[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] DarkAngel:
Extended Reboot Menu TW 4.4.2 NG2 ( De-Odexed )

Well as the title states, this is for the STOCK NG2 TW ROM. Although this is De-Odexed, one could possibly use this on an Odexed system as long as same odex file is deleted. One would have to try and see. The Flashable ZIP is made taking into account the user is De-Odexed. I do not recommend flashing to a Custom Rom as the ROM may contain special permissions/policies ( if added ) that the Rom Developer may have implemented or even may have require so the Custom Rom may run or function properly. As the Dev first....

DISCLAIMER:

================================================== =================

================================================== =================

By YOU, the USER, flashing this file or manually pasting to modify your Android System, YOU understand and know what YOU are doing. I nor anyone will be held liable nor responsible for YOUR doing if your phone bricks. As always, as is suggested by many and myself, please make sure you perform a complete

NANDROID BACKUP

before flashing and/or modifying your OS or the mentioned stock .jar file. I also suggest YOU keep a separate copy of the stock .jar file handy, like in your External SDcard, if the phone decides not to boot up. Knowing this, YOU assume all responsibility for what happens as YOU, the USER, know and comprehend what YOU are doing and understand the consequences or severity of damages that can be brought to your

device by flashing or modifying your OS incorrectly.

You Have Been Warned !!

================================================== =================​

What's Needed/Recommended:

Rooted Devise ( to extract the needed files Manually for backup )

Custom Recovery ( TWRP or CWMR/PhilZ for Flashing the ZIP )

Aroma File Browser/Explorer ( file type browser in CWMR/PhilZ Recovery )

If you can do it via ADB Commands then all power to you.....

I provided BOTH , the modded Sprint .jar (android.policy.jar) file and the flashable zip (NG2_4wayrbt.zip) below. If the flashable ZIP does not work for you let me know please.

What To Do:

You have two choices on installing the .jar file. You can either

Flash the ZIP

in your Custom Recovery or you can use some form of File Explorer via Custom Recovery ( like the Aroma File Explorer for CWMR ) or other means to copy & paste or push the .jar file to system/framework/. If you decide to do this

manually

, you will then need to set the file permissions to the modified

android.policy.jar

file to 0644 and/or check mark off as the picture provided below shows using the method chosen through the

root permissions

it provides. You can rename the "stock" .jar file with " .bak " at the end so you don't have to delete it from the framework folder if you so choose.

Clear "

cache

" and/or "

dalvik cache

"

ONLY

.........after flashing or manually pasting the mod. The flashable clears cache for you already.

Words of caution

.....

​

if you attempt to do this manually and are

still actively booted in your Android OS

while modifying or deleting the .jar file, there is the highest probability that your phone will immediately reboot and you will not be able to boot up the OS again and remain stuck on the Samsung boot screen as the android.policy.jar is no longer visible to your OS. This is why you need to do this before booting up like in recovery.

================================================== =================
​

The .jar file is easily modified and the required files are easily found by searching the forums as I have. Use, extract, exhume, etc the files as you choose or please. I only ask to give proper credit.
