So with regards to supersu2.02, I have this installed, so do you think it might cause problems if I downgrade back to 2.01 Dan?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
nah just nags to update you're binary on fresh install, thats the only flaw i found in 2.02 when I added it to the ROM to test, I assume its a bug, 2.01 is fine
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] BillzillaAus:
Looks like a good ROM, reckon I'll give it a go soon.

Thanks for putting in the work to make it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] AMoosa:
Well I installed this new release last night (dirty flash). I've had 6 hours of calls since then and it hasn't skipped a beat. Perfect. No reboots. No slow downs. Great work my man. Thank you.

Now, if only you could get the Mobeam app working......
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] eden66:
For me yes :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] fedef12evo:
tried flashing this rom but can get it boot :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ktoonsez:
Yes for everyone :D. On 4 days now without any reports of reboots on all GE ROMs :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] AMoosa:
Not a single random reboot on latest version.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] buhsnarf:
Can anyone confirm that auto awesome video creation is still possible in Google+ photos in this latest version of the ROM?

If so will be upgrading as soon as back from work.

Thanks for this ROM! Have a virtual pint of beer!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dclarkg:
I decided to install this ROM yesterday, did a full clean wipe and install it, then I spent 3 1/2 hours testing and configuring it and I must say that I'm really impressed with this fully debloated ROM, since the first boot you can feel that it is not only a ''stock debloated'' ROM but a a fully optimized compilation, the speed and stability is amazing!! No FC, no RR, no issues... everything works fast and smooth.

The optimized dalvik and bionic + latest KT kernel is a just a killer bundle.

Time on battery: 5h 13m

Screen time: 24m 50s

Current Battery: 93%

Awesome! Nice work Danvdh!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sachs:
+1..nice and fast.

Would disable the sound when you turn off a call? this very annoying noise, especially in speakerphone (voice)

Thank you for the best rom KK.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dclarkg:
Kt just launched a new kernels fyi
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ktoonsez:
Thats for AOSP buddy, dont download that of you will be bootlooped :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dclarkg:
Wow didn't noticed it was for AOSP, I was just about to reboot to flash it! U saved my phone =]
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kadett-k2:
After update to newest version I cant run gravity box!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
you need to install xposed, reboot, enable the module and reboot
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ktoonsez:
You really should stop xposing yourself on this forum :eek: :p :laugh: :silly: :D.

P.S.

F.A.R.T. :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
ROFL! F.A.R.T. is disabled in this ROM so I can xpose myself
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Prodigalza:
You didn't do a proper full wipe, I had the same issue.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] cedricj:
Greattttttt!

This rom is the best fastest and most stable ROM able. It is unbreakable :) Thanks a billion!

i love it just love it.

Just one thing:) How do i make the OK google. I flashed the google launcher twice but i do not see th ""OK google" on the Google NOW screen...

Thanks!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
That's odd then, as I done a fresh install of this rom shortly after supersu2.02 came out. I flashed the rom then immediately flashed supersu2.02 straight after (the update zip version) and not had a single problem.

Looking forward to having the aosp browser on this tho.

Hopefully kryten can do his magic on contacts too.

Great work both of you.

:good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
perhaps the method of adding SU to the ROM changes in 2.02, either way 2.01 works out of the box and is the latest "official" release

2.03 is coming soon too which means there are things to fix somewhere, probably just Android L stuff
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hnegrao:
Guys, I'm sorry for asking again but is there a way to install the stock android camera in this ROM?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Szarko:
Some themes would be great.

Not sure where you find ones for Nova Launcher.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] chrisj22:
What was your screen on time? Looked like it would be pretty low
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MohamedN:
Snap camera is WAY much better for the S4
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
how do you guys feel about me shipping my ROMs out with stock kernel and just letting you guys decide which one to flash, I'm sure everyone is well aware by now a custom kernel is needed for intl i9505 devices and simply providing a stock kernel like my North American builds will give you guys a clean base to use whatever kernel you prefer

my current changelog looks like this

-Added light weight AOSP browser

-"Find on page" string fixed and working with all languages

-Updated Google play services

-Updated Playstore

-Updated Google Keyboard

-Updated Calculator

-Updated Google search

-Added Pure Nexus build to north american threads

-Updated build.prop

+more to come
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iamnotkurtcobain:
But stock kernel has reboots...?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
the ones I provide go obsolete quickly as kernel devs release updates, is it such a task to quickly flash the latest kernel? my goal is to not have to provide 4 builds for 1 variant, alot of ppl have issues with Ktoonsez and have to use googy for some odd reason
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iamnotkurtcobain:
So the stock kernel has no random reboots anymore? Yes it would be the best to make 1 rom and make the kernel available for download ??
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
nah it reboots on phones it used to reboot on but some INTL users can use it for some reason I cannot explain, there are 4 kernels available that all work though

Googy, ktoonsez, Faux and Alucard
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iamnotkurtcobain:
You prefer stock kernel right? ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Szarko:
Any chance of call record?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MohamedN:
Good idea, if you are okay with people keep complaining and nagging

"I flashed your rom and my phone have random reboots"

I suggest to add links for other kernels in the op and explaining that stock kernel could not work well in international variant.

Would you Please consider implementing the new theme engine in your future release, if it's possible of course.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
Theme engine won't work with GPE, requires source we don't have

I just feel stock is the best option for these reasons

1) some of you can actually use it

2) its the cleanest base to flash a custom kernel overtop as it will require no cleaning scripts

3) I dont have to upload 4 builds, just 2

i'll think about it some more before I come to my decision
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] iamnotkurtcobain:
That's true but it should be possible to flash a zip that themes the rom like Android L.

But nobody can do it or doesn't want to do it :D

Now that would be AWESOME. ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dclarkg:
I'll say go for stock kernel releases, right now you have to build and upload whole ROMs just to offer different kernels while we as users only need to download less than 10mb and do one miserable reboot. It will save you tons of time.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
Good idea, just release one build with stock kernel and then add links to custom kernels in the op. Makes total sense to me :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] petrus764:
I honestly don't think it's a good idea to ship only with the stock kernel by default.

First of all, users expect a stable rom when flashing a new one. When 99.9% of all i9505 users can't use it, there's no point.

Number two, when 99.9% of all users who flash this can't use it, this thread will be spammed to hell with users wanting to understand what's going on. Doesn't matter if it's in the OP, people don't read the OP. Just look at the gravity box thread, it's hopeless.

What I think you should do, is make an aroma based rom, where users can select kernel, launcher and other tweaks while flashing. That way, you only need to upload one build for all users, and that one can include the stock kernel along with custom ones.

Kangkat GPE comes with aroma http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2735248 and it works pretty well. I think that's the most pragmatic solution to this problem.

Not sure if you've used Aroma before, but the end result is pretty sweet.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] avinashadvani:
Yes its best for you to just release one version with stock and just have links to the various kernels and let the users themselves install the kernel of their choice, it just takes literally 2-3 minutes to copy kernel to phone and flash.

i support this:good::good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 2k13i:
I dont get it since couple weeks i have this ROM without any problem everything works fine even battery is more than enough! Guys u all switch off antivirus anykind even from windows and also first flash to stock rom then root then install this awesome ROM.. Everything works fine and 100% i never had this good ROM and this is staying here till i break my Phone or lose it :silly:

Possibly post a link to the kernel cleaning script (5.2 now I believe..)

Because of the kernel flip flopping that people will do..

Stweaks from Alucard, stweaks from googymax, etc..

Possibly a psa alerting people to changing the kernel questions should be discussed in their own relevant threads..

And of course, this is not L.

Heh
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
Aroma is not good for us dual booters - it always seems to cause problems :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Murthick:
I'd say have googy kernel as the default in the two builds (customised and pure nexus) as it is the closest to stock compared to the other custom kernels. It doesn't have any OC/UC etc and has good default settings that don't need tweaking.

Then, of course, provide links to the other 3 custom kernels in the OP.

I think having the stock kernel as default will cause a lot of repetitive questions from the new people.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] albertost:
hello, i love this rom but pls where can i find the original software for the camera? i searched a lot but can't find any APK :(

can u help me?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
If you are talking about original Sammy Touch Wiz camera, it will not work on ROMs that are not based on TW
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] albertost:
oh :( i hoped was just a software for the camera, alone

damn .... ok ty very much
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
you could dual boot with a tw in primary and what ever you like in dual, then if you want to take a lot of pics it only takes 30 secs to boot tw with the good camera ;)

links in my signature
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] albertost:
ohhhh this sounds really nice but ... i need to learn how to dual boot. so maybe in the second partition i can put the original samsung firmware?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
TW always best in primary - go to the dual boot thread (link in my signature) and we can discuss there rather than hijacking Dans thread ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] lauwdude:
I had the issue that LTE did not work with this rom, even a modem update did not fix the issue.

I found a solution to this problem, you need to connect to an access point with LTE support. I do not have an English configured phone, it is possible that the names below are not 100% correct:

Go to settings;

more;

mobile network;

name access point.

Normally there are multiple access points in the list. Connect to another access point and reboot your device. Keep repeating till you have an LTE connection.

You also can find the settings for LTE on the internet. The settings for KPN in the Nederlands are:

Kernel cleaning scripts are really useless.

Stweaks is always the same app, it doesn't matter from which kernel it's coming so all you have to do when changing a kernel is disabling load on boot in Stweaks or ktweaker or remove the app and maybe wipe cache and dalvik.

I think you also shouldn't direct people to the kernel threads for questions. It's a normal kernel change, if someone can't do it he should read the basics or stay with stock.

I personally wouldn't mind if the rom ships with stock kernel but it really would flood the threat with posts of lazy people complaining about reboots. Just take Kt or googy and people who want to have the other one can flash it on their own.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mystique:
Stweaks from Alucard is different than Googy and different from play store..

You wouldn't click on the cleaning script thread, but someone else might want or need that.

Sent from my GT-I9505G
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
Nope, if you try and use play store STweaks on either googy or alucard you gonna have problems, that's why you end up with two different STweaks app if you flash googy after alucard or vice versa. The apks are kernel specific and moded by the kernel ddev.

Cleaning scripts are useful eg [MENTION=4272718]hawkerpaul[/MENTION]s that actually cleans all known traces of kernel files ie: /data/.alucard and said tweaking apps and also wipe cache/dalvik just for the apks related to kernel rather than the whole lot which is long if you are on ART

Although of course if you know where to look it's easy enough but not all knows eh.

I still like the idea of having the stock kernel, I'd quite like to try it just in case I'm lucky and don't get the RR.

I think a big message under the download button written in red advising that the build comes with stock kernel which may be unstable and recommend flashing custom kernel will work, and if it doesn't we can have lots of fun tolerantly or not so tolerantly directing people to actually read the op lol, what harm can it do other than annoying some of us less tolerant sorts ;)

---------- Post added at 05:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:16 PM ----------

Quite right ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] rauschkugl:
Then the implementation is wrong. Stweaks is from gokhanmoral and everything can be configured in the kernel so the app has not to be touched.

The scripts are useless. People flash them and don't know what happens and what they do. They just trust that they are working correct. Is it that hard to wipe your cache in recovery? Nobody needs a script for it. It's for lazy people that don't want to learn but just get everything on the silver tablet. Ask Kt or any other good kernel dev.

We have a search function if we don't know we're to look. A forum isn't there to ask questions that were answered already different times another time. It's all there already and there's some work you have to do yourself if you want to mess with your phone. It's also in the rules of the forum!

If you want to try stock kernel then download it and try, it doesn't have to be in the rom therefore. You can flash it like every other kernel.

Nothing will work. You could make a popup message that you have to acknowledge before you can download and it wouldn't help. Just look have often the error 7 recovery **** got asked and answered and still is asked.

And you can call me whatever you want and think of me what you want, I don't care. Yes I'm not tolerant to people that are lazy and spamming threads with same questions again and again. I follow some threads regularly and I'm pissed off of reading the exact same question every day. These are still development threads where most questions wouldn't belong at all. It's not hard do do some work here yourself instead of just posting. Of somebody is not willing to learn something and do some reading he also hasn't deserved a polite answer or anybody doing the search for him.

UPDATE IN THE OP!!!

08/19/2014

-Added light weight AOSP browser

-"Find on page" string fixed and working with all languages

-Updated Google play services

-Updated Playstore

-Updated Google Keyboard

-Updated Calculator

-Updated Host file (ad blocking)

-Updated apns.conf to add more support out of the box for European carriers

-Updated CM file manager

-Updated weather widget

-Updated Googe now launcher (Pure Nexus builds only)

-Updated Google search (Pure Nexus build only)

-Updated Google Search (Pure Nexus build only)

-Added Pure Nexus build to North American threads

-Updated build.prop

-ALL builds including INTL are shipping with stock kernel, flash your own GE kernel as the ones I provide go out of date rather quickly and flashing custom

over stock is always the cleanest way to go about it, I don't have the time to be uploading 6 builds everytime I release an update.

INTL I9505 DEVICES SHOULD USE A CUSTOM GE KERNEL TO PREVENT RANDOM REBOOTS

Googy kernel (closer to stock can be found here)

Ktoonsez kernel (tons of original development) can be downloaded here

enjoy you're phone folks, I spent my entire day off preparing this update for you and uploading so I hope you enjoy it :D we are getting closer and closer to Android L and I am 100% devoted into getting that onto our phones with the same quality you can expect from this ROM

thanks for the support to all who donated, you are helping me through tough times and if I couldn't email you personally to thank you please accept this as my personal thanks :D

Can I dirty flash this version? And is Alucard good or do I need to switch to googy or kt?

i would clean flash this one mate
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Thanks for the new update Dan.

All flashed and looking good.

Immediately flashed Googy 1.1.5 after the ROM

Particularly loving having the AOSP browser on GPE!

Great work mate

:good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Ritvars:
Damn it, that means I have to backup every app on my phone. :D I hate restoring apps, it takes forever.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
I dirty flashed, but a clean flash is always recommended

And anyway, even after a full wipe, it shouldn't take you very long to get everything back up to normal as long as you use TB to batch restore the apps you need (or are you still on the free version? :D ) and remember to save your Nova settings+homescreens beforehand.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Ritvars:
I always backup my homescreens and settings. Yeah, I'm still using the free version of TB. As soon as I get some spare money, I will purchase TB without a doubt! It's a must have app for people like us.

P.S. I will flash the new version sometime tomorrow, if you have any issues till that because of dirty flash, please tell me, so I can clean flash it. Otherwise, I will dirty flash it. :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MohamedN:
As I suggested :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] avinashadvani:
Wow another great update for the S4

Dan we need you on the one plus one :) I am still looking for a clean AOSP GE for the one plus one, I have been spoilt by your quality roms !!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dr.wtf:
still takes me like half a day resetting all the accounts, restoring settings, wifi, all those little things, configuring and so on.

my phone is heavily customized though...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] avinashadvani:
yeah whatever you do with titanium etc, it still takes 4-5 hours to make your phone back to the way it was after a clean wipe :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Danvdh:
Nova launcher profiles are a big time saver, I restore with TIBU then goto nova settings and restore my home screen settings and then I just need to log into everything, set up settings and then get greenify rolling
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] avinashadvani:
yeah plus the tweaking with xposed and gravity box and the internet speed of things to have things downloaded fast enough from play store..

ok at least 2-3 hours :) you are the usain bolt of flashing cannot compete :D:D

Is it possible to do something for the battery life?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Connect a charger or don't switch the phone on!

:D

Battery life is very device/user specific.

You need to think about what apps you have installed and how often you need them to sync/update etc.

Try to reduce your wakelocks (install Better Battery stats to find out the battery hungry apps and attempt to reduce their impact)

Greenify can be used to hibernate apps that you dont require to be running in the background

You can also use Llama/Tasker to intelligently switch off/on things like wifi/bluetooth/mobile data etc according to time/location etc.

Loads of things you can try
