I've been searching but I'm unable to find it. Is there a kernel available so I can use this on my M919. I'm using miui v5 android 4.2 tw based for the I9505 and all I needed was the kernel to use it. I was hoping to be able to do the same with this one. I'm using Adamkernel 1.6 with SU which is as stock as possible but has small tweaks for functionality.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] andreskafe:
Based TW or AOSP?

S4 - i9500
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] nycdrifter:
TW based

---------- Post added at 10:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 PM ----------

The only issue that I have are compatibles with certain bluetooth car audio systems is that the bluetooth handshake is buggy sometimes. I'm sure it's because the miui phone dialer doesn't fully support the head units ability to dial and look up contact look ups. But that's a miui issue not a kernel issue. Other than that it's 100% stable no force reboots or random crashes.

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] nycdrifter:
It will pretty much all gs4's are similar to the point where all we just need a stable kernel to run it. But this is based off of the I9500 firmware so we still can't get wifi calling for t-mobile to work.

[MENTION=4648515]AL_IRAQI[/MENTION] The only problem i am facing with this ROM is the storage issue. I flashed the sd fix zip too but no use. Internal or external storage is very slow when accessed. It takes lot of time to even open a folder. Please help me. Also if you notice, the torch app is kind of weird. It cannot be detected by any tool. The Chinese may be secretly stealing our data using few basic apps which we would normally think to be harmless like torch app for instance. If you can create a bare bone of the latest miui, that will be appreciable. Thanks.

Rom installation error (status 7) why???
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] D™:
Due to update script error
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] h6x:
ROM Script Error, Status 7.

You should first update your phone to 4.4 Kitkat via Odin or use any Kitkat Custom ROM.

Install CWM, TWRP doesnt work.

Then, Flash MIUI via CWM. everything should be fine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] pepebiondi:
1-Extract Recovery.img from the rom file, and put this file in the internal Sd.

2- Install Rashr, from Play Store. It's free.

3-Go to Rashr and flash Recovery.img .

4-Go to the new recovery and do the 3 wipes. DON'T FIRMAT SYSTEM.

5-Flash Miui v5 4.4. And GAPPS.

BINGO!

By the way, way the OP don't post on 1rst. post all the correct files that we need? I mean recovery, gapps (not the 4.2.2 one)... proper update-script.

Anyway. Once I sync my Google account, starts the freeze. Clean flash. Always, since october.

[fix] miui rebooting/freeze problem

The main problem who made MIUI v5 4.4 freezing/rebooting is Gapps 4.4. :(

So, do not flash any Gapps. :good:

Here is the quick guide how to proper install MIUI v5 4.4 Kitkat:

Make sure you have latest CWM Recovery (me using CWM v6.0.5.0)

Wipe/Data Factory Reset, Wipe Cache, Preload and Dalvik. Do not format SYSTEM

Flash MIUI ROM (latest version is 4.12.5)

Do not flash any Gapps

Flash sd_fix_4.4.zip (see Attachment)

Restart

Download and Install Google Installer from Market (or from here: http://en.miui.com/thread-3998-1-1.html)

Click one of the Google Apps, (like Contact Sync or Gmail) and you'll be directed into another page

Install these apps by order:

[+] Google Play Service

[+] Google Framework

[+] Google Account Manager

[+] Google Play Store

Note: If Google Play Store crashed, delete all the google apps and re-install them

(source: http://en.miui.com/thread-71339-1-1.html)

Update Google Play Service and other Gapps from Play Store.

Now, the bug should be gone. I had installed it for a couple days, no more freezing problem. :cool:

Tips for make MIUI v5 look like MIUI v6:

Download "MIUI v6" themes from Theme Apps.

Install WSM Tools. Enable Xposed Repository.

Search and download Tint Status Bar [BETA] and Anuer.

Now you have tinted status bar like MIUI v6 with extra organized layout on your status bar.

How i can install miui rom on arrow rom 16v ??
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Gboss01:
Google installer doesn't install, get a parse error or something like that.

I was really looking forward to going back to MIUI for a while but...

Really disappointed how MIUI has deteriorated since going to 4.4.2.

Freezing, random reboots and poor battery life.

MIUI 4.2.2 was way better and more stable.

I cant install the latest build.. I tried Flashing with TWRP but an error occured

"this is for ja3g devices this is a i9500"

can u please tell me how to solve this issue ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Gboss01:
You gotta use cwm recovery bud. Easiest way is to open the zip and copy the recovery.img to ur sdcard.

Download Rashr from the play store and use Rashr to flash the recovery.img

You should now have CWM and be able to flash the MIUI zip.

I hope this helps you
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] DanialYaqub:
Tried using CWM still getting this error "this is for ja3g devices this is a i9500"
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Gboss01:
What version of CWM are you using bud? I have had issues with newer versions before that's why I suggested using the recovery.img thats in the zip.

It's an older version, 6.0.3.6 if I remember correctly, but it works for installing MIUI every time.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] mobfest:
Can't I install with TWRP!!!! Is CWM must?

I want to install this ROM, need a few info:

1. Can it install with the TWRP recovery latest version?

2. Is CWM must, then plz suggest which version is required?

3. Does Swift Key Keyboard crashes on this ROM.

4. Does it support all the google apps promptly?

5. If an app is downloaded from Play store does it install quickly or does it fall into a downloading loop? Do the playstore installed apps work properly.

These queries are based on my past miui experiences. I love their work but fear the above. Plz could anyone clarify I looking to install v4.12.5. Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Gboss01:
1. It is possible to use TWRP but you have to edit the updater script in the zip. Personal preference on my part is to always install MIUI using CWM then use Flashr to restore TWRP once done.

2. I use the recovery.img thats insode the zip, it's v6.0.3.6 if I remember right

3. I haven't used swift keyboard with MIUI, I prefer the google material keyboard and just enable swipe.

4. It supports all google apps

5. I haven't had any issues downloading from the playstore

Bear in my mind I haven't used the latest version of MIUI as I found my device to freeze up randomly, even after using google installer to pull the play services, framework etc.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] DanialYaqub:
can u give me a link to that MIUI rom which works fine on ur phone ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Gboss01:
I don't have MIUI on my phone anymore but I still have an old zip of 4.11.7 and that seems to work well on my phone.

You can get 4.11.7 HERE.

I would suggest using the gapps in THIS THREAD as they are OTA update safe.

I hope this helps bud :)

MIUI v4.12.5

Have u tested this out, I was told that it is the latest. Any clue on MIUI v6. Is it daily driver. Can I use it, hope it's a lollipop.

Thanks

Mobfest
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Gboss01:
I have tried using TWRP but it doesn't work to flash MIUI unless you edit the updater script.

I doubt MIUI v6 will be Lollipop as v6 on Xiaomi devices is still on kitkat.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] mobfest:
How is v4.12.5

Is v4.12.5 a daily driver?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Gboss01:
I tried the latest version a week or 2 ago and it kept freezing on me. I followed someone's advise from an earlier post and used Google installer to setup my gapps but I had the same issues still.

But give it a try and let us know. I always liked MIUI but I can't use it with the freezing problem :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] nycdrifter:
The updater script is a little tricky trying to modify it I'm having issues flashing is even after I removed the phone model check in it
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Gboss01:
This is why I just flash the cwm recovery.img from the MIUI zip. That recovery always works.

You can use RashR in the playstore to flash the recovery
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] nycdrifter:
That's a good idea but I'm not sure if it will work because I'm using the m919 I'll try it when I get off work.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] RubbaBand:

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] pepebiondi:

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Gboss01:
This version of MIUI will not work with your model m8. This zip, with the right recovery, can only be flashed on the i9500 exynos version of the S4.

You have a M919 T-Mobile i9505 S4, completely different chipsets bud, you risk possibly hard bricking your device :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] D™:
If you want to flash the same package just remove 1st line with j3ag model number and the line which is containing "ifelse" condition. that might be 2nd or 3rd line. you may flash the ROM there after.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Gboss01:
But he's got a i9505 S4, surely this ROM won't work on his phone D..
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] nycdrifter:
The rom will work the kernel may or may not. That's what I'm doing on miui v5 jelly bean based right now. It's made for I9500 I just swapped out kernels so the WiFi will work. WiFi is the only chipset other than the radio which is ran by the modem that is different.

Hello Miui users.

I've installed Miui (several times) a couple of days ago and i've enjoyed the experience. Its customization is beyond everything i've seen in any other rom. The firewall, the looks, the battery like, etc, it rocks! But, the default launcher stutters when i open any folder, go to desktop settings screen, etc. Anyone experiencing this?

I'm using the latest version for the GT-I9500, 4.12.5.

I've tried other launchers, and not a single one of them is as slow as the default launcher, but i really like the default launcher features, like the swipe up/down in notes and music icon and i don't want to lose this.

Is there a way to solve this lag?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] mckalyster:
not on my mine.

do a clean install

by the way i'xm still using it
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] pintasmapila:

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] pintasmapila:
Just out of curiosity, which version are you using?

Thank you.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] mckalyster:
I'm using th version from official website MIUI V5 4.12.5.

At first I had issues (freezes when phone gets hot, reboots anytime...) installing the latest straight. after that I did a clean install with 4.10.31 then with through the updater to 4.12.5. now i'm ok;

Only one thing. I should mention is that I started using MIUI since Since V4 and it was better than ever. now with the base off KK it has got a little bit bad.

Anyway i'm still using it because of the features: auto sms backup, call history backup, auto cloud for pics and music, and the best part is the most beautyfull is the colorful android.:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::p:angel::p:angel:

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] D™:
