[Galaxy Note 3 General] Mel0nators:
Thanks a lot. I imagine I should just make a back up in TWRP, factory reset, flash the recovery, then flash the CM12.1 Base? Is that correct?

I've been trying my best to wrap my head around all of this :)

---------- Post added at 03:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:59 AM ----------

Just as an update.. I flashed 11.0 Base, and it couldn't recognize the SIM card in my device (with a Canadian or my Docomo one.) The ROM also doesn't show any IMEI code, or info about my modem.

The same thing actually happened when I flashed the CM rom from the link that I posted earlier.

Any advice?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
You should ask the makers of the rom. This thread is mostly for stock firmwares.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Mel0nators:
Sorry to spam your thread, but version "cm-12-20150316-UNOFFICIAL-hltedcm.zip" from that page worked. Thanks soooo much to both of you!!

If anyone reads this in the future, I was able to flash the above version to make my SC-01F work perfectly in Canada (stock rom was very slow with no MMS support.) Feel free to quote me if anyone needs advice on how to do it from a laymen :)

samsung japan is too slow to upgrade android 5.0 for galaxy not 3 au and docomo. I think this is last time i buy galaxy phone from Japan.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
It's the carriers' fault. They have to make their bloatware work.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] foozoo:
is this rom for note 3 or note 4?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] fenohavana:
It's for note 3. I use it for my scl22 but it can also be used for note 3 docomo.

Guys anyone has idea why could recorded messages stop playing? Device is SC-01F. Messages are recorded to .amr extension and played ok but now I get error (like "sorry can't play this file"). All built-in media players available, they just don't work. Seems there must be some system file which is needed to make default players read amr...

Some system apps are uninstaled on my device but I have backup. Just wonder which one I need. If anyone knows.

P.S. Yes I'm aware bout 3rd party players but I want to try to fix this issue

Thanks!

I installed DarkLord v2.2 last night and i was so excited with it. Everything new i can't stop playing it last night.

I liked Samsung Note Keyboard in DarkLord ROM is available for almost languages. It's fast and beautiful too.

So, i would like to confirmed that DarkLord is the best ROM for SC-01F right now (Maybe for All Note3 too).

Thank you for your kindly suggestion.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] DeadCode1:
Can i ask you something.?

Are you using your Note 3 in Japan.? And can you get Docomo Emails.? And did you register your phone to docomo network without problems.?

Because for au kddi users to get everything (like "ezweb" mail)working for Note 3 (SCL22) we have to register our phone to au kddi network. For custom ROM we can't register our phones to there net work. (Because they check phone model, CSC, And android version )
[Galaxy Note 3 General] padetc:
If you use it in Japan, I think you should use official firmware to get the best result.

In my case, I bought SC-01F from japan and now i'm back to my country already so i don't need any Japanese stuff any more.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] DeadCode1:
Yeah i though so. Because i've try many custom ROMS and most of them works but can't get register to japanese networks. Thank you for the reply.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
We have an OTA update for the Docomo Note 3.

It's not Jellybean, I strongly doubt we will get that. But this may be an interim update. So make sure to update if you can.

I don't have a computer right now, so I can't put up a mirror. But feel free to use the OTA update if you like (if your rom is unmodified/non-rooted).

Hi everyone. I've been using AryaMod 5.4 and now 6.0 for quite some weeks now and it works great.

I had to change the kernel re root, install TWRP and the kernel to get it working after installing AryaMod but its been fine since.

There is a version 7 released a few days ago. A few bugs are about to be fixed in v7.1 shortly and I'll upgrade to that hopefully with equal success as with the excellent version 6.

Its a strongly recommended ROM for the Docomo Note 3 :)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] vorks:
Hi padetc,

quick qns, if i use this ROM, did u have to unlock the phone again?

when i bought this phone (in vietnam) the store had to unblock 3g for me and i could then use roaming and other sim cards when i went back to singapore. i want to use the new rom as i find the japanese version of the software limited. i am worried if i flash this new rom, then i run into issues with the phone being lock. do let me know if any such issues.

also - how is the battery life? i find the battery life currently very bad.

thanks for your help!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] padetc:
I didn't unlock phone again. I had asked Docomo customer service before while i was stay in Japan that Unlocked phone cannot be undone or lock again. It's permanently unlock.

Before i installed Darklord, i found a problem about difficult to lock mobile signal in Thailand but after i installed it, The problem is gone. I really happy about that.

I think battery usage of Darklord rom is a little bit better than original but sorry, i didn't remember it exactly.

At the present, i still be happy to use Darklord 2.2 Rom without any problem and waiting for updating of Darklord too.

Guys,

Is there any difference between Cyanogen and Darklord roms?

I'd like to install custom rom on my SC-01F (KitKat), never used custom rom before, so thought I'd better go with Cyan, if there is any.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] michael_hamada:
Cyanogen Mod ROMs are mostly plain,simple and clean ROMs.

On the other hand, Darklord Rom is the custom ROM based on the Samsung genuine ROM, so that it has some functions Samsung-specific like S-pen, TouchWiz and so on...

So, if you want some features Samsung-specific, go to Darklord, but if you want more free RAM and/or more free storage space CM is for you.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
michael_hamada,

Thanks!

In such case Cyan would be more preferred. I don't use any S-Pen features, only S-Pen itself. Not mentioning Touchwiz :)

Bad thing is that search in this thread by "Cyan" word shows only my post, and your reply... :(

Is there any Cyan rom for SC-01F? Anyone tried to install?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] michael_hamada:
Cyanogen Mod is the official name of CM Rom.

If you can read Japanese, see the page below.

http://site.kbc-brick.org/samsung/sc-01f-galaxy-noteru-dcm

But I have to mention that you need some knowledge, courage and resignation for switching to custom ROM! :p

Anyway, I'm using CM12.1 with SC-01F and mostly satisfying.

Best regaerds
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Those hidden settings have been physically removed in the docomo roms, yo won't be able to do,the unlock tricks and things that you find online.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
michael_hamada,

Thanks again!

I used to flash firmwares (not custom though). So I know how to use Odin, hope it'll be enough..

I believe what I do is flash the cm-12.1-20150802-AOJP-NIGHTLY-hltedcm.zip using Odin, right? I'm only wondering how come it's 257mb only. That's the firmware?? Docomo's firmware is over 1gb :)

Also, I couldn't find the info about what android version of that 12.1 cyan. Is it KitKat, or Lollipop? I'd like to flash the latest KitKat. Can I see this info somewhere? It doesn't seem to be written anywhere, even in txt logs. Though I think it should be stated clearly...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] michael_hamada:
Nope, you have to flash custom recovery (I recommend TWRP) via ODIN. And flash ROM and Google apps(a.k.a. GAPS) by custom recovery.

See the blog below...

http://b00111.blogspot.jp/2015/07/root-rom-rom-galaxy-note3-sc-01f.html?m=1

And CM12.1 and 12 are based on Lolipop, CM 11 is based on Kitkat.

Again, You will loose nfc(felica) and One-seg TV function when you flash custom ROM and VOID WARRANTY.

I don't meant to scare you, but there IS a risk of turning your device to a brick.

Even though I've flashed custom ROMs so many times to so many devices, I've never made them bricked, You have to go through on your own risk;)

-----Added----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At least, if the Download Mode still works fine, the device has a chance to revive while

something went wrong through flashing procedure.

And I had to mention that you need custom recovery even though if you preffer Dark Lord ROM.

See http://tablet-fun.com/post-940/

For the SIZE you mentioned, Genuine ROM (supplied by Docomo and/or Samsung) includes a lot of junk and messy Pre-installed apps (for me at least) so that the file size is too big!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Thanks again! :)

I could successfully install CM11 :highfive: I already had TWRP installed, so went like a charm.

Yes I'm aware of warranty (already voided, actually...) and NFC (I'm ok without it). Didn't know bout OneSeg.. but then I never used it either :) Anyway - thanks for warning!

My I ask couple more...

Can you use your Note 3 with CM12 installed with Docomo provider, ok? (I can't check it now, for some reason...)

I also wonder where's the Mobile Data tile in Quick Settings Panel has gone (in general Samsung Rom it looks like an icon with two arrows, left points down, and right points up, but I don't see it on CM)... Which tile you're using now to turn mobile data on/off? Just want to make sure this switch isn't gone.

And. I want to try to install CM12 (Lollipop), too. But, there's chance I'll want to go back to KitKat (downgrade). Will I be able to? That also includes going from CM12 to DarkLord KitKat. Wanna try them all :) I'm asking cause downgrading from KitKat to JellyBean isn't possible. Wonder how bout L to KK...

P.S. I installed CM11 from here (if someone would need it). Tried another one first but it didn't install on my SC-01F. This one installs fine.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] michael_hamada:
Glad to hear you've successfully flashed the ROM.

I'm using my CM12.1 based Note 3 with the SIM of Docomo as it used to be.

If you have some problem with baseband, I think the dev. had written a note for solution.

Though I can't find the note now, he said that the modem file version SC01FOMUBMIF will help.

About Quick Settings Panel, go through Setting --> Notification drawer --> Select and order tiles.

Can you find Data connection? If not, try Add and check the listed items.

(It's the procedure of my CM 12 based phone but CM 11 may be similar.)

Anyway, once you flashed TWRP, you can switch any ROM(if your device is supported) at any time.

(But you have to wipe data partition each time (at least when you switched to another ROM-family and/or another Android Versions),

so that you have to reinstall your apps each time.)

And with ODIN, you can even make it back to original state. (But WARRANTY won't revert you know.)

Best regards;

SC-01F unlock ,but no network,insert sim,how to posibol
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Earthlark:
Could use some advice. _(._.)_ Moving to an hour north of Kyoto. Trying to decide on N4 n910c (just received "new" one for good price from Amazon) and used N3 SC-01F (probably get from Amazon JP or Yahoo auctions). I'll be using it with b-mobile, OCN, iijmio, or Ymobile SIM+voice card.

I'd love to use the n910c, but only Band 1(2100MHz) matches. Band 3(1800MHz) also matches, but only in toumeihan area, so I may be too far away to use that band. Band 8(900MHz) also matches, but only with Ymobile (softbank towers). Advantages of this phone are that I already have it, I can use it in the US, and it's newer. More ROMs available as well.

Important for me to be able to use hotspot on phone so I can tether computer or tablet since I do a lot of work away from home. Not sure if sc-01f can do this even when rooted. No Wi-Fi hotspot capability? I did see some posts about BT tethering though so maybe it's fine once hacks are applied?

Anyway, if anyone has advice, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Sc-01f has tethering in the stock firmware.

Be careful on what your allowed to use. Softbank has a different plan for tethering.

Docomo allows it on LTE.

Not sure about Au.

Y Mobile is by far the best value mobile in Japan, but as far as data goes I'm not sure.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Earthlark:
Good to know. Thanks for the info!!

There is now a Stock lollipop firmware in Docomo it is now available in kies.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
I've already posted a guide on how to get it to say official.

There is a possibility that just installing the docomo rom will do it.

I think openrecovery_twrp_2.8.5.0_hltedcm.tar.md5 is for 4.4 and 5.0.

I'll try it this weekend.

I'll update the guide if there are any changes.

I've already updated the first post.

Download SuperSU from http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu to your sd card.

In the second post are some files, try them.

hltedcm-KK-KBC-CWM-v6.0.5.0_r0-recovery.tar

openrecovery_twrp_2.8.5.0_hltedcm.tar

Reboot to recovery, install the zip. Then you're rooted.

i means my sc-01f 5.0 was rooted,

but the nfc(felica)can not run, can not open....

i am trying to take it down....too hard...

:(
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
You need to flash the stock recovery back on after its rooted to get Felica back.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
had try,,,

when obin flash recovery back, Felica still not working... may be obin is the reason ....

:highfive:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
You are flashing back the whole rom.

You need to extract the recovery.img, put it in a tar file and just flash that.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
trust me, i did it as you said.

even try add boot+recovery,

nfc still not working
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
There is a trick you have to do. I have done is many times on many phones (Note 3, S4 etc).

Open the note 3 so that the back is off and the usb is connected. Reboot to download mode.

Put the official recovery.img tar in Odin in the PDA section.

Now hit flash, first the flash will start uploading then it will start flashing.

You need to pull the battery out during the flashing stage.

Don't worry it won't break the phone as long as the only file in the tar is recovery.

If you did this correctly, when you turn on the phone it will take you in to download mode again because of the failed flash. The download mode screen will look different. If it doesn't, repeat the last step.

Flash the recovery again.

You should be official and FeliCa will work.

You can install the custom recovery again, but you need to install busybox and mobile terminal to do it, you can't use Odin.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
"The download mode screen will look different. "

then do what? reflash the offical recovery again? and FeliCa may work?

if i want to root again, must flash rooted recovery by mobile terminal?

samply

1.flash offical rom by odin

2.flash root recovery by odin

3.go to recovery to install supersu

4.reflash offical recovery by odin not with power

5.reflash offical recovery by odin with power

6.reflash root recovery by mobile terminal

:crying:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Exactly.

Step 4 means you have to pull out the USB cable and battery while the flash is happening, too early or too late and it won't work and you'll have to try again.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
u way should better work,

if fail,i will go to 新宿 to find u ! to drink beer!:D
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yangyangyanglei:
hi,i had try,very sad,u flash recovery by no power useless,and it is too danger to broken phone.

i just pakage all the img ,mbh,ext4 file, not include system.img.ext4,just flash it,

nfc is working,every thing is ok,ofcourse rooted.

u should try it , good luck!

michael_hamada,

And thanks again!

Could install CM 12.1 Lollipop, as well.

But found lollipop a real disaster. Grey/green colors on white background, and DOUBLE swipe to show/hide quick settings tiles... I think google goes nuts. Less convenient, every update...

So, I'll try to install Darklord KitKat rom, and probably will stay with that.

Problem is, I cannot find a KitKat rom I need, even in DarkLord thread. Lots of files to download there, but which one is KitKat. And suitable for SC-01F.

Do you have any idea about that? I asked in DarkLord and samsungviet threads, but got no replies so far...

Not even necessarily has to be DarkLord. Just a Samsung-based KitKat custom rom, suitable for SC-01F. Looks I need some Samsung features...

P.S. oh, and about that "mobile data" quick setting tile, on CM. Yes, I found it, but it's icon looks like a "phone signal strength" icon. Like a triangle with sharp corner on the left.

On CM, it's called "mobile data". But shouldn't "mobile data" look different from "signal strength"? otherwise, how can you tell whether mobile data on or off, at all?.. I can't check it cause I don't have spare SIM now. But just curious. Looks like same icon for two different things, hmm.. :eek:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] michael_hamada:
Well, I don't know much about DarkLord, but I think it's built on Lolipop ONLY as it is based on Note 4.

I think CM 11 (based on KitKat) for hltedcm is the only ROM works with SC-01F (as it used to be my fav. until I'd moved to Lolipop), but unfortunately the dev. dropped the file from Google Drive. (I've come to know that minutes ago)

Try http://site.kbc-brick.org/samsung/sc-01f-galaxy-noteru-dcm/sc01f_rom_cm11-0

If you want the ROM file, please P.M. to me, so I'll upload the file I downloaded ago to Google temporary.

But you also need Google Apps for Kitkat and other stuff (I'm not sure... 'cause I haven't done these DOWN GRADE.)

And about "mobile data", I can't figure out what you want to do exactly with the tile, you can bring up the screen with a switch for mobile data on/off with one touch on THAT icon.

And with long press on THAT icon, you'll see the 'Mobile network settings' screen.

Unlocking

Anyone know how can I unlock this N900D?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] phido007:
I found a way to do this without changing launcher. Install one of these apps for launching any app you want with a swipe from the bottom up:

- SwipePad

- Swipe Home button

(Swapps is better imo but you can only swipe from the side)

But I do suggest to change launcher. TouchWiz is laggy. Loading apps with a swipe is slower than Nova launcher.

Or if you install the free version of Apex or Nova Prime you can define swipe gestures to launch any app from the home screen.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Kumabjorn:
Excellent suggestion. SwipePad works fantastic well. I'm even thinking about getting the add-ons for this. It seems like it will be worth the money.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] phido007:
With SwipePad I was only missing a shortcut to recent apps and to the notification window. But I found a solution for that too :)

Install Nova or Apex. Then assign a button for SwipePad with Shortcuts > Nova Launcher > Recent apps.
