[DISCUSSION][I9300][Touchwiz][Android 4.4.4] -->back-to-n00t by arter97<--

Since Samsung stopped supporting the international galaxy S3 model (aka GT-I9300) claiming that the culprit is that it only has 1 GB RAM, so system apps cannot be run correctly, XDA Developers refused to settle down releasing the first milestone named ArchiPort, and here comes the other BIG EVENT.... :victory:
This is a discussion thread for the "back-to-n00t" project by @arter97, where latest Touchwiz Android 4.4.4 ported to the I9300 from the Korean version SHV-E210S, to keep the origional development thread clean and only development-related ...
before getting started, you must remember the what-so-called a disclaimer:
Your Warranty is now voided!
neither @arter97 nor me nor anybody is responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, exploded phones.
It's your choice to flash this ROM, not anybody else. If you don't know what you are doing, then i strongly advice you to do some research, or leave it until it is complete.
Also Mind that this is still Work-in-Progress
-->Features<--
**Stock Touchwiz Android 4.4.4**
**Heavily De-bloated**
**Deodexed, zipaligned, uncompressed**
**De-KNOXed**
What you need to know:
-->This ROM file contains kernel modified specifically for this ROM.
-->This ROM is heavily debloated, so it is very likely to find some system apps missing
-->This ROM does not supports any other custom kernels including arter97 kernel.
-->This is based on Korean firmware, some stuffs may remain in Korean(e.g. Dialer).
-->BusyBox or Superuser is not included!

Congrats!
I want to congratulate to @arter97 for his work, I'll being paying attention until stable ROM release to try it :fingers-crossedOnly one device to use, I can't permit me to lose connection :crying.
Question: I'm from chile... If I install this ROM, need to install local modem to avoid "no network" issue? (Obviously making backup of EFS before flashing).
Thanks!
Note: I can't see screenshots in official post "[I9300] [Touchwiz Android 4.4.4] back-to-n00t; Bring the LTE fun back to 3G". Please, upload more to another site!!!
Note 2: I think is the link in post that no allow me see the pictures.... No!! It's @arter97's website, error 404.

Concerning the modem question i also have the same question asked in the development thread.
Screenshots and downloads question: i think arter's site is down for a while may be...
I am also having the same issue here when trying to download
We have to wait for arter's website to get back so i can download it and post screenshots

Congratulations !!!
Hope the SMS error is fixed soon, that is a deal breaker for me sadly...
I will open a general thread for this project so we keep that thread only for development, of course if you wish

Yeah, that's my fear... I love custom ROMs, but my first experience was awful, I lost connection to network and sim was asking for PIN number... I had to send to repair my S3, only with 2 weeks of usage!!! (that occured 3 months ago) :crying:
Now, I'm using S5 Sensation ROM and I think is great, but I want to try others available developments
Greetings!

Yeah i noticed now
So you advice that thread should be closed?
But I think there will be so much fuss about it later, for example after it was discovered that SMS seems to be fixed with third-party apps.
And when the KK kernel source for the korean model is released, it will be more stable... So
May be @arter97 says something about this thread. If he wants that this thread must be closed then i have no problems... I just wanted to help
I am having connection problems here so i didn't see a lot of replies in the development thread. Thanks for letting me know..

I ask all of you to donate to the developers ..
They work every day to give us a free firmware kitkat stable ...
In a few hours have succeeded with hard work to give us a firmware almost totally stable ... finally soon we will have a stable firmware "semi-official"! :laugh::highfive::good:
Sorry for english!

Is this ROM Sudden Death fix patched??

As kernel indicates the battery capacity in milliamp Android system , eg have a battery of 3500mAh and 2100mAh system warns all application says that the kernel is providing this information , but the forums only talk about percentage . excuse the word as it is not my native language.

Xiaomi Redmi Note-Stock Android

I do not like MIUI for a number of reasons.
Their forum leaves a lot to be desired.
It is not GPL complaint.
I flashed HMNOTE1W_AOSP_DEV_0627.zip and it is working reasonably well.
Had to restore both IMEI numbers using MtkDroidTools v2.5.3
Have restored all files from my Nexus 5 with Titanium Backup.
Main problem is can't do anything about the kernel.
This is why development is limited as zelendel explain to me.
Too bad, as it is a nice phone for the money.
I didn't buy it. It was a gift from a friend in Malaysia, who knows
I like playing with phones.
Nexus 5 is my daily phone.
I just see the Redmi Note as a challenge.

nice bro.. can u share ur rom?

I downloaded it from the MIUI site.
See Here
HMNOTE1W_AOSP_DEV_0627.zip
You will lose your IMEI's.
Took me a while to get everything working.
Make sure you know how to unbrick your phone, just in case.

Trying new ASOP rom.
VANILA_XAN
SEE HERE
This is the same site listed in the All in One Thread.
The forum is in Spanish.
There are quite a few roms listed in addition to the ones posted.
I am only interested in ASOP roms.
You have to join to download roms.
Install straight forward using CWM.
As usual had to restore my IMEI numbers.
Been running for only about two hours, but seems fine.
Make sure you backup Titanium Folder to your PC if you plan to use it.

Here is another ASOP rom from the Spanish forum.
Direct Link
AOSP Z3
Very slow download for me for some reason.
Features:
Tweaked for better performance and stability
Removed built-in apps that are not often used
Pre-rooted
Zip-aligned
init.d Support
Any internal modification
Xposed Works Framework
Powered by Gravity Box
Lenovo Calendar
Lewa Calculator
Lenovo Music
File Manager Lenovo
Dual Sim Ringer
Xtended Rings
Haven't tried it, yet.

Thanks for sharing

No problem. Trying to find useful information to post here.
The MIUI forum does not seem to be that good from a development
standpoint. I am certainly not a developer, so the best I can do
is post useful information.
Unfortunately, other than the MIUI forum, most forums are not in English.
I am able to get information from the Spanish Forum, as I know a little Spanish.
Google translate takes over when I don't understand something.

AOSP Z3 by Xancin
Installed AOSP Z3 by Xancin.
Xancin has Written many ROM's at the Spanish forum
movilesdualsim.com
SEE HERE
Had to restore IMEI numbers, which is necessary on every install I have done.
Very easy using MtkDroidTools v2.5.3.
Other than that, install was straight forward.
ROM running smooth for past couple of days.

Went back and reflashed VANILA_XAN ROM.
All ROM's are a matter of personal preference and
VANILA_XAN seems to suit me the best.
The other ASOP ROM's worked fine and will suit others.
Now trying the Dual Sim's. I have T-Mobile(USA) as default
and vodafone(NZ) as the second sim.
Since I will be spending Christmas in New Zealand thought
it a good idea to test it.

nice thread!. i am really hoping there would be a stable kk rom

[Closed] Cyanogenmod 13.0 - OnePlus 2

Looking for the version cm-13.0-20161114-NIGHTLY-oneplus2.zip which is the latest Stable CM13 I have used before. I wanted to go back to it so now I am looking for links which I cannot find.

Thank's
Before installing custom rom, you must root on the device
To do this, follow these steps:

Tools for downloads in the description.
Once the device is in root, you can flash custom rom through TWRP.

Yes it is the first custom rom, still have to correct some bugs.
I have not had much time, but I hope that other programmers will continue my work.
The site on which rom is hosted lasts for 30 days after the link is unavailable. My internet is not very good, please I would like you to copy Rom to google Drive, so it will be totally available in the next few days!
Thank you!

What is the most stable Custom ROM (OS10)?

I start by apologizing for my lousy English and thanking you for your attention.
Our dear X00TD has countless Custom Rom's (fortunately) and I don't have time to test them all apart from this the only creator (on YouTube) of speaking in a language I don't know and has no review of all ROM's.
With this I come to you for help to indicate the best ROM on Android 10 in terms of stability, bug-free and battery backup, thank you for the answers.
(I ask ADM if possible not to close this post so it will always be updated)

Pixel experience's latest build is most stable build I have use Android 10 based

Hi. Can you give us the link on how can we install the pixel exp latest build?

First, unlock your Zenfone m1 pro bootloader (please backup your phone files first) and flash a custom recovery like TWRP and follow the instructions given by the devs in order to flash their custom roms properly :good:

I think you should explore the threads or post of devs of their custom roms for Android 10 and participate in the discussions of its testers and users so that you can try it for your self :good::good:
