I might consider moving back to stock rom cause I still can't find a solution for moving apps to sd card :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jjwatmyself:
Flashed on top of the previous 5.1 and all appears to be good. Thank you VERY much for the update. :)

I have a small wish list.

Features that were part of the 5.0 rom:

- Clear all recents

- Downloadable wallpaper

Features that were not part of the previous roms:

- Audio over micro usb (used with dock and supported on touchwiz)

Last week I started getting "Updating Camera Firmware, please wait.." at completely random times. Sometimes it flickers, sometimes it stays there for a while and disappears, but always comes back. I've cleared the cache and dalvik (while dirty flashing latest release, working great so far otherwise) but this issue still persists.

Google camera and Camera51 work fine.

Dialing *#7412365# or *#34971539# doesnt do anything, *#*#34971539#*#* just disappears and fails to enter camera firmware menu.

Any suggestions?

I am running the 10/21/15 build and its really stable, battery is great and its snappy enough!

The only problem is the video stuttering. Video is 100% unwatchable on any app that I've used (Youtube, Chrome, Netflix). If that issue can be fixed I'd be able to keep the S4 for at least another 6 months!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] superspacey:
I did a clean install of 10/21/15. Videos on youtube seem to be all green but the audio works.

-Spend some money and buy Foldermount and Link2Sd

-learn some linux

No unfortunately you can only use ROMs that are compatible with SafeStrap.

Back on this ROM and I dont know why I ever left. I had been on 2 others and NFC was very unreliable so I thought it was hardware related. Works great on GPE. Glad to be back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
Thank God I received a new GS4 as a gift (is not that new though :P ). Rapidly I went to Odin to flash the device while the brand new update of this amazing ROM was downloading. In no more than 15 minutes I had my device rooted, with TWRP installed through their app and the amazing GPE ROM flashed. My surprise was great when I saw how much this ROM has improved in these few weeks of abscence. Is running smoother than ever. Netflix and Youtube stutter-lag-freezing is gone!!!! I know some thay the OTA will work, but that doesn't rest any of the amazingness of this ROM. Thanks DEV for being such a responsible dev. If I was able to send some nice tequila shots from Mexico I gladly would!!!! Have a nice day
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jjwatmyself:
Just a quick note that with Xposed for lollipop and gravity box, I have 'clear all recents' again along with a hand full of other basic but useful tweaks.

Hi thread, I recently got a persistent notification to update rom that contains Nov 2015 security patches, are you guys installing this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
Don't install anything because you can get a brick or malfunction. Better wait to dev to release proper update

Hi,

Can I use this rom on my I337 with below build details -

Android - 5.0.1

Baseband - I337UCUGOC3

I remember using FlashFire last time to flash the 5.0.1 rom. What will be the steps to flash this one, if I can?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
Not that I know...when dev releases updates the notification ends :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
I dont have the knowledge in order to say if this or that base band are compatible. All I can say is that I have a SGH-I337M from Telcel provider in Mexico. The most important thing I have read is that you need the Canadian-Rogers release. That is exactly the model I have, but I guess there should be another Canadian basebands. Excuse I can't 100% respond your question. Good day.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cantenna:
I'm using this rom on baseband OH1 i377M

I couldn't get Xposed to work, as it got stuck on boot screen and would not work. I know its not supported, but which one did you install on the GPE to work.

The installer and un installer I use are in this folder of Drive I uploaded for You: https://drive.google.com/folder/d/0B4v5VjPnd26WZG9UODlreXUweTQ/edit

Just download the apk and installer, then flash only the installer zip (keep the uninstaller at your sd just in case) and enjoy
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jjwatmyself:
I'm using XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk / xposed-v75-sdk22-arm.zip

Same issue doesn't boot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
Then I don't know which is the cause of your issue with Xposed. Mine is working fine....sorry!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] arbitarytwist:
Thanks for the reply appreciate it. Mine is an i337m, not sure if that matters anyways.

issues with video playback
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] drew_t:
Will OP release another update for all the security fixes in the stock rom updates?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
As far as I know OP (Dev) is working hard in this ROM. For example, we used to have OTA updates which are not working since upgrade from 5.0 to 5.1. I read he worked like 1 year in 5.0 version so it was super polished. Now with the update to 5.1 some of the best features such as OTA (which also included options for downloading different tweaks, such as dark themes etc.) will come sooner or later. About the security updates, there has been one in the latest version (October 21st). You can follow Dev in Github to see the progress which is almost an update per month.

For video issues, specially in Youtube, you just have to open the video in vertical mode, wait some seconds and then change to horizontal view. In Netflix I haven't had any issue so I can't say. In Facebook, the preview mode of the videos is always stuttering so I guess there is no fix for now, but when opening the video it plays normally, so no problem with that.

Good day.

Anyone who came from CM12 over to Dan's GPE, did you have to change anything on your phone to flash the ROM? I remember coming from the 5.0 GPE over to CM12.1, and needing to change build.prop because my device was listed as something other than jflteatt. Wasn't sure if anything needed tinkered with or not.

video issues apparently resolved on their own.

have issue where apps notification. don't get shown while pulling down on notification area.

is there a link for a 5.1.1 custom kernel?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duckredbeard:
I installed this ROM on my GS4 before I turned it over to my wife. Clean install. Even wiped the internal. She has gotten an update notification, saying that there is a newer build, 2Nov. Haven't seen any update posted here. Is it an OEM update being pushed?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
The updates are only via this post or github. The OTA app is not working right now. And the one you said is the Google official release they are doing time to time so DON'T INSTALL IT
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duckredbeard:
How do I block the ota?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
I dont know. The ROM is a GPE one, so Google servers dont make a difference between original stock roms and this one..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cantenna:
Just uncheck show notifications under Google play services.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danielhammons1:
Sorry to add this here but I'm pretty much at a dead end..

Okay I have had this rom for well over a year and never had any issues, even with xposed.. Until now. And it's not like a problem that has been around I've had this Rom, xposed, and my modules installed for 7 months or so, never an issue everything perfect. Never added anything. But all of a sudden my interface changed, all the things changed with gravitybox and xuimod were gone, the lockscreen module I have still works fine, xposed additions pro works fine, xui seems to work fine but the list view animations won't show up as well as anything else (ime animations, battery bar mod etc) and gravitybox won't even open... I've looked and searched and I've found nothing... It's driving me crazy because I have worked on all that forever and it's all just back to stock and I despise it. Especially whenever things were just fine and with no changes or anything it just quit working...

I have already tried

Unchecking all modules and rebooting, re-checking, uninstalling modules and installing, even completely removed xposed and reinstalled, cleared everything I could think of and fresh installs on all. But still the same thing. I'm at a dead end.

If anyone can please help me that would be amazing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
Have you tried to uninstall Xposed and avoid reinstall, then make full wipes, reboot, etc?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danielhammons1:
I was actually trying to avoid having to do any wipes considering I don't have the rom downloaded at the moment, I need to do that next I guess. I was hoping someone had a similar experience because it was just out of nowhere and I've never heard of that happening all of a sudden.

But I guess that's the only thing left to try.

Thanks man your the only reply I've gotten!

Maybe that will do it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
No problem dude. In fact, developer recommends to always make full wipe (clean install) of the ROM and also every update as they are released. I used to install updates of this rom without wipes (dirty flash) and almost always encountered problems or bad performance. That is why is super recommended to have the latest ROM version in the external SD card, as well as all your Xposed zip files in order to make any wipes as needed.

The great advantage of this ROM is that it lets us make real backups of all the installed apps, so whenever I reinstall it or update it with total wipe, I always say YES to the "restore backup copy" option prompted by the typical initial configuration. Then I just let the system auto download and install all apps by itself all night long (I have several apps for work).

Have a nice day
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danielhammons1:
That's awesome man, and I'm gonna go ahead and install the new version of this rom I finally got it downloaded.

Quick question by the way, I have the 3.0 alpha 2 apk of xposed installer(is this the correct one still, I have the galaxy s4 i337, but it says i995 now)

And after I clean flash the rom do I just flash the xposed arm file? I still have the same version from last time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
The apk installer is the one you will find at the play store. The zip files of the mod are V74-Sdk22-arm.zip and uninstaller 20150831-arm.zip

At least those are the ones that work with my SGH i337m which now has "changed" to i995. But don't worry is still a i337m. Hope it helps
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danielhammons1:
What exactly were you saying was on the play store?

I downloaded the files you uploaded to Google Drive and it's the v74-sdk22 like you said, and the xposed installer 3.0 alpha 4. I wasn't thinking that now after I go to 5.1 I'd have to use a different sdk version and everything. But would you recommend a clean install of the rom and then to install the sdk 22 arm immediately or let the phone boot first then flash xposed and lastly install the xposed 3.0 alpha 4 apk?

My phone is a i337 not the i337m like yours though. Shouldn't make a difference though
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
I can only recommend what has worked for me. What I did was: 1. Saving ROM and Xposed modules at my SD an never erase them (except when a new update of the ROM comes, I substitute the one previously saved at the SD). 2. Full wipe (but make shure you have your backup configuration ON, so after flashing it will auto download your apps) 3.Flash amazing ROM :P 4.Let system reboot and make initial config and let apps auto download 5. Install Xposed APK from Playstore 6. Flash Xposed module 7. Reboot 8. Done

Hope it works

About system UI problems:

-Have you seen some strange reboots lately?

-Have you had some forced auto update where the system forces the initial installation of files (1 of XXXX number of files after auto reboot) ??

-Have you noticed less performance with demanding games (Fifa UT 15 for example) ??

I do, and I dont know why. I dont know if its because with time one start to install more and more apps, or because Android systems requiere a full wipe time to time ¿¿?? Can wiping only cache fix some of this issues? I will try it out but it would be great to hear if someone else is having similar issues. Have a happy new year you all!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ClipTy:
So I really need to ask this. Is this Cyanogenmod or is it still TW? I thought SGH-i337s couldn't run anything but TW. I really want to try this rom but I'm nervous to flash it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
Mine is I337m so about your i337s I'm on t sure
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ClipTy:
Sorry I meant i337.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] fivelitre:
So, I finally took the plunge and got xposed on my phone while running this ROM. For anyone interested, I got the xposed-v79-sdk22-arm framework and then the 3.0 installer and it's been working fine so far, took a bit longer to boot up but haven't ran into any issues so far.

With that being said, what are some "must haves" for xposed? In the past I always used Gravitybox/wanam, but not sure if either of those are especially necessary while using this ROM. Anyone have any modules that they would say work well paired with this ROM?

Thanks in advance!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danielhammons1:
I have the files you uploaded and the new version of the rom, I normally do things without question but when it's sketchy I gotta check lol

I'm still confused about one thing though, well two.

1. I see no xposed installer on the play store, there's nothing on there on my end. (link maybe?)

2.and where is the backup option? It's always done it for me automatically.

But if you can send the link to the play store that would be awesome I've checked a million times..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
Here is an apk from official devs http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danielhammons1:
Thanks for all the help man.

I usually download from there, but since there are specifics on which phone runs which xposed, which arm to flash etc I wasn't sure which to use. I currently have xposed 3.0 alpha 2, would you think it would make a difference if I switch?

I know those versions aren't alpha, but since this is lollipop I assumed it was still the one to use (whichever version)

Which version do you use, considering its the same phone I think I'd go with whatever you have man.

Thanks again
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] fivelitre:
Hey Daniel,

I know you were talking to duendemago but figured I'd reply and see if it's any help at all. For me (I was using a 1337m for Rogers in Canada which now says my model is GT-19505G.

I flashed the xposed-v79-sdk22-arm.zip through recovery, and then once my phone booted back up I installed XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk through the ES File Explorer.

xposed-v79-sdk22-arm.zip can be found here http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3580244&d=1450386592

XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha4.apk can be found here http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3383776&d=1435601440

And the uninstaller here (always good to have just in case) http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3458222&d=1441050128

Once I did those two it worked for me and has been working since without any issues. I did originally do it wrong and got stuck in a bootloop, but using the uninstaller fixed that issue for me. I'm sure I'm no where near as technologically savvy as most people in here, but if you have any questions I'll try to help!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danielhammons1:
It's all good man, and thanks!

I'm actually pretty good at these things, but if I'm not sure of something I research, check and recheck to make sure.

Like the chart showing what xposed arm to use, and for what version makes perfect sense but it doesn't say which xposed installer to use.

I'm sure that wouldn't cause a bootloop or anything but idk I want to be sure.

But I appreciate it man!

I gotta flash this rom first, been backing up everything

Ever since my 64gb Microsd messed up (was full also) I've been struggling with low memory so once that's done I can get the rom installed, then xposed.

And what's the difference in v74 and v79 sdk 22?

I know he was using 74 but you said 79 worked for you man.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] fivelitre:
I don't think there's a big difference in which xposed installer to use. On that forum topic it only lists the one (3.0 alpha 4) so I figured that was just the most stable/newest one.

For me and my bootloop incident, I think it was mostly just me being an idiot and not reading everything through the first time (at least it was smart of me to have the uninstaller on my sd card). But originally I had used the link that was posted here for v74 and that's what put me in a bootloop for one reason or another, so once I uninstalled that and tried the v79 version, it went without any issue. Granted it did take a bit longer to boot up the first time.

And again, I think the v74/v79 is just the versions and the higher the number the more recent it is. On the xposed forum it only shows 79 now and not 74. Though that being said they do have sdk 23 up, but for one reason or another, I chose sdk22, no idea why!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Danielhammons1:
Well I was out of the loop for a bit so I missed some information on here and it's hard to search through the threads to find one thing sometimes especially whenever it's not in the op.

But anyway that makes sense, and the sdk is pretty important from what I've read, the sdk21 is if your on 5.0 and if your on 5.1 it's sdk 22, so it's good you chose 22 lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mattgyver:
If your i337 is on the old bootloader (ending in MDB or MDL), then you can run non-TW ROMs. If you upgraded your S4 with a carrier OTA update (or if you bought it after a certain timeframe?), then the bootloader was updated, and you will have to rely on Safestrapped ROMs, which are all TW-based.

Easiest way, IMO, to check bootloader would be to install the CPU X app, and scroll down on the initial page to where it shows 'bootloader'. If it shows anything newer than MDL, you'll need to read up on Safestrap. It's definitely a different beast...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] KazeMurasaki:
Thanks guys, with your clear explanation on what takes to get Xposed up and running, I'm now happily updated to 5.1 with running Xposed and all the goodies that made me hold back when the OP released 5.1. It's great that people like you are still keeping this thread alive. I find this is the best ROM for our S4 if one is looking for great battery life and stability, while Xposed can take care of the rest.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] duendemago:
Yes this is also the best ROM for s4 in my opinion. I hope we can see some fresh update sooner than later (for example, we miss the option of closing all open apps at once after long pressing middle button and also the OTA app)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] KazeMurasaki:
I might be wrong, but I imagine the OP has long ditched his S4 for a newer phone, so those updates may or may not be on their way. Personally, I feel that my S4 with this ROM and Xposed is a pretty decent combo, and any device packing more power under the hood would be an overkill for me and my needs right now. I really dig the curved screen of the S6 and the slim shape of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, but I know they can't do that much more than my custom setup, hence I'm not itching for a new phone at this point. With this being said, I hope that my S4 won't give up on me for at least a couple more years, and any updates and added goodies till that day comes would be more than welcome.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] fivelitre:
I just did a clean install of this ROM since my phone was having some issues (keyboard not working, telling me programs weren't responding, no room, etc.) And all is fine now, except for one thing. When I pull down from the top of my phone (to bring up notifications/quick settings) I get a large dark grey bar covering the top part of my notifications so that I can't read them. It's like the screen that holds the quick settings (wifi/bluetooth/airplane mode/flashlight/etc.) is longer than it should be and due to this is blocking out whatever notification is on top. Anyone had this before and know how to fix it?
