Why don't you just use Swype from the play store not the version that comes with the phone or swiftkey the Swype has more features from the play store it has skins and the hand writing feature and everything

I've purchased swift key and had it for my s2 butbi get bored of it easily I just love the stock keyboard but would want it white x.x but theres no way right? 0.- I tried changing my apk with the international version but I guess I got the wrong file cause its the same x.x

Question for Clark44 or qbking77

Ok I watched the video. My recovery is twrp. I made a backup with twrp. My method of root is the excact way in qbking77s video. I downloaded titanium backup and backed up everything on the phone. Both backups are on my sd card. Here are my questions.

1. After wipe do i need to re-download titanium to install that backup? I have never used titanium backup before.

2. Are there any other steps I need to do once I install the zip? by this i mean, i see lots of people having to do extra stuff that was not in the video

I just dont wonna screw this up.

Once you install the ROM open up titanium back-up and restore your stuff. Simple.

Also, If you are using a launcher like apex or holo back up your settings and desk top settings. Keeps all your apps (not widgets)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ifly4vamerica:
In Pref of TB you can choose to create a .zip file that will restore TB, I often flash a rom then flash the TB .zip in the same session. Or you can flash the rom then redownload TB from the play store also. However to restore a TB backup you will need TB installed somehow.

Just one thing to add, be careful when restoring "everything" with TB often restoring system setting and/or system apps can cause lots of problems. I usually only backup and then restore "user apps and data". So as stated above flash ROM then restore user apps and data and you should be good to go. You will still have to set up the system setting and google account etc which can be a pain but it is the cleanest way of doing things. Of course you can experiment with restoring account data wifi data and bluetooth settings also I find that a lot of those work also but just be aware if you run into problems these could be the culprit.

I know over over in the s3 forum there were developers that would port stuff like that when I had my s3 maybe you could check over there and see if someone will port it for you that is familiar with porting I know the developer of axis Rom for the s3 does Davis like that for people sometimes if you ask him
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ls1ssz28:
Ok so I downgraded TWRP and wiped everything twice. I restored all my user apps and just checked I'm still at 315 apps when I wipe cache and restart.

What else can I do in regards to this issue, or is 315 apps sound about right?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sweets55:
No doesn't sound right. Maybe try different recovery?

Thanks I'll check it out

---------- Post added at 08:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 AM ----------

Guys I dont know if this was safe but when I rooted my phone obviously you didn't need to wipe data but when I was going on the freegs4 rom I had to make a backup for system boot and data. And to get the rom I guess you have to wipe data right so after backing up I wiped the data and all that then after booting up my phone I went back to recovery and restored my data and everything has been working fine :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ls1ssz28:
I understand that, but still I just want a rough idea of what's going on.

I have roughly 10-15 apps... And still 315 apps sounds way too high.

So what is the number I should be around?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jellybeanteeker:
I think like 140 with no apps I get to 195 but I got a total of 45 apps and well some are stock apps so around 170
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ls1ssz28:
Ok so I'm on TWRP .02

What do I need to do to fix this, I've tried everything and it's starting to really bother me because I've tried everything.

Just curious but could a bad download of the rom cause this?

When I flash the rom, i also go ahead and flash the stock modded bar and 100% transparent mod.

All work fine but again I'm around 315 apps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jellybeanteeker:
Did you flash them all together?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ls1ssz28:
Here's how I did it.

Wipe everything including data.

Flash rom - clear cache and dalvik - flash modded ui - clear cache and dalvik - flash transparent mod - clear cache and dalvik - boot for the first time, and this is where I see optimizing apps out of 315

I've recleared my cache and dalvik and still 315...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] njspank:
This just occurred with me during my lunch time jog. The volume kept increasing and decreasing on its own. I'm on the stock kernel and using PowerAmp!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jellybeanteeker:
You should of cleared data and cleared cahe and dalvik then flashed the rom and booted up then. Then go back to recovery and clear cache and dalvik then flash the zips and then boot up

---------- Post added at 10:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:00 AM ----------

Is the rom and transparent and status bar working?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ls1ssz28:
Everything is working minus the insane amount of apps i have.

I did wipe everything and that included cache and dalvik before I flashed the rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jellybeanteeker:
Are random apps there or just like how you had it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] travisw0204:
I get the same thing when I wipe cache and dalvik cache and reboot. I have well over 70 apps and, counting the apps in the system, 315 is a bit high. I'm wondering if the updates have anything to do with it. For example, when you update an app via the Play Store it doesn't replace your current app with the new app. It adds the new app on top of the old app without deleting the old app. I'm wondering if that has anything to do with it? I've unrooted, went back to MDC, took the OTA, flashed TWRP via Odin, made a nand of the current setup on stock MDL, wiped EVERYTHING 3 times and then flashed Free GS4. I flashed the CRT animation to check it out for one of my boys and I wiped cache and dalvik cache. When I rebooted, it optimized 315 apps. I'm not noticing anything acting quirky so I'm not too concerned about it but it does seem like a lot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ls1ssz28:
Exactly the rom is running fine and not acting strange but still it is weird for the app number to be so high, I mean there has to be something causing this
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jellybeanteeker:
There wouldn't be 2 apps it just replaces the app and adds more features or what the update has

---------- Post added at 10:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:16 AM ----------

What version of twrp are you using?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jellybeanteeker:
Have you got goo manager? You should have 2.5.0.2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jellybeanteeker:
I heard 2.5.0.3 has been failing
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] njspank:
Did the CRT animation work for you? If so, which kernel are u running?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ls1ssz28:
I downgraded back to .02 because I read .03 was having issues
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] travisw0204:
Yeah it worked using Agat's kernel in this rom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] daniel4653:
Don't think this is true. When I first rooted my gs4 about 1 week ago and installed no ROM, kept it stock odexed. And I wiped cache +dalvik, with about 25 apps I installed from the market , it was about 300 on first boot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] w8setter:
CRT animation works on stock MDL kernel also...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ls1ssz28:
That's what I'm curious about is what is the number of apps we should have.. Because alot of people are reporting really high numbers as well
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] xeks:
Just noticed that I don't have S Health. Any way to get that back?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Try reflashing the ROM. You must have uninstalled it :p

The best way to ensure that you are getting the correct number of apps installed is by wiping the /system partition as well as the /data partition because FreeGS4 writes to both.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ls1ssz28:
Clark I want to say thanks for all the work, I've used your rom on the S3 and now the s4.

But I did wipe everything multiple times actually to be sure, cache, system, dalvik, media etc.. Everything I'm pretty sure and I still have apps in the 300+ range...

I haven't ever tried CWM, always TWRP do you all think that would make a difference?

I downgraded my TWRP because people were saying it was the 0.3 that was causing issues and even with 0.2 I still had 300+ apps
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Where in the ROM are you reading this 300 number? I can nandroid and clean flash so we can compare the values
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ls1ssz28:
Boot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik and reboot it will restart and display optimizing x amount of apps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
Yes mine optimizes a good 350+ everytime so you are good :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Ls1ssz28:
Thanks for looking into this and good to know that I didn't do something wrong or overlook a step.. I was just in a hurry to get the best rom on my phone :thumbup:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] w8setter:
Just wanted to say great job on the rom....I ran this on the S3...and now I'm back....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] clark44:
No problem I'm glad all is well :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Inline:
Yeah having 300+ apps while "optimizing" is a non issue. Even if you barely have any. There was a nice technical explanation somewhere I'll try and find it - but basically it isn't taking up any extra space or anything like that and the huge number doesn't mean anything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] tkgadgetman:
356 apps for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] gharlane00:
375 for me. No apparent duplicates anywhere. Very little time to update the "extra" apps. Must be a manifest file that is not properly updating.

I can't wait until the Aroma installer is all figured out for these, then you'll be able to pick and choose what you want right from the flash.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Bohn101:
​I've flashed this ROM and am fairly pleased with it. Got a few questions though.

1. Does this really not have Swype installed, or am I missing something?

2. Do the volume media controls work? (Couldn't get them to.)

3. Can I change the battery indicator so that it does the circle with percentage? (Saves real estate.) (Wolf Pack Flashables?)

4. Can we get the dark dialer the S3 uses? White is too bright and eats batteries with AMOLED's.

I had the Blazer ROM for the S3 and loved all of the above. I've got the Swype sorted out. I had used Titanium Backup to backup everything on the stock S4, so I just restored that app. If anyone else needs I can post it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] wojo797:
If you like Swype I highly recommend the Google keyboard from the playstore..same keyboard as cyanogen .the predictive spell check is the best out there imo

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] xeks:
SwiftKey is on sale if it's not over.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Bohn101:
Thanks for the responses. However, I've already sorted the keyboard out by reinstalling the original Swype, which works well. If I install a Wolf Pack flash, how do I uninstall it or install a different one? Can you install like 3 different ones? I'm not sure how they work, or what they look like. Are there screen shots of the different indicators?

I think I'd like to have the volume keys control media tracks more than anything. Does anyone know how to implement that?

Looking at the dialer again and thinking about it. If one were to simply invert the colors, it would be a dark sweet dialer..........Actually I just tried it and it kinda sucks, but you get the point.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] xCovErtWolFx757:
To get back to original settings I'd recommend making a copy of your SystemUI.akp and adding ".bak" to it and placing it somewhere safe so all you would have to do is delete the new one and paste yours. This is the screen shot for MentholSmoothVzw4GLTE

Question: Would it be possible to have the signal bars for 3g/4g disappear when on WiFi. The ROM on my old EVO LTE did this and it was nice, just saves some real estate in the notifications bar.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] apexcell:
It's under the "Status Bar" page, under the "Signal Icons" heading. Just take the checkmark off the box next to "Persist data icon - Always show data type icon, even when WiFi is on."

Seriously, someone has to know how to change the volume keys to change music tracks when the screen's off, right!?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] xCovErtWolFx757:
That battery is the only one I created so far. The other ones are stock with 1% and each battery has the choice of the Vzw4GLTE icon. But my picture and your picture we are using the same amount of space. A simple resize will give you more space. I infact will not be making a circle battery mod as I do not like it at all. If you remove the am/PM you'll add more space also
