[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Nova launcher now...this is where you lose my interest in this rom. :( I like the aosp launcher. I don't need those extra features.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brock1909:
Losing interest in a great rom over the launcher... Learn to push an app if it bothers you that much. He's doing one hell of a job on this rom, don't piss and moan over petty things.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Demiurge7:
Disagree. Nova runs as smooth as any launcher (more so IMO than any comparable others) There are other launcher options you can try, or it would only take a min to set it to be nearly identical to the stock launcher.

Who doesn't like more features anyway? Lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Don't get me wrong, I definitely appreciate the work he's put into this. It's absolutely brilliant so far, except nova launcher. It's something that should definitely be optional as you can download it directly from the market. I do know how to push apps, but I don't want to push it and have to restore my settings every time there's a rom update. Simply put, if I wanted Nova Launcher I'd be using it already. I was attracted to the rom largely because it features the AOSP launcher without any modifications.

I like things simple. It doesn't seem as smooth to me as the AOSP launcher....this opinion is gathered from my time spent with the Galaxy Nexus. I tried the "extra features" and found I didn't use them. I like it just how it ships...

Again, I do love the work put into this, and he seems to value opinions so I figured I'd share mine. I don't see why something that is easily optional should be pushed in the base of the rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Well.. I am sorry you do not like nova launcher. I can easily make a zip that will remove nova and install the aosp one. You can just flash it after the ROM.

I use nova launcher because I like the gestures and ability to quickly restore my desktop as I flash my phone constantly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gt5oh:
Whats the solution to fix smart stay?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Demiurge7:
Understandable. However, I trust the Devs decision to include it over the stock aosp launcher (based on opinions and how his rom jives), and prefer nova over the latter. Have u messed around with Nova? Try changing the scroll and transition speeds in 'look and feel' to "fast", change scroll animation to none, etc. I would be surprised if it did not perform at or better than the aosp launcher after such changes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spearoid:
Ditto on both of these things. If one takes the time to define gestures on icons and in general Nova cannot be beat. I use one home screen, and only have 5 icons on the screen yet can launch about 10x that many functions. And restoring after flashing is a breeze and my custom icons are restored flawlessly.

I'm still trying to figure out the answer to this question... That is one of the only TW features I use, and I have not been able to get it to work since updating to 1.1.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
So is the new update officially v1.2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spearoid:
Have you flashed the stock kernel? That was offered as a recommended solution. The link to the stock kernel is in this thread a few times.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bjbinc:
Lovin the update :) One question...where can I access the new battery mods? I like to make all my status bar items white on transparent and had no problem modding the SystemUI in the last build, but I can't seem to find the new 1% batteries. Can ya help a brother out ;)

EDIT: NVM I FOUND IT LIKE 3.5 MIN AFTER I POSTED THIS
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Demiurge7:
I can confirm smart stay works on new update. I am using stock kernel located on previous post.

Loving the update through and through. Flashed stock kernel and dialer fix imediately after rom without issue. Another donation in order, nice work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spearoid:
I actually haven't installed the update yet. :)

Still rocking 1.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bjbinc:
sorry...i didn't mean to quote you :eek:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SmokeyMon:
+1

Afraid to leave this bad boy...glad I'm not the only one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GRICKMAAAZ:
posted in wrong thread sorry.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] opti2k:
Thanks Nitro!

Just one question, anyway to make a flashable zip with the samsung 4x4 calendar widget to work on 1.1?

Much Thanks,
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spearoid:
Haha, I wondered about that. :D

Yeah, there's something reassuring about seeing the update in the OP and in the thread title. :)

I'm holding out hope Nitro gets the AOSP dialer/phone/contacts fully working
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Demiurge7:
Is there a way to change lock screen wallpaper? I remember switching to TW to change it, then defaulting to Nova (perhaps on hyper). But there is only Nova on this... Not sure if I am missing a setting somewhere to do this. Thanks

Think your in the wrong spot broham
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Guyinlaca:
I flashed the stock kernel in ODIN and it broke Wi-Fi; had to reflash the ROM with Ktoonez to get Wi-Fi back. Has this happened to anyone else? Is there another kernel that's as stable as stock to try?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bsimpson1:
I reported the same thing a long number of posts back. You need a flashable zip with the right kernel modules.

Edit: here it is. It should fix it.

Thanks to SmokeyMon for posting it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bajasur:
Im running faux without an issue
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] doctordroid:
love this ROM so far. Thank you so much!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Guyinlaca:
Thanks! That fixed it. With this ROM being great and Nitro's Google Edition ROM getting new features, I may have some tough choices ahead.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jayrod76:
Sorry Nitro..had to replace one of your batteries with one of mine :D

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igotgame:
I used Eclipse ROM on my GNex. I will wait a little bit for some of the bugs to be worked out, but I'm definitely watching this ROM closely.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bjbinc:
I can restore my complete setup in about 10-15 min using titanium/nova...so I pretty much flash whatever strikes my fancy :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] whiteout7942:
Has the new version been released or is it just for testers?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] krayzee:
Just install it. There's a link a few pages back. Those who are waiting.... Go get it now. Its awesome. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bsimpson1:
He did post a new build a few pages back but it doesn't sound like he's

intended for it to serve as a finished product
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
Nice theming ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jayrod76:
Haha..yeah,my restoring takes no time, but since I am rather suckish at xposed module making or any other form of "easy" theming, it takes a little longer to apply what things I have themed....but it is worth it when I see what changes are made...for me anyway. My friends and GF can give a rats less :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
What bugs? Dialer? There is a themed tw dialer that works flawless.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jayrod76:
Thanks

It's been a work in progress since my last stint on Blur..and I'm lucky that a lot of it is transferring rather easy...just a few AOSP tricks and a couple of TW tricks I picked up

Still have one thing that I can't figure out and It's driving me NUTS!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bjbinc:
Yeah, judging from your screenshot...that could take awhile lol...I just tweak the status bar to make it transparent with white clock and icons. Only takes a few.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lahma69:
Just wanted to say that there is no competition for this rom. Since I flashed 1.0, I have never looked back. It does exactly what I needed: TW features with AOSP look. I can't tell you HOW MUCH I hated Samsung's cartoonish looking UI. Time for a donation for sure... Good work bro.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
I've been searching the thread and can't seem to find that themed tw dialer. Does anyone have the link?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jayrod76:
I'm odd...I am not a big fan of transparent bars! I spent months trying to get a themed bar or at least a hex change on both the RAZR and Bionic JB releases! (Dang MOTO..and my lack of understanding Smali!) I like having an actual PNG up there...can't explain why! Hahahaha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bjbinc:
I can't believe this is TW...and its SMOOOOTH too!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
It is in the OP. Under known bugs he has a link.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ainvar:
Very nice and very clean.

I thought the default theme that Nitro has done on this ROM was great, your theme you are working on is placed up there with his.

I have not updated to the latest one from Nitro that he posted a few pages back, but might do that as I wait on SCCM to import drivers tomorrow at work unless he is making an updated official one. Have not seen anything mentioned on the thread.

Again kudos to you sir.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
I just flashed this ROM and it looks great just 2 small issues. 1) I can't setup my outlook account, it keeps saying failed to open or invalid user name/password 2) no S memo, very sad.

Other than that its awesome!!!

Never mind I found keep to replace Smemo :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] whiteout7942:
The post/link must have been taken down because I can't seem to find it anywhere :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
How do I change the wallpaper for the lock screen
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Slighty confused.. I just flashed the latest update here: http://d-h.st/yDU

Now do I still have to flash the patch under the bugs section in the OP? I understand that I should not ignore calls to be safe as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
Here is something for you guys to play with. It still has the AOSP contacts/dialer so do not reject any calls with it.

I forgot to put the TW dialer in it and it takes forever to upload builds.

http://d-h.st/yDU

Revamped status bar, battery options, new settings app, removed Samsung junk, AOSP email, updated some inverted gapps, removed am/pm.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
I am using my work out look email fine. Use exchange and you must know your paths. For me I have to out owa. In front of company and owa. On the path. But it works you just need to set it up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
I don't have a work email its just my normal email. I don't really know what the paths are or how to find them. On other ROMs I just enter my email and password and boom its done
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Guyinlaca:
I've been searching all over and have been unable to find the "MusicPlayerWT" file. Given that the TW Roms take hours to download, does anyone have the apk files they could post?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
If you pull the email.apk from build 1.1 you will be fine then. 1.2.1 is aosp email 1.1 is tw and you can swap them out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
How can I pull the email.apk I never had 1.1 I just started using this ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
If I pull it for you do you know how to change system apps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mademan420:
http://db.tt/2eoglU4y
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
Here is from 1.1 email.apk http://db.tt/1jLKjoYX will need to replace the system/app/email.apk and fix permissions
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
Honesty not really. But if you could explain it in a pm that would be awesome bc not having exchange sucks bc right now I'm using the outlook app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
Go to system/apps find the email.apk and rename it to email.apk.bak or erase it. But removing the .bak will bring it back it you want. After you rename or remove the apk I use root explorer to move the app to system app. Then long press it and hit permissions and make it read rw-r-r looks like this. Then reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
Is this done in recovery?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
No manually with root explorer. If you flash 1.1 it uses the tw email already.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gt5oh:
For everyone just getting to this thread

Here is the latest update to the Rom ( Eclipse-S4TW-v1.2.1-072013.zip ) - http://d-h.st/yDU

Here is the Stock S4 Kernel - http://d-h.st/hPK

(Included Kernel breaks dual camera mode and Smart Stay)

Here is the AOSP Style contacts/dialer with working call rejection - http://d-h.st/qH7

Note: Recommended to go into settings->apps and clear data on contacts and contacts storage after flashing.

Flash these all in recovery after a full wipe and you should be up and running with little to no bugs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IamPro:
You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] EvoRocker:
Good looking out!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] doctordroid:
So this is the latest version ? I just loaded 1.1 last night do I have to wipe or can I just flash it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] whiteout7942:
When downloading the update through Dev-Host it took me a little over two hours on a high speed connection. If it is slow for you also, I have made two mirrors for people to use.

Mirror 1 (Dropbox) http://bit.ly/12YjQhS

Mirror 2 (Mega) http://bit.ly/16UvXKn
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
I'm downloading now and about to flash.

I just finished my weekend with aosp.

I understand the included kernel creates some issues (dual camera).

I'll start off with the stock kernel that's recommended, but is there another kernel that people are having success with where everything works. I'm much more interested in performance over battery life.

I plug in frequently and have spare batteries.

Thanks in advance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
OP updated with the build from yesterday along with a mirror for downloads.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
I have been using Faux's kernel all weekend and it has been treating me good

Does anyone know if the mod to hold back to kill app will work??

I go to the dialer and it locks up and says "Unfortunately CONTACTS has stopped working". Cannot place phone calls
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aw091486:
Eagerly awaiting the non-inverted apps. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
Did you try clearing data on contact app? I have had zero issues with dialer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jayrod76:
I have had zero issues with anything so far..but I've only had a few calls, played some music via play music with DSP manager going, a few texts using handscent..oh and tapatalk and hangouts. But then again its only been up for about 3 hours.

Every time I go into settings I get a message saying I need to reboot because something is trying to access my phone.. And how do you change the cLock widget to turn off metric? Its annoying.

Delete the widget and add it back.. I will be placing a menu to access its settings in the next build.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chuckleb0ne:
Haven't tried fixing permissions. I will try in just a sec.

I think you have to freeze (or maybe even delete) SEAndroid and/or SamsungKNOX.

Battery MOD?

So is it possible to get a battery mod like the circle with percentage in the center? I attempted to flash the mod from this other thread, and it did not cause an error... but it remained unchanged.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2035901

Also, does anyone know if there's a way to mod a "hold back to kill" type feature?

Great ROM by the way, thank you for your work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
More mods will be coming. This is an initial release. Do not flash mods from other devices. Surprised you did not end up with SystemUI force closing on you. There is a chance you flashed something to the wrong partition since that mod is for a Gnex.

I believe there is a long press menu to kill mod but I have not implemented anything yet. Holding back activated multi-window if it is enabled in settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] templton:
I remember this from the old bionic days, always a great day how's the battery life running for everyone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] canaanp:
OK, I realize that.. and it makes sense. I just thought since it was 4.2.2 and I'm an idiot, the universe might accommodate me this once. Oh well. I said hold back to kill by habit, cause of the CM7 days. Thanks again for the ROM :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
It's been running great thanks!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
I've flashed the 1.2.1 yesterday before you posted this, so can I just start with flashing the kernel and so forth
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] krayzee:
IMO kernels can cause more issues than they do good. There are some great ones around dont get me wrong, but the performance on this is outstanding and battery life is great too. I would suggest you flash the stock kernel and give it a try.

Has anyone tried jbeitel's status bars mods on the new version of the ROM? They worked on CR but not on Hyperdrive. All of them are TW based so I'm no smart enough to know why there is a difference. TIA
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shawnten:
do i need to do all of the fixes posted if i am installing the newest update 1.2.1?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
Yes
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cbmggm:
Hey Nitro,

I've been a follower and supporter of your Roms since the Bionic days. My GNex also ran awesome on Eclipse. I have a quick question; For the most part I can do without most of the bloat that TW has except for one system app. I've come to love the TW calendar. Does your build include this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
No it does not. I might theme it in the future but I will probably just make an add on package for it sometime this week.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
To flash the stock kernal I flash it in recovery, wipe cache and delvick, then fix permissions right.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] WizeGuyDezignz:
Correct. I don't always fix permissions and it still works fine, but it won't hurt.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Demiurge7:
Settings -> display-> wallpaper -> lockscreen. Not sure how I missed that either. Perhaps different location than previous build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ThorSkaagi:
Is anyone else's battery not centered with the signal bars? I heard Nitro was working on a fix. I know it's petty, but that's the one thing keeping me from going back to this fantastic ROM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jayracer7474:
There is never a reason to fix permissions in recovery, only fix permissions after manually pushing an app using a file explorer to rw-r-r
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] opti2k:
Anyone know if i can just pull seccalendar.apk from a tw build and put it in 1.2.1?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cbmggm:
Thanks so much for the quick response. An add-on package would suffice perfectly!

Small text error

Hey nitro just reporting a glitch.... in favorites the text is black on black... so I can't see it. no biggie for now since I have photos of my favorite favorite contacts... but for the ones I don't I can't see who they are... is there a fix I can do or just wait patiently.

Great ROM by the way!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
Wait for Nitro to fix.

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:29 PM ----------

It would have to be from an eclipse build as Nitro signs all his system apps. Nitro did say he would put the TW calendar as an add on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] philsfan:
is there any way to get the "settings" button back on the status bar/pull down??

i love the new theming. but it seems TW doesn't have a "settings" quick settings icon so it makes going to system settings a pain (have to look thru app drawer or create shortcut or some other means).

i'm nit picking bc this rom is awesome. THANK YOU!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] whiteout7942:
I'm not really digging the spacing between notifications. Other then that this ROM is amazing!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
I would love to see this feature as an add on as well!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] philsfan:
can anyone send me a link to version 1.1 please? personal preference but i liked that slightly better and idiot me didn't make a backup (tisk, tisk)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
PM sent
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
Should I wipe cache and delvick first before flashing the kernel or after, or does it matter
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
-Wipe cache

-wipe dalvik cache

-flash kernel

-reboot

-Enjoy
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] philsfan:
Thank you Travis!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
anyone else besides nitro using the faux kernel with success?

I've downloaded both the m & u version 007 and plan on flashing one or the other a little later.

I want to give stock a fair shot of winning me over.

I've used kt or chronic on all of my other roms and have yet to try faux.

Last question: I think I saw recommended settings for faux somewhere (I believe I may actually have it printed at home) so are these recommended too or are the stock settings good enough.

Thanks in advance.

By the way, I've been on this rom for about 2 hours now and I'm liking it!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] buckmarble:
I'm going to revisit the smart stay issue. First this is my order of flashing. ROM, dialer patch, my Elite Kernel. Once booted up I had all the eye sensor stuff turned of except for smart stay. The eye icon turned bright as it should when it recognized movement just before screen timed out. Just for comparison I flashed the stock kernel posted in this thread and got identical behavior. Dual camera mode also works fine on my kernel.

On a side note did anyone get a market restore?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
Version 6 seems to be a little more stable on Verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
Thanks, I was going to flash 7.

Do you use m or u and do you change the settings?

thanks in advance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitroglycerine33:
I just use m. I think our phones are clocked high enough as it is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
Lol are you serious? The status bar is keeping you from running this ROM lol. Wow speechless. I used Nottach to move clock to center no issues here.
