Hello xda.

I installed Cyanogenmod on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 today with no problems at all, however I've found something that seems a bit weird. (I know there is supposed to be bugs in nightlies, of course, but I thought i'd ask anyway.)

In the performance settings of the tab, it keeps the minimum CPU frequency to 1190mhz. If I put it to 300mhz, it will work, but as soon as I exit out of the performance tab, it goes back to 1190mhz. I figured that my phone was quite hot when I didn't use it, and that's how I found out.

Have anyone seen this on the latest CM11 nightly for the Note 3? I hope somebody out there know how I can fix it.

Many thanks.

Thanks a lot for your reply.

I've heard a little about kernels. The thing is, that this is the first time I've ever put a custom rom on an android device, so I'm not really 100% familiar with all this yet, however if the custom kernel won't be able to brick my phone, I sure would give that a try.

Should I go with the "stable" version or the beta version of the kernel?

Thank you a lot :)

I'm taking the beta version then!

- So... I just tried to flash it with Odin, but as it is a .zip file and not .tar, I can't do that.

I do have TWRP on my device, so I can use that, I am not very sure on how to do that though?

I'm sorry for the noobish questions. First time I installed a custom rom :)

So, just to be 100% sure, I am going to download and install the "NEW BETA KERNEL v3.02 b1" Right? :)

download rom on your phone flash it with twrp then flash the same gapps with twrp (must be the same gapps or it will factory reset)
thats it done

That's amazing! :) I'll see if I will do that soon.

I installed the kernel and everything looks fine, however the performance tab is still acting weird. I think I will install a CPU app.

So this is it? There is no new settings I need to check or anything? :)
