yes sir :good:

the ota update sammy decided to aid the blind i think .. the icons r HUGE... and to me just goes against that clean aosp look.. OTA sammy tried to pull an apple and block users on anything but a i9505g from using the rom, by pulling security from the baseband .. figures copy apple right :) ... but other than that it was an odd update to say the least

Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
you could just .. but if coming from an aosp rom then thats fine just restore data under advanced restore.. now if ur coming from a tw i would avoid it.. but im not a 100 percent on that but that just how i look at it :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
could be a playstore issue ... how ur connection?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] igotroot:
LMAO woooooow, why I gotta be blind??? LOL Hey I like the icon sizes :) Really, I do.

With that being said, if there really isnt any issues at all with the Odin leak, why not continue to use it as opposed to the OTA?

Just saying. I've read so many people having issues with he OTA.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Will822:
Is it possible to use 2.0.1 without KT's kernel? Only reason I ask is I've tried KT's kernels in the past and while it supports exFAT SD cards, Poweramp doesn't play well with it. When I was running 1.3.9 with the stock kernel, Poweramp worked fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] obriane217:
Man that sucks trying new ways to block you is never a good sign. Really open source isn't it...

But I think I kinda like the new icon look :victory:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
sorry had to :p

you would have to use faux kernel from 2.0 ...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ImDonly1:
Didn't work.

Edit:

I think I fixed it. I deleted the apps from the my apps screen in google play. Then did the above.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Will822:
Where can I get faux kernel from 2.0?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
ya... i posted about how sammy would do this.. awhile back think it was in my mdob thread.. sammy went for the old baseband trick .. it will only get worse from here.. which is sad .. and i agree, talked to faux about this same problem.. remember when android first came out and they pushed love for devs and how open source it was and how iphone was evil ? what happened ?

just for kicks watch this everyone

How's the battery life for those who have tried this for a couple days? The last time I tried a 4.3 rom was 3 or 4 days ago and my battery took a huge hit.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] spectrumfox:
Battery life with 4.3 GE 2.01 (or 2.00 w/ latest KT TW kernel) gets fantastic battery life.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] treoreloaded:
so far this rom is rock solid for me. done restoring all my apps via playstore, about 62 apps with no freezes using my LTE connection. wifi stays connected,bluetooth works calls are clear and my sd card reads and writes as it should. my only observation is my antutu benchmark went down from 24458 to 21047. coming from stock att. but still rom is snappy and butttery smooth. thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] spectrumfox:
Anyone know of a good sound utility for GE that allows you alter the volumes without having to go into Settings?

Something that either goes on the notification/pulldown menu, a widget, or something that attaches itself to the standard volume control when you press Vol Up or Vol Down.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] gravedigger76:
Was really hoping that OTA would fix dock mode audio to go out through the dock. It didn't. When phone is docked toast message comes up saying drivemode activated when undocked it says deactivated but sound still does not route through USB audio. :((((

Anyone?

I tried apps like ibolt (dock manufacture actually) others still no go.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] oak:
All In One Toolbox has a very good addon/widget for controlling sound.

iB4STiD,

I really love 4.3 but hate the native email (4 year old bugs still not fixed) and native calendar app. I have a feeling you are going to say no but can you use the native Samsung email and calendar app with 4.3?

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mrnovanova:
I'm on 2.01 and I gotta say its good but no better perhaps equal but not better by any means. I'm not a big fan of kernel tinkering (that's when bad things happen). I'll stay on 2.01 tonight. And I'll restore 1.39 tomorrow. To compare.

Few questions. I've read in previous versions of GE roms Samsung left the TW framework there. I really like the music player on stock TW. I purchased poweramp and use it when I'm on AOKP but I don't like it. So is it possible to use stock music with this 4.3 ROM?

One more - to those who stream music to their cars, does 4.3 finally shows music data on the car radio? Like artist and song title?

Don't know about any TW frameworks being there in the 4.3 official.

I don't stream personally, but i know that 4.3 brings the support for that kind of things. =)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] spectrumfox:
There isn't any TW framework in 4.3 official, but this is the Google Edition and it comes with some TW framework built in.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] geoldr:

Tried the download on two devices. Still the same problem. On the 4th you had a third battery mod. Then mod 2 I downloaded did not have the circle shown in the screen shot. I'm assuming that the new mod 2 is now the circle mod as shown. If someone has the circle mod for 4.3 and can share I would appreciate.

Ok so the rom runs perfectly I'm very happy with it so far. I'm about to go biking and use a tracker on it and see how the gps/data handles everything.

One thing I noticed. With the real google editions of the S4 the internal memory has 12.1 GB instead of the 9.61 GB of available space. With this rom we're still reduced to 9.61 GB.

Is there anything I did wrong? Or should we format the internal before installing this rom?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] WMguy:
As far as I know, there's nothing you did wrong and there's not a way around it (yet).

Anyone know if this is the same as the other 4.2.2 GE rom in this forum? I'm running it without any bugs but I like this developer and thread so I'd like to go for it unless it would be identical. If so, could I dirty flash over it?

Nice to see a thread where the dev isn't yelling at everyone and everybody helps one another. Like XDA used to be a long time ago. :good:

After backing up, reformatting from exFAT to FAT32 using the tool above, and copying all the data back(took all night), I can confirm that everything is working now on 4.3 ver 2.0.1...

I guess in my case, the KT Kernel didn't like the exFAT partition on the Sandisk Class 10 64GB MicroSD cards as everything works flawless - PowerAMP see's all my folders and my computer recognizes the phone through USB...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mrnovanova:
Yes it is the tw framework but that doesn't mean you can use two apps there are many more layers of software needed to make it happen

And Yes 4.3 does have avcrp so you will be able to see metadata while streaming music via Bluetooth

followed all steps.

wiped. installed rom 4.3, installed ktoonez fix aosp 4.3, clear delvik/cache, fix permissions "did not work" (said could not be done after a factory reset)

Do both of you use TWR for Recovery?

Try switching to a CWM based recovery and see if that helps.

Also, make sure in TWR you are not formating system (where you have to type in 'yes')
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] spacr:
I am using TWRP although I had the same problem using CWM. I do format system, why would that be a problem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] gravedigger76:
TWR causes an issue with ROM's when you format system.

It's been discussed a number of times in this thread and in TWR thread.

Odin back to MDL re-root and re-install recovery. if you try CWM base it'll make life easier for you. if you want to stick with TWR do not format system (where you type in 'yes")

factory reset

clear cache

clear davlik

*Edit:Works great now! You can not believe how long I've been seeking a fix.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Shawnkanan:
So quick question, every time you update this ROM we can't just clear cache and flash the update? We have to revert to stock MDL and the flash? I just flashed 2.0 and now there is 2.01, what's the difference? And can we flash the updates without going and doing that full process? Seems a bit crazy if we are already on Kangabean Running 4.3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] gravedigger76:
You don't have to ODIN back, but it is recommended by OP to factory reset, delete cache, delete davlik cache, then flash ROM.

You are always free to follow or NOT follow OP's recommendation to install the ROM. You are also free not to install the ROM, it's all your choice.

OP is simply stating that if you follow his recommended path, you will have no issues running this ROM.

If you don't follow his recommended path, you are on your own. :good::good:

I think it's as simple as 'take it or leave it' type of deal.

I'm going to quote a post by [MENTION=4125648]WoodburyMan[/MENTION] that i think is a great analogy and is a perfect quote on why sometimes wiping fully is a good idea:good:

Trying to turn it into Windows terms...

Basically say you have a running Windows installation with programs and such configured. Then you delete your Windows directory. Then you restore it with a fresh clean copy of the Windows directory from a WIM image of a brand new fresh clean install. Most functions may work, but you're going to run into problems because file versions and such registered in the registry may not match files that are now in the Windows directory and such due to programs or windows updates modifying them, and functions aren't running as expected. It may boot but things may not be running right. It's not a exact comparison but it gets you an idea.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Stagnation1:
I just went through this same exact thing. You'll have to Odin back to stock, reroot, and then flash your ROM.

DO NOT use the format system option in TWRP; It messes up your partitions or some such. Just do a factory reset, wipe the caches, and you should be golden.

[Edit] Well I see that gravedigger already helped you. Enjoy your functional S4.[/Edit]

quick question on restoring to stock

Sorry for being new at all this. But I installed the kangabean rom and I installed TWRP. IF tomorrow I decide I want to go back to 100% stock for any reason (exactly as if I Just took out of the box) would I just need to flash the AMDL stock firmware with Odin (As if I was removing root)?
