Just backup the apks you have removed onto your sdcard, and keep a copy of aroma file manager on there... so if you are away from a computer.. you can easily sort it out anytime :)

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Guojun:
When debloating a ROM, you guys only delete the .apk in the system/app and system/priv-app? Wouldn't it be cleaner if you would also delete the associated lib files? And how about the folders in data/data (I've only read about that one, where can I find that folder, is it even there on a fresh ROM zip?)?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rayman95:
It's more easy to delete only apk in system:app and priv-app than remove libs because you must know which lib goes with which apk. I remove some like shealth.....in data/data it's the apps included in the rom and installed with market, you don't have it in the rom.zip
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Guojun:
Ok, so I guess the leftover libs are not interfering with the ROM. Thus it doesn't hurt to leave them there (besides the storage space they take up).
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rayman95:
I would like to remove associate libs and apk but it's impossible, there is around 900 files only for libs. It's hurt only for the good work......you have the useless fonts to remove but first you need to know exactly which ones are useless
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Guojun:
I noticed that system apps can not be greenified, so I opt to only have the apps as system apps which are not available through the play store. Are there any advantages in leaving an apk in the ROM.zip as opposed to installing it manually from the play store?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rayman95:
no
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sheeezy:
Advantage:

You can uninstall app at any given time without fumbling in system folder. Just like any other app via launcher, very simple, easy and fast.

You can greenify non system apps. Say you have chrome integrated in your ROM (in system folder), then you can't greenify it. (Without donation addon).

In my opinion, I would delete every single app in system folder when I also can get that app via google play store.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] firasusman:
NF1 .. is it good to release ?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] lvnatic:
Why don't you guys just use titanium backup to uninstall stuff?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] _alexndr:
[MENTION=4257459]firasusman[/MENTION], it is not N9005XX as I expect.. :( there is only XXUENE3 for Russia (same changelist as ND3/5/6)

BTW

I do not understand why Sammy not releases new XX firmwares while still releasing new ZH, ZT, VJ, DX versions...

I hope that when this happens - changelist will surprise us :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] firasusman:
hope so.

thanks mate.

Going back and forth between different roms but in the end I always come back to this rock stable build. Thank you very much for your work!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tkari4:
I need a little help. :o

Because the shutter sound option is enabled in my Rom, but I can't turn it off.

It's always On.:(

Is it OK in _alexndr's ND6 bulid ?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Guojun:
There's a toggle in the options of the camera app, did you turn it to off?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] peped94:
hope to see an update from this rom. maybe NF3 ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tkari4:
Yes, but if I press the Off option it stays on On.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Guojun:
If you have Xposed installed, then turn off the shutter sound in Wanam Xposed.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Kamy:
Wanam xposed changes the sound format so that the system cannot recognize it it's kinda deleting it but in this case system keeps running to find the sound and results in wakelock although it is not major wakelock but still.

I love stock rom. Specially deodexed stock rom. Due to my knowledge i al ways end up using stock odex rom. Coz its always given my needs. In your next update please include XTC please. That was Philippine Base. Wahehehe.

Anyway one quick question.

So this rom is fully stocked right? Nothings change. Can you make a step by step tutorial how to make my stockrom here to become deodexed? I already have my stock (from sammobile.com) named N9005XXUEND6_N9005OLBEND1_N9005XXUENC2_HOME.tar and i want to make it deodexed one.

Can you add the hidden quick toggles (smart network etc.) in the final release ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tkari4:
Why do you need them, because they don't work.

You can turn them on, or off but no function.

:confused:

---------- Post added at 03:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 PM ----------

Useful, but you must have enabled 4G from your provider.

For example I have 200 mb 4G in my contract. (every month 200 mb boosted download)

"for more I must pay"

So, I can't use it for big files...

:crying:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sheeezy:
Why won't they work ?

I thought these are features which are simply hidden but at the same time fully working.

And if smart network would work, that would be awesome, cause it would save some battery (in theory).

tested on my own N9005 with a proof .. and working properly!

... REMINDER !! Do a 2 times (2x) reboot of a phone before it settles
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] lvnatic:
What's the fuss with this new modem? Any noticeable improvement on ... anything?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sheeezy:
After flashing your Modem I can't access my phone anymore.

I had PIN unlock prior and after flashing it didn't recognize my password anymore.

Even my nandroid backups can't save me as the modem persist and I even tried flashin NE6 back

but 1st I can't check if its flashed cause I can't access settings 2nd still stuck at lockscreen.

Crap
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] SERGiooooo:
lol I was in your shoes 2 weeks ago. If you have your Samsung account logged into your phone there is a solution.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sheeezy:
Tbh this Samsung crapware is the first thing I delete instantly after I flash a ROM.

So no sammy account for me.

I can definately tell, that my problem lies in the Modem as I just have flashed back NE6 and my passw for the lockscreen is accepted by my Note 3. Based on this I guess no NF2 Modem for me as long as _alexndr hasn't put out a modem by himself.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] stitoo:
[MENTION=3778222]Vanto[/MENTION]

Tell me step by step how to upload a new modem?

Loading a modem as the AP. Unfortunately, the phone gets the old modem

I used this walkthrough :

"Install with ODIN only, you need to be on stock kernel and use "Triangle away" to set status to official andthen you will be able to update the modem"
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] SERGiooooo:
You only need to remove the pin security before flashing the new modem.

If you had your account on Samsung you would have been able to unlock it from the Web.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Vanto:
No, no as AP!! You'll have to flash it via PC Odin as CP as I did.

Also don't forget the 2x reboot the phone
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] stitoo:
You were right. Did upload the CP. Thank's :good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] JustArchi:
Nah, I'm still at S3, just visited this thread :).

Note 3 is too big for me :silly:.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] civato:
No need for this fix in NB3, samsung fixed that problem in the ramdisk of the kernel of NB3. So if you add this permission fix you will get 2 externalSD cards shown in some file explorers like ES.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] _alexndr:
Thanks :) BTW - it's good idea to use my rebuilt updater-script (#1) in your ArchiKitchen :)

Maybe you're right, but not 100% ;) At this moment - without this fix - some apps still have problem to write external storage. Even Titanium Backup! (I re-tested it today on pure stock installed via Odin, only rooted)

-----------------------

Anyway - In DEODEXED_v3 I TOTALLY REBUILT all system permissions!

I abandoned any ready to use, OBSOLETE patterns and starded from ZERO :) More info (especially for Devs / Chefs) -> #1

Excuse but this flashable zip and the media rw fix are compatible with other Tw Roms NB3 of course some of my apps are not operating well and I have a feeling that I need the media rw fix....

EDIT

Also the v3 flashable zip.....what does it do? :P
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] _alexndr:
Should be ok :) By the way - you will update (probably will fix) all permissions in your ROM :D

This FIX (zip) should be safe in all KitKat based N9005 custom ROM's, but DO NOT flash it on different models (other than N9005) due to specific mount point !!!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] sephkateno:
Thank you my devise is N9005 on page 4 you uploaded a flashable fix for v1 by request of Vanto which one should I flash?

This? N9005XXUENB3_fix_for_v1.zip

Or this? N9005XXUENB3_UPDATE_to_v3.zip

The second I pressume does have the the media RW fix right?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Vanto:
Tried 'em both (v2+ rw fix and v3 without the fix) but I get a feeling only TiBu is fixed and running as it supposed to !

.. but since I'm currently running v3_as is (without the rw_fix) I'm still getting some problems with some apps

The thing is there still some apps (like FB, Flashify, G_Drive etc) that don't allow to save any file on sd_card (internal memory) and

many other apps that can be configured to save a file on extSdCard (external microSD card)

As I understand (correct me if I'm wrong) this was a known issue on KK 4.4.2 firmware and kernel related but should be fixed by Samsung in NB3 (latest FW)

... but it's not a case (fix) here too!

always on latest TWRP _ just for the record

Tried several NB3 custom ROMs (x-Note, Crash, JackyWay's etc) same thing in all! Was hopping gonna be fixed in this ROM, but obviously it's not

... please don't get me wrong ... just making an observation !

Otherwise 5* for the idea and fixing permissions and de-odexing a stock ROM for us N-9005 users :good::highfive:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] soloilmeglio:
hi mate superb work to check all stock fw permissions...

I'm curious to see what are the differences...

Inviato dal mio SM-N9005 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Vanto:
as I understand the corect way is v2 + rw_fix or just v3 which has the fix implemented

No, it isn't necessary in case of update MY builds (except change of CSC)

Bootloader - not necessary (no advantages)

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] _alexndr:
Of course, ROM base is FNF4, another small mistake in zip file name and ROM info in Aroma ;)

I'm currently away from home, I'll change the name and ROM info in the evening. But you can download and install currently available file anyway, it is only small name mistake as I mentioned above
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] lvnatic:
So i flashed the nf2 modem via Odin 3.07, it said it was a succes, the phone rebooted and then I manually rebooted it two more times and my baseband version is still nb1. I flashed the modem via the PDA option in Odin, all the other options (bootloader, phone, csc, ums) are greyed out and cant be clicked.

The phone works normally after the attempt to flash, no softbrick etc

So how can I correctly flash the modem? Im aware that this is a noob question so im sorry for it but im not very familiar with how odin works, mostly had nexus devices before.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] SERGiooooo:
shutdown your N3 don't restart it and boot directly in download mode
