Nice to hear your back MJ. Never unsubscribed just could miss your reappearance :). Lol guess your not going to read the thousand comments we lefted displaying our greef lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Spellable:
Glad your back man looking forward to see future updates :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Should have a first 6.0 up tonight or tomorrow.

At the moment it's looking like it will be a lot like 5.8 updated to 4.4. May lose a few things and gain some others. Should be a good start. Though I fully expect it to take a few revisions to get everything set up properly. One of the main goals will be battery life also. All the new features and gizmos with newer versions usually come with a cost in terms of power (speed wise and life of battery) . Though stripping down the base and allowing users to install only wanted packages is a good start. (Like 5.8 installer) I'm hoping to increase use able performance even beyond what 5.8 was capable of.

Only question now is whether to release 6 in this thread. Or park this one as the old legacy version and start a new one with the 4.4 build.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] TMPOOLE:
You have so many subscribers on this thread you might as well maintain it. Just put a link to skip to new base in your original post. We'll figure it out, (unless your embarrassed by how much you were missed). If I'd realized I wasn't going to be able to run this anymore, I'd have never upgraded to 4.4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] twizzles:
Same here. :/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] adventure95004:
I knew there was a reason I stuck with this rom, I'm a little late but glad you're back...

Off to check it out ☺

Still says 5.8 in the OP.

Fix Permissions

Hi, I just need a quick hand. I can't remember what it is that I need to do in order for "Fix Permissions" to actually go thru succesfully. I'm not a noob, so I'll understand the terms. For now, the permissions are saying failed, then when I try to reboot, it says that "There is no OS installed". PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks so much in advance guys!!! :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
You can fix permissions from recovery, but I believe the install procedure from the OP includes what is needed to get the entire process running.

I assume that you're still on MJ4, yes?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Enmund:
Yes, I'm trying to do the whole installation thru recovery. 5.8
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Thanks guys. I know I'm running behind. Just trying to polish up 6.0 so it's actually an improvement over 5.8. Should be along shortly. I went with a whole from scratch re write this week
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
It's been a minute since I ran the 5.8 installer. But be sure you reboot after wiping. Also double check your not missing a step.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mmaccon:
Woot woot!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] adventure95004:
I don't mind waiting, I'm still running 5.8 and still happy would rather wait a little and get a good 6.0
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] wingzero186:
question what would cause a insufficient storage space error with only certain apps I have plenty of space on internal and external storage
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mmaccon:
If you've used lucky patcher, it will cause this. One of the many reasons to stay away from it. You can Google for steps to remedy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] wingzero186:
I've never even heard of that app I use exposed to make patches and changes

Is this for MJ4, NAB or NC5?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dustwun77:
MJ4
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sholee:
I'm not sure if neone else has this problem or not, i havent read the whole thread but for some reason my note 3 keeps logging me out of my gmail account. I have to keep logging back into my gmail account just to sync my contacts multiple times in a day. I'm not sure if this is from the rom or a phone issue. is anyone else experience this problem? or know neway to fix this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] twizzles:
I had the same issue as well. Not as often as you but still had to keep logging in
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] benjaminclaw:
I used to run this ROM and had the same problem. It was a known issue and I don't think it was ever resolved.

Did he abandon this or is it just taking awhile to perfect?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Snottierwhale:
For nc5 version. I was asking if he is working on it. Cause u had the sad face.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ReubenRene:
Sure hope it's coming soon(fingers crossed)...almost a month of waiting at my computer lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] twizzles:
Same here :/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] spyke24:
From what i have been reading and seeing on Xda, a lot of Devs are leaving or just completely stopping there development. I don't believe mjcollum has left, but he is human and stuff dose happen in life to prevent us from completing work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
Care to quantify "a lot of Devs," as I am genuinely curious.

Many thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Snottierwhale:
Yah there are no devs who have "abandoned" if he is referring to sac he is still pushing updates. Lol im very curious.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] adventure95004:
Hi Mods, wondering if the thread should be locked until MJ wants or can maintain it again. I'm still on this rom and happy with it but some of the speculation and comments are a little depressing.

The downloads are still available if you need to do a refresh and I would hate to see some of the information get buried in useless speculation posts..

If THIS post is out of line let me know and I will delete it.

Regards Andy

Hope all is well with MJ and his absence is just a life that is too busy (in a good way) ☺
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nala_:
He is literally almost done and says he will be posting something new any day now. I know yall are feeling like he's abandoned this but please just be patient.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] david129:
Is he keeping the dpi feature on the phone like with the status bar and all
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] benjaminclaw:
I would guess his personal preference there will persist, but it's also super easy to do on your own with any ROM. Just follow these instructions : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2507369

So even if he doesn't we can do it ourselves :)

Patently waiting

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] spyke24:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Goddly:
Indeed....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] BHurst:
all of a sudden I started getting dpi issues and slowness with this Rom... do I flash part one, two, or both for a fresh flash but to preserve my apps and settings?

thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] adventure95004:
Funny it has started to slow down for me too, a couple of months ago I backed up with titanium and just reflashed everything and was happy again so I will probably do the same

---------- Post added at 11:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:59 AM ----------

Kinda bummed about getting an update probably will have a note 4 soon :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] twe90kid:
most likely this dev isn't coming back. probably just wanted to test the water to see if more donations come in.

time to unsubscribe.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kennyfool:
Ouch. What a way to revive a thread.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Goddly:
There's hope. ....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
mama

Maximus 6.alpha.test1 is available.

now that the note 3 is on what should be its inal supported major sprint update.

and because it is now stable and an actual improvment to the old 5.8 build.

this is the basic rom. everything works. there is still a few 100 mb to be removed as i finish cleaning things up. and it needs a rewrite to the aroma installer. but for now its a good clean start.

based on 4.4.4 (freeza's deodex)

all features from 5,8 build except aroma installer.

stock kernel

everything should work.

if anyone wants to play with it....

Link work on laptop. I was not able to download using my cellphone. Thanks bro!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dustwun77:
This is weird. :)

I flashed the rom, and it went quickly and smoothly, I am glad you are back!

Using TWRP 2.8. I saw where it said it had installed Superuser and Busybox during the install. Then TWRP said it didn't appear that my phone was rooted, did I want it to? sure, go ahead.

Booted the phone, it did everything it was supposed to and I got hooked up and was restoring apps from the playstore. I saw a notification that I wasn't rooted, did I want it to do so, I ignored it, SuperSU was one of the updates.

Anyway, started roaming around the rom, see you have the dpi set where it is hard for my old eyes, at this point, lol. Tried an app that needs root, no joy. clicked on supersu, it said the binaries were not installed and it could not do it.

Anyway, I reflashed the rom, told TWRP no this time, in case it was conflicting with what you had set up. still no joy, not rooted.

so, I used twrp to back it up, restored a nand, and I am back in business with root. So, what is up with that? :confused:

I used TWRP 2.7.1 when I Odined NH7 and it was successful in rooting the phone. Is there a failing in TWRP 2.8 where it doesn't work? Why does it not see the binaries when i saw that installing them was part of the process of installing the rom?

I know just enough to be dangerous. :) Thank you for thinking about this, looking forward to your rom being my daily driver again, it was so smooth and fast! going to call it a night.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
i used http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2596001 for recovery to install and it went fine.

if i get a chance ill go back and try with the latest twrp also but there is no reason it shouldnt work.

ill be messing with the installer with a move back to aroma with all the options so that may help the root issue also
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
also i included the texdroider app to set the dpi on the fly easily can set back to 490 for stock size
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] seVIIn7:
Im using the latest twrp as well. I flashed the rom and lost root too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] seVIIn7:
UPDATE: Dirty flashed w/philz CWM. Now i have root.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dustwun77:
I just restored a nand and the rom I restored showed rooted. Surprised me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
i spent a few hours this afternoon getting the basic aroma installer set up.

should ix the install issues also.

seems to be coming along nicely.

ill probably post a beta test in the next day or two if i can get some free time to spend on it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dustwun77:
I went ahead and flashed Philz and loaded up this rom. It definitely does have root now. :)

Kind of like this recovery but I wonder if I made a nand with TWRP now if it would stay rooted? :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
my bet is yes
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Managed to squeeze in another few hoirs this afternoon.

Down to 850 ish mb from 1.5gb.

many useless and duplicate files rearanged or removed.

some more optimizations.

very smooth and snappy.

the basic aroma install is working very nicely.

battery life seems very good bit will require more testing

all basic functionality intact.

Fixed supersu issue.

Beta will be a pretty minimal build.

any versions after that will start the official 6.0 release and will begin to include the options in the aroma installer to pick which things you want.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] BHurst:
Does this gave the loudness mod and the black theme from 5.8 like I have now?

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] twe90kid:
Lol, this thread popped up in my feed. I've already advanced to the note 4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kennyfool:
Here, take this cookie.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Loudness yes.

black theme partially.

there are still some things to invert.

i javent done most of the apps to black yet i need to spend a few hoirs with the dialer specifically
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Goddly:
The dialer is a royal pain. Wish it were just an XML edit. Instead of removing xmls etc. I'd help you out. Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] BHurst:
How do you upgrade to this from 5.8?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Yea i need to make time to spend two or three full days to get everything up to snuff.

the dailer itself is probably at least a full day project.

itll take a full day of work to get a full aroma installer with all the options together.

the basic core of the rom is pretty mich done though.

Battery life has improved for me quite a bit at this point.

very smooth and snappy.

seems stable all the major stuff has been tested and working.

Probably be a few days before a beta. Im putting what time i can into it i should be able to arrange to work on ot most of this weekend so will see.

As a teaser...

my battery use from the last test period.....

this is under my normal use conditions..

web browsing. Minor gaming.some wifi Hotspot. I listened to an ebook with librivox for an hour.

see pics.

Had around 4 hours of screen on auto dimness setting at the 50 percent mark.

losses less than 1percent an hour in standby while still having an increased poll frequency from 5.8

And the best part is there is still room for improvement.

And this is my original launch day battery.

i very much like.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
You would need to upgrade to the latest nh7 4.4.4 build first. I used the official samsung update. With odin.

i then flashed an updated recovery i posted a link a page back.

then can install.

Ill get some real instructions up step by step style when i get a chance. Still a lot to do.

Though you may want to wait for the beta. It will be a major improvment over the alpha

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] hebejebe:
Since upgrading to NH7, I haven't found much that I really like. This ROM on the other hand is a different story for me. I'm liking it, A LOT. I cant wait for updates! Also, just FYI, I had the same root issues using TWRP 2.8. I also had an issue with Chrome. Had to go into es explorer and make it update. I dont know much about the back-end like most of the others around here so it was something I just kind of fumble upon. Otherwise, all seems good. Wifi hotspot worked, took some nice outdoor pics with the wife and kids today, and battery life seems pretty good. I'll try a dirty flash with Philz tomorrow when I get back home to a stable wifi connection. Looking forward to what you have coming!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Looks like I forgot to include the chrome libraries in the alpha installer. Thats a mistake ive made before easy fix. Good call.

The alpha was just a teaser the beta is the bomb.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] chico260:
BIG Thank you for your dedication ??????
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] hebejebe:
Bring it! :cool:

also, I just dirty flashed with Philz and I now HAVE root.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DreamingWolf:
In TWRP I just flashed the rom and supersu in the same session and everything works and I have root. Great work!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] hebejebe:
also... i dont see a voicemail app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
I may have not included a stock voicemail as i run all my calls through google voice. I didnt remove any voicemail library calls though so you can install any of the voicemail apps.

ill probably include the stock sprint app in the beta.

The next versions after the beta will allow you to pick and choose exactly what you want to install and nothing extra. Much like the older 5.8 build did.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dustwun77:
Which super su is it that you flash like that please?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] GavinMazey:
Probably from right here http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dustwun77:
thanks a lot! I support him, I have the playstore version I bought, didn't know there was a flashable one! thanks!

If you ever need the latest flashable version just do a search of all forums here on XDA for SuperSu, and the first link is to Chainfire's thread.

Thanks:good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
At the moment there is only one download option.

i have a hard time uploading from my house as i live in the country 30 miles from the nearest town and have stability problems uploading large files over my crappy third world network.

That and my phone gets all of 1 bar of 3g at home so i cant even reliably ise that to upload.

Though i will try for multiple mirrors the next time i upload.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Thanks everyone.

pulled an all nighter last night just getting up.

the beta is done and zipped and ready to be uploaded.

My bandwith at home is extremely limited so it will have to wait to het uploaded until the next time i run to town and get some wifi.

Ill try and post at least two seperate links when i do.

Its pretty good so far a definite improvement over the old 5.8 and the alpha.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] TrofeoSC:
Great! Nice to see you!

[MENTION=3795345]mjcollum[/MENTION] are you doing a minimus rom or just maximus? Thanks in advance!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
I probably wont build a seperate minimus build. It was never as popular.

Though i may make a minimus barebones install an option in the maximus installer.

Or if enough people want a seperate minimus i may pop one out

Issues im seeing so far is notifications dont go away after clicking on them to respond and took a couple of reboots before the dark theme stuck in notifications as well. Not sure why. Was blue for a while. Been enjoying the ROM so much i barely noticed lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Try swyping the notifications from left to right instead of clicking
