Just dropping by to say thanks, have the deodex rom set up with bobcat theme, Viper mod

Really liking it
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ForevermanRGPC:
OK it looks like I've uninstalled all the Gear stuff and downloaded the S5 gear manager apk from the link but when I go to install it gives me the "problem with parse" message...thoughts?

Did you reboot the phone after you removed the apks?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jdog94:
prob need to manualy move it to system/apps or system/ priv-apps and fix permissions
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Steedent:
which one?

which one should we install... the Odex... or De-Odex???
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] 4shlr:
I did not reboot originally but just removed anything gear again. Rebooted, re downloaded the S5 gear manager and it still gives me the problem parse message. I tried moving to system/app but es file wouldn't let me. Getting a little worried, I reset my gear thinking maybe that will at least re install my original gear manager which it did but then the gear and phone wouldn't connect fully. If I can't get this to work I may just re flash the ROM...

Going back to mje... Android system process is killing my battery...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Chillout2010:
Not sure what gives. I've been running this rom for a few days with no complaints. Well today my phone and my car wouldn't play nice. It usually connects to Bluetooth automatically. Today it showed as connected on my phone but not through my cars display. I repaired the two and it worked. After shutting the car off and going into a store for 20 min I came back out and started my car and again the phone showed paired but the car had nothing. It seems either the rom is acting up or I messed something up through waynam not sure what that could be though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] neyenlives:
9 hours in and still at 61% battery is bad? I only get about 18-20 good hours and I'm completely happy with that.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] 4shlr:
Ok I've tried everything I can think of at this point...I've completely deleted all Gear apps, rebooted, downloaded S5 Gear (from 2 different sources just to be sure I wasn't getting a bad DL) and I still get this message...

Now at this point I can't get my Gear to pair with my phone so I think I'm just going to install by nandroid backup NC2 for now...do I need to wipe before I restore that backup??
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kdizzleh85:
So I am not sure if you have tried resetting your car stereo or deleting some of the saved devices from its memory. Some players only allow so many devices. Mine is 3 and I have had a few phones. Just a suggestion. I had this same issue. Good luck
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Chillout2010:
I will try this a bit later. I don't understand how it suddenly became an issue though. It paired fine for the first few days. Thank you
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] 4shlr:
Update: restored and added all xposed modules except S5 gear and messaging. Just going to leave it alone for a while. Not sure having S5 messaging is worth it at this point. Thanks everyone for the help
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] magnum870:
Yeah that is pretty bad. On MJE with 2 hrs screen on time and 9 total hours unpluged I was usually at 80ish percent. I'm seeing the same thing of Android System eating a good percentage on my battery, but I'll live with it for a while since I'm still getting a decent day out of it.

You guys might want to let the indexing service settle down before doing battery comparisons.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] magnum870:
Been running it since the day it was released (over a week now, right?), pretty sure if the indexing service hasn't settled down yet, it never will. I'm not really complaining. Its a price to pay to live on the "cutting edge", but it definitely has been a drop in life since upgrading.

I am considering installing the MJE radios only to see if that has any effect, because it seems to be the cell process of android system that are holding mine in wakelock....

Is anyone else having blue tooth issues? I was considering going to kk but I bt in the car and don't want issues with it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] PapaDocta:
Yeah it's pretty bad considering wifi and data are off and didn't use the phone all morning not even one phone call!

I have turned off location services and now seems like all back to normal..

Check your battery usage.... Sometimes I see the GPS icon running when it shouldn't. I just close all apps and it stops. So some app stays active and runs down the battery.

No battery issues to report at all. I charge every other day and have since installing this on the 24th.

Mind you I freeze Google search with Google Now being a huge and widely known battery hog, along with VZW location/nav app and turn off location services. I only want my gps on when I need it and I use the Scout Nav app (since the paid version shows speed traps and ticket guns over street lights. :) ) and not Google Maps which I also freeze. I also freeze weather widget as I use eWeather HD. I can get a solid day w/o charge playing tower of saviors/ words with friends for a good 3 hours each. Results vary if I am on the phone or on the net but I generally stay around 22-24 hours w/o a charge.

I also don't use exchange mail as I have my live.com mail sent to my gmail via pop.

If anyone wants a list of frozen apps, I will be glad to PM it to anyone, but keep in mind, I freeze anything I don't use or want running so this might be problematic depending on personal preferences.

flash in odin??

Hey folks,

I"m ready to take the plunge with this build, but I'm a little confused as to the Odin process. The files I've got are :

hltevzw Root Deodex NC2 and

nv900v_kk.firmware.tar.md5.zip

Exactly WHAT am I flashing in Odin and in which section? I don't think I flash the md5.zip file, so I? Am I supposed to flash an extracted porition of that file? Very uncertain here.

THANKS!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] almahix:
Just plunged. After wiping stock on phone, flash decoder then reboot into download. In Odin flash the extracted zip file in the AP. Works like magic!

---------- Post added at 01:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:12 PM ----------

Damned autocorrect. Not decoder, deodex.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jayhammy:
Thanks, but I'm still not getting it, and I'm NOT a noob! What extracted zip file are you flashing in AP? When I extract the firmware.tar file, I get a folder with a bunch of files in it. Using a Mac here so perhaps the files appear differently? Not sure.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Az Biker:
Steps are in OP for further verification. Here's Reader's Digest version :D

Unzip the NV900 and grab the tar.md5 file, put on pc

From 4.3 cust rom and SS 3.71 or earlier

Boot into stock slot (SS)

Wipe (I also wiped in data for fresh start)

Flash NC2 zip (from sdcard)

DON' hit reboot, back arrow twice, hit reboot, choose download

Odin the tar.md5 file in AP/PDA field (Odin step by step in my sig, insert NV900 file not mje file in tutorial)

Uninstall SS 3.65

Install SS 3.72

Install recovery (SS)

Enjoy. This is from memory, but OP has steps as well.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] almahix:
Something is fishy. I wiped, flashed, and odined. When phone restarted it was 4.2.2, but all of my apps and settings persisted, as if I didn't wipe. This isn't normal, is it?

Edit: NVM. I re-wiped with advanced wipe and reflashed deodex and it is all restarting fresh from Google.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jayhammy:
THANKS! This was very helpful! I appreciate it very much.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] BossJ:
I don't believe reboot to recovery actually functions like that.

Just reboot the phone and see if your SS splash screen pops up.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] popkurn611:
Actually in 3.65, if you hit reboot to recovery it will restart the phone to safestrap recovery without having to wait for the splash screen. For whatever reason its not working in 3.72.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Az Biker:
If you're still on 4.3 the 3.72 SS may be wonky. Revert back to SS 3.65 (as the OP says you need to be on 3.65 when making the switch to 4.4.2)

Looks to me like you may have adjusted your DPI? Try returning it to stock (480) and see if it comes up properly.

If this is the problem, you could use an xposed module called app settings to adjust your dpi on a per app basis so you can still have things smaller and not do it system-wide.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Hitman3984:
My battery life in the first day has been amazing.

I unplug my phone before bed and put it by the bed for an alarm.

On 4.3 I would drain about 6-8% battery over night. With the new files it drained all of 2% in about 8 hours.

The only issue I'm having personally is, besides all of xposed doesn't work I'm getting a weird delay when it comes to text notifications.

Basically My sound notification goes off and roughly 5 seconds later the phone vibrates and THEN the text appears.

The only thing I've changed is I've gone to Nova Launcher since I couldn't get the 4x5 module to work from xposed.

Anyone having this issue?

I use ringo lite to set tones and notifications and handcent for texting.

Just updating my Bluetooth issues. I deleted all accounts through my cars bluetooth. I repaired and it connected even after a restart of the car. I haven't been back out in the car to see if it stayed that way. But hours after doing this I'm inside my house and my car is not even on and my phone still shows paired to the car... I don't think the phone is disconnecting from the Bluetooth as it should. Even after a battery pull it still shows paired.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jdog94:
to move it to system/app using es ....es will have to be it root mode (its in the settings) and you will have to toggle it for R/O to R/W

i use root explorer so i can give you any clearer details for es
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] 4shlr:
I wondered about the R/O to R/W option in ES [MENTION=2401545]jdog94[/MENTION] thanks for that heads up!...I did have root mode enabled but not that rewrite setting. I assume I should move the files and rename them before I try to install correct?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jdog94:
set it to r/w then move the files then fix the permissions they shoud be rw/r/r if i remember right .........not sure what you are renaming.....and once you put files in system/app or system/priv-apps you dont install just reboot................if old files are there with same name rename them to .bak or delete them...i always rename incase i need them back

I actually download all roms directly to my phone.

Not sure why it's not showing up on your phone after transferring though.

Edit. If you are looking for the rom file in ss recovery there's a option to switch between internal and ext. sd. You just have to tap the storage option towards the top to switch between the 2.

This is amazing! Thanks!!!

I do have one question on something I'm not completely clear on. Will I need to install the S5 MMS app to resolve the issue of losing mobile data when wifi is turned on? I'm also unable to make calls when I turn on wifi.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] droidstyle:
I must say after some heavy debloating this build is pretty solid.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jdog94:
you dont have to install s5 mms for any reason

when on wifi you can make call just like normal

you dont lose mobile data when on wifi ...it basically turn data off when on wifi so you are not using data but that does not effect your mobile sig as far as calling

---------- Post added at 10:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 AM ----------

you want to share a list of what you debloated
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DrPhant0m:
DutchDogg, I'm honored by your presence.

Yes, if you see post 1045, in the quote (from myself)... I mentioned that I did change the DPI to 320, and I went into detail about how I arrived there. I also mentioned that I do have xposed and the App Settings module installed, and in use.

If you also follow the link that I left to a thread specific to the custom DPI vs S-View issue... I mentioned there that I do have xposed and App Settings installed... in addition to "S-View All the Covers" which bypasses the necessity for the IC chip, and goes on the magnetic switch alone to activate the S-View window.

In further news... I got my hands on an S-View cover... and with the edits I made to the com.sec.android.sviewcover module in App Settings, the S-View window was back to the proper DPI and color... with no weird artifacting as I had seen before by placing a magnet over the switch. I wonder if the IC chip in the S-View cover is what fixed the issue ( meaning the xposed module doesn't work quite right ) or if the power of the magnet matters.

Any input?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DutchDogg54:
I'm glad you got it working. From my little understanding of the s-view covers and magnets, I'd have to think the magnet being used to trigger the effect could have an impact, though I don't know why it would have caused the systematic artifacts you saw. I'd think it'd be more of a radial shape radiating out from the spot closest to the magnet, rather than impacting the whole screen like you had going there. So, that being said, it must have something to do with the module or the IC chip.
