Hey guys. I am using the Padawan ROM and it does not come with S Memo and S Note. I want to learn how to install these apps on custom ROM's that do not include the S-Apps. I tried flashing someone's ZIP and changing the permissions using Root Explorer and it didn't work. I also tried adding the apk's to the system app folder manually and changing the permissions. This was also a no go. Has anyone been able to successfully do this on custom ROM's that do not have the S-apps? If so, can you guys shoot me a bit of help?
If you were unable to successfully install the apks manually, I would recommend that you could:
A) restore your backup of your stock ROM (I'm assuming that you would be clever enough to create a CWM or TWRP backup before flashing a custom ROM),
B) use Titanium Backup to backup the S-Apps (really you should backup all your apps just to be safe),
C) flash the custom ROM of your choice and restore your apps using Titanium Backup. However please note that you can only restore the S-Apps to Touchwiz based ROMs.
I hope this is helpful for you!

I've seen many developers write that the s-pen apps require TouchWiz framework ( i.e., s-pen will not work on any CM or other non-TW based ROMs).
Here's hoping someone find a work around.
Da g has successfully ported hovering point in a couple of his custom ROMs that are mixed of different bases loaded
I'm also very interested in seeing the touchwiz/pen based features (snote, smemo and related features) in JB. I'm running the paranoidandroid hybrid cm10 ROM (love it so far!) and these capabilities would really round it out for me.
S-apps are TW dependent, and require the Touchwiz framework to function....
We may see JB TW based roms in the future that contain these APK's, but until an official JB update is sent to the note 1...(if ever) we are forced to use a TW rom (UCLF6)....or a play store variant of the S-apps,....g
Papyrus
I installed Papyrus to get some of that capability back. I read about it somewhere here. It has just been ported to GNote in the last little while I believe. projectpapyrus dot com

The Padawan ROM is ICS based but the author pulled out those apps (along with many other apps). But he saved off all the extracted apps which can be found on a link he provided in the OP (the server has been down lately though).
So go to that link, download the 2 apps u want then reboot into recovery and install the zips. That's it.

There are many roms which provides these but I just want to have stock rom (Fed up of issues with custom rom) with AOSP google apps on it. I tried to copy & paste them into system/app dir but they 'Force Close' on using them.
Basically, I atleast need a messaging app to work on wanam stock XWLP3 rom.
Is there a way to do this?
have u tried flashing gapps with cwm? always worked for me but i never used wanam so make a backup first
Umm I don't think there's any diffrence between those but I suggest to check out cm9 dev thread if there is diffrences

I'll try to flash gapps and report you back.
I used to have S Memo on my stock rom I got on my Galaxy S III but I flashed Cyanogemod 9 on it. I lost all my stock apps and I'm OK with that, cuase I got a working apk for S Voice, but I could not get S MEMO.
I tried downloading apks and the /system files (I just put them in the folder and rebooted my phone) but no results. When I instal the apks it says "Application Not Installed" . Can anyone please help me.
If you want to get the apps from a stock ROM, you have to deodex it first, because all stock ROMs are odexed.
That is a very simplistic statement I am making above, because there might be other dependencies that are not in the APK, but in the ROMs itself.
Search XDA for tools and instructions on how to deoxed a rom on your computer so you can get only the APKs you want.
S memo will require Samsung frameworks so will only work on stock based roms

Hello Developers!
I work with Jrummy Apps Inc, the company and developer who brought you Rom Toolbox, Root Browser, Ultimate Backup, Busybox Installer, and many other root apps.
First, some background:
ROM Toolbox combines all the great root apps into one monster app with a beautiful and easy to use interface. ROM Toolbox has every tool you need to make your Android device fast and customized to your liking. ROM Toolbox has been featured on LifeHacker, XDA-Developers, Droid-Life, Android Central, RootzWiki, Android Police, DroidForums and other popular sites. ROM Toolbox has one of the highest ratings in the top 100 paid apps. Over 12,000 people gave it a full 5 star review! ★★★★★
ROM Toolbox combines apps like Titanium Backup, ROM Manager, Root Explorer, SetCPU, Ad Blocker, MetaMorph, Autorun Manager, Terminal Emulator, Script Manager, SD Booster, BuildProp Editor, Font Installer, Boot Animation Installer & many more apps into an all-in-one app!
The Revamped Rom Manager includes support for OTA updates!
Here’s where you come in:
We want your rom in our app. All roms will be *completely* free to download through our Rom Manager.
Why should you want to put your rom in our app?
Because your rom would be available to a much larger audience with more potential downloads and donations for you.
We want this to be as easy as possible for you.
To get the rom on ROM Toolbox, please do the following:
1) Fill out the file below with the roms/zips you want to have.
2) Save it in JSON format. I recommend using the free program called Notepad++ to modify and save json files.
3) Upload this file to your server. That way you can be in control of what ROMs show up at all times. Otherwise we can host it ourselves.
4) Send us the link to this file on your server.
5) Send us a summary of the ROM.
6) Send us the name of the ROM.
7) Send us the devices you support.
Code:
{
"version": "1", /*Keep this here, do not change or modify*/
"homepage": "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=...",/*link to website or original thread*/
"donate": "https://www.paypal.com/...", /*donation link*/
"roms": [
{
"name": "NoWizAOSPmod v.1.4.2 (7/22)",/*Name of Rom*/
"product": "NoWizAOSPmod",/*Name of series*/
"summary": "NoWizAOSP is a rom without wiz, and mimicking aosp...", /*Description of rom, and as updates begin, you will want to put changelogs here.*/
"device": "d2spr", /*device id*/
"url": "http://xeoduxus.com/downloadable/nowizaosp.zip" /*Direct download link, no goo.im please.*/
}
]
}
Note: you can add as many zips/roms as you want.. just add another section right under the "rom" entry. If you need any assistance filling this out feel free to ask and we can help you!
If you'd like to use addons, optional, flashable downloads with your rom, please let me know and I'd be happy to explain how to do it.
Ideally we would love for you to maintain your own download link. If this is not possible, please contact us and we'll do our best to help out.
ROM Toolbox is going through a major overhaul currently and has been completely rewritten. We want you to be a part of this!
Thanks!

(Mods, wasn't sure if this should go here or in development. Feel free to move it.)
Now is your chance, developers! Get in on this!
I recently uninstalled the paid version of ROM Toolbox as almost none of the functions worked in the Note 2.
Is the new version going to have all the functions available for the Note 2??
Yeah I cant even get Rom Toolbox to boot on this phone
If only there was a dedicated place here at XDA to find ROMs to download. Complete with support threads, change logs, and donation links to the Dev ....

Strange. I have the paid version also. Rom toolbox works fine on my Note 2. Everything I have used with rom toolbox works. I even installed the updated twrp 2.3.3.1from this app. They do need to get the latest 2.3.3.2 which has been out 5 days. As long as rom toolbox can stay updated I will always use it.
Have you tried changing the status bar icons??
I never used it for things like updating TWRP, once you have that installed its pretty simple to update anyway.

it does let you change some of the just not the 4g icon. ive changed the battery,vibration,wifi,usb with rom toolbox. the boot animations, fonts and some other things work as well. its as great app and i will always use it. everything work but a few icons. its even replaced titanium backup for me.
It must depend on what ROM you're running as none of the icons I tried worked with beans ROM (unless its been updated just recently)
Actually, all I tried to change where 4g and battery and it didn't work for either one so I gave up.
There where quite a few posts about this a few weeks ago, it wasn't working for anybody.
As far as Titanium BU, I never use that myself. i just BU quite a bit with CWM.

for the battery you will have to filter out everything but the 1% icons and that will give you all the icons you can use on beans rom. the 10 and 20% icons will not work cause beans is 1% increments

Cassie's XtraLiteRom for the Samsung Galaxy Mega LTE I9205
Based On Stock Slovenia MG7 Rom
History
I moved to the Galaxy Mega from the Samsung Galaxy Note and had produced one of the longest running roms for that phone, so now i pay my attention to the Galaxy Mega devices.
Its currently early days for this device and roms, as of 21st July we still have issues with CWM, Root, amongst other things so its back to the drawing board
Those who knew my later edition roms know that they came with Aroma Installer, alas this is another area thats not playing ball at the moment so ive gone back to the good ole days of producing a slim rom with removed app updates zips. Dont worry as development progresses the old style install will come back
Rom Details for V4 18th August 2013
Based on Stock MG7 Slovenia
Odexed
Pre Rooted with Super SU 1.51 latest Busybox
Memory management Tweaks
Removed Init.d Tweak
Removed Thunderbolted for smooth performance / battery life balance
Changed lockscreen light flare to blue orb, original images by kr3g3rs all creds to him
Stripped to the BONE, Apks, Libs,Media,tts,Others
Currently 570MB - original over 1.1gb
Install Instructions For V4
1) Make sure you are rooted and have CWM installed
2) Make sure you have a Backup incase things go pete tong
3) Copy Rom Zip to your phone
4) IN CWM - Factory reset, Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik
5) Select Install Rom in CWM Main Screen
6) Select The file you copied over and click Yes
7) The installer WILL throw an error at the end but dont worry its all fine
8) When you click reboot now it may give you another warning about loosing root and it will ask you if you want to fix it - CLICK YES
9) First boot will be a while
Known Issues
A) Not an issue so to speak but certain menu items will cause a crash if you have not installed the additional apps, i.e faceunlock, or help file etc not a bug just the benefits of slim rom, but you probably wont come across it, Video player has odd dependancies
Tips and Tricks
1) Give yourself Developer Mode - Click Build Properties in about device until it tells you success
2) Turn animations to .5x instead of x1
3) Folder Mount works perfectly if you have it backedup when you open just pin the apps (after you install them before you open them)
4) Turn wifi on off at set times, Goto settings > Wifi > Advanced> set time

One thing I pride myself on is my n7000 thread never turned into a flame war.
We were all new to this and needes help on the way.
I always flash my builds every which way I can as to reduce any risk.
All I ask is that you read and follow instructions before asking a question. However I will always answer where possible and I ask users of this rom to assist each other.
I appreciate english is not everyones first language an I ask you all to understand that when assisting people. People should always search first but we shall not flame anyone who does not
So please all play nice and enjoy yourselves

thering1975 In the local forum i participate in some people flashed I9205 based rom onto their I9200 devices, taking the modem file (NON-HLOS.bin) out of the firmaware, an this worked fine. As an option it's also possible to remove the kernel and recovery from the firmware and in this case you won't get the two red lines after flashing. I guess your rom can be flashed to the i9200 in this way also?

For the moment the modem is removed as ia the kernel.
No recovery is included as no cuatom kernel or cwm is done yet.
As for will it work on i9200 I cant say in theory I cant see why not as long as the partition table matches but alas im not going to recommend it so try at your risk.

Congratulations! This is officially the first custom ROM for the Galaxy Mega 6.3. I'm sure this will be the best ROM just like with my original Note. Hopefully the issues with CWM and root will be ironed out soon. I am not bothered with AROMA as long as I get the slimmest ROM possible with rock solid stability. All the extras can be put in a separate file for those who want them.
So with Foldermount, is this correct?
* Do a backup of the mounts in the app
* No need to put the data back into phone storage
* After installing custom ROM, install apps that use foldermount
* Before opening the apps, restore foldermount data
Is the default phone storage bigger in this ROM? Thanks for all the hard work

I backed folder mount both with tb and its internal backup
Google rerestored all apps
Open folder mount and pinned the apps
Started apps and they all worked without downloading again
An thanks its crude at the mo hence beta tag loads to add in and ill update it regularly. Got loads to so but its stable so far and pretty snappy.

A little extra storage in build one but original full rom is about a gig this is 680 or so but I got a way to go yet. Plenty of optimising nd strramlining. Plus nees to add in built in updater etc. The core setup without addons is heavily ut back probably save another 100mb from language files etc.

I see, I just need to back everything using Titanium backup and restore them like usual. I deleted most bloatware manually and currently I get almost 900MB RAM free. The only Samsung app I use is the Watch On to use the remote control function of the Mega. Keep up the excellent work :highfive:
Use tb sparingly it can be a pain I restore data only.
Foldrrmount has its own backup in its settings I think. The app data is on your sd card so once pinned all good

Hey Guys,
I was able to successfully root my Note 3 Neo (N750) with help of Philz recovery (many thanks). After doing usual nandroid backups, Xposed and stuff.
I wanted to change look and feel of my phone. Since there are not many custom roms and most of the cool themes are for CM, I tried my hand at HKThemeManager to apply CM themes on stock samsung rom.
Did anyone had any success?
I would like to port themes to be compatible with stock firmware. Devs/seniors please point me in right direction.

I dont think it is possible to use CM theme in Stock Samsung. If you are using S5 launcher then google you will get some theme for it.
Ok. Although HKThemeManager allows using CM themes on stock roms, but I am not able to utilise it due to some kind of permission error. Any way I like stock rom on note 3neo due to features and functionality (it's so feature rich).
Any idea how to change caller id interface? (Not uci app pls)
I use mihome launcher and download themes from the launcher itself.
