Clarification please

I'm fresh from Galaxy Nexus, so forgive my n00bness with more locked down devices, but don't you need to already have root to run the Goo Manager install recovery script? Can I run it on my completely stock straight-from-the-store Verizon Galaxy S4?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sporty377:
No... u have to root first
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jgrimberg1979:
No not for me at least. I will have to do a full restore via Odin because my phone won't boot and twrp is failing each time I try and restore from a backup
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skrowl:
Sooo... to get root I have to have root first?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sporty377:
Well to install a custom recovery u have to be rooted
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BladeRunner:
you don't need a custom recovery to get root. Use Odin to flash the pre-release kernel, use motochopper to get root, use odin to flash back the stock kernel. THEN use goo to get TWRP
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blulite:
I loaded via TWRP and stuck at Verizon Boot image. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prerunnerseth:
Thanks for the update. I'll wait for something more stable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
The odex version seems to work fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Sidewind75:
It is Saying not found for the ODex Download
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcflyrk01:
same here... it won't boot into recovery using vol up + home + power. how do we fix this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scuccia:
Same thing happened to me. I had to do a factory restore via ODIN.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcflyrk01:
ah, that's exactly what i've been searching for. thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BeansTown106:
so no one has got deodexed rom to work? did u wipe first? coming from odex to deodex id assume a wipe is needed.. just got home from work gonna retest it now

edit something is wrong with deodex.. gonna redo it now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JBeXX:
I held off flashing after I saw the couple reports of freezes at boot.

If you need any testers after the redo, I'd be happy to help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nickhimself:
Am I the only one who can't access d-h.st? It won't load for me at all, even though the site is apparently up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Larry Fortune:
Me too! I had to boot into TWRP recovery using GooManager.

The odex version is still 'not found' on the first post. Is it still available for download?? Where please?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sac23:
sup guys just joined verizon from sprint hope fully could start to get u guys a rom with a bunch of tweaks in it :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Sparatan117:
I'm not sure that anyone wants this, but it's about the closest thing we can get to AOSP right now ... and by that I mean stock looking launcher -> http://d-h.st/OZ0

yeaaaa... even if the house looks like crap, at least the living room can look fairly decent. :)

Actually I take that back, this version of Touchwiz isn't half bad, but there are some things that really bug me. Mostly the notification pull down... but I'll shush .. enjoy
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
There is a working version of PA, AOKP and CM on sxtp, all of which are a lot closer to pure AOSP than this. Look at the PA thread.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sac23:

[MENTION=4395895]beanstown106[/MENTION]

the reason y the deoxed roms not working is boot.img is spelled wrong im assuming
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BeansTown106:
Its spelled boot.lok right? Thats what its supposed to be cuz the kernel is edited, its the same boot.lok the odex version has ill get it figured out tonight I got sun and mon off of work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xdadevnube:
So yeah, I tried deodex version and got bootloop. Restoring this Odin stock file found here:

http://www.sxtpdevelopers.com/showthread.php?t=237

Will reply back so people will know if it works properly.

The link to the above stock odin file works fine for me. The odex ROM download started going super slow, so I just rooted my stock image and got it up and running for now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scuccia:
I was able to get the stock ROM fully deodexed and booting.

I used the dsixda kitchen (0.223_rev8) and a had to use baksmali 1.41 and 1.42. I see that disxda just released 0.223_rev9 so you'll probably want to use that as it has more S4 fixes.

When you deodex you'll want to use baksmali 1.41 for everything except for framework.jar and services.jar. You can probably get away with using 1.42 for everything though.

baksmali 1.42

baksmali 1.41

smali 1.42

smali 1.41
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpmcnown:
Really anxious to see if that .tar restores it to stock ok. I don't have a need for it, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time before I screw this thing up. Thanks for the link, downloading.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] INTELLER3271:
It works I got stuck in the deodex bootloop yesterday, and restored it, using that odin stock file.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] golfinglenn:
Beans,

Just a big thank you for a post in the Verizon Note 2 JB17 thread praising this phone. Picked one up yesterday from Costco and fits the bill perfect (bigger than S3, smaller than Note 2, and fast as hell!!). Looking forward to getting beanstown on this bad boy when you get around to releasing it. :victory::victory::victory:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] budwizer:
It worked for me. I had a strange issue this morning where my power button quit working to turn the screen off however would still pull up the power menu if I long pressed it. I just flashed that over odin a few minutes ago and rooted my phone again. Going to load up the Beans odex now to test it out while we wait for the deodex build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BeansTown106:
thanks :P glad it wasnt some type of security added gonna do this now and upload it/get to making a jellybeans rom :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] linkman88:
I got bootlooped on the DeOxed Rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] budwizer:
Deodex one is not working at the moment. Beans is working on an update to it to fix the bootlooping issue. For now use the odex one or stock if you want to staying on TW based ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] linkman88:
Oh Ok... Thank you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mikeyinid:
Awesome, and for the love of GOD, get rid of the E911 icon :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mbh87:
Just make it transparent like I told you :p

Easy enough for a temp solution.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mikeyinid:
I tried to get you to share yours on twitter...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mbh87:
I did, but it has the white battery images too https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9264026/WhiteBatteryS4.zip
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BeansTown106:
got deodex booting uploading now :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mbh87:
debloat that ish first :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JBeXX:
After I'm set back up on deodex, I'll be playing around to find a good functioning inverted aosp messaging. I'll share when I find a working one.

Unless Beans or anyone already knows of a working version?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fallingup:
Good job, still havent had a chance to even peak at it, had to reinstall ubuntu on my build machine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BeansTown106:
thanks :) here is working deodex http://androidhosting.org/Devs/BeansTown106/S4/stock roms/jfltevzw_stockrootdeodexed.zip
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sbreen94:
Hell yeah! Thanks brother. Time to get to work :) This has all the proper compatabilities with the bootloader and junk right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] N1ghtr08d:
I don't usually post too much on here because i don't have that much to input in the way of help and there's way smarter people on here than myself..........that being said i DID manage to figure out a way to help those of us that can't boot back into TWRP.

I found that if i held VOL UP + POWER + HOME that it would go to boot to recovery but then boot loop straight away, however i found that when i goes black after it goes to start recovery that if i let go of the POWER button ONLY and kept holding HOME and VOL UP, that i was able to boot into TWRP and restore from the nandroid backup i had created!!!!!!

Hope this helps some of you in trouble....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jbreaz:
Thanks Beans deodex is working perfectly waiting on your rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blulite:
yes, thanks, all working.

might want to change the install text, still says "installing odex".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] budwizer:
Excellent! Can the deodex build be dirty flashed over your odex build? Just finished setting back up from earlier today and would prefer to not have to wipe everything again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
I am going to make a backup and just try it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Larry Fortune:
Yep! Confirmed!! Good find...Thanks!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] budwizer:
Thanks. I'm backing up now as well and plan on giving it a shot. Figured I'd ask and see if there were any confirmations while it is backing up. Takes awhile for this beast to do a nandroid.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
Seems to be fine with the dirty flash...still had to add back in the AOSP browser, etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joqsan:
Does anyone know if we are just supposed to flash with no gapps. Also do we have to do a complete clean wipe or can we just flash on top of the stock that came with the phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] drbveb88:
This is a touch wiz rom..no gapps to flash with this. They are included.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MyComputerDoctor:
Beans, thanks for the legwork. I am putting together a De-Bloated Stock with a bunch of tweaks included. So far I got the ROM under 1GB without killing Touchwiz. I will post the finished product when I get finished (should take me another hour or so).. :good:

Edit:

HERE is a link to the Stock Debloated Version with Extra's - Enjoy! ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] travishamockery:
For some reason recovery won't load for me. Root went fine. I tried to install TWRP from goo twice and it just goes to stock recovery for some reason. Now good says no recoveries found for my device. Any ideas? Figured I'd ask in here since I've run beans ROM forever and you all always help out. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] najaboy:
Goo is down
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stoffelck:
Thought I was going crazy. Went to twrp and the img is not there to dd?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
afh is down, too. Weird that they are both down at the same time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shindiggity:
Goo is back up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] travishamockery:
Still had nothing to do with the problem. I was able to get the recovery and flash in goomanager last night and it didn't take ever. Kept booting to stock recovery.

I was able to get this installed though. Had to manually do it using loki_flash and pulling the recovery file from goomanagers folder. All good now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] budwizer:
If you're still having recovery issues it might be worthwhile to roll back to stock and root your G4 again. Couldn't hurt and you won't lose any data or have to wipe. Recovery should stick and you should be able to pull TWRP from Goo.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] travishamockery:
Thanks, but I got it to stock with the method I mentioned. I'm thinking that whatever caused goo.im to be down this morning was affecting it late last night too and maybe threw a bad image my way. It took forever to download it last night and definitely shouldn't have. I'm all good now though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BeansTown106:
yep fully compatible but if for some reason u need to edit the boot.img message me on gtalk and il walk u through how to re loki it

yepp!! good find i actually found this out also but never posted anything about it lol..

yessir!

oops lol.. it is definetly deodex though..

good deal nice to see you around these parts, i remember u from rootz and the nexus 4 contest :P sorry i didnt vote for u i wanted open source miui lol... oh well.. either way its good to have u on the vzw s4!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MyComputerDoctor:
Maybe we can collaborate on a project in the near future. It's been a while and I really don't have the time to put into doing a full ROM on my own. No worries on the Vote... It was close.. Anyhow, let me know what your thoughts are...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] slackwaresupport:
is this slow downloading for anyone else?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadsterflip:
Anyone know what to freeze to stop receiving ota updates? Just incase iy happens while I am sleeping lol or something. I am sure I still gotta accept it but hey lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crookedview:
As long as you're using a custom recovery you should be ota-proof.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jeremiah_1988:
All works for me so far, great work beans
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BeansTown106:
i would be down :) sounds interesting. do u do alot of stock based roms or are u more into the aosp scene?

i put a mirror for the deodexed rom as im assuming thats what most people are gonna use

delete SDM.apk that is verizons updater

thanks :) glad its going well
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BeansTown106:
well damn aroma touch doesnt work on the s4.. just like it doesnt work on the htc one or note 8 :(

****ty i think aroma makes roms soooooo much more customizable erghhh
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ogrekane313:
can this be dirty flashed ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] notstevek:
I have my s4 rooted (did the pre release kernel via Odin flashed supersu, got root, reflashed stock kernel) I didn't do the bootloader work around, I did install twrp from goo manager, can I install this?

Do I need to do the odin or deoxed version?

Not a noob but came from a gnex, used to nexus phones not locked bootloaders..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Paulb787:
I am able to install ..first boot is good it boots up. after a reboot tho I freeze at the logo with the lock and the Verizon logo?

Am I able to do this with root and twrp?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Coderedpl:
So did you remove the ir watch on app as well? I'm wondering if any of the Samsung apps have to have something else installed if say we want to put one of the remove apps back on. Say for example shealth, will it be a matter of just tossing the app back in?

Looking forward to the build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BeansTown106:
watch on stays in my build i love the app lol

shealth all u have to do is add the app back to the system/app folder
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
I am rooted with twrp installed via goo manager. Do I use the odex or deodex version?? Me gets confused!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ainvar:
Looks good, will be interested in trying this out once you are satisfied with the build/configuration/stability.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
Whichever you want. A lot of mods and themes require doedex because its easier to mod. In theory, odex ROMs are faster, but I think its imperceptible for most people.

---------- Post added at 03:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 PM ----------

Any chance of AOSP browser sneaking in there?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpmcnown:
Frankly, the thing I'm most looking forward to in a Beans Build, is not having more updates than Windows when initially loading. lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] drumdestroyer:
+1

And thank you beans. You are the man!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MyComputerDoctor:
Well, I started developing on the HTC Thunderbolt with Sense, then worked with a number of Development teams and solo with AOSP. I am more of a code hacker than a code developer so working with preexisting code is where I feel most at home. I am putting together a TouchWiz-less project now, but I would love to come up with clever idea's with you. Hit me up on Google Talk (Hangouts) at mycomputerdoctor2010@gmail.com and we can talk in more detail. Take care.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] revolt1:
what I did is freeze tw browser and install root asop browser from the market place
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xXPrOwLeRXx:
Safe Flashing

Is it safe to say you should do a full wipe when installing this over top of the stock factory image? Also for those hoping on getting google wallet working make sure you flash the deodoxed I was half way through the odexed DL when I read that in the google wallet work around OP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Elvis_Marmaduke:
Working good so far, thanks for all the work! Loving being deodexed again! Woohoo!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Wot-75:
Do you mean when installing over the Loki recovery? I flashed this deodexed ROM through TWRP without wiping and had zero issues doing it that way and this ROM is working great... and so is Google Wallet now too!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] golfinglenn:
Can I ask how you guys are getting twrp on your rooted S4's? I got root but can't get a recovery (have always used twrp so familiar with it). I had beans on my S3 and Note2, and can't wait to get it on my S4 when it comes out :).

I tried the goomanager option and didn't seem to work :(.

Glenn

Edit: Im an idiot!!! watched a youtube video and didn't hit the menu button to get into the settings menu on goomanager, I was just trying to do it from the options when you open goo manager. You have to hit menu key, then install OpenRecovery Script. Duh. Hope this helps someone else :).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xXPrOwLeRXx:
I meant flashing over the stock operating system after rooted and recovery installed for the first time. I am using clockwork mod and had no issue with a full wipe. One thing I did notice was the 4g lte icon on the notification bar is different from factory stock anyone else notice this? I have uninstalled alot of additional stuff using uninstall master and not sure if I did it or if it's the Rom.

---------- Post added at 12:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 AM ----------

I used lokis method using adb shell and clockworkmod it's listed in the forums. It's not real clear how to do it definitely not for a noob but I some how figured it out its not explained in great detail and chances are if you don't know what I'm talking about with adb shell you may want to try a different route.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
The icons are different because beans is mixing some tw icons with aosp ones. I for one, would love a flash able zip with the stock tw icons.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thepolishguy:
Beans - I just wanted to +1 the idea of all your tweaks and goodness along with the TouchWiz look.

Initially I hated TouchWiz (on the Note2) but it has really grown on me with the GS4. I think most of it looks pretty sharp.

Oh and for the love of all that is good and righteous please tell me their is a solution for...

"...headset plugged in... " suggested apps. Man I hate that.

Thanks for all your work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sparkerjc:
In nova launcher, create a shortcut "Activities->settings->Pagebuddy" and open it. uncheck earphones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thepolishguy:
If I could thank you a million times... ...it would not be enough.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] djj624:
Anyone else having tibu issues? I'm trying to restore but it keeps hanging. Once was at 2%then after a reboot and another try is stuck at 7%. Any ideas on what's going on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Coderedpl:
Does anybody know for sure whether deodex has an effect on battery life?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fu5ion:
What I did was go into TiBu and freeze pagebuddy altogether. Didnt see a reason to keep it around.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] p-slim:
I also would like to know this
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sirj00:
Hello Beans, Running stock,rooted and I have TWRP 2.5.0.2 installed. I cleared dalvic,cache and system. Installed your rom went thru succesful. But when I reboot

I'm still on the same stock rom. Nothing changed. All amazon apps are there everything the same. What I my doing wrong? thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] p-slim:
This is a stock rom, deodexed rom vs odexed rom means now you can theme but being stock rom it's the same stock apps that come on the phone. He is working on a debloated rom, when is ready he will create a new thread for that rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sirj00:
Correct I understand. Yes I want to stay stock for now but deodexed. So later down the road I can change kernels,etc. He mentioned that he removed some apps and

others are saying some of the icons changed. But yet after my install the apps he removed are still there and icons haven't changed. So how can I tell that's his rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Coderedpl:
You're probably getting confused with his Jellybeans rom he is working on which will be a different rom than this one.

This is just basically stock, the one he's working on has more changes to it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MyComputerDoctor:
Beans,

I don't know how much experience you have with Touchwiz, but I am having difficulties Recompiling SystemUI.apk. I am able to decompile with no issues but when I go to recompile (with no changes in data whatsoever) I get the following error. Note: I was able to decompile and recompile other APK's such as SecSettings.apk but for some reason SystemUI keeps failing. I did apktool if framework-res.apk, twframework-res.apk and also SystemUI.apk and a combination of all three with no success. I tried on Windows and my Linux box with the same error. Let me know what you think....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dopediculous:
I flashed the Deodex straight over top of my already set up, stock (but rooted) and everything is A OK! Flashed a couple mods and still all good :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GameChanger:
Which one to dl odex or deodexed?

Sent from my SCH-I545 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thepolishguy:
If you are going to want to flash some other mods - most are going to be compatible with the deodexed and not the odexed.

If you only want to stay stock rooted - odexed would be fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CraiaSoftware:
You mentioned that you had already found a way to add the wifi toggle. I don't see the ability to do that separately (outside of your upcoming beans ROM). That being said, I know there are a lot of people that would be interested in that toggle if they are not planning on changing ROMs, or just would like to have it now. You would be an even bigger hero if there was a way to make that toggle into a flashable zip. :)

Just sayin'

Thanks for all your hard work. I absolutely loved your Beans Rom on my S3! It is the perfect solution for a customized, AOSP like ROM without the headaches, bugs and failed hardware issues of an actual AOSP (no offence to all the hard work AOSP developers do, but it's a hard trade off those first few months of development to not have bluetooth just to have an AOSP ROM). Looking forward to Jelly 'Beans' Rom on my S4!

EDIT: Wifi Toggle is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2302366
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stackz07:
Beans do you expect your custom Rom to squeeze anymore battery life out of the device than what the stock odex already gets with bloat included? Meaning your debloated and optimized will get more than what I am running now (which is your odex Rom with bloat still installed)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] le0.br4zuc4:
Great!!!!! Can't wait! You rock man
