Occasionally I'm getting Gravitybox crashes when starting GB. Had this on an earlier build, but in the previous build they were gone. With latest (and full wipe, incl system/data/cache wipe) they are suddenly back. Just starting GB again after this and it works fine. I guess this is not ROM related though judging from the logcat (null pointer in Java);

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Ralu:
Very nice Rom, thank you very much for this.

I have only one question: Is Wi-fi direct not fully implemented in this rom? I have no wi-fi direkt entry in the sharing menu and if i try to send a file via wi-fi direct from another device it is not successfull. But in the WLAN settings there is a menu entry called wi-fi direct...

Thank you!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] AK211990:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
Upcoming

So with more testing over the last 24 hours, I've come up with a perfect autobrightness setup for our galaxy S4. I have added 2 new values. Interior dark rooms will now utilize the lowest brightness available, dim rooms will use a value of 20 and very well lit interiors will use a value of 40 (That insanely bright minimum brightness autobrightness was allowed to go before)

The results of this will be very comfortable reading in low light and more options for users to adjust in Gravitybox (I can confirm you can edit everything I do in there and it works 100% now since I've disabled stock Samsung autobrightness that they ported over from touchwiz into GPE, to clarify this again. we are now using stock android autobrightness, battery life savings with this change will be very noticeable and your eyes will thank you later in life aswell

along with these changes I plan on updating our SuperSU binary and app, and that should be it for 4.4.2, I've said this many times in the past and it's actually becoming a ongoing joke in my threads, but making daily driver material ROMs is what I do here on XDA and if I see improvements I do not hesitate to make them mainstream and available to everyone, I'm very picky and OCD when it comes to this ROM

other then that, I will be out for the afternoon but i'll be around tonight to work on what I hope is the final 4.4.2 release
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sid3winder:
I got mine to work. Using titanium backup, i backed up the launcher system app (back when it was still Launcher, not launcher3) as well as Google Search. Restored both of these apps and i got my home screen icons and pages set up and ready to go.

My google search version is 3.1.24.94172, i am not sure if its the latest version though as i have read that there is (3.2?) now but i think thats for N5.

Edit: Just got it updated from the play store to 3.2.17. This could mean that the play store version of google search should work fine?

As for the launcher app, i think i may have backed it up when i was still on Jamal's GE rom. It says Launcher 0.9.6.88692.

Hope this helps

after flashing and before you reboot from cwm: was there some dialogue after you clicked on reboot where you could choose between yes and no? you have to press no...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] phil.o:
I am using this MOD.

It works very well and I have not faced any issues so far.

Just flash the zips via CWM. ;)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Barthlon:
Haha I think we are the same when it comes to ROMs.

Did you try copying velvet, gmscore (and search?) over from the previous build? and removing launcher3 and adding googlehome? Then I see no reason why it shouldn't work. Maybe it doesn't start on first boot and you have to start it manually.. or maybe you have to update search first with play store.. other then that I can't think of something that may break it!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
It will work. I'm still opposed to search running rampant as a system app. Its obtainable via the market

Gel is so bloaty compared to launcher3. No idea why you guys use it :P

Here are my results so far with auto brightness. Much better. ;). This is using north american stock kernel. Stock battery
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] AllSeeyinEye:
WTF is launcher3?

Verstuurd vanaf mijn GT-I9505G met Tapatalk
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
Stock aosp launcher.

Main build uses nova which is easily the best IMO. Small, fast and features are plentiful
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] AllSeeyinEye:
Tnx for explaining. I'm a Nova fan for sure and using your standard build. Guess that explains me not knowing of it.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] nikzDHD:
Anyone with GEL issues as a caution, I was using AppOps and disabled the keep awake option for Google Search which made the GEL not work.

I prefer Nova, the gestures alone I use them all the time. Swipe down for notification, swipe up to launch this forum, double tap to manually hibernate apps with Greenify, pinch in to take me to battery stats so useful to do such things from the home screen.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Barthlon:
I don't use it! :p I use nova. I used apex before but the new option of bova to hide the drawer tabs won me over :)

I normally (re)move as much as possible (out of the system app folder). Easier to take control over your apps that way.

Looking forward to your brightness 'mod'. By far the best and easiest way to save battery.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] AllSeeyinEye:
Hey [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION],

Could you perhaps do something about the menu and back keys backlight strength? I remember having an LG phone several years ago that had a custom ROM option to lower the voltage to those keys, dimming the backlight.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] alberber:
Hey guys,

I've been using ART for a while and looks like it's good stuff. The problem is that it isn't compatible with xposed, therefore Gravity Box.

My question is: is there any mod out there that gives so many features as GB do? I miss a lot of things like the custom quick settings panel, the long press back button to kill apps, etc.

Enviado desde mi GT-I9505G mediante Tapatalk
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] AllSeeyinEye:
I disagree. Everyone uses another file manager, and there is the play store you can use right after flashing

Verstuurd vanaf mijn GT-I9505G met Tapatalk
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] SSThing:
Unfortunately, where I live the signal can be quite poor at times and I have no landline for broadband (and I doubt very much I am the only one in this situation), so the PlayStore isn't always an option after a clean install. With a file manager I can at least reinstall my backed up apk`s manually. Which file manager I decide to use afterwards is my choice, but at least I can have my phone up and running.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
then add one to the data/app folder of the zip ;) you can even uninstall it after

es file explorer should do the trick, if I get time ill add a flash zip for a file manager but I have no intentions including one, I myself swear my root explorer and don't want anything on my device but that

if you are on the latest update, no need to worry, the next update is just updating some autobrightness values ;) I have some improved CM settings rolling out sometime tonight ;) it's a small flash, you wont need to download a full rom

and I'm quite confident that will be it, im going to smash my PC with a battleaxe so I can't update anymore. there really is nothing wrong with this ROM
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] SSThing:
So is it as simple as unzipping your rom file, adding an apk to the data/app folder, then rezipping? Or is it more complicated?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
no need to unzip, use 7-zip and you can open up the zip and just drag and drop something in from your desktop (user market apps go in data/app and system apps go in system/app)

just don't be touching things you are unsure of, anything you would like to add to my ROM can be done in this manner

have a look around

ringtones and audio are in

/media aswell ;) delete any you don't use if you wish
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] SSThing:
Awesome! Just tried it and can see how that works now. So, apologies if I am a painintheass, fully functioning callrecording is an absolute necessity for me, so I am currently back on 4.3, but is it GoogleDialler I need to swap out for the 4.3 dialler, or are more files involved?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
that would be a huge issue and you will have force close city on your Samsuck Galaxy Knox 4 :cool:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] alex.inthi:
Why I can't use Google Launcher! I flashed file you gave. But its not working on your latest version.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jordiz86:
You have to install Google search from play store! After you can use Google Launcher ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 4info:
btw... Nova launcher works amazing with this ROM! - give them a try before you use GEL.

Hi guys, been watching this thread for a while and feel its time to break away from samsung stock rom. Ive already tripped knox while rooting and running phils recovery. Modem is NA1.

Any adice before i get started?

Shall i get on and flash 06/02 or wait for latest version + dirty flash?!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jordiz86:
Yes I confirm, nova is the best, smooth and fully customizable! ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] -sandro-:
So when you release the new rom this feature is gonna be included ? No need to adjust with gravity box?

Also guys do you know if there's a xposed module that can show the correct icon when using H+ instead of showing just H always?

Exactly what i did.

Running perfectly as all the reviews in the thread have stated. Had a little boot loop at the beginning where i deleted nova and there was no launcher for the phone to boot into. Duh! Thought that google launher was included but a quick reflash of the rom and it was back up and running.

Its been a while since i was on aosp - how do i edit the quick tabs in the notification drop down?
