Gotcha, it would be nice to freeze/uninstall it without the collateral consequences. Ah, well. I'm going to check out xprivacy.

My question was only partially directed at you but mostly a general question. I definitely understand wanting to limit the amount of running apps, but what's crazy to me is when people start freezing all sorts of system apps/processes that they have no idea how they function but they figure if its running in the background, then its inhibiting performance and eating battery.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Flying_Hellfish:
Maybe I missed it somewhere but did VZW enable sms over WiFi in this leak? I have little to no signal at work (almost constantly says no service) but I am on WiFi. I would have several messages a day that I would have to resend but now in 2 days I haven't had one failed sms message.

I suppose that no service could be a false indication but before I installed the leak if it said no service I couldn't sms to save my life.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] fletch33:
have you tried using the latest Hangouts v2.1.076 to handle both chat and sms and see if that works?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Flying_Hellfish:
Maybe I'm just getting more dipping in and out of coverage now then I was before so I'm not noticing them being delayed.

Yes. I'm on that version and it still doesn't work. I've looked through the settings and have found nothing.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] fletch33:
i didnt have any data to support but thought it was worth a shot.i use a GV number and can send text from my laptop, tablet or phone as well as receive them. that would definitely work for you.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] saddog5523:
There's nothing in there that pertains to SMS via WiFi.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DutchDogg54:
Yeah, that wont be a feature of our CDMA carrier anytime soon but you can use Hangouts to chat over wifi only - it's not an SMS and the person would have to have hangouts, but it's something. Hopefully they wouldn't mind having an extra app if it means they can communicate with you at work.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] saddog5523:
Yes, chatting via SMS over a WiFi connection would be awesome. Hopefully they will implement something of the sort soon.

Awesomesauce!! Okay, one of you nice pro's help me out, I've seen a couple people post about how to revert back to 4.3 and I was very unclear as to how to do this. I know my way around ODIN, I just can't afford to brick this phone. Can anyone give me a brief play-by-play please? I don't want to go to kitkat unless I know that I can do this. I'm a store manager at vzw and my phone is on loan from Samsung for another month possibly less, I want to return in without them the wiser. Thanks in advance.

Nate, you rock my friend, you've always been such a beast when it comes to making sure us vzw folk have what we need to make our phones amazing. Thanks again. And thanks to everyone else that contributed, tested, and spent sleepless nights making this a reality. Much appreciated.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DutchDogg54:
Easily done, my friend.

1) Make sure you have an md5 checked MJE odin tar file (can be downloaded from my thread linked in my signature)

2) Shut down the phone and enter download mode & Odin the MJE Tar file. (Directions in the thread I mentioned above)

3) Done.

This works so easily because the tar file includes all the important pieces of the puzzle to go back to 4.3 and MJE. Enjoy your kitkat!

So has there been any talk of being able to run a custom kernel at least on this?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] SirBindy:
The bootloader is still locked, so of course not.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rclar144:
Good question about Kernel. It would be nice having an option! Loved the devil 2 on my previous note 2!

?N3.....4.4.2Kitkat?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] neyenlives:
My understanding is that there are things left open in this rom that might allow kexec use. We had it on the GS3 even with a "locked bootloader". Worked GREAT.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DutchDogg54:
In theory, [MENTION=2147836]SirBindy[/MENTION] is correct, we won't be able to run a conventional kernel where it replaces the stock one due to the locked bootloader, but kernel modules are enabled on this leak which allows for Kexec - which is a lot like safestrap in that it allows for an alternate kernel to be booted. This is a long and arduous process though and only a few people have the brains for it...we might get it at some point but the chances are still low.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] SirBindy:
While kexec MAY prove useful... As of right now, no custom kernels on a locked Note 3. You need a developer edition. Period.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] BossJ:
Actually... there is a exploit in this for KEXEC, which allows custom kernels.

---------- Post added at 09:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 PM ----------

Correct. HOWEVER, this is the first time we've had this option. So.. give our dev's sometime... There has been a lot of development with this leak and there's a lot of awesome stuff ahead.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] neyenlives:
This is why I am asking. I understand this rom has kernel accessibility that no other rom has had yet, and was told kexec may be an option now because of it. Just wondering if anyone had heard of any progress.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] stargzrr11:
I don't think so. I bought the card and just put it in the phone. It worked in 4.3...

I'm going to reformat it and try again... Worst case I'll format it fat32 and see if that works.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] BeansTown106:
thanks a ton appreciate it a bunch and i know [MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION] does as well :)

the 4.3 bootloader has different tables its looking for in the boot.img and it fails at certain knox related parts :/ [MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION] could explain the actual issue on this better than i could

from what i have read it was a kitkat think not entirely sure if it was just kitkat in general or samsun kitkat. but ya i included it and did it via the platform.xml edit, actually did it on the tmobile s5 first thats what made me think to do it here as well :)

yes, its actually better to be on nc2 than mi9 as nc2 is the most open build on any note 3. well out it this way this build is a gift in gold wrapping :)

we can use any custom made kernel module with this rom. certain kernel modules can be made for a variety of different things. #1 being kexec(big task tho), #2 exfat type modules, raid type modules. literally anything that can be made as a compatible module we can use :) this leak is just to good to be true lol.. we got VERY VERY lucky getting this leak and thats why me, hashcode, other devs will say do not ever take an ota as this build is the only chance we will have to even possibly run aosp on a retail note3 as well as other things.

ya its basically make u be able to use the built in tether like u would foxfi or something else

come tright to this the firmware package u flash after will update the rest

awesome let us know how it goes i know

kingo v1.18 is the one that works fine on mje :) had to find it myself the other day lol.

ya i will upload modems now :) unless dutchdogg did ??

yes its possible but not at the moment.. like dutchdogg said its a very tedious process and thankfully the one guy who has accomplished this on other device's aka [MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION] is with us :good::cool::highfive: but i dont think it has ever been done on a qualcomm device he can correct me if im wrong, so give it some time and he will inform us of the situation etc. but NEVER Take an OTA Never!!!!!!!! We have literally been given gold in the form of this leak.. things no other note 3 has even had or seen

kernel modules even activated (not on any other note3, especially not on kitkat)

selinux permissive (not on any other note3, especially not on kitkat)

insecure kernel modules (BIG!! not on any newer based flagship literally not even old s3 builds were insecure GOLD! = Possible Kecec and many other modules can be made)

ability to downgrade for rooting purposes incase u loose root or want 4.3

i know there is more but those 4 are seriously GOLD lol

thats it??!?!?

ps- sorry guys have been out of town for a day or so so havent been able to keep up with the thread bbut im back around if i missed any questions or comments to me i am sorry about that. and ur more than welcome to ask agaiin now :)

Also thanks for the donations/thanks i have recieved i appreciate it a ton :D :highfive:

Is your card a SanDisk? I'm on exfat with my 64gb and it's running fine on the deodexed rom. But I do have to admit this is my 3rd card,they had to send me replacements. I went through two on my s3. One of the signs was I had to reformat it often. But as of right now mine is working. I'll double check in the morning and transfer a 5gb file to make sure.

Edit : Never mind you guys are talking about the DE edition. My bad.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Thepooch:
Yes [MENTION=4477763]DavidFlory[/MENTION] has the DE issues fairly wrapped up in a nutshell except for Google play movies and TV freezing after 8 or 10 seconds. All the other options for screen security are grayed out except for pin or password so they are completely nonfunctional it doesn't allow you to set the 2 that are not grayed you can set them but it doesn't take effect swipe to unlock remains. Granted that there are more things broken that will appear later. This is using [MENTION=3357040]Imoseyon[/MENTION] 's lean kernel for the N900V.

Not quite... A stock unmodified 4.4 kernel will not work with the DE regardless of what version the DE is actually on.

Lean Kernel works (it is a 4.4 kernel), the difference is that lean kernel is compatible with the the 4.3 version of TWRP.

I'm kinda curious why the 4.4 version of TWRP doesn't work on the DE while the other versions do. If this worked I wonder if the stock kernel would work.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] LillieBennett:
I thought that TWRP is more paired with the bootloader than the kernel.

my experience for the leak....

1). was rooted&romed but returned to stock because I lost hope and was looking at the M8 :rolleyes:

2). A miracle happened :angel: thank you soon much dev community!

3). Rooted though kingapp 1.1.6

Retail verizon note 3, then downloaded deodex, then used the stable safestrap , and installed the smallest rom that worked for the temporary transition, .. booted in to recovery and wiped the stock slot twice just to make sure. Installed the 4.4.2 deodex, the booted to download mode, I then used odin 3.7 or something, did firmware, all went smoothly. . Phone rebooted up and running, I did not freeze or delete NOTHING. No need to at this point unless you know what it is. The deodex version said it was modded to begin with. Any hoo... my phone is working fine, 4g +3g is working better than before, it transitions faster. . I think it's the best modem yet. Also I have a 64gb sd card and it works absolutely fine. .
