[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] DevinQuigley:
So this is totally stock GPE?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
yes but I removed crap that's available in the playstore, I added cLock from CM, Xposed and Gravitybox, something else I forget, nothing major

I also ship in my opinion the best kernel available for our phone, ktoonsez latest

other then that, ART works fine because I left the ROM odexed

NOTE: YOU MUST DISABLE XPOSED TO ENABLE ART, ONCE ART IS ENABLED YOU CAN RE-ENABLE XPOSED
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] epsix:
What's ART? and how to enable it? :confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
it's in developer settings

It's the new Android Run Time that replaced dalvik probably next major release

seems like most of the major apps support it now, so test it out if you want
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
How do you enable and disable xposed? I only see install and uninstall.

If I install exposed when art is enabled and reboots it goes back to delvik.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
I second that about home button lag fix.

I had a zip file for 4.3 that fixed the lag time from home button to launcher. I'd also donate but 20$ for that .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
Pie controls > pressing the home button

see my 2nd post...

as for the zip, can you upload it so I can see what the dev did? I see the slight intended lag from Samsung, never really bothered me tho
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
I have no idea how to upload it.I can send it to you email.pm me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flying_pigs:
In stock tw roms the lag is cause due to a setting in svoice.

In ge roms the buttons are just mapped incorrectly.

Basically the home button needs to not have ANY action on double tap. Android waits for the possible double tap which causes the delay.

Holding down the home button should bring up recent apps.

Then the menu button held down should bring up search.

Back doesn't need to do anything but some people use it to kill the last running app.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] farfromovin:
Are you sure? My ART sticks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flying_pigs:
There's no way xposed is running if art works.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
I thought I read you just need disable xposed to switch to ART and then you can enable again (uninstall in xposed installer and reboot)

I dunno, I personally feel ART is very very good but it's not QUITE ready yet. Titanium backup was working last night though! I haven't played with it much
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] farfromovin:
*edit* you are correct! ART is disabled anytime xposed is running.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] laureanop:
This setting in gravity box helps quite a bit with the lag (disable double tap)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] asimons81:
Facepalm.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
Faux just contacted me on twitter

building a ROM now ;)

oh it's with faux kernel for all those users who have phones that reject KT kernel
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flying_pigs:
Ugghhhhhhh.

Then I can't use ART.

First world problems, lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
UPDATE IN THE OP

Faux GE stock 4.4 kernel

MMS with quick reply

Like I said before, if you uninstall the xposed framework in xposed installer and reboot and then enable ART, it will work. once you are rebooted enable xposed and reboot again

let me know if that works, if not we are waiting on an xposed updated ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] fizic:
I have a problem with this rom. I did everything just like described, however after flashing it keeps losing signal. it works fine for couple minutes and then "no signal", picks up signal again for couple minutes and loses again. in "no signal mode" I cannot make calls ("not registered on the network" error), however I can receive calls, which is odd. has anybody experienced this kind of problem? pls help

p.s. i'm currently running m919uvuamdl baseband (modem).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] johnny crapple:
You need the mdk modem
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] matthewdavis:
Sometimes I have to select the post below. I think ad blocker is screwing with the xda app. Haven't tested for sure.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] a103:
Go to Settings - Security and select Enable Widgets.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] byron1985:
When you change something it kt tweaker it changes it but when you reboot it goes away and reverts to stock settings. Its so you don't boot loop. If you are happy with your modified settings you can set it so they change on boot its a setting on the main page.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Apostle:
I have it set to apply my settings 10 seconds after boot but I always get asked those 2 questions no matter what.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] RBalber:
Noticed a slight issue in the latest build, not sure if this ties to the inverted phone or not. I'm getting stacked options while in call settings > voicemail. Noticed when I tried to change carrier to Google voice. At first I thought it was because I dirty flashed but tried again on a clean flash same issue.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Apostle:
Weird... I'm not getting that.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mrgonzodad:
Edit: Dan beat me to it lol.

Also- when I exit out of the Facebook app using the back button, my dialer pops up, then switches to the app drawer. Been like that since I began using this rom, across builds going back to early December. I dirty flashed a few times, but have done clean installs on the the last 2, if not 3 builds. Anyone else have this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
that would be a facebook thing, one of the worst written apps on the market haaha

will get the update out tonight, extremely busy
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] shengwang917:
should i update my baseband to MK2 to get the full benefit of this rom? i'm currently on the 1/1/14 build with MDL.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] matthewdavis:
Yes. I'm surprised you aren't getting data drops.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] shengwang917:
i just started noticing that, maybe like once or twice a day , i would get zero bars for like 30 seconds plus(not sure if that's data being dropped or just the t-mobile network). I'm going to look into updating my baseband. is this a good guide to start with? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2546024
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
Dan Art is broken on New build, getting Android process error once booted up. Clean install.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
bleh, i know exactly what it is, I'll have to fix it tomorrow. to fix it revert teleservice.apk and teleservice.odex from my previous build into system/priv-app

this is why I kept removing damn ART support :P gah I hate this runtime but at least you can fix it tonight, you just will have a cosmetic issue in your phone settings > voicemail menu for a night

sorry bud
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
OK cool
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
yep, small incremental update for ART users only tomorrow
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
Just switched the files and yes its now working on Art.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaZart:
Every time I feel satisfied with my setup you release an update that makes it obsolete.

Welp time to backup and flash once again! :cowboy:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
Dan ,Browser on art forces close even after clearing cache or fixing permission.

Other then that nothing else to report.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kadett-k2:
In the newest update isnt KTweaker kernel?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PENKO956:
do you ever sleep buddy! seems you guys work overtime on this. Great work on Rom. Ever since I flashed GE never looked back for TW. Hope all is well with this ugly weather were getting.

quick question Dan. Now that ART is back in the game with apps working correctly are you personally using it or are you sticking with Dalvik?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
I stick with dalvik
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] robbyr:
Is there a mirror? The link in the OP is broken. :crying:

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319202776 Does not work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] matthewdavis:
It is.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Christopher3712:
I'm hoping that it's still uploading. I can't access any other sites besides androidfilehost at work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] robbyr:
Doesn't seem like the site is working at all. :silly:

I can't get to the main site either. Is there a mirror that we can use?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Christopher3712:
I didn't think to check the main site. I haven't seen a mirror in this thread, although I'm sure someone will put it up soon. If the whole androidfilehost site is down, I'd gather it's for maintenance. The minute the site's up and running, the file should be available. I'll just check back in a couple hours.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] disturkis4u:
Any reason why my phone could be warm? It seems to also be draining my battery. I have 60% left on 2.5 hours use. No apps draining the battery :confused:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
This ROM and KitKat is worth way more then touchwiz.don't need gimmicks just need a phone that outperforms everything and looks clean and this is the #1choice.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nhugh406:
can't seem to get ART to stick. i select the ART runtime, reboots, and it's set back to Dalvik.

sorry if it's been answered, i read back and just saw art now working with apps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hotbread:
I'm responding to the first quote and agree whole heartedly to the second quote.

Let me try to persuade you with a "yay" to flash this ROM. :)

I was a new Android user back in May. My first entry is the S4, so I thought I'd enjoy TouchWiz for a while... and without much to compare to, it was very good. I didn't see all the rave and hooplas over the "Nexus Experience" ordeal. The TW applications are very nice to have, but things wear off my interest and what I use daily isn't exactly unique to TW anymore...except maybe the camera features. For the longest time, I ABSOLUTELY held stedfast to T-Mobile TouchWiz based ROM purely for the WiFi calling that T-Mobile offered. As Google made improvements on their Camera, I was even willing to let go of the nice Samsung camera features.

It's not until I switched to AT&T, which loses the single function that held me on TW... WiFi calling. I flashed a Google Edition ROM and never looked back. :) Things are just snappier. The whole Settings menu/app just makes more sense and feels... tighter. The Samsung's TW launcher is fantastically ugly on all counts. Whenever I see a TW launcher home now, I just want to nab the phone and install Nova launcher to rid the monstrosity sight. I realize you can fix that by using Nova Launcher or a launcher of your choice, but the sluggish feel is still there.

I understand your lingering need for the WiFi calling function that still tethers you to the TW ROM, but I came from the exact stand point. I made the switch and will never go back.

[MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2651267]mrvirginia[/MENTION] put out two amazing ROMs. I personally switch back and forth between them and can't decide which is better. lol

Flash away, my friend. ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] disturkis4u:
I had no service for about 40 minutes then on WiFi alone. Could be why I suppose
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] polo79:
Can anyone test the pop-up window for sms? When set to default it was visually missing the send button due to theming I guess. I changed to the dark theme but haven't gotten a text yet to test.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] laureanop:
Send one to your own number.

But you're right. There's a theming issue with the light pop up
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] polo79:
Ok it's only the default quick reply theme that is missing the send button. Dark theme is good.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kaniebas:
I installed the rom using TWRP v 2.5.0.2:

I did a full wipe plus advanced wipe (data,system,cache,dalvic),

and i came from Hyperdrive RLS12 TMO rom

also after i installed i let it sit for about 15 min,then i install Xposed and reboot and the phone stuck in Samsung GALAXYS4 logo on boot,

took out the battery tried to reboot still stuck

I tried to wipe cache and dalvik in recovery but still nothing.

Any sugestions?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] laureanop:
Wipe again and re install
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kaniebas:
thanks for you reply i will try now,
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] polo79:
Is pics to sd not included in the newest update? I don't see that as an option in xposed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hotbread:
Regarding TWRP v2.5.0.2, I feel the latest version v2.6.3.0 is pretty solid to use. I've been using it to flash all the recent ROMs with no problem. No splash screen hanging or hiccups. I figure I'd put that out there so we can benefit from the newer fixes TWRP put into their recovery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kaniebas:
Thanks a lot for you information i had 2.6.3.1 and i saw that in the installation instructions he suggests 2.5.0.2.

I will try and report back

Flashed. Couldn't be happier. This is an amazing ROM Dan.... Thank you Dan and thank you Google and another thank you to Samsung for bringing such an amazing ROM into the world. This is sweet like candy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kaniebas:
Solved

I installed 2.6.3.0 TWRP Recovery and i tried to install but was still stuck and this time didnt boot at all ,not even first time,so i went back to recovery and i did a data wipe- NOT in advance-just the data button where you have to type "yes",i did it 3 times and then everything worked fine.

I think the issue was cos i was going in advance wipe .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Apostle:
I do an advanced wipe every time I flash a ROM. No matter what. I know its not needed but my OCD tells me that the phone has somehow slowed down if I don't do it.

I had the problem you described one time but it was on my G Note 10.1. Never figured out exactly what caused it but the end result was I could only successfully flash certain ROMs.

ART is fixed, I'm uploading a build now

the changes will be

-teleservice.apk fixed, themed and good to go using ART

-browser.apk removed from the build (AOSP browser isn't ready yet, still a few bugs)

I will upload a small flashzip for users on 1/08/2014 so you do not need to flash an entire ROM, this update only effects 2 files ;) but I will release an entire build for new users to this ROM :)

cheers
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Sauron@Mordor:
The random program closing issue was killing me so I reverted back to MrVirginia's ROM (though I upgraded to the one he dropped today). The random app closing issue seems to be gone. I was kinda winking at the issue, but I was late for work when my alarm didn't go off this morning and I was greeted with "Clock has stopped". lol

Perhaps I'll try this ROM again after a few more iterations and see if it's more stable for me.

Best,
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
I'm sorry but Dan's version of GPE is #1 to me.lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
can't compare the 2

updating the OP now with your art fixed Rob, don't flash the build tho

I will be right back with a small flash zip for users on 1/08/2013
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roblxskye:
Thanks dan
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Operation-A:
Dan why use ART when you Optimized Dalvik?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
it's not for me, I personally use dalvik but I want to make all users happy :D

UPDATE IN THE OP!

01/09/2014

-Fixed teleservice.apk for ART (Themed and 100% working )

-Removed the AOSP browser (still not ready to be baked in, needs some more work)

-users on 01/08/2014 hang tight, releasing a small zip for you guys, this build is for newer users

-taking a break from development now with gallery fixed, no issues remaining in this ROM

users currently on my 1/08/2014 build only can simply flash this in recovery and there will be no need to flash 1/09/2014 as it only affected 2 files and removed the browser, (the zip will now remove the browser)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Operation-A:
I still have the browser after flashing the fix so I am a little confused???
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Danvdh:
browser won't be removed with the small zip, you can decide what to do with it :)

it's in system/app so you can simply delete browser.apk and browser.odex if you wish, or keep it if you want :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Operation-A:
I wasn't seeing any problems with the browser so I guess I am gonna keep it. Chrome is a huge file and I don't need all its functionality all I need is a snappy browser and I feel like aosp is faster. what do you think about chrome Dan?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] polo79:
So it looks like all I need to do to get pics to sd is download and install from xposed right?

yes it's right in xposed downloads, I didn't include it because some ppl said it was causing G+ to FC them, even though it was fine on my phone?

just grab it out of xposed installer
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] polo79:
DUDE I missed that discussion because I've been having bad google+ issues. Will see if it does it on last night's build and report. Probably will...

yeah something with pics2sd is screwing with G+

hey rob!

Google cam 0

I am somewhat confused... Here you say that KT Tweaker doesn't function but in post #2 you have settings? I am on your 1/6/14 release and I also have KT TWeaker installed. I made some minor changes in the settings - So are you saying that the settings I have made are not being applied?

Been meaning to ask what ever happened to the Calendar app?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Apostle:
Dan has covered this before. Calendar app is in the play store and their is no need to have it in the ROM. Plus, it would almost certainly need updated anyway once you flashed the ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hotbread:
Might I suggest Cal from the same great people who made Any.Do?

http://www.any.do/cal

It's a MUCH nicer UI than the stock Google Calendar. Syncs to your Google accounts and all. Give it a spin. It's free.

Is there a way to apply jovys volume boosting sound hack on this ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bombader:
I just flashed this ROM last night,(1/08) all seems fine no issues with phone or browser. (What were the issues, I read a few posts back but didn't find the specifics) The only very minor issue I found was I'm unable to change the color of the QuickSettings Tiles. In the screenshots some of the tiles are blue, mine are all white except when the battery or signal is low they sometimes change red. The XuiMod Random Quick Settings Tile Color setting didn't seem to work.
