also, this ROM has call recording baked in. So if using a volume boost mod and it's not confirmed by me in this thread, please don't come and complain asking why is the call freezing when trying to do call record.

THIS is why.

flashing things NOT made for my ROM.

I just hope everyone understands I'm not trying to be an ass when I preach these things it's just not really everyone understand how much and what does go on behind the scenes for making these ROMs.

Takes a lot of time and patience. Both of which I do not have.

to my main point,

once you flash ANYTHING, and I mean anything for a reason,

outside of this thread, meaning if you flash anything that isn't an official add-on that isn't made by me that consists of anything, exactly like this volume MOD, kernel, themes, MODs, etc.. anything you flash outside of this thread you void any type of issue warranty in this thread, please do NOT even post about the issues after you do outside flashing.

Do a nandroid and be on this ROM stock (meaning no outside flashing) and you did a Clean Wipe, as per asked in the OP.

As I said earlier, not doing this to be an ass.

It's because it's literally impossible for me to support ANYTHING, NOT made by me.

This could mean something even as small as flashing the volume MOD, and or kernel from darkslide.

This could mean flashing a systemui theme, just anything guys I'm sure you get the point. :)

It's just I had some issues in the past of people flashing outside stuff, then coming into the thread to ask why or to complain, then the guys who don't post but read the threads come across that question and now I need to

1) explain why it has nothing to do with the ROM

2) I can't do anything about it.

Sorry for the rant, I just hope that everyone understands why this is a big problem for myself and DEVs alike, having others post issues about things I didn't even make.

Fresh ROM, Fresh Wipe, confirm issue, post issue.

(and I'm just preaching, this isn't meant for who ever I quoted up top, it's to everyone.) :)

It's all good man.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hondrongo:
I for one completely understand. No worries. Great ROM, cant wait to see what you come up with next.:highfive:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Badger50:
That wasn't a rant Andy...that's just telling it like it is. People seem to forget the most common disclaimer that you usually find in any OP for any Rom, mod, or tweak...." I am not responsible for anything YOU do to your phone" This is great Rom out of the box as is. Especially for your first one. Which is why I sent you some beer money to show my appreciation. Keep up the great work buddy :thumbup:

Sent fom my Mobile Beast Device :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
Thank you kindly, my friends!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
Quick update guys.

Here is the To-Do list:

Auto Call Recording - Just Add into Aroma, or ROM, not sure yet

Enabled Spell Check - Should be able to get this one done just fine

Verizon Wireless Logo Removed from Pull Down - Should be very easy

Added Lock Button to status bar pull down - Should be easy

Edge Zoom - Might Remove as can't get it to work 100%

Lock screen rotation - Might remove if I can't get it to work

Voice search app (S Voice, Google) - Might remove if I can't get it to work

NFC polling (screen off, lockscreen) - Might remove if I can't get it to work

So basically I have gotten all the big things done that I wanted, above lists what my thoughts are about the MODs.

Edge Zoom, Lock Screen Rotation, Voice Search Option, and NFC polling might get removed from the BoneStock Settings Menu if I can't get them to work. (sometimes it's hard to remove them from the menu so if I can't get the MODs and I am having too much issues removing them, they will just be in the menu, most likely added to the bottom of the list and they just won't do anything.

auto call recording I just have to basically make it an option in Aroma, or choose to just add it to the ROM (not sure yet), enabling spell check shouldn't be an issue and shouldn't take too long, logo from pull down was easy, hopefully it's the same way in 4.3, if not it'll have to stay, and the lock button will have to be an Aroma option as well as I know not everyone likes it (that's if I can get it)

Not too much longer guys, sorry it has taken this long but my free time isn't what is used to be unfortunately, but I am excited to get this released! Been putting in every bit of free time I can to get this out :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FordNate:
xposed has a lockscreen off enabler. same thing as lock screen polling? I dont know too much about what exactly near field com foes or the inner workings of it but it kinda seems similar to me..

Rome wasnt built in a day and beer saved the modern world
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
If you want to use xposed I would just use the stock ROM and then install xposed. I don't use it in my ROMs as I choose to code the mods into the ROM. Preference is really all it is. I and others prefer to have the modifications directly smali coded into the ROM. Also it takes all the fun out of it for me from a development standpoint. I enjoy making the mods work editing the smali code. :) I'm not saying what xposed does/is isn't an amazing thing. I just prefer not to use it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] markwebb:
Good point. I also have an unlocked rooted moto x and despite lack of development, I really don't need a ROM when exposed is available. Phone does what I need it to do. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
Absolutely, xposed is some serious ground breaking sh+t. A truly incredible way of adding these great modifications without the hassle of smali code editing, And the fact of how diverse it is with the amount of phones that are supported is amazing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FordNate:
Totally understandable. Could you use the xposed mod as to kinda see how it was pulled off and "perfected" in order to edit smali on your own or maybe pick up a hint or two?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
that may possibly work, although I have never really used the xposed so I cant say for sure, got the lock screen rotation, working on double tap for svoice or google, but cant seem to get it to work, that and the power button in status bar, a beta will be out soon. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
TO-DO:

Edge Zoom - Had it half way working, (worked in G-Mail, but Browser would give a F/C, so I may have to leave this one until I get it)

NFC polling (screen off, lockscreen) - Not 100% sure can get this to work.

Verizon Wireless Logo Removed from Pull Down - Need to put in my SIM card to test, but should be gone, if not will try to remove it later.

Added Lock Button to status bar pull down - Having some issues with this, may have to release and add it in later

DONE:

You and me both. Got to love having another rom to flash.

Hey Andy,

Would it be possible to incorporate this theme as a side patch?

Great work man!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
Yea actually hoping to get an aosp theme done after release. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
Uploading now. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shockz:
Awesome! Does it by any chance have the dark international dialer? I think it looks so much better than the white one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
No, this is stock themed, sorry.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shockz:
All is good, glad to see an update :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MIKEYSAKZ:
You guys are truly lucky to have a developer such as andy working on this device primarily. I have had his last update on my s3 for like a year and as I have mentioned in other threads the stability that comes with bonestock has pretty much rendered my rooted and completely unblocked bootloader pretty much worthless. Glad to see you released a rom for this device and if and when you release for the s3 I will dust my recovery off and flash once again provided I remember even how to do it seeing as I haven't flash anything in what feels like an eternity. Much respect Mr. Bones for all you have already done any thing else is and will clearly be a bonus
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pmania:
I see the ROM is uploaded. All good to flash? :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AliceBToklas:
I don't find a link for download in OP. Unless I'm just overlooking it I suspect he left things off yesterday and will be back soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gkersting:
Didn't see anything mentioned about working with SafeStrap 3.7.1

I'm already on MK2 and ready for another BoneStock.

Thanks for all you do in putting out great ROMs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Bullhead00:
Does this version include the battery bar at the top option?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
Flash ROM then flash wifi modules found in the SS thread. :) Should be the same as installing hyperdrive. :)

Sorry, not yet. I know you can download a third party application though until it's coded into the ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
Damn, I love his logo.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vx2ko:
stuck on boot logo

Im on safestrap 3.71 and I installed this rom with the wifi modules. Now its stuck on the boot logo. Is there something im missing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kenpachi 91:
Can anyone verify if the Verizon logo is removed from the pull down notification. I want to have nothing of Verizon on my phone (aside from their logo on the back of their phone, which is convered up by my case lol). I also have the Bonestock boot animation, by wolfballz, installed. Will this be affected?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] trmiv:
Where is the download link?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
Sorry, I can't test SS cos I am MDK boot loader, but AFAIK you should be able to just flash the ROM, WiFi won't work until modules are flashed. Hmm , maybe I can figure something out that's going wrong..

This has not been removed yet, please read the features and to-do list for v2.1

1st page, under downloads.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] trmiv:
Ahh ok. For some reason I thought I was looking for v2.1. Doh!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shockz:
Only thing I see is Verizon Wireless on the pulldown handle and lockscreen. If you want to change those though, you can download xposed and use wanam to change the carrier text.

Other than that, I got the rom running, no FC's yet, nice and fast, and I was able to flash the international dialer from jrkruse, everything is flawless so far! Great job andy, keep up the amazing work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vx2ko:
Ok thats understandable. I just flashed it like youre supposed to for safestrap and it gets stuck on boot logo and gets extremely warm. No errors given upon install and I only checked 4 things during the aroma installer. ill try and flash without modules and see if I can at least get it to boot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] storm81456:
Is Swype missing from the installer? I know I ticked the box in aroma. Missing for anyone else?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
It's possible I left the .apk out of aroma folder, I'll check it out, thanks.

Thank you to all those on safestrap feedback, I apologize for the problems.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] storm81456:
It's in the aroma, I just pulled it out and installed it separately from the aroma folder of the zip. Maybe I accidentally unchecked the box when I installed.

On another note, looks and runs great again Andy. Solid work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vx2ko:
The boot without modules didn't work. It didn't even boot without the ss modules. Thank you sir. I really want to try your rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
I'll have to see if there is anything that needs to be done to the ROM to make it SS compatible, but I just thought it would boot then need the WiFi modluew.

Maybe need to run a ROM that's working, remove the not.IMG from my ROMs.zip and maybe it'll go?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
Thank you kindly, Sir.

Sounds like I have a typo in the script. Thank you for the feedback.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vx2ko:
Im going to see if I cant figure out whats loading or not loading and ill post what I find for you to look at. sound good?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FordNate:
DL at ho,e n installed all while at the vets office for my moms lazy dog. Andy this ROM amazing and artistically simple. Wow. I haven't taken it full course yet, but i plan to. I'll keep you posted on bugs. Question though. Under about phone its greyed out but still i see where it says factory data reset : unknown.. is that an issue? factory data reset every flash sooo shouldnt it say at least todays date?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gkersting:
Same here on my attempts. After multiple attempts, it started booting back into the stock recovery, so I went back into SS and restored a backup ROM until Andy figures this one out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Evocm7:
AnyOne know of any 5x5 tw launchers that work with this yet? I kinda like tw but hate how much screen space Samsung wasted using 4 icon rows. The one for hyperdrive didn't work

Loving the rom btw Andy. Great work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] old&slow:
Awesome job Andy and well worth the wait! Nice and simplistic with all of the mods that I wish I could do. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
Very much appreciated, Sir. Hope your furry friend is ok. :)

I think that will only update if you were to do a factory reset using the method from within the phone, somewhere in settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Poofster:
Anyone on mk2 with safestrap get this working?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brw9100:
Another great job Andy! Installation was easy and flawless as is the ROM. Thanks again for all of your efforts!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ascallop:
I second that sentiment :) Excellent job! Thanks Andy!

I'm using Nova (with a 6x5) desktop.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
I am going to upload a test SS ROM, with the modules already pre-installed in the ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Evocm7:
I know about those. Guess I'm going to have to use another launcher until there's a modded tw launcher that works with this rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
I usually never mess with editing the launchers, but I think you can use ones from another phone that is edited, unless I can port it over I will work on that for next release,
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brw9100:
I had a dark themed dialer (maybe from the International ROM?) running in my previous Bonestock install and really liked it. Now I can't find it and XDA search is not available. Anyone have a link to that mod?? (I somehow lost the download I thought I had saved ;-( )
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
[MENTION=3074508]old&slow[/MENTION]. Would ya mind testing the touch. I am editing bones files since his are modified..

If all is good Andy is more than welcome to add it to his rom to help him get things implamented.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
testing what?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
Torch... I see a typo.. He tested this Torch quick toggle I did based off his Mk2 stock rom..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
should be in with the auto call recording MOD.

I left that out as I only use applications from VERIZON ROM and the base I said I am working on, in this case MK2.

not even 1 .apk will be from another ROM/base.

Everything is 100% ported to MK2.

as for the auto call recording I left it out because it's not our files, it's international .apks, which do work fine, yes.

But I chose to add the menu call recording mod, I like it better anyway.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
ahh thatd be cool, I have that on the to-do list, would love to get it done.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
You more than welcome to it. Since I'm using your modded files it's exclusive to your build..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
cool sounds good, will give credit.

-------------------

working on a few things, no promises, but hoping to get a few more MODs added into the BoneStock Settings, such as CRT toggle menu, and home button wake toggle.

v2.1 will be out soon once I get some more things done, it will be a flash-over ROM though not full wipe.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brw9100:
OK, thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vx2ko:
[MENTION=2586080]andybones[/MENTION] So from what ive gathered, it doesnt look like your rom is loading up at all on SS devices. It is literally just sitting at the boot logo and getting warm. logcat isnt spitting anything out either. I dont know what to do from here. Did you post the test SS build on the forum?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] old&slow:
The

TORCH

works great. Sorry, I thought I had already gotten back to you. :o
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
Yes u did.. Was the stock mj2 files.

R u running it here it will work. The edits bones made to his files WI be lost.. I'm maken it this time around with his modded files.

It's running into a little project. Since things where posted from me 7..in the (secsettings) file.. But I'll get it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JCBiznatch:
I searched and didn't see it on the list but question is there hotspot in this rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] old&slow:
No, didn't flash over Andy's. I waited til I got home and wiped and flashed my "plain ole rom" first. :p

Definitely have to start over from scratch.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
OK before you go back can you test this for me..

If not its cool..

If there is anyone that would test this it would be greatly appreciated

Im not running bones atm. Working on a highly modified project so no time to go back and forth atm..

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
My SystemUI.apk is highly modified, can u post the systemui.apk and I will diff it out and credit you

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrkruse:
The reason its not working with safestrap is the root method that flashes after the zip causes safestrap users to bootloop. I found this to be the problem in my earlier 4.3 roms when safestrap users tried to use them
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] enc4real007:
Interesting!

So technically not rooting till the init boot with saferoot is not a bad idea?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrkruse:
This is a nice solid build. Runs great! I saw some people wondering about dark dialer and contacts, feel free to use any of my mods from my roms in this one. You can direct link to my downloads if you want.

Hey man many thanks for all your work and contributions and esp. the props on the ROM truly means a lot. I was wondering if you could help me make a SS version of this ROM , please?

Or do you mind I pick your ROM apart, and post a SS version for those on SS?

Credit will be given of coarse :)
