[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] WhosAsking:
Any ROM that allows WiFi Calling is NOT going to be small, full stop. This is because only TouchWiz ROMs (and then only those before 4.4 KitKat) will support WiFi Calling (T-Mobile uses TW libraries for it). The best you can hope for is to look for a Debloated TW ROM (even these can get big, around 1GB, compared to AOSP-based ROMs which only tip the scales at around 150MB or so), and even then you'll probably have to add in the T-Mobile bloat to get WiFi Calling working.

I'm not too well versed in Link2SD myself since I've never had a need to transfer apps to the SD (anything I use that relies on big data can already use the SD card itself), but as I understand it, even from the beginning, that system has had lots of compatibility issued.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Just a head's up about threads like these...they are not allowed on XDA. Any thread of the variety of "what ROM is best for me" is not permitted on XDA as it will always degrade into a battle between loyal ROM users ovver which is best.

The best ROM for your needs might be the worst ROM for my needs. So these threads lead nowhere and get locked.

The ONLY way to determine what the best ROM for you is, is to try them out and see.

However, as stated above, if you need Wifi calling then you will need a TouchWiz based ROM. That negates it being a small ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] NiMaD83:
Im on the new wicked rom and still get issues with Link2SD. And it seems like when i format then flash rom it doesnt delete it? Like it just installs over. Cause there just seems to be quite a bit of used space unaccounted for somewhere.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] NiMaD83:
Understood, it was more of what was smallest to install though.

Honestly i haven't really found a benefit of wifi calling.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] braschlosan:
Do you want 4.3 or 4.4?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] NiMaD83:
Whatever is the smallest install.

I have Wicked installed atm and i turned on Multi-window feature and had everything freeze and stop running and i mean everything. Had to take the battery out and then it would get stuck on the samsung boot logo and no further. The only way i could get it to load back was cleaning up the dalivik in recovery and fixing permissions. Then i got back but a couple things still stopped. Atleast nothing important.

What is up with custom roms and things stopping? Am i putting to much strain on it? Every custom rom has done this to me so far.

*edit - still getting stuck at samsung boot logo when trying to do a normal reset :/

I'm enjoying the cyanogen nightlies:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] radeon_x:
Alright, this is an interesting one.

So I was on CM 10.2 for the longest time, then I tried CM 11, then finally used SlimKat for a while. Everything was working pretty well on the 4.4 ROMs, except for occasional LTE drops where it just refused to go back to LTE.

Anyway... I decided to go back to a 4.3 ROM. I flashed SlimBean 4.3 first via TWRP. No issues on boot up, LTE works, IMEI intact, WiFi, data, all working. I'm also able to sign in to my Google account - but it only partially works (see screenshot). I also can't sign into any Google services... Play Store, Play Music, Ingress... I just keep getting the "problem communicating with Google servers" error.

Now, I've since tried CM 10.2 again and I've even Odin'ed back to TW 4.3 (MK5). I've fully wiped each time - including full data and sdcard wipe. Every single 4.3 ROM is giving the connection error. I tried going back to a KitKat ROM (CM11) - and it works! No sign in error!

Any ideas what could be causing this?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Lakewell:
This same thing happened to me just last night on my Galaxy Nexus after attempting to go back to 4.2.2. The problem turned out to be something to do with 2-step verification. I went to accounts.google.com and disabled 2-step verification, deleted my account on my phone, rebooted, then added my account again and it worked as it was supposed to.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] radeon_x:
Wow, I owe you one. I would never have thought to try that... But that was indeed my problem. Thanks!

Edit: So after setting up my account on my phone, I then re-enabled 2-factor verification and the error comes back. Did you ever manage to re-enable 2-factor for you account and have it work on your non-KitKat phone?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Lakewell:
I did re-enable it and it works, although I did change it from text message to google authenticator.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aEx155:
Hello,

I had to reflash CM 10.2.1-d2att after a failed OTA 4.4 update but I haven't been able to properly sync my Google account with 2-step auth enabled. Wiping and re-flashing new ROMs hasn't fixed anything so my temporary fix has been to disable the 2-step auth. I have tried switching code methods (from app to text message and back) but that hasn't worked. Syncing with password only then enabling 2-step also fails.

Any other suggestions?

This is based off AOSP and not Touchwiz. So you wnt be having the default Samsung features. U can try 3rd party apps for the same.

Well what started to be a simple solution turned into a cold reset and re installment of apps. I felt I needed a phase 1 Spb Backup with no email, incase I upgrade again to another ROM. It's always good idea to have a clean self extract restore with hacks, and configurations, and some utilities, etc.

Im still curious on an answer from Spb Software company on deleting older accounts in Diary.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zombtastic:
I've recently been getting into more security cautious habits with encryption and what not, due to this whole NSA/Big-brother is watching business... But I have a question (more may pop up as this discussion goes on). Sorry if I seem noob-y, I am still getting a hang of all this encryption business. But here's my first round (regarding just the files being backed up):

If I go ahead and do a full phone encryption with my GN2 where will I stand as far as backups to Dropbox/Copy/Google Drive/etc.?

I currently have photos and such backing up to copy, and I often move backups made through recovery to Dropbox and such. If I were to have photos automatically sync to copy or move system backups to dropbox wouldn't that render them basically useless as I am assuming they move out of the phone encrypted (not being decrypted as they exit).

The photos would be unusable anywhere besides my phone right? So moving them off my phone to share vacation photos for instance would be impossible, and if my phone were to crash they'd be irretrievable? Making the backup process pointless.

Wouldn't the back up be rendered useless as well, exactly when I might need said backup? If my phone were to ever crash or die for some reason, I would lose the encryption key, would even be able to do a full system restore through the recovery? It would seem that the encryption key wouldn't be kept with those back up files, so while it might place everything back in its correct place, it would still be unreadable. Or does it maybe keep the key in system files somewhere so that a full backup would restore the key as well?

And my second round of questions (regarding recoveries and what not):

I am also under the impression that I would not be able to flash through custom recovery either as the internal SD would be inaccessible from the recovery being it doesn't have the encryption key. I am currently running OmniROM and it is in a nightly stage still for my phone. I wouldn't be able to update nightly would I? I am assuming since it basically flashes/overwrites system each time, that I would be losing my encryption key and making everything besides system unusable then right?

And what about downloading ROMs to flash/update directly to my phone? As I download them from in browser or another app and they go to the default /downloads folder they would be encrypted. They wouldn't be accessible from there in recovery, but if I were to try and move them out of internal SD to the external SD they would retain encryption and still be inaccessible? So the only way to download ROMs and updates would be from PC and only move them to the external SD?

Overall, this seems to be crippling a lot of the way I use my phone...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zombtastic:
Bump?

Sorry, this is already getting buried and I kinda want to know what's going on before I go ahead and do this...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zombtastic:
Amazing post by the way! It does seem very helpful.

BUT it's very funny you mention it not working. Because that's exactly what happened. After not getting a response here or in the ROM's forum for a few days, I decided to just take the plunge and do it. I was just planning on testing everything out my self and figuring it out as I went. The first time it seemed fine, the encryption went through it seemed.

Being as I didn't know any of the info you just enlightened me with, I did fear that nothing was truly encrypted though. Everything was transferring to my computer with a drag and drop and working fine, so I was afraid (without evidence) that nothing was truly encrypted. I asked on the ROM's forum again (still waiting for an answer).

That night, my phone was left plugged in charging, yet some how had turned off in the night. I awake to my phone asking for an encryption key. I enter my key in to no avail. Nothing works and my phone is left unable to boot. It was utterly denying my password. I had to reflash. I asked about that in the forums as well, whether that was normal or if encryption was maybe not implemented yet, etc. The dev running the nightlies for my device has responded to the forum multiple times but not to me. Another user mentioned it might be that it is now merged together as a Galaxy Note 2 ROM and not specifically a T-mobile Galaxy Note 2 ROM (might be possible. Idk.).

Now, I have tried to re-encrypt. Multiple times. But I cannot for the life of me get it to even start now. Every time I go to start the encryption process it shows me the fullscreen image of the android unzipped horizontally (at which point it is supposed to reboot and start encrypting) and it hangs/sits there forever. Not rebooting, not anything. If I hit the back button, the image disappears and it goes back to my phone. Working perfectly fine, like it never even started doing anything. I am not doing anything differently. I don't know what could be happening to stop it from even getting as far as it did last time. Unless the devs maybe started working on it and have disabled it for the time being/screwed it up worse, I dunno.

Not you got me crafting a tin-foil hat...
