The bold ones I would like to remove, what do you think?

Testing, working well...
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey.

You want me to make a new image?

I can do that, then it will only contain the apps you have listed.:)

But some people might want to keep them...

OK. Now some 4.3 info.

I do now have a fully working working 4.3 kernel image ready. I've made a lot of testing with my 4.3 system image and everything seems to work. I disabled all Samsung rooting restrictions, set SE-Linux status till Permissive. Disabled policy update and audit reporting.

Testet, recompiled, tested again and so on. This kernel only works with my 4.3 system image.

I've spent a lot of time trying to get the root permissions to work. But it seems like Samsung has done something else. So atm. NO root, but I can remove a lot of crap from the system image before I flash. Seems the problem is related to security policies and that's what I'm reading up on.

Furthermore, since this is an insecure kernel, it will give a little red warning at the top of the screen. This will appear when the phone is turned on, rebooted or put on charge if off.

But it doesn't trip any KNOX.

If someone wants to test it, just let me know. Then you can try 4.3 and report back if you find anything not working.

You just need to flash kernel and system + a CSC. Using your current CSC file should work.

System and CSC should be flashed together. Kernel as PDA and CSC as CSC. Doing this, will protect you from a constantly stopping keyboard. This happened to me the first time, but happens every time a system is being flashed.

I'll be back with more information if anybody wants to give it a shot.

See ya :cool:
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] sh0ne:
No mate, that was just a status from me If someone wants it thinner, 98% want the others apps.

[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Ok. I fix it tomorrow, need to remove debugging info etc. Then I will remove some more app crap. After flash you might discover a problem with Google Play not showing up when you lock in. Then just close it and clear it's cach under program manager. But you probably already know. :) Just fixed me an other security policy...still no root :(

See ya
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] fodil123:
hi MAN

I Want To Test This

Give Me Link :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
I'll probably going to put it online this afternoon. I've had a breakdown on my laptop, so I had to redo a lot of work and downloads. But now everything is up running again. As you guys might have noticed in the OP, I have made CSC packages without the hidden image. You should be able to use these with the 4.3 system image.

Reason for doing this; because you're not able to remove the crap without root. Links are atm. empty but will be ready later today.

Furthermore I've removed about 500 MB of useless stuff.

Security is like 4.2.2 and NFC payment therefore don't work.

It will give you custom system and binaries. But no KNOX.

If you later on flash stock 4.2.2 kernel and my pre-rooted 4.2.2 system, then use TA and everything will be set to official.

Ok I'll be back later.

See ya
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] casiocas:
Hey!

NICE & NICE AGAIN! We are waiting the downloads. :highfive:

You are doing very hard work and I appreciate it!

Peace for all!!!

:cool:
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey guys.

I'm gonna put the open Nordic CSC only inside the package. Then you guys can just flash your preferred CSC later on.

Odin package will contain: 4.3 insecure kernel, heavily modified 4.3 system image and the above mentioned CSC. Will be made available for download at the OP.

Please report all problems here in the thread.

If any of you already have seen an original 4.3 stock running on this device, you will see some minor changes. It will not show anything about running original Samsung bootloader. And under security, where you can select if you want to install from other places than Google Play, protection level is gone. Here you could choose between High and Normal download security. I found out that this caused a lot of trouble, the phone just rebooted if it didn't like the download, preventing you to install.

As said before, policy updating is totally disabled. Have found out, that Samsung was actually able to push out a new policy and this way enable the SELinux Enforced mode...and we don't wanna let that happen. :cool:

All the 'CSC only' packages are now online at the OP.

I'll be back

See ya
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

No, you should not need to flash the Slim De-Odexed again.

Regards.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

Making a list of removed stuff is mostly waste of time. This because a lot of apps are depending on other apps also removed.

Also note that my Slim system is a v1.0. - There's still apps that can be removed, like the once you mention. I can make a new version with even more stuff removed, actually testing a new version myself right now but seems to get random reboots...problem is to find out which removed app causing it...

Regarding the 'Samsung uPic'; it's coming from the CSC/Hidden and not a part of the regular system - just uninstall it, can be done under Setting/More/Application Manager.

Regarding the other apps you mention; yes I know - removed in new version together with others. But some people actually use them.

The colours is Sammy's choice, not mine. You just can't change it yourself, unless you know how you edit the particular file (requires disassembling and reassembling after editing).

I've no knowledge of an app able to change the colours, perhaps others has.

Regards.

xposed for lollipop

[MENTION=4188575]DeHAWK[/MENTION] thanks for all your work with the ROM. It's working well for me, the only thing that's missing is Xposed framework support. There's a comment in the Q&A's post (here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58829021&postcount=2) that says [MENTION=4696762]darkera13[/MENTION] has got it working. Furthermore, there's a post (here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=60806250&postcount=36) where he says "I will write a guide, it shoud work on all TouchWiz rom"

Let's hope he's forthcoming, and you're able to incorporate his stuff into your ROM :)

Thanks,

I have tried with SystemUI Overlays/Layers as described in http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/themes-apps/systemui-overlays-5-0-t3025183 but it's not working : after installing the layers application, downloading several themes and loading/installing via layers app and rebooting, there is no change on my phone look & feel. I'll do more search later.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] superpulosu:
Uninstall layers app, and do it yourself. With a root explorer go to system/vendor and make a new folder (if its not exist) rename the folder: overlay and change permission of the overlay folder to "755" . Inside overlay folder put your "layer".apk, and change permission of the apk to "0644". Google for app permission...

[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] SolaRayvelation:
I'm using DOD3 since yesterday with a MOTO 360. I'm using it as trusted device. It seems to work but after some time I have to log in with my complicated password again. It seems that the connection is failing after some time and then you have to type in the password to have it unlocked for the next half an hour. Like you said before it's very annoying but I always have this problem with stock ROMs. The only thing how the watch worked flawlessly as Lock before was the Xposed Module "No Lock Home" under 4.4.2 Stock although I had problems with other Bluetooth connections.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Genebaby:
OK, thanks, I might try with my pebble.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Genebaby:
I just tried installing the Slim XXUDOD3 De-Odexed update on my phone and it didn't seem to work. The phone stayed on the Galaxy S4 boot screen for a long time, maybe I ran out of patience?

I restored my old ROM, which is a CM based rom. I am still using my recovery from before, Philz. I wiped everything clean and flashed the DOD3 file and then the insecure non-oc kernel. Should that have worked? I'd like to keep this recovery if possible.

This started out with stock 4.4.2, AU Vodafone version, then had Official NEE and I think Greek 5.01 but they did not keep the smart watch connection. I then went to CM12 with different recovery and now I would like to try Slim DOD3 to see how it goes with the watch.

Hey, I was coming from DeHawks pre rooted 4.3 running TWRP recovery. I flashed the stock 5.0.1 provided in the 1st post of this thread and after Odin, my device got stuck in the black screen "loading recovery, recovery secure fail". After a while I pulled the battery and flashed the stock 5.0.1 recovery also provided in this thread Now my phone is stuck in the secure fail: Kernel screen. Have I totally ****ed up and is there any way out of this? :crying:
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

So you also think that the vibration is weaker on 5.0.1 than on both 4.3 and 4.4.2. I'll look at it when I have more time.

Regards.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

Did you install the Official Samsung 5.0.1 first, following the OP 5.0.1 1st section. Don't forget the pull battery trick.

Regards.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Genebaby:
Hi DeHAWK, yesterday I didn't do that, as I had previously had an Official Lollipop rom.

Just now I used Odin to put DOD3 on the phone, from your download. Then I installed TWRP.

I did the battery trick at some point, now I can't remember when.

The phone booted to the Samsung start up.

I then wiped it again and flashed the Slim zip and then the Non OC kernal file. Same outcome, just sits there at the Galaxy S4 screen.

I wiped it as I wanted to be sure that if it booted up ok, that I was in the Slim Rom, not just the normal one.

I'm not sure why it's not working. At the moment I"m back on my other recovery and restored my backup.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

Try it again, this time do the battery pull trick as explained in the same section. Be sure to use Odin v3.09 for flashing. Make sure to get rid of KIES on PC if installed and keep only the drivers.

Let me know how it goes.

Regards.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

Try to flash the insecure kernel after the full official flash and setup.

1. Flash full stock 5.0.1

2. Flash latest TWRP.

3. Flash insecure kernel.

Now test that everything is working.

If OK - flash the Slim De-Odexed system.

Let me know how it goes.

Regards.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Genebaby:
So no wiping of the system or anything before installing the slim rom?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Lowl1fe:
OK. I just flashed the stock 5.0.1 ROM again and thank god, it seems to be working. So I'm now on stock 5.0.1 firmware and stock 5.0.1 recovery. Should I now proceed in this order:

1. flash the CSC/Hidden (Oh, and can't seem to find the CSC files for 5.0.1, only 4.4.2 and 4.3, should I use one of them?)

2. install TWRP and flash your insecure kernel for 5.0.1 to gain root

3. finally wipe dalvik?

Or should I

1. flash the CSC now

2. then install TWRP

3. factory reset/wipe dalvik

4. finally flash you 5.0.1 kernel?
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

No need to do anything like that before installing Slim system, but AFTER the first Slim system boot up I recommend a factory reset. This just to remove stuff still leftover from original system.

Regards.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

Good to hear you got it working again.

No need to flash CSC, it's there already.

Now flash TWRP, latest version can be found in the forum.

Then flash insecure kernel.

No need to factory reset. Wiping is done automatically when installing insecure kernel.

Regards.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Genebaby:
Ok, I'm trying it now. Installed Official Rom, logged in. Now I did the Kernal and it's upgrading.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Lowl1fe:
Thanks for the help dude! Everything seems to be working now, only problem is that Xposed doesnt seem to work on 5.0.1 and the "Apps" partition can't be made so the apps are shown on top of each other with a alphabet bar on the side :D oh well...
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] maccaberry:
Hi DeHawk, Any possibility of getting the S-Health app (and also the required Samsung app dependencies) uploaded to the removed apps section. I like to use the deodexed slim, but miss S-Health. Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Genebaby:
I got it going, I was flashing the update like a standalone Rom.

It looks like the low energy BT connection with smart watches is still there so I'm going back to CM. It's something in the Samsung kernel but my friends S6 is fine, lucky for him.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Lowl1fe:
Ok, DeHawk, bro..as nice of a job you did with making it possible to get root access on 5.0.1, I really dislike that lollipop firmware. It lacks the support for Xposed framework and for some reason SSH doesnt work. Is there any way to revert back to your pre-rooted 4.3? I tried flashing with odin and restoring a nandroid backup but neither worked.

Hey Bro

I just re-installed this and every time I restart the phone the wireless is switched off. If it gets annoying I will try a factory reset. But I hate reinstalling my apps
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] maccaberry:
As mentioned above and in OP, you must factory reset straight after installing the slim deodexed rom to get around this problem. After the clean up operation all remnants of the full rom is washed away and you can setup everything without further problems.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] madnezzz:
I actually did factory reset. I think either my sd card caused some issue when it corrupted and failed. or my TWRP recovery was corrupt.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] maccaberry:
Thats odd. I (and a few others) have seen the same thing with the wifi slider not staying "on". But a factory reset fixed all that. Cable problems can also lead to weird outcomes too. I remember that with the earlier Galaxy's you could use just about any USB cable, but the newer versions (and maybe newer Odins) need better quality cable to ensure good flash.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] madnezzz:
I honestly think my phone is a dud.

But this i9506 is a dog.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] kornelius1982:
I`m testing darklord S6 and it works just fine and very stable, maybe you need to seek issues in your slim deodex rom.

Travel Wallpaper for Slim Lollipop

Hi DeHawk!

I was wondering if you are willing to provide the option to reinstall the Travel Wallpaper app for your Slim Lollipop ROM? I'm quite fond of it and it's the only piece of Samsung bloatware that I like! I really love and appreciate your work. Thank you!

So is it possible to revert back to 4.2.2/4.3 after updating to the lollipop 5.0.1 and DeHAWK's kernel? I really don't like the 5.0.1 because some crucial apps and functions just don't work. I have tried to flash 4.2.2/4.3 stock roms, kernels and recoveries. 4.2.2 won't even flash (an error message in Odin), 4.3 flashes and then boots into Samsung logo but just gets stuck in there. I have a nandroid backup of the system that I had before updating to 5.0.1. It was DeHAWK's pre-rooted 4.3 with his insecure kernel, and I believe with 4.2.2 bootloader since what I have understood he didn't include bootloader on to that pre-rooted 4.3. Any help would be amazing
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] GTI-9300:
From 5.0.1 to 4.4.2 is possible. In TWRP Full Wipe (not the External Card) and than flash your Rom.
[Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development] Lowl1fe:
Okay, so it isn't possible at all to return to stock 4.2.2 or 4.3 after installing stock 5.0.1? Is it because KNOX? The biggest problem I'm having with later firmwares is that SSH access doesn't work and I need it to manage my music library and other files. I'll give the 4.4.2 a try
