Photo name and Led

I'm really enjoying this rom but I didn't manage in some customizations

Does anyone know if there is:

- a way to change how photos are named because I'd like the format 20180306_182238 (for example) without the word IMG before?

- a way to choose colour of led assigned to specific notifications?

im using synergy kernel, already installed note buddy and CM Spen add on but still not working. maybe there's still some settings i have to make?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] szkatulk:
In CM Spen detection must be enabled, and settings in Note Buddy should be made (like handwriting keyboard, applications to be evoked etc.). In general, you should play for the while and then it is working.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] svbarbosa:
I am planning to release today a new setup. Probably the last Nougat setup.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] svbarbosa:
New Setup - Xenial B26X / Magisk

New setup is up. I have just updated posts #1 and #2.

Xenial kernel is back. Not the lastest build, but build 26X. In my tests this is the rock stable build.

If you do flash Xenial do not report any bugs in RR thread. To report a bug you must first go back to stock kernel by dirty flashing RR and Magisk. If you are still able to reproduce the bug then you may post it in RR thread.

If you are already running my previous setup follow the instructions below to update.

It will be a dirty flash. You will not loose your configuration / data. :)

If you are using Substratum overlays, uninstall them before flashing and reapply them later.

To be on the safe side, as always, make a nandroid backup before starting. ;)

First download the needed files:

-

open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20180311.zip

-

Magisk-v16.0.zip

-

[Hlte][Xenial-b26x][02.01.18][N7.1-GSM].zip

Then follow these steps:

- Reboot into recovery

- Advanced Wipe -> Wipe System

- Flash RR-N-v5.8.5-20180101-hlte-Official-vidwhal.zip

- Flash [Hlte][Xenial-b26x][02.01.18][N7.1-GSM].zip

- Flash Magisk-v16.0.zip

- Flash open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20180311.zip (or the one you prefer)

- DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING!

- Reboot System

Please be patient. It may take around 3-4 minutes to boot.

You´re all set. Enjoy!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MSuomi:
Installed. Booted up as always :silly:

Thanks again. Now just waiting for first stable "Urea"-update :p

Though I'm perfectly fine with this also. What I have been looking at Oreo-thread, they have still some work to do :)

P.S. Why I cannot anymore click the Thanks!-icon? Well, I can click it, but nothing happens! xD
[Galaxy Note 3 General] GALEARK:
Tx Svbarbosa for your continus work

I have two little (noob) questions for you:

I previously installed rev10. You said to do a dirty flash but do I have to flash another time the same rom RR-N-v5.8.5-20180101-hlte-Official-vidwhal.zip that I already installed for rev10?

The OTA update option in the "various" tab is not working?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] svbarbosa:
1 - Yes, you have to wipe system and dirty flash the rom again.

2 - I never use OTA so my honest answer is I don't know.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] szkatulk:
Thanks for your great job

:good: I have updated the kernel to Xenial. After one day of tests, I have 2 observations:

1) Everything is working smoothly, battery life is slightly better than on Synergy.

2) The slightly negative phenomena is that phone is a bit more "worm" which is influencing the values shown by sensors (e.g. weather station). Synergy is "cooler" in this respect, but this is a minor issue.

Anyhow this is great ROM with [MENTION=3342533]svbarbosa[/MENTION] valuable fine-tuning. I do not see any sense to change to Oreo with all the problems, imperfections etc.

Thank you very much for the second life to the Note3 phone which is technically still very good.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] eaglos:
Have been running this great Rom for 5 days and is a nice upgrade from the various 6.x Roms and kernels.

Couple of issues

1. Bluetooth file transfer does not work when file is located in the external sd card.

Transfer fails with error "unknown file".

2. When the phone is put on mute, every video makes a loud instant sound when

it starts playing and then it is muted. Same thing happens when I skip forward,

a loud instant sound and the the video is muted. It is like the phone forgets

that it is muted, starts playing the video normally and then remembers that

it is supposed to be muted and stops the sound.

3. Sim not detected twice, although I have flashed the Nordic Bootloader and Baseband.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] hinn95:
did you dirty flash or clean flash?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] spqromanni:
Hi svbarbosa,

I use your Rock Stable Setup about few weeks and I always flash your updates with clean flashes.

For Xmas I received a couple of BT earphones but they don't work properly (I have done many tests with my wife's S7 and they works well on it) with these last configurations (I don't know if with configurations before Xmas they can work well, I found this issue only when I start my job a few weeks later).

The strage issue is that when I call someone or I start Google Assistant, at the beginning they works well but they stops after 1 or 2 minutes: in calling I heard the other people but the other people stops hearing me, the same with Google Assistant.

In my Experience a thing works or doesn't work, this couple of earphones are intermittent.

Sorry for my bad english, I guess you understand me.

Thank you for your job.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] svbarbosa:
Unfortunately Bluetooth compatibility is sometimes an issue.

My bluetooth devices, car stereo and JBL speakers work well, as does my wife´s car stereo.

You could dirty flash the rom to try using stock kernel. Also post your issue in RRN thread and you may find more help.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] bhovoi:
Theres a new update that shows in my phone. I also check your androidfilehost files and i saw the RR-N-v5.8.5-20180313-hlte-official-vidwhal.zip

Can i dirty flash this update on my N9005? Currently using the last update you have here in the thread.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] svbarbosa:
I am running this build since last Sunday in two phones. So far no issues.

So yes, go ahead and dirty flash it.

I want to use it for at least one more week before updating my instructions.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] RozhyarMM:
Will this work on lineage 15.1?

Any one tried it?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] svbarbosa:
Patience you must have, my young Padawan.

If rock stable setup is your wish, Nougat you must keep.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] eaglos:
I did as described in page 1. "Use advanced wipe to wipe System, Data and Cache". Clean Flash I suppose.

I will try to flash Xenial and see if my problems persist.

Edit: I tried Xenial but could not get the phone to work in MTP mode. Only in recovery did Windows 10

"see" it and I was able to transfer files.. So I went back and installed latest RR rom and kept the stock

kernel.

Haven't had the chance to try the Bluetooth thing but I tried to reproduce the instant video sound when

phone has been put on Mute. Latest RR + stock kernel seem to have fixed the issue on the videos that

I have recorded. On the other hand, videos played through firefox still play make an instant sound and

then become muted. Same videos with stock browser don't present this problem.

Hi svbarbosa,

does new update pass your Rock Stable test?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] svbarbosa:
If you're talking about build 0313, yes, it is running well.

I plan to update my setup in a few more days.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] proscribe:
Hi svbarbosa,

Thanks for sharing this guide!

I only ran into one problem in Rev11(11-Mar-18), IR blaster blinks when I check with a camera but none of the remote control apps work.

It seem like your IR blaster fix is needed if the Xenial kernel is installed

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75014207&postcount=85

Would you kindly consider listing it in the post so people who need this function can find it also?:)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] svbarbosa:
Absolutely.

I was running with stock kernel and did not realize IR Blaster still needed my fix when using Xenial kernel.

Had the problem myself yesterday.

I will update my setup with latest RRN build and include the IR blaster fix.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] alekfe:
Hi I like your setup and i want to try . When do you think to latest update? Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] svbarbosa:
I will hopefully update the setup this weekend.

But the change will be to use RRN vidwhal latest build. You may use the same instructions and just flash the latest 2018-0313 build.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] alekfe:
Thank you but it may not be stable, right?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] svbarbosa:
Stable it is, my young padawan! :)

Do you use Dual Boot Patcher?

It makes possible to use multiple OSes on the same mobile.

Does Dual Boot Patcher affect your description to achieve the stable setup?

It works!

Hi, guys!

I've been trying to install this Rock Stable RR-Rom. And I did it.

1. I installed RR-N-v5.8.2-20170309-hlte and open_gapps-arm-7.1-stock-20170425. I sat up all my stuff, all OK but some crashes: GBoard, Keep. No Substratum.

2. I dirty flashed RR-N-v5.8.3-20170421-hlte-Official. All stable, except Subtratum. No themes.

3. I updated the modem, as instructed. I runned BL_N9005XXSGBQD1 and CP_N9005XXUGPQB1 separately, in Odin, BL/CP, after pulling out the batery. It doesn't work if you don't pull it out.

4. I dirty flashed RR-N-v5.8.5-20180313-hlte-Official-vidwhal (first) and open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20180311 (second). Rock steady, including substratum theme Grayce!

Thanks for all the advices, all the patience!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] aftnoon2:
Hi, Note 3 people!

Today I've flashed this ROM on my 2nd Note 3 to give it a try.

I did it almost exactly as described in the OP. The only thing that I've changed was the Recovery, as I forget to flash TWRP on the Odin session.

So, I can say that, at least on my phone, the flash was successful with a phlilz clockwork 6.4.8 recovery.

First boot took about 2 minutes only, and 2nd flash was also successful.

As an anecdote, I must say that I was playing with some dangerous environment, as the battery was 16% at the beginning and 4% at the end of the process... (ouufff). And I had time to configure some little things, nothing from Google, because it's very resources consuming.

Thanks to svbarbosa for this useful thread!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] maig4eg:
Forgive my English.

Hello. In your instruction you wrote:

But in Magisk thread i read next:

Who's right?

You must flash Magisk AFTER the custom kernel.

Oi amigo [MENTION=3342533]svbarbosa[/MENTION]

I hope you are all set and ready for the world cup ;)

Do you have any plan to upload a newer release ROM for our old horse Note-3 any time soon in the future?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] svbarbosa:
First I have to clarify that I am not the rom developer. I just wrote this guide. All rom credits go to [MENTION=942201]vidwhal[/MENTION] and RR Team.

I will soon update the guide. It may be the final update. The rom will still be build 2018-0313.

The apps you have listed are ok to remove, considering that you have already installed another launcher app and another keyboard app, to replace Trebuchet and AOSP Keyboard. I use Nova Launcher and SwiftKey.

Since I have no need to save space in /system partition I do not bother removing system apps, so unfortunately I have no additions to your list.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] rikrok:
Yes I am aware that you are this thread manager/owner and not the developer of the ROM.. I was just wondering because in the past you used to update the ROM quite frequently but now it has not been updated since early March.

Why would you not updating in the future..? Are you moving away from Note-3? :confused:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] svbarbosa:
It is sad but Note 3 development is slowing down. So are my thread updates. This is why the next update may be the last.

My guide may never move to Oreo roms simply because Note 3 Oreo roms are not stable enough. :p

The Note 3 is still my main phone and has at least a few more months as so, but it will be replaced probably before year end.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] alekfe:
I have a problem. Sometimes when I make a call, there is no sound.

And If I listen to music when the call comes in, the music is cut off but when it comes back the balance is shifting to the right ear. I need to take the headset off and put it back on.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] pjm77:
No luck here...

Hi guys, I've been trying to flash this rom since the morning, but no joy... I follow the guide to the letter but every single time on the second reboot lockscreen shows up for a second or so and then blue rectangle appears (upper half of the screen) with clock on it and there's nothing you can do from this point on. Cant unlock the screen. Phone is still working, if I long press power button there is a vibration but that's about it. The only thing you can do at this point is pulling the battery out.

Any ideas what is going on? I always start from flashing a total stock 5.0, then TWRP and then modem and BL. Everything is done 100% according to instructions...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] svbarbosa:
Calls using bluetooth or plain phone calls are working fine for me. I do not use a headset, so can not help you with this one.

Please try to get specific help in RR rom thread.

Is your Note 3 a N9005?

Which gapps are you using? Please post the full zip file name.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] alekfe:
I understand. Could it be about the kernel? Which kernels can I use with this rom?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] rayman95:
You have to disable smart cover...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] pjm77:
Thanks guys, managed to figure it out not long ago. It's that damn flip cover sensor, it gets activated because I keep a magnetic cable plug in my microUSB port all the time (either this or it's simply broken but after flashing like 23 times today I couldn't care less...). Has to be switched off on the first run.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] spambayes:
First, full thanks to [MENTION=3342533]svbarbosa[/MENTION] for this thread and the detailed instructions that are tremendously helpful.

I've successfully installed as per the OP and have since updated RR to the latest 13.03.18 version with no new problems. There are, however, two existing issues:

1. Wake up delay from screen off. When the power button or home button is pressed, the screen takes between 2-5 seconds to turn on. This is seriously annoying and makes my phone borderline unusable. I believe the issue is the same or related to this:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75316294&postcount=3453

According to the various suggestions, this seems to be an unresolved bug. Does anyone here have a fix or workaround?

2. Low Bluetooth mic gain / earpiece volume. I rely on my Bluetooth earpiece for many calls and since coming to RR, I find the mic gain/earpiece volume to be much softer than on stock Lollipop. Again, does anyone know of a fix or workaround?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] moalrick:
Thank you very much !!!​
[Galaxy Note 3 General] allluke:
Yes thank you for this thread. Recently had to pull this phone out as my current phone was dropped and its extremely helpful. GPS was not working at all until I flashed the CP and BL as suggested. Now it is perfect.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Soupape50:
Funny because with my first 2 months of using the phone, the wake up delay was snap, no problem. And a 2-3 seconds latency appeared to me too afterwards.

I always get that feeling with ROMS, that theyre so fast when installed but they get dirty and just slow down overtime.

Other than that, this thread is a real dream for us Note 3 users who try to avoid overconsumption and love stable software, so thank you so much OP. I hope these custom ROMs on phones with removable batteries will keep existing, they're our only true way of escaping capitalism and work so well with the idea of "right to repair" :victory:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] pjm77:
Sorry, but this thing is light years from being stable. I've been on it for last 2 weeks and there is something wrong with my phone every time I touch it. Any recommendations for a daily driver?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Timbrin66:
Thanks for the great guide

It was my first time installing a rom and it seems to have worked fine.

Just one minor issue and I hope this is not a stupid question.

How do you add icons to the bottom section of the screen?

A normal Samsung has a row of icons that stays when you scroll between the home screen and other pages.

Is the option in the settings somewhere?

Dear svbarbosa, I have been struggling with my GPS for ages now (lineageos 14.1 by trader418) and your zippy file made it work right away. I am glad it finally works.

Many thanks and as I,too, own two n9005s I will test your setup for RR.

Have a good one

[Galaxy Note 3 General] bdg2:
My first thought is that doesn't make sense. If it runs hotter it's using more power and battery life will be shorter.

Maybe it's only hotter when you're making it work hard and otherwise it's cooler?

Great rom, great kernel, rock solid,packed with features.

Thankyou
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Soupape50:

Safestrap vs TWRP?

I'm using the Alliance ROM v12 for a rooted AT&T Note 3 with Safestrap v3.75, SuperSU, Busybox, etc. When attempting to install TWRP 3.2.1-0 as described in Phase 1, it results in a soft-brick in that recovery mode is impossible to open with a message that non-authorized software has been detected, etc. I was able to ODIN flash a fix for the soft-brick, uninstalled TWRP completely, reinstall SafeStrap resulting in normal access to recovery (via SS). I also tried flashing older versions of TWRP hlte without any success, soft-brick each time.

My question this: Can SS (despite it no longer being developed or supported) be used in place of TWRP, complete the remaining Phase 1 and Phase 2 steps and result in a successfully update to Nougat 7.1.2?

I'll continue to review the TWRP posts, etc. to see if there's something I missed. My eventual goal is to update to Oreo and keep root. Any suggestions or feedback would be highly appreciated! And yes, I do donate to the developers of the ROMs I've used because it's the least I can do to recognize the immense amount of effort and dedication of those developers.

Thanks in advance.
