Dont know if i got it all but that knox crap is deleted too along with tons of bloatware, I got 1.04 gb free, if someone wants to do a bloatware deleted post of all they deleted or froze then we can all compare and may find more to do away with.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] XzxBATTxzX:
1.) Debloat the HELL out of it

2.) Greenify it

3.) Titanium Backup

4.) Xposed 4 way reboot, remove scrolling cache and a few other things

5.) Aosp browser installer from play store

All are already done:)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] wy1d:
AGREED.

I'm hoping someone can do the Tethering Entitlement hack. I did some looking into and it should just be deleting the check under /res/values/array.xml in framework-res.apk. I already decompiled and recompiled with the fix but I can't figure out how to replace the framework without a boot loop.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Sudbury78:
Batt, can i ask a huge favor? Would you mind trying an edit to make the home screens continuously scroll as opposed to the elastic effect it has? I made a mod for the note 2 and this is the one successful solution and i will buy this phone... Thanks dude.

I have scrolling enabled but I am using nova launcher. Hadn't tried on the touch wiz version.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Sudbury78:

Same thing I did, except I froze s-finder in titanium BU instead of deleting it.

Then Nova Prime basically lets you map any button to do whatever you want.

Yup... someone theme it. Always a way... but no-one is doing themeing to release... yet...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] gerg004:
May I asked what you used? I assume a module for xposed.

Are you able to change the overall dpi of the home screen for instance? I don't know if that means changing the dpi from the launcher or if that is more in depth like editing the framework. If that's even possible right now I don't know.

Just saw where the Canadian Note 3 received an small OTA update this morning, so everyone may want to make sure they have the update apk frozen. One for ours may not be far behind.

boot up image problem

I'm using ES file explorer. It will not let me rename the files in /system/media.

Any thoughts??

When I look at the properties of the file, it says readable/yes writable/yes.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] gerg004:
You need to mount r/w to allow you to edit the filename.

Never uses ES file, Root Explorer has been my goto for years. Very easy to navigate.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] solo24:
Anyone know of a way to get a different phone app. I download rocketDialer but that uses the samsung phone app to make calls. I assume all the dialers on the play store do the same. Please correct me if i'm wrong and help me if there is an alternate method to the samsung phone app.

Does anyone know if we can flash a custom kernel now that we have root? Or should I wait until we can get CWM or TWRP? Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] NeoMagus:
The bootloader is still locked, good luck bricking your phone at the very least you'll have to wait till somebody makes a recovery for our phone and from what I understand if they have to use a safe strap you won't be flashing kernels

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Dubbsy:
No hate on the progress, but still need full recovery or the phone is useless to me. I really want one though. I've become a fan of Samsung's products and would really like to continue our project across more sammy lines.

The cash is in pocket for when recovery is achieved. Real recovery though, not one where I can't hard brick it if so desired. Not that I want to...but without full ownership, I might as well by an apple or windows phone.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Gil Smash:
No need for that kind of negativity. People are trying, people have already bricked phones to try and make it happen. Just give it time.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] ronaldheld:
The only way to edit is to get root explorer by speed software?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] gerg004:
Ah, hopefully my typo didn't confuse people. It's supposed to say "I never USED ES explorer", not "uses". Unfortunately I don't know the exact process or where to find the toggle on ES.

Either way you need to allow yourself read/write abilities while in the specific directory. And on Root Explorer, it shows up at the top as a little button "Mount r/o" then pressed "Mount r/w". I'm sure there's away using other file explores but I don't know the process, but I'm sure someone does. Or you can make your life simple and pickup Root Explorer :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] ronaldheld:
Thanks for the clarification. I was able to find the mount commands in ES file explorer. I held the root explorer button to get a new menu which includes the mount command. I now do not hear the bootup music any more.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Dubbsy:
You must have missed the "No hate on the progress" part of my post. I respect the exploit devs highly. Without them I wouldn't be able to do what I do. They are brilliant on a whole other level. I'd love to learn what they know but I have too much to learn about what I currently do as it is.

I really meant to post no negativity. I'm on unlimited data verizon, and won't be leaving because I tether everywhere so I can build on my team's build box and push updates to git and test builds.

I'd prefer to bring OctOS to all cariers of the note 3 but I need a full legit recovery in order for it to happen. So I was simply saying I'm super anxious for the progress going on because as soon as it does get recovery, that day I pick up mine and begin development.

So it's all good homie :good:

I'd really like to have root access, but the current method seems too invasive for my liking...

Does anyone know if any alternative root methods are being worked on or anything?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] gerg004:
There are no one-click methods at the moment if that's what you mean. I could see how it may look a little daunting to some, but if you follow EXACTLY what's in the OP (there are also very detailed videos) it will work.

Question - If you have a moment, can you see if your S Health opens, or does it Force close? Since installing the multiwindow manager app, S Health FC's. I read somewhere that this may be caused by the MW Manager app, but some say its other xposed modules. Just curious if you have the same issue.

Anyone have any luck getting Google TTS to work on apps other than Google Now and Google Maps?

Thanks for checking. I'll see if I can narrow it down.

Update - Cleared S Health App Data. I could agree to terms and enter information. After closing the app and then going back into the app, S Health would continue to FC.

Unchecked the module for MW Manager in xposed, rebooted and everything in S Health is working now. I think I prefer to use the Multi Window Manager over S Health. but wanted to throw this out there in case someone uses S Health.
