Thanks for a Great Rom!!

I have been using this rom since the the update and once I changed to the latest agat kernel I have had no issues at all. It is one of the smoothest most bug free roms I have ever used. It has a nice balance of removing bloat but still giving the options I want. Really great work!

I know people ask about updates and I am always anxious for the latest and greatest but at the same time stability and functionality really trump just quickly pumping out new versions. I am not so impressed with Android 4.3 and kind of hope the next update will be Kitkat which on my nexus 7 is pretty awesome so far. So I will wait as long as it takes for an update and am really grateful for all the work you put into this rom!!

I just wanted to post to say thanks!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jrollercoasters:

Great question!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] MCL1981:
How can I make the OTA update notification go away?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jrollercoasters:
I wish I knew I hate my notification bar all clogged up it takes away from the other apps I actually want up there

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rtwrobert10:
I don't believe there is a way :/ it's the same with mine
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] k2buckley:
In your notification pull down, long hold the update notification. Then press app info when it pops up. Then uncheck show notification. Should be good after that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rockness77:
That worked for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] MCL1981:
I'm trying to change the notification bar clock to WHITE from the light grey it is now. Using Nottach. No matter what I do, it won't change. Suggestions?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Teknician:
Have you tried System Settings - My Device - Rom Control and the Status Bar Clock Options?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] MCL1981:
DOH! I knew there was another way and I was being stupid. Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Teknician:
LOL I just found it the other day.

Crap. Better change my sig. Starting to like this Rom. May stock for a while. Been a great DD for the last couple days with no problems at all.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Nwbmonkey:
couple of questions,

1. i'm already on 4.3 MJA, rooted and running stock rom. I noticed this is 4.2. I'm under the impression you can NOT go back to 4.2 once you are on 4.3 MJA. Is this correct? Can I flash this ROM?

2. My friend was wondering if this is available for AT&T as well?

Thanks Gentlemen
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Teknician:
I'm on MJA except bootloader and running just fine. You shouldn't have any problems at all. Just make sure you backup first.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] wilzard:
anyone tried mk2?

I'm wondering if I can safely flash mk2 modem only on this ROM or could/should I install the mja firmware only? Does anyone know if agat's kernel play nice with mk2?

Anyone reading the thread tried mk2 modem and/or firmware?

I'm bored while waiting on a download.

This ROM has been my daily driver for months now...

Of course - backup first. If nobody has tried it I will be the guinea pig and hopefully report back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] wilzard:
I made a nand then tried to restore to test in twrp 2.6.3.0 and it deleted my system folder and failed. So i went full commando and installed a different ROM. Sorry, peeps, I can't tell you whether or not mk2 works with this ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Toonlinkmaster25:
Does anyone know if the wolf packs work for 4.3?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] intron1:
I don't know how to ask this delicately without breaking any rules. So..... here goes.

I love love love this ROM. I have had no issue with it and I am really enjoying it.

I haven't been missing the 4.3 love until this: http://xdaforums.com/nexus-4/themes-apps/app-polar-beat-android-polar-heart-t2588027

I want this app because it pairs nicely with my heart rate monitor but it won't install unless you have 4.3

So, I guess I have 2 questions:

1. Anyone know any way around this? Could it be installed on 4.2 if we just spoofed it?

2. If not, I just want to make sure this rom is active. It hasn't had a post in over a month. That might be a great thing, people don't have much to complain about. But I guess what I am getting at is that if Clark is going to work on a 4.3 update then I will go back to the shadows and wait patiently. But if he has no plans to update then it would be nice to know so I can investigate other options.

I am not asking for a timeline or a "whine, when will it be done".... I just want to confirm the fact that someone, somewhere has the intention of updating it. Hope that isn't rude or against any rules.

Thanks! (and thanks to Clark for such a great ROM)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rtwrobert10:
So is development for this ROM dead??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ROMANTiC KiD:
Why would you ask such a thing?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rtwrobert10:
Just hasn't been updated in a while. Love the stability of this thing, would just be nice if there was a more recent version.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] EvoN00b:
Finally got around to updating from MDL to MF9 and flashed 3.0. Was having trouble with WiFi not working so I installed the agat kernel, WiFi is working now but I can not for the life of me get the Home button to wake the phone. I've tried it in ROM Control, Wanam Xposed and Nottach Xposed. Kind of annoying but I guess it is what it is.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] MCL1981:
Mine started getting very unstable after a few months. Since development of this rom seems to be dead, I've gone to Carbon KitKat. Highly recommend if anyone wants something fresh and AOSP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] wilzard:
I ran this ROM from the night I brought my gs4 home, first v2.0 and later flashed to v3.0 and mf9 radio.

What I loved about this ROM was that it was essentially flawless, pretty close to stock touchwiz, and very stable.

I loved this ROM, loved the body of work the dev had put in to it. I held out hope for months that clark44 would find the time to update us to 4.3 but that time never came.

I hope clark44 is OK and having a good life.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] xSkyFlasherx:
I hope this rom gets updated soon
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] tones160:
Well i'm using Shabbat's custom kernel right now but won't i have any conflict flashing this ROM with my current kernel since it's not stock? :rolleyes:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] P.Mobile:
?? all u need to do is flash a diff kernel which u said u did.. so u should be fine.. i flashed the rom then i flashed a custom kernel and all is well
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] tones160:
Yea, will do that. I'm trying my best options not to get my phone bricked hehe
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] P.Mobile:
huh?? why does that have anything to do with bricking your phone? flashing a roms made for your phone and flashing a kernel made for your phone is NOT going to brick your phone bro.. Now if u flash a rom or kernel that not made for your device then maybe that mite brick ya phone
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] tones160:
Well that's a relief. I'm always reading about guys bricking their phones and i figure may be our phones is too new for any advanced modifications. Definitely flashing this ROM tonight. Thanks a lot bro!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] travisw0204:
You will NEVER brick your phone if you take the time and educate yourself on exactly what it is you're flashing. Reading is a huge aspect of us doing what we do with our devices. The people that brick their phones don't read or ask questions. That's when problems arise. If you are unsure about something just ask but read the Op before you ask a question that's been answered a few times because people will flame you for that. As long as you read before you flash, you should be good to go and if you have questions, ask before you flash to make sure you are doing it right.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] P.Mobile:
gesshh!! its super quit in here.. lol everyone must have got drunk early and passed out ;) :laugh: :p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] tones160:
Well definitely starting to. I normally just read what ever has been highlight or bolded. Thanks :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Son Rise:
Isn't This Rom The Same As. ForceROM 1.1?? Whats The Difference. They Both Have The Sprint Crapware Gonee?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] k2buckley:
Not at all. ForceRom 1.1 is based on MDC build and is fully debloated, no bloatware. This rom is based on latest MDL build, and is has all stock apps, or "bloat". A lot of the stock apps have been moved to the data/app directory so they're easily uninstalled. You can choose what to remove, as opposed to ForceRom you need to add some things back. All of this is posted in the OP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] fgr:
In the process of getting drunk, but also made good use of my time.

Got framework-res and SystemUI to compile properly after editing...

Now have a percent battery gauge with animated charging, no clock in the status bar, and the phone doesn't wake when plugging it in or unplugging it. :laugh:

Now I have to figure out how to get rid of that annoying warning when speakers are plugged in and I crank up the volume...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
I had framework-res.apk fixed for next update :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Great news guys!! [MENTION=2953465]agat63[/MENTION] has cooked up a FreeGS4 custom kernel!! Expect it to be as much stock enhanced as possible to keep this FreeGS4 style :thumbup: It will be included in the next release. Stay tuned

Edit:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] P.Mobile:
Sweet man! cant wait :good: thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] tkgadgetman:
Is this ROM odeved or Deodexed.

What does this do? "Disabled SMS to MMS conversion"

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Shadow_God:
Sweet......he is the man.....so did that do the trick?

Sorry I got caught up yesterday with the family and couldn't do much of anything with the issue after that morning
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
I havent tested yet but I will have a new build for you testers today.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Shadow_God:
Well lets hope it solves the mystery:thumbup:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cheddaface:
Anyone know how to remove talkback?? ive checked and tried all methods that ive found and it still seems to be talking to me
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] travisw0204:
I just deleted it from system/apps and I never had an issue with it. It also may be in data/apps if it's not in system/apps or it may be in both.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] fgr:
Will this have exFAT support? :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] CHUUZE:
xposed framework works great for me

along with modules like app settings, modaco toolkit, xposed tweakbox, and nottch xposed you should be able to find the settings you want.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dreDrennon1:
If you use Nova Launcher you can change the icon size, how many rows are in your home screens and things like that so it is basically like the paranoid android settings without needing up your framework
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
On stock, there is a limit to how long an SMS is until it is considered a MMS. When the phone converts it to an MMS it is very inconvenient for the reveiever to have to "watch" your text message. This MOD assures that every text noe matter how long comes out as a text.

The ROM is deodexed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] citron01:
Does the rom have the volume warning disabled? I ride a motorcycle and its impossible for me to raise volume while on the road currently.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
I hope to have that implemented in the next release.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] citron01:
That is fantastic news! I look forward to flashing your ROM after using FreeGS3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Great :D Much more to come. Stay tuned.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] alexnaoumi:
Hey guys I installed this rom on my friends s4 and he keeps getting these messages and I'd like to know how to get rid of it.

1. The device has detected an application attempting unpermitted actions. To protect your device it is recommended you reboot (and it happens after every reboot)

2. Install super user. The su binary is out of date and I've tried doing it through the super user app and through recovery and the message still comes up after reboots
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] k2buckley:
Freeze SEAndroid.apk. problem will be gone.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] phistyle:
changelog looks nice!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
No ETA at the moment but consider "very soon"
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] xeks:
Sounds great...Just curious if other kernels will play nice with this ROM? Used to run FreeGS3 with KT Kernel and would love to do the same on my S4. Thanks :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] kyhassen:
Dude you rock. You have progressed very quickly with this device. Anyway to implement the 3 minit by any chance? It works already on your current version. If not that's Ok :)

[MENTION=3805348]xeks[/MENTION] yes you can switch to KT's kernel. That's the one I'm using right now. You can use any kernel as long as it's for the required device and the operating system TW.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mjs2011:
The creator of 3minit doesn't want it ported into roms bit you're right. It plays very nicely with this rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
I have no intention on including it in the ROM by default but you can still install and enjoy it on this ROM :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] travisw0204:
Looks like I'm gonna be flashing my very first Rom since owning this beast. Looks AWESOME
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shuddle13:
So I picked up my VZW GS4 yesterday from Best Buy. I was out to dinner with my cousin, and the battery died (after a full day of very heavy usage). I tried to turn it back on to check something quickly, and when I did, the Samsung boot screen showed the unlocked bootloader symbol, with the words custom underneath it. I thought I was crazy and seeing things, so I rebooted again, and it was still there. Has anyone else run into this? I find it hard to believe that my bootloader just randomly unlocked itself.

I attached an image so people can tell me if that really is what it seems. Let me know if anyone has any idea what is going on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] chrisomnia1:
Achievement unlocked!

Hey, less work for you in the end. (if you like to flash and rom that is)

I say Congrats!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vanydotk:
Did you root and not flash the original kernel back on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shuddle13:
No. I had decided not to fiddle with anything until I decided how I liked the stock Touchwiz UI. I had the GNex before this, and messed with that to my hearts content, running clockworkmod recovery and cyanogenmod 10.1., but was waiting to try anything on this. That's why I'm confused, I've done absolutely nothing to it to customization wise. I haven't even set a wallpaper yet lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arcanexvi:
Maybe they shipped you a dev unit. Wouldn't be the first time lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ThugosaurusRex:
That's awesome, lucky you :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shuddle13:
If I got a dev edition, that is awesome :laugh:, saves me a lot of work down the road if I decide to run a custom rom. I swear I had rebooted it at least once (I feel like it might have been 2 or 3 times) prior to this, and don't remember it being there before. But now I'm second guessing myself - maybe I hadn't rebooted up to that point, or I did and just didn't notice it. That's what is throwing me off more than anything, I thought it just happened randomly, which I found hard to believe considering the amount of work that goes into finding a way to unlock a phone's bootloader.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shuddle13:
So this leads me to a more important question. As I said earlier, I planned on keeping stock rom with Touchwiz for now (I know how many people feel about it, please don't give me 20 replies telling me how awful it is) but my main concern at this point is that I'm getting the bootloader unlocked symbol, and the word custom. When I go into settings and check the info on my phone, it tells me that device status is 'custom'. Now, correct me if I am wrong (but I'm fairly certain I'm not) I won't be able to get any OTA updates, because it will read my device as custom - and this is where I'm fairly certain something wonkey has happened, because I remember playing around in settings yesterday and seeing that it said device status 'official'. Basically, any speculation as to what the heck might happened (it isn't something any app could have done either, if that's even possible. I'm still setting up the device and barely have anything on there, and certainly not anything that would cause my phone to say custom) and any way at this point to get it back to device status official? I know a root method had just been released, but I wasn't sure about unroot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
That is not indicating an unlocked bootloader. Your phone has been rooted and the person that did it either did not odin back to the stock kernel or he flashed a custom recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
I have the same screen out if the box. So I decided to root and install cwm but it failed. Reading more they say it fails because the locked boot loader. So I'm confused

After rooting i flashed the stock kernel back. And that screen as seen in the first screenshot has not changed..

What do you think?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shuddle13:
So I'd go with my phone being rooted, which doesn't really make sense unless someone at the Samsung Factory rooted it before sending it out, except I have a weird development. I pulled the sd card I bought (64GB Samsung Pro MicroSDXC Extreme Speed (UHS-1) Class 10 Memory Card), from Amazon directly, not a retailer on Amazon) turned it back on, and now I'm not getting the unlocked symbol and device status is back to official. I rebooted, turned it off, did a battery pull, and turned it back on, every combination of restarting the device I could think of, and every time it says official. I put the memory card back in, and at first it says official. Then I reboot, and it goes back to being unlocked and custom. Going to try formatting the SD card to see where that gets me, but at this point, it makes no sense to me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] chrisjm00:
I flashed back to the stock kernel after flashing the exploit one and I have the same screen on start up. Not sure why but it doesn't really bother me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] zregnier:
Since rooting I've randomly had that screen too. I just rebooted and didn't have it this time. No clue what's going on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shuddle13:
I tested the memory card theory, and that is in fact the problem. Tried formatting it, but it still causes my phone to read custom. Not sure if it is a faulty memory card, if the phone can't read this type of memory card (I know some devices can't read SDXC UHS-1 cards, but I thought I researched and the S4 should), or it's a software issue with the phone that needs patched. I'm leaning toward the last one, but got in touch with Amazon and they are sending me a replacement card. Will update once I get the new card. If anyone else is experiencing the same or similar issues, or has any idea what is going on, I would appreciate the input. Like I said before, it's not a major issue until I need to do an OTA update. At that point, worst case scenario, if the problem isn't fixed, I can always just pull the memory card. But don't want to go through the hassle if I can pinpoint the problem and fix it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ThugosaurusRex:
That's weird, my 32gb sandisk microsd doesn't effect it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] krazykevin76:
Have the same issue with the lock showing on bootscreen randomly. I haven't tried this morning but I think I am on something. Setup a link with foldermount, something from internal memory to the SD card. After a reboot and foldermount sets up the link at boot up, reboot and see if you get the lock /custom boot screen
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
I have the same issue and have another thread going on it. It said it once when reboot and device status changes from custom to original randomly in settings. Bought the phone brand new from Verizon yesterday.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] EVOme:
Very odd. I get that now, but I rooted to get it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
Root has nothing to do with being unlocked though therefor I think it would do it bone stock like mine as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] EVOme:
Well, I never saw the unlock icon until I flashed that pre kernel and then the stock kernel...now I get it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
I get it from bone stock out of the box. And I'm not the only one. So it's gotta be a known issue now. I want to root my phone etc. But I'm waiting for official unlocks of everything and some custom roms.
