[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Eleo:
Dear Users:

New version of MagMa NX - VX1 PyeonChang Edition (P.C.E.) will be uploaded in next 24 hours.

Please dont refresh the thread continuously until you see the download link.

There is no prize for a user who downloaded it first

. Please be calm and wait until we announce that it is shared and ready to download.

Some points before you go further:

1.

To make ROM.zip lighter, we had to remove kernels from ROM.zip. What we ask from you is, to install a kernel of your choice before flashing ROM. You will still have gugu0das kernel for s4/note3/s5, and LSS kernel for N9002 & Galaxy J. It means even if you forget it or unable to read this post, you will still be able to have a kernel.
​

About note3 users:

One more remark on kernel point. Upon testing, we found out that phantom kernel 1.2x causes issues when flashed before booting to ROM. The issues it causes are related to IO schedulers on boot. We discussed it with 6h0st and he is currently testing 1.2y version of his kernel with fixed IO scheduler. On older 1.2t version, there is no such issue, but it was brought up on latest 1.2x version (the issue also is not present with previous VX1 ROM, but only with 1.2x and VX1 P.C.E.).

You still can flash phantom kernel 1.2x version after booting to ROM (i.e. after first boot), but please do not flash it before first boot. The issues I observed were:

- Inability to install any apps on first boot.

- All app sizes were marked as 0.0kB

on first boot.

- Green screen before second reboot, showing "Optimizing apps. 19/19" (depending on your app choice number in aroma), "Starting Apps". "Starting Devicetest" and lastly "Boot Complete" texts.

- After second boot, app sizes were normal, apps could be installed.

- After second boot, all images from gallery are not visible (but no problem when viewing those images on 3rd party apps).​

If you flashed with 1.2x and you didnt observe those issues, then no problem. But our test group was very small and we had limited number of devices to try it on. So these are my remarks on it. If you meet any user with those issues shown above, please forward him this post and ask him to reflash ROM using other kernel (my choice would be phantom kernel 1.2t version, link of which is here: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=242119). Codes are:

Hlte=Hlteeur=EUR=N9005,

Hltetmo=TMO=N900T

Hltekor=KTT=N900K

Hltekor=SKT=N900S

Hltekor=LGT=N900L

Hltespr=SPR=N900P

Hltecan=CAN=N900w8

Hltevzw=VZW=N900V

And so on...​

For users who would like to pass safetynet with phantom kernel, please flash kernel logging zip after flashing ROM:

Phantom Kernel Logging​

.

EDIT:

PHANTOM KERNEL 1.2Z HAS BEEN RELEASED AND IS BETTER THAN OLDER versions:

3.

For any users who would like to choose phantom kernel 1.2x, please flash 1.2t before flashing ROM, flash ROM (choosing "do not install kernel" in recovery), boot to ROM, then again go to recovery, flash phantom kernel 1.2x, then flash ROM again, but in "MODs update" mode, and re-set your rooting method.
​

4.

For your convenience, Patrick.H will put up links for you to download a kernel if you would like to flash it before flashing ROM.​

5.

This version of ROM includes updated apps, some framework fixes, update of magisk version to v16.3, updated bootanimation, bootanimationloop and shutdown animation.​

6.

For users who would like to have xposed systemless, magisk v16.3 have changed the setup, so older modules are no longer working unless they get updated by dev themselves. If you need to have xposed systemless, you will have total of 3 options for magisk in aroma: 16.3, 13.3 and 12.0. You can choose either 13.3 or 12.0 if you want to have xposed systemless. After that you can update magisk inside magisk manager app. But note that on latest 16.3 version it will still not work​

7.

In this version, we have optimized ROM apk files, so that you can install more apps from aroma installer. I checked it, and I could install nearly all apps (90% of them) on my system (2.2-2.3GB). I would like to see your results too. Still, all apps cannot fit into normal not-repartitioned system, but it is still a good thing to have as more apps as possible​

8.

Other than boot/shutdown animations, VX1 PCE version will come with its own theme (PyeongChang Edition theme). It will have slighlty themed sms/phone app and round one-line icons in app drawer. If you feel it is not what you like, you can install any other theme from samsung themes app for now (or from XDA themers, like _envy). I will make a MOD with previous icons as soon as I am available.​

9.

As with all other versions of MagMa NX, if you meet any issue, please address it to us as it is asked from you on F.A.Q. post 16th question. Those are the basic information that we need to know to start troubleshooting your issue.​
