This isn't an issue with the Rom. It's an issue with Google Maps not being compatible with the international lollipop ports.

I have shown that Maps does in deed work for me.

The best I can tell you is to uninstall it. Reboot to recovery and wipe cache only. Reboot, go back to playstore and re-install it.

This issue happens because people wipe and not format.... which reminds me, I'm updating the OP now, and dumping the "Lollipop Install Instructions"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] phrotac:
You can change model number with a free app in the play store called build.prop editor. Just scroll down until you see "ro.product.model" and change it ??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bmwboyee:
Went through and did exactly this. Also, when flashing, I follow the instructions to a "T". I'm not sure why this works on .4 and not on 2.x. I have no problems on .4 and have problems ever since .4 with maps. But maps still aren't working.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Dwnhiller:
Im jelly maps is working for you!! I definately formatted x3, wiped x3, and just for fun, factory reset x3.. Work great in 2.0, and 2.1 but when i update to 2.2 no workie.. Lol so jelly :P

Edit :

However, I am dirty flashing updates??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] phrotac:
0.4 is a ported Note 3 rom and 2.0 is a ported Note 4 rom. They are WAAAYYY different.

---------- Post added at 11:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 AM ----------

It's a good thing too; otherwise, your phone would not boot since updates are not a full rom flash ;)

A little off topic guys, but check out the irony. Look at the date of the T-Mobile in flight calling OTA update:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] shadowharbinger:
It's my dd and I have no issues with signal or maps.:laugh:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] RascalDoc:
lol

My first computer was a Heathkit, and having a hard drive was an option. I think it was an 8086. and DOS was still 5.0 I think.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] phrotac:
Good news! I just got the call. I start working tomorrow morning at 7 (my time of course lol). Thanks for wishing me the good luck ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] TEKHD:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] shadowharbinger:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] badmonopoly:
lag

Is anyone else experiencing lag when launching/switching things? It can be in memory and still lag like KK. CPU tweaking may have been too much. I guess it's just unresponsive.

The old version did everything instantly and was the fastest rom I've ever seen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] TU Homer:
I'm back to .4, very stable with no apparent issues. Very stable.

I've upgraded each stage through 1.2, but backed down. I'm wanting to continue to stay current, but wanted to confirm if anyone is seeing the issues I was. That is, if I had an app open (such as Hangouts, Music, Gmail, etc) and a call was received, I could not answer the call. I had to pull my battery and start all over.

Has anyone experienced that in the past (1.X) but now is clear on 2.2 or later?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] KwestJones:
I have experienced that on 1.X but not experiencing on 2.1. I didn't go to 2.2 because I am waiting for the maps issue to work itself out. Love 2.1...probably the best rom that I've had. I think I may be experiencing excessive battery drain. Not sure because I was using my phone pretty steady but 5 hours in I was at 25%. That hasn't been the norm. Everything else seems to be working for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] TU Homer:
Thanks, KW. I'll give that a shot when I have 40 minutes to clean flash.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] muz_grt:
It's not letting me use my phone network.

Came from 1.4. And the network went haywire in 2.0 and then in the 2.2.

It picks up the network and drops it again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] KwestJones:
Check a couple pages back. You don't want to do the Samsung privacy sharing Once your phone reboots and u are setting it up there is the page where you have to accept something in the middle and then at the bottom you should skip the privacy sharing....you will notice when it first starts you get 4g but after you do the privacy sharing you get nothing...hope I explained that well enough.

Edit: had the terminology wrong. Look at [MENTION=966755]thothong[/MENTION] post right below

Gettin there... Now if i can figure out how to hide the launcher icon like the other 2 ill be square :)

Apparently viper doesnt like hiding...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] phrotac:
I have noticed, from personal experience, that it is best to shut down the phone, pull the battery, re-insert battery, and then boot into recovery. If you boot into recovery from the power menu then you're ram has not been cleared and can cause problems during installation and/or during boot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kuiyibo:
I can finally post here!!! :D

First, nice work; I love it. The ROM is amazing.

I have the latest update 2.2, but I can't see the Air Gestures in the settings (For gallery and music player).

P.D. Sorry for my bad english.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] CarrasquilloC:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] uni-tech:
My Phone first boot, com.sec.androi.app.msa stopped,

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] marktang:
got 2.2 working with reception but now google maps doesn't work. Wipe cache already and reinstall and still doesn't work. Seems like 2.0 is working best but then i don't see 3Minit or the Email app. Hopefully these issues will be fixed soon.

Other than that. great work!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Seannon:
I want to first say thank you very much to KevP and the rest of the people working on this rom I've been lurking on here since about page 12, my first computer was an Altair that I got in a few boxes, (several cases, motherboards etc... ) second was a TRS-80 third was a 486 I built, ran dos 3.1 and dos shell. Then windows 3.11 windows for workgroups built a network at home to share a modem. .. if that shows age, well, I guess I'm old too [emoji14] in glad you're staying to feel better, Phrotac, congrats on the new job! I likely would have jumped in myself on some of the not looking at the first few posts issues and not listening once told a couple of times. .. but, I had liposuction done in my sinuses and a deviated septum forcibly fixed. So far, this has been my favourite rom since one of the jelly beans hit for the vibrant! Please don't let the jerks win
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] r1tesh:
Ok...................................
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] muz_grt:
Thanks man! :D

That made the network work.

[MENTION=4819587]kevp75[/MENTION] A few problems that I've noticed so far, the ultra power saving really doesn't do anything. I tried using that last night. Charged the phone to 100% left it on ultra power saving mode and woke up to 88%.

Also, there is no keyboard option in the messaging app in the ultra power saving mode as well.

Is this something you're already working on, if it is then I'm sorry to be repeating the issues. Just thought I'd highlight them if someone hasn't.

Once again man, you've done a splendid job. :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] shadowharbinger:
+1 also since 2.2,my dismiss and snooze icons on reminders show as black boxes, and this morning the phone was on but screen remained black and unresponsive to input. Had to do a battery pull. Would a logcat help?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] chispas109:
If you want the Email app see the changelog for 2.0
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kpirnie:
Happenned to me on first boot as well (even posted here that it did)

Dont know what that service is yet but will find out today...

Gotta read the changlog bud 3minits in system settings

I wont bud...

i remember the 486s as well ;)

That was when i first start leqrning Basic... Not even qBasic ;)

Ive had nothing but problems with UPSM 9n this, my old s3, and my old s4.

As for a fix... Ill see what i can do

Havent had that happen... Yeah logcat would help... Pm me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] muz_grt:
Thanks man for looking into this. I don't know if UPS works on any transformation at all. :/

I think I should get the note 4, just because I love the UPS on my S5 too much. lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] marktang:
i'm on 2.2 and i can see 3Minit in system but didn't see it when i was on 2.0. Will probably flash back to 2.0 later on tonight if there's no fix to google maps yet.

also i noticed on 2.2, my samsung gear doesn't connect automatically. i have to manually connect it every time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kpirnie:
Good possibility bud. :)

Same here on the Gear, yet it'll connect to my can stereo without a problem...

Can you test something out for me in regards to the Maps issue?

You'll need a root browser.

Go to /system/priv-app/Msa and rename Msa.apk to Msa.apk.bak, reboot into recovery, and wipe cache only, then reboot and fire up Maps.

(hard for me to test, as I don't have the issue)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] marktang:
Nope maps still doesn't work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] chispas109:
You dont experience the issue even on a clean flash without TB restore? I remember you mentioned some issues you do not or did not replicate due to the use of TB to restore apps. Btw, i rarely use maps but out of curiosity i downloaded it a few days ago to test out what other users were facing and i was able to get it to keep force closing.

---------- Post added at 09:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 AM ----------

Has anyone sent you a log of the maps force close and if so, has it been of any help?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] muz_grt:
Even I haven't had any issues with maps. And I did a complete clean install.

[MENTION=4819587]kevp75[/MENTION] There is a note 4 port rom. Should I try and test that out to see if UPS works on that one?

If it doesn't work there, then that could mean samsung does something to close off the feature from being used in other phones?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] chrisa887:
download superSU and try to update binaries , might work
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] phrotac:
You had me going at first lol! My first thought was, "And so begins the flaming again ?" I started laughing in relief when I saw you were joking ?

My first android device was the HTC Vivid. I noticed all kinds of weird stuff going on when I changed Sense roms. I researched the problem extensively and discovered that the problem existed in the internal sdcard file system. I also noticed things that were left behind from previous ROMs in my android/data folder. Apps that did not even work on the new Sense Rom yet were still present on my SD card and causing force close issues. I, too, noticed force close issues for apps that were not installed. Other people were having similar issues with their phones as well. I suggested the internal sdcard wipe, after it worked for me, and those that tried it were posting that their problems went away. The dev even went so far as to include that in his OP because of all of the success posts. From that point on I have wiped my internal sdcard with each Rom change. I started suggesting it in other threads but was only met with hostility each time (I won't mention any names because most were moderators and devs). That's why I have been hesitant to bring it up here. I used to PM people until one day I was outed by one of the people I tried to help. That person posted in the thread and asked if that was a good idea because I had PM'd him to tell him. I then got flamed again by the same mods and devs as before. Since then, I have held my tongue (bit actually) in fear of more flames. I only mention it now because I want to see this rom succeed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ludeawakening:
Yes like chrisa887 said, just try downloading SuperSU from the link in the OP. Technically you shouldn't even have to do that, but it's always good to have the latest. I haven't had to download SuperSU and flashed it once. And between the two releases, I've flashed the ROM about 6 times. I just update the binaries on the initial boot when it prompts me to. I've never checked this ROM with root checker, I just install Titanium Backup Pro and if it works, I know I have root working properly.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] techpreneur:
Do I need to format to install 1.6 or can I do a dirty flash.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] conchchowder:
You may get a black screen after you update SU using this method. Simply reboot and you should get your screen back.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] alek889:
kevp75,in the OP it said "ONLY TWRP RECOVERY HAS BEEN TESTED".Well,just to let you know i have CWM and flash the rom without issues.;).Maybe you can add CWM to the tested list.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kpirnie:
I clean flash everything so i cant tell you for sure
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kpirnie:
I appreciate the share.

2 things to note

1. this may remove the 3minit battery mod...

2. dont ask me for support if you flash this
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ludeawakening:
Well I can tell you this now, if you have any ideas that you think could help, don't be afraid to suggest them. And that especially goes for me. If you don't want to post it in the thread, then just PM me with what you have on your mind, and I will try it myself. I don't mind trying anything that will better a ROM in any way. I'm pretty sure [MENTION=4819587]kevp75[/MENTION] won't mind either. If you have an idea that I try and it works, I will let him know since this is his baby Lol. And you never have to worry either, if it was your idea, I'll make sure you get full credit for it. I'm sure you could PM him directly for that matter.

Does that sound good to you? :)

---------- Post added at 04:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:53 PM ----------

Out of the probably 100 or more times I've used the normal method to update the binaries, I have never gotten a black screen on any ROM or on any device. :confused: *shrug*

Nice to know that the mod works and keeps the battery.

By all means, you can post them, just double/triple/quadruple check that they do indeed work, and don't clash with other mods.

I can confirm there is no keyboard for the messaging app while in UPSM on 2.2...

But...

I can also confirm that by installing the Dompop Stock Samsung Keyboard...

http://tekhd.com/xda/Samsung_Keyboard_for_DomPop_TEKHD.zip

1. Remove the keyboard folder from system/app

2. Flash above file...

The problem is solved...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bmwboyee:
Something interesting. I wiped 3 times and put 2.0 on. Downloaded maps and installed. Worked fine. Flashed over 2.2 and tried maps, FC and no worky. So to me, it has to be something in the ROM, not the phone.

Will the other keyboards be deleted if I do this?

And will it make the UPS do something to save the battery because as of now, even minusing the keyboard thing, it's not helping the battery at all. lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] marktang:
Not sure why but my watch gets really hot after flashing this ROM and battery is draining fast as well.

How do I push an app in system folder in 5. 0
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] chispas109:
You need to have an file explorer with root permissions to be able to do it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] audioblivious:
Ok how
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] chispas109:
By grabbing such app with root explorer and navigating your way to system/app directory and copying it there and setting the correct permissions for said app. Hope this is what you are looking to get answered
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] audioblivious:
Ok I notice they are ALL in separate folders do I need to do this to
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ludeawakening:
Yep you are correct. A lot of people forget to change the permissions when they push an app to the system. Permissions for all of these type of apps should be set as 0644

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ludeawakening:
I wish it were as simple as being an apk. Multiwindow functions are actually what I'm currently working on for DomPop.

Pretty much all of the aspects of functionality of things like multiwindow will be xml files that begin with "com.sec.feature" and you have to know how to edit the strings in said xml files.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] audioblivious:
Ok I see I want to add it to cm12 it don't have it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ludeawakening:
I don't see you being able to do that anyway, being that multiwindow is a feature of the TouchWiz launcher. You can search for alternatives though. There are a few out there that gives you multiwindow and adds the S Pen functions to AOSP ROM's.

Also... not trying to be rude, but I assume you'll have a lot better chance of getting help with this if you post these types of questions in the correct place. I would start with the CM12 thread. ;)
