Welcome to wilson3q's CM12 Unoffical Build!
As requested by some users, I started to build cm12 for I605. I don't own a I605, please help to test. If you like my work, you can donate here.
Disclaimer: I take no responsibility for bad things that happen as a result of flashing this.
My kernel source is standard cm12 kernel without any modifications.

Always nice to see a new thread for i605. This doesn't happen often. Thank you!

Thanks again for building this for us we all appreciate it!

will be testing this out and see how it spars. thanks for this! I was going to try and "port" it over from the t0lte with replacing some libs and such, lol.

Thank you! I'm downloading right now. Looking like a slow day at work, so why not?

Downloaded files. Backed everything up. Rebooted to recovery. Wiped / Factory Reset using TWRP. Installed both zips sequentially. Apprehensive when I rebooted. Took a couple of minutes of sweating watching the CM Logo swirl around, and then bam! I'm up and running Lollipop. I'll update soon...

So, I've got it up and running. It's fast and smooth, but there's a couple of glaring issues stopping me from testing any farther. The first screen that comes up after you initially select your language, is a new (to me) "Activating Cellular Service" screen. It has a message on the screen saying this "can take up to 5 minutes". I let it go for longer than that, but I got an error that it was unable to activate and I was able to try again, or skip it. I'll skip it for now just to see how the rest of the ROM works. Next screen is Wifi login, works fine., but you still have to hit "skip" even after you sign in to wifi.
Then it checks connections, for updates, etc and I keep getting the error that google play services has stopped. I haven't even logged into it yet...
Next screen is Tap N Go. Option to transfer all of your stuff off your old phone using NFC. Great idea, but I'm not testing because my new phone IS my old phone.
Then, it's google login time. Worked fine, standard stuff we're used to with options to download/backup your apps using google. It takes a minute here, and I kept getting popups about all of the google apps stopping, each individually. Annoying a bit... I hit the "RESTORE" option, this is my second try, and the first time I didn't have Root, so I couldn't download Titanium to restore everything. I also skipped the google restore last time, so I tried it this time. This is a new screen for me, but it takes me to a "Restoring" screen for a bit. It's not as annoying as on previous Android versions, having to individually approve each app that was updating/downloading. I keep getting the popups about one Google app or another stopping.
I get past the restore page, and the phone locks up. Reboot... After reboot, I have to go into the play store to download Titanium. It seems quite a few apps were restored by Google, but not all. I looked at the "My Apps" section of the play store, and there's a ton of apps cued up to download. It's what I was trying to avoid... So I hit "Stop" at the top, and it stops them all.
**I mentioned earlier that this is my 2nd try, the first try was about the same, but I didn't have root access. I downloaded SuperSU, but it wouldn't update the binaries, so it was useless. I tried SuperUser, it didn't work either. So, I rebooted to recovery, wiped, flashed the ROM, GApps, and the SuperSU zip I had saved on my SD card from my previous Omni Rom. Then I rebooted and now you can read what happened.
At this point, I'm having problems downloading Titanium Backup, SuperSU, or anything I really want. The Play Store is hanging and force closing. I can't even open the SuperSU I flashed from TWRP. There must be compatibility issues. I read somewhere that Lollipop has issues with root somehow, but I'm not sure. On my first try, I was able to download Titanium Backup no problem, but it wouldn't work because I didn't have root access. SuperSU and SuperUser didn't help after downloading. CM has always been pre-rooted on all of the other devices I've installed it on.
For now, I'm just going to restore my backup of Omni Rom and be content with 4.4.4 for now.
I'll try again if anyone can help with actually being on the VZW Network and Root. I didn't get a chance to play with the other stuff in Lollipop yet, but I would love to.

New build online...

Giving this a try!! Downloading now
Update- Downloaded and installed without any problems. I did have to skip the network verification set-up as it never went anywhere and wifi set-up worked as with setting up my g-mail account,.
Everything seems good except for no service, baseband version still unknown and no service or apn's for data.
going back to Liquid till this gets updated.

---------- Post added at 05:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:10 AM ----------
ok so I got this flashed again strange this time after booting it said no sim card inserted and to insert my sim, it was not out and i skipped and moved to wifi , setup worked all the way and I got a log cat, hope I did it correct as this is new to me. I have to re-flash to Liquid for now so that I have a working phone as I go to work in an hour,
Again let me know if you need any more details

Same on this build baseband unknown so no data

Yes, I flashed the gapps from your post. gapps-lp-20141109 is what the file name was. I use TWRP, not sure if it's the latest but it works fine. I always do the "factory reset" wipe option in twrp, because I believe that's a full wipe with one swipe... Now, just to test it out and see if I was doing something wrong, I tried the Liquid Smooth build (latest nightly) from 1/7, and it loaded and booted just fine. Had to flash the ROM, Gapps, GPS Fix, and Super SU (so I can restore my apps in Titanium). It connected to data, and ran me through the setup in a flash. It's working well enough to be a daily driver. Do you have any other suggestions? I'm willing to help if you want me to try something else.

Going to give this a try. Thank you for giving this phone options. It is greatly appreciated.

I love to flash and then go through a process of testing. I actually got 2 gt-n5110s so I could test a couple builds at same time, kind of a back to back comparison.
I would love to pick up another i650 that still has unlocked bootloader for testing that way on this device as well.
Well back to this rom, I couldn't get past the getting data screen and had to abort. I did a clean flash and wiped everything with both philz and TWRP 2.8.3.0. I tried both stock and shift kernels.
Lets face it, I'm a flashaholic. lol.....

[Q] System UIDs Inconsistent... Please Help

I get this message when I boot up.
I cannot access settings so I cannot perform a factory reset.
Is there any way to factory reset when you cannot access "Settings" because of constant force closes.
I am running stock but with lots of side-loaded apps.
I can access the file explorer. That is the only thing I can open that will remain open even though I get constant force close popups like "android.process.acore has stopped... android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly...
Is my gtab toast? Can it be saved or should I return it?
I get this all the time, with all the mods I do. Don't worry, your system is fixable.
For me, I use clockworkmod recovery .08. There's a "fix permissions" option and this always fixes the problem for me. It also allows a data wipe within recovery.
If you are 100% stock, you could try one of the stock ROM's here as well - that might get you working. You have a few options, here. Check out the FAQ in my signature. I'm actually posting up the new stock update that I pulled from TnT, today.
EDIT: Direct link the the stock ROM updates -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842000. You'd need to understand how to actually run these, which I mention in the FAQ section.
thx Roebeet, I was able to update to the new stock rom.
But I still have the same problem. Is there any other way to wipe my data. Can it be done while connected by usb or do i have to root it?
Is there any hardware button method to do a factory reset?
I still cannot open settings... it gets canceled by the force closes.
I am ready to give upon my G-Tab which I was enjoying so much.
Does anyone know how to wipe the date if you cannot open settings???
Try clockworkmod - it really is a great tool. You can find it in the Tnt Lite dev section as I have a link for .08.
For UID issues, "fix permissions" will correct it. And you can wipe data via clockworkmod as well. You can even remove it by flashing back to stock -- the latest stock firmware works as I've done it myself, the other day.
Btw, there are so many threads here that I sometimes miss replying. I dont ignore, I just might miss a post. Always feel free to PM me if you have a question.
I had a similar issue where something got corrupted in my user data and I was completely unable to start the settings or open the keyboard. I had to flash back to the full vanilla ROM because it contained clockworkmod, which was the only option available to accomplish a factory reset. That wasn't a fun day.
Think I figured out a key reason for sudden UID issues
People including me are getting UID errors even after having a stable rom and several reboots with no issues. Based on guinea piggin' my G, I can confirm the issues happen on apparently stable installs anytime you update a Google app.
Case in point, I updated Google Voice and Gmail and soon after I rebooted the G- UID city. I have started with a clean rom and installed many different apps to test. The only apps that hose the device at reboot are the GAPPS and it is not just if you update with the package. Simply updating from market will work fine, until you reboot and then it is a few minutes for trying to shut the device down and then perhaps two reboot attempts using fixed permissions.
TnT 2.20 (at least) does NOT like GAPP updates. How could VS bork this up so bad that fundamental apps for Android bork the device?
Again, the Tap UI team and who hired them and approved it on the Gtablet should be fired, rehired for a minute and then fired for good. Word.
This sounds kind of "preachy," but don't give up.
There is a learning curve to the G-Tablet, and it takes a good bit of reading on this site and assimilating the info.
I will testify that I had a hugely bad malfunction and and even worse fix on my tablet.
Using suggestions from helpful folk -- and carefully researching what I needed to do -- I was able to get my tablet back working just fine. To be sure, it's not stock any more!!! But I actually believe that with all I learned about flashing, mods, etc., I now could go back and make it stock again if I wanted to.
Don't give up. Just keep reading and researching the learning.

Not true for me, I installed the new Gmail from the Market with no problems. I am on TNTLite 2.2.1.
Google Voice has always been a hack for a tablet, since it is not actually phone. You might want to pull it out and see if your issues are solved.
I am back up and running thanks to clockwordmod. Thanks again!

Good to hear and thanks for the update!
I am currently having this problem. I am hoping to sell my 10" Android 2.2 Tablet PC on Craigslist... I need to fix this Error... I've only used it 10 times to play Angry Birds. The forum with the links I am confused as to what one to use... I am younger I must say. I am not a 21 year old "computer whiz"/.NET/OS maker... I do make websites. Besides that... I do not know how to "Wipe my system partition" as my Error message says to. Especially due to the fact I cannot open Settings. PLEASE HELP. I may have repeated things said above in his problems but I would like a "NOOB" walk through... (Because I am one). Please help. Thanks in advance. -Sophomoric
Hey, I had a same after my phone battery was empty and it turned off. I kept it off and recharged it, then I had the feeling "I'm feeling Lucky" -.-' so nice from google. xD
Had to wipe everything then full reinstall... such a pain.
Probably the cleanest solution HERE

Getting "com.android.phone has stopped working error" cm11 official vs985

I have just recently tried to install the official cm11 images for my g3. They worked fine. Then, when I installed gel x-posed settings and activated it, I would get said error. It would pop up again and again. This would lead me to reflash my ROM. Then, I do not know what happened, when I would flash a ROM, I would get the error from the start. I eventually fixed this error. But then, when I tried to upgrade the nightly, I got the error again. So I flashed the ROM again, and let it sit. After a little while of perfection, the error came back up!
Here's what I have tried:
-reflashing the boot.IMG (unzipped)
-clearing cache (recovery)
-clearing Sim tool cache/data (said they were non existent when trying)
-reflashing stock, then reflashing cm11
I really want cm11 on my g3, but with these issues, I don't know whether I can now.
Any help would be appreciated!

CM Nightlies are working perfect for me with no errors. Here is the process I went through:
I am still using TWRP 2.8.0 which is the version I installed when I originally Bumped! my phone.
I downloaded CM and Gapps to root of my internal SD storage
I chose to Wipe in TWRP
I chose Advance Wipe
I picked every option except for Internal Storage and External SD Card/Storage
I then Wiped
Out of habit, I do this 3 times (don't ask why, I just do it from when I had older android devices)
I then go back to wipe main screen and slide to do the standard wipe, 3 times
Yes, this is probably overkill!
I then go to install in TWRP
I install CM, then I install gapps (using the gapps that are on this list: https://itvends.com/gapps/
Yes, the date of those gapps are a little older, but that is what worked for me per OP'S instructions
I went through setup of my phone, fixing APN, Setting WIFI to USA, signing into Google after first loading into Rom instead of signing into Google on first bootup. Did a reboot
Installed Xposed, and the modules needed, reboot
I never received any error
I have done 3 nightly updates so far, as of 11/30. I am sure 12/1 will be ready in an hour or so.
I always click on about phone, download said update and let the process do its thing automatically, walk away and the phone is ready to use
Still no errors whatsoever. In fact, this has been the first version of AOSP I have used for the G3 with 0 errors. It is perfect, for me - No issues.
Hope that helps.

I did everything exactly as you did, including the 3 wipes, also out of habit. I too however, get the same error with the latest nightly. It starts popping up as I try to add my Gmail account at the initial setup. Previously, the 'unofficial' builds did not do this to me. This is the only rom that does this, I have tried them all out. I have yet to try to flash a different gapps package to see if that makes a difference. Apparently I dont get the data issues with cm12, but get phone issues with cm11.
I'm a bit relieved to see I'm not the only one having this problem. Been updating every night to see if maybe it's fixed, but I still get the same error. Didn't happen on the first nightly I flashed, though. It lol seems to be happening at random for me. Sometimes I'll set my phone down for a couple hours, working perfectly fine. Then I pick it up to check something and I suddenly start getting that error. I've tried every "solution" I find and none of them work for me. Even thought it was an issue with reading my sim card because when I get the error, it shows that my sim card isn't being read. But I still get it when I take it out. A normal factory reset doesn't fix it either. I have to do a complete data format to remove the error.
I found a quick little fix where i make a backup earlier in the day and just restore it whenever I start getting the error, but it's still very annoying.
Same issue
Hey bros,
Same thing here. It's a baseband radio issue. Notice in settings under About Phone it says 'Baseband Version: Unknown'. Either TWRP is flashing over our baseband (not likely, calls and texts can be made before the error message attacks come), or CM11 has some issue on certain builds with reading our SIM cards. I think having an official 10B or 11C flashable baseband radio to install at the time of the ROM install will fix this problem. Waiting on CM to patch the code will take too long. Let me know if you find one of these basebands or can find out how to extract it (from file manager or somewhere?) as I have not been able to find this info on XDA or anywhere.
EDIT: I FIXED IT
I'm a new member, and XDA won't allow me to post links..... look in the OP for JasmineROM (all credit to author for posting this 11C modem and fabulous stock LG debloated ROM) under downloads, you'll find the 11C modem. Download it.
1. Place 11C modem.zip on external or internal, whichever you want. I prefer external.
In TWRP:
2. Backup, unless youre livin' life on the edge.
3. Wipe it all except for external (or internal, if you prefer to flash from your internal storage)
4. Add to Install zip que in order:
a) latest CM11 nightly
b) 11C modem found in JasmineROM OP of main thread
c) GAPPs of your choice (I like nano PA GAPPs, and just install whatever else i want after)
5. FLASH
6. profit
7. PHAP
I have heard the 10B radio works great too. holler back and post results between the 2 stock radios for VS985.
Please hit thanks, as I am new and want to be helpful, where possible. Please share this so others know that we can overcome this nonsense.
CM11!!! Phappin' so hard right now!
Got it again.... totally blowed right now. maybe reconfig APN to match VZW and it will work?
Thanks for all the responses, it currently seems that the problem is cm11. I will probably wait for a stable build. For now, I'm using an unofficial cm12 ROM. Thanks for all the help!

Are you using that PA GAPPs package that's in alpha? I think i'm going to give up and go to 12 too... I do know that the first official nightly of CM11 doesn't give me any errors, but Trebuchet is so buggy it won't take widgets. Had to download Nova
It makes me cry. My phone lasted through the night. Woke up at around 7 and it was fine. Went back to sleep and woke up at around 8:30 and I was crushed to see the problem happening again. There doesn't seem to actually be anything thy triggers it. :/
Yeah I think I'm gonna just try out cm12 and see how that goes.
Double check to make sure the phone isn't running in art. That fixed my problems! Xposed and art do not work together!![emoji2]
Im getting the same error on my phone usually a few says after using any of the nightlies. When i go to make a phone call it gives me the force close and doesnt stop. Ive since moved back to stock hoping someone had more info on the issue. My phone was not using Art but I did have xposed installed.

[ROM][Unofficial CM12][5.0.2]CM12 Preview Builds for Deb - 1/06

For those who want to get in on CM12 pronto, here is a straight-from-CM-source build. The usual disclaimers: I'm not responsible for anything going wrong, including but not limited to bricking your tablet, requiring reflashes, or the NSA spying on you.
I will update this post with new builds as I create them every day or two, depending on what changes are merged: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/q/status:merged+branch:cm-12.0,n,z
If something doesn't work, I doubt I can help you, I'm not developer. I just ran the build and installed it on my Nexus 7 to see if it works (it does!). No cherry picks, just merged CM ROM/Kernel. However, if something doesn't work, post it.
What works: Everything stock plus a few CM features.
What's broken: Some people report data connection problems
What's here (1/03+):
Battery % indicator in notification bar, choosable icon
A bunch of behind the scenes stuff

I tried the 12/17 build but got bootloop city even though I had already been running a Lollipop ROM. I was grilling some buffalo wings (woohoo!) at the time so I had waited well over 20 minutes. I'm trying again so I can try to grab a logcat if it doesn't boot this time.
Edit: Oh snap! This time it booted! Thanks for your hard work to everyone involved ��
The LTE radio seems a bit wonky, being disabled until I toggle airplane mode on and off again (after which it seems to work fine). Also, it gives some 5-digit number for my carrier as opposed to saying "Verizon Wireless." I tried to grab a logcat but it didn't contain anything useful. Sorry ?
bootloop

Flash again. Someone else had the same problem. Let me know if it persists.

Carriers have unique ID codes. Apparently matching up those codes to their respective carriers hasn't been done yet.
Thanks for the heads up on the radio.
Wipe cache and dalvik is needed for first install, then no problem with boot.
Works good, thanks
Working fine. Thanks for supporting DEB
Working VERY fine. No radio issues for me, German APNs seem to be in order, as well.
deb build
Full wipe works best from km 4.04. Great so far with everything working to plan. Not used cm since my Xoom days.
First of all, THANK YOU for supporting deb! :fingers-crossed:
I tried to dirty flash over an existing AOSP install first (I know, bad Ambious) and obviously it didn't boot very well (it actually started deodexing, then stuck at 'Starting apps').
So then I went back to recovery, full-wiped, flashed clean.... and nothing. Endless boot (people throw the term 'bootloop' around where it's actually just a boot hang).
Tried clearing cache, dalvik, fix permission even - to no avail.
I also can't logcat because the CM default requires manual authorization... :/
(I have everything backed up so it's no biggy, I just really wanted to try it).
Any tips?

flash your previous ROM again, flash CM12 over it, and if it gets stuck on "starting apps" again just do a normal reboot. It's really weird how a simple reboot after one of these lockups works better than starting over from scratch. I've only rarely ever seen this be the case, and I've been flashing custom ROMs since the Eclair days.
Bum, now stuck in boot whatever, I'll try a reflash later.

It actually worked
Thanks!
Can some people test GPS for me? Thanks!
Worked fine for me last night even indoors.Not got round to a reflash today though so on kk at the moment, not sure why it wouldn't boot up this morning even with a soft reboot.
Clean flashed 19 build and gapps, all working as it should,no issues with 3g,GPS or videos so far.????
GPS works great for me ?
Mmmm battery stats saying 4hours left o 82%, better watch that.
As soon as you turn it off and back on it goes into bootloop or sticks on upgrading app.

Help with Xposed for Android 5.1

I asked a few questions in the official thread and did not resolve my issue. From replies to others in the thread I should probably try asking in the 'Discussion' thread(?) but I thought I would ask other HAM2 users here first.
Short version:
On my Ascend Mate 2 and I cannot boot after using romracer's version of xposed for sdk22 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/super-alpha-posted-permission-xposed-t3072979). I flash the latest version, wipe the cache, and press "reboot". It shows the boot logo, then the boot animation, then stays on the slightly animated Huawei logo indefinitely. I left it for an hour once just to see if it would change/finish.
Longer version:
(Started by making everything factory reset/stock.)
1. Got the B321 update
2. Got TWRP 2.8.7
3. Rooted with the latest SuperSU
4. Installed Viper4Android FX
5. Restored all my apps and settings with the stock backup tool
6. Flashed xposed-v71-sdk22-arm-by-romracer-20150816.zip
7. Would no longer boot. (First logo screen stays on for much longer than normal, then the Huawei animation plays, but without sound, and finally the animated Huawei logo just sits there.)
Nothing else was changed or added or modded before trying to flask xposed.
• The APK is not yet installed (not sure if that matters)
• I’ve tried the current version, as well as 70, 69, 68, and 67 for good measure
• I attempted to flash the 64 and 86 versions just in case
• I even tried a version for sdk22 posted by C3C076. This version did not even get to the animation screen and could not be removed with romracer's uninstaller (just thought I would try)
• I’ve tried waiting 10, 20 and even 60+ minutes for the boot to complete… it just sits there
• I’ve checked and rechecked and redownloaded the zip from the official (“unofficial”) first page
• I wipe the dalvik cache each and every time I flash
• After a few minutes, if connected to my computer, the initial Huawei folder window will appear (the one with Docs, drivers, and “autorun”), and my phone will show up in adb devices list in command prompt. I can even use adb commands at this point. I really believe this means something.
• To get back into my phone, each time, I have to restore the system backup or flash the uninstaller zip.
I really want a number of xposed modules! My phone works 'fine' without them, but who roots their phone for merely 'fine'. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Haven't heard of xposed working on stock lollipop EMUI . It does work on CM tho .

He is correct. You have to be on CM. EMUI will NOT allow closed to work. Flash the uninstaller zip.

Thanks. I was worried that might be the case, a few days into my efforts, when I saw the "Xposed for CyanogenMod" guide posted a few days ago.
If that is the case, I suppose I have two additional questions:
1. Will installing CM mean another wipe and restore? (I'm certain I know the answer, which is of course "yes", but I thought I would ask all the same.)
I only ask because I hate having to re-do all my settings (3 email accounts in the google app, general device settings, etc), which neither the stock restore app or non-pro Titanium backup ever seems to put back.
Read through the "preview-cyanogenmod-mate-2 thread". Guess I'd have to bite the bullet.
2. Is CM worth it on its own? (And by worth it, I mean worth it for the HAM2... I can see CM's features with a quick search.)
I know I'll like being able to finally get Xposed, but I wonder if this will be an issue for getting updates like the recent B322. Or perhaps CM fixes that concern? I don't know much about it. My experience is limited to learning to root my phone for slightly more functionality on a few root apps.
Read through the "preview-cyanogenmod-mate-2 thread". Still not sure after reading about random restarts and battery issues (possibly from wake locks and/or google apps?).
Guess I'll just have to decide whether to try it after reading more comments in other threads about it.
Thanks for the help both of you!

For someone like you that doesn't have a lot of experience with custom Roms I would say wait till things are better.

Thanks! As excited as I am to have Xposed, I really like my EMUI (and don't want to pay for the play store one you suggested to others), I like B321s stability, and I like not changing settings often. So for now I'll wait and deal with not having trivialities like AdAway or playing Youtube in the background.
@neocortex08
You only need root on your phone to be able to install adaway. You don't need xposed.
For background playback of YouTube videos you may want to check this out

They have a install method for those who are rooted and have xposed and those who don't .

[ROM|ROOT|Stockish|NO KNOX|No ItsOn] 9/5/15 TouchWiz Lollipop 5.1.1 (N915PVPU4COG1)

Here's a Stockish ROM for your N915P. This ROM has Knox, Sprint ItsOn, and secure storage removed. Nothing else was done to this ROM. I'm new to the Note Edge so I may upload patches to remove any other traces of Knox or ItsOn or optimizations I happen to find while making my own ROM.
Prereq: OG1 Baseband. Download it below.

Patches and fixes:
None yet.
[size=+3]DeOdex note:[/size]
The first boot time for this DeOdex ROM is very long. Approximately 5-8 minutes. Your phone will get hot as the splash screen remains on the yellow Sprint boot animation. I recommend keeping your phone in a cool environment while this is happening. The heat, if not properly checked, can make boot times even longer as the system throttles speed in order to deal with the heat. This doesn't happen on the Odex version.
[size=+3]Install instructions:[/size]
-Are you currently on the OC8 bootloader and would like to stay on it?
--Simply flash the baseband with Odin, and the ROM.
-Are you on the update from OTA or flashed the OG1 TAR?
--Flash kernel only.
-Are you one of the unlucky ones to take the OTA and hose your system trying to root and are now on another ROM?
--Flash ROM only.
-Are you on any build after OC8 but not the current OG1?
--Flash the baseband and ROM. Bootloader is optional and not available in this thread as of yet.
Wiping is only necessary if you are coming from a different base, such as AOSP/CM. If you are coming from a touchwiz ROM, wiping isn't needed, but won't hurt.
Changelog:
9/5/15: Initial Release.
Kernel source code: Download
Thanks, will flash tomorrow.
Thank you so much freeza!! Patiently waiting for the deodexed version and for the baseband.
Added modified stock kernel v1.1 and baseband.
Freeza if I'm on 5.0.1 still just flashing the baseband may give me better service ? Technically...
Downloading now still waiting on the deodex will play with the stock to see how it is thanks
Ok, flashed rom, kernel, and modem. Took a while to boot but all is running well at the moment. Thanks for supporting our device!!
DeOdex uploading....
What What!!! By far the best developer on a Samsung!! Thank you so much for your hard work brother!! Real Talk, i still have your rom on my Note 3! It runs flawlessly!! XD
Get your DeOdex on, guys! ;D
Thanks so much for this!!! I love the separate edge screen and have no reason to "upgrade" to the Note 5
Thank you freeza NICE WORK WITH THE KERNEL
When I saw you had been requested to come help this phone achieve root I knew great things were going to come to those who waited. I've had other devices where you were there to help gain root and again you came through. I purposely didn't take the OG1 update because I knew in time this device wasn't going to be ignored. IMO it is the best NOTE device out there and it will be mine until they make a NOTE EDGE 2 (With SD card and removable battery). Thank you for the quick response and the hard work you do to make this happen.
Cant get either one of them to boot. Both the odex and the deodex wont boot, they both flash fine and then after the phone reboots it stays on the yellow sprint screen Maybe for up to a minute then reboots and it cycles that way. Never boots. I've tried not wiping/Factory restarting as well as wiping/Factory resetting. Have also tried formatting through TWRP to no avail. Have also tried flashing the kernel and wiping caches after flashing but Nothing is working. Have also flashed the baseband.
Im currently on OF6 if that should matter.
Edit: md5 Sums have also match up. Have downloaded both from my phone and a pc to no avail.
Edit 2: tried both TWRP 2.8.6.0 and 2.8.7.0. Also tried clockworkmod recovery and that didn't work either.
I had success but it took some time. I downloaded the deodexed debloated rom, the kernel, and the baseband. I had a method to how I wanted to do this and here is how i got there.
I was running OC8 rom rooted.
1. I odened the baseband tar file and rebooted. But unfortunately it bootlooped on the initial splash screen (note edge) so
2. I ran TWRP recovery and installed the kernel file. Rebooted phone and it ran fine. I looked at the settings about phone and saw that the baseband and the rom all said OG1 but i had not installed the rom yet. So i figure it was a trick to get the baseband to install. So
3. I went back into recovery. Wiped dalvik cache and regular cache and installed the new rom. It installed fine and i waited the length of time for the initial boot up. But this time as it was "Android is starting" it rebooted and got stuck on the sprint splash screen and kept randomally vibrating. Having the ability to remove the battery
4. Rebooted back into recovery, wiped everything including internal storage, and reinstalled the deodexed rom. It installed fine and went to the initial startup screen where it tries to initialize and it rebooted one time, back to the initialize screen but continued without a hitch.
I currently am running OG1 5.1.1. With root.
At times during setting up the phone it would randomally vibrate for no reason...short bursts...but it hasn't yet again rebooted, restarted, or crashed. It is faster from what i see. Probably because there are almost no google apps installed. I've had to install chrome, youtube, and maps. But all seems fine. My signal and speeds are the same so the baseband didn't do much to change that. But so far so good.
---------- Post added at 11:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 AM ----------
I did try to install over my odexed OC8 with this new rom but because there is so much different about the files that are installed IMO formatting the phone was the only way to get this to work.
---------- Post added at 12:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:30 AM ----------
One final thing just in case it isn't known: when you wipe everything in TWRP, excluding external storage, you have to restart the recovery before trying to install a rom. It will say you have no OS installed, but you are restarting the recovery not booting a rom, so that's fine, but you do lose root status when wiping. So the next screen gives you the ability to gain root again, but you have to restart TWRP to do that. In the past i tried to figure out why installing after wiping didn't work, and 99% of the time it was because of that. I also don't like installing new roms over older roms (even if they are the same base (touchwiz to touchwiz)) because i feel I would spend more time troubleshooting why something isn't working instead of just starting over. I find less hassle doing it this way.
I odin baseband .tar file, than reboot it to recovery, and flash kernal and odex room at the same time, saw some red messages when kernel was flashing, than odex rom was next but it was successful when it was done. (I did not know if kernel falsh ok so i reflash kernel again) reboot to system and after the android system updated all its ok. No problems so far.
Oh and i inclided the supersu at the same time i flash kernel, odex rom and supersu.
1. Odin baseband tar file.
2. Flash kernel, odex rom and supersu.
3. Re-flash kernel.
4. Reboot to system and profit.
(Maybe i did un necessary steps, but its working. )
Was running great but have been experiencing Google account and store issues. Tried odex and deodex versions with similar results. Anyone else having issues?

Just starting to have random freezing. And not able to select my apps froms the edge screen, i can only scroll through it. Will remove all the app shorcuts and re-add tham again.
**update 1.
I removed all shorcuts from the edge screen and added them back, all work but some i have to select them a few times before they open.
Maybe i have to reflash, reset, clean and wipe.
**update 2.
Clean install of odex rom, and kernal 1.1.
No more lagg but the edge screen does not work properly. Not able to select and open some of the favorite app shorcuts.
**update 3.
Factory reset, cleaned and wype, odin sprint lollipop update (uf something), downloaded OG1 update. Installed all apps from scratch. And the edge screen does not work. I can scroll, side to side, up and down, but when i select an app it does not open it.
** update (last one)
Foud the code to test the phone hardware.
*#0*# on dial screen. Tested all and it came out good. But i notice that some how the edge screen its not as whide as it used to be ( like its more to the right of the phone) so where i use to touch to select an app its now more to the right emd of the edge, thats why i was able to scroll but not select the app.
Its all good now. Now second round of flashing.
Will give it another try at the room.
Thanks Freeza and sorry about the problems i had and hopefully did not cause anyone from not trying this great work pr yours.
I left all the problems i had so tje next person trying this room does not get discureged from trying. But allways fallow direction.
:thumbup:
** last update
After setting and resetting, flashing and un-flashing, rooting and un-rooting. I can finally wrote that all is good. Running latest lollipop 5.1.1 and freeza's new 1.1 kernel, I can reprt that all is smooth as butter.
Thanks for the hard work.
Thank you so much for your hard work Freeza! So glad I'm finally running 5.1.1 on this beast :]
The ROM is working pretty well, but I have noticed that every now and then, the phone will be rather laggy. Turning the screen off and on again seems to fix the issue, making me think that the processor is being throttled while the screen is off (good) but isn't being sped back up when the screen is turned on..sometimes.
It's not a huge deal, but I was wondering if anyone was experiencing the same thing.
No issues here.
Starting on OG1 had to flash bootloader, kernel, deodex rom and supersu to make it stick. Two days now and battery, signal and speed seem improved.
Thanks freeza!
