[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] GalaxyMasterI337:
The ultimate GPE for Safestrap!

Thanks Joe-Tech for the awesome base!

UPDATE 2:

Google Experience has been updated to v0.3 FINAL!

This means that there will be no more updates until Joe-Tech fixes the WiFi or

USB transfer bugs, or he releases an update to his ROM (the base of GglExp).

The ROM is now completely stable with no bugs unless found by YOU! :D

Here is a list of the updated features and whatnot that come in v0.3:

- Decreased size of ROM zip by 200MB!

- Added a new and improved boot animation.

- Fixed the Chrome force close error.

- Fixed the no root error (see install instructions)

UPDATE:

Google Experience is, as of now on v0.2-1! I skipped

v0.2 because when I went to test it, it soft bricked my phone! So that was a flop!

The updates that v0.2-1 have brought are the following:

- Gapps are now included in the ROM!

- SuperSU does not have to be flashed seperately!

- Joe-Tech's SMS and keyboard are removed.

- More bloat removed, more Google added!

What is Google Experience? It's a GPE ROM on steroids!

I was using Joe-Tech's GPE 4.4.4, when I thought to myslef, 'It's called a Google Play

Edition, but there aren't many Google Apps! It doesn't feel like a Nexus, or a GPE

device!' And so I set out to create the perfect Google Experience for Safestrap users.

FEATURES:

Nexus 5 or GPE device experience

Rooted

Gapps now built in!

Deodexed

Zipaligned

Speed (fastest ROM on S4)

Custom Bootanim (now 190MB smaller!)

Safestrap 3.72 ready

Based on Joe-Tech's GPE 4.4.4

Removed unnecessary bloat

FAQ:

Q: What sets Google Experience apart from, say, Joe-Tech's GPE 4.4.4?

A: Google Experience offers a pure, consistent, well... Google Experience

like none other. Every update brings updated Gapps, and every app Google rolls

out, I aim to provide in Google Experience. I want to make you feel like you are

holding a Nexus 5 or a Google Play Edition phone in your hand.

Q: What modules are included in the Xposed flashable zip in the 'Extras'?

A: There are currently 15 modules as well as the installer in there. The modules

include: Advanced Power Menu, Android Tuner Free, App Ops, Cool Tool, Cyber-shot

Xposed, Force Translucent Statusbar, GravityBox, HKTheme Manager, MinMinGuard,

XDictionary, XInstaller, Xposed Additions, Xprivacy and XuiMod.

Q: What do you plan on developing next?

A: An Xperia ROM for Safestrap users on the AT&T S4. I think it would be cool

to take Joe-Tech's base, yet again, and remove the bloat, create an Xperia

overlay with the stock Z2 apps, and then build it and let people flash it. I'm not

even sure if there is already an Xperia ROM for the S4 out there yet.
