[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Zeuszoos:
Hi. My device is as follows:

MetroPCS Samsung Galaxy (SGH-M819N) Mega 6.3"

Factory Jelly Bean v4.2.2 ROM, Rooted, TWRP Recovery

I don't know if this can be done, but I'd like to put in just a custom Kernel, so that I can OverClock my Mega.

I don't want to do a whole custom ROM, because I don't want to lose any of the features (WiFi Calling, etc), nor any of the many customization options that the phone has with the Factory ROM. Plus I've put a lot of time into getting it all exactly the way I want it.

I know that on another device in the past, I had a custom Kernel that I installed into the Factory ROM, but I don't know if I can with this device.

But anyway, that's all I want to change, is the Kernel, to be able to speed up the phone, as IMO, it is on the slower side, being only a Dual-Core.

Can anyone point me in the right direction please? I can't find anything and I'm pretty sure it has to be specific. I tried an International Version with my Note 2 and that did not go well! :)

Thank You!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] eksasol:
You want to backup the whole phone with TWRP first. You can go here to look for overclock kernels. If the kernel you flashed don't work, you can restore only the "boot" partition from your backup, which is the kernel. https://www.mediafire.com/folder/8uuvfvauztdna/MEGA_6.3#8uuvfvauztdna

But running CM with ART enabled make the phone 3 times faster, but actually it's pretty unstable right now. Overclocking isn't a great solution to solve Touchwiz lag issue. You should at debloating the stock rom and delete every apps that you don't need.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] MC FLMJ1G:
You can freeze a ton of apps. Not as good as a tweaked rom but there really isn't much of a choice.

I can find the thread if you want.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Zeuszoos:
I did debloat, but thank you. And thank you for responding.

Is there a certain one of those Kernels that I should choose?

Like, one of them says "AOKP", so it seems like maybe it's for a custom ROM, instead of for the stock 4.1.2 ROM.

Your insights???

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] eksasol:
You just have to try each one to see which will successfully boot the phone. AOKP, CM and Slimkat are based on stock android which is different from Samsung firmware. Another issue is those kernels might be for a different version of Android than the one you're running. But as long as you make a backup of your boot partition in TWRP, you can always restore the phone. There is also a factory odin image of the Metro Mega floating around, so you won't risk bricking the phone just from flashing the wrong kernel.

The program I recommend for customizing kernel settings is TricksterMod.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Zeuszoos:
I did try every one of them. None of them worked however.

I do make a backup at least once a day and I just restored the "Boot" each time.

I bookmarked TricksterMod, thank you.

Thank you for trying to help me and for your advice.

If I may ask, if you do happen to run across one and you think of it, maybe post here? I stay subscribed to this thread, so I'm notified of any new posts, as I'm sure you know. :)

Thank you again.

It is out. Now we need the firmware available.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] bnb25:
well it's not actually out. Metro PCS is sitting on it. Even the New Mega's Metro is selling are still on 4.2.2
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Mrcharmz:
Can you update with the t-mo version since conversion?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] MC FLMJ1G:
I am running a custom rom and do not have the MetroPCS stock rom. Stock Rom for MEga is relly bad, it is too bloated!!! We need the update so that we can have a KK rom that is nice and slim.

[HTC Sensation] padvou:
I don't want to be a smartass now, but I would like to point out this:

Since the majority of the users who are browsing the dev threads don't really care or don't want to do what is needed to help the devs to improve the Roms/kernels/mods etc, why doesn't every dev thread "hire" some volunteer beta testers to do the dirty work with proper reporting, logcats, kernel messages etc and then make a more public ready release?

Dev threads are in their majority spammed by questions not related to development, the same " I noticed this bug" posts, over and over again, very few people use the search function and so on...

I find it harder every day to read the articles/threads that interest me, because of this.

Imho, dev threads should be read-only for simple users and RW for the ones who are willing to do real testing.

After all, there is always the Q&A section.

With respect to the xda community, meaning no disrespect to anyone who might feel offended in any way by my thoughts.
[HTC Sensation] LaputaCake:
Its true ive just got this phone and my current phone(Hasnt arrived) a dev was trying to build cm10.2 but development almost stopped as their were no logcats as they didnt even have the device. They say they want these roms but they have to at least put a small amount of effort in.

Finally, AOSP here we come
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] idtheftvictim:
I thought source code was released back on October 4th?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] geekcentercreations:
It was released a while ago. I just didn't see it uploaded here and some of the stuff in the kernel and platform folders can be useful to people for tinkering or fixing so I uploaded.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] idtheftvictim:
Well awesome! Thank you so much dude! How is AOSP coming along? Any progress?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] chipis:
I know this question is out of this thread, but anyone knows when kikat be available for note 3??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] iakeco:
I'm finally going to try and tinker with this
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] asaqwert:
i wish i knew HOW to tinker with this! lol

do you need a linux box to build a rom and/or kernel or is it something that can be done just as well on a windows box?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] truthkillszz:
if you know that it has nothing to do with this thread then why ask? And if your asking about a touchwiz 4.4 no one knows samsung usually takes forever to do this. For example they just started rolling out 4.3 for the note 2 so my guess would be about a year lol. And as for a AOSP KitKat...yet again no one knows btw never ask for ETA's
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pyrilium:
I downloaded this from Sammy a few weeks back, and I was struck by how little is there. Yes, the full kernel sources are there - though of course a lot of stuff is still hidden in binary firmware blobs (presumably the TIMA/KNOX interface falls in this category). What struck me though was how little *platform* stuff is there. Is anyone else surprised by this? I would've thought they built more of their work on open-source foundations, but maybe not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Qwallace70129:
Is becoming more TizenOS with each new phone if you ask me
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mbradley672:
I can agree with this.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cbucz24:
Well you have to remember, 4.3 Samsung is 4.3 samsung. If you ever looked inside the apks, there is a ton of stuff not used. Reason that's so, it's more generic across devices.

The only real changes are drivers/libs. A lot of those get pulled from the device when building anyway.

As far as I've ever seen, an individual cannot build a lib. You cannot reverse engineer them. Nothing.

If the specific libs needed to make things work are not available, then they just won't work yet. It's that plain an simple. I've helped out a lot in source building threads.

I wish it was easier, but sadly it's not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pyrilium:
Yeah, I've done a lot of work administering standard linux machines and it's a completely different world. They may be using an open-source core OS, but it's clear that none of the vendors treat their development itself as a process that contributes to free software.

By libs, do you mean the kernel modules and/or binary firmware blobs that are needed to support different bits of hardware? Or actual system libraries? I guess in this case, both are frequently closed. I heard a couple months back that the Android lead engineer at Google actually stepped down over the issue of OEM-supplied firmware blobs - specifically how un-transparent the process is, and how it's hard to even get access to the binaries for distribution, let alone the source D:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sjc915:
Ok so here is the story... Flashed my I337 with MJ6, had some issues but was able to get upgraded to MJ9 yesterday. Then for some reason I decided to try vroot. Vroot worked well for the most part, but I wanted to unroot and accidentally wiped / factory reset the phone. This has put me into a look of powering up to only a screen that says that I have software not authorized by AT&T and it has a big yellow triangle and at the top in red it say "SECURE FAIL: KERNEL". I can get into ODIN mode and the stock recovery, but it fails eveytime i try to reflash MJ6 or the partial MF3 files. Please help, is there anything I can do to fix this or will I have to wait for someone to release a flashable MJ9? Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sjc915:
I have now been able to flash boot.img and aboot.mbn from the MJ9 update files. This has made it so that the phone boots up and immediately after the Samsung Logo it goes black and stays that way. Any suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] tylerholbrook:
Can you odin phils touch or a custom recovery and try to flash a custom or stock Rom? That's worked for me before when odin didn't work. And what version odin are you using? Try 3.07
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sjc915:
The phone is no longer rooted so I dont think I would be able to get around stock recovery. I have been using ODIN 3.04, I will try 3.07 and let you know how it goes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] RockRatt:
Do NOT try to put a recovery on your phone. It will NOT work and make things worse. Unfortunately since you incremented the qfuse at MF3, then another at MJ6, ( and I do not know but I would think MJ9 may have used another qfuse) you most likely won't be able to do much until the full Odin firmware comes out for MJ9. Hope you get it working.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
I'm not sure if Samsung blew a q-fuse between MJ6 and MJ9 or not. MJ6 was never an official release and I have always theorized that a Dev could take the bootloader files from the leaked MJ6 ODIN Tar and put them with the official MJ9 OTA files and create a version of MJ9 that would be ODIN flash-able. I just don't have the time (or extra phone) to try it with.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sjc915:
These are both theories that have run through my head, at first I felt like I may have made changes that were irreversible by flashing MJ6 then back to MF3 then up to MJ9, and I was just going to get it as working as possible and see if BestBuy can flash MJ9 at the "Samsung Experience" I have seen hit or miss results with this on the forums.

I then thought of what scott14719 is saying and i decided to piece together parts of MJ6 and MJ9 because as he said MJ6 was not a full release. I am going to try and put this together today, I am a noob when it comes to android but I will give it a shot.

So I am rooted and I am on IOKP v1.4 11/14/13. My phone is not reading my SD card and its a 32gb. Was working on my s2 before I put it on this phone. Now its not working. I'm not sure what the problem is but its pissing me off. My apps can't even update because it says "insufficient storage available" my internal is somehow full. Even though I have no music, no photos or anything that takes up a lot of space. I cleared my phone up and still saying I used a lot of space. Any suggestions or what I should do exactly?

I was wondering if there is any progress on the bootloader unlock, or should I just pretend that it won't happen?

Also, I noticed that there aren't any developers that have created a 4.3 TouchWiz rom. Is this development halted because of the KNOX security issues?

Thanks for the help!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mateopase:
There are at least 2 TW 4.3 ROMs. One of them even has an Aroma installer.

Can you link me to them, or atleast tell me which ROMs they are?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mateopase:
This is the only one actually. It looks pretty good. Keep in mind, you need to be on MDK to use it since it uses a 4.3 kernel.

yeah, to be honest, I kind of was hoping for a bigger vender like Hyperdrive or Eclipse to do this to their ROM. Also, it looks like their 4.3 ROM is in early beta stages. thanks though!!

Anyone know anything about the bootloader progress?

Hi. I'm new to this, stuck on ME7 with Safestrap. Am I better off going back to stock and updating it OTA, then rooting? Is there a better recovery then that will allow me to update to 4.3 and eventually 4.4 Roms? Sorry the NOOB question.

I know that the reason it is not on here is because of I\O wear out on the flash memory.(Crappy chip)

And thanks for the second link in your sig.

I dont want to load up another build though.

And geez. I would figure that google would put it in the for crying out loud developer options.

I like it completely stock.

I start from the ground up with modifying the build to my liking.

Thats why I'm a huge fan of Xposed Framework and the Arch Linux model.

Why complain here? is anyone significant going read it.?
[Nexus 7 General] Cor-master:
I think an explanation is what we need. Obviously it was a technical issue, but like every technical issue, Google leaves us in the dark and leaves us to speculate. I'd also like to know why we can't get a kernal higher than 3.1 when nvidia actually makes a 3.4 kernal too.

[Nexus 7 General] Cor-master:
I really don't care that much. As far as I'm concerned my nexus 7 feels more like an antique these days and art or a new Kernal isn't going to magically make it a tegra 4 or give it another gig of ram. I was just replying to the topic that's all, wasn't my creation

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Goindrinkn:
By this time everyone knows 4.3 OTA has been pulled. There doesn't seem to be much information here on XDA or elsewhere other that for "unspecified" reasons.

Has anyone who has been running it had any real issues? (Other than battery life being significantly negatively affected I have not.)

I will say that I have "Turned off" many AT&T and Samsung Apps that I do not use and that it let me. And I am using a different launcher, no wall paper etc, so I may not be running into an issue if it was "out of the box pure stock" related. / I'm also comparing battery life to when I was on 4.2.2 (MF3) but rooted and with a number of apps frozen etc. So it's not apples to apples.

On a side note, I was also very displeased with some of the additional apps that were installed as system apps (Lookout etc.) as these are not AT&T or Samsung related, and I would think I as a consumer should have some say in what I want on there or not, especially when it isn't purchased that way.
