Heating issue? Well, it doesn't occur as much as the stock rom, that's for sure. The phone heats up because of high cpu usage for quite some time, this is how every phone works, not just the S4.

I don't believe there's an increase in the data space available, samsung has partitioned S4's internal memory to only allow about 8.8gb of user space, the rest is reserved for bloat.

Having a good time with the Nexus 4 experimenting with Franco's kernel.

Something new everyday.

So, if it is ever finalized, may try the s4.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] DocRambone:
Hi, thanks for the suggestions. But i will keep the rom as clean as possible with only the necessary tweaks added.

As both the volume boost as the sound tweak can be added later by the user i will not added to the rom for now.

The aospmix will be without any musicplayer, add the one you like from the market.

Yes, depending of the installed apps

Yes, as users can add the parts they like afterwards i will only keep the basics in the rom.

Heating is samung to fix, or maybe our kernelgurus can do some magic there

Great stuff!! Hey mate, one noob question; do you think cm10 themes can be flashed on this rom.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] chudm:

---------- Post added at 01:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 PM ----------

after wiping, flashing the rom + theme, at the initial config i get systemui closed, again and again, any solution?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] DocRambone:
No, you need a CM based rom fr that.

Read 1st post again: Base first and add addons AFTER reboot.

No, i recommend exdialer, its the best dialer app around.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Nasty_z:
Fantastic job doc. Just flashed the rom, rebooted and then flashed aosp theme. Very well done, looks much better than stock. I have a request, maybe you can add it in the addons sections - the ability to hold back to kill.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] DocRambone:
Yes, thats a feature i like to see to.

Hi

Just flashed and I must say this rom is lightning fast. Now my S3 feels like it has 8 cores. :)

Could you please tell me how to achieve the following:

1. Keyboard is not showing predictive text, does not offers replacements for typos. Even swype input is not working. How can I get these?

2. How can I get the entire set of stock notifications and ringtones. I would like them to appear in the settings/sounds section. I think almost all of them have been removed.

3. How can I get the 4*4 splanner widget.

Thanks in advance and my appologies if already asked and discussed.

Cheers!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] DocRambone:
1: check keyboard settings

2: use the zip, link Download

(install from recovery)

3: add the planner widget from the app link in 1st post

Update:

Some work on the statusbar:
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] shamps:
Thanks Doc. That was quick. I had the setting enabled but it was not working. I reset the settings and swype workd now. Predictions still not working

Edit: ANOTHER reset and all is fine now!!

Will isntall the zip for the ringtones and the s planner widget from the OP.

Thanks for your awesome work.

Cheers!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] jclarel:
Can you tell us if, and how, we can include some of the bloatware apks in your zipped ROM before flashing, so that we do not have to add each apk one by one?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] DocRambone:
Yes, open the rom.zip with 7-zip (or another zip software), add the apks to system/app and flash.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] jclarel:
Thanks. I also assume that your addons (Watchon and Camera modes) also include a folder 'system/app' in the zipped file... can I add the bloatware apks to that same folder and flash as a revised addon... ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] DocRambone:
Yes, you can.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] shamps:
Hey Doc

Returning to the keyboard topic. I have judt realizes one thing. The keyboard is missing the inbuilt dictionary. Thats why its not predicting words and spell corrections. The words that I have typed all this while have been added but the pre-existing dictionary that is there is on stock roms is not there.

Any fix for this shortcoming?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] DocRambone:
No problems here. Use update function in the keyboard settings. It will download the language bases again if missing.

You can flash now and charge later, below 10% battery would have been a problem :)

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] DocRambone:
Hi, did you do a full wipe?, if yes, try to clear media in settings/apps

Do you use an sd card? have lots of media files?.

Media server can be stuck idif you have any corrupt mp3 etc.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] DocRambone:
Skip the "install" part and reboot and you be fine

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Nasty_z:
Aditya, back on the Galaxy S2 there was a similar problem with media server draining the battery like anything. It was later fixed by devs, not by Samsung. Samsung is known to mess one thing or two. It's not a rom problem.

In the meantime, you can download rescan media root from the play store and temporarily stop the media server. You can re enable it when you add new media files to your phone and then disable it again. :)

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] DocRambone:
The V2 has the latest Nova already, but i see that the zipalign process changes the apk so Nova reports it as a modified version.

Anyway, use the supplied nova updater zip to fix this "problem"

To update nova in the future:

Download nova.apk and insert the file into same supplied zip. Flash from recovery.

Ps, rename the apk to Nova.apk to avoid several copies in the system/app folder.

I tried putting the calculator apk back but it's not working. Crashed upon launching.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Nasty_z:
Which calculator.apk did you try?

You can try downloading and installing this from the play store, it looks like the AOSP calculator.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.niks.calc
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] adichandra:
Seccalculator3d.apk if im not mistaken.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Nasty_z:
That's the touchwiz calculator, it probably requires some other apks in order to function and the absence of those apks is causing it to force close..

I don't know which apks are related to it so I can't help you there but you can find countless calculator apps on the market, many better than the touchwiz calculator :good:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buckylastard:
The notification light/led only blinks for about 5 minutes. Because im not looking at my phone every five minutes, i often miss the notification. Why only make it blink for 5 minutes? It defeats the purpose of a notification led if it doesnt notify you when theres something going on. So... Is there a way to make it blink until the notification is cleared?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ingvarr:
OMG, you not got a faulty device are you? Because this does sound really ridiculous - I mean, what, I leave my phone on my desk for 10 mins, then I come back - and see no LED blinking because its already stopped?

I have almost decided on getting One, but this ridiculous "feature" just totally bummed me....
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmc69:
I'm pretty sure it's 5 minutes by design. My One X + is the same way. I called HTC and they said yes, 5 minutes by design. If I recall, no one could find an app either that would extend the time.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ingvarr:
But surely it must be changeable by tweaking the kernel driver (one that works with LED hardware)?
