Yes, it's stock based and completely bloat and flesh free.. That's why it's called barebone ?

Nope, I'm not an expert.. That's the solution I have found during KitKat days on here. Our OP [MENTION=4648515]AL_IRAQI[/MENTION] helped me to learn few things in past and I'm just sharing what I learnt from him and XDA :)

Hello AL_IRAQI,

This is my first post here in XDA, just wanted to ask you if you can host V15 of the ROM somewhere other than BasketBuild, I've been trying for several days to download it with no success, and after doing it once the MD5 checksum was different:confused:, and I trashed the file.

just to confirm, this is the checksum for V15, right?:

Just as an experiment, I tried downloading an old version from Mega, and it downloaded in minutes.

Really looking forward to trying out my First LP rom, been rocking KK for too long.:fingers-crossed:

thanx

My friend I did that. But nothing results. My cellphone can go to deep sleep, in the night is always wakeup and my battery it's drained in the night without any use :/ and I have 3 deadlocks: 1013 (Audiomix) , *alarm* (from system android) and google play services

Can you give me another solution?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] satankid:
for 1013 wakelock disable lockscreen sounds and other touch sounds

for Google play services use lucky patcher and install modded google play store ver 5 something and in settings, say no update google play store...

if you cannot get lucky patcher then try using greenify donate version, you have to buy it ..it allows to hibernate system apks also

i am first time using this rom so after reading comments i have downloaded :

v14.5

v14.6

v15

some users are saying they are missing some features in v15 as compared to 14.5 or 14.6

so what u guys recommend me ? i should 1st use 14.5+14.6 for few days then upgrade to 15 or simply start with 15. i want to taste all the goodies of this rom and dont want to miss anything by flashing latest version.

so what to do ? i dont want to miss any feature and want a stable bug free rom with battery my main concern.

@AL_IRAQI

I reach UNKI' best comments:

quote:

AL_IRAQI, you're a genius.

This ROM is like a breath of fresh air.

unquote:

I don't know what people like to download and install 1.5 Gb+ files and then keep claiming that their phone is laggy and battery killer.

Your idea is very good because we get most of the basics S4 features available at start and then it's so easy to choose what is good for everybody likes and wishes.

What I changed upon my taste:

-GOOGLE music player . (much better free offer at the store)

-GALLERY. (Quickpick is better and offer a folder show up selection choice)

-VIDEO player. (too bad can't read a simple .mov file!)

- Added Synapse for mainly sound adjustments. and all my current personal stuffs.

THANKS again.

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] lolo9393:
Battery life is good (see my own results in post 413) But I got this satisfaction after let say 2 days of stabilization. In my case mediaserver and google services were requiring more battery in order to settle down.

I came from a well known big custom ROM and was using Adam kernel.

So no regret only satisfaction.

Test it yourself!

Can you please give app to replace Play Music or I should remove music player from the ROM ?

Saludos. Leí en algunos comentarios anteriores que es posible instalar esta versión en el PIT Chino, ahora bien. La pregunta que hago es porque nunca conseguí alguna información directa. Cómo hago para instalar ese archivo para la partición más corta de sistema, y en caso de querer volver a la partición normal, es posible hacerlo de manera segura? Muchas gracias!

Greetings. I read some previous comments that you can install this version on the PIT Chinese, however. The question I ask is because I never got any direct information. How do I install that file to the system partition shorter, and if you would return to normal partition, it is possible to do it safely? Thank you very much!
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] AL_IRAQI:

Hello, I would like to know your method of flashing this pit file, because I have flashed it many times -

Just the pit, pit + recovery, pit + cf-autoroot and always I end up with different internal storage sizes 8.79GB, 8.80GB, 8.92GB. (not respectively!)

I just want you to clarify if it affects performance of the phone in any way.

2. I am unable to restore my data from my Samsung Account. It's giving me an error "Failed to complete download due to network error."

Samsung sync is also not available. Although my network and wifi is working just fine.

Thank you for your awesome work AL_IRAQI. I wonder if there any way to properly remove 3Minit Battery App? I've tried to delete 3minit apk and after reboot ui was glitching and i had to re-flash rom.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] usernaem:
About your first point, I think I just installed SuperSU from the store. If I remember correctly it asks you to reboot in recovery and auto flashes the binary.

Also, I wanted to post about the following isue in case somebody has the same problem in the future (I saw in the thread a few other people did in the past but no solution was posted). It had been happening to me that I configured notification access in Options->Device->Sound and Notifications->Notification Access so that a few apps would be able to read my notifications, but every time I rebooted the phone the configuration were restored to the defaults, in which only GlanceViewMK had notification access and not the apps I configured.

I solved that by removing GlanceView from the system apps (/system/app/GlanceView/GlanceView.apk). Now the configuration stays and isn't restored to the default values when I reboot. So far I haven't had any problems but I think I read somewhere it has some function within Samsung apps so if you do it do it at your own risk.

I also noticed there was another app running and using bandwidth (internet) and I didn't know why so I decided to remove it as well. It was called WfdBroker. I also found it listed in a few lists of Samsung bloatware. Maybe it could be removed by default in the next update if it actually is bloatware?

Anyway, cheers and thanks for the ROM.

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] usernaem:
I think I remember reading that 3Minit is tied to the UI somehow and if you try to uninstall it it will break the UI, so first you have to flash the stock UI (it's somewhere in the thread, I downloaded it to put the clock back on the right side of the notification bar).

Where is the 3Minit app located? I also wanted to remove it but I couldn't find it (even tried $ find . -iname 3minit without luck), so I just disabled it from the app manager.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] jb369:

Updated Bootloader, still no cigar!

I read the first few posts a 100 time, how I missed the bootloaders section, i'll never know :eek:

Thanks for putting up with this level of Noobness, I flashed the

XXUHOB8 5.0

bootloader via odin and it was successful, I confirmed by running getprop ro.bootloader command in Terminal Emulator.

I tried flashing again (with the V15 fix.zip from post#2), and I'm still getting a black screen :crying:

Three things I'll have to mention, one or more might be relevant:

1) The MD5 checksum for the Rom zip I downloaded from MEGA was: 93B361DC161A0A04B458C805F0C342A6, I downloaded it twice on two different computers to be certain (PC and Mac), both returned the same checksum (PC via MD5_SHA checksum utility, and Mac via Terminal).

2) When flashing the Rom, it failed zip verification, so I left it unchecked.

3) I'm coming from another ROM (OmegaRom V19), running a custom kernel, here are the details:

the baseband still says MJ8, but when running Terminal Emulator, it shows XXUHOB8

So I'm thinking on upgrading from 4.4.2 to this rom, as aosp is still buggy, so mi question is

1.Any present bugs present, like no audio on calls or something like that?

2. Do I need to change the bootloader, to flash this or can I just do a backup, clear data, system, cache and flash barebone

3.is xposed working on this rom?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] zozoz13:
1. I'm not having bugs untill now

2. You can try flash the ROM first without update your bootloader and do full wipe before flash. If you have any problem like freezing sometimes, i reccomend you to update your bootloader.

3. No.

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] usernaem:
The checksum matches the one on my end, which is running fine, so 1) and 2) are okay. I've tried pretty much every ROM out there, Omega included (V27 though) and then went back to this one so 3) shouldn't be a problem either.

1. Not that I know of, but I'm not that much of a heavy user. Audio has yet to fail me. Call quality is very good, there isn't echo or noise.

2. As I understand, only change bootloader if you run into problems with the ROM. Otherwise I've only had to do as you say for every ROM I've tried, this one included, and I haven't had any problem.

3. No, Xposed doesn't work with TouchWiz (Samsung stock based) ROMs yet in Lollipop, unfortunately.
