"- Implemented The Screen On/Off Toggle Mod In The Messaging App! [Now You Can Set If You Want Your Phone Screen To Turn On/Off Whenever You Receive Notifications."

Right there your going to make a lot of people happy.


"- Some More Native Tethering Modifications!"

Hopefully that will fix my weird limited websites problem when using native tethering.


Thank you again for this wonderful rom!

Remember as i said before, DO NOT DIRTY FLASH. I think that's why most users have issues and i have already stated this above my instructions on how to install the rom to always perform a full wipe on any of my updates, but i think some users just go straight to the download link.

Follow the instructions in the OP section WITHOUT skipping not one step and you will not have no problems. Also if restoring from titanium backup make sure to use this app...

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.viper.tbrestorefixerfree

Right AFTER you restore following a reboot on your device to fix any app force closes. You have to do this everytime right AFTER you restore anything.

I am on the latest version of TWRP - I have successfully restored nandroids previously - I saw this update and figured I would flash it - I did a full clean flash - after flashing - everything is borked - I am in a state of constant reboots - I did have an SD card in my phone when I originally installed recovery - so maybe that is the root my problem - but regardless - my phone is useless right now - I think I have to go back to TMOBILE.

Oh well - not your fault Jovy - but it looks like the NOTE 3 is extremely sensitive to being rooted/custom roms......

Man, I wan to root my phone, but the fact that I have a SD card and prefer to use TWRP (which people seem to be having the most trouble with) is bothering me, maybe I should just wait it out a bit , through I really wanted to download the mod to increase phone volume!! :/

I tried to Odin back to stock and I was able to install using ODIN but the phone continued to bootloop after I ondined to stock.

I have since taken my phone to TMOBILE - REROOTED and now am contemplating whether I should flash a rom or not or flash a recovery.

I am very nervous. Don't thnk I can return another one if this happens again??? Someone said that they thought it might be related to whether you have an SD card in when you install recovery - so maybe I will try to install TWRP without an SD Card in place.

???

I would try to install a recovery without the SD card and go from there. Best of luck to you...

I don't have any problems with restoring a backup and I did not have an sd card in my phone when I rooted or when I flashed recovery

I'm not going to clog the thread up with us going back and forth but you're not giving out accurate information. There has been a number of people who are stuck bootlooping after restoring a nandroid. Check the TWRP and CWM threads, the devs are telling people not to restore. Yes, we all tried using odin to revert and slit does not work. I'm just trying to save people some headaches.

Yea I didn't say restore. And yes. Running odin and flashing a the stock rom/stock rooted rom will most definitely bring your phone back from the dead. Read before you waste my time with useless posts. This is common sense stuff..

All users have to remember, if your odining back to stock you have to go into the stock recovery that the stock odin installs "The one that shows the android guy in the middle" and perform a data/factory reset in it to fix the bootloop.

There is nothing wrong with using an sd card i have a 32GB sandisk card that i have been flashing my roms from without one issue.

Just FYI anyone that's thinking about flashing. I rooted using auto root then installed tw recovery using goo manager (yes I have a64gb SD card in and it is formatted to fat32) and installed first ROM ran incredible.... New version came out downloaded it on my phone to the sdcard... Rebooted into recovery using goomanager... Formatted deal and cache installed new v2 ROM along with normal volume and transparent widget rebooted and it works like a charm no problems as of yet been running like normal for about 4 hours now.

I did not try that - but I appreciate the heads up. I don't doubt anything you say - but am curious - the people who are saying some of the issue might be related to the SD card in some way are suggesting that it seems to be happening to people who have an SD card installed when they first installed recovery - do you recall if you had an SD card then or not? Just curious ....

It shouldnt be related to an sd card because samsung supports sd cards for their devices and i make sure i always use one to flash/restore using custom recovery.

Most likely everyone that flashes a stock odin tar using Odin doesn't perform a data/factory reset after the stock odin tar has successfully installed, that is something you have to always do.

Also all users have to remember a stock odin tar is odexed so if your on a stock odexed rom and you root it, flash custom recovery, and try to restore a backup of an deodexed rom, it will do more bad than good and will cause massive bootloops.
