Is it possible to install a rom with init.d support ? or is that part of the kernel ?

If i try set selinux to permissive in the init will it stick ? im on a note 3 sm 9005 .

Thanks.

note 3 support included, but only with the newest alpha. My phone is N9005 and I run Touchwiz Rom(X-Note v20) as primary and the latest Slimkat as secondary Rom.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ravian29:
I think aosp roms should be primary as they update fast as compare to touchwiz. In my opinion will save flash secondary over and over

Hello, is this recovery for newer based rom than ND3? Can I use it on NG1? :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Steven1962:
Yes, you can
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] neuropsychosis:
Installed safestrap but it wont install recovery whenever i click on it. it goes thru the motions of installing recovery but the status wont change and no splashscreen comes up when i reboot. I tried to install it several times but no dice.

Using stock nh1 rooted with exposed modules, not sure if that causes any incompatibility issues.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Steven1962:
Try ro reinstall busybox and check that it gets superuser privileges.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Mitoush:
Hi, each ROM that I installed to the slot have huge battery drain (over night about 50%) and if I try app SetCpu it show me that from stock kernel have clock frequency between 1267 to 2265 Mhz and governor is performance. Note 3 is all the time of usage hot. I tried to change frequency or governor but kernel is doing its own. If I tried in SetCpu "state in time" it showed me that 2265 Mhz have over 50% of usage. (yes I tried another apps- CPU control, voltage control etc. but with same results).

Using latest 3.75,towelroot and I'm on NG1

Can someone help me with this? Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Peri Noid:
First of all, change the governor to ondemand (at least). If it does not change the frequency problem, try sending a kill signal to mpdecision process. I'm on a stock kernel. Sometimes I can observe that one or more of the cores get stuck at higher frequency and it doesn't want to go offline. It helps then. I'm using BusyBox and it allows me to execute simple

# killall -9 mpdecision

Of course, you need root access to do it.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Mitoush:
Thanks. Of course at first I did change governor from performance to interactive but it didn't help. Now I'll try ondemand. I had busybox installer which installed to note version 1.20.2 and now I tried just busybox app which allow me installation of 1.22.1 so maybe it will help. I tried Google to find what you mean by "# killall -9 mpdecision" but I didn't find anything about it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Peri Noid:
If interactive governor does not help then ondemand will not, either. Probably. BusyBox version is not important here, it is enough to have any version of killall, which makes things easier (you can do the same with just ps and kill combination, but it is a bit more difficult for you must find one process among dozens). "killall -9 mpdecision" means that you want to send the SIGKILL signal to all instances of mpdecision running in your system. It should terminate this process. But since it is essential to the system processor management (at least, in the stock firmware), the system will respawn it immediately. What is good then, mpdecision will reinit core clock settings. In my case, after such operation, cores can again become offline and the core frequency limits are fixed.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Mitoush:
OK and how can I send it? In busybox or via terminal?

Don't understand why I have this problem with overheating etc. I didn't find anybody with same problem... Before note 3 I had note 2 and battery life was about 3 days and now with this "awesome device" I have to charge twice a day :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Peri Noid:
In the terminal, type:

su - -c "killall -9 mpdecision"

Edit: well battery drain much less (during night 10 % - with custom kernel on note 2 it was less but for beginning is nice). When I am browsing with chrome cpu getting hot (not so much as before but getting) Is it normal?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Steven1962:
Very silly but somehow I just can't enter this line correctly in the terminal. Maybe I make wrong spaces or something. . Is there a way to copy paste the line into the terminal?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Mitoush:
Line is correct but I had this problem when I tried it on slot rom - you must be on stock slot and then it will work ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Peri Noid:
10% per night is OK. My Note consumes less then 1% per hour at night with WiFi and cellular data transfer switched off. Getting hot just while Web browsing is not normal. But... maybe mine is not getting wormer because I'm permanently in the powersave mode, where CPU is limited to 1.5 GHz. Check, how much battery is consumed.

Wytaptalkowane na notatniku
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Mitoush:
Yeah, when I have powersave mode on, then phone temperature is in normal when I am browsing but when I turn on any game it get hot again. I have no experience with Snapdragon so I hope that is it normal that heating. If you turn of powersave mode is your note getting hot too?

About battery consume... I had high Android system and OS but it was because of new ROM (I think) and now is less. Most consumption I have from screen and with normal usage I have about 3-4 hours screen on with +-30% battery at the end of day.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Peri Noid:
So you may assume, the your phone behaves normally. At least I have similar. CPU may get pretty warm when operates at full speed.

Ok, This will be an interesting request. What I'd like to do is use the headset controls on my Motorola roadster 2 speakerphone to control the media playing on my Android phone. That's easy, however I have to use its built in Fm transmitter. If I turn off the audio to the bluetooth device the audio controls don't work. I'd like to have to audio for media use the headphone jack, but still be able to control it with the speakerphone. I'm rooted and all so that's not an issue. I'm a deliver driver and buttons make it way easier to pause my audiobooks at each stop.

Alright, so i rooted my phone yesterday, And i made a mistake in downloading the OTA update and it turned off my phone. Now when i turn it on it boots into TWRP and when i reboot System it takes me back to TWRP. Pretty much everything takes me back to TWRP, and when i try to flash a ROM that also takes me back to TWRP. Im able to get my device recognized in adb devices and i tried using adb push to get roms on that way but it still takes me to TWRP. When i tried using flash tools to get it to flash a stock rom from my PC, it is unrecognized because it wont boot into download mode. Any ideas?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikkey81:
So I had this happen with an S4 I got for my son for Christmas. It was the first thing he did when he started it up. I immediately freaked out.

I plugged into a PC and got my drivers all set up. Got through on adb and did a fastboot reboot.

It let me boot back up (it can't flash the ota because of twrp).

Hope that works on the g2.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] momonjava:
That happened to me. It was a bad flash via CM updater and it was stuck in TWRP. I downloaded the ROM onto my computer then pushed it to an SD card (via a card reader). Then I inserted the card and flashed from the SD card and all was well. I have a Galaxy S3 so YMMV, but hope this helps.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killiun1:
ya, instead of a card reader, i just used adb push and i tried flashing a stock rooted rom for my device.. but it failed, so i was considering trying CWM instead of TWRP, which might help, but i dont know the command for flashing a recovery via terminal.

edit: i got CWM and tried installing CM-11 and it says successful like a normal flash and when i reboot system, it just boots straight back into recovery...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikkey81:
Did you try to reboot while it was still plugged in?

All I'm trying to do is get your device to stop trying to flash the ota and that adds an additional command. That's why it continues to hop into recovery... Its looking for the stock recovery.

I'm on the hunt right now to see what I can find.

Has to be a command. Let me boot up my laptop, drop into download and see what command i can get through. No adb right?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] onlybob:
Try wiping cache and Dalvik cache and reboot again. Remember that initial boots take longer than other boots. If that didn't work, reflash your Rom. If a no go, re-download it. If it won't boot right, the /boot partition may be corrupted, which should be fixed by reflashing a good kernel.

There are two apps I have used that do this fairly easily. Try either App2SD or Link2SD. Both do the same thing. I also believe AppMonster does, but I've never used it for this purpose. If they say you cannot move an app, it is probably because the MOJO sets the external microSD in a way that it is detected as emulated rather than physical. As I've yet to get a microSD to work at all, I cannot tell what the problem is...I just know from experience on the Acer A700 that -it- is set up so you cannot send apps to the microSD.

My GN3 is the best phone I've ever owned. It does everything I want except what it was originally built to do. I have the absolute worst service. If i flashed a new ROM would that improve the service? I know it did for my RAZR. Also the WIFI goes in and out constantly. Could a new ROM change that also? Any responses or recommendations would be great!

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
The answer to your question sort of depends on info you didn't provide.

What I mean by that is that radio software NEVER changes raw RF signal strength.

Yeah, that's right - never. That is entirely a hardware/antenna thing.

It *can* change things that happen at the radio protocol level - things like tower selection, power output, modulation and coding selection, etc. And I suppose if there are bugs that cause intermittency, those could be due to software/firmware. So you need to distinguish between three different scenarios: (a) problems due simply to poor signal strength, (b) problems that happen even when the signal is strong, or (c) never observing strong signals even when in close proximity to the cell tower or WiFi router**

So... What are the signal strengths you observe (either cell or WiFi) when you have troubles? Report the values in "dBm", not "Signal Bars" - the latter means literally nothing.

And if you observe problems at -90 dBm, there might be nothing wrong with your device (there is very little "fade margin" above the noise floor and all devices will have problems due to weak signals). But if you see problems such as drop-outs when the signal strength is above (more positive) than -70 dBm, that could be either a hardware fault or a software bug.

If you never see signals above -75 dBm (Cell) or -45 dBm (WiFi in close proximity to the router), then you probably have a hardware problem and a ROM update won't change that.

So - your turn. What signal strengths are you seeing?

PS - on my Note3, the Cell signal strength reported in the Android settings app never seems to change so I conclude it isn't working (MJ7 ROM); I use the "RF Signal Tracker" app (Ken Hunt) for that. You can even drive around town and it will later plot on a map the observed signal strength values. That can be useful for determining if you just have weak signals at your home, or if they are weak everywhere. If you see the latter, you know you have a hardware problem.

Perversely, this app doesn't correctly report WiFi signal strengths on the N3 (it works OK on other Android devices I have); but you can use the "WiFi Analyzer" app (farproc) to observe WiFi signals in dBm.

FWIW, my Note 3 observes signals as strong as -35 dBm (1m from the router), and -51 dBm LTE (cell). It is possible that by driving around I might see even stronger cell signals; I haven't tried it yet in the 7 days I've had the N3.

HTH

** note that you could have problems with cell service/mobile data only, WiFi only, or problems with both if you are unlucky (they use separate radios and antennas).
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bodieism:
I'm having issues as well. Never had a problem with the Note 2 , but the 3 likes to constantly drop out of 4G at home. It's odd because I've tested it against my old Droid Razr and they both get around the same signal (-106 dBm vs -105 dBm), however the Razr reliably holds the 4G signal and keeps a fairly consistent dBm reading, whereas the GN3 readings can get worse from time to time even in the same spot. I'm hoping it's software related and they'll fix it with a modem update... MJE didn't help me at all though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bursthead:
Not to mention the poor battery life due to a low signal. I was very fortunate they turned on Band 4, otherwise I be looking at the same battery life I was getting with my iphone 5 around 6 to 12 hours.

I love my note 3, but the signal quality has me rethinking my decision to keep it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
[MENTION=3369082]bodieism[/MENTION]

Your principal trouble is very poor signal. (-105 dBm)

I mean, I get it that individuals aren't going move in order to improve their cell service, and the carrier is unlikely to install a new tower because of a single customer request about poor signal strength.

That only leaves a presumption that handset choice is a consumer option to "fix" a poor signal. (Or repeaters, but that's an expensive solution).

But I would caution that trying to make comparisons of "A vs. B" in areas with terrible reception is fraught with all sorts of methodology and interpretation problems. I can observe > 10 dBm signal strength changes due to orientation and "How I'm holding it" (LOL) changes alone while sitting in one spot on my couch. Imagine that I had an average signal level only 5 dBm above the noise floor - you shouldn't believe a handset comparison I made in that case unless I made it clear that I'd been exhaustive about test conditions.

Simply put, I wouldn't put much stock in undisciplined, anecdotal reports that come from fringe reception areas.

As you noted, the MJE update did nothing for you. But that's not a surprise - no amount of software is going to overcome lack of signal.

Maybe a complaint to Verizon might result in something measurable happening - squeaky wheel and all that. But you will be unlikely to get anything from them if you live in a rural or low population density area.

Take a sec and hit thanks if I helped or if you're in a good mood!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
That app doesn't have a complete tower database, so it just picks the geolocation info seemingly at random (or maybe one per continent). I don't think I have ever seen that app feature work for VZW towers; it might work for GSM networks tho.

I think it relies on public (crowd sourced) data for tower geolocation info, so that particular feature is probably only useful in metro areas and maybe not even then.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bskarpa:
OK thanks bud. I know here around town by my daughter's school which is only like a mile or less away from my house I get awesome signal but here at the house its around -75db give or take.

[MENTION=4360341]bskarpa[/MENTION] what Internet site did you use? (-75 dBm is a pretty decent signal btw)

That app says my tower is 6224 miles away in Croatia. :D Apparently tower numbers are not globally unique (as that record matches the observed tower # I have for my service)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bodieism:
My Droid Razr, Note 2, and my GF's S3 all overcome the lack of signal with no problem at all. You'd think since Samsung can make 2 devices that can maintain a weak 4G signal that their newest phone could do the same, but apparently it can't, whether it be hardware or software related.
