Hello everybody, I just had my 2nd reboot today, the red guy saying modem fail, I did a clean install followed instructions to the T, anyone has had the same issue?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jbarresi19:
I mean I don't use the hot spot mod plus the sview thing is no big deal really...but besides that I can't find one issue....much smoother than v2 and v2 was smooth

Edit: Actually the one thing I haven't been able to get to work since v2 was the water color effect on lockscreen...but probably something I'm doing wrong.

Hello all just a simple question.how can I install the Google launcher ???

I went to the play store and it says it's incompatible with my phone

Correction The old Google launcher installs but the update does not ...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ycats:
You'll have to do a Google Search for the Google Now Launcher.apk file.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] wojo797:
Great. ..I am so glad I upgraded to kitkat...I can't download anything..I mean nothing ...I just redid everything in Odin wiped in Stock recovery ..rerouted and installed twrp. I still can't download anything on a tw kitkat rom.

Other than that I like your rom..I just unfortunately can't use it lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] JonSCSL:
Is that you can't download anything to your external sd?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] wojo797:
External and internal
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] JonSCSL:
Ok I have had that too. For the external you need to copy this platform.xml file to your etc/permissions/ folder.Then reboot. https://www.dropbox.com/s/bqgsz2dcezdmyr3/platform.xml

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] wojo797:
Neither one of them worked...folder mount just applied a patch...The xml file didn't work either...tried changing permissions manually in root explorer... I use dolphin ..chrome can download to scarf
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] wisnia99:
I had the same issue and than i had to flash and wipe all the data and cache use TWRP advance wipe all just leave External SD and see if it helps

Nope, just system tweaks.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] AndroidDevel:
I too can confirm I have full use v3 alone... sms works, hotspot works... however as soon as I install the comadose hotspot allows me to connect but not traffic is passed through the phone... I however hadn't seen the claim that sms stopped working so I did not test that. I do know while comadose was installed the 3minit was not working.. but didn't test it prior... (Once I get it reinstalled fresh I'll let ya know).

I am currently installing v3 fresh. Once that is complete I'll install the quick fix patch (step 3) from the OP. I plan on running that until the rest is fixed.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] TrofeoSC:
Sacs, would it be possible to have something to revert the pull down buttons from S5 to the stock settings. The reason I ask is that the theme I use will not work with the S5 buttons but will with the stock buttons.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Ali1353:
Why don't you go with version 3? If you flashed both versions then the only thing I can thick of is the recovery, are you using Philz or TWRP recovery, I am not a big fan on TWRP since I've always had issue with it when I flashed on S3 , S4 and now Note 3.

Everything on V3 works so far (do not flash ComaDose) and you should be fine. I believe Sacs is going to fix some of the issues but Bluetooth is not one of them since its working. You can wait for the next update so you won't have to repeat these steps again.

I love comadose very much but I rely on Hotspot more than comadose speeding up the phone. I installed small fixes after V3 and I'm very happy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Rx8Driver:
Yeah exactly same here! Here's my problem. I have 2 Roms I love already so I set them all up the way I like and made nandroid backups of them, k3 and fre3, BUT I made the backups in philz 6.19.3 so when I put twrp 2.7.0.1 in I can't restore those backups without switching back to a cwm based recovery first UNLESS I use twrp mode to make the backups in philz but that means restoring each one and then making a new nandroid for both so they can be restored from twrp! Ugh! Pain in the arse! Smh... But as it stands if something happens with sacs rom (and let's face it I ain't been having good luck so far with ANY version I've tried yet!) Then I don't have any backups I can restore without changing recoveries first! Which could mean a trip to download mode and a visit with odin. Not a huge deal but inconvenient to say the least! Soooo... I'm gonna make a twrp mode backup of at least this rom (fre3) so I can change recoveries then load up 2.7.0.1 and see what happens with sacs.....I love what I see but every time I try nothing seems to work right and it'll be mad disappointing to do all this work and it not function. :/ but I'll let you all know what happens!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kennyfool:
What kernel is this ROM running? I had to revert to V2 because I couldn't go 2mins without a random reboot/boot loop combo. So I figure it must be something with the kernel since I wiped everything like 5 times before installing
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cherylbaker:
You dont need to yell.. just wondering though why? Dirty flashing is one thing but those instructions seem to go beyond that.. i was just wondering why.. is there something with nab that requires all these hoops to be jumped through.

I have not tripped knox and therefore have not installed a rom on my note 3 cause it seemed like a lot of people were having problems and now with nab it seems to be worse. Just wondering why..

small fixes

Gentlemen I'm having trouble downloading the small fixes file I get an error on media fire where the captcha doesn't load?! I've tried everything. Is there another place to try to download that file from?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] freeza:
Dude, there is no logical reason one would need to wipe their entire internal storage just for a ROM that is based on Stock software. You won't have any problems at all. To expect people to obliterate their entire internal storage just to install a ROM is ridiculous. If Samsung can get away with pushing OTA updates, and even flashing full on TAR images without wiping your internal storage, then there is no reason you should have to nuke your entire phone contents just to run a ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cherylbaker:
Exactly why I was asking freeza.. This makes no sense. I mean seriously something must be wrong if one has to wipe their internal memory to install a rom. If something is that wrong than it needs to be fixed. I know I am far from an expert on how these things work but I thought the internal memory was kinda like storage. . I know that's where things are sometimes put when downloaded or whatever.

I just keep seeing all these crazy hoops people say to jump through to install a rom and it seems to me they are unnecessary but thought maybe I was missing something

Sent from my SM-N900P using Xparent Purple Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kennyfool:
I don't think that it HAS to be done that way. I think its setup that way to avoid installation problems(which, in most cases is the main reason for problems). I may be wrong though, but that's my theory lol

I would love to know of a scenario where one would have 'problems' with this ROM in particular from not wiping their internal storage?

Google, Samsung, and every other OEM out there get away with pushing updates just fine with no 'problems'

Is there something this ROM does, that the stock ROM doesn't, that relies on having an empty internal storage?

Enlighten us as to what problems could arise from not doing such a drastic procedure?

No need in my opinion for bickering on how to install, I'm sure if an OP said to stand on one foot and put your hand in your mouth before flashing, people would do it, in the end, it works and is running great...freeza, sac, and rlmiller, you all do great work regardless of the process.

I want to say things are running great with no issues that have come up. Installed V3 without internal storage wipe, I never do that. I think the key to flawless install, at least in my trial and error and there was a lot seeing as I am new to samsung, is to have your zip on external and reboot recovery after wipe. Nothing ever goes wrong this way....for me at least.

A couple images on the performance I'm getting.
