Hey does anyone wanna share their buildprop, my network is coming up chameleon.
I'd prefer one for Boost Mobile, but that's probably asking for too much, so sprint will do.

I am running the NORMA s6 port ROM on my Sprint note 3, it took a lot of searching and edits but I finally got my network to show up as Boost Mobile AND I have working 4g (working 3g and 1x too).
MMS, GPS, NFC all work as well.
I don’t have 10 posts yet so I can’t contribute on main thread, but when I get home later today I will post my build.prop for you if you’d like. It contains some edits at the bottom of it which were placed there from a “universal boost apn fix” I flashed from the “LG all things root” guide I frequented when I had the LG Volt.
After flashing this, and editing my apns.conf file to have the appropriate info for Boost apn, my lte started working and I haven’t had to mess with my phone ever since.

There are some more things that you will need to edit to enable all of the Boost mobile features for the rom. Specifically in CSC. If you need more info send me a PM and I can help you get your rom even sweeter!
I don't know if this is the right place to be posting this. So forgive me if this question is in the wrong place. I upgraded (with Odin v3.07) from 4.4.4 to NH7 (I believe) and then to OC5. Everything worked fine until I tried to install TWRP. It wouldn't work. It just refused to replace the stock recovery with TWRP. So I finally got Odin to reinstall the software (OC5) again after doing a factory reset and cache reset. After getting OC5 to work I booted to stock recovery. When I rebooted into the OS, I started getting before booting was complete, a message saying, "Unfortunately<An App> has stopped". Pulled the battery, replaced it and same thing. Has anyone seen this before, and if so what did you do to fix this?
Thank you,

I don't know if there is any missing info on your explanation. I did notice problems on the ota. I also noticed differences between ota and full odin tar. The first difference i noticed with the full odin tar is the android wiggled its antennas. The second thing I noticed was the initial setup looked different vs ota.
I was also getting system app stopped responding message. I was also too aggressive with titanium backup freezes. Things I used to get away with, were mucking up operation. Out of final despair, I decided to only freeze apps that showed up in the regular app menu, that I didn't use. So far, no force closes. A week or so has past and no issues so far. There area few apps that are showing up in play updates, that aren't in the normal app menu list, and I'm not updating them. The app isn't responding got so bad for me that i couldn't get fully booted to back up anything, and lost data that I wish I could have backed up. Oc5 is tempermental.
My latest snafu was freezing apps so much that settings didn't work. I unfroze everything and only froze apps that were in the app menu. Before I did that, wifi and wifi calling were forced on and a reboot wouldn't turn things off causing that state. That's why I said oc5 is very touchy when digging under the hood and stopping apps and services that you might think are bloat. I might disable ant, which is an app for monitoring fitness hardware, but I just leave it alone and don't update it.

FIRST odin CF auto-root. THEN odin the latest TWRP that supports your specific device model. SM-N900P. If Odin fails to flash TWRP by doing it in this order then contact the TWRP team and see if they can look into it.

Don't go freezing stuff willy nilly. There's no need for that and it will cause problems. There's too many dependecies and freezing the wrong app will effect other system apps/services. Battery life is great if you turn of services that you don't use.

Galaxy Note 3 on 5.0 lollipop
Can anyone tell me how to root the Note 3 on Lollipop? I used Odin to flash oc5, but I lost root. I flashed cf autoroot 4.4.4, but that didn't work. Then someone said load twrp.img in Odin but pda slot didn't give that option. I am new to Samsung so bear with my inexperiance. I usually add on my Nexus devices. Thanks in advance Guys

Both methods should have worked for you, but just have in mind that you can't use the same odin from cfauto root to flash other tar files than the cfautoroot one, and also you won't be able to flash an img file using odin it has to be a .tar or .md5.

Anyone else having an issue with this ROM and google maps randomly saying "Maps has stopped working" over and over and over whenever you try to go to navigation?
Model number changed to 900T
A bit of a newbie question...sorry in advance!
I installed v1.3.6 on my Samsung G900F, and so far, everything is great. When I installed the custom ROM, the model number changed to G900T. If I want to install v1.3.7, do I use the G900F version or the G900T version?
Thanks!
Help please I followed the instructions to the T I updated to the nh5 bootloader and modem via the instructions everything seems well but my download speeds are horrible I'm not getting more than 5 down in an excellent coverage area with full signal bars, I was on ne6, just got the phone Tuesday and now my data is so slow can anyone please help!!

Sorry flashed latest version, on nh5 baseband and modem
Morning all,
Just recently did a full system/cache/dalvik wipe and flashed 1.3.6a.. Then I used Odin to flash bootloader/modem. ROM has been working great, but have noticed that my data connections are turning off a few moments after the screen is off. I checked power saving mode, which wasn't even selected to be installed with the Aroma package. But Restrict Background Data.. setting is off. Turned it on, and back off, same result. I have Always On for my WiFi, but that terminates as well.
Bluetooth and my cell signal (no data) are the only things showing for connections after a few moments if screen off.
Any thoughts?

I've been receiving random reboots out of the ordinary, no FC, just a reboot. As of now i loaded the default settings from Ktweaker. I will observe it for a while. Any tips on how to avoid random reboots and what advice can you give to preserve my phone's lifespan?
thanks for the rom
This has been the only rom I've been using and I love it, Thanks for the work.
Will the G900T still be updated or should I just follow the INTL version?
solved my SM-G900T problems
I was seriously about to dump this phone until I found this ROM. I had been having multiple Bluetooth issues streaming music running stock TW. Recently tried CM12 nightlies with similar to worse results even with Ktoonsez kernel. Tried a few other Lollipop Roms that turned out to be unstable at best. Read a post on another forum about this ROM. Installed it two weeks ago and am happy to report that I no longer have Bluetooth stutters and connectivity problems. My phone performs as one would expect. Thank you!
5.0 for wifi calling
I do really like the wifi calling feature, so is there any possibility for u guys to update it?
Awesome rom! I was just wondering if there is a way to add viper audio on it?
I was wondering when using the call recording feature where the recordings are saved. When the recording is stopped it says "saved to my files" looking through my directory I can't seem to find a folder by that name.
Where can I find the boot loader and modem for BNH5?.
Rooted.. Custom Kernel and Rom.. How to factory Reset
Hey guys... just as subject says. I have an S5 SM-G900T. It is Rooted with custom rom, ZtreStoLite 1.3.6a and Ktoonsez Kernel. I wish to factory reset without messing it up. I have a buncha pop up notifications from games I used to play on the phone(facebook stuff) that for some reason didn't stop when I uninstalled the stuff. I wish to keep my phone the same just to get back to when I first loaded the custom rom.
Thanks in advance, and any other info needed feel free to ask.
Komiical
What would cause slow browser loading? Data is not slow, but any browser loads really slow. Thanks
delete Xposed Installer, greenify and adaway or any similar ad blocker.
reboot, have fun.
Hey guys, what happens if I do not do a Data/Factory reset first in recovery before I run my install (and select the second option - to keep my apps)? What are the downsides?
Thanks!
Download failed
I tried to flash a few times now and every time is the same. I download files with opera, chrome and gmail and it says download failed, the files don't appear anywhere but when I go to download again it asks for overwrite. Pictures I take don't appear in the file browser in the camera folder or the gallery until after the next flash (external sd).
It happened after the first time I flashed ktoonsez, after that I tried to fix it with the stock kernel but it didn't work (does the installer flash the stock or does it assume it is already installed and skips?).
P.S. It downloads apps through play store and internet works just fine (full speed).
Nevermind, flashed stock then reflashed xtrestolite and it works as it should now.
Question, if I have the stock lollipop baseband and modem already from the factory do I have to still upload my bootloader and modem? Or do I have to downgrade to kitkat bootloader and modem for this room to work?
I tried it with the lollipop baseband and modem and it just sits at a black screen after Samsung logo. I let it sit for over 70 min and nothing beaides the black screen. Tried multiple times to flash, re-download, and still nothing.
This also happened when I tried to deodex my stock rom too.

Thanks for the awesome!
Just wanted to say thanks for the awesome rom!
It was just what I was looking for. Loved how striped down it is and the fact I can still use ART.
<s>Only thing I wished is that I could figure out how to get the original voice-to-text to work... On stock 4&5 using swiftkey when I use voice-to-text it shows up in the keyboard tray and inputs the words directly than underlines things it didn't quite hear right and I can go back and fix things if needed. Using this Rom it pops up the normal google themed voice search that then makes you select from a list of a couple of options based on what you said.
Tried installing Svoice doesn't seem to be the missing link so I'm kind of at a loss. XD</s>
Never mind I'm complaint free now.
I was being silly and was using the swiftkey app I paid for from Amazon app store rather than the newer "now free" version from the Playstore...
Wipe
If I dont do a full wipe and install this rom what would happen?

Re flash the Rom, flash any 4.4.4 gapps, flash pollution patch.
1) boot in to recovery
2) wipe cache and dalvik cache.
3) install beanstalk
4) Flash gapps
5) flash pollution patch
hope this helps
I just installed this following the instructions, and I'm having some sort of problem with vibrations....there just aren't any type of vibrations at all? When I adjust volume down all the way, it just goes from volume to mute (usually it goes volume down->vibrate->mute all). No vibrations from apps that are supposed to vibrate. No vibrate on notifications. No vibration options anywhere. No haptic feedback.
Am I missing something?
Love the ROM. my OG Note is back to use, thanks to you.
I use my i717 in class as my management tool. Timer, classdojo, GVoice for parents, presentation remote, and even as note taker for my disabled students.
As I teach, I love being able to hand off my phablet to a student to do a small task. They love it too. I tried the Users section to make a teacher account and a student account. It has a lot of crashing and it resets my original account (factory wipe, I guess).
What should I do?
Thanks in advance.

cant use playstore on beanstalk 4.4.4 quincyatt i717
I have a samsung galaxy note i717 ATT I installed CyanogenMod, wiped everything 3 times, (of course made a backup of my original which i had to restore) i installed beanstalk 4.4.4 quincyatt for the i717, then i did gapps 4.4.4 (i cant remember which one) and i cant sync my gmail account. i then flashed another gapps and google play kept crashing so i flashed back to where it wouldnt sync. once i got off work I had to restore back to my original att setup which i hate and its slow :/ I love how the 4.4.4 ran. if anyone recommends a better rom for my note please let me know or how I can fix this. I am a complete newbie to this but im learning. Atleast I didnt brick my phone yet lol. I also used odin to install CM.

I hope I gave enough information and thank you guys in advance. Hopefully I can learn some more about this, it's pretty interesting. My next step is to learn to customize my boot loader. I also used a patch "Polluti0ns_rom_patch_v2.zip and I checked all the options not sure if I was supposed to lol but it fixed my screen flickering and I used to to change the bootloader to "Blue Flame" which looked like smoke on water. It was better than the ATT junk though lol and looked neat.

I'm not on this at the moment but I have used beanstalk previously and do not recall any major issues. I used gimmeitorilltell's TWRP recovery (the unofficial one) to flash. I generally use a minimal gapps for kitkat. If you don't need more, I say, don't install more. (Though loading a full gapps puts apps in system where they don't eat up sdcard space like they do when downloaded from the Play store).

Ok, I was stock rooted to allow for wifi hotspot. Once I started getting the latest OTA from VZW I decided to try to go back to stock to accept the OTA. I went through all the YouTube video's and loaded the LG software but my phone would never sync to the LG suite software. I ended up giving up and just kept pushing the OTA off. It got so bad that I decided last night to install a recovery and then flash an unofficial CWM rom. So this morning it was working fine and then all of the sudden, I lost VZW data. Couldn't get any signal. So I decided to try to flash the Official Cyanogenmod 11. That blew up during the setup and gave me an error that it could not find any cellular service. I wiped the phone and tried to restore the backup I made of my stock rom with the recovery on it. I made the backup the second the recovery was finished. It's giving me an MD5 error?? I've tried this multiple times with the same result. So, I then decide to flash one of the two roms (unofficial & official) back to see if I can get the phone working again. No such luck.... It keeps trying to set up my "cellular service" and just runs. Nothing ever finishes. I'm really worried at this point. I would be perfectly fine to flash a Verizon image and go back to stock. But I can't seem to find out how to do this or where to find the file. Please help me.. I'm getting desperate.
Edit: I tired to flash the Unofficial Rom again and this time it seems to be working. I would still rather just go back to stock though. If anyone can point me to the correct place I'd be very appreciative.
Thanks

Here is a link to flash back to stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-lg-g3/general/guide-flash-to-stock-10b-kdz-method-t2928140
I know you wanted to take the OTA, but why not download one of the stock based 11c ROM's, like Jasmine 3.0? That way you'll still get the latest version(11c) but you won't lose root and recovery. The OTA patches root, so no recovery either. Here's a link for Jasmine 3.0 stock based 11c if you want to try it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-lg-g3/development/rom-jasminerom-v1-0-t2904641
Also, there has been issues with data on the CM builds. It seems pretty common right now. Check the CM threads for more info on that. I believe there is a command people have been entering(killall rild in terminal emulator) to get data back, but it seems 50/50 that it'll work.

Hey thanks a lot for your reply. I understand what you're saying with going back to stock. My issues with flashing custom Roms is that I have to have my phone work 100%. I've been flashing since the original Droid Incredible. And I've NEVER found a Rom that didn't have minor glitches and issues. Usually those issues affect my daily routine. I'll give Jasmine3.0 a shot and if it works I might just keep it. If not i'll just suffer through VZW's BS! Anyway, really appreciate your input.

Glad to help. I'm with you on the 100% functionality too, so that is why I'm on Jasmine 3.0. Don't get me wrong, I love custom ROMs and all the work the devs do, but until all the kinks are worked out I'd rather be stock.
Also, I'm not trying to advertise anything, but flashing the skydragon kernel into Jasmine has helped the speed/lag and battery life as well. Its worth a try - but it only works on stock/non-AOSP based ROMs. If you try it though, also download the stock 11c kernel that the OP put in the thread just in case you have issues. I don't have the link handy, but the kernel is located in the "original android development" thread. Peace

Which drivers were you using? I had trouble with the Unified Drivers linked in some posts and had to use the Verizon specific drivers. I also had to usually reinstall the drivers each time I tried to use the flash tool to get it to recognize my phone.

To be honest, I'm not sure what drivers I was using. I did a Google search for LG suite and found the closest version I could find. They didn't have the VS985, Only P985. So that might have had something to do with it.

Glad to help. I'm with you on the 100% functionality too, so that is why I'm on Jasmine 3.0. Don't get me wrong, I love custom ROMs and all the work the devs do, but until all the kinks are worked out I'd rather be stock.
Also, I'm not trying to advertise anything, but flashing the skydragon kernel into Jasmine has helped the speed/lag and battery life as well. Its worth a try - but it only works on stock/non-AOSP based ROMs. If you try it though, also download the stock 11c kernel that the OP put in the thread just in case you have issues. I don't have the link handy, but the kernel is located in the "original android development" thread. Peace

Modem is the radio. Some people reported better signal strength on the 11c modem versus the 10b modem, but I didn't notice too much of a difference myself.
And glad you like the ROM, but all thanks go to hsbadr who came up with it

You know, it's really odd but the last few weeks my phone's signal has dropped. I listen to Sirius through my phone during the day at work. And I've always received 1 to 2 bars of 4g. But the last few weeks, It's dropped to about 2 to 3 bars of 3G. I thought maybe VZW was secretly throttling me. But maybe it's the updated Radio?

It's possible the modem could've been causing problems. Is 11c better or worse for you? And its also possible big red was throttling you too. That seems like something they'd do.
If you use/like xposed framework G3 tweaksbox is a good app to get for customizing your phone a little bit. And greenify and amplify are good xposed apps that help your battery life a whole lot. They are worth checking out in the play store.

Rooting fnk1
So this might be a silly question but after upgrading to 4.4.2 via samsung kies, I can't find a root method that will work for VRUFNK1.... I tried towelroot but it doesn't support my device. If I want to try this rom out how do I go about rooting my S4 VZW?
question for wtfchuck about empty vzw galaxy
after you did the Alternative Custom ROM Method: to update to NK1 and flash ss, super su etc, did you immediately flash the custom rom or did you let the system boot and reboot into safestrap and then flash empty galaxy?
thanks

Nevermind. I allowed the phone to reboot and i got a bunch of "Backup Assistant Has Stopped" errors. Apparently my data backup had something in there that was causing this error.
I went back to safestrap, wiped, flashed empty galaxy, flashed modules and booted into empty galaxy with no issues. apps are installing as we speak.

rotate_on_home
I couldn't get rotate_on_home.zip to work. I flashed it in safestrap.
Any tricks/tips/setup info for this?

** [ROM] Empty [VZW] Galaxy v3.92 [I545VRUFNK1] 1/2** system cannot be backed up
System cannot be backed up via Safestrap after installing empty galaxy v3.92. Safestrap always says "backup complete failed" (in red letters). Did full update to I545VRUFNK1 via directions on this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-verizon/general/how-to-root-i545vrufnk1-4-4-2-12-1-2014-t2959613. Tried both methods, odin only method and safestrap method. Both worked ok and I am able to back up system via safestrap from here. However as soon as I install empty galaxy v3.92, whether doing a factory reset (via normal recovery or safestrap) or advanced wipe via safestrap or no wipe at all I lose abiltiy to backup system. Tried both Safestrap-JFLTE-3.72-kk-B01 and Safestrap-I545-3.75-KitKat-A03.
I spent hours trying to solve this and got nowhere. I can back up system on stock I545VRUFNK1 no problem but as soon as I install empty galaxy v3.92 via any type of wipe or no wipe at all I can no longer backup system. I can confirm I am on baseband I545VRUFNK1, Android Version 4.4.2 and using I545_NK1_Modules. I have tried every option under the sun seems the problem lies with empty galaxy v3.92.
** [ROM] Empty [VZW] Galaxy v3.92 [I545VRUFNK1] 1/2** system cannot be backed up
Fixed??!!
Went for a ride into the city this afternoon, listened to some Bluetooth music, changed theme in supersu, set correct time zone in safestrap
No major changes made
Decided to give it another go after like 8 hours of trying to solve this yesterday. System (and data) backs up ok now.
From what I have read in the General section for this device, you need to do the temporary kernel downgrade method to root NK1 with towelroot. ..
Sent from my SCH-I545 using XDA Free mobile app
Yeah I did just that. Used I545VRUFNK1_I545VZWFNK1_I545VRUFNK1_HOME.tar via odin to upgrade to NK1 (came from CarHD 32.1S v2 NG6-NCx STOCK so unable to get OTA update). Once I update to NK1 use odin to flash I545_NC5_Stock_Kernel, run towelroot, then use odin to flash I545_NK1_Stock_Kernel. Then install supersu.
Honestly I don't know how I fixed it. My best guess is somehow having the wrong time zone in safestrap somehow caused a problem backing up system. All I know is now I can back up system ok (data too).
Thanks for the help anyway...still worth giving a thumbs up!
phone issue when connecting bluetooth during call
i have an issue that ive found. when i accept a call and then connect my bluetooth headset, com.android.phone crashes and i cant hear anything in my bluetooth headset. i can still talk on the phone and sometimes it switches to speaker. i cant hang up either even if i click phone again.
i managed to recreate it and recorded a logcat with catlog but i dont really know what everything is doing in there or if i caused it with an app conflict.
normally i have my bluetooth headset connected first and then make a call and thats fine. i just switched to this rom last friday or saturday and i dont think i connected the headset during a call since then.
thanks.
I am a bit confused over what is the purpose of the empty galaxy rom. Does it actually free up any space on the internal storage? My S4 seems to have about as much free space as running a full stock rom. What are the actual advantages of running the empty galaxy rom versus a full stock rom?
I love the work on this rom and enjoy running it. I am just curious as to why my S4 only has 6.5 gb free on the internal storage when I barely have any apps installed.

The current size of this rom is less than 1 gig. Current stock 4.4.2 is approx 2.6 gig so there is 1.5 gig saved... UNLESS...you are keeping stock rom in Stock slot and employing slot-1 for custom rom which means you have approx 3.5 gig in just rom. I run EVG in Stock slot leaving other slots empty and have 101 USER apps on phone w/ 6.5 gig left on internal SD.
Nk1 modules
Where can I download Nk1 modules?
thank you
I just wanted to thank you for this rom. It works great, and is the only one I've had zero problems installing. Are you going to be developing one for the lollipop update once it's released? Perhaps one that can be installed with safestrap so that we don't have to do the ota update and lose root access?
Problems with GPS and Keyboard.
Hi I'm still new to flashing roms and such. But I have a Verizon S4 with a FRESH INSTALL of NK1 Towel rooted with Safestrap v3.75, I've attempted to install your rom to my phone and it goes through fine. I have flashed the NK1 Modules. However my GPS is locked on PowerSaving, I can not switch to accurate. Also when I attempt to switch to SwiftType (Keyboard) it prompts me that it may collect data, I ok that and it goes back to Samsung Keyboard. How can I override these? I am having issues with "EGR_TWUI_321". Thanks for your help. If you need more information let me know what you need and I'll try to reply promptly.
So just out of curiosity I wiped my system and started over from a base NK1 then I went through the steps of rooting and Safestrap, but I installed the 3-4-15 version this time. And the above issues are not present. However I really dislike this one when compared to the newest one when it comes to theme and customizing. It's also not as bloat free as the other one. I still have Amazon music and NFL and even VZTones.... Any idea why the newest one is breaking the GPS and the Keyboard? I really want to run that one again =(

It sounds like you either done a dirty flash or your system didn't get wiped properly.
That or those apps are being restored from the Play Store. I could be wrong but I don't believe any of those apps are even in the rom.
Maybe a factory reset (full wipe) and a clean install would solve your issues.

Thanks I'll try starting over from base and seeing what happens and I'll update you. Towel is the app used to root the NK1 firmware, safestrap is the app that we who are stuck on Verizon with a locked bootloader have to use to flash roms. SwiftKey is a keyboard app from the play store. Or where you talking about my second flash with the 3-14-15?

Check the replies in the development build. T399 has to download an app specified in the development but people with the T399N seem to have no problems with v23.
Sent from my SGH-T399 using XDA Premium app
The developer Acreaperjb needed people to test the ROM and kireflow seems to have the SGH-T399N while he is meant to develop it for the SGH-T399. Is he now making a hybrid build for both models?

wow
Had the lightwave rom on this before, and it worked well. After a few hrs of running cm i am blown away at the performance. Buttery smooth. Calls crisp, no issues whatsoever aside from the camera. Got xposed on it, gravitybox and greenify working great so far
And just thought I'd try it with the Camera MX from playstore and voila, it works! One picture at least
Bluetooth freezes calling app
Hi everyone, first of all, big thanks to AcreaperJB
I just installed version 0.2.3, overall I really like the ROM, I have two issues with it, really it's just one that I care about, here I go
1 - the big deal) I can't make calls over Bluetooth, after dialing I hear maybe one signal, maybe two if I'm lucky, after that the calling apps freezes, can't finish the call, can't call anybody else, can't hear anything, even turning off Bluetooth won't restore things, I can switch between apps and everything is fine except the calling app it's just stuck until I restart the phone, no more calling basically
2 - the workaround) camera will crash right after taking the photo, won't save the photo, I installed open camera from the play store and it works fine, I know it's a known issue, I just want to confirm it
Things to mention
- I did full install, all the partitions got wiped except the external SD card partition where I kept the ROM
- installation was scary, after installing the ROM it would circle back and forth, it was restarting and it wouldn't let me do anything, as soon as it got to CM wizard it restarted, I had no way to stop it or pause it so after about 10 restarts I gave up and just moved on and left the phone do restarts and I took care of other things around the house, already started thinking on how to go back to the stock rom, after coming back to the phone about two hours later the CM was waiting for me, got so surprised that it got out of the endless loop, i finished the wizard, went into CM and it doesn't restart anymore
thanks again
Uhm
Hey, does anyone know of a fix for the YouTube app? It keeps saying 'an error has occurred touch to retry'
SIM Card not detected?
So I clean installed the dirty v.0.2.3 and when it went to setup it said my sim card wasn't detected. Did I miss something? Does the "dirty" mean I won't get data? I'm new to this and I don't really know what the lingo means. I also can't change the APN's. It says "Access point name not available for this user".
I can't make any phone calls nor send any texts. My cellular data doesn't work either. Wi-fi and everything else works fine. Just the actual service.
Am I missing a step?
I flashed the ROM with twrp 2.8.4.0, I wiped davlick, data, cache, etc. I did the clean install, I don't understand why I am not getting any service or why my sim card isn't detected.
Please help
I need another link to download

Screen going blank upon boot
I tried installing this rom after doing a full backup & then wipe. I made sure to wipe dalvik and cache. I then installed the 0.2.3.zip via TWRP 2.7.1.0 that comes with Light V3 Rom.
Install completed without error but upon boot the setup menu appears and then vanishes. I can get it to display ever-so-briefly by powering the display off/on.
I have a T-Mobile T399 unlocked for use on ATT. Unjustified Devs earlier builds did the same thing but would constantly reboot as well. Your rom doesn't reboot but the screen behaves similarly.
Have you heard of this behavior before, and are there any steps I can take to provide you with diagnostic information?

Answer: CM12-Light BETA for t399n camara workaround.
I have installed cm12 for the Samsung galaxy light t399N.. I am happy to report Everything is working fine! except the stock camera, I tried 7-8 camera apps on the Google play store with no luck, until.... VIOLA, I found one that works. It is called FOTOR. it works now. I have an extra step to deal with but the point is that my phone is now fully functional and running 5.02 lollipop on my METRO PCS t399n. BTW i did not have to edit the apn settings; interestingly, I have an indicator that tells me I have T-Mobil for my carrier.... Thank goodness for the recent merger and switch over to the T-Mobil network, one more problem solved. Hope that helps someone else out there.
thanks
