PS : If you are on VN ROM (V14) and want to flash this ROM (Or any other ROM around here OR stock ROM) you will lose your IMEI

To retrive IME you have to flash NE1 modem OR Restore old EFS backup, that you have made before flashing VN v14
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] ForceField:
Downloading .....:D oh boy , it's huge

Just a questions , I was reading other threads and noticed that there is a problem related with the modem NE1 and the IME

Samsung seems to lock bootloader and modem .

If we flash NE3 will we be able to flash another base without the IME error?

thank you
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
I have not tried but don't think so because modem on NE3 and previous ND1 seems same.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] ForceField:
Thank you for your answer :)

So let's go for it.

Well,a Flashaholic's got to do what a Flashaholic's go to do :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] sawgent:
new modem have got new efs system so if you downgrade your modem, imei is null/null.

tested and solved.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
What you have tested and what solved? Which ROM?

btw modem shouldn't change EFS but it is kernel, in past samsung have made change in kernel which causing EFS modification and old modem were unable to read this change.

Anyway

Here is my test report

-Downgrade full ROM to K8.1 - No IMEI issue

-Flashed K9 (NE3) again and selected Old modem in aroma INU modem (downgrade modem to K8.1) -No IMEI issue.

-Manually dowbgrade modem too old (NA6 russia) - NO IMEI issue.

Here attached screenshot NE3 ROM + NE3 stock Kernel + very old NA6 Modem + My notification pulldown you can see connected to my operator and so confirming NO IMEI issue.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] odragde:
Finally,...was able to access this thread.

Your ROM Doc is the best that I've flashed on my Note 3. Love the home screen rotation. I'm on K8.1 now and will try K9. Downloading K9 now...

Hats off Doc :good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] Loverboy91:

[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
On which ROM you were earlier to K9?

Have you used any custom kernel?
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] Loverboy91:

There is no option to disable right now, but you just need to click 'maximize' symbol to remove floating.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] stanley08:
Tried 2 different setups/selections and ROM just won't boot.

Now I will try to flash over stock MK2 without wipe and see...

There is a separate app already available for this Floating Multi Window & wish it was optional to those who wanted it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] holygeek:
I have tried wiping data, formatting and stuff. Gallery and Data structure problems were still there.

Flashed another Custom ROM and wuala, problem solved! =)
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:

To sum up main issues i faced after v2;

- Gallery app not enough space problem. As far as i know there is no proper solution yet. I persoenally use Gallerry KK to replace the orjinal gallery, this app is downloadable from playstore. This is a big problem and have to be patched immediately..

- Apps recovered by Titanium back up force close. TB restore fixer is the known solution..

- Ram usage is avarage 1,80. I dont think this is an rom issue bu the usage in the other roms i use were about 1,50 to 1,70. May be it is related to new base.

- It is early to talk about battery life. But after using 4 hours heavly (wifi-bluetooth-gps on, 20 minutes of talking, mails etc) i have %91 left, not bad..I will use for three days and get a clear benchmark after that..

- May be that is related to my device but i feel like maks volume level has decreased compared to other bases..There is a thread on how to make the volume states higher in the exynox forum..Be careful on the max settings it becomes too loud, i suggest using min or normal level..

Other users may have other bugs or issues to mention about but overall, v2 seems ok,

Thanx mr. ketan.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
1.This is something related to data link, If it is issue of ROM then everyone should have issue. It's happening to few one only.

2.This is TB issue

3.This is possible if you have selected Supercharge, max RAM means more hidden app in memory, which improves performance while recalling app from memory. I never understand higher RAM concern.

4.Yes as you said, it's early.

5.Don't know but I feel it is raised, though I am not much music fan. you may be right. But it's Base related, I have not tweaked anything regarding sound.

Hi, Doc!

i have a question, with ur rom v1 if i apply theme for n9005 and the wifi turnes off but i flash the patch ver 1.1 and everything works ok now.

does the ver 2 means that the applying of theme again will disable wifi? can i again patch ver 2 with 1,1 patch?

v1.1: Wireless Charging does not work

Hey Guys,

Anyone using wireless charging with V1.1 of this ROM? I just received my Tylt VU wireless charger and to my biggest disappointment my note 3 with Original Samsung branded S-View flip case that has built in wireless receiver does not charge and the Nexus 4 does. Even S3 with a receiver does charge on this VU.

I have NFC ON just in case. Can somebody help if it worked for you or if this ROM is not compatible so that I can look for another.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] baris_76:
Thanks for your quick response..i have tried poppuri and pacific roms which are mk2 bases..yours is byfar the best for now..others have very annoying bugs..in time this issues will be solved i hope..

[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
Flash theme from different devce/ROM is bad idea.

Usually theme modify SystemUI,SecSetting,Framework etc. So flashing from different ROM/device will messup many things and even device work still you will lose many functionality of original ROM.

It's still OK if theme available as vrtheme with only images, but now since 4.3 vrtheme not working so all available theme will be available as Full apk. But as you are saying it breaks wifi, it highly suggets your said theme is having vrtheme base and that's why it breaks wifi.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] sohebq:
Made fresh install but having similar issue like someone else quoted, gallery isnt opening due to low storage also if i install app from dropbox, it says not enough storage. Any solution doc?
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] gotovamsee:
No one using wireless charging with this ROM here ? I like the rom otherwise and don't have any issues so far. Don't wanna try flashing another rom.

Isn't wireless charging a hardware thing?
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] stanley08:
Modded SystemUI, All build.prop tweaks applied except increase touch response, No WIPE. And No FCs.

ROM works good, but heats up.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] sohebq:
Moved back to poppuri rom and gallery issue is solved so it seems like its a rom related issue,
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] TKokab:
I don't think its a rom related issue.

I am using the rom since its release and never had a problem and not a single FC.

It can be like SDcard not responding and corrupted. Need to format it and check.

If it is with everyone its Rom issue otherwise there must be a way around.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] guyluvsgals:
Guys! anyone uses Evernote? cant get app to sync keep getting errors
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
For gallery issue try this

Reboot device to recovery

Select Mount & Storage

Select mount USB storage

Now attach device to PC, you will se new drive letter on your PC for Int SD card

Rt click on drive letter and select property

This will open new box for property, select Tools tab from there

Select Erro-checkig - Check now - keep first option (Auto fix error) selected and finish.

Unplug from PC and reboot device without Ext SD card and check if it solved.

[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
Please attach your screenshot of about device aftre patching that modem. Let me study why this happens with VN rom only. Not only flashing K9 but user have reported who flashed new version of VN rom itself.

[MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION] our ROM users who have not flashed VN ROM let me know if this happens to you or not.

because it may requires more study.

[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
You will lose IMEI most probably, I have asked Aditya bcoz he saying he didn't have any issue. This will happen when you flash official ROM OR any ROM based on official NE3
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
Only way you can say you are affected or not.

Otherwise keep as it is.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] Er. Aditya:
il keep it as it is at office i dont need any troubles :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
Ok so I have some positive findings which I believe root cause of IMEI fiasco.

- The modem given above to FIX IMEI is different from one which comes built in NE3 official ROM

MD5 of both modem are

693EEB9E654D16701CC97146331B1EC3 - patched given few page back to fix.

B136AEB10E58970A01EBBDC3379F9CFB - Stock (which packed in official NE3 Modem)

-Again You can see screenshot by [MENTION=5862826]Urban pendu[/MENTION] in previous page, which suggest baseband is NE1 after flashing patched modem, that again confirms modem is different.

-Here is screenshot of Sammobile firmware information.

NE3 available for N900 is only one. and infromation suggest packed modem is NC1 and NOT NE1

So Big question is what is source of patched NE1 modem which you needs to use compulsory??

Only possibility I can see is it is non stock but leaked version and yet not available on sammobile / any other official source.

Again remember issue is not modem but kernel. Kernel causing some modification in EFS that old modem can't read and you have to use new modem compulsory.

Though if it is implemented by samsung we will soon see on next official ROM too. But It's solely responsibilty of developer to through light about source of these if one is non official or leaked.

PS : Who are on stock ROM/any Other version of My ROM shouldn't this happen and you can flash K9 OR any other stock ROM you wish without IMEI issue. IMEI issue seems to happen who have flashed a NE3 ROM which seems not yet released(leaked) version.

Official NE3 ROM available on Sammobile have kernel dated on 20thMay and Modem is NC1 which don't have any issue.(K9 have that base only)
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] lhikari:
So this is the cause of the wofi slowdown?

And video player stock one lags when playing 500mb hd videos
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
No no this is different thing, just read few pages back. some user of VN ROM have lost IMEI after flashing different ROM .
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] djmax81:
yup.!!! K-9 work fine on k8.1

Hi [MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION]!!!! yes i dirty flashed k9 works fine on k8.1 ....tho

But i gotta request if possible ....can make an custom kernel .... ? with UV optional kernel ??? here is source code

if only possible
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
can you check which is your kernel and date of kernel?

better if you attach screenshot. urben pandu have attached SS is only showing baseband as he is using TR ROM now.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
I have modified kernel upto ramdisk level only and yet not zImage.

But I am keen to learn kernel modification. Please don't expect it too early.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] Loverboy91:
Well this what i am seeing now after i flash the patch and it is working now
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
It's already given by other users. yes you have NE1 modem which is different from one NE3 available on sammobile.

Now I need screenshot of a user having latest VN ROM.

[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] tranquility:
Hi doc, I'm on 8.1 now, can I dirty flash to version 9? Or you still advise full wipe. Is there also risk of losing imei?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] ForceField:
Here it is Dr. Ketan I flashed VN ROM 14 this morning before downloading K9

Everything is working fine

I've been monitoring this thread since this morning but now I am Sooooooooo afraid to flash K9
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] djmax81:
alright

Alright.!!! but still was an Idea ....as you super with your Rom magic till now thought ......will suggest you kernel .... as i use to be good with custom kernels .... making of my own ... but with our N900 n octa-core ... exynos i feel like helpless too ....off my skills tho
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
Who are on our ROM or any other ROM who doesn't have built in NE1 moden shouldn't have any issue.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
Ok I find one more thing, your kernel is also different from one available on stock NE3. read date of your kernel 13May14 while on NE3 which available on sammobile it is 20May14. so why your kernel is old? So samsung have not released this kernel? then what is source.

I have repeatedly said it is not modem but kernel. Your kernel should be root cause of IMEI fiasco.

You will surely lose your IMEI if you flash K9 / NE3 stock available on sammobile or any ROM here that doesn't have similar kernel.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] Umair Ahmad:
quote

should i flash NE3 via odin?
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
you will lose IMEI again and have to flash Ne1 modem to restore it. Try and let us know.

One possibility still there if you have EFS backup that you have made earlier.

after flashing stock ROM if you restore that EFS, you will again gain possibilty to downgrade modem.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] Umair Ahmad:

i don't have old EFS back :(
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
AFAIK then you have to live with NE1 modem or later.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] Umair Ahmad:

Which rom have Ne1 modem??
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
That I am also want to know. The modem given to you (On VN 14) is NE1 and sammobile have only one NE3 ROM which have NC1 modem so I don't know exactly source of kernel/modem which causing issue.

May be we all have same if samsung have implemented it, but yet any official samsung ROM doesn't showing this trend.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] ForceField:
I am glade that you were able to pinpoint the problem

If I flash a new kernel,the 20 one , will it work again ?

Otherwise I will be stuck on VN 14

I am leaving my work. Probably I will respond from home
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
You didn't get me.

The kernel (which you have) is causing some changes in EFS that older modem can't read.

Now kernel (20th or say one packed in NE3 ROM available officially now) doesn't have any effect on EFS. so if you flash 20th one it won't do anything. Also such effect are non reversible by kernel. Once you flash such kernel (the one you are having) you have to use new modem forever

OR

What I believe is

If you have EFS backup which you have made earlier, this can reverse.like this

First flash stock ROM or any ROM based on stock available ROM say K9.

You will lose IMEI

Now restore older EFS backup and you are out of issue. and again you will be able to flash any ROM.
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] Umair Ahmad:
Can't we find EFS back of older modem??
[Galaxy Note 3 Exynos Android Development] dr.ketan:
EFS backup you have to make it manually and varies with everyone. you will have EFS backup only you have made it earlier.
