Thanks. Those zips didn't work for my 9.0 Pie - they threw up signature verification error. There was a magisk 19.0 zip I downloaded from another thread which didn't give an error when flashed, but still did not root the device - there was no SuperSU after the flash and when I manually...

Please can you give me the link to the supersu that works? I downloaded one, flashed it on TWRP without any errors, but it still didn't give me root.

I flashed this ROM on my T719Y. It is working, but I have tried to flash the root addon several times but it fails. The root addon flash fails on signature verification. When I uncheck Signature Verification, it flashes but I don't get root.

I flashed this (10/11) ROM and I also have a problem with SD card. I had done a NAND backup before wipe/factory reset and flashing. I did the backup onto my 128GB extSDcard. I preferred to do a new install of the apps and only restore with Titanium Backup from the backup as a fallback. One of...

Samsung is killing its smartphone business by trying very hard to be like Apple. Instead of playing up the unique selling points of its smartphone, it is dropping those very features because it thinks it has to be an "iPhone cloner" to succeed. How can Samsung release a "premium" smartphone that...

Many thanks! I now see it is related to the active SIM. I followed the advise here and it works.

The default is just the plain blue wallpaper. But that is not the issue. the issue is that any non-stock wallpaper I select is NOT selectable. But I can select any stock wallpaper, including the live wallpapers.

I am having a strange experience with my Note 3 Neo Duos (N7502). When I install any other launcher (Go, Nova, Solo, etc). It installs fine and I select a theme of my choice. It all looks great. But after SOME HOURS, the wallpaper is replaced with the default wallpaper, which is all blue. Once...

I desperately want to root my Neo SM-N7502 as well. I nearly bricked mine when I tried the Chainfire root file for N750 - it failed to root and would no longer boot. I had to resort to Samsung's recovery procedure.

I am also looking for the root file for the Neo N7502. I tried it with the chainfire N750 image but it failed - I nearly bricked the device but for the Samsung online recovery process!

Can someone tell me why Google Voice does not show up in the Play Store with this ROM? I find it frustrating that I cannot install Google Voice.

I don't think any of the Megas supports either USB host or HDMI. For example I connected a USB host cable to test if my Mega 5.8 would recognise a flash drive. No, it did not detect anything.

That's exactly what mine shows as well. But every official documentation on the I9152 claims it is 1.5GB. I suspect it is only the I9200 series that have 1.5GB.

Everywhere I see that the Mega 5.8 DUOS (I9152) is quoted as having 1.5GB RAM. But mine, which I bought in Nigeria, seems to have only 1GB. Can anyone confirm that Samsung actually drops the specification for certain countries without explicitly saying so?

You can download themes for "Go Launcher" from Play Store - the wallpapers become available to the app drawers of the stock launcher, but not to the lock screen.

Does anyone have a problem uploading a photo for a contact? Mine does not work - when I select a photo during contact edit, it does not upload. I then launch Gallery and select the photo to "Set as" a contact photo. The device screen goes black for a few seconds and then crashes with the message...

My problem with Kaiten Mail and a number of other alternatives is the extremely tortuous way of getting Exchange email to work. I still think the stock email client is good enough. I have configured virtually all my email accounts (including Exchange and gmail) in it without having to wave my...

I would not be surprised. The post says KitKat especially targets low-memory devices as one of its selling points is a new kernel with a smaller footprint to enable apps run smoother on low-memory devices.

A problem that was, thankfully solved within the last few days, is that of creating a Recovery for the Galaxy Mega 5.8. I am not a developer, but I read that the issue is related to the graphics resolution and its incompatibility with existing code for CWM Recovery. Now it seems there are also...

Many thanks for this. I recall some exchanges in this forum when someone said their would "never" be a Recovery for the I9152. I told him never to say "never". You proved me right. Many thanks once again (I have clicked the "Thanks" button).

I see what may be a clue in your story - "Titanium Backup". Avoid it like plague when it comes to restoring applications after flashing a ROM. My advise: Next time you flash a new ROM, during setup, allow Google back up your device. If you do, after flashing a ROM, the latest versions of your...

You would not be able to install AdAway in the usual way because it seems a version of it is baked into the ROM - and it works fine. I also had repeated freezes with the default kernel, but Speedmod solved the problem. Fantastic ROM with Speedmod. Amazing battery life.

Quite the contrary. I installed this ROM as-is after a clean wipe. Surprisingly, I experienced 4 freezes in one day. Then I decided to flash Speedmod kernel 5.5 and, voila, no more freezes. More than that, I had the best battery life I have ever had from any ROM. Attached screenshot tells it all!

If those crash logs are stored in such a critical partition of the device where there is very limited storage, then someone needs to take a hard look. The best ROM is one that does not require me to start prying into specific partitions to make my device work - I want to just flash and use. By...

Unfortunately, I have had to go back to a TW ROM as I could not figure out why this ROM has deposited enough "System Data" - more than 1GB, into the 2GB system partition to the point that it stalls the device. Unfortunate that no one here could help as I have really enjoyed this ROM over the...

I am having a problem of low system storage. I now only have about 110MB left of the 2GB "system storage", and I get the warning that certain system functions would shut down. I have cleared cache, uninstalled some applications, deleted old emails and text messages, but I see no difference. When...

Read the posts from 26Aug (the last 5 days) concerning signal drops. You may need to replace your radio.

You must be right. I did like the XXLSA with the Touchwiz ROMs, so when I saw the ROM as still XXLSA after flashing SuperNexus, I just assumed it had been baked into the SuperNexus. But then it was acting funny. Some learning for me - thanks!

I had the XXLSA which came with the current ROM (SuperNexus 3.0).

I have had the XXLT3 radio for 3 days now and I can say I have had the most stable signal ever with any ROM. I encourage anyone with any signal loss issue with this ROM to try the XXLT3 radio. It may just be all you need.

Thanks for this post - I have clicked the 'Thanks' button. However, the procedure described in the post for replacing the radio in Nexus 4 is unnecessary for N7000 users. Just go to the Radios thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1645202), download and flash one of the other...

I have actually had it happen in the middle of a call.

I have also been experiencing sudden signal drops. Then I reboot and the signal comes back in full. It is not a case of a weak signal (as a contributor suggested), but complete signal loss.

I think your restoring apps from a custom backup was the problem. (I dumped Titanium Backup Pro long ago.) The Backup Pro would seek to restore to exactly the same partitions as they were originally, which may not be the same as your new partitions. I have come to rely on the automatic...

Now let's try to understand what you did: You did a clean wipe, flashed the ROM, flashed the correct gapps, and rebooted. It rebooted normally, and you then set it up. Ordinarily, if you had previously accepted the default to back up your system on Google servers, without doing anything, many of...

Same point I was making - that we should not assume that just because we've not got the solution today does not mean the solution won't come.

Sounds like you are using NX kernel. Are you?

How do you know no one will solve it? Just because it has not been solved does not mean it won't. When you read this whole website you see problems faced by communities, but which were eventually solved by committed developers. Be positive!

Good idea to stay away from NX kernel for now. I recommend Kernel_CM10.1_Official_20130527_n7000_Exynos4 from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1789397 There is a more recent version of this kernel, dated 20130605, but it is not as good as the 20130527 on battery life...

OK. If you indeed did a full wipe before flashing the ROM, it would seem you have an app that is really sucking all your system resources. Have a look at the Battery history under Settings to see if there is a specific app taking up huge battery consumption. Also, take out your external SD card...

It is obvious he/she did not follow the instructions for flashing the ROM.

Download radios here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1645202

My understanding is that the choice of radio has nothing to do with the ROM, but your geographical area. You can flash any radio with any ROM, but presumably you get the best radio performance based on matching the radio to your location.

It works for me too!

Many thanks friend! This is a major step forward! I am not in a hurry for a custom Recovery - this rooting is more important.

It is in the Kernels repository: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1789397

Thought I should show off my battery life with Kernel CM10.1_Official_20130527_n7000_Exynos4. Amazing!

I agree. The thread could be renamed "Still no easy way to root Mega 5.8 (I9150/I9152)".
