[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
I'm a recognized dev at MIUI but not at XDA although I have over 30 completed projects that have been source built; and while it's true that the S4 ROMs I've released are only 98% functional (no tether) a LOT of the projects I have done are 100% functional.

A lot of the tools and firmware I use source-builders are not familiar with; the short of it? there's like a handful of people who do rare firmware ports, and even less people who can fork across a wide range of devices.

I happen to source build as well as port, and most of the people rocking that 'XDA developer' title are just source building and not putting in as much effort as I am that's a reality; notice any other ColorOS topics?

I might hold the most ports of MIUI period; does that sound like someone who is not a dev. lol

I could flood this forum with sht that would work in every regard; 4.4 and everything and it would look just like the AOSP/CM everyone has come to know and love; just because I have a cheap phone doesn't mean I have to feel it's a piece of garbage too so I only do rare firmware ports; not CM-variant-101.zip or whatever, SlimBean or w/e isn't impressing anybody and it doesn't interest me.

I don't use 4.4 because a 4.4 firmware worth using hasn't been released yet in my opinion, I'll use 4.4 once MIUI v6 is released in a MEANINGFUL way for it
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
More than anything I'm expressing disdain for people who are total hacks and frankly not very good that hold this title

Either everyone involved in dev should have the title or ONLY people who are source-building at a CODE level should, our source-builders deserve the title 100% but when you see idiots with it, it diminishes it completely

waiting for Lewaos :D:D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
It's a MIUI clone, I was thinking of actually doing HTC Sense or BaiduOS

The more I see of Lewa the less interested I am, it's really like a cheap MIUI right now; apply the Lewa theme to experience Lewa lol

Plus I don't know, if someone else wants to do a rare firmware port it's almost uncool of me to do all of them it kind of hurts aspiring developers
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] fedef12evo:
if really can port HTC sense of BaiduOS you are a god!!! please do it, either htc sense or baiduos it's the same they are both wonderful roms :D

i think you are one of the best dev
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] fartlec:
if you make a working htc sense port, you'll see a jump in thread access and download numbers. granted. that's the way to celebrity. just kidding.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] bungadudu:
This rom looks nice!

A good port of sense 6 (along with the stock HTC apps) (i dare you! [emoji1]), updated, maintained , maybe more popular ports (so for you to be known as the king of ports) will certainly bring you closer to that dev title [emoji6]
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] xchatter:

People, you are flooding this thread with irrelevant discussions.

Please comment the ROM and let's report some bugs in order for the developer to make it better.

After all this thread is about this ColorOS rom right ?

I flash roms now for so many years, did a full wipe, and had too many fcs and its not only me, and no headphone support is a big deal breaker.

Same problem here
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] fartlec:
no offence meant, sir. i just wanted to report that i don't have fcs. about headphones, actually i don't use them, so I can't tell. heck, this is the first release
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] nofx161:
Man u cannot tell me that u dont have fcs öooks like u didnt tested the rom well enouth, first release is ok to me and i know there are bugs, and i report them, thats all

Has anyone got this to flash on Tmo S4? If so, how? Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] alex29:
work on s4 but i have problems with the language(chinese) in some parts of menu. so i can tell more (back to my v25 omega). Is a nice looking rom no fc so far
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] dawgdoc96:
I keep getting status 7 error. Tried cwm, twrp, philz.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] srimay:
From what I've followed, no. But a T-MO version is in the works. That's what I'm waiting for.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Hardcore69er:
if you somehow managed to get an HTC Sense port on the S4 or any Galaxy device for that matter you will see some awards/rewards lol believe me.

we gave it a go a few months ago.. got it to boot but wasn't very functional at all.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] alex29:
I JUST COME FROM OMEGA v25 with XXUFNBE BASEBAND (BOOLOADER AND MODEM)

AND FLASHED THIS ROM https://www.mediafire.com/?ed71tq819x40y55 WITH TWRP V2.6.3.1 (FULL WIPE) REBOOT AND WORKS BUT AS I SAID I HAVE PROBLEM WITH THE LANGUAGE SO I GO BACK TO MY OMEGA!

wont flash for me error code 7
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] srimay:
It looks like you quoted me earlier...before the unified device builds it was impossible to flash cm asop from international to tmo. (Unless you removed a script from the ROM before you flashed.) TW Roms weren't an issue. This one is. Just stating facts
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] xchatter:
whatsapp

Anyone has a working Whatsapp ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
The real question is do you have access to the EXACT SAME CODEBASE the sense or TW ROM uses?

If the answer is yes then it shouldn't take very long for you to get a fully working port, when you use varied codebases you're going to run into a fkton of issues that have to be resolved manually but you can minimize the damage by a lot if you use the same codebase.

If you didn't use an identical base then you may want to try that and revisit your project if you still have the interest to complete it; most people wade through **** with .smali folder structure and all this when these differences could be nonexistent if you repo off the AOSP branch the company built from

Edit: look how many low-end phones have sense and TW, there are JDQ39E AOSP based TW that are on lower-end phones that can be suitable for porting; if you can get access to it's stockrom via adb pull or otherwise
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Hardcore69er:
No I didnt have access. the time of the project there wasn't much to build the ROM off of. it was a broken source. I don't know. maybe we can give it a go. together.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] tomorio:
I'm having the same problem as a lot of others. I've used latest Cwm, I tried latest twrp. Status 7 errors on both . Shame really cause it looks pretty nice
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mistertac:
Thought he already fixed that.. But in Philz ( cwm ) if you unchecked used old updater script ( something to that effect ) it should install for you no problem. I just reflashed the VZW one without a problem
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] initial37:
gapps

GAPPS ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] tomorio:
Well I tried it after when he'd said it had been fixed but no joy so will give that a go. Where do I find that option? Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mistertac:
I'm trying to remember exactly lol I use Philz and I believe it's right on the main screen once in recovery. Just look for something like... Use old updater script... something to that effect and unchek it and try to reflash. It won't have any negative effects if that doesn't work and usually defaults back if you go into recovery to flash anything.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] tomorio:
Well I've had a look round the options in philz recovery but can't find that option. Really sorry if I'm just being thick .. Lol
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mistertac:
Try updating your Philz. I don't recall what version he added that option to. It's definitely in the latest release
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] tomorio:
Ok brilliant. Updating my recovery worked. I still couldnt find that option but it flashed normally.

Now my problem is that the color os opp thingy is all in korean or whatever language it is. Im guessing you don't recall need to use it though?

Thanks again for all the help.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mistertac:
Yea well this very talented dev said after he works out more bugs he's going to translate more into English . all the Chinese is a tad overwhelming lol until then we just have to fiddle with things and hope for the best [emoji16]
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] tomorio:
Cool. I'll definitely give it a go after more tweaks have been done. Right now I shall stick with my current ROM until another update has been done. It is a great ROM but like you said, quite an overwhelming amount of Chinese/Korean. Great work Dev look forward to more tweaking on this

P.s. thanks for all the help too.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mitsosssss:
i don't have root is this normal?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] tomorio:
I didn't either. And superSU couldn't install the needed binary. Also mobile Odin didn't work on the ROM as it couldn't recognise the phone. Easy enough to re root through Odin on PC I'm sure but wasn't going to bother until ROM is further developed + translated.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Beefheart:
I'd like to try this but have no desire to go back to a 4.3 rom, never mind 4.2.2. A shame but hopefully it's base is eventually updated.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
You know it's funny you'd say that because earlier today I was thinking the same thing, my next release will be a 4.4 rom

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] BlackAngel1971:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] tomorio:
Good luck. Look forward to trying it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
Honestly custom firmware porters are mucho lucky to have people like bmarko and datagutt around, who are really authorities on source-building and firmware porting in general.

Afaik Datagutt actually got V6s RIL to work which is not really that small of a feat, Bmarko identified and fixed the blur error in MIUI and both are transparent about their work
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] BlackAngel1971:
[MENTION=4963813]Tquetski[/MENTION]

Is still expect a new version? Maybe the update to 4.4.2?;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
Maybe, I'm still trying to find a proper 4.4 codebase which requires a LOT of repo syncing and bandwidth pulls esp. because V6 hasnt been publicly released; I'm going way off the reservation with this but I just don't know when MIUI 4.4 will be officially released so.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] xchatter:
4.4 not important

4.4 not so much of a pain to me personally.

A version with bugs smashed and everything working is much better :victory:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :

Is it the Miui v6 ??
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sker100:
I've been using your miui rom and doesn't know this os, e see on youtube and seems good. For what i've bee watching this rom have a little bugs but i will give it a try.

Thanks for your work and give the s4 different kind of roms
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
Ok I was able to have a frank discussion, V6 is still not out but 4.4 V5 in a capacity on the Nexus II; It's confirmed as not 'really' being V6.

the Tablet V5 doesn't look right on any non-tab device; the layout is wrong regretfully I'll have to wait until a stable 4.4 V5 or V6 leaks for phone
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] heblu:
Thanks for your effort!!

Maybe until then you can help us having a better colour OS? Please...

It seems to be a great one except a few bugs...

Most annoying for me is that head set is not working.

May the force be with you :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Wiley87:
It keeps saying I cannot install, unknown package with the android opened up with the red insides.

Anything I can do?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
Headset might require a rebuilt of the base ROM, does it work on my MIUI?

Translating will either require me to use google or uh; a good friend. I guess I could ask him if he'd be willing to help localize this lol
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] heblu:
I did not try MIUI yet on this device. Anyone around did?

My knowledge into this is very limited...

But you will have my deepest appreciation if you can solve this problem

It would be sad to see such an interesting ROM dissapear :)

Do you have a link? I couldnt find that anywhere.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] nofx161:
http://pan.baidu.com/s/1jGkeB46 this is the link from oppo itselve to the beta 2.0 for the I9500 dont flash it on the i9505 i did it , wasnt that good idea,

it is on android 4.2.2 but ass it was stated on the forum it is cos 2 and the build.prop confirms that with ro.build.version.opporom=V2.0.0

so if anyone can port it , and i guess since its 4.2.2 too like this rom it should be no problem to port this 2.0 beta to our device.

have fun, regards
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] peeweegary:
I hope this ROM continues to be developed. This is a great alternative to MIUI and the battery seems to good. Once the messaging apps (Whatsapp and Facebook) issues are addressed, I would honestly use this as my daily driver. Great Job and thanks for the ROM!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Tom-Helge:
Why not port the newest ColorOS v2.0.0i Beta version (that is to the Oppo Find 7a) to the Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505) instead if that is possible (might be impossible to port because of different hardwares)?

The ColorOS v2.0.0i Beta is available to be downloaded here: http://www.oppoforums.com/threads/find-7-coloros-2-0-0i-beta.11926/

There are atleast 3 people working on porting it right now. Be patient
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Tom-Helge:
Oh sweet. I'm in no hurry, so for me they can rather use a good time to port it good rather than do it in a hurry and come out with a half baked port that is full of bugs (now ColorOS v2.0.0i is a beta version to begin with, so some bugs might be there).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] heblu:
Splendid news !

Time is not important, only development :)

Many many thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Tom-Helge:
As alot of peoples here already are on a Galaxy S4 with an Android 4.4.2 ROM & bootloader, most peoples will most likely not be able to go back to Android 4.3 or lower (like me, lol), so it might be a bit problematic for someone to install the ColorOS v2.0.0i Beta ROM as it's Android 4.3.

But who knows, someone might come ut with a magic trick somewhere, hopefully.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] nofx161:
Why should this be any problem ? I flashed so many 4

4.2 and then this color os which is 4.2 and wasnt any problem at all. And i flashed stock 4.4.2 bevore o flashed cos 4.2 so i dont think anyone should. Have a problem flashing.

This rom and for instance this MIUIv5 build aren't based on Touchwiz but aosp.It's not a problem to downgrade android version ,bootloader doesn't interferes here.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Battlehero:
The compatability of the ROM is dependant on the kernel, if the kernel is coded so that it doesn't require a new or old bootloader the ROM will function normally. This is why many 4.4.2 Touch wiz ROMs work on the old bootloader.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] nofx161:
