Thanks , Axman. I really appreciate The kind words. I really just wanted to make this rom so that people who were scared to try out cm 10.2 had an easy way to use it. But not only use it but also use it and stay ahead of the slowly built official nightlies. I know they pump them out every night but each nightly contains such small amount of commit changes , while when mine come out there are SO MANY commit changes. Im really trying hard and have been studying new ways I can develop this into a better looking rom too. I remembered you said you hated the layout so Im thinkng of away to make the theme and layout to be interchangeable with a new look. Thanks , though really , man. I find that cool as hell that you got your wife on my rom INSTEAD OF OMEGA!!! ;) That means I must be doing some good work. HAHA. I might just have something to add to this that may be just specifically for you, since you mentioned something about it (ASIDE FORM BT :PPP , IM TRYING TO GET THE GOD FOR SAKEN BT haha)

Man, 2.6 twrp is a file system destroyer, it corrupted the partitions on a friend of mine, and we had to jtag here at the office, I mean the 1st true hard brick I have seen yet. I will be on 2.5.0.2 forever, count on it, again, new changes and updates are not always a good thing, be very careful.[/QUOTE][/COLOR]

Yes , I will never use twrp 2.6.0.0. EVER AGAIN. I researched more and read about your claims . You are smart to not use that recovery . NOT TO MENTION... Did you read the post about 5 back gorrynell had to odin back to stock baecause either the recivery or because loki and I'm 95% sure it's because of recovery . I now use CWM standard. I dont even use touch. Though I want to try philz I keep hearing things about radio not working after recovery . Now I actually just want to use cwm touch but I dont wan to have to use Odin to install it. I want to just flash it. I havent had to ever use Odin yet. How bad is it to install cwm touch with Odin ? Is it easy as hell or does it leave sweat on your brow while you wait? I dont have a windows installed on my linux box but I just bought a new 600 GB HDD and Im about to dual boot it with my linux on seperate drives.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Thanks, neria!! neria was one of my first testers and supporters along with [MENTION=3802385]TheAxman[/MENTION] . These guys have helped push me to create and work on this rom. Thanks guys. Please throw me some feedback on the new build asap.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
b@ttery

My new build has the best battery yet. Right now Im at 22 hours of up time. On screen around 5 hours. This is WITHOUT KT's kernel . Ive not tested with kt's aosp 8/9/13 yet . Can someone please test and give me results so I can update the OP for more accurate results? But you mus admit on a stock kernel that is VERY good. Still have while until im on the red too. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Post feedback and results.Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
BTW [MENTION=5263625]neriamarillo[/MENTION] I forgot to mention focal has been fixed. I haven't had any error with it yet after a full day of shots. It's working as good of not better than stock!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] neriamarillo:
Photo quality too? Why is it still show that it is flipped as in the shutter button says its on the right side or top if in landscape when it is not(first time instructions) and then the front facing is still flipped :sly:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Front facing isn't flipped on this build but ...alas I took the front facing shot , only to are that after taken it was rendered with green lines. It weird when I first started using it everything was exceptional but once I played with it more little errors started coming back. I feel like its not caching certain things correctly. :(

Oh well anyways did you try it out yet? Any feedback?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] LuRock:
Front facing cam is working fine here. So far so good, rom feels smooth and stable. Will continue testing..:thumbup::thumbup:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] neriamarillo:
Yeap. Using it now. Front facing is not flipped anymore but it has balcl and green lines lol but so far so good! I know the camera issues are not on your part so all ok !
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Yeah but earlier it was actually working better. Did you try clearing cache on the app? I cleared cache and everything was wildling perfect but then things start getting loopy after a few shots . I don't know what the deal is with that freaking camera lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Soup_Nazi:
Ok, thanks. Love AOSP so may have to give this one a whirl.

Edit: BTW, Sky, read your comment about recoveries and all that. I came from TWRP 2.5.0.2 and went to Philz. Really really like it compared to TWRP. Only had one flash on it so far, so not sure about the radio thing...

I like the fact I can do internal SD card formats w/o breaking encryption, the touch interface is nice, and the "install clean ROM" option makes your wipes simple. Don't have much time this week, but will try to test out your ROM when I can and flash it with Philz...I'll let ya know if it works out OK.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Try it out, man. It's really a great rom . Its a small download too. Takes about 10 minutes to download. If you like aosp , you'll love this rom. It is pure aosp.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Soup_Nazi:
What the heck, it's only 10, I'll flash it tonight....After I just got done posting to Ax I wouldn't flash anything for a while...haha:p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
What happened? Did somethingess up on your last flash or something? That would suck . This is a very simple install and you should have NO problems. I'd it hangs on the Sammy boot logo, DO NOT FREAK OUT OR PANIC WWAIT 3 MINUTES. I had to wait three minutes and it stated done and in running it now and it's running perfectly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Soup_Nazi:
No, I've never really had a bad flash honestly. IDK...just tried flashing yours with Philz. It took a LONG time to get to "android is upgrading apps"(Philz takes longer anyhow) it did its thing then just sat there at starting... maybe I didn't give it enough time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Is it running now? I flashed 5 hours ago with cwm . Sat on boot logo for a few minutes maybe about 5 then turned right on. You're trying to flash a kernel at the same time as the rom aren't you?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
I'd flash the rom by itself , with gapps . It will boot quickly , then after you have it running nice and stable boot to recovery clear cahe , and dalvik . flash your kernel restart .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Soup_Nazi:
Nope went to my nandroid. Nah, I figured I would run stock kernel for a while to get a good baseline test for you.

---------- Post added at 11:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 PM ----------

And not that flashing takes a long time....just that id wanna set everything up to my liking. I may try again, and be more patient. I thought I had given it plenty of time

---------- Post added at 11:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 PM ----------

Hold on, give me a few. I'll do it again and let it sit for 15
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
That's what I do for every flash. Wait 10 minutes is my rule of thumb. But I've read a lot of people having bad reactions from philz and twrp 2.6 with android 4.3 based ROMs. Peoples radios stop working and phone bricking , soft and hard . That's why I just stick with the OG. CWM . I actually hated cwm and used twrp always but once you start dev'ing ROMs you see the amount of trouble people go through to have a pretty looking recovery. So I will user cwm for good. Oh BTW if you use and advanced cwm you should use shabbys oudhs . It auto Loki's and I never had even one mistake using it . plus its touch and hard button controlled . I might even use it again I kinda forgot about how much I liked it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Soup_Nazi:
Yup, didn't have a radio after flashing with Philz. That, and even after the first boot, the second one would take long. Like, it would boot, but the screen would stay black for a long time and 'slowly' boot the phone. As you said, I may just end up going to OG CWM..never had problems with that either.

---------- Post added at 12:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:01 AM ----------

Kinda disappointing because I like Philz.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Yeah that's what I was trying to explain. He wrote it somewhere on his thread. It's way in the middle of the thread. Sorry man but you got two options .

1. Install new recovery or ..

2. Use 4.2 based ROMs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shadowronemus:
Getting ready to flash now the update now. I had good results on the last with Ktoonsez kernel, keep up the good work... Thanks a bunch!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
I'm glad you are liking it. I've been trying to make it work as good as possible. What date of kt/aosp did you run? I mean which release date from him? Thank you for the feedback.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shadowronemus:
I ran the 8/09 then the 8/15 of KT's kernel, fairly close to his recommended settings with 18-20 hrs, 4-5 hrs screen time. Flashing his latest now with your update I'll let you know how it goes after a day of so. Thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
The newest update has greatly improved battery on the stock kernel but I have not tried it with any kernel aside from stock. It's word though because stock seems to be doing almost BETTER than kt's !! But this seems crazy to me because kt's has done me better always on ANY rom .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shadowronemus:
Thanks for the heads up on stock, I will run KT's 8-20 for a day or two to give it a chance to settle and report back with results for those who wish to know, then I will check out stock kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Cool , thanks for feedback. Seems like its been pretty calm around my forum . My other three testers ( the one's who always help me improve through feedback must be on a vaca? Lol) So I'm glad you're using it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] neriamarillo:
Haha I'm here! Using KT 8-20 kernel. Pretty good so far. I never have any big bugs with your ROMs like I do with other. You must be doing something right lol !:p:thumbup:

Also, seems like picture quality with focal has improved a bit. Compared a photo with stock sammy on tw and focal on this ROM and they came out almost the same!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Haha ;) thanks neria. I had a feeling you would run about my thread and see my joke haha. So you've had no errors aside from focal( love/hate ) ?

I'm glad is running right .

Yeah my cm is running the moto x active notifications . hahahah.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] neriamarillo:
I'm always around here. I'm just trying to make this fail and I can't. Imagine that I went to tw to for a while the other day to test out the camera and had a horrible experience once again. Screen locking, lots of lag (compared to aosp) and needless to say I came running back lol how I wish I could use the Sammy cam here or wait till focal gets way better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Yeah , I know what you mean. It really sucks that the camera game isn't the best for either aosp , cm, or Sammy . I feel that cm is so busy getting all these devices to 4.3 that they are barely having any man power to work and debug focal . I must say that it really needs it too. I REALLY HOPE that they get on it soon. I almost fell they should have waited to unveil it if they were going to take so long to improve it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Soup_Nazi:
Flashing right now through shabby...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Take your time and don't panic. Let it door than key it do it's THANG!!! Lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Soup_Nazi:
Super snappy... I'm running KT kernel. Quick question I've wanted to ask for some time now. Is there anyway to increase the activation width for quick controls on AOSP browser? I honestly dunno how I can live w/o it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
You mean the tiles? Can you give more detail? BTW I'm glad you got it running in going it does you well .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Soup_Nazi:
I should add, with shabby and this ROM. By FAR the fastest first boot I've ever seen. I was actually very surprised. BTW, not being a d*&k, I'm by no means new to flashing ROMs. I could do it in my sleep... I just wanted to try Philz last night for the hell of it lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Lol I didn't take you for a d*c% I took you for someone newer to Philz cwm . I've never used it but developing roms that a lot of people message me about naturally I have to know what are the best and worst recov's to recommend . It's all good, man. I how you enjoy the rom. It's slicker than owl $h17 . lol. It really is fast. I keep thinking about going to go play on a touch wiz room again for a but but the touch wiz are all on 4.2.2 , and once you use this 4.3 it's hard to go back. Iv mean seriously I'm loving this rom and it'll only get better by the day. I try to update every two to three days btw.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Soup_Nazi:
AOSP browser>settings>labs>quick controls. The activation area width is so skinny, its pretty much impossible to use with a case. Even w/o a case its very difficult to find the sweet spot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] neriamarillo:
Let me know which one you try. Want to see what all the fuzz is about the tw people claim because I love this ROM and 4.3 run waaaay better than 4.2.2 tw.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Oh!!! Yeah I know exactly what you are talking about but I have no answer for that one. I have NO idea how to do that. I haven't even read anything about anyone commenting on that lol. You're are quite right though. It is TRULY IMPOSSIBLE to year the quick settings for the AOSP web browser with an otterbox. [MENTION=4443278]Soup_Nazi[/MENTION]
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Have you tried OMEGA 9 ? It was the best battery life of ANY ANY ROM that I've ever used. In sure only because the rom is built natively for the s4 while my source based rom is based on open source project code.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
I downloaded wicked 5 . Did toy try it yet? I hear really great things about it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
[MENTION=5263625]neriamarillo[/MENTION]

Guess you were right this rom is running like hell. It's VERY VERY VERY laggy. I mean ridiculously laggy. Sometimes I'm waiting up to am entire full second. Toy know there are a few tw features I forgot how much I liked. Like the keyboard. I used to hate it but since using it this time I kinda like it . Also I like screen sensitivity. Battery is charging super fast to. Like before I even waited for 30 minutes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] neriamarillo:
Dude now that I feel the smoothness of cm in 4.3 tw seems extremely laggy and it sucks..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] gorrynel:
silky smooth, stay away from TWRP with 4.3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] neriamarillo:
Just from 2.6.0.0 on 2.5.0.2 everything works fine. :thumbup:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] qbills314:
Is the IR blaster working in this rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Soup_Nazi:
Yeah, idk if a lot of people don't use it or what. I don't know why not. Makes for a nice clean browsing experience and ease of use. Who do you think we should talk to to try and get that fixed? On some phones it's fine, but since the screen goes so near the edge of the phone on our S4's it has rendered the feature useless.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
I had it enabled but there were conflicts in the code when I updated a few commits . I had to remove it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
OK sorry about the no updates lately !! Been having horrible luck with work and family , so things haven't really been going well.

Whatever the case I have upgraded my computer with two new 500GB hard drives. I've made myself install

Windows 7 and dual boot it under neath my primary Ubuntu os. I've done all this because I'm thinking about trying some tw rom development on windows OS.

Anyways ....

ROM WILL BE UPDATED TONIGHT . HUGE UPDATES, NEW FEATURES, MORE STABILITY , MORE BUTTERY SPEED!!!!!!!

Hope you ready to run , I know you'll love it!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] brojoe11:
I'm new to your thread but like what I read. I tried the lastest version exactly as instructed and all I got when I turned my phone back on was a blank screen. I did a nandroid back to rooted stock. Hope the new build tonight will flash for me. Not sure what I did wrong with first try. Just gonna wait for the new build. Thanks for all your hard work. :good:

edit: Wanted to add...don't know what's happening at work and with the family and don't need to know...just know that you are in my thoughts and prayers...nothing is more important than family, even a new rom...just saying.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] neriamarillo:
Now those words can even revive the dead! I like!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] gerard0986:
Does this ROM include Voice+ from CyanogenMod too?

EDIT: It does. This is one fast rom too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
In not sure what you're doing wrong but many , many people have flashed it successfully including the guy posting above [MENTION=5263625]neriamarillo[/MENTION]

Did you let the phone sit for 10 minutes after flashing

1. ROM

2.FLASH LOKI-DOKI.ZIP

3.FLASH GAPPS

4.TURN DIRECTLY OFF WAIT 10 MINUTES.

and thanks for the prayers. I could use em right now. BTW my power to my computer room decided to turn off. So no electricity in my ENTIRE COMPUTER ROOM. Aside from that my computer weighs 230Ibs and I'm not moving that aluminum anvil. So no update until I check what screwing up the circuit or call an electrician .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] brojoe11:
I may not can flash a rom right every time but I can pray...lol. thanks for your response. No rush and no problem. I look forward to when you get everything back up and running. :good:

Thanks. We all need lifting up every now and then. :highfive:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jedimyndtryx:
I flashed this on Saturday. Ran perfectly fine until I received a phone call and my entire phone became unresponsive and required a battery pull.Then every time I tried to place a call or received a call the same thing would happen. This has happened to me on ALL CM roms. I've tried a good 4-5 different ones and I get the same issue. Any TW ROM is fine so I'm not sure what in the CM firmware is causing this on my phone. I've looked at the different "In Call" fixes and flashed a few on previous tries and nothing gets fixed. Is anyone else having a problem like this?? Someone mentioned it could be that I was UV'ing too much but this was on stock. Like I said, ran beautifully until I received a call.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
So far you are the only person experiencing this with my rom. I haven't heard this from anyone , here or on others. Are you flashing a custom kernel too?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jedimyndtryx:
No it was stock which was weird. I purposely left it stock because i had only had the issues with ktoonzs' AOSP kernel UV'ed by 50. I thought not UV'ing would do the trick and I'd be fine with CM10.2 but it was bad. Completely unresponsive. I'm more than happy to it try again. I'll wipe everything several times. Could be an issue with my phone though? Only CM ROMs do this. Im beginning to think its hardware related for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shadowronemus:
Just an update on battery life with KT's kernel. I'm getting 18-24 hours with 4 hours or so screentime running his recommended settings other than only undervolting by -25 across the board as -50 causes reboots occasionally. I've had almost no issues with this ROM other than not being able to read my music from external SD, which is an issue on all the CM ROMs to the best of my knowledge, and look forward to flashing the next update which I'm gonna try with stock kernel first this time. Thanks for the great work Sky!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Thanks shadow. I don't know of you read the posts before my electricity went out so I've been basically screwed over for updates. However today I fixed my circuit breaker and the 200 lbs beast computer will be roaring tonight with a new update . So be ready because it will have MANY MANY updates . It will actually contain new ui menus and features not even seen on any cm rom yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
This is my baby . That's the beast that pushes out all the ROMs. The one to the right of course lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jd1639:
What the f is it? What you got in there?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] shadowronemus:
I did read through after posting, glad you got it sorted and hope things are going better. That sounds badass, looking forward to it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] bigblue95z:
That thing looks beastly for a home rig! We've got some pretty big, bad ass HP's at work with dual Xeon and 64gb ram, raid 10, running RH and MySQL. Things have to weigh like 70+lbs!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
[MENTION=4858937]jd1639[/MENTION] that is a 4.5 grand, custom built , all aluminum, Linux based rig. Actually just added a new drive for windows 7 so now I can run either . The screen is my 42 in. Flat screen. Lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jd1639:
It's a beast man, pretty cool. You use that just to crunch roms? You must crunch a lot of other stuff too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Nah that's a hacking machine right there. Its an all around machine so that I can use it for anything . I love it man , it's my baby . One thing I hate is that you need a fork lift to move it. Lmao.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Is perfect for anything really. I mean video editing and all . I actually use it as a studio interface too. I produce music with it. Its great for audio design and audio work .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jd1639:
Yea, and a new circuit breaker to feed it:)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sky_fox:
Why do you need Philz ? Philz is having errors with almost all the 4.3 ROMs. I'm not saying its a bad recovery but its not flashing correctly on a lot of ROMs right now. If you all most devs they will all tell you use cwm , hence the reason every rom says cwm instructions more often than twrp instructions. Plus as a developer myself I can guarantee you it's much more stable. Cwm is the OG of recoveries .
