Hi!

As @gj86 is stopping support for hlte* I'll be taking care of it from now on.

I'm also maintaining some other devices on crDroid, so I'm going to try to keep the common parts standard and not made specific Note 3 changes that may break other devices, that's why I'll be starting from a clean tree and not follow the one @gj86 has.

I only own the SM-N9005, so I'll need help on testing the other models.

Please let me know the problems that appear after switching from @gj86 builds (last one on December 2021) so we can try to find solutions for them.

I'll start uploading new builds with version 7.14 of crDroid starting on January 2022.

Regards.

The old thread by @gj86 is still available here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...id-7-x-for-samsung-galaxy-note-3-hlte.4284449 and may have important info.

Please note that @gj86 won't give further support for Note 3 like he has expressed on his thread, so, if you have a problem with the device from 7.14 and later versions, please comment them here so that we can address it properly. I'll be the responsable for those builds from now on. Of course I hope @gj86 can give me a hand when needed, as he knows the device far more than I do, but let's leave that as a last resort ;-)

I thank @gj86 for his great support for the device till now and I hope I won't breat it too bad on the new builds.

I also won't be building version 6 anymore, so if you are on version 6, you better update to version 7 once we stabilize the new 7.X series built by me. I'm sure the fellow testers will start posting how things are going as soon as we have the new builds around.

I hope we have 7.14 with January patches ready soon.

Regards.

thanks for the support...this phone is eternal...

Many thanks! Can't wait to flash this.

 

[tuthanika]

Thank you for continuing the journey with us

This phone won't die. Thanks for your commitment to the old beast. After the EOL announcement I was 100% it was the end of custom roms for note 3.

While I could get a new phone, and probably will soon (a bit scared of note 3 reliability at it's age), it just keeps doing what I need it to do. Still my daily driver although I'm on A7.1.2 for better speed. Can't wait to try out newer versions again.

When I get a new phone I'll hold onto my n9005 for assisting with testing.

Again thanks for not letting it die.

Cool !! Thanks for keeping the Note 3 alive mate!!

 

[pigliang]

can you add the model SM-N9002 (china dualsim) to support? this phone could not charge the battery after flashing the lineage os, there was a file can fix the usb problem, but it only works on android 8 & 9

 

[Darkfirelion02]

I can confirm i got build number RQ3A.211001.001 working on the SM-N900T (usa Tmobile)with full service ( Bluetooth,wifi,cell,mobile data,GPS) and fast enough to keep up with my lg astro 5. I did have a system ui crash on first boot and I noticed i still seem to have a issue with power drain i have it plugged in completing setup and its still dropping its like the phone isn't charging the battery but using the ac power will try magisk later

 

[Tweakforce_LG]

When will A12 CrDroid 8.x become your focus over 7.x?

 

[Darkfirelion02]

Hey yall look as you can see i do have it running on a samsung galaxy note 3 SM-N900T with magisk but as you can see i seem to have a issue with power drain the last picture is on a fresh install and i cant turn off fast charge either i've cold chagred hot chagred i even tried a device reset where you pull the battey and with battery out press and hold the power button for 1min put the battery back, charger cords, and charger ports it will jump up to 1800ma for like a .5 of a min then back to 350ma i've tested all the different battery states but still end up with a dead phone Please Help I love this phone

Thx for keeping my Note3 alive. Checking for 7.14 every day! Will my 7.13 crdroid discover 7.14 via OTA or not?

You should be able to get it via OTA without problem whenever we have it, I hope to have it during the weekend, I'm starting to build right now.

 

[flo108]

A like is not enaugh! I must put it in words too! So, thank you so much bestiatester for your hard work and dedication! Chapeau!

Aah...super! Take your time! Better an error free release than an erroneous one! .

 

[bestiatester]

Well, thanks, like I said before... We'll be needing testers here
I'll be testing hlte on my devices but when I test it I'll upload it and then you'll have to test it, and the other hltes... well, those I cannot even test, so it's up to you.

When hltechn is available i will for sure flash it and do basic tests, unfortunately i'm very limited in time these days to do deep tests as i used to do. Hopefully some other hltechn tester will come forward to support.

I will install it and use it. When I notice shortcomings I willl let you know.

 

[bestiatester]

So... there it goes, all 4 device builds for 7.14 uploaded, hope you enjoy it.
