[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] ExiaGN:
READ CAREFULLY

Ok people are having issues with the original thread which can be found HERE the thread is just so cluttered, and instead of it being cleaned I'll just make a new one for people with the correct information so its not as cluttered. I have been running this rom now for little over 4 days no issues following the help of JRunRun and njdan30 ( So give them thanks )

I can confirm SMS/MMS/BT/GPS all work with no issues ( or with Fixes )

This is JRunRun's installation information that allows the ROM to work flawlessly and worked for me with minor tweaks ( I always try the path of least resistance first before taking the hard way :p :p :D )

TWRP 2.8.7.0 seems to work without issues.

EASY WAY ( TRY FIRST BEFORE YOU TRY THE MANUAL MANIPULATION OF FILES )

1. downloaded - ROM 3.3 DarkLord S7E APEK

2. downloaded - SLIM_APNs SLIM_APNs

3. downloaded - SU SuperSU 2.74

4. placed ROM and APN.zip and Supersu on my external sdcard

5. booted recovery (twrp 2.7.8.0), (

I used 3.0.2

)

6. WIPE - Dalivk/Cache/System/Data (

Then for good measure I factory reset

)

7. Install -- loaded flashable zips from external sd to install

a. ROM 3.3 --> add more zips

b. Slim APN zip

c. Supersu --> started the flash

8. Flashed ROM --> chose sprint phone version, chose "SPR" as my csc in Aroma,

DID NOT

reboot on finish ( This is where people may be getting confused..)

Select SPRINT MODEL N9xxx then select SPR as the Sales Code

ALSO there is another option that is showed here that DID give me issues there is 3 of them. 2 of them are WIPE options the 3rd is NO WIPE keep settings and app data I choose the 3rd option cause I noticed when I tried the first 2 my SMS would not work, and my WIFI would constantly diconnect

9. Allowed twrp to finish installing flashable apn and supersu zips

10. wiped cache/dalvik, reboot to system (

10-20 min reboot

).

8. Did not restore anything on system setup. Entered wi-fi info but turned it off afterwards. ( I just skipped this all together until the phone was completely ready to go )

Once loaded you will pick your language, and a option will show up wanting you to consent to sending usage data, uncheck mark that and continue setup

11. Loaded new kernel -- darkera 1.9 lte vzw (doubt this step is necessary but easy to find with a google search samsungvn) ( If you need the kernel link you can ask for it here and we will send it too you in a PM ) ( I am running the SPRINT kernel which seems to be very stable )

MANUAL FIX FOR SMS/MMS

1. Backed up stock OF1 apns-conf.xml to computer

2. downloaded - ROM 3.3 DarkLord S7E APEK

downloaded - SLIM_APNs SLIM_APNs

downloaded - SU SuperSU 2.74

3. Replaced apns-conf.xml file in SLIM_APNs.zip with the stock apns-conf.xml file saved in step 1, rezipped and saved with new zip name "stock_APNs_modded.zip" Some people are just flashing the slim apn without adjusting it and having succes.

4. placed ROM and APN.zip and Supersu on my external sdcard

5. booted recovery (twrp 2.7.8.0)

6. WIPE - Dalivk/Cache/System/Data [/COLOR] (

Then for good measure I factory reset

)

7. Install -- loaded flashable zips from external sd to install

a. ROM 3.3 --> add more zips

b. modded Slim APN zip

c. Supersu --> started the flash

5. Flashed ROM --> chose sprint phone version, chose "SPR" as my csc in Aroma

Once loaded you will pick your language, and a option will show up wanting you to consent to sending usage data, uncheck mark that and continue setup

9. change /efs/imei/mps_code to "vzw" via ES File app <-- vzw must be lower case

10. build prop changes:

ro.product.name “cm_hltevzw”
ro.product.device “hltevzw”
telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice="1"
ro.telephony.default_network="8"

Added the following lines after the ro.telephony.default_network line:

ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric=311480
ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha="Verizon Wireless”
ro.cdma.homesystem=64, 65, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83
gsm.sim.operator.numeric=311480
gsm.operator.numeric=311480
gsm.sim.operator.alpha=Verizon
gsm.operator.alpha=Verizon
ro.net.apnwhitelist=fota,ims,supl,verizon,cbs,mms
ro.net.apnroamingwhitelist=ims
ro.net.apnpolicywhitelist=fota,ims,verizon,verizon 800
ro.net.apnroamingblacklist=fota,verizon800

11. used Galaxy Tools to make sure mps_code and sales_code is set to "vzw"

12. Loaded new kernel -- darkera 1.9 lte vzw (doubt this step is necessary but easy to find with a google search samsungvn) ( If you need the kernel link you can ask for it here and we will send it too you in a PM ) ( I am running the SPRINT kernel which seems to be very stable )
