Nope.

Can this be updated through keis mobile? Or without a pc I should say?

Is it fairly easy to root? I think I'll wait for an Odin flashable version before I give it a whirl.

Odin flashable version available in the Download Repository. I may create a stock plus root version sometime in the next week, but I'm too busy for the next couple of days to even think about it. Haven't heard if it can be rooted easily; no one has talked about it. If you're adventurous, you could try Framaroot and let us know.

I didn't know about that Framaroot thing. Seems like it'd be easier if it works. Haha. I rooted it by flashing a CWM-based kernel for i9000 in Odin, rebooting into recovery and flashing one of the JB kernels for i777, and then downloaded SU from the Play Store. That long, convoluted method works if Framaroot doesn't.

The radio is working well on CM10. Don't think I'll go back to Samsung. Are newer ROMs free of the brick bug?

One would assume so. They probably had it fixed by 4.0.4. Guess we'll hear about when people start screaming if its not.

Why are we so pumping up about this 4.1.2 release?
Aren't we using 4.1.2 six months ago? and 4.2.2 months ago?
So it is an official release from AT&T, meaning their loyal clients were still running ICS 'til now? Wow

Just rooted using framaroot. Superuser is installed and I am debloating now.

It seems like a good base to tweak and customize once rooted. The modem is fantastic. Probably the best one I've used in my area.

+1.
Even if I did not puke at the sight of a Sammy ROM, would never consider flashing a bloat loaded ATT firmware, ever.

I hated the AT&T ICS ROM, but this one isn't so bad. I would be (and had been until recently) using CM10.1, but my company's email client won't work with Android 4.2, so I'm stuck with needing a 4.1 ROM. I had been using ShoStock 3, which is good in a lot of ways, but it always seems like if it's not an official Samsung ROM or CM, it doesn't really feel "together" for me.
This AT&T JB ROM actually does seem good. Sure it has a bunch of useless Motion gimmick features, and there is the usual bloat, but I was able to root (as mentioned above with Framaroot -- the Aragorn exploit) and disable almost all of the bloat. NFC isn't supported (which is absolutely stupid), but I never had a real use for that anyway. There are lockscreen shortcuts, resizable widgets, and pretty much all of the good JB features are there. In the ICS ROM they made the Power settings widget completely useless by making it take up 2 rows so it could include useless toggles, so I was hoping to see that they had gone back to the single row widget, but it looks like they dropped it completely. In general, things are responsive and smooth, and bright and happy, without being too cartoonish.
Don't get me wrong, I'd rather be on CM, and if my IT department ever updates the Lotus Traveler software to a version that actually works with 4.2, I'll do it in a heartbeat, but in the meantime, I think this is the best 4.1 ROM I could ask for.

Did the update get rid of the android keyboard for any of yall? I updated and I noticed the android keyboard is missing. I went to get it from the play store and it says its already installed but I can't find it anywhere in my phone. Any suggestions?

Just got a Amaze on 4.0, is it worth rooting, etc?

Just curious. The phone seems excellent out of the box and normally I'm all for rooting and what not. But wanted to get some opinions on this one. Is it worth it?

I haven't rooted and I haven't found a need to, yet. I probably will when I find an AOSP ROM that I like.
If you want the vanilla ICS look and feel on your home screen, try Apex launcher. It's faster and snappier than using sense.
I would say yes, at the least it will allow you to rid the bloatware you will never use. Unless you use or like the bloat and some of the useless apps put on all phones.
Apex launcher did it for me. Thanks!
I'm actually not concerned with any bloatware, which is only a few programs. Guess I'll be leaving this one alone then.

Anw, it's true though.... So far speed rom has been pretty good for me.
So far so good, except for the occasional force close when I text with multiple contacts
i thought about not rooting either but i was like eh whatever, and gave energy a try. battery life and phone speed is sooo much better. along with the removal of worthless bloat! been using for past 2 months or so and so far there's been absolutely no bugs or problems. so i suggest root!
I've been debating the same idea... I've rooted every android phone I've had..but as of now I dont see the point on this phone besides removing bloat until development picks up a bit..

So no ICS ROM is a working one? Interesting.
All the ICS ROMs are working. Some are works in progress but the ones based off of the latest release works fine. +1 for Speed Rom. Best ROM yet with most of the bloat removed. Something to hold me over until a true AOSP ROM comes out.

I broke last night and gave the Speed Rom a try. Very nice!! It doesn't hurt, but it's good to see all that bloatware removed. Rooting was a breeze but I'll hold off on the S-Off for as long as I can lol. Not too crazy about grounding the phone out just yet.
It's only been a day, but I've yet to run into any issues with the Speed Rom and battery life is great. One weird thing though is when I get a call and the phone is locked, I have to unlock the screen to see who it is. Is that normal?

This ROM is not a CleanROM. Its a stock rooted and all yours!
CSC Files are the files that tell your phone what kind of phone it is. For example; if you use the Verizon Patch files then this will convert the ROM to the Verizon version (sans the data icons) and allow you to access the Verizon Apps in the Play store. It will also set the APN automatically, etc...
This patch also has the correct RIL files and correct APK files, etc... To work with the Verizon Radio....
The patch in the OP can more than likely be applied to any 7105 ROM but I cannot assure you of that.
Please hit Thanks :good:​

I cant test it myself but I have done this so many times... It should be good.
Full wipe test only!
Running flawless so far.
Mms works btw
Very quick lock for gps on maps but says searching for location when I'm in navigation? ?
Is there any trick for this?

Make sure you get a lock 100% in Maps before starting Navigation. Use Wireless and make sure all location services are turned on.

I made the ROM via Remote desktop.
If you cant GPS locks thats not unusual fro some devices on VZW. I would try wiping internal storage and wait until GPS locks while on WiFi and its usually good from there.
It has to do with the differences between the International / AT&T Base and the Verizon base. PITA but once you get the lock you are good.

Nah, thats not a firmware update thats for the samsung software like the software store and the Music hub, etc. Its not the same as a carrier update. You can safely allow it to stop the nag and if you dont use any of those Sammy apps you can just disable it.

Hey Scott, just wanted to let you know that gps usually has probl3ms when trying to get a lock when inside. I have had this on Ace, and a few other international bases. If you go outside, it locks, and works good after that. I never have to wipe anything.

For CleanROM I need to do the typical APM Mod and maybe some transparent launchers with different grid sizes, that sort of thing.
So if you got time go ahead and post them up!

Well being a dev myself and someone who likes to build roms, I'm sure Scott feels the same way. I want to build the rom based on my version of the stock rom not someone else's.
So I'm sure that's why he went through the process.

AOKP Coming Soon

Doing some digging last night, it appears the AOKP team is building (and has private test builds) of official AOKP for our devices!
I am not apart of the team or know any of the guys, but just putting the puzzles together and getting excited. AOKP is my ultimate favorite rom!
Are you ready?

I think their rom uses cyanogenmod as the base so it'll probably be 4.3.1.

Incorrect. They've stated they're based on AOSP and sharing features as found useful in their roms

More choices is always a good thing, and more people working on a device is also a good thing as it tends to speed up solutions to problems. While I am not an AOKP user I definitely am glad to see them working on this device.
Wow this is great news! On my Gnex I been running AOKP exclusively. Can't wait!

Well as a previous Gnex user, the stock G2 rom feels really good. I recommend reading the tips and hidden secrets thread. It feels like LG took an AOKP build and used it as reference for the stock rom.
AOKP seems to be based off 4.3.1 now but is also starting to incorporate lots of the cool tricks the G2.

Coming from a long-time AOKP user on my GNex, using it honestly felt like a step backwards from rooted stock with Xposed and other tweaks. The fact that Netflix is not working on our AOSP 4.3 roms was the death blow for me. Not sure if that will be an issue with official AOKP or not but I honestly prefer LG's ROM with tweaks as of right now.
Can someone explain to me why people like AOKP so much? I have admittedly only used it once, but I didn't find it to be that great. It was slightly buggy and I didn't notice any great benefits.
I hope they use the power widget... I don't see any aosp Rom use this for our phones and I HATE the quick tiles

That's because you didn't look through it. AOKP gives you pretty much every known tweak there is on Android. It's what CM used to be. You can create some very beautiful setups using AOKP.
Though I do agree that I am enjoying the Stock Rom after flashing a few mods. I'm not using Xposed but still got my phone to a good stop where I'm very happy with it.

Well from what I experienced on the GNex they dont release a Rom unless everything works
Sent from my VS980 4G using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
yeah surprisingly the stock rom on this is not bad and you can modify it which made me wonder if they used a custom as a template?
I hate to admit this as well, but I'm going to be flashing back down to a LG based 4.2.2 ROM either tonight or tomorrow and really tear into it and see what madness I can do. Question. Does anybody have an app already compiled that fully decompiles apks (smali, xml, etc?) or know one? I don't have a PC at the moment. Otherwise I'll have to head to the computer lab where I graduated college from and build a simple app myself that let's me choose an app, decompile it into a directory, then the option to recompe once done (and resign if not system app). The signing part isn't even needed as Steven's SignapkTool should still work.
Just wondering. It's possible as Matt does it in his Privacy Blocker app. If it didn't force close when I tried to run it I'd try to just piggy back off of that after locating where he stored the temp decompiled files at. But thst wouldn't touch system apks.
I can't stay on CyanogenMod as phone calls are horrible. I'm lucky to make it 3 minutes before getting disconnected. I won't comment on AOKP as It's not out on VS980 yet. We need updated files from LG.. As in an official 4.3 and 4.4 release. I remember the same problems back on the OG DROID, but I'm excited to see what they bring. And yes, they do merge code from separate sources as I saw a weather mod I made for some friends that I released on another site show up in a later release. I wasn't credited, and somebody else created a thread on it on the other site taking credit. I didn't care as thise who know knew.. They removed it a few releases later.
Edit: And when I left the GNex, the were at 4.2.x and starting over from scratch for 4.3 so shouldat least be iinteresting.

Psa: DO NOT TAKE OTAs after updating to kitkat leak (nc2)

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:
If you've installed the new Kitkat leak for the Verizon Note 3 (and you really really should install it -- see below for reasons why):
MAKE SURE YOU NEVER TAKE ANY OTA.
Here is a brief (and yet startling) list of advantages to the leaked Kitkat build that could be done away with in ANY future OTA for the Note 3:
At anytime you can use ODIN to go back to 4.3 for root, disaster recovery etc.
This leaked Kitkat build allows for *ANY* compatible kernel module to be used. Unlike any previous Note 3 build ever. No whitelist security is in place to block kernel modules which are not "approved". (pointed out by @ryanbg)
It's Kitkat but SElinux permissive. Also very very rare.
There are so many unique things about this build, that every user who installs it should treat it like gold and avoid OTAs like the plague.
For more information on the leak:
http://sxtpdevelopers.com/samsung-galaxy-note-3-verizon/
How to maintain root and use the leaked files:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2726558
And a new Safestrap for use with the new KK build (you'll need a 4.3 compatible Safestrap for the root process and a 4.4 compatible Safestrap for use after upating):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2517610
If you ever get a chance make sure to send thanks over to sxtpdevelopers (I don't think he has an XDA username anymore).
This Was Definetly an Amazing Find!!
Thanks Hash!

What's the advantage of kernel modules?
Sent from my SM-N900V using xda app-developers app
So, help me understand this. Any kernel module? Does that mean... It works as a Dev version would? Any aosp / ge ROM would work eventually?
Same kind of process? Still not a true unlocked boatloader though?

this is a possibility, kernel modules being enabled makes it so kexec can work which then means aosp roms could work as well..
although alot of work has to be done to get kexec working on the note3. ALOT. but the hole for it is officially there
To make sure I understand, does this mean that when 4.4.3 is released, we can pull the info for the nxp nfc hce and make it work before Verizon/Samsung do?

...a little better. But don't get your hopes up. little better than slim or none isn't too good. Lets see what happens when the smarter people look deeper into this! Then I'll start thinking of doing happy-dances.
<Note3>
It seems taking OTA updates won't be much an issue: Software Update can't connect to the Verizon Software Update servers.

Hopefully any kernal used with the t mobile as you could do that with the dev editon.
Although I'm not sure, so wait for official words from the devs.
@Hashcode @BeansTown106 Something to keep an eye out for; the rollback protection counters have two numbers, a major version and a minor version. The minor version tends to get overlooked very quickly. Luckily with this build, our minor version was the same, in addition to our major version, so we could downgrade. We may get an OTA that has a SW_ID flag like this
Code:
SW_ID:0000000[B]2[/B]0000000[B]9[/B]
The 2 is the major version, while the 9 is the minor version. The minor version could be up one increment, even if the major version is the same, and we won't be able to downgrade. The minor version I've been told is stored on RPMB and major version is stored in eFuse(?) which is apparently differentiated from QFPROM. Still looking into that, but be weary even if any future updates look downgrade-able. Ensure both numbers are the same before any OTA/update if you want to downgrade.

Try Xposed Module "Samsung Data Connection Icon[1.0]". It solved that problem for me.
I tried to post as a hyperlink to the website but was unable to due to being a new member. If you Google "net.thinkindifferent.dataconnectioniconfix" it should be the first result.
