Hi, Dr.ketan,
From Note 3 to Note 4, I flashed Dr.Keten ROM every version.
I am very glad to hear Dr.Ketan ROM support N9208. Thank you very much.

 

[daffie]

During installation of rom (no kernel, no recovery, no add-ons), after 30% of install I get message 'some symlinks failed' and then 'Installer status : 7'

No rom was installed.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
