Just woke up. Sorry I couldn't test your fix last night but happy to see you figured it out. I reverted back to 1.0 and will update to 1.2 as soon as it's posted. Hopefully before my day starts to get crazy at 10:30am.

Thanks again for your hard work and dedication to the new s4 community.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] theresin:
Couldn't agree more. The latest TWRP (VIA GooManger) lagged a bunch of my system and caused quite a few random reboots (specifically after clearing cache or fixing permissions) .. switched to the loki'd CWM and have had more luck. Not crazy about the weird swiping navigation, but I suppose using the volume + power keys is simple enough :P

Oh bugger that! With your Sammy 840 Pro SSD + that MoBo installing Windows 8 Via USB (or DVD, but USB is so much better...) should only take you about 2 minutes, literally. :p

Thanks for getting 1.2 out so quickly. You should really get some sleep though!

IM using the official Koushdeck Touch CWM and its GREAT! Its really fast too...

Like my PC.

How did you know what SSD I had? lol

But yes, I do all my OS installs from USB Drive.

IM still tuning the O/C and voltage which is why I have not wiped yet. I figure if I crash and burn this OS no big deal but I want to have it dialed in before a new OS gets laid down.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scott:
The stuff about the GPS?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scott:
Oh, It up... IM going to bed... I am dead to the world right now...

But being so OCD I cant stand to know that a patch is needed to make my ROM work right! Ughhhh That, my friend, is OCD at a level you cannot understand!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Evocm7:
That's a beast you have there. .. I'm jealous. I should not have bought an fx8350. I'm happy with it but Intel on my next build for sure now that there prices are competitive.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scott:
As I said and you all know, this is to fix the GPS issue.

Other than that pretty much the same, happened to find 3 app updates since last ROM so that was a nice touch.

Dirty or clean, its your call... Clean is always the recommended choice of champion ROM flashers!

And with that being said...

IM outta here!

Oh dont worry, I am going!

Oh and one last thing....

You want to make this ROM fly, like insanely fast???

Use Nova Launcher...

I used to be hardcore Touchwiz Launcher...

BUT DAMN! Nova removes every single bit of Lag on this thing. Its just down right SICK!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Evocm7:
Don't tempt me. I'm already going to regret flashing this late, let alone playing with nova. Recovery is calling my name. Says there is a new version of CR on my sd. I shall return....

The TWRP lock up problems seem to be isolated to the latest release. The image for 2.5.0.2 is posted somewhere in the thread. I've been burned enough by bad recovery releases I always wait, lol.

Supposedly we will get 4ext someday.

I somehow had the feeling that you weren't going to be going to bed until 1.2 was uploaded :laugh:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Evocm7:
The only thing I've noticed so far is that I have no info on screen on time. It appears in graph as it being off the whole time. Otherwise very snappy. Probably because I left the kernel stock this time

My GS4 came pre-loaded with a stalker app, it's quite the rage ... but no, really .. we were talking on this thread a couple days ago about Sammy storage (specifically 64gb Class 10 mSD's).

Good call on waiting to figure out the voltages first ... despite their claims to the contrary, Windows 8 does NOT recover well from serious crash & burns (or at least that's what I've found out so far..)

+1000 on the ASUS MB + 840 Pro SSD .. easily the fastest, glitch free setup I've ever used.

Will be flashing 1.2 tonight, I'll be coming directly from 1.0 (skipped 1.1) so I will let you know how the tweaks are running on my end!

---------- Post added at 03:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:48 AM ----------

Thanks for the info ... you're absolutely right about the whole waiting/being burned thing .. I'm not quite sure why I jumped head first into a newly released recovery. Good to know it isn't just me!

Back to DEODEX?

I'm a little confused. I actually liked the idea of going odex. But there's no 1.2 version? Have we decided doesn't make a difference (I didn't see one, but it's hard to tell). Just asking before I go off and flash again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
Thanks for all your time 2thumbs for looking out for your work -Scott.

What's the best way to go to CWM?

Been using nova since day one. It does work very well.

Once again.

U da man

Oh if you need me to set that new rig up while you get the much need sleep. Let me know..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 0reo:
Sorry if this question isn't directly applicable to this rom but since you mentioned the NSA thing and since you're a good person to ask:

Is there any way to make an app or a rom that will further encrypt data and conversations to be resistant to 3rd party interception? I mean, in the "black helicopter" community people worry about .gov surreptitiously turning on the mic and camera of any phone to surveil. I haven't personally looked at the source code running my phone so hell if I know but I am curious what might be there. What say you, Scott?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
1.2 was released while I was sleeping. Of course now I can't flash until I get home. I hope this new deodexed version runs as fast and smooth as the odex version did!

Maybe someone whose updated already can post if they are going from 1.1 odex to 1.2 deodex and let everyone know how the speeds are!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scorp123:
Just checking in. Dirty flashed 1.2 after wiping dalvik, cache, and system. Gps now confirmed working again. Everything else seems fine just as it was on 1.1.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
Is it still as fast and smooth as the odexed version?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scorp123:
From what I can tell so far yes. It seems the exact same, except gps actually works now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
So happy that our dedicated developer has ocd and got 1.2 uploaded before nap time.

1.2 is as fast and is as smooth as 1.1.

I did another clean wipe and install (sigh...) and everything, including the elusive gps, is working perfectly.

I am not smart enough to understand what the differences are between odex and de odex, but I'll take everyones word for it that odex is better and wait for an updated odex version.

In the meantime, it looks like 1.2 is a winner.

Last night, with the gps issues, seems like a long, strange, distant memory

Thanks again

BTW: I have had no issues with twrp. I think maybe it's because I stayed on 2.5.0.2 and didn't update to .3

Also, I am a longtime nova user and it is wonderful on this rom. I actually go into phone settings and turn off all animations, which seems to make everything move instantly and then set nova settings to speed of light fast.

I've tried Apex and Next launchers and Nova is just better
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheMavic:
Just flashed 1.2 dirty, wiping the same things as Scorp and am getting same results. It's beautiful.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hlxanthus:
The deodex vs odex debate is kinda hard to tackle. Inside play store apps is a file called classes.dex. Well when those install it then pulls that dex file out and installs it else where (I believe in the dalvik cache). Think of it kinda like cookies on your web browser.

Your stock factory is odexed. That means it is optized and already has that dex file extracted to run quicker. That extracted dex file is your odex file. If you peak into a file zip that is deodexed you will see a bunch of apk and jar files. These all have a classes.dex file that must be extracted and installed in I believe dalvik cache.

Now within an odexed ROM you will see an apk and an accociated odex file. For example; SystemUI.apk and SystemUI.odex. Since the dex file already extracted it won't be installed in dalvik and the system can theoretically save resources pulling back and forth between the system and data partition.

The biggest difference you will notice is boot times will be faster on odex, expecially from a clean install or after a cache/dalvik cache wipe.

The flip side of this debate is that when you deodex a system file (return a odex into a classes.dex within the API) it makes it much easier to mod and tweak and customize. Framework apk and jars that are odexed must have proper boot class paths or you boot loop for example. So a deodexed ROM save the dev a step in his work.

Also zipaligning (basically present optimizing how a ROM boots) a ROM helps mediate the differences between odex and deodex.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Craigerz:
That's a great question IMO...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
Going to do a clean flash when I get home of 1.2. Very excited!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tCizler:
Here's my understanding of it....

Let's say your final goal is to have a picture of a rainbow. When the user requests the image of a rainbow, an odexed system goes out and locates the image of the rainbow and bam there it is instantly.

A deodexed system instead has 7 images, one for red, one for orange, one for yellow, green,blue,indigo,and violet. When the user requests the image of the rainbow, the system says, ok first let's find the red arch, then let's find the orange arch, then yellow, green, blue, indigo, and then violet. And then, oh yeah, let's put them all back together so the final product is a rainbow.

That's my basic understanding of it. You can see how it would faster and more efficient to have odex just searching one image/file, rather than deodex searching many images/files and merging them.

The main difference is that with odex, when you call upon the rainbow, you get the rainbow as is.

But with deodex, you can call upon only some of the images, so you could have a rainbow but leave out the green arch and have a totally different image. Or you could even modify some of the individual files so that the rainbow is totally different colors or lengths, or shapes, or sizes, et cetera. The possibilities are endless, it makes things infinitely easier to modify, but then makes them less efficient.

Might have been a little long winded, but i hope it helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
I have yet to install 1.2 but Imo the only difference you're going to see between odex and deodexed is initial boot times, coming from a fresh install or a wipe of dalvik.

Odex files are primarily stored in dalvik cache, but with a deodexed rom the cache builds up over time of using the applications.

Now, once everything is up and running and you decide to wipe dalvik for whatever reason, you'll notice the boot time is longer as it has to cache your applications on startup.

I'll install the odex version when it comes out, but the performance difference especially on this phone, is unnoticeable between the two. I'll post a review later and compare to a odex phone side by side.

Backing stuff up to flash 1.2 now. Will report back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Marine6680:
Welp... time to test 1.2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blulite:
adb as root?

What am I doing wrong? When I adb "command" I don't come in as SU. I can "su" to root, but I don't come in as root by default. Is this something with the ROM, or is there a setup item that I need to be aware of.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jonno95:
for me 1.2 feels smoother than 1.1. I did a clean install. GPS works great as well as everything else i've tried.

One question i have is: When i try to use a custom icon in Nova, it doesn't work. I don't think it works on any touchwiz rom. Does anyone have a fix for that? tia
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jredecop:
Just to confirm 6 GB of other is normal with this rom? Think someone else commented on this.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Coderedpl:
Clean flashed 1.2. No issues with GPS.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scott:
Oh really? Interesting! Im good with CWM now though.

No that OCD kicked in pretty hard come 2 or 3 in the AM!

MIne shows screen time... BUt I also got a GPS lock this time... So with that said...

Does anyone else have an issue with Screen time...

Oh thats right... Yeah, this thing is QUICK! I got it clocked stable at 4.8 right now. Thats about where my 3770k topped off. I notice minor gains here and there.

You have this MoBo or just Asus in general? I only run Asus.

I Was too tired man... I just wanted to get that god forsaken GPS bug fixed. I will do Odex on the next build. For now you can odex it yourself. Go over to themikmik.com and look up a post a ver smart dude named tommytomatoe. He wrote an odex script. ITs the same one I use in the ROM.

YEs, I like CWM better now. I am using the official touch version. Its more stable and works a lot faster then TWRP. And I am not bash twrp at all. I donate a fair donation on every device release or major upgrade. I would really like to have twrp back on my phone but for now this will have to do.

To a degree your voice is already encrypted and decrypted, so your next door neighboor cant listen but...

To do it so the carriers cant listen would require a different type of encryption. It would have to be installed on both phones as well.

Yes, it could be done. But I am more than sure that with any published encryption methods the government already has the key to them.

Actually I think its quicker because of the file that I fixed.

Good deal!

What GPS issue :silly:

Thank you!

Its good! Not broken good! And that file I sent you will work on this because I reverted the method of Notification removal.

No, I dont know why it does that. I just type su. All is well.

Not sure on the Nova issue.

Well then, theres your answer, lol

Damn that was some good sleep!

[2013.05.24][ROOT] adbd Insecure v1.30
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scott:
I saved this for a separate post...

You guys are both some what correct. But I would like to add some points that are missing to make it more correct...

Here are my thoughts...

1. Odex is more efficient when it comes to Dalvik cache because the files STAY on system instead of going into user space.

2. With the file being pre-extracted.... The APK, which is what gets loaded into memory, is SMALLER hence I feel you will get slightly better memory management.

3. With smaller files you get faster load times giving an all around smoother experience.

4. And of course pure conjecture... YOu could theorize that because the system is doing less work to load and decompress the APK's you could save battery. Thats just something I theorize on and the amount would prolly not be measureable but its something to ponder...

Just wanted to add those points.

It's a nova issue some people have, when selecting an icon from the gallery it refuses to set. If you use the betas it isnt a problem.

If you're referring to the appdrawer icon, then I would suggest removing it. Then in a blank space, long press create new nova actions, app drawer, change the icon and drag to the dock.

Maybe a COMPLETELY gutted ROM all tweaked out with extra fun goodies?

Also, I have been reading and came across some devs who are able to keep us booting official somehow while on custom Roms, and chance for CRom to be able to do that?

I use Crom on my tablet (tf700t) but maybe it was the Dev who took over for Scott that added those goodies...

CRom did wonders for my tablet and I figured with the OG Dev on board for the S4, he could really do some magic.

I mean, were all here on XDA with rooted, unlocked, modded up 700 dollar cell phones. I think most would enjoy having one of the best ROM devs "pimping the best ROM the f out" on a developer level with things the average user, such as myself, cannot do.

Hey Scott, Great ROM. I am usually a fan of CM but decided to go TouchWiz for now. I love what you have done here and appreciate your work and your focus on stability. Sometimes features are great but when they compromise how well your phone runs they become insignificant.

Just wondering if you were planning on adding the removal of Wifi notification to CleanRom? I like to leave wifi on for location based apps/wigits when I'm indoors but hate to keep seeing that damn ?WIFI BS.
