Thx!

I completed the installation suggestion in the OP.

Safety first!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] cyberdelia:
During the installation (at the end) I got: symlink: some symlinks failed

So.. what does it mean?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tkari4:
If I move the apps to data/app than I must symlink the lib files.

for example:

Google Maps

symlink(): created [data/data]
symlink(): created [data/data/com.google.android.gms]
symlink(): created [data/data/com.google.android.gms/lib]

More info in my signature.

Without symlinking you will have Problem with the moved apps in data/app.

Without the install log i can't help more, you can save it after the install, but after saving it turn auto reboot option off in the Aroma installer.

(or an empty file will be saved)

What is your Phone type?

Which recovery are you using?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] cyberdelia:
This is what I did:

* I installed 1.7 over 1.6, jus wipe cache and dalvik cache.

* Choosed in Aroma leanKernel 3.7 (I had a previous kernel before)

* Not changed modem

* Installation finished succesfully, but with that message of symlinks (I don't know wich app is generating that)

* Started all normal, new Kernel ok, new Rom ok, the only not ok is I have the stock statusbar, even when I choose OG Battery selected. I have the ugly non original stock statusbar and ugly battery.

So, I flashed again as Update mode everything possible, but:

* chossing again OGBattery, different DPI... and thats all.

* Same symlink error at the end, Changed the dpi ok, but same stock statusbar.

* I'm using PhilZ recovery,SM-9005, BTU phone...

OK: Google Maps is not working.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tkari4:
Please update to latest PhilZ Touch because the SystemUI (status bar ) will be changed with vrtheme script.

If the status bar doesn't changed, than the script can't work too.

Dirty flash isn't the best choice too, because in v1.7 are lot of changes. (but good to know that it works)

Latest PhilZ Touch version is: 6.48.4

So, you have two problem now

Symlink and Vrtheme doesn't work.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] cyberdelia:
Great.. I have installed Philz 6.48.4, flashed with system first time.. and now my phone doesn't enter to Android.It keeps rebooting, entering to Recovery...

Edit: And again, symlin failed. Trying a full wipe and full reflash

Edit 2: Did a full wipe a clean installation, ok Stastusbar, nothing about symlin... but can't add a google account!! #@$%&!!

Edit 3: After reboot once again, and connect thru 3G, finally accepted google account.

Conclusion: This ROM MUST BE full-clean-installed. Even if you come from v16 of the same rom.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] micky387:
Yes symlink failed with easy wipe . I'm on v1.6. Partial wipe needed

THX!

That's why I recommend Factory Data Reset in the OP before installing my Rom.

If you move to an other Rom must do the same.

Just for info for other users:

I'll share my problem maybe helps for someone... :o

Before releasing v1.7 I tried to include the Imaged Battery mod in the S4 SystemUI.apk.

Because I don't have an S4 tried it on my Note 3.

Without the mod it was good, got some FC only..

With the mod I had only FC, so my Note 3 wasn't usable, pushed back my SystemUI with adb.

The problems began after that:

1.) Locks screen unlock sound changed to click sound

2.) Random reboots

3.) Extra high battery drain (the phone was very hot by watching online movies, 20% gone in 1 hour) :crying:

Factory Data Reset didn't helped, so I made Factory Data Reset & Clean install...

My Rom and some other Rom already in the Note 3 thread has built in changes. (smali changes)

Without clean install they won't work as it should.

Conclusion: For some reason how to install a Rom was forgotten. :(
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DeeJay-DEFFI:
Philz touch recovery = symlinks problem, Google maps and Dolphin Browser FC, TWRP recovery= everything OK... ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tyvar1:
Will test this rom later today, only heard great words :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tkari4:
I'm in love with this version... :laugh:

All older version was good, but v1.7 is very good.

I'll calibrate my battery to see the battery usage...

But after 2 Hours online movie and 2 hours Asphalt 8 game play & about 30 hour operating time, battery level is on 48%.

And it's all about why the mostly updated apps are moved to data/app?. (unbelievable) :confused:

Some bad news..

- I lost the multi Dpi Play store function again (still do not know why)

I'll try to send an other Dpi for the Google servers, because actually 240 DPI will be sent.

But first the battery need to be emptied out, than charged to 100%, than battery test...

Be patience...:D

edit: If you want to feel the same like me, than PLEASE do an Factory Data Reset & Clean install for v1.7.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mikey160984:
I testet a few things yesterday, and so I made another clean install.

I also testet with Philz Touch, but after the first installation i only got errors... dont't know why. Chenglus CWM is the bullet proof method. With his Recovery it works everytime.

So far is the Rom unbelievable fast and smoth. I love it. Very appreciate your work. In combination with Ultimate Kernel it is a dream

Today I got a problem with Tapatalk, because I don't get any notifications... don't know if this is Rom related or not. I reinstalled it, but it made no effect...

Anyone else got these Problems with Tapatalk? But I think it is a problem with Tapatalk Servers...
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tyvar1:
Which kernel do you guys use? Stock, lean or Ultimate?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mikey160984:
Ultimate is the best Choice for me

Fixed all my problems by giving up on Phyllz recovery and installing TWRP. Too bad, i really liked Phyllz, but v1.7 is worth it :D

Now v1.7 is working like a charm :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] cyberdelia:

Yeah...spoke too soon. My Viber is still crashing when I make or receive a call on it... same as in v1.6.

Tried deleting everything concerning that app and reinstalling from play store, tried using Appsettings to put it to the stock 480dpi... still crash, every time. N9005 v1.7, twrp recovery kk explorer 1.7 kernel, nf4, 321 dpi...
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tkari4:
Maybe you are the one who has a problem with Viber.

Please flash stock NF4 firmware with ODIN, than root it flash Chenglu's recovery.

Before flashing the firmware turn off your phone and wait 10 sec, or take out the battery for 2-3 sec and boot in download mode.

Start Odin, plug in the cable and flash it.

You can try Viber, than with the stock firmware.

Factory data reset recommended before, or after Odin.

Install my Rom, or other custom Rom.

Don't install anything, except Viber. (Do not restore backup's)

Try it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tkari4:
Knows somebody what the number means at the end of the apk name?

I have this in the Rom:

com.google.android.apps.maps-1.apk

After installing the Rom it was in one hour updated to:

com.google.android.apps.maps-2.apk

And this morning got an update again:

com.google.android.apps.maps-3.apk

Is it because my changes? Didn't see an apk with -3 yet.

[MENTION=2312076]tkari4[/MENTION] can you help please:

Last night new firmware NH4 was out for Hong Kong and as my phone is also Hong Kong version I tried to flash it and update my kernel and modem and see what are changes. After that I tried to go back to MultiX, but flashing the rom was ended up with unknown baseband then I tried to flash older Honk Kong firmware NF1 still the problem was persistent then flashed NH4 again and the baseband issue got fixed. It seems NH4's modem is not compatible with NF4 rom and no possibility to flash older modem too. Now I would like to know whether there is any possibility I can go back to MultiX again.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ezaechiel:
Thanks, I'll try it as soon as I receive my new SD card, the old one let me down tonight. I was wondering why the phone was laggy and buggy, I feared it was down but when I removed the card all work fine. So if your phone act weirdly maybe your SD card is down. I hope it could help some of you :D.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tkari4:
Good to know! Thanks!

I didn't forget the SHealth bug. It's fixed in v1.2...

But there is an other one spent some hours with it, but I think the dimensions are somewhere in the smali..

I can't find them.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] posedatull:
Before coming to your rom, I was using X-Note rom, and viber worked like a charm. Except the base rom, I had on the previous ones the same apps installed as always, same setup, same everything

I think doesn't matter what I wrote if you don't want to try it.

I can't help, because Viber is OK on my side.

edit: Or maybe you have problem, because X-Note was mixed with S5 stuff...
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] posedatull:
I shall give it a shot as you said, I was just stating that the same apps/setup, but different rom, it worked, now it doesn't...my logic still pointed towards the rom. Will try, if it works on stock nf4, I will try to install all my other apps and settings, and if it still works, then...?

We must ask more user...

edit: Poll added..
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tkari4:
Next time select only the systemui and deselect all marked app to install.

Hmmm.. symlink doesn't worked again.

You must remove the google+ remains. (from data / app, data / app-lib folders) Than should be installable from Play store.

More info about what to remove in my signature. :o

edit:

If you select something in the Apps section, than will be installed.

If the apps are unchecked (deselected) than nothing happens. (no install & no delete)

V1.7

Hi there.

First of all, I have been using your ROM since version 1.5 and it worked awesome and no problem at all.

Then I installed v1.7 2 days ago and I have problems with my wifi connection. I can connect to the router but I couldn't browse, no playstore, youtube, etc. In other words, no data is comming in. But I do have data if I used mobile data connection.

I have other devices connected to the same wifi but there are no problems on those devices. I only encountered this on v1.7. I have been using the same setup with what I have during v1.5.

Please help me on this. Thnx
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tkari4:
If the MD5 was OK and you made Factory Data Reset and clean install, than should be OK.

I'm not a network guru, but I had already something like you with the wrong DNS settings.

By defaults as DNS1 is your Router IP used:

Longpress on your Wifi connection in the settings select Modify network config, tick show advanced options and change IP settings to Static, than you will be able to change the DNS settings.

If you have the Router IP in DNS1 window, than change it to Google DNS:

DNS 1 = 8.8.8.8

DNS 2 = 8.8.4.4

If you have already the Google DNS there, than change it to your Router IP.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Kamy:
I recommend to not updating your modem to NG1 as you won't be able to downgrade your modem anymore.

I got unknown baseband problem as I flashed NH4 Hong Kong firmware. But if you are on an older modem version than NF4 then you can do as following:

1. Switch off your phone

2. Take off battery for 10 sec (important)

3. Insert battery and hold home+volume down+power to boot in download mode

4. Fire up Odin and choose CP, browse to your already downloaded tar file

5. Connect your phone and wait till Odin identifies it after showing light on click start and wait till it's done.

After reboot go to settings and check.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tyvar1:
I am on NB1!

So if I flash a NG1 stock rom do I get NG1 baseband then? And will it Stick?

And can I flash this rom with NG1 baseband?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Kamy:
No need flash NG1 firmware just flash NF2 modem as this rom is based on NF4, find it in alxndr's thread. But to update your modem just follow as I said. Updating new modems are a bit tricky.
