Haha :) I feel the same way my friend. I just got back from a long semester and I'm trying to catch up with all the developments

If u still have the ROM's zip file, u can simply unzip the file and locate System/App then the Settings app and just push it to the system :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] störte:
Yes it is annoying not to be up to date but have so many things running here. Thinking about to leave Europe again.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] norrie2204:
I dont have the zip ... downloading now cheers
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Coming Soon :) :cool:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Not bad ;) stock frequencies, Interactive and fiops

P.s. dont worry the Rom wont be themed ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mr.Yawnie:
Looks good! When can we expect to download the new echoe? :)

And which base is it based on? MI8 or MJ3?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Repulsa:
Hi mate , i cant wait to see your 4.3 rom :D and good luck, and i have a few question about 4.3 that your making :D .How's the bootloader on your next rom?can i downgrade anytime?because i know that samsung doesn't allow you to downgrade to a lower firmware by using a new bootloader if im right :D , Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Piretia:
4.3 hummm....lol... ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
No bootloader :) you keep the boot loader you already have ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] skeamznz:
Great news super dev :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Slash75:
Great, I'm looking forward to this 4.3 ... Thanks

It will be available when about?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] skeamznz:
Please be patient guys our friend [MENTION=4401403]friedrich420[/MENTION] dosent rush Echoe he wants a complete fast and stable ROM for release. It won't be far away. The Echoe standard :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sswagonman:
interesting to see if you guys can make it all work with the old bootloader. good luck [MENTION=4401403]friedrich420[/MENTION]
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] tuckersmission:
Arrrrggggghhhhhhhhh! The suspense, the excitement, the.... Erm... Yeah, can't wait. I love this thread! xxx

[MENTION=4401403]friedrich420[/MENTION]

DUDE! What is this?!

ekoforpointthri? :D

Haha! The excitements! So many questions.. but we should leave this dude for the meantime.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
No bootloader my friend, so you stay with the one you have ;)

And it's based on the latest leak the MJ3 :)

And it should be ready by tonight... People are skipping work all over the world to test this thing ;)

It will have bugs i warn you, but you will have the 1st fully functional 4.3 Rom for the S4 :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gabi11:
[MENTION=4401403]friedrich420[/MENTION], everybody here are waiting for your great cook to be done.

Maybe you should change your name to Heisenberg..... :D

P.S

I hope you understood my joke.

If not- MUST WATCH 'BREAKING BAD' !!!! :D:D:cool::cool:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Im sorry for the "teasers" but im excited :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
I was gonna google it but you helped me out ;)

I dont watch it unfortunately ...

They have recommended it to me many times, but i cant get addicted to a tv series ;) Then what are we gonna do about this addiction??? :p

I prefer Dr. House or Gideon (from Criminal Minds) :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gabi11:
Heisenberg, like you, cooks the best stuff.

The small difference is that he doesn't cook roms. Only crystal meth :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mr.Yawnie:
Close enough.. Drug addicts 'cure' might be crystal meth the same way as flashaholic's cure would be fully cooked roms ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Exactly!! And ill take cooking roms over cooking meth anyday :) That stuff is one of the worst discoveries of the human race.. ive seen so many young people looking like 50 b/c of a few months on meth.... :( It's sad :( Only Nature ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Echoe v4 UPLOAD IN PROGRESS (Takes 4-5 hours)

IM SORRY BUT I CANT WAIT!!!

Lets begin with the changelog:

- Based on the new Android 4.3 leak: I9505XXUEMJ3
- Version: Android 4.3
- Changelist: 1840064
- Build date: Tue, 8 Oct 2013 23:29:05 +0000
- With kt kernel (4.3 TW) (PLEASE SUPPORT THIS INCREDIBLE DEVELOPER HERE) :
[URL="http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2297379"]http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2297379[/URL]
[MENTION=4325945]ktoonsez[/MENTION] is the main reason why we have a 4.3 Echoe!!!
- Removed Samsung Keyboard and SBrowser
- Added AOSP Keyboard
- Added more options to Settings (My Device/ Display and then you'll see 2 additional options)
- The SMS/MMS app is even more modded ;)
- Removed Transparent notification panel, added brightness bar, removed lockscren rotation, removed 4way screen rotation
- ALL THE MODS, TWEAKS and ADDONS from the previous versions [B]except for call recording and 4way reboot[/B] :( Those can easily be implemented using wanam xposed :)[/B][/SIZE]

Bugs: (PLEASE READ THEM OVER AND OVER AGAIN BECAUSE IT WILL SUCK TO BE GETTING THE SAME QUESTIONS OVER AND OVER)

1.

WIFI WORKS!!!

You need to be patient everytime!! When it's turned off it needs 30 seconds to be turned on and find networks (you think its stuck but its not). Also when you turn off wifi or reboot the phone, it forgets the SSID you put for the network so you have to put it again. If you dont turn it off and just change networks then it keeps it in memory. My advice: DONT TURN OFF YOUR WIFI UNLESS YOU HAVE TO!! Again remember: BE PATIENT!! IT WILL WORK EVERYTIME EVEN IF YOU THINK ITS STUCK!!! 30 seconds.... :)

2. In Connections/ More Networks/ Mobile Networks/Network Mode choose GSM. You can choose LTE if you want but unless you are in an area that has non-stop LTE coverage, you will face the following bug: when your screen is off, it will lose the networks and stop mobile data. That wont happen when the screen is on and its really fast. So the solution would be to have the GSM option ticked and that way you still have mobile data even with screen off

3.

Very minor:

The first time you log into play store it takes a while to show your apps... Long press home button and clear and then click again on playstore. Everything will be blazing fast again :)

4. My advice for best performance (and highest benchmarks) would be to use ktweaker app (thats included as default in the ROM) and change governor to interactive and scheduler to fiops

5. Finally, the most dangerous bug is that you WILL GET ADDICTED TO THE 4.3!!!

EVERYTHING ELSE (AND I MEAN EVERYTHING!!!) WORKS IN ECHOE SUPER MODE ;) TB, LED LIGHTS etc etc etc ALL WORK FLAWLESSLY!!! :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] micasbacay:
That's a very good news my friend, Echoe Rom Rocks!!! worth the wait!!! "patiently"
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sswagonman:
gotta ask again to be sure but this does not affect the bootloader? can we revert back to 4.2.2?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] skeamznz:
It's running amazingly 4.3 is flying super smooth. Those minor bugs aren't a worry wifi works great (very fast). You guys are going to love this.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
I went as far back as MGG which is the one with the new bootloader. I cant go further back because i had already odin flashed the new bootloader that came with MGG. If you havent odin flashed stock ROM from MGG and later (i.e. with the new bootloaders) then you can go as far back as you want... If you did what i did then you can only go back to MGG and newer... Its the same like every Echoe Rom :) NO BOOTLOADER NO MODEM

Just "System" and Kernel :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] vivmar:
with new 4.0 i need to flash new 4.3 modem or i can use old modems?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
No need to flash anything stock my friend :) JUST FULL WIPES!!

See my screenshot: My baseband is still MH8 :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Rennrg:
Could you upload Samsung keyboard? or can i copy form 4.2.2 rom samsung keyboard to system folder?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
You can try it but i doubt it will work. Samsung keyboard and sbrowser were removed because they werent fully functional (FC)...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] raulg15:
On the new update Oct 15 , It says I should select GSM. If I select GSM will I still have LTE when available?

Also does this ROM have the multi window mod where I can put all my apps on there?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
No you wont... You need to have LTE on only if you are sure that the area you are in has LTE coverage otherwise you will lose data connection completely... If that happens and you lose data connection completely, it is easily fixable by choosing GSM.. It magically reappears...

About mods my friend, you understand that this is the 1st Rom for the Itnernational I9505 with the 4,3 leak, right? I mean mods like that will have to be tested by the users...

Again, this is a LEAK.... The first functional custom one.... There will be bugs that may be due to the fact that its a leak...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] failax:
Even in the leaked j3 there's the problem with the wifi stuck for 30 seconds?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Im not sure, is there? You mean if you odin flash the stock Leak??

I never did so i wouldnt know... I hope it is like that b/c that means i did the best that could be done with the leak :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] n J o y:
waiting for the v4 SLIM version, great work man :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] KL643:
Don't think so. This morning I've flashed 4.3 Vega (and the new J3 modem in Odin) and wifi is working fine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
ok. I think for the wifi to not have any delays you need to flash stock 1st. However, thats not the purpose of this Rom.. The purpose is to use 4.3 without having to flash anything stock and to come from any Rom you want...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] bknez:
If I flash this would my phone have 0x01 flag?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] störte:
German threads already updated awaiting link :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] oluwaponmile:
I will suggest you flash stock first then. There is no big deal in flashing stock rom before this. Just remember that flashing stock might wipe your internal memory card....so backup internal sdcard first.

Or it might just be that only J3 modem is needed to be flashed to get wifi working as it should.

Cheers
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
DOWNLOAD LINK IN OP BABY!!!

HAPPY FLASHING!! READ INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS AND BUGS FIRST PLEASE!!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
30 seconds man... 30 seconds... But im not asking anyone to flash this rom!!! ;) it will be flashed either way ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] KL643:
Amen to that :)

correct
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Hippoman13:
First view/download for v4, I'm excited to see how 4.3 performs on Touchwiz.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dancer810:
So, i'm still on 4.2.2 MGA...Can i flash this rom(4.3) by CWM, without flashin bootloader\modem by Odin?

1.Full wipe by CWM

2.Install ROM by CWM

3. Reboot :)

?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] KL643:
I've installed 4.3 Vega ROM this morning and wifi was not working. After installing the modem from the original leak, wifi was working fine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] boterkaaseneieren:
Why isn't possible to flash this with stock kernel? Angel and demon's have leak roms with stock kernel inside the zip.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Repulsa:
I was just wondering if someone can flash this rom then flash the original modem or kernel after , just to see if the wifi will be fix? or maybe i might be wrong .. teehee ( im asking this for someone already void their warranty)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Modem yes, Stock kernel will prob not boot..

And your point is ???
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Yes!! Read OP first however...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] boterkaaseneieren:
My point is that if it's possible to use stock kernel in your rom than wifi will be fixed.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Ok my friend thanks! I didnt get it right away.. I had no luck initially but i can try again later...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] boterkaaseneieren:
Just downloaded angel rom. Shall I post here for you there updater script and some other files and you can see how they did it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Yes please
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] boterkaaseneieren:
Files from Angel
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] boterkaaseneieren:
System is double.

Need more?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Is there anyway you could give me the link to the german thread? All i could find was older versions. Does it work without needing to flash anyrhing stock first?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] boterkaaseneieren:
You need to be on leak first. Without new bootloader they no way to run this. There link is showing only v.12 but here is there download folder.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Thank you again!!

Echoe is fully functional if you are already on stock leak... The goal was to create one that is as functional as possible that doesnt require any stock flashing beforehand...

THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR HELP :thumbup:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] valentinrascu:
This rom is for CWM? Wifi audio work??

tapatalked with s4
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] failax:
Friedrich could you try if flashing j3 modem wifi goes correctly?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] valentinrascu:
Haw to install this? No instructions on first page

tapatalked with s4
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] oluwaponmile:
I have tried it and wifi still doesn't behave as it should.

I will try flashing stock before Echoe and report back with my findings

Cheers
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] oluwaponmile:
I have also try that wifi-fix and it doesn't resolve the little issue with wifi.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] KL643:
what is your baseband?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] malamen123:
This ROM will install thr new bootloader? If i update to this ROM then if i want i can downgrade to MGA?

Wow at team echoe nicely done. Very nice indeed. Just that signal and WiFi bug but nothing serious at all. Well done
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Yes of course it is cwm flashable (i recommend philz), for the rest please READ CAREFULLY OP

READ CAREFULLY OP

Theres a section in red letters called "INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS"
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Thank you thank you thank you!!!

Thank you for understanding what was accomplished here!! You seem to be one of the few...

EVERYONE: PLEASE READ OP!!

And also i dare anyone to find a custom rom based on the latest leak that is as functional as mine and doesnt need to flash stock leak (and thus the new bootloader)!!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] oluwaponmile:
Read the OP, flashing this rom will not install a new bootloader.

You can always downgrade to MGA if you have not previously locked your bootloader.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Thats supposed to fix roms that have NO WIFI....

Thank you for the accurate words you used... Imagine if i didnt write in huge letters the bugs in 1st post....

No, it will NOT install ANY bootloader!!

I will not respond to more of the same questions... Ive answered some of these 6-7 times already...

All i expect from the users who think this is an accomlishment (again, please find me another custom rom with the MJ3 leak that's as functional as Echoe 4 without bootloaders or any knox crap...) is to support us....

I skipped work (yeah, i did call sick- very irresponsible) because i didnt sleep at all last night. So excited that i have managed to beat this thing (i wont tell you how, but if you knew you would be blown away....), and yet i dont see too much appreciation....

It's ok....

Talk about demotivation...

We are probably talking 48 +hours non-stop work to the expense of my real job, to have very little appreciation...

It's ok, IM ENJOYING MY ECHOE V4!!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] vicky706:
Wuaw.... very very good job sir....

Wuaw.... Sorry for me OT, but i must say that !
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
It was already stated in OP... I wouldnt release something unless i tried everything!!!

You think you guys were the 1st ones to think about the modem thing?? Or the stock kernel?? Or that it needs the 4.3 you always get stuck bootloader to be fully fixed? 30 seconds.... 30 seconds...

So yeah, none of them were helpful and im not being offended because nobody has said something bad about me... I express disappointment, not offense...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
ok ill make an intro b/c i dont want anything to be misunderstood...

Im not angry, im not going to stop development, etc etc.

All i want to express is that this is considered somethin huge!! How many weeks have developers been working on this with no success???

The way i discovered is the most unorthodox way possibly and nobody told me the way... So, yeah im really proud that I managed to figure out a way noone would think of... And yes, that I considere ORIGINAL ANDROID DEVELOPMENT...

Thats where the disappoinment and demoralization comes...

Especially when i see threads of Roms that come on please.... and they receive so much support and especially donations... (Fu#$#K that, im not asking for that)... But it makes you wonder... Here you are, developing something noone has done yet, and yet i received 10-15 thank yous...

Go visit other threads and see what i mean... Check their OP with the number of donations (!!!)... Then tell me what better have they accomplished than the Echoe Rom... So YEAH, thats when THE DISAPPOINTMENT comes!! This ROM with so many followers and downloads has received 6-7 donations , which most of them were from the members of our team... Do you think that's fair??

And dont judge me for expressing my feelings!! That's me, that's what I do.... This is what i feel right now, this is what im expressing...

Thats the end of this chapter...

Now lets go back to business.... ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] monokoo:
Thanks for your excellent work. I have flashed the V4, It's very smooth. I will try Echoe V4 after flashing the stock mj3 rom.

By the way, can I use the Addons 5 in the post #2 to remove transparent background？ Thank you again.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sswagonman:
Well said Friedrich well said u have achieved something awesome here.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mr.Yawnie:
Oolalaa!! :good::good:

I think i will hold back just for a while more until flashing the new version, but I'm amazed that you found a working solution this fast and was able to produce a new echoe using Android 4.3! And yet again you were the first one to make it work fully! Amazing :) very good job indeed, even though I think i won't flash it quite yet as I need LTE working fully. :) I'm sure you or someone else will find a solution and make it work perfectly, it's just a matter of time.

I will also update the FAQ when i have time to have those questions about the new version that everyone keeps asking.. Bootloader and wifi lag plus everything I think is necessary to add there.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
1st battery results... Screen on time with 60% left
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
No transparent BG my friend :) So you dont need any of the AddOns :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] action294:
This is so awesome. At this point I'm going to migrate from Omega to Echoe! Thank you for the great work.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] monokoo:
Sorry, I mean the background of system settings...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Eagerly awaiting for everyone's feedback :)

(Bearing in mind the bugs that are already mentioned)

Your overall impressions about fluidity, responsiveness, speed, the 4.3 changes etc. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] GhiGo65:
Great friedrich (and team echoe also)

You cooked the first 4.3 omelette of this section :thumbup:

As somebody said: "you can't make an omelette without breaking some eggs"....

And we have to say that this team of chefs is the first that has found the cooking recipe to cook a wonderfull omelette.... So don't bother them with wifi or data bugs....

We can flash or not, but we have to thanks the team for this new Omelette!

:thumbup::thumbup::D:D:D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sswagonman:
In my opinion for a leak u have done great. The screen is a huge improvement in sharpness. And smooth wow
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Thank you so much you guys!!! :) :good:

Do you guys want me to create a flashable zip to remove the custom Echoe bacground image? I love it and it will be a standard in our Roms, but i understand if it annoys people...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sswagonman:
I would like a pure black background if u can and a white circle battery if u can
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] leimrey:
Dude! You won't regret this decision you made!

Thumbs up to you!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Give me a few minutes to get you a flashable zip....

Here you go: https://mega.co.nz/#!CwoDBRyK!Pk7V9m8tzpwxTby-dZub7yeWLB4oCXmTeSU-CWCUdJ4

Just flash it via recovery... Ignore the "Fix Root message" if you get one before you reboot :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] muoino:
hi friedrich420,

Thanks for your quick update of 4.3. Just a question will we have slim version for MJ3?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Here's the original BG my friend ;) https://mega.co.nz/#!CwoDBRyK!Pk7V9m...XmTeSU-CWCUdJ4

For the white battery give me some time ;) Im getting better at theming as the time progresses but now i have to focus on developing and tech support ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Piretia:
Why wen the rom reboot we have a installation of some applications in Germany???
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Definitely but i cant estimate how long it will take ....

give it a day or 2
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] oluwaponmile:
You probably owns no one an explanation or apology. We should be grateful that we have this 4.3 from you.....not winning about something trivial.

How many developers respond to thread the you do? Probably none.

We love your work my good friend.......

And for the record......Echoe is the first custom 4.3 rom for S4 made by friedrich...:)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jioleight:
now downloading. this rom will be my first TW based custom rom. pls confirm that the new bootloader and knox are not included. will this work with KT-SGS4 kernel?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] innit:
hey, stock background would be great. very snappy rom. no problems so far
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sswagonman:
Definatly nit included. I have just restored ml1 old bootloader
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Thank you for confirming my good friend!! :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sswagonman:
Hmm Mega link seems nit to be working mate. Asks for decryption key
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] vicky706:
Friedrich, i read some pages of your tread and your good work...

I will download your ROM .

Now I say Thanks , hope can do more for support your work...
