Hey guys, what do you think is the best CivZ's Kat kernel to use on the N900W8 (CDN)? -

Custom roms offer many customizations that aren't offered in stock roms, such as under and overclocking, ui improvements, too numerous to mention.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mixxy:
Partly right there tkjeeper!

Custom ROMS don't offer that option on their own. Under and over clocking is KERNEL specific =) but the others such as user inter face improvement, customizations, battery saving scripts, updated system apps, and debloated software are definitely a great plus
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tkjeeper:
True mixxy, that being said, I am still stock with xposed, wanam, and many other mods to the stock setup. But what can I say, I like tw! Heck I even have the pen pop up modded! Lmfao!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] JagGN3:
Thanks for the info guys!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mixxy:
Xposed has a plethora of modifications that allow you to modify your system without the lack of a fallback option. Its completely plug and play, making it a safe and useful alternative to flashing custom roms if all you want to do is customize the look of your phone.

For instance, take a look at my setup right now =)

The CivZ KatTurbine kernel is bugged at Rev 1.1.

Have you gotten Synapse to work with it? All I get are cancelled settings "Synapse Boot Cancelled". I also got a few lock ups and freezes after using this kernel on X-Note 8.0

On KatEngine 2.0 I also experienced reboots too, what could be the problem? I heard someone said the NFC/Wifi fixes causes the reboots? I have yet to see any people complain that that is that problem....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tkjeeper:

Custom kernels are causing some issues (not related to our phone, kernel based). You can try stock for stability.

Updated OP
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mixxy:
whats the word big bird?

Ps. I'm not having any issues with Civato KatTurbine 1.1 at all. Battery life is amazing and kernel is extremely smooth for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nicholaschum:
[MENTION=4586193]Oogar[/MENTION], WiFi is a no-go for me on stock.

Retried on fresh custom ROM install, everytime Wi-Fi is activated, a huge lag spike occurs.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mixxy:
Those are the same issues I had on stock when Oogar and I were testing the stock kernel. Not sure whats changed since then but there must be a reason he has posted it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] gaganmohal:
Thanks alot.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Oogar:
I think the reason was it was 4:30 in the morning and I totally forgot why we didn't use it in the first place.

Ignore everything :D

Still recommend Civato's kernel for now, albeit a little buggy for some.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tkjeeper:
Fwiw, I've been stock since the past weekend, and no issues really, I had 1 random reboot, and the only issue I notice is that voice control doesn't work for taking pictures, or playing music with stock music app. Really quite minor. At least that's for me. Although I do have power saving enabled.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DrawnToLife:
Not sure if this is related to anything or not, but I can't download apps from the Play Store.. getting error 920. I've rebooted three times and have deleted all of the play store app data..

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jon3sh:
Any major changes between the two Kernels rev 1.1 & 1.2? I am running 1.1 right and no random boots at all. They said don't fix if it ain't broke :) Curious what the diff are. Both kernels from OP links. Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DrawnToLife:
I'm hesitant to try it right now, but .. I might flash it because I don't like all these random reboots :L

Edit: Wait, random reboots would be from the kernel right, not the rom? Do you have to reflash the rom when you flash a kernel? S: I have no idea what I'm doing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jon3sh:
Yes some Kernels causing it and not the actual rom. If you already flashed stock kitkat 4.4.2 just flash xnote on top. Just make sure you follow all steps from OP. I am running CivZ 1.1 kernel right now and no reboots at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DrawnToLife:
Yeah so I went ahead and flashed Rev 1.2.. I'll report back later. For some reason, my phone feels a little slower, but I think I'm just being an idiot. I'm on X-Note already, so I just flashed the Kernel on top of my old kernel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jon3sh:
Just leave it the way it is don't change any settings or tweaks let kernel settle first.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DrawnToLife:
Kay I just got a reboot after 8 hours uptime. Also nor getting LTE anymore.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DrawnToLife:
So I got some more reboots and my phone froze once today. Is there a better kernel?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mixxy:
EVERYONE HAVING REBOOT ISSUES: PLEASE READ

The issue is not in the kernel. I am running 1.1 and have had ZERO reboots since installing. There is something wrong with the way the installation has been carried out on your devices. I would recommend the following:

1. Reflash the Stock Mexican KitKat build

2. Root

3. Flash Recovery (TWRP Recommended)

4. Install X-Note - choose to install no kernel and QUE INSTALLATION OF WiFi fix and Kernel in the same installation

5. Profit!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DrawnToLife:
So basically just start over? Can I still use CWM? Also, how do you queue installs?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nicholaschum:
I'm sticking with CWM, and even so, I have no problems now even after installing the kernel 1.1. It was a luck install like it feels like working after I reinstalled so many times
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jon3sh:
Love rev 1.1 never get random reboots since I flashed it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mixxy:
Yes. Yes you can, but I recommend TWRP to be able to que installation of multiple zips.

Just wanted to say a special THANKS to the OP for this! I successfully upgraded my Rogers Note 3 to 4.4. I was previously on Jedi with 4.3, but was experiencing very sluggish UI (benchmarks where fantastic, just not the overall experience)

My Knox was already tripped to 0x1 before I even started this, so my previous method of rooting and custom recover must have tripped it. Oh well, I dont plan on sending in for repair any time soon.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tkjeeper:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nicholaschum:
Nope, it will make your KNOX 0x2, the phone is scared of the number 7, as 7 ate 9.

JK.

Your bootloader doesn't change, you can run any kind of software on the insecure bootloader and it won't change KNOX status :)

New is always better. Flasholics always wants the latest version :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DrawnToLife:
Just out of curiosity, how do I go about updating? Do I have to reflash stock, or can I just wipe userdata/(dalvik) cache in CWM and then flash up?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jon3sh:
You don't need to re-flash rom again.

1.Back up your apps with Titanium BU.

2. Using twrp do a full wipe cache, dalvik, system and data.

3. Flash X-Note 9.0.. In Aroma installer choose no Kernel.

4. Flash Wifi and NFC fix

5. Flash CivZ kernel rev 1.2

6. Reboot system.

7. After setup restore apps.

Enjoy!!!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Gravol:
Update* flashed this on and then flashed xnote 8.0 and did the wifi fix...Knox....0x0 :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Oogar:
Always read the OP! It's there.

You of course don't need to flash it, and the Rogers OTA is reportedly "coming soon". This is strictly for people who like to jump ahead of the curve and see what's new. it also gave us the ability to flash custom 4.4.2 roms from the n9005 thread. If you are happy with your phone and don't want to mess with it, just leave it. If you are a flashoholic and like to be on the bleeding edge then flash away!

It's not a huge upgrade in terms of features, but it is a lot of under the hood work that makes the phone feel a lot more snappy. But again a good portion of us here performed this because we like to be on custom roms, and the only way to do so is to flash 4.4.2 stock (as outlined in the OP) and then go from there.

I most definitely have had GPS issues with this phone, but actually its been better since updating to 4.4.2. Try a gps fix app like

New to the android learning as much as I can.. If it doesn't are there any suggestions as to a fix for this? been searching and tried little things to no avail...

3. Download the WIFI/NFC fix.

4. Place files on SD card. Some roms are known to wipe your internal storage.

5. Boot into TWRP Recovery and wipe system, data, cache, and dalvik cache.

6. Install custom rom, kernel, and WIFI/NFC fix, then reboot.
