Good news! :victory:

I have build a twrp edition which is able to decrypt! It took over 70 build tests and many many trial & error but I'm so glad to say that I got it working!! So damn great! :victory:

I currently have to sort out some code cleaning stuff and fix some minor issues but then I will be either able to provide a fully working 3.0.2 twrp or was able to push my code fixes upstream. Stay tuned :highfive:

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] resudo:
So I'm thinking of buying a used Note 3 because my old Note 2 died and I have a few questions. (Please answer them in order)

1)What are the different versions of the Note 3 (IK that the 4G is the snapdragon model and the exynos model is the normal note 3, am i missing something?)

2)Is there still support for both of the models?

3)Which model has better development support?

4)Does the Exynos model have AOSP support or only TW?

5)Is there any ROM for the Exynos model with S6 and/or Note 4 features?

Thanks a lot in advance!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenny1991:
1- there are many. But yes these 2 are main.

2- from sanmsung? Barley. Devs? All you want.

3- SM-N9005

4-both i think

5-look at development forums for note 3 and you will see.

I recommend snapdragon SM-N9005 due to better dev support here. Some great custom roms it has here.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] resudo:
Thanks! I'm happy that the community still cares about this device! I will try to get the snapdragon version but I would love if more people answered my questions so i can learn the opinions!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devilsdouble:
1- There are two versions only, hardware wise. Snapdragon and Exynos. But there are probably a zillion version for US carriers, about which I have least interest. In any case, all of them have either SD or Exynos.

2- Snapdragon, yes, Exynos, very minimal. But yes, it's great to see that some new stuffs are cooked for this old champ. But I don't think people will be interested in Note 3 for any longer, as soon as Note 5 goes official, you can think support will be near nil.

3- Snapdragon.

4- As far as I have noticed, I think there is CM for Exynos devices, don't take my word for it though.

5- No idea.

In short, get the Snapdragon version if you can.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
1) The main two versions are the Snapdragon (N9005) and Exynos (N900) variant. Everything else is one of those two for a different region or provider.

2)From Samsung, the usual. (meaning, barely.). From the devs here at XDA, plenty.

3) Snapdragon always has better dev support.

4) no idea.

5) no idea, either. Sorry.

Technically the N9005 4G is the 'normal' device. Or international, or whatever they're calling it this week. This is due to the majority of the countries now having 4G. (it was the other way around 5 years ago.) The N900 3G Exynos was meant for lower-level markets that don't have 4G yet.

Keep in mind that the Snapdragon device comes with an Adreno, and the Exynos has a Mali gpu. As well as the Snapdragon having 2.3gHz, and the Exynos a meagre 1.9gHz processor. So if you intend to game on it, Adreno/Snapdragon is the way to go.

Always go for the Snapdragon version if you have the option.

is that a new recovery or can we use the recovery from CM 11?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zxczxcdani:
Flashed it on my device, MyPhone Agua Vortex (Micromax Canvas 4 A210) and all is running great. Thank you [MENTION=361777]chrmhoffmann[/MENTION]. Hey, can I post this on MMX C4 Forum?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kannanrs:
Hello Chris,

Nice to see a rom with camera working and fm radio as well. I would wish a help from you in solving the camera problems with roms from GamerBoy and Shiv.Gudadmath for canvas4. The problem with inconsistency with sim reception is still around otherwise its buttery smooth.

I ran into problems with rooting and any tip would be appreciated.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] zxczxcdani:
[MENTION=361777]chrmhoffmann[/MENTION], is the storage swapped? On Titanium Backup it says, SD Card: 4 GB and Ext SD Card: 10 GB.

Edit 1: I think this is how kitkat works. Lol, nevermind this.

I am also struggling to gain root access as [MENTION=4017843]kannanrs[/MENTION] reported earlier.

Edit 2: I have workaround on how to gain root access. I am not sure if this will work for you but it did for me.

1. Download KingoRoot.

http://www.kingoapp.com/android-root/download.htm

2. Root Phone. Strangely, it will fail but if you have a Root Checker app, it says it's rooted.

3. Download SuperSU-Me

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=darkslide.com.supersume&hl=en

4. Open SuperSU-Me and it will automatically remove KingUser and friends and install SuperSU.

Edit 3: After a reboot, my root's gone. Also, there's no reboot on power menu.

Edit 4: It is swapped.

Edit 5: Can't get root access, tried TowelRoot, KingRoot, KingoRoot, Framaroot, Genius Root. None of them worked.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] zxczxcdani:
Nothing. It still can't be rooted. Let's just wait for it to be pre-rooted. :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chrmhoffmann:
You can do "adb root" which starts adb in root. "adb shell" then drops you in a root shell.

Then you can change settings.

Will see if I can find a working root.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] kannanrs:
Thank you....Shiv...I did enjoy this ROM..but the motherboard had to be replaced for some weird problem..so end of the road with canvas4......
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Major A:
Never used Xposed on my Stairway. I wasn't near a computer when problem occurs, so I installe local tools to provide a logcat when it happens. It's really not a big deal, I just have to press volume rocker once, and PWR button works again. It never fails to work to turn on phone, just when turning it off.

By the way, battery backup is great under kitkat, as RAM management also. It's a real pleasure to use it as a daily ROM, and with my Stairway, I never encountered a charging problem (turned OFF or ON) since 0.8.x branch. Network works great, and roaming is managed better under KK than under JB without battery draining with a Free Mobile SIM card. So it's a keeper !

I think it might be a great stable base ROM for porting !

[Miscellaneous Android Development] zxczxcdani:
Wow, thank you so much for keeping this device alive. :D

EDIT: Since this one's super stable now, are you considering on building CM13? That would be so awesome.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zxczxcdani:
Hello, does anyone here still experience the charging bug? After some time of usage, you can't charge unless you do a full reboot.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chrmhoffmann:
I don't have this charging bug.

I never got a proper description of it, nor dmesg or logcat when it happens with a device description (which device is it exactly, is there a stock kernel source, etc.) ;)

Chris
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zxczxcdani:
Just re-flashed the ROM, I won't install Xposed or any modules and let's see. Maybe there are apps that's conflicting with the charging.

Haha! Yeah, I always forget to give a logcat, sorry about that.

PS: I install Xposed to remove that big ugly G beside the signal icon and make the signal color to white.

Edit: Okay, here's a description: When the phone gets used for let's say, a day. Then you charge it up, the led turns red and the battery charging animation runs but it won't increase, in fact it's decreasing. But once you do a full reboot, charging's good.

Now, I just flashed the ROM again, no Xposed and it charges just fine. I'll get you a logcat Chris, I'll just need to use it up a bit then try to charge it with and without Xposed, prolly it 2 days. :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chrmhoffmann:
You have which device exactly? Are there any official kernel sources for this?

Chris
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zxczxcdani:

Hi, my signal doesn't seem to be that strong, I put the modem file and mddb folder from my stock rom but I still get low signal. Do I have to copy more files from the stock rom? Device is Agua Vortex.

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chrmhoffmann:
Did you rename the modem file?

Chris
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zxczxcdani:
Yep. I'll find another modem file from the canvas 4 thread.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] rishivg:

charching problem

Hello,

I just installed this ROM 2 days ago and I have the problem with charging the battery, when the phone is ON :

I connected my phone in ON position to the charging cable. The % increase to 85%. When I disconnected the cable, the % has decrease down to 1% is less than 2 minutes.

I switched OFF the phone before the automatic OFF, then the power button didn't react at all until I removed the battery.

Note that when I removed the battery, it was not hot enough. I mean that if it would have been charged by the cable, it would have been hotter than it was. It seams that the increase of the % was a fake one.

Except this problem, it's a good job.

Note that I'm a newbee, so I don't know which device I use. But I can say that I didn't install any special software, except the ROM.

Thanks a lot. This rom brings new life to my wiko stairway.

I am on version 0.8.5 and the only problem for me is charging the phone. I can't do it with my friends powerbank anymore only plugged into the wall.

Is this normal/expected? Will it be fixed?

update (28/05) : just installed version 0.8.7 and the problem is fixed. Thanks again for this rom!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bauuuuu:
no update this month ???
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gause71:
Thanks a lot for your effort.

Now it works fine for me, at least I think so right now.

At first it took hours of watching youtube videos for understanding the 3 points of the installation instruction but now it's a thing of 20 minutes.

Then I had some trouble with my google apps, of course cause I had no gapps installed.

After installing them my keyboard doesn't work anymore with no available package.

What helped is to install both of them at the same time but the gapps before the ROM.

Edit: What a bummer. It only worked cause there were nor google apps again on my phone.

After gapps, now my keyboard isn't working like before. Hmmm...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] diesmo:
Great ROM!

Hi,

Thank you for your work, the ROM is working very well on my wiko stairway.

I noticed 2 minor problems :

- Most often the charger is not working, i need to switch off the phone, remove the battery, put it back, and then it starts charging

- After that, when i start the phone, i need to manually configure date and time, it never use the network time (this problem is minor)

Apart from that, everything is working (wiki, gps, dual sim, camera, etc).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] eric_arbras:
broken links?

Timeout on the server to download the files...?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] grafithaka:
It seems all the links to the ROM are broken. Does anyone still have a zip of them available somewhere? I do have only version wiko-stairway-kk444-CH-0.8.3.zip .

EDIT: my wiko-stairway-kk444-CH-0.8.3.zip is corrupted too. Sorry.

EDIT2: I managed to salvage some corrupted files from an AOSP-build I found on the internet and repackaged it. This "Frankenstein"-build works when I flash it on my wiko stairway, so it is finally again more than a paperweight. If anyone needs it, drop me a message and I can upload it somewhere. Also if anyone does have a modem.img which would work for the wiko stairway I would be happy to have that, I have a partially (only one 3G frequency) working one.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] chrmhoffmann:
Hi,

Oups, damn!

I made a mistake in the kernel so it actually cannot work.

I'll post a new update in a few minutes (it takes looooong time to upload) with more accelerometer drivers. For the moment I will enable the following ones that were part of the original wiko source configuration: bma250_auto bma222E_auto kxtj2_auto. The wiko stairway has the bma250.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] psychoticdemon:
Could someone please elaborate on this?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chrmhoffmann:
Yes, there are some modifications from wiko on the charger and battery drivers. I have not yet ported them to the kernel, but it works and I charged it for quite a few times already. But beware: as I said, this is a custom rom and I am not an expert. So please charge it only under surveillance, btw: this is true for all custom roms ...

Chris
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chrmhoffmann:
Yes, that's what e.g. CPUZ says, but this is plain wrong and most likely a typo from Tinno/Wiko who ever. I e.g. have the bma250 running and it also shows above. This seems to be some static text that you cannot change for devices who support more than one. The bma050 is not even on the list of configured devices.

I'll change this text to be at least accurate on the wiko stairway (bma250).
