Thanks :good:

Can you add in future versions these interesting features inside the rom?

- Unlimited contacts can be added to SMS - MMS (Unlimited SMS recipients)

- No SMS to MMS conversion

- Sms - mms messaging original time stamp (SMS / MMS Shows sent time instead of received time)

Thank you :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iB4STiD:
I'll try to get to those
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mrachni:
I can say that phone heats up more with latest leaked firmware, also with 18.2.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Repulsa:
Everything works perfectly fine here :D Fast and smooth. make sure to full wipe.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mrachni:
I was talking about phone warming,not about the speed or smoothness.

Full wipe/clean install is what i always do.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Repulsa:
That's what i ment Fast and smooth + my phone doesnt heat up at all .ived been using this rom since day one and never had any issue like that. Have a nice day.

Edit:@mrachni, try to download an app that can monitor your battery and check which app is alway running in the background or You could try to get a new battery under your warranty or insurance if you have that, otherwise just buy a new battery. :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] KenHua:
If it is warm (or even hot) after the initial installation it is quite normal in my experience if you have a lot of media (pics, videos etc.) A few Samsung apps (SecGallary, Collage, SamsungVideo etc.) initial some very aggressive media scan and generates thousands upon thousands of thumbnails and face-data. They have improved it a lot but still I remove them and use others from PlayStore. They used to create some much of those cache that they ran into gigabytes -- bigger than the media that I had! They are not so bad for the recent ROM's. Your phone should be back to normal once the scan is over.

The ROM is smooth and speedy. Thanks a lot to iB4STid.:good::good::good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iB4STiD:
thanks man... here is my experience since owning the s4 .. there r 2 times my phone will become warm to hot

1. doing a full wipe followed by flashing a rom for the first install, then setting up gmail, followed by restoring my data/apps via tb

2. charging my device

a tip ... after doing number 1... let your device go into standby and let it sit for a bit .. also a rom needs time to settle .. so i will let it charge over night and use it throughout the day to test whatever im working on.. from doing this as much as i do .. i can tell pretty fast if an idea is going to work

for normal people however let ur device settle in .. use it for 2 or 3 days .. i would give the same advice when flashing kernels :good:

also another tip .. over time its a good idea to backup media and tb onto ur pc and format ur sdcard via ur device then copy back ur pics/music/etc .. check ur sdcard u will see a folder named android .. over time that data will build up.. and well sammy n sdcards have a tendency to corrupt ..

also internal storage maintenance is a good idea as well.. flashing many different roms or rom updates can cause strange things over time! making a backup and giving ur device a clean environment to flash a rom on will make all the difference in the world!!

benefits by doing the above...better battery life.. stable base to flash on .. good habits !

There are big differences compared with previous versions!

+ Battery (BIG Improvements with my use during the day)

I usually never write feedbacks in threads but this time i can feel the gap with other versions!

I think it might be useful for people who are unsure if update or not!

Fantastic!!! 18.2 is the best so far :)

Just one question, after i flashed the Sim Fast modd, trip advisor, flipboard and other similar apps still remained instaled. I uninstalled with titanium. It's normal? I thought that even this crapp will desappear with slim fast...

But once again, iB4STiD you are the man, thank you.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iB4STiD:
Thank you man! Those apps can be uninstalled without tb.. I set those apps in /data/app .. So all you have to do is open app tray hit menu then uninstall .. Did it that way in case people wanted to use all the Samsung apps but didn't want to use those apks

Again thank you for the feedback !

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] benbird7:
Sorry for asking this question, just wanted clarification before I do something wrong!

I should get my S4 back tomorrow, for the third time from Samsung. No doubt they will of put the latest official firmware on it. Do I need to do anything in particular in regards to the knox warranty in flashing this rom again (I haven't had the S4 since early Dec when I had a bad flash from my SD Card with this rom and it corrupted the efs folder).

Or do I just use this and not void the warranty? I'm scared as hell about this now. Considering leaving the phone at stock without rooting after reading this - http://omegadroid.co/wanted-knox-void-warranty-0x1/ Just reading the comments below the omegadroid thread, it seems a lot of Samsung users won't be in a year or two's time.

I will be sad to say goodbye to the S2 I have been using too, great little phone with amazing battery life on cm 10.2. - 36hrs standby and 4 hrs screen on time. I also get a better download speed on the 3g network at home with the s2 surprisingly enough.

If it is a case of you cannot root without losing warranty, I may just sell the S4 on ebay and stick to the S2. A phone which has matured with flawless firmware that works really well with a battery life to match.

1. /data/apps if u look thro the updater-script, those apps can be uninstalled by the user hence why i placed those apk there in the first place

2. ur missing the main point of the script, the simplicity of the idea.. which is a user can edit it as they please .. if a basic user does not know the apks dependency of which lib is associated with that app.. and the script deletes that lib.. that would cause issues.. also leaving libs behind causes no performance difference .. or advantage on a set sized partition, freeing up that space does not change what the set partition size is for user apps.. hence why sammy introduced its form of apps2sd

3. there is no google earth apk in the rom ;)

my thinking.. simple is better .. i cant anticipate every users need n wants and experince level, there is no *perfect solution* to every scenario and no i dont like aroma install option :p
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] fljotavik:
In fact it's complicated satisfy all users needs. But i think that the core advantage of this ROM is yours clean profile. No crap apps, no themes, as slim as possible and super, super fast.

Libs Cleansing

Thanks morris2003 for bringing up the subject of Libs cleansing and iB4STiD for the candid responses. I use ROM CLEANER and it removed some 300MB of lib files associated with those apps that I had removed. Obviously there is a risk of issues if wrong libs were removed but the reward is a slimmer backup when you run the CWM backup. A dedicated SLIM version would also mean faster download for many people. iB4STiD has explained the reason for his strategy of having a remover script that user can edit themselves and I fully agree with him. For example the All Share Wifi Direct is a must have for me so I simply removed those entries from the delete script and all was well. If I had a Slim version I would have to download the whole crap-pack anyway to obtain those All-Share apps. Also I like the simple looks of ROM Stock and glad that iB4STiD has kept it that way. I use Xposed to do a few tweaks here and there and all is great. Thanks once again iB4STiD !

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] morris2003:
I think that you could do 2 versions:

- a version with applications samsung

- a lightened version without samsung apps, like all previous versions

The second version is derived from the first, removing all applications. in this way there would be a lighter version for download, and lighter without the applications.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gsmyth:
I think its best sticking with the latest setup iB4STiD has provided as you have the original untouched ROM that you can slim/tweak to your own liking. Hopefully this makes for a quicker/easier way for working on ROMs for [MENTION=1380660]iB4STiD[/MENTION], that way he'll be able to churn out the latest KitKat updates even faster than usual! ;) :D

Sorry guys i have a question about rom+modem:

In order to have a fully functional LTE connection, rom and modem version have to be the same?

Now i have GOLDENEYE ML6 18.2 and MKF modem and 3g/hspa+ works well.

I'm asking because the operator is slowly activating the 4g connection in the area and i want to be sure that my phone can auto

switch connection speeds without issues. Thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gsmyth:
If its working for you now, I would leave as is, you can download a copy of the ML6 modem at the link below. Then see how it goes once 4G is up and running, if you have issues you can update your modem via Odin.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] reand86:
Thanks for the advice!

I'm asking beacause some people report that 4G is active in small areas but yesterday i didn't have any 4G connection in these areas.

However it's better to flash the new modem to reduce possibility of issues.

is this modem for the old bootloader?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gsmyth:
Can you see the LTE option 'Network Mode' in the mobile network settings?

Its doesn't hurt to flash the matching modem, the ML6 is one of the latest ones (at the moment I think) and isn't tied to the ROM or bootloader as you can stay on an older modem and update your ROM as you are currently.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] reand86:
Ok i'll flash the ML6 one! The Network mode i think it's ok because is on LTE/WCDMA/GSM mode so it should auto switch if the network is available.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jokabbt:

[MENTION=1380660]iB4STiD[/MENTION]

Irie Man! ;)

I'm going to flash this new release of GOLDENEYE, 18.2.

I'm coming from 15 :)

I will do a full wipe so_

- clean to install a new rom?

or

- wipe data/factory reset

- wipe cache partition

- wipe dalvik cache

Do you think that i need to format something with philz recovery?

Then i will flash GOLDENEYE 18.2 and reboot out of recovery.

I will set up my gmail account, then reboot into recovery and i will flash slimf4st!

After this i will flash ML6 modem with ODIN.

I'm downloading now, can you confirm my way and advice me something to have the best result?

Tnx again for your amazing work!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gsmyth:
As per the OP, 'clean install only!', so wipe system, data, cache and dalvik, you shouldn't have any issues that way.

Remove from the updater script in the slimfast zip the below lines:

("/system/app/ChatONV_J.apk"); <<<Chat ON (can also be installed from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sec.chaton )

("/system/app/SamsungTTS.apk"); <<<Samsung TTS

("/system/app/SMemo2.apk"); <<< S Memo

Which Samsung app are you referring to? Samsung service.apk is the Samsung app store, the below apps belong to it so will probably be needed.

("/system/app/SamsungApps_J_Only.apk");

("/system/app/SamsungAppsUNA3.apk");

("/system/app/SamsungContentsAgent.apk");

("/system/app/Samsungservice.apk");

The below thread is useful as it has a list of system apps and their purpose. I would recommend browsing the ROM zip and extracting the system/app folder, so you have a backup. In the event of anything not working you can locate the required apk file and paste it into the /system/app folder with a root file browser.
