Hi guys, can any1 kindly recommend any best theme for the version of this ROM? Thanks alot in.advance!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Megaflop666:
That's kind of a personal preference thing really. You can install Xposed and theme it out yourself or you can google for nf9 themes for the note 3.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dragonsamus:
To get tether working you need to turn on your hotspot, then go to the APN screen and click on the tether APN. Wait a few seconds and it'll automatically change back to the t-mobile APN. You should be able to tether now. If not, go back to the APN settings and click the tether APN once more and let it switch back and it should work.

The first time I used tethering it took two clicks but now just one click of the tether APN. Also, I noticed I have to do this every time I use tethering. Hope that helps.

Does anyone know how to get floating windows on this rom? Like the hidden multi window features

This will probably sound really dumb but its driving me crazy. Does anyone know why since Ive updated to this ROM my keyboard no longer does auto correct or puncuate anything?

Should we expect Eff4rtless for the Note 4? Thought of that one all on my own.

You wont find xposed there. Search for the thread or google it.

Where can I get some themes for this ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pgallard:
I hope Eff4rtless stay with Note 3 his rom is the best.

Eff4rtless v8 is the your last update? Or we will get more updates in the future?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] effortless:
As of right now, I still plan on releasing updates (probably when the next T-Mobile update is out). I've taken a break to concentrate on my health, but I'm still around- just not as punctual as I'd like to be in the threads.

Does anyone here use Apex Launcher Pro?

After upgrade from rev 6 to 8 I can't make Apex Launcher as Pro (pro addon must be installed on top of free version) Titanium backup that uses the same method has no problem.

I've tried reinstall free and pro addons several times, nothing helped.

Any ideas?

Thank you.

Before I sold my TMO Note3 with effortless on it, Apex Pro was my launcher and I had no problems at all. Ran smooth and had no problems with it. Sorry not much help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] hookerpuncher:
Delete. Figured it out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] hookerpuncher:
I've this happen before and usually have to reinstall. It only happens to me several weeks into using the rom though, so I think it's something I am doing.

Adding on to this, sometimes it'll auto capitalize the first letter of every word I type. Again, I usually just wipe/reinstall.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] waywardfrantz:
Supersu binary update just broke my phone bad, many apps werent working, wasn't waking from sleep properly even backups and restores weren't working. Don't take the update.

I had to do a fresh install of ROM, and then I was able to do a restore minus the system part. The system is what was crashing for restores and even backups.

I have Rev 8.0 on my Note 3. But I am unable to use the unlimited tether feature. Any input would be great.

Thank you!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] JimInWoodstock:
You need to install a separate .zip file for unlimited tethering and ext card write for Rev 8. This is explained in the 5th text line after the Rev 8 main header on page 1.

How about adding a new poll that tracks the ownership of Note 4's. Some of the categories would be "have you already purchased one?" and "Do you plan to purchase one?". And maybe "which type did you purchase? T_Mobile, ATT, Sprint, Verizon, Unlocked, etc.

When searching for a kernal for this Rom, what are the criteria? Just NF9?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Misterjunky:
re: kernels

NF9 - N900T - 4.4.2

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tiknaragg:
Thank you but I already installed that zip and still not able to do it......

So I have already installed that zip and still I can't use unlimited tether, when i start hotspot, it shows the tmobile page. i have already used my assigned 3gb.:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Megaflop666:
Until shinto gets the full release out for American n900, I'd recommend lean kernel. Absolutely amazing on this rom. Keep an eye out for ShinTo American n900 release as its even better, ive been beta testing it for over a week now and it's amazing with this rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Androidnewuser1:
You have to go to the APN settings and change that to t mobile tether, then turn on your hotspot. I do that each time I need to tether and it works for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] papabear:
Forgive my ignorance, but this is basically a stockrom that has been tweaked.. correct?

Not on here much any more so out of the loop.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ponp74:
Also try this out. Found this while messing around with hidden menus...

From the OP:

1) Open Phone, go to the dialer.

2) Enter *#197328640# to enter the service mode. You will land at "DEBUG SCREEN"

3) Hit the menu key, select "Key Input" and in the Input Value box, enter Q (capital letter) and hit OK

4) Hit the menu key again, select "Key Input", and in the Input value box, enter 0000 (four zeros) and hit OK

5) Wait about 5-10 seconds, your service menu should change to "MAIN MENU":

No voice guidance in Google Navigation?

Hello all. I've noticed that I'm not getting voice guidance in Google Maps/Navigation. 'Mute voice guidance' is unchecked within the app; I have the HQ Google TTS engine installed and enabled, and nothing. I've tried it with the Samsung HQ TTS engine as well and still no voice guidance. :confused: And I've searched for an answer within both this thread and through Google. Any ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Megaflop666:
Is media volume turned up?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] FLHXRider:
Yes, it was. But I figured it out. I went to Bluetooth Settings and went to the particular pairing's settings ("My Volvo Car") and unchecked Media Audio. As I wasn't streaming anything from the Note 3 to the car I wasn't able to hear the voice guidance. After doing that it worked normally from the Note's speaker. If I want to hear it through the car's audio system I'll just have to stream from the Note.

If I reset to default APN will it not erase the correct APN? And if not do we still need to make a dummy APN?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] theNOOBuser:
Sorry if this is in the wrong section or a noob question but I flashed this ROM and the Lean Kernel the other day. Love the ROM tremendously but my battery life hasn't been too great and push notifications from some applications are being a bit weird (not receiving them, only receiving them when screen is on, etc). Any tips or reccomendations?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Megaflop666:
For push notifications, verify you have them turned on in the apps and if they need device listening enabled in security make sure it's on.

Battery life, I don't how you can get bad battery with LK, so get something like better battery stats and see what is causing the drain on your battery. My guess is you have apps eating your battery and you need to greenify them or something.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] theNOOBuser:
I've downloaded better battery stats, and have no clue what anything in there is lol.

Running this after a very long time on aosp. I swore I'd never come back to tw but I saw that xposed offers some of the perks of aosp on tw plus the GPS lock and stability is much better. Now with download booster I'm good. If I could just remember how to get the bare minimum apps while keeping the functions I like. With the tweaked kernel this thing flies. Thanks for this ROM.

thank you. really appreciate.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ponp74:
This ROM has been running perfectly. With that said, I'm getting ROM Flash withdrawals it's been so long...

Anyways, I have my DPI changed to 320 through manual build.prop changes. Everything looks great except the dialer (number pad) and calculator (never really use the calculator, but it still bugs me). They don't scale with the DPI change so I get these really small GUIs. The scaling seems to be fine when using AOSP ROMs, so I'm guessing this has something to do with Touchwiz.. I Use Nova Launcher so I'm not concerned about Touchwiz in general, just the dialer (number pad) and maybe the calculator app.

Does anyone have any possible fixes? Is the dialer a part of Touchwiz or can I install another dialer? Thanks in advance.

Update: Found my answer. turned off the contacts that came with the ROM and installed a 2GIS Dialer Beta and True Contacts. Everything seems to be working for now...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] vazovskiiii:
You could change the contracts dpi through the app manager. Same with calculator and gallery and camera. Is the gallery music app camerra app scaling good on 320?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ponp74:
I tried that before using App Setting through the Xposed Installer. I was modifying the Phone app instead of Contacts where the dialer was located. I've tried it again and modified the Contact App and things scale correctly. I checked the Gallery and it didn't scale well either, but I was using a different camera app with its own gallery which worked fine. As for the music app, I use Pandora and it scales accordingly on its own. I will thoroughly go through and "fix" any scaling issues. Thanks again for the idea.

4.4.4

why are we not on 4.4.4 yet? 5.0 should be coming soon, but been on my one plus one for a while and took the note 3 out of the closet and saw we are still on 4.4..2. What gives? Is it tmo or slowmo?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] effortless:
4.4.4 didn't add anything crucial to Android or more specifically the TMO Note 3. Any crucial fixes are cherry picked by Samsung and patched in their updates, but the 4.4.4 update was mostly bug fixes for Nexus devices. Hopefully by the end of Quarter 1 '15, you'll be on Lollipop, which is a big update.

Don't worry guys, I haven't forgotten about you. I would like to have something for you guys once the next update drops. I don't have a Note 3 anymore so that has made it difficult and I've had no time lately (juggling master's thesis with a few other things). I'd like to create a small volunteer group of beta testers to help me for future development. PM me and I'll take note of your name for when the time comes. Hope everyone is doing well!

Tried a few other ROMs and I keep coming back to this one. Seems nothing else compares to the reliability/stability of this ROM. Can't wait till T-Mobile updates the Note 3. Thanks for the rock solid ROM!

I do have one question. Is there any way to start wifi tether w/o having to toggle the APN so the comps get internet connection? Not a big deal if there's no fix. :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] voyagerair:
I can feel you...been there done that, going all the way from Setting to APN just to switch that. FYI, I've been using APN changer aap on Appstore ...and just one select from the home page. that's all it takes to tether the shiiit out of my N3.

I'm happy everything worked for you. XDA is a great place. Been here since I had the HTC Kaiser (TyTN II). I may not post much, but I'm reading the threads and news page daily. Can't wait till T-Mobile drops Lollipop for our devices this summer. I've been messing with DomPop 5.0.2. It works great, but I miss some key features of a stock like this ROM.

---------- Post added at 09:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 AM ----------

I figured out how to set the tethering up without having to select the tethering APN (some cases when the laptop doesn't get an internet connection). I made some changes to the T-Mobile US LTE APN. I removed the APN Type (left it blank) and changed the APN Protocol and APN Roaming Protocol to IPv4/IPv6. No longer having connection issues when I start the tethering app. I'll continue testing, but its been a few days solid with reboots to test the tethering connection. :fingers-crossed:

Seriously people? Begging? Devs will work on things when they get around to them if they're going to do them at all. I've been seeing this all around xda today in the note 3 threads. It's just like asking for eta's; it's not polite to push. Here's a tip, don't piss off your devs. I've already seen a couple get frustrated today. I've seen devs shut stuff down for that kind of behavior. Just my 2 cents...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ponp74:
My last post wasn't a poke, prod or even to beg. I know these devs make these awesome ROMs on their own time and don't get much in return. I don't think I've ever asked for eta's knowing how impolite it is. I was merely showing my excitement that we may see an awesome Stock Lollipop ROM here soon.
