This sounds a nice rom. Still need to wait for unlimited tethering and sd fix. Can't live without these. :) Good job effotless, looking forward for future enhancement in this Rom.

Unlimited tethering works fine from version 6.0+....sd card works great also(using a 64 gig).

They were referring to my omissions of those mods in REV8.. NF9 had some changes and caused some issues with how things normally work. An 8.1 update will re add these.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Misterjunky:
re: 8.1 update

Perhaps you can do a couple more things before you update to 8.1,

it would really be of great help to most everyone here.

#1: add the extended power menu

#2: remove only the obvious bloatware

Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Admiral2145:

Yes
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Vegasden:
1. I use Wanam to get the expanded power menu.

2. What may be bloatware to you might be useful to others. I just use Titanium to rid myself of apps I don't want.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Megaflop666:
Or Gravity Box and Uninstaller pro work great as well. I clear all that useless crap out, its like a nice AOSP when I'm done with tw features. :thumbup:

I haven't had time to test, but I did read on another thread that they did just that and it worked.

I don't know how they implemented it, but there are definitely changes in some core Android files.

re: bloatware

That's why i said "Obvious Bloatware" which mean only the bloatware

which sticks out like a sore thumb and hardly anyone needs or uses.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sacky73:
Does this mean that I have to flash NF9 bootloader or can I just flash the ROM after I update my phone to NF9. I am currently on NF4 and was going to wait but I want to try this ROM. This will be only my second time flashing a custom ROM. Mind you, I have read all the instructions so far but I just want to be clear.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Misterjunky:
re: updating

Start from scratch for best results and avoid a lot of issues like

bootloops, getting stuck on samsung startup screen and fc's.

Odin flash the official NF9 4.4.2 Tmobile Kitkat N900T Note 3

firmware then simply follow these two step instructions below.

Here is the download link for the official NF9 N900T firmware:

http://SamMobile.com OR http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=34780

Step #1

Download and Odin flash cf-autoroot: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...mn900t.tar.md5

Step #2

Download and Odin flash TWRP 2.7.2.0: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/.../TWRP_2720.tar

For best results use Odin v1.85 which can be found here:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45687485/Odin85.zip

(I always use this version)

Be sure you do a full and complete wipe which includes

wipe data, system, cache, dalvik in recovery mode and

last but not least perform a factory reset before flashing

the firmware.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sacky73:
Thanks I have done all of that except to flash the ROM. I just wanted to see if i got the bootloader thing correct. Thanks

So does nf9 bring the note 3 more of a s5 stock look or did you add the s5 apps? [MENTION=421215]effortless[/MENTION]
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Misterjunky:
re: differences

There are no cosmetic differences in the stock NF9 firmware or roms

when compared to any of the other recent NF1 and NF6 updates.

It looks exactly the same and there are no additional apps in the NF9 update.

You will not notice any visual differences at all and no it does not have any of

the S5's stock looks or appearance unless you theme it.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] gregcapps:
So is it the effortless ROM that has the s5 apps added? Cause it says s5 app updates.

can i flash this using mobile odin pro keeping knox 0x00?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Misterjunky:
re: flashing roms

You cannot flash this or any other twrp/cwm flash-able zip file rom

without changing the knox status to 0x1.

To flash this or any other zip file rom your phone needs to be rooted

and you MUST install/flash cwm or twrp custom recovery first.

Flashing any custom recovery will change the knox status to 0x1.

You cannot flash any zip file roms using odin or mobile odin.

Good luck!

Thanks for the info. I realized that antutu v5 gives higher score (42000+) than the older version, i.e. antutu v4 (score 35000+) on my device. Did you experience the similar thing? What caused that? Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sidneyk:
Yes, on my tablet, too. They changed some of the tests and probably other things under the hood. It actually now runs in landscape mode on my tab where it never did before, always switched to portrait. My tab score went up from around 9500 to 12400+. So, yeah, things are being measured a little differently now.

Unlimited Tethering and SD Card Fix Zip

I have created a flashable zip that will enable unlimited tethering and apply the "SD Card Fix"! :victory:

Make sure to go under your APNs (in settings) and click menu then "Reset to default" (after flashing the zip) and reboot.

Note: if you can connect to the hotspot, but have a limited connection (no internet), go to the APNs and click the circle to enable the "T-mobile Tethering" APN. Wait 30 seconds or so and it will automagically switch back to the "T-Mobile US LTE" APN and it give you internet access.

Just be patient after connecting to the hotspot as it usually takes a little longer than a home router to assign an IP to your PC.

I'm still looking at a few 4-way reboot/extended power menu options... there are some xposed modules like wanam xposed etc that can get you by for now.

Hi,

I'm confused as to even if the 8.0 update even flashed on my note 3 . I updtaed my Baseband and all that, but after I flash 8.0 its still reading 0.6

Hardware Version , is this right and if not what am I doing ?? Or do I need to flash an earlier version first ?? thanks alot !!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sidneyk:
That's fine. What's important is that it shows the correct baseband version and build number. Hardware version will never change unless you change hardware.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] btbamzao:
Just wanted to drop by and say this ROM is running very well. One thing I did notice was that my VoLTE was not working so I flash AEL kernel and it turned back on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] effortless:
Stock ROM doesn't have voLTE icons enabled (when you make a call, if your phone stays on LTE during the call it means it's working). I'd suggest sticking with stock kernel as it has changes relevant to NF9.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] btbamzao:
That's very odd that the icons would just show up when flashing a custom kernel. I did not lose LTE when on a call earlier, but my browser wouldn't pull up a web page either. I feel safe with this kernel as it is international firmware based.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Megaflop666:
Do you have the new stock kernel available for a flash [MENTION=421215]effortless[/MENTION]? I want to play around with some things without having to flash the whole ROM again. Sorry if you already posted and I missed it.

Edit: okay, that's the .tar version. I knew that was there. I didn't know if we had twrp flashable yet so I could do it on the fly on my phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] effortless:
International kernel will usually break things like wifi calling and NFC etc. Test them, but stock kernel is really needed for the new features in NF9.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] btbamzao:
Normally you would be 100% correct which is why I never use them. This specific kernel breaks nothing. WiFi calling and VoLTE work 100%. I'd recommend anyone to try it out as its performance is amazing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Megaflop666:
I had the tar file. Didn't know if you or any of the other XDA geniuses had made a twrp flashable yet for changes on the fly. :thumbup: or... Can I just mobile Odin it? I've read about mobile Odin but haven't used it yet.

Have anybody tried youtube last version on this rom? I have fc on it. And as all other roms i still have pin lockscreen problem i can't add pin lock screen i have this problem with all roms except aosp and s5 ported roms :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] effortless:
Pin lock problem is usually broken when you don't update the bootloader. Try to flash the full NF9 stock .. follow my guide (link is on the original post). You might need to run triangle away to get it to update, but it's all in the guide.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Orical:
Very true, there's a big misconception about updating the bootloader and it being locked after (This only really applies to other carriers, Verizon and AT&T mainly) but I've noticed that people tend to fear updating it and there's no reason for it with T-Mobile because they never have locked it. You don't benefit from an earlier build either, the days of engineering bootloaders are gone for most devices (HTC is the only company that might still use them) and the reason it prevents you from installing another earlier build is its easy to break core functions. The reason every one has so many problems is because they try to avoid it.

Just thought it needed to be mentioned.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] vazovskiiii:
I have already installed nf4 full stock wich means that i have already updated bootloader or i'm wrong ? Here is the video about my bug

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] vazovskiiii:

I'm asking because there is no separate file for bootloader in stock firmware
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Megaflop666:
You're on old firmware. Need to triangle away and flash full nf9. Load full nf9 in Odin pda slot. Don't check anything additional and go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] effortless:
Follow my guide in the general forum.. link is in the original post of this thread. You will most likely need to use triangle away to get it to flash properly.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] vazovskiiii:
Ok thanks dude

I always thought that full firmware automatically updates bootloader
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] effortless:
It does if you're flashing from stock. If you've ever flashed nonstock, it sets a custom flag and sometimes a flash counter. If those are not reset using triangle away before flashing, the baseband and bootloader do not update.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] force70:
So for those of us not on tmo (i have a canadian device SM-N900W8) using this rom is a no go i assume?

Flashing firmware via odin on the wrong device is usually not a good idea and ive never tried it. Plus i dont think the tmo modem would be optimal for rogers if it worked at all.

Anyone attempt this yet?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Misterjunky:
re: flashing SM-N900W8

Flashing this twrp/cwm flashable zip file rom or any other zip file

rom does not change or modify your modem or baseband.

This rom should work with your SM-N900W8 phone.

The main thing you might need to do is to write down your apn settings in

your phone before flashing this rom, then if you have a data/mms issue you

can simply edit your apn after flashing to match what you have written down.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] effortless:
Canadian users have used this ROM, but things like pin code (maybe more) won't work as there are differences in boot loader. You can just flash the ROM zip in TWRP and try it. Don't attempt the full Odin flash, as they are different devices and our modem (baseband) and bootloader aren't interchangeable.
