I just froze all the Samsung junk. I don't use it for anything. If it causes a problem I'll dirty flash. I just don't like the words security or update if you know what I mean. This is my first go with this ROM and I really like it. Gets the most attention from the themers. And I like the stability and simplicity. Has just the right amount of tweaks. Nice job, I thank you!

Hey @dwitherell any updates?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Free mobile app
I'm attempting to hold off until TMo gets their official 4.4.4 update... not sure why they are the last carrier this time around, but it is what it is. There was a semi-recent (still 4.4.2) update that I could rebase on... but I've had 5 rebase experiences w/ the n3 on 4.4.2 (well an initial base and then 4 rebases I suppose), so I am trying to hold out assuming 4.4.4 will be coming along soon. Once it has - as promised a while back (to some TMo folks) I will rebase on the 4.4.4 stuff.

I've sort of stalled a bit to be honest... I do have a few things hammered out since the last update, but nothing huge, and real life has been all kinds of demanding taking away from my tinker time quite a bit. I've been occupying myself lending a hand to other folks mostly... but I agree it has been a bit since the last update... at some point when time, inspiration, or a 4.4.4 update hit I will have to get on things again :)

That's wassup man. This is one of the most polished roms we got on our ATT variants. Didn't know if you was done with it or not. Keep up the good work.

Lol - well since you stopped by... I haven't done any rom stuff lately, but i have been entertaining myself with rebuilding tsmparts from scratch using android studio. Never did anything like this before, and it won't elicit much change from the end-user perspective, but it's been a ton of fun figuring things out!
Man i wrote something else and somehow i deleted it. It was funny though. But thanks for the ROM. Ill be looking forward to some updates from you guys

Will the 4.4.4 one be compatible with safestrap? Or are you just getting some features from it? For all I know there is no way (yet) to get safestrap working with 4.4.4. Unless you got something figured out which will be legen-wait for it. Wait for it. D you're awesome-wait for it-dary. Lol

That... I do not know, though I would highly doubt it if such things are not compatible as they are. That is an area I know next to nothing about (scratch that - I know nothing about it), and would be at the mercy of those far smarter than I to figure out.

That being said, if it is not possible, I have some small things I've put together a while back that I never bothered sharing... so if nothing else there would be a little itty bitty bit more on 4.4.2.

Rather sad that things are so locked down for those so inclined to tinker. Say what you will about differences in carrier service, from a device perspective I am thankful TMobile has resisted the lock-it-down trend!

Its because their service sucks and they need to push sales. Offering that may be a strategic selling point for them though

Well service varies, it's not as broad capable as vzw or att that's for sure, but it's done just fine by me :)

That being said, I wonder if unlocked devices actually impacts their sales at all... most don't care about such things unfortunately.

Hmm - are others having gps issues? This sort of thing gets reported on occasion, but tends to end up being a hit-or-miss issue whose solution varies based on the person having the issue. I haven't heard of this issue in quite a while, but it often re-emerges as time passes. That's all a long-winded way of saying nope, no solid explanation or one-fix-for-all solution unfortunately.

It's like a combination of 2 and 3. From what I've read it seems like a software problem on 4.4.2 Note 3 devices. 4.4 seemed to fix a majority of the problems....guess im going to need that update on 4.4 whenever it rolls out for this ROM

Go to Play Store and download an app called GPS Fix by Android Labs and try it, i used to have those problems back in the Note 2 days since this app never had any problems with gps. I also use GPS status & toolbox to download gps assistance data or a-gps for short.
