[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] diptenkrom:
well thanks! i am crossing my fingers now!

all of my edits failed. i used 7zip_x64 and wordpad at first flashing with philz touch latest. then i tried to fix the edits with notepad++ but the damage may have already been done. not sure if 7zip is not doing something right or not. i am rezipping with the file uploaded by cswroe and will report back the results as so far i get the same error as before. (status 6)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] diptenkrom:
with the new file it started installing, and had issue with a status 7 error i think i remember seeing that before having something to do with an unsupported part of the newer philz touch. so downgraded to an older philz touch and with cwm 6.0.4.7 i think. and boom works with the file that cswroe posted!

if anyone else is still having trouble. try that file with an older cwm/philz recovery. i keep 2 on my sd card, a new one and an old one, for this very reason.

BTW - i now learned that all text editors are not the same, cause i copied that file and looked at it with notepad++ and it LOOKS just like mine, but mine failed every time...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cswroe:
This one too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] rubbamade:
yours

looked exactly like mine...but yours let it flash...I used notepad then notepad++ but I had already edited it with notepad when I started using notepad++.

edit: flashed and booted. it must have something to do with the way it saves it using notepad++.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
Yeah, you could have fixed it in notepad++ by doing an extended find and replace of \r\n with \n.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cswroe:
Yeah, once you did it in notepad, the EOL characters were there. You could go to Edit/EOL Conversion and change it, but regardless, glad you got it to work!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] rubbamade:
ITS ALIVE!!!

everything works....Bluetooth internet tethering AND Wi-Fi work at the SAME TIME!!

I LOVE IT!

so far...lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] diptenkrom:
yeah. i have already run it through its rounds too. except bluetooth. but it is running well. btw you can update google now, and download the apk for the google now launcher and boom, like having the best of both worlds, looks like GPE but has the good camera and app support there! I already got my launcher changed over. this rom is just what I was looking for, a basic, fast, full featured rom with stock appearance (after changing the launcher).

it seems to work well with nova launcher too (if you dont like the now launcher), and i like setting nova up with 5 columns, so the icons are smaller and less obtrusive.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fenny:
[MENTION=2675647]elesbb[/MENTION] you should put /system/VODB/ back for the samsung keyboard.

I'm having an issue with Google account sync. The sync options are down to only 4, and Calendar and Contact sync are not there. I can't sync my contacts and calendar at the moment.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] diptenkrom:
+1 - i am having the same issue. not sure about calendar, but my contacts are not showing up. i tried disabling and resyncing, also tried to clear the data and cache for the contacts app. but still have no contacts list.. :(

one kinda small yet big issue. everything else seems awesome!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cswroe:
I flashed PA-Gapps Full Modular Package and all seems to be working fine now. I used Titanium Backup to get rid of all the other Google stuff I did not want.

The Micro Modular may work better...but all ready past that point.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] heatfan:
i get an error when i try to download the file!

never mind just read that is going to be re uploaded
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Okay, i changed the DL link, there is a mega link and an androidfilehost link. Everything should be good now no issues should be present :P sorry guys
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
I get process.android.process.acore FC after flashing that. I don't really know how to fix it now.

Nvm, a reboot did the trick. It's working fine now. That was odd.

---------- Post added at 08:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:16 AM ----------

You might wanna look into the Google Play services cuz a lot of sync options are missing :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] camineroga:
Can someone share Samsung keyboard please thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] WhosAsking:
My particular request is for some of the T-Mobile bloat since I happen to be on T-Mobile and actually like using WiFi Calling and Visual Voicemail. Perhaps if they can be broken up into pieces so we can mix and match.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Again, this is debloated. Its not an issue, it was removed intentionally. Why would you want your contacts stored on a global server any hacker wishes to access? :P If you want something, just ask :P

I'll make an aroma installer that will have the apks missing in it to re-add them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
That's already included and working
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cswroe:
Sorry, was trying to get in a few z's..... If a reboot did not fix it, I will have recommended clearing the data in contacts and contacts storage since that is related. Glad the reboot worked for you.

This ROM had been a lot of fun. Couldn't find the clock/alarm, but no problem, it reintroduced me to Timely which has really evolved as an application.

Just the speed and responsiveness plus the light weight.... Just a great experience for a ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] rubbamade:
I like the Samsung bloat. Particularly Watch On for its IR remote abilities. If you can make a flashable zip with that.

I tried installing Watch On and Peel to make it work. but when I try to open the app it just closes. no FC or error just closes. if you can make that work I would love it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] diptenkrom:
WI-FI calling works with this rom. all the tmobile apps are on the play store. i have a few of them up and running on mine right now, including visual voicemail.

have you tried downloading an add on pack from like wicked or dabomb roms and installing the parts you want? if not there are like 3 other stock 4.4 roms on this forum already that have most of the bloat there.

---------- Post added at 01:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:22 PM ----------

so that everytime i flash a rom i don't have to do anything to make them reappear. one of my favorite features of android as i dont have to worry about losing my contacts when i switch roms or phones, even without an SD card having to be there. wouls suck if it got hacked, but have not had an issue in 5 years of android use, and it isnt like i am a celebrity or have the president on my speed dial.

app selection of what is here is the best in my opinion. except sync. everything else that you took out i would not miss but visual voicemail, and that is on the play store...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
I noticed the status bar glitches from time to time. It flashes bavk and forth between transparent and pitch black. Not a big deal though, I just think you might wanna know.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] boni7010:
I cant download the rom ..... the explorer showme this :

what can I do please ????:confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] diptenkrom:
use the mirror. there are two links in the post. use the mega one instead
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] boni7010:
nop.... I try with all the mirrors but its the same......thanks:D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] WhosAsking:
Has anyone else had problems with the Calendar? I tried installing this and the PA GApps, but it seems I constantly get a Force Close notice on the Calendar whenever I reboot or come out of sleep. Anyone know what is happening?

UPDATE:NM. Found the problem. GApps created an app clash with the TW Calendar. Turned the GApps one off and will probably remove it later with TB.

PS. Other than that, I'm in happy-happy-joy-joy mode. Everything else is just peachy, even Google Wallet's Tap and Pay, which I missed from AOSP.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Visual Voicemail is included in the zip. Shouldn't need to download from the playstore. And all my contacts are on my sim card. I don't like syncing things. I'm in the process of creating the aroma installer. Should be able to go through and select what you want.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
This has happened on all 4.4 ROMs i have tried. Other than GPE. I need to watch the logcat when it happens to possibly figure it out. Im not sure why its doing that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] diptenkrom:
i didnt actually download it. my stuff was syncing and i assumed. so sorry if the info in my previous post was wrong.

also i just recently switched to tmo from sprint and there was no sim card to backup to. contact sync made that swap seamless though...

edit: would it be possible to add a resolution setting or something of that nature that would allow for smaller icons and thereby more on each screen? or is that launcher specific?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] WhosAsking:
A few new concerns I'm seeing.

First, it seems I've lost mobile reception with this ROM. I suspect I need to flash the new baseband to make this work. I'll attempt this later when I gain access to a 32-bit computer (the one I'm on is 64-bit).

Second, has anyone tried to use the hardware home button. It works for me when I hold it down to access the running apps list, but just pressing it doesn't do anything.

Finally, you note in your OP of a WarpDrive Xposed module. However, I don't see it anywhere. Where can I find the module so I can turn it on?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
You can change the dpi in the build.prop but the launcher can also change the amount of rows and columns.

Click the xposed installer in the app drawer, install xposed then enable the warpdrive model. And you have a launcher set as your default right? Do the back and menu buttons work?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Seems like a bad flash. I haven't had any issue with either reception or the home button. If anything, I'm seeing a speed increase with data.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Here you go.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/4leo87m0i5vwh3l/2014-03-16-16-51-36.txt

I can't upload it on XDA, sorry. The one in Dropbox is the logcat.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheArtiszan:
How would one go about locking it into LTE only mode?

My device don't seem to switch to LTE since I installed this and the old servicemode method isn't working.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Naddict:
thread lightly cleaned of criticism and the like...all members need to remember that when and if you try to flash anything, you take chances...

If you do not like something, exercise the privilege to move on, no one cares if you are leaving.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Double check your APN settings. I did set it to fast.t-mobile.com so it should be using LTE if you have it in the area.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheArtiszan:
Thanks, didn't think of that.

That seems to look okay though.

Did you modify the feature.xml file to remove the hidden apns or is there anything like that?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Hmm, im not really sure why its doing this.. Bizarre.

I have noticed that if you pull it down directly from the status bar, it doesnt do it. But if you use a gesture or invoke the method then it causes that weird glitch.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Nope. There shouldn't be any hidden apns.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dyangster:
Help

I would like to try using this rom. Is there a quick NOOB guide on how to flash these types of custom rom, besides "install rom" from the instructions on the original post?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xda23:
What clock mods are you guys using?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
What do you mean?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] faiyo:
This was the most trouble free rom i've ever installed. Only one thing needed was a link in the first post that gapps needed to be installed separately . It's not clear since play store and gmail were included. I was wondering why the hell i couldnt get my contacts. Anyways I'm just so happy to finally move to kitkat
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] sneakerhead27:
There's a ROM in the i9505 section that has a s5 themed 4.4.2 TW for the s4.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] WhosAsking:
OK, looks like the bars issue fixed itself. Probably a localized outage that caused the problem. As for the home button, I narrowed it down to a TB Settings Snapshot that messed up the home button behavior. I tried again and was less aggressive restoring settings, and this seems to have kept the home button working.

That still leaves the issue of the WarpDrive Xposed module, which I still cannot locate. Was it supposed to be a custom-built Xposed or, as I believe it to be, a module that should've been included as a system app? If the module is missing, perhaps you can link a copy of the apk to be added manually as a user app, if that is okay.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
You have to go to xposed installer and enable the module as well as installing the framework for xposed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] sneakerhead27:
Everything works great and ROM is super fast! but my contacts aren't syncing.. O.o

There's no option to sync contacts in Google account
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shortbus-Driver:
You need to download gapps
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] androidtoy09:
Thanks for the great work OP!

If possible, please include stock TW keyboard. I've grown accustomed to it :) OR you can just include the APK in separate .zip flash

Thanks again
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Go back a couple of pages and there was a post with a link to the gapp package.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] f10a:
Does this have WiFi calling?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
I'm working on it. I removed it because it requires a million and three files to work. A lot of megabytes :P

I also finished the bloat installer but forgot to upload it last night. I'll do that when I get home from work.

Yes it does.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] WhosAsking:
That's what I've been trying to tell you. It's not there. The only modules Xposed Installer shows are the ones I install myself. It starts out blank. I tried a module search for WarpDrive but turned up a blank. IOW (and note I've installed this three times already), the module is missing. I've looked through the phone high and low without success, even checking the app manifest from TB. Is there a way to check if the ZIP I downloaded included the WarpDrive module APK?

PS. A question on another matter. I use PhilZ as my custom recovery. I wasn't able to install this until I turned off the check for old installer binary (before, it would just say some parts of it didn't work), so I thought I'd let you know in case it indicates something you can do to improve on the script in future versions.

---------- Post added at 12:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:09 PM ----------

It does, and I've been using it myself. Good to still have it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
Yeah, I'm not seeing the warp drive module either, thought I was going crazy. Also, I had to uncheck (or check) whatever the opposite of the default is, just to install as well. Got error code 7 while seeing permissions.. using the 3-13 build of philz based on cwm 6.0.4.7

Also, fir anyone who needs Google contact sync, just copy Googlecontactssyncadapter.apk from another Rom into your system/app dir, set permissions to 644, reboot, and profit.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] WhosAsking:
Intersting idea. It made me realize an alternative solution. The same apk can usually be found in a GApps install zip, under /system/app. I tried pulling the apk out of that, doing what you said, and sure enough it worked. So now you can include GApps installs as well as ROMs with GApps in them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
I stand corrected :o

The apk IS missing from the zip *facepalm* somewhere during my debloat testing i must have forgot to re-add it. Anyway, its a simple apk that can be installed so i'll attach it to the OP. Sorry guys -.- Im a fail xD
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] WhosAsking:
It's fine. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going crazy. This should knock out the last of my concerns for the time being, meaning I can take my time and settle in again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Lol, you weren't going crazy, i was xD

I've attached the apk in the OP simply download and install it like a normal app. Then it will appear in app drawer and xposed modules list. I feel stupid :p :cyclops::silly:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
I added the bloat installer to the second post so you guys can pick the apks you wish to add back to the ROM
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cheerup38:
does the bloat include the googlesync apk? or is that coming later?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheArtiszan:
By chance how did you get Bluetooth tethering working on this?

I'm tinkering with the base rom from fenny and can't seem to get it working.

The connected Bluetooth device don't see that profile.

Any help would be appreciated so I can learn.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] HKSpeed:
Do I flash the bloat installer after or before flashing the ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cheerup38:
After
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
After flashing the ROM. For the ROM will erase the system partition.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Corwinder:
Hmmm, me I think I'll pull the apks out I want and install them instead of the full bloat. Part of the reason I installed this rom was all the bloat is gone. Now the fun part is identifying the individual apks I want.

Guess that won't work since the rom itself is deodexed and the apk files are all still odex. Time to brush up on how to deodexed apks. lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Dude its aroma installer. You scroll through the ones you want, click them, then click next and it will install them :P plus the ROM is not deodexed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] diptenkrom:
i assume that you can dirty flash 1.0.1 over 1.0? gunna download just want confirmation...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Corwinder:
My bad. Haven't dealt with a zip this way before. Normally I just use Clockwork mod recovery and install the zip but Clockwork Mod Recovery sees the zip as a folder and looks inside for a zip and not finding one it doesn't do anything. Gonna delete and redownload and see what happens.

---------- Post added at 09:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:02 PM ----------

Ok, that worked. I feel so bad. I have no clue why it didn't work the first time. I love your rom and love the way you did the bloat.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Yes nothing major changed. Almost all my updates will be dirty-flashable coming from the previous version.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Haha don't feel bad! Its all good! Just glad someone likes my ROM xD

And i've never seen CWM behave that way before. Strange.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] diptenkrom:
thanks for that. i figured that was the case, but i didn't expect an update this soon, and there wasn't any info so i thoguht i would ask!

ad me to the "fan list" cause i love this rom so far. i have not ever really been satisfied with a TW rom since my Epic 4G like 3.5 years ago. although i did change the launcher, which i really like the google now launcher. just wish there was an easy way to make the icons smaller with that launcher (5 columns).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] marscandybars:
is the wifi tethering hack built into this rom?

Is there a suggested modem for this rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] diptenkrom:
You can use whatever modem you like. The new one is working well for me though. I have better signal and have read others say the same.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] johnny crapple:
You can make the Google now launcher use 5 columns and alot more with the xposed module called "xposed gel settings" or "xgels" it works nice.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] diptenkrom:
Thanks for the tip about the xposed gel settings!

It did the trick, just what I was after. No more huge icons and I have 5 across on home screens and appdrawer. Was looking through there but not seeing anything in short descriptions that sounded right.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] marscandybars:
and as for the wifi tethering hack? Is it built into this rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] faiyo:
I've flashed the new modem but when i came out of the locker room today (coming from no signal area) it got stuck on edge for 10 mins until i drove out of the area into a new tower zone. Somethings not right there :( I think the same thing happens when i leave the garage at work but it switches towers quicker because i'm closer to the next one and already driving. I dont think this happened on 4.3

Also another thing thats weird, and this happened for months on omega 4.3 and MK2 modem, is i can't send/receive mms if im connected to wifi. I was hoping a tmobile rom and kitkat would fix it :( I've got to turn off wifi and then it will succeed on the first try. I tried with hangouts and samsung's message app. Wifi calling is disabled. Anyone got an idea?? I'm pretty sure both these are bugs not caused by this rom but this whole time i was hoping an all new tmobile rom would be sturdier
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kim621973:
I've been trying to flashing rom, but it failed on beginning.

I booted into recovery after clear wipe and factory reset.

I am using TWRP 2.6.3.1 recovery.

Any idea why it happened?

Thank you in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
You should read the OP. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] WhosAsking:
I think you have to turn WiFi Calling ON. IINM, it's not just calls that go through the link but SMS and MMS, too.

---------- Post added at 07:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:48 AM ----------

I was myself confused on the "all work" bullet point. I had to wonder if it meant that they "all work" as in they are enabled in the system but T-Mobile will still balk at them or "all work" as in they bypass the T-Mobile guard. I am now assuming you refer to the latter case.

---------- Post added at 07:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:51 AM ----------

I may be wrong, but I think the installer script for the ROM uses some unusual or antiquated assert checks or the like. I will speak from my own experience. I use PhilZ which is a CWM variant. I could not install the ROM myself normally. I had to turn off an option called "Don't Allow Old Update Binary" before it would install. Check to see if TWRP has a similar option for you to toggle. Then try again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kim621973:
TWRP RECOVERY doesn't had an option like you have it on Philz. :eek:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] HKSpeed:
anyone recommend Xposed modules that compliment this ROM? So far I'm thinking of Wanam.

What is the keyboard included in this ROM? I've never seen it before.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
The keyboard is Swype. As for the xposed modules, wanam is good.. what are you wanting to do?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] HKSpeed:
I'm used to GravityBox on AOSP ROMS, so i'm looking to replicate most of the option from it. I also want an Exchange email security bypass.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] rubbamade:
is there anything huge in 1.1? We already got it syncing with google and have it installed. with the warpdrive.apk and some tmobile bloat.

because 1.0 is working beautifully. ive only have 1 random reboot. and that was about 20 - minutes after initial install. 2 days ago.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Corwinder:
I never had the random reboot but I'm also loving the 1.0. Does anyone recommend installing the 1.01 version if we have 1.0 installed?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
XuiMod is pretty nifty and wanam has an option for the exchange security bypass. I don't know if it works because I don't notice a difference between bypassed or not, but I know the option is there.
