Same problem here. Did you find any solution?

Man please don't give up working on this project. Note 3 is a great device and we are screwed by having an AT&T locked bootloader phone. Maybe in first-world countries you change phones easily but there are many people (me included) that can't afford new devices and your work save us. Thanks for this port ?
Still have this problem. Not sure if anyone else figured this out.
Experience after 6 months of using this ROM
So, for the past 6 months I have found quite a few problems with this ROM, but it is still usable and essentially turns your Note 3 into a Galaxy S6 running rooted Lollipop 5.0.2 (N900AUCUEOC1).
Issues I have noticed:
#1 Google Play Services crash errors; These happen randomly and the only solution for stopping these is to completely disable Google Play service. (I did this with Titanium Backup by "Freezing" the App).
#2 S-Pen "Air Command" is not functional; You cannot use the button on your S-Pen, it serves no purpose.
#3 Surround Shot Camera feature crashes the camera; The Surround Shot 360 degree camera function makes the default camera app crash, you can still use the Panorama (left to right) camera but not the 360 one.
#4 Privacy Mode is not functional; Privacy mode (Galaxy S6 feature) cannot be enabled, it does not port over to Note 3 correctly.
#5 Festival Effect/Themes crashes/not functional; If you want to use the Festival Themes (animated background) you will have a crash and themes cease to function.
#6 Contacts crashes occasionally; If you tap contacts or phone it will crash sometimes, a minor inconvenience but it will work the 2nd time you run it.
#7 Screen Auto-Brightness Contrast issue; Sometimes when you turn on your screen it will be insanely bright with high contrast but will fix if you turn the screen off and on again.
I use my Note 3 in a minimal way (Phone, SMS/MMS, Internet browser, Camera, Mobile hotspot, and some other small apps) so these issues do not affect me greatly, as they do not hinder my use of the phone.
The ROM removes some bloatware and comes with some pre-installed apps that you can uninstall or keep. I also disabled all google apps (because of Google Play Services error), so I need to re-enable Google Play services if I want to download/update an app or use an app that uses google services. But I do not use any google related apps and do not need to update any of my apps so this is not a problem for me.
It is still a very nice ROM!

You must disable Google Play Services, this will prevent you from using Play Store and any other Google apps or apps that use it. I used Titanium Back to disable it, before this I used Package disabler but this ROM prevented me from using it. You can find other apps that let you disable apps though.
The pop-up will no longer appear, but you must re-enable Google Play services if you want to use google things.

Also, I had used this ROM for a very long time and noticed how behind-the-times it had fallen. This ROM is stable but has a few quirks I could not stand:
- Youtube: Rendered video would stick on frames, causing unwatchable videos.
- Play Store Error: Possible to have the google store running with 'infrequent' errors, but still just too much.
- Many Aurora features are non-functional where stock with Xposed would do the job.
I believe I have posted here before wanting to investigate the play store fix, but frankly, after moving on to a slightly less dated ROM, I am happy once again. This ROM was king of its time though in my opinion.

@FathomKing
I'm curious, what ROM would that be? Assuming you mean for this same type of phone.

Any solution for google play services fc? Due to this error I can't use and login to snapchat. Help plz
Disable google play services completely. Its the only way, you just have to turn it on whenever you want to update an app or use something google related.
Any particular procedure to flash? Requisite? Firmware? Bootloader? Thanks
The Custom ROM isn't there in the link you provided.
Please could you send another link that has the Custom ROM?
Thanks.
