[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonsc1:
I reccently purchased a Note 3 from Verizon back in April. It came with and still has 4.3. I have not recieved an OTA for Kit Kat from Verizon yet. I came from a Rooted Droid Razr. I have never flashed any ROMS. I do want to Root my Note 3 to be able to run all the Root apps I have purchased. I have a couple questions and would really appreciate if anyone could answer them for me. I am familiar with Root but Im no Pro. Again I have Never Flashed any Roms or anything.

#1 I have heard of two ways to Root the Note 3, KINGO & ODIN. Which method is the Best to use. I did see a Root method on XDA if you want to go to Kit Kat with the ability to go back to 4.3. As of right now I dont want KIT KAT bc of the SD card issues I've read about. I really just want 4.3 Rooted. Unless I am advised otherwise. Im really not sure what would be the best thing to do.

#2 Once I have Rooted my Note 3. If and When Verizon sends the OTA for Kit Kat. What should I do? Not take it? Want I have to dismiss it every 12 hour? That could get annoying.

#3 Whatever Root method you advise me. Can you leave me a Link to the Files and the Instructions on how to Root it? Thanks for any help. Jason
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00143:
If you are on MJ9 baseband you can use the Odin method for root but if you are on MJE you will have to use Kingo 1.1.8 or lower to root. Once you have root on MJE you can go up to the NC2 KitKat leak and the SD card issue is fixed and the VZW OTA is disabled. You can disable the OTA on 4.3 by disabling or deleting SDM1 client.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonsc1:
How do I know if I am on MJ9 or MJE? I looked throught my phones "About Phone" the only thing I can find close to that is the "Baseband Version" and mine is N900VVRUBMJE. Also the "Build Number" section ends in MJE. Im guessing this mean I am on the MJE. Right?

Hi,

I am attempting to read the CAVE settings in DFS but all I get is an error, "CPS_ERROR BAD_PARAM". I have entered my spc and I can read almost everything else in DFS (except ha and aaa which give me the same error). What am I doing wrong? How can I read CAVE, HA, and AAA from my phone?

p.s. I have done the open sesame door trick but could not find any valuable information in the 466 or 1192 files.

Flash an RUU that should put the phone back to stock and if the problem continues than its hardware and can't be fixed on your end.

If the phone is S-OFF follow this Guide [GUIDE] How to Return to 100% Stock

If your S-ON relock the bootloader and depending on which carrier model the phone belongs to flash one of the RUU exe from this site HTC1guru

[Depository]FTF Kernels for the Xperia Play

Okay, Since you unlocked your Bootloader with the test point method and you had "Bootloader unlock Status: No", you do not have access to Fastboot Mode. You can still flash a Costume Kernel but it will have to be flashed through Flash Mode in FlashTool.

Click on where it says "[Depository]FTF Kernels for the Xperia Play" in my signature and you can download Kernels that are converted in to FTF files (from the original .img file), so you can flash them via Flash Mode.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoeCraw:
So, I just did the KitKat update. Seems to be a little snappier, but nothing special. Wish I would've stayed on jellybean to be honest.

1. My primary issue is that I'm trying to figure out how to enable "Immersive mode". Do I need a special launcher? I tried sideloading the google now launcher but the the black task bar/status bar stays put (if that makes sense).

My goal would be to "enable" immersive mode, but keep the moto circle widgets as the well as the quick settings menu, but I'm okay losing it if necessary. Also, I would like to have "okay google" homescreen to work.

Thanks for any guidance on these issues. Would rather not root, or load a custom ROM if necessary. Thanks!

---

BTW, here are some other issues if you all know a fix...

2. Is there a way to change the lock screen/PIN screen to the way it was. The number pad is smaller now with KitKat :(

3. Is there a "dark theme" to the gmail app.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] triloger:
Regarding the immersive mode when you are in a full screen game or any given app, if you try to pull down the status bar, you can now, thanks to the immersive mode.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoeCraw:
Thanks triloger. I feel like an idiot, I mixed up "immersive mode" with what should have been "transparent notification bar/navigation buttons". Sorry for the confusion.

Unfortunately, I had to download a different launcher but I was able to get the transparency working.

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] dancress:
Since there are similar threads in other forums around here, let's try this here. Since we now have a selection of alternative ROMs available, I do wonder which one offers the best battery life.

Stock didn't make me too unhappy in that department. Never measured it but it didn't seem too shabby. Yet as long as Sammy's stock is what it is - making an otherwise fantastic device feel slow and laggy - it's out of the question to return to it.

Running CM11 now. Makes me very happy as a whole but battery life is lacking. Getting around four hours of screen time with brightness set to the lower third of the scale. Also, I recently switched from Chrome to Firefox on all my computers including Android devices. On the 8.4 it burns through the battery like there's no tomorrow, often using more than 25 per cent. It doesn't on my other Androids.

Any experiences with Carbon, Clean or any of the de-crapwared stock ROMs?

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Graeme H:
Hey everyone. I bought this device specifically because I do a lot of work on linux in command line world and I though it would be the perfect device when combined with the Logitech Pro keyboard and Complete Linux Installer (it's an app on Google Play). It turned out to be quite a bit of work getting everything working because of Knox and SELinux. Eventually I got a custom kernel working that allows me to toggle SELinux between permissive and enforcing.

I attached an Odin flashable tar that works on the SM-P900 (wifi version). I am on the North American version, so I have no idea whether it will work in other regions. If you flash this kernel then there are a few things you need to know:

I'm assuming you already have root on your device.

When you boot it will still be in "Enforcing" mode. This change simply allows you to use the "setenforce" terminal command or any of the apps on Google Play that do this for you.

You might experience some wifi weirdness after you flash the kernel. You just need to open up /system/build.prop and change ro.securestorage.support from true to false and then reboot to resolve the issue.

If you have a different version of the device or want to compile it yourself for any reason I wrote an article describing how I compiled it here:

http://graemehill.ca/compiling-permissive-android-kernel/

I also did a few other things to fix the keyboard and get linux running properly, so if you're interested in that I described my setup in more detail here:

trying to build kernel

I'm trying to follow your guide to compile a kernel from source. I have installed (on my Win 8.1_64 PC) Android SDK/NDK. GnuWin32, JavaJRE, and downloaded SM-P900 kernel source.

I'm getting errors at "Apply Kernel Config" step.

here's the output: http://pastebin.com/yFqDrNY8

Thanks for your help

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Graeme H:
It looks like you're in Windows. To my knowledge it is not possible to compile a Linux kernel in windows. I would recommend downloading virtual box and installing some Linux distro in there. This is what I was talking about in the "environment" section at the top of the article.

For android development I find that you need access to a lot of tools where some are only available on Windows and others are only available on Linux so a Windows PC with a Linux VM is ideal in my opinion.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] dodo99x:
Oh ok, no problem. I just misread the guide. I've setup a build environment in a vm before to compile aosp for my Nexus 10. Shouldn't be too hard to do it again. I recently rebuilt my pc so the vm I had got nuked. :)
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] dodo99x:
ok I got my Ubuntu VM up and running using this guide

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50748836&postcount=25

installed android NDK to ~android/NDK, and unzipped the kernel source to ~android/kernel

followed your guide to build a SELinux permissive kernel but i'm getting some errors when trying to compile. here's the output:

http://pastebin.com/Npdu7J5h

EDIT: retried doing the EXPORT command and now it seems to be compiling
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Graeme H:
When you export a variable in the terminal it only exists for that one session, so if you open a new terminal instance you need to run the command again. If you want to set it permanently normally you can just put the export command into ~/.bashrc
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] dodo99x:
Oh I see. I'll give that a try. I was able to create a new boot.img following the rest of your guide. I have yet to try flashing it though. Will have to find some info about all the kernel options that can be set. Hopefully be able to integrate HMP to get all eight cores running at the same time.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Graeme H:
Cool, let us know how that goes. I wonder how much it would affect battery life.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] canezila:
I tried to install this using VBox Odin and I couldnt get it to work. Tried using BOOTLOADER and also PDA. Not sure the correct one but neither worked for me. Also, Moblie ODin hasnt yet worked but when it does, things will be much easier for me at least.

I have a newly rooted SM-900. I will have to find time someday to compile the kernel against what I have. Must be a slightly newer version than the one you posted. That is only thing I can think since I just got my 12.2. Thanks for the detailed info.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] aarstar:
Camera?

Hey, thanks for the great kernel. It's working as expected to enable permissive mode, but I'm having one issue with it. When I use your kernel, the camera is disabled (says something like "Camera Failed"), and it won't work even when trying different software besides stock, like Google Camera. Anyway, clearing cache, etc. doesn't do anything, but the camera works again when I flash the stock kernel. Is this related to permissive mode or something else with the settings?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] lickarock:
The camera fails for me too. I dumped a logcat and isolated the issue here:

W/ActivityManager( 2746): Permission Denial: get/set setting for user asks to run as user -2 but is calling from user 0; this requires android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS_FULL

V/ApplicationPolicy( 2746): isApplicationStateBlocked userId 0 pkgname com.google.android.GoogleCamera

But... the camera is not a huge deal. It did, however, break wifi. I did not get a logcat of that yet, but I would assume it is also a permission issue.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] aarstar:
Wifi works for me using the fix mentioned in the OP. Also, thanks for looking into the camera issue. I agree it's not a big deal, and it's easily fixed by flashing the stock kernel, until someone figures out a proper fix.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] lickarock:
Wow, I totally missed that entire line in the OP... You literally just made my whole day. I fought this all day long, desperate to get ubuntu working. Thank you for pointing that out.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Stevethegreat:
I get "xt_mark.h" is missing (no such file or directory) error. Any idea why that may be?

I'm using the source for p900 international hoping that I may sidestep the camera issue that way (by enabling permissive to the international kernel I mean), but as it stands it does not compile.

I've googled it but until now it was/is to no avail...
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] ESmazter.:
Hey Graeme H,

we both have the same intention. I am downloading the international Kernel at the moment and will compile it again for you guys. The download takes a little longer as I am at vacations. ;)

I am going this route: doviak.net/debian-kit/debian-kit_p00.html . In the future I would like to have arch linux running on this device but a customized debian would be okay for the beginning, too.

Eventually I will try to use framebuffer instead of vnc or something like that. I would love to use sublime-text and dwm on that device with that resolution :D

Good luck guys. I will try to update.

Edit: hehe I have dwm in front of me now and the resolution is so high that I am barely able to read :D

Compiled the kernel and flashed in on my device but my camera is still not working. Maybe we need to edit the config:
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] smylion:
