Ok for those having trouble I checked the files in the Non Flashable zip and the folder that has the SecThemechooser2 apk . The actual folder should be named the same with the number 2 at the end. Reuploaded the files so link should have all files correct. Sorry

Pretty sure you can because all it changes is the icons. I tried on 4x5 and 5x5 and it worked

Themes don't even work I tried and can't find where it puts the chooser all good thanks

do you have your testers yet?

If not I'll give it a go.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
This is how n where i set it
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] xyojimbox:
I followed the instructions and got it to install on vison x.... make sure in the themechooser zip you copy the other files and make sure you put them in the same folder the one they are in is called.. like open etc copy that snd go find the etc folder and paste there same with other one.....

Did you see the post above this one? Make sure you copy the file from the zip in the etc file and the csc folder make sure you paste them in those folders in the phone. And it will be there... i rebooted also and then checked and had it.

ready to test.

Id like to test this out if you can send me a link whenever you get to it. Great work btw I know everyone appreciates it, especially me.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jivany:
I would also love to test the rom and report feedback also log cats! Thanks
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Mediocrates:
Lol, hate to be a killjoy, but I could have sworn OP said , "PM me if you can test". Keeps the thread cleaner..
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] phonetec:
I had this issue at first and it was because when I pasted the floating_feature.xml file it said there was already one there and if I wanted to overwite it, I did, I checked the permissions and they were correct at the time, so I rebooted and the theme chooser was not there, I checked the file permissions again and they were incorrect, once I corrected them and rebooted I was able to apply themes, so check your file permissions.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ianmb:
Once again I would like to emphasize that if you have problems with the Theme Chooser PLEASE keep it in the PM's. [MENTION=1503720]tx_dbs_tx[/MENTION] needs test results and I feel like this topic has hijacked the main purpose.

Thank you all!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
Since the last couple of pages seems to be mostly discusion about this theme app, could you guys please start a new thread for this? There's really too much distraction from the actual test rom itself. I really wanted to focus on the actual rom itself so I could get feedback from the testers without off topic discussions such as theming, modding, etc... which is really getting in the way and slowing things down for an actual public release. I really need more feedback and reports from all of you testers who have been running this rom continuously for the past couple of days. PM or post here ONLY if you are a tester and have appropriate input. Thanks for understanding.

I will build a debloated version once I get enough feedback from the testers and feel is ready to go.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Ilusiil:
I would love the opportunity to test this ROM.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
I think I have more than enough testers. Also, I expect to allow public access soon anyway.

I do have a question for testers. When first opening Google Play store and you try to type in the search box at the top, did you all notice the samsung keyboard closing immediately when trying to type in the search box? It happens to me but the way to fix it is to go into settings and uncheck a predictive text option. Go to Language and input/Samsung keyboard/Predictive text and uncheck "Personalized data". It seems to only happen in Google Play store. Does anybody have this problem in anywhere else besides Google Play store?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Soulforged666:
I had that issue but then I went into Text Messaging and once you click the Samsung box it never shows back up I had that issue when I first used the BOB7 Slim Rom as well. Sorry I did not mention it I was going to then I wanted to make sure I checked the other portions first and this one slipped my mind.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
This rom is now public. OP has been updated. Thanks for helping test this rom. Look for a debloated version and my X-Series rom in the near future. Enjoy.

I am giving permission to use this rom as a base for other dev's roms. If you use this rom for your base olease give me credit. I highly recommend that you do use this rom for your base as it's bug-free and pre-tested.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] flyhighx:
I had this problem just yesterday coincidentally. However, it was on a stock, unrooted Samsung Galaxy tab II. A reboot fixed the problem for me. I'm not sure whether that info helps at all but it may mean that it's an issue not related to your ROM.

I'll be installing your rom in a few days Btw. I thank you for your efforts. I'll gladly donate after I install.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
Love the ROM 100% no issues, thanks OP and glad I could assist in the testing.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
The samsung keyboard predictive text bug exists in the stock firmware and domehow got overlooked by Samsung. Thanks [MENTION=6421203]Soulforged666[/MENTION] for his tip to quickly resolve this. Simply launch samsung messaging and tap the create new message buttonand you'll get the predictive text popup. Press ok and you're done. For some reason Google Play isn't letting the popup stay open so you can accept/decline predictive text. Its not a big deal and it's not a rom issue... its this way in the factory firmware and therefore it's gonna happen on all BOB7 roms unless the defaulys are changed in smali for the samsung keyboard. Not worth the trouble really.

Google play store easy fix. Go to google store app info and uninstall the update. Then clear data and open play store again and search and then the personalized comes up with no issues.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
I never tried doing that but i did assume that the Play store update was the cause. Meh... it's a non issue really.

On another topic, I would like some input from people on how much "bloat" to remove from the debloated stock rom. I would assume that anything that can be downloaded from the Google Play can be removed from the rom and left to the users to install as they choose and leave only the essential samsung apps. Would this be acceptable to those of you who wanta debloated rom? i know a lot of people know how to remove unwanted apps but for those in the future who will be flashing a bloat-free rom, I wouldn't mind hearing opinions in advance. Thanks for any input you all can give on this.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pstarkey001:
Yes...just keep the essential sammy apps. Thanks
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Soulforged666:
Ditto keep all samsung apps like s-health, s-note, etc... the only sprint app that I use is the sprint zone the rest are useless. And you can remove any app that can be re-downloaded in the playstore or through the galaxy store.

My testing is complete and I have to say this ROM is perfect. I been able to get perfect battery with this ROM that will last me a full days work. No lag or issues running any of my apps and or rooted apps. All feature such as private mode and or all other options worked out of the box. Only issue I had was with Google hangouts and Google services but I have found out that this was not due to the ROM but because of the Adaway and Fredom. Thanks for all your hard work TX. ???????
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ehusidic:
Has anybody tried a custom kernel with this rom? Im downloading the rom now and will give it .a shot sooner than later
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] treo4life:
That would be great tx , leave the Samsung core apps in place and the rest can be DL from the play store if needed, I can't wait for the desolated version of your Rom
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] flyhighx:
On a bloat free rom I would also vote to keep the Samsung apps but remove the apps that can be installed from Google play easily enough. I would especially like to see the apps removed that can not be simply uninstalled through app manager but must be frozen or removed with titanium. Examples would be: lookout, flipboard, Evernote, blurb checkout, milk and things of that nature.

Thank you for all you're doing!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Soulforged666:
Oh and get rid of those stupid battery notifications if you can... example: I know I have it charging I do not need a notification in the drop down telling me this, and I do not need it to tell me the phone is charged in a pop up then also in a drop down notification. Or even when the keyboard is being used... really samsung? At least if they swipe able to remove them it would be somewhat better...

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
HaHa! I agree!!! You can swipe to close them though. But yes I find this annoying too. Very annoying!

I can't wait for debolted ver..and bit mod include like remove battery notification. .sound increasing notification extra

.reboot menu. .

Your rom is sick men ..on the whole just cant wait. .this like we're waiting to get lollipop on our phone..us always dev like you make it perfect. .

Just want say thanks for great rom and your time.?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mikiemon:
Open messaging, click the text window, click accept/decline predictive text, close and then open google play. easy fix.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dschachm:
To remove the battery charged notification, download a program from the App Store called app ops. Open the app, install the application and reboot once it is installed. After reboot, go into the application and find system ui under personal. Scroll down and turn off post notifications.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Soulforged666:
Hmmm. I already have that app, I did not know if I wanted to turn that off as I typically do not mess with the system UI myself but I guess there really is no reason for the system to post Notifications. This will not turn off all system notifications like pop ups though will it? There are some of those I still need to be able to see.

I currently own the Samsung Gear S and Note 4. I would love to beta test this ROM to ensure the Gear S features work within this ROM, including the notification push. Please let me know if you are still in need of some beta testers. Thanks

I downloaded and installed the ROM seems to work fine.

the only hiccup is when I try to use Quickboot

It asks for super SU access and I grant it but it won't restart at al to all different options.. even with the own Super SU app when upgrading the binaries when I hit reboot after the install I actually have to restart manually cause it won't do it on it's own as it should.

I reinstalled the rom 3 times but it stills there.

So I'd like to know if anyone else is having the same results..

Thanks!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Soulforged666:
Sorry I dont use quickbot but I just ran into something a little similar all of a sudden my Clean Master is unable to disable apps from autostarting it keeps telling me I have to enable in SuperSU but it is enabled, pretty sure it was working fine until yesterday afternoonish. I even uninstalled Cleaner and reinstalled it will not allow me to do that. Greenify seems to work fine. Should I uninstall and reinstall SuperSU or will that mess with it?

Yeah that's an clean master app issue, it does that with the stock lollipop update, not exclusive of this rom..

Need testers for fully deodexed stock rom.

Today I'm testing a fully deodexed stock rom. I just wanted to see if there will be major issues with running deodexed system files with ART. First boot takes roughly 13 minutes. I will upload it later this evening when i get home and I would like some testers for this rom as well. This is a new round of testing so pm me if you can help test this fully deodexed build for a couple of days... same thing as before, just a different rom. For this rom I ONLY need testers to run this rom stock with NO mods and NO custom kernels etc. Once the rom is proven to be 100% stable then further testing of mods, kernels etc will be ok. Please pm me if you can flash & test this rom for a couple of days. Only 10 testers needed and I have a few already in mind. Thanks in advance.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jclthei:
I downloaded and installed this ROM. The problem I ran into, was a boot cycle. I could not get passed the Samsung splash screen. I wiped everything, including internal data and could not get it working, had to go back to stock for now.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
If you followed my instructions in the op you should have no problems. You're problem is unique for sure.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Soulforged666:
Sounds close to what happened with me when I hit a snag but mine had already been installed. How many times did you retry to install? You can PM me if you think this will take too long and you can post the solution if we find one after.

Deodexed rom uploading now. Testers wil get a pm & link

Well I had a long day today and got home pretty late. The deodexed rom is now uploading. I will be making a new group of testers for this round and some of you who tested the last odexed rom will be chosen to test this one also. I will PM the link to all the testers I have chosen as soon as the rom finishes uploading. There's no need to ask to test beyond this post because I have already seen those requests. Don't take it personal if i didn't select you. I simply can't add all who request.

For this deodexed rom I need you all to leave it bone stock for at least the first 2 days. Seriously, check out everything under the sun this time. Look for any FC's or any other type of odd behavior, performance issues etc. The reason being is that this rom is fully deodexed and I'm uncertain how ART will get along with a completely deodexed system. So this testing phase is really a lot more critical and you really need to go through everything and make sure everything works without issues. Also compare the performance of this deodexed rom (beyond first boot & setup) with the odexed rom and see if you actually notice any significant difference in performance while the phone is powered on (ignore boot time difference this is obviously going to be slower being deodexed). One more thing... I'm aware on the FC during setup wizard (Samsung Link Platform) and it seems to not happen any other time. If and when this rom gets the go-ahead, I will build the "Naked" versions and upload with no testing required. If you need the hotspot mod grab it from my mods section of my AFH or my X-Series rom thread and just flash & reboot.

Edit: To be a tester, as I mentioned before, you MUST be registered on androidfilehost and follow me. So if I pm you for testing go to androidfilehost.com and search txdbstx and click the follow button on my profile pic.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
I would like for both of you to test. Look for link in a pm either later tonight or early in the morning.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jclthei:
I'll be more then happy too. Let me know what type of bug reports/logs you need.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
I already pm'd you. I shouldn't need any logcats. If an issue comes up and enough detail is given, i will know how to fix it with out a logcat. this stuff is stock without mods so no logcat needed in my opinion.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] eurominican:
No issues to report on the odex rom. Rock solid.

I'm helping [MENTION=6421203]Soulforged666[/MENTION] to isolate an issue with the PowerA Moga controller/app but it's unclear where the problem is stemming from. I don't think it's related to the rom.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
Heads up to testers. the deodexed upload is going rather slow so it will be a while before it finishes. Don't stay up. LOL. Slow & steady but always pefect md5. LOL.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
Most likely some sort of incompatibility and or insufficient API level. That would be my first guess without knowing a single thing about the problem .LOL
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
Deodexed rom is up

Deodexed rom is uploaded and available fo testing. The link is now in the OP at the bottom. I have made this testing phase simple because it's getting late. So all of my supporters who have made a donation have been allowed access to the restricted deodexed test rom as well as several others who have requested to test. So all of you should be able to download right now. If i missed somebody it's because I didn't have your AFH username or i simply overlooked your name. No worries folks. Please test this deodexed rom as well as you can guys and report any issues FC's etc. This is the base for all of my future roms so it's up to all of you to help me locate issues IF there is any. Thank you all.

Edit: almost forgot... flashing instructions are: backup anything first, wipe all but external sd card even data, flash rom, reboot. first boot will take around 13 minutes give or take. It will sit on the yellow Sprint Spark screen during this time so just let the phone do it's thing. DO NOT pull battery! the screen will eventually turn off once the rom loaded and setup wizard screen pops up. Setup as usual. Please leave it stock for the next couple of days for testing purposes.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ChodaBoyUSA:
I concur with the other posts regarding the de-bloated ROM, keep the Samsung apps and let us install anything else.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hoghead1987:
Thank you so much for your hard work. This runs so smooth & great battery life. Again, thank you.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Soulforged666:
Thank you [MENTION=1503720]tx_dbs_tx[/MENTION] you have the best ROMs out there. I am going to try to get this installed while I am at work it seems kinda slow the sales team is at a quarterly meeting so I can actually get my work done lol. I also would like to say, the group of people you have following your ROMs is the greatest group I have run across while looking through all the threads on this site (that I have looked through) there is no belittling of people who dont have as much experience and its actually its own little community. :)

I have been able to help people out on here and even gave [MENTION=2475348]jclthei[/MENTION] a hand in not giving up on installing the Odex version of this ROM and the last I heard its now running smoothly minus a hiccup with batter life.

And I would like to thank [MENTION=952162]eurominican[/MENTION] for his help in checking out the issue with the Moga Controller. It seems there may be something wrong with the GTA 3 most recent app itself with either lollipop in general or just the Note 4 variant of lollipop.

Thanks for a pretty much flawless rom!! As far as performance, screencap says it all. Stock kernel, Odexed version. Appreciating yet another stellar rom, thanks to your continued dedication!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Soulforged666:
Just so you know. My initial installation from wipe to the end of set up (including sprint app installs) took approximately 24 minutes. It was sitting on the Sprint Splash screen for about 15 minutes when loading, I was starting to worry lol.

Retsart is taking less than 30 seconds have not been able to time it perfectly yet however that seems quicker than the Odex version.

Ill be back with updates when needed.

I didn't think you were going to do "deodexed". I am willing to test if this runs better than the OTA.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
Thanks for the kind words man! In my personal life i learned over the years that you are who you hang around with and i only surround myself with good people. It's no different here at XDA. I don't associate with negative or problem causing people in my personal life or here. I'm not perfect by any meeans and if i make a mistake I will own it and learn from it and move forward. So i agree with you that there's a lot of good people here who follow and support me and i do appreciate all of you. So thanks goes out to all of you who have shown your appreciation and respect. Good people.

At first i had absolutely no intention of deodexing anything in Lollipop. However i have been studying a lot on the technical details of the new android runtime and the new odexing of Lollipop and now realize that re-odexing lollipop will not be an easy task and the developers for the current odexing tools will most likely not have their tools updated for lollipop support for quite a long time. It's going to take some serious work and the knowledge & skill to do so. So what I'm going to do is ONLY deodex system files which i must make edits in classes and use only those deodexed files, leaving the rest odexed.. This is my idea going forward and it gives an accurate reflection to the term "Hybrid". It will work perfectly.
