where do you guys get Xposed from? Seems like not many have a version that supports 5.1 yet. Also which GAPPS do you guys use? I am about to completely wipe my phone including internal storage and give this rom another shot. Every time I install a rom it ends up going to crap within a week then gets worse as time goes on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
I'm also interested in the source for Xposed we should use. As for GAPPS, as I mentioned a few posts up, there's no need for one. It comes with GooglePlay, and you can download everything else from there.

I wiped my phone completely, updated it's firmware to OH3 (double flash in ODIN), ran it on stock for a few hours (Camera got a firmware update on first use within OH3 stock!), then rewiped everything, installed TWRP, and flashed this ROM clean. I'm one week in, and loving it. Great battery life and everything works.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] doat:
do you have to do all of that to update the modem to OH3?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
Well, there are two modem files. The modem.bin (GSM modemwhich can be flashed independently) and the non-hlos LTE one that is tied to the bootloader. I ran an MDL version firmware (with MDL non-hlos LTE modem) and the NB4 GSM modem for a long time; you can mix and match. You can't really mix and match the non-hlos file with the boot loader. I decided to bring everything current, as "Knox" has no meaning for my old phone warranty wise.

To update firmware, all you have to do is flash it via ODIN. IT's best practice to double flash it (uncheck reboot in Odin, flash the firmware, pull the battery, boot directly back to download mode, then flash again... after that reboot normally) because many people have reported partial flashes or other oddities doing a single flash; some parts aren't available to be overwritten the first time but after the first flash they are available. Only takes a few extra minutes.

I noticed while running on OH3 that my camera firmware was updated first time I opened the camera app (I got a message box pop up telling me it was happening) so I recommend exercising all systems from within stock for just a little while to make sure all is well (and download Phone Info Samsung to make sure everything reports being oh OH3). Then go ahead and wipe and flash whatever ROM you want.

I strongly recommend a process like the above; there might be shorter ways to accomplish it but the above process is a never fail.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] doat:
What are the improvements for updating the modem? I am still on MK2.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
I don't have visibility to specific differences in the modems. I assume the gradual tweaks are for the better. Mostly I wanted to be up to latest everything because I assume the ROM devs are using systems that are mostly current and I wanted parity with them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadykhoff:
You can get Xposed from the official thread here. You'll want the attachments titled "xposed-v74-sdk22-arm.zip" and "XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk" from the first post in that thread.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] NinjaDeathMonk:
I'm not having that problem. Is the SD card mounted? Do you have problems with the SIM card? The S4 is notorious for having the SIM card disconnected. The SIM card slot and the SD card slot are in the same module and it can be problematic.

Hello.

I'm on galaxy s4 i3337M - jfltecan.

Current modem : i337mvlug0h1 (latest)

this rom, build jflte-gpe-20150919.zip

I think this is only cosmetic :

bug :

Carrier name does not show (no service)

calls come through (I think)

SMS come through

Need logs?

_________ calls work
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] NinjaDeathMonk:
That happens to me occasionally after a reboot but everything works fine. Just go into airplane mode for a second then turn off the airplane mode. It should display the carrier name then.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tidhar:
I just noticed Ambient Display is missing. I had it before on other roms, is there a reason it's not included?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
This morning the ROM had an update waiting for me. I forgot to take a screen capture of the particulars. I was surprised; didn't think this thing would do auto updates. It was only ~24 MB so I said, sure, let it D/L and reboot. It rebooted to TWRP. Not sure if it applied the update or not. Rebooted to system with no problem.

Any idea what this security update is about? More StageFright stuff?

Edit: It is telling me about the update again so I guess it didn't apply through TWRP automatically. It says the update is:

LMY470.S008 => LMY470S008.151001

Other than mentioning it addresses "the security vulnerability" there are no details. Google gives me this XDA hit:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=63349301#post63349301

Which looks just to be a unified version of the GPE ROM thread. Digging through the last page or two suggests the update is a Stagefright patch. But I'm not sure how to apply it... or if it is safe to do so on our modd'ed version of the GPE.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubardo:
Didnt install it. Press the notifications unil it give you the i and click it then unchek notification for google service.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] NinjaDeathMonk:
That update notification is from Google/Samsung for the unrooted Google Play Edition of the S4. This ROM still gets the official notifications. You can download, attempt to install it and reboot, but it won't do anything because it's not compatible with TWRP. Dan updated in another thread:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] m52 power!:
Where can I download the unrooted STOCK google play edition rom? I have JFLTE on a friends phone that doesn't use root and just wants to install official updates and not worry about TWRP etc...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] pclov3r:
If you don't have the google play s4 official updates will not work. Also applying the stock image from it to a non Google play s4 will probably brick it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] WangChung81:
I noticed a lot of extra features are gone:

Matierial Dark Theme

Built in AdAway

Extended power/reboot menu

Optional Camera Apps

Is this intentional?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AnimusVoxx:
so i keep getting a notification telling me an update is available so i download it and tell it to install, but then it reboots into twrp and does nothing, where does the zip download to so i can just install in manually, or is there something im doing wrong?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] NinjaDeathMonk:
This version of the ROM is made from scratch and those features haven't been added yet, if ever. It's up to Dan.

You should read the recent posts. In short, that update notification is from Google/Samsung for the official Google Play Edition of the S4. It won't install because it's not compatible with TWRP.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
Right. Like it said a few posts up, hold the notification (long press it), then when the (I) and gear icons come up, go into the settings and turn off google notifications. Works a treat.

Phone Reboots on Incoming Call?

Hi Guys,

I'm having an issue where the phone reboots whenever I get an incoming call. No other issues. I can make outbound calls no problem. Any idea what could be causing this? Before I installed this ROM I flashed the latest official firmware to get the latest modem and unfortunately locked bootloader.. then wiped that and came to this. I've wiped data and cache/dalvik too, this was a completely fresh install. Does anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this, and how I might fix it?

I'm in no rush- I do IT support, so it's neat to have all my calls go to voicemail.. haha.

Thanks for whatever help you can provide.

I didn't think Knox was much of a big deal other than making sure you're not lying about software changes for warranty purposes, have I completely misunderstood it ?

Yeah. You can ignore Knox unless you want to do a warranty claim or run a small set of security applications.

Thanks for the ROM. Just installed JFLTE-GPE-20151021.zip from OH3 stock. Everything looks good except I like to see the pattern screen when pressing the power button. Is there any way to restore that? Also, having a hard time getting used to the built-in dialer. Not sure if I'll grow into it. I'll try out the ROM today and decide whether to continue or revert back to stock. Could anyone take the trouble of listing the advantages of this ROM over stock. I do understand that it has virtually no bloatware which is nice. Also "OK Google" appears on every home screen which is nice too if I decide to use it. Comments/suggestions appreciated
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
Hi [MENTION=4843136]flroots[/MENTION],

I used the September version of this for a month before breaking my S4 (cracked screen) and moving to an LG G3 as my daily driver phone.

For me, the main advantages were:

-No more Touchwiz; I prefer the stock Google version of the Android interface

-Massively debloated so I didn't have to clean anything up that I didn't want there

-Incredible stability compared to prior KitKat based ROMs I was running

-Faster... zippier, interfaced better with my car's Bluetooth than the prior kitkat ROM.

The only downside was that Angry Birds 2 was a bit laggy.

You mentioned the OK Google stuff. You can get that by switching to the Google Now launcher on whatever ROM you're on, or stock. I have it on my G3 as the default home screen/launcher. It's the preloaded one on the GPE ROM of course, but you can d/l it from the play store and run it on any ROM, be it stock or custom.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Thanks. That helps. Did you happen to compare battery life between stock and gpe? Here are my requirements from most to least important:

1. Stable (bug free)

2. Long Battery life

3. Good performance

4. Minimal Bloatware​
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
I can't say I compared battery life between stock and PE, but I noticed a VERY significant improvement going from my "year old" installation of SlimKat (on top of MDL firmware) (which had accumulated all kinds of junk along the way) to this GPE (on top of OH3 firmware).

This GPE, though ported to our T-Mobile S4 since there is no T-Mo lollipop GPE, is taken from a similar model phone and is well optimized. Frankly, I would bet it is well nigh impossible to do better battery wise, without going in and doing kernel level stuff (underclocking etc.) at risk of instability and other issues.

I moved up to the GPE specifically to get away from KitKat (my other devices are all lollipop) and to resolve several bug-type-things that persisted in the old SlimKat build... I had things like camera freezing up that were vestiges of the time in which I flashed the phone, a year ago. I never ran this phone stock for any length of time, as the loud annoying T-mo boot sequence and super bloat of stock turned me off. In fact I bought the T-mo version specifically so I could go ROM hopping easily; I use the ATT network but ATT phones are bootloader-locked.

Before I flashed the GPE, I did a double-flash of the OH3 stock firmware to ensure all modems and stuff were updated. In fact, I ran the stock for a few hours, and exercised the phone thoroughly with it. I noticed on first use of the camera, it updated its own firmware from within OH3 stock. Just took a couple seconds, then the message cleared and all was well. After a few hours I then reflashed TWRP, wiped EVERYTHING including factory data reset, system, caches, EVERYTHING. Then flashed the GPE. Didn't look back since, and was planning to keep the phone until spring.

I went from having to recharge the phone in the late afternoon, to having 35 % battery left at the end of the day. In the month I used it significantly, I only had two random reboots, both during angry birds 2 which as I mentioned seemed laggy.

Based on your requirements, I'd say the GPE is the ticket.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] diebyme:
[MENTION=4843136]flroots[/MENTION]

The big things for me are:

Lack of bloatware (I have a t-mo phone on ATT also)

Stability, including all of the bluetooth functionality

Battery life

So far, this ROM has been rock solid and I've been streaming Pandora over Bluetooth every time I've been in the car since at least last Thursday.

I would recommend giving it a few days and see how you like it overall, a lot of what you're seeing as "different" is really dropping the Samsung customization.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] HampTheToker:
I've been running Dan's GPE for a long time. I've ran lots of roms both TW and GPE for great lengths of time, but I think this one probably tops the rest. Danvdh and Kryten know what we want and deliver consistently.

If only OEMs and carriers could update like Danvdh, then Android would really be in business.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Thanks for the helpful comments [MENTION=2556762]HampTheToker[/MENTION], [MENTION=3674461]diebyme[/MENTION], and [MENTION=5882292]Frankenscript[/MENTION]. I'll continue on with gpe for awhile. My big issue is that my wife also has the M919 still running 4.4.4 OH3 stock. I want to keep them the same, but I need to convince her that gpe has significant advantages before she will agree to the upgrade. Guess her motto is, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". BTW, we both use Cricket running off the AT&T towers. If I could show there was a significant battery savings that would do it since she frequently runs her battery down. Wonder what would be a good quantitative battery test.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flroots:
Could someone explain the changes that are required to convert the Galaxy S4 GPE (I9505G) ROM to one that is compatible with the M919? I'm specifically interested in compatibility related changes as opposed to those that add custom features such as rooting.

I think I read that the kernel and modem remain untouched which, I guess, helps ensure compatibility with each carrier. Are there other changes required to ensure compatibility? The reason I ask this is to hopefully give me added confidence that this ROM will be stable and reliable going forward.

For example the changelog lists

Why does a bug like this exists since the hardware of the I9505G and M919 should be indentical with respect to the home button?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Sherrillface:
Anyone know a volume mod that works with latest build maybe a link thanks?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] diebyme:

flash to latest stock release to get the latest modem

Reboot to Download Mode

Flash twrp

Reboot to Recovery

Flash the 5.1 build from the first post

Reboot

Go through Setup

Launch Play store and start downloading apps I needed

After flashing, About Phone -> Model Number shows it as an I9505G, model number under the batter still says it's a m919 though :)

Is there any reason in particular you want to keep both phones on the same release/version ?
