Man I get away for a few days and I'm lost. What happened to the Home and Sleep Icons in the Status Bar? I'm fine without them but I didn't see the write up about them being removed. I don't use any of the TW launchers and all that jazz so I'm good. Removed 74 apps out of the system so I've slimmed down quite a bit. Things are running smooth for me on the new 3.1.1 so a :good: [MENTION=4107827]TEKHD[/MENTION]. Probably missing out on all the awesome theming going on but I can live with that besides I have my latest TEKHD Wallpaper so I'm good. A special thanks to [MENTION=4405299]chipworkz[/MENTION] for all the awesome help and tips, and to all that pitch in to make this a great experience for all of us running this Super Rom.

I am no expert by any means but some of the theming tweaks I have done are in the framwork-res.apk specifically the styles.xml for the Notifications font color.

Thanks [MENTION=3798933]PapaMag[/MENTION], just doing what I can when I can. There are lots of great helpful people in this thread, very refreshing. A special thanks to you for the really awesome images you have put out for this rom.

I'm using nova launcher and I'm using (team black out ) do a Google search cause I'm not sure, I don't wanna break the rules and post the apk
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] OriginxRambo:
Its weird i did everything in there and recompiled the system ui apk. (Not sure if its the right way didnt show the value folder afterwards) I restarted the phone and on first attempt had no effect just a black ui and no status bar. The next time it reverted but to the stock virgin theme i had on there. Any ideas? everything else went smoothly including decompiling it was a success so I'm just trying to figure out what is needed last. :confused:

Just an FYI for everyone. I'm on 3. 1. 1. and I had finger view enabled. I was having a lot of dead zones or had to press really hard in the messaging app for example for my finger to register on the screen. somehow it came to me to disable the finger hover option. and the responsiveness of the screen is back to normal, just in case anyone else has this issue
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] madskills843:
Thanks what at exactly is that apk? Just black outs everything? Was on any ROM?

I will try that. \is it worth switching to emotion kernel from AEL? Have you got better performance (Titanium issues aside)

---------- Post added at 02:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:31 AM ----------

I will try that thank you!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TEKHD:
Battery drain issues are most likely a bad flash... (unless it was working fine before, if it was working fine, then it's an app you installed) my suggestion... start from scratch... wipe data/dalvik/system/data/ x3 and reflash rom... safest, fastest solution...

solution... flash the stock kernel (OP) .... sign in to hulu/netflix... then return to emotion kernel... (hulu will keep working)

virtual tour

oh , now i found something strange ...

1. in the note 3 sm-n900 is the little green square under lollipop ;) what i was writing about earlyer ,

2. the virtual tour camera modus works only till you want to open the virtual tour , that means you can start this cameramodus and take the pictures, and it saves also the tour images but it dosent start the tour from the galery there i got a force quite .

I didnt change anything on the given flash installation (made a clean flash) , i use the kernel from the flash (Emotion r15 was this i belive) and hybrit launsher , no xpose nothing , just the flash 3.1 with additional dolby fix , ok this foto mod isnt to much in use but maybe there is something that can be fixed to complete the anyway very cool rom :fingers-crossed:

Nonny
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TEKHD:
This happens on all roms... odexed rom doesn't happen. As soon as the rom gets deodexed... the virtual tour breaks. no fix. (there is info regarding this issue like a 100 pages back, the same on the canadian rom)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
well then ...

Ok thanks TEK for the info , i didnt know that one , so the "focus square " is maybe the same problem then .

Anyway i wouldnt "flash back" to stock , its to nice to "play" with your rom, and one thing before the dolby update it was working also with videos in the stock player and so on , after dobly update it works no more for videos, maybe there is a little "checkmark" to do only so that works like before , i liked the videos with the dolby :) , but no rush ! its not realy importent ... just an idea .

Nonny
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TEKHD:
100% sure dolby was working with stock video player?

The fix just changed this line: (from true to false)

<SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_MUSICPLAYER_SUPPORT_INTERNAL_SOUNDALIVE>FALSE</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_MUSICPLAYER_SUPPORT_INTERNAL_SOUNDALIVE>

I see that stock video player has soundalive always turned on... I see no way to turn it off. In settings, (while playing a video) soundalive shows 2 options, voice or normal.

100% it was working? I even flashed the previous XML (without the music fix) and still doesn't work
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
OK , maybe i got this wrong then , but in VLC it was working , and your right i belive for the own sound alive option in the stock player the dolby is like turned of or better not working, hmm well ok but now also in the VLC videos i cant use viber or dolby , in the misic YES there it works , i will check now again ... Videos in VLC.

Thanks TEK

... dolby , works not in VLC player viper also not , but in music all is fine , well not to important ... for music is enougth :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TEKHD:
but if you can confirm that it was working with VLC at some point in the past (previous version of the rom) just let me know... I will make it work again...

Thank you!

with each new update I bring more features to the rom... but it also becomes harder to keep the regular features + previous mods + new mods all coexisting in harmony.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] SiNJiN76:
I'm still on 3.1. Dolby is working with VLC.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
So fare i remember i was so happy with your first dolby version what was already in the rom integratet and there was in dolby this little equylazer moving , then it came out the dolby update , and when i pressed the sound alive option it jumpet strait to the dolby settings page in the update i belive it was like this, maybe you remember as you tould me not to panic because some people was reporting a battery drain and i dindt know how to restore your dolby ... but its true it was clearly to hear that dolby configuration was taking efekt , and also together with viper , that was in 2.9 when i remember correctly, its because i watch more movies , here in south america i have all in spanish , but i do have some German movies i watch before sleeping in bed in my own language , so i remember well the sound quality was changed dramaticly after i played with the dolby and viper settings , i also remember that the "volume up" mod was a little to much for me , maybe somethings changed to much from 2.9 "TEK dolby" to the updated 3.1.1 dolby , i am not realy a programmer and to tell you the true not realy a "flash" men , that makes me nervios somehowe but your rom dosent make me trouble and i alsways clean flash to make sure nothing "old" installet breaking the "fresh" installation , but i really do remember the much more realistic sound in the videos from your dolby before . Or maybe that was just lucky that it was working for me ? i have no idea ... but dont break you head about that to much , i am happy like this anyway ! :good:

Nonny

Sorry for my english but i hope its still understandible somehowe

Is my Dolby working? I can't change anything. It's been like this since I flashed the rom. The power turned on but I am not sure it's working or not.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TEKHD:
The only difference in that department between 3.1 & 3.1.1 is this line:

From true to false...

<SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_MUSICPLAYER_SUPPORT_INTERNAL _SOUNDALIVE>FALSE</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_MUSICPLAYER_SUPPORT_INTERNAL_ SOUNDALIVE>

That affects VLC???

I am on 3.1.1 I don't see VLC working with Dolby...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
HmmMMMmmm , maybe i have a bad flash ??? strange like i say i remeber the cool sound quality before , ok maybe i have to reflash again ? the ROM 3.1 i test allways after download with winRAR "test archive" option and when it shows no errors then i copy to SD cart and start flashing ... mybe this time it dosent work corectly then ...

Nonny
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] SiNJiN76:
You need to have something playing.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
when you play music in the middle the equilyser should move , in movies maybe not because here it dosent work , but like this looks here also but im musik it moves in the middle , moment i will try a screenshoot !
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mutantblack:
Just tested out by playing music with poweramp, the dolby app doesn't change anything. Just stay like the screen shot I have posted.

you have to:

Poweramp -> Settings -> Audio -> Advanced Tweaks -> uncheck Direct Volume Control
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
here dobly stock player with music working looks like this depends your configuration and the playing sound :

Ah and YES you need something playing in the backgound what make sound or nothing will happend with the dolby , no movents no sound ...

re: videos, dolby and stock music player.

I just played a video (movie) in the stock video player and while the video

is playing dolby has no effect on the audio whether I disable or enable it.

As far as Youtube videos go Dolby has a dramatic effect (improvement)

while dolby is enabled.

I also notice that in the stock music player there is no way to disable dolby,

unless I open the dolby app and disable it.

There is something about dolby I wanted to ask, why is it that it takes so long for

dolby to open? All the other apps in the phone open instantly or almost instantly.

Hope this helps to figure out the issue.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
1. First thanks (i reached the 8 thanks limit per day already , sorry for that)

2. this is what i experience here too , well strange what could be the "trick" there some working some not , i belive it the stock own "sound alive option what cant be disabled so easy ...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TEKHD:
Each time you open dolby... dolby loads a bunch of sound parameters... (also some configuration files) I think that's why...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Misterjunky:
re: thanks

Don't worry about the "thanks", next time just give thanks twice to make up for it. LOL
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
Dobble thanks to you next time , i will remember this one ;)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TEKHD:
Okay... I was testing...

The line that I was talking about.... has nothing to do with VLC...

true or false... VLC doesn't like Dolby... I am on VLC Revision 630a95b (2014-10-16) latest

with URv3.1.1

so the question is... why is it working for some and others not
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
ok so then i run out of ideas also, no idea when this was the only change what was made but it has no efect anyway then there must be anotherthing more , but no idea what could that be , maybe we just take your first version of the dolby you had in the beginning that one worked well so fare i remember ...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TEKHD:
I also have no idea... I will try a few things tomorrow then... maybe it's just a simple setting somewhere...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
like you want its not to importend i would say but strange some people have it working some not anyway no rush with that one , my phone is just cooled down from the last "flash attack" :o , so friends it is 2 o´clock in the morning i drop from the chair here soon , lets continue tomorrow , good night all ...

I use a multitude of various apps. I will stress after flashing follow the op as in do not even think about touching your phone for 15 minutes. After that go through set up and drain the battery.

Guide to Install TEKXodus 3.1+ ROM on N910W8(Canadian) devices

Pre-requisite : If you are coming from KitKat, please upgrade your firmware to the N910W8 Lollipop version N910W8VLU1BOC4. You can download the firmware from

http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/45064/N910W8VLU1BOC4_N910W8OYA1BOC4_BMC/

Steps to Install​

1. Download the following to your phone

Latest TEKXodus ROM

02_CANADA_DATA_FIX.zip (attached)

BioShock_Kernel

Wipe Options

2a. If coming from another ROM, go to Wipe->Advanced Wipe and Select System, Data, Cache and Dalvik Cache

2b. If upgrading from previous version of TEKXodus ROM(N910T versions), then dirty flash should be fine unless recommended by TEKHD(if it's a major update, wiping as in 2a is best for an error free experience)

Flashing the ROM

3. Reboot into recovery and flash the following

a. Latest TEKXODUS ROM

b. BioShock Kernel (Stock N910W8 kernel is also fine, but might break some functionality requiring Permissive kernel), BioShock kernel seems to

provide good battery life and performance from my experience​

Moderator Edit - Content removed. Discussion of prohibited work is forbidden.

4. After flashing, reboot system and wait till you see the Welcome screen(clean flash) or the main screen(for dirty flash).

Note : After you finish the setup in the welcome screen, you will notice that the data/mobile signal is not working, which is normal ;)

5. Reboot back into recovery and flash CANADA_DATA_FIX.zip

6. Reboot back into system and Enjoy the latest work of TEKHD :)

Special Thanks to

[MENTION=1380660]iB4STiD[/MENTION] for the Canada Data Fix , the version attached here is modified to exclude the build.prop file so that you do not miss the TEKHD's Build prop tweaks

[MENTION=1823993]Jamison904[/MENTION] for the awesome BioShock kernel

Hope you found this guide useful
