[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Delete apps from system/app rather than from system/priv-app... and go for the obvious google ones (chrome,currents, books,keep,earth etc..). Some of those have libs associated with them that u can also delete...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Vihru:
yes, but in KitKat, something in that system/priv-app is making that settings FC.. but i dont know what..

Just installed 4.4 and in the process of getting to know it and get all my apps on it. Been on for about an hour now and so far AMAZING !!! SERIOUSLY AMAZING. I love it. Incredibly smooth. Full phone signal ( I've never had that since buying my s4 ) no fc so far. Just totally blown away with it. WELL DONE AND THANKYOU TO ECHOEROM AND EVERYONE ELSE INVOLVED !!! I am one happy bunny !! I'll keep you posted on any other finding. Oh just one, I've noticed folders you create are not unlimited any more but that's no biggy.

If I have time I can make a really simple debloated ROM if the rest of the ultra slim and slim team are busy. What would guys want gone and what would you like to keep?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MrJiM:
Please delete everything that can be downloaded from play store. Make it as small as possible.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mussels84:
and make a zip file of everything you removed and upload that seperately. saves a lot of trouble when people request X file later on (happened a lot in the previous echoe thread)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] skeamznz:
Ok so delete everything other than play store and the needed apps? I'm at work at the moment will start looking to it. If other slim members jump in with all there experience and do it great. If not will have a look tonight.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mussels84:
whats a good recommendation for a tweaking app, since Ktweaker/ktoonz cant be used with 4.4 yet?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Vihru:
I made slim version and now size is 260mt..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mussels84:
did some testing:

900/2100MHz 3G for me here, but since its mostly stable i dont think thats the cause.

nova launcher

3G only

rotation disabled

facebook, messenger, and ebay only - no 3D gaming or media playback.

upto 22 hours stable.

i've had a lot of crashes within minutes of using 3D, rotated programs like angry birds and MX player - i swap to another program (or just to the launcher) and it reboots soon after if i leave it idle. i'm not sure if its the rotation of the apps in the background, but since its never crashed or rebooted while these apps were running, i've got a suspicion its related to background tasks. both MX player and angry birds friends use network connections as well (for ads, if nothing else) so that may be related.

so today, 8 hours stable with the above settings (i rebooted to install update #1 earlier).

9:45pm stopped playing angry birds to receive a phone call at 9:46pm

at 9:59pm the phone rebooted in the call.

called back without running any prior apps at 10PM

10:46pm still on call with no reboot. seems like angry birds was related.

to get peoples attention:

My reboots seem to be caused by loading certain apps, and leaving them running in the background. thats why it reboots and then stays stable if you leave it alone. Rebooting while charging is probably unrelated.

Im at aloss therefore i removed the stock framework zip from the kitchen... unfortunately for now you will have to live with the custom background...

I dont know why it affected the 4way reboot which is a different framework file... and the stock framework-res was just taken from v1... I dont get it.. The solution is to use the framework thats in the rom... its really not the ugliest background at least imo....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] m.nassy.uk:

I added the stock kernel in the kitchen.. I made a flashable zip of the stock boot.img and modules..

Hey guys. Thanks for the great rom!! Everything seems to be working for me so far. Just a question - what kernel should I install - AOSP or GE??!

Because I've never had problems with KTkernel so I would like to try it out.... Hope it's not a frequent question that I'm repeating....

Thanks a lot for the amazing ROM once again !! :laugh: :good:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Me4oKyX:
I was thinking the same but just to be on the safe side - asking never hurts.... at least not me :)

Flashed the new settings from the kitchen but xposed framework FCs... The other full customisation is not working as well - both force closes. Not a big deal just mentioning it. Thanks devs!! :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] benc88:
Hey been using this ROM since yesterday, all working fine now reboots. Exchange working perfectly also. Have xposed installed running fine too. Only one issue so far is that shazam says it cannot use mic as another app is using it. So I fc all apps that use mic with no luck. Any ideas what it could be? Uninstalled Skype and sound cloud and other mic related apps too. Nothings worked so far. Any help would be appreciated. Blazing fast after clean install, tweaked further with faux clock. Thanks Friedrich!!!!!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mr.Yawnie:
Since soundhound is working without any issues, I'd say it's a bug in shazam itself with KitKat. As so many permission things changed in KitKat.. Not 100% sure though.

Just reading through the reviews in play store gives the expression that it just doesn't work with KitKat in general..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:

Im afraid its an app thing... not sure if it has updated to be able to be compatible with 4.4....

With any file manager, root expolorer or es file manager or similar, head in to System/app and delete titatinium backup from there. Reboot and you will have your pro version back if it still is in data/app. If not, just download it again from playstore :)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mussels84:
since people keep asking for details, i'll state where this rom is at:

its still a little unstable. we get restarts when charging, and with certain applications running in the background (games that you dont quit, but leave idle)

its a google edition rom because samsung havent released a 4.4 rom for us yet.

not all apps are kitkat compatible, but most are.

dual booting is fun with v10 ultra slim (i've got a youtube video coming show how simple it is to swap between them)

ok heres a test: in the ktoonz thread we've had someone claim overvolting 62.5mv solved his random reboots.

we're on the faux kernel but it actually seems to have worked for me - apparently one change ktoonz has seen, is that the L2 cache is clocked higher by default now whilst the voltages are the same.

quite simply: try overvolting your CPU til you have no reboots. i'm at +50mv and no reboots yet, while angry birds is sitting there idle.
