and i can write to my hearts content. It never converts the handwriting to text though. Worked fine before root and doesn't work even with a factory reset.

works fine for me no issue!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] sublimaze:
Root should not affect battery life, but my Note 3 battery life is considerably less than my Note 2. I noticed this when I first got my N3, but I chalked it up to just messing with my new toy a lot. I installed BBB this morning, hopefully it will lend some insight into the matter.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] GaresTaylan:
Ugh. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hey guys. My buddy wants to know when rooted can we change the name of a directory. For example he wants to change the sd card for example. my external sd card directory is called "EXTSDCARD". I want to change it to "EXTSD"

Is this possible? Thx
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] pkd600:
Don't rename it. It's not just a folder name, its a file system mount point. Renaming it will almost certainly cause you problems.

Yes, this can be done, but like said, it's dangerous since several things that interact with it are looking for certain names

You probably could create a symbolic link with the name he wants to use. That would give him the name he Wants without breaking anything looking for the default name.

this might be stupid but whats the differnce between this root and the "Root and Install ClockworkMod Recovery" from Chainfire?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Gunthermic:
Becuase this phone doesnt have recovery mode yet. No unlocked Bootloader or SafeStrap which would be required before a recovery like twrp or cwm could be used.

This is awesome when I first decided I wanted a Note3 there was no root and no roms which almost made me not get it. I got it anyways because I have faith in our AWSOME devs and knew it would only be a short time before we started getting stuff from them.

Do you have it enabled in multi window? That could be your issue. It is not meant to run in multi window. This caused issues on my S4.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] chino0131:
I had this issue with the MultiWindow Manager app in the appstore (this is used along with xposed), as well as the multi window mod in wanam. Even NOT having the app in the multiwindow caused issues. The Pen window app that allows you to add any app you want also causes the same issue with S Health.

However, the Multi Window Manger in the app store just had an update that fixes the issue with S Health. Its a free app, but you can get the donate version as well. Search for Multi Window Manager (Phone).

Hope that helps.

Online Nandroid Backup from Play Store seems to work and it's counterpart Nandroid Manager also seems to work but I don't have the guts to attempt a restore. What do you guys think?

It seems the OTA will break root and prevent re-rooting with this exploit! N3 DE is now a must!

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] djeddieone:
Couple of question after doing this root method will there be a chance a update will get pushed to the phone on it's own and lose root?

I remember when I got my Galaxy S4 I had to literally turn off data while rooting because the phone kept trying to update on it's own and it wouldn't let me deny the update. another question has anyone tried the mobile hotspot does it let you tether for free?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] TH3 ST1G:
Once you gain root, download titanium backup and freeze SDM 1.0.

it will stop the phone from taking an ota update

Force close issues

Sorry if this has already commented on, but I looked through the thread and found nothing! Anyways, after rooting (and subsequent reset), km having issues with my email app force closing. I have a miscrosoft school account, if that makes any difference. I also have issues with tumblr and chrome sometimes freezing then closing. I tried to redo the root process, but I still have closing issues. Any ideas on a source and solution?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] thecolorsduke:
I've had issues with my email app as well. When I have a notification it force closes when I click on the notification or open the app itself. I used Helium to restore my apps once rooted. I haven't Odin again to check without restoring from Helium but when I do I'll report back
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] TH3 ST1G:
Did you use a backup of any kind?

I would be willing to bet that your force closes are related to using backups... I haven't had any issues with the stock email app... I cannot speak intelligently on Chrome as I do not use it...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] ahanecurren:
I have not done any kind of backup at all. I just rooted :( I will try restoring with the stock software and then re-root again.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Lightyear25:
I found that my camera lense is crooked, and my home button is loose and the S-Pen is hard to take out. I had allready rooted my phone, here is a little advice if you want to return your phone after rooting.

After using Wanam Xposed to remove the custom logo, simply use Odin to restore the Vega restor image. Follow root instructions again, but only leave the .sh file on the root directory, not the root files... this will retain the official status while not installing root.

Hope this helps.
