[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Tkkg1994:
I like to welcome you to the thread about the new HulkRom. This ROM does only support the GT-I9505 Variant (S4 International) all others are untested but may also work!

Hy my dear friends. I think a lot of people already know me here on the galaxy s4 thread ;) I am the developer of the Hulk-Kernel and if you don't know me yet, you may want to have a look there too. I also develop for the Samsung Galaxy Tab S (IronRom and IronKernel) and since a week for the Galaxy S5 Plus (NovaRom). I really like developing and this kind of stuff, so here I am presenting you my new self build rom (touchwiz based). Full packed with great features! :D

By the way, it is called EOL (End of life) because I got this new phone mentioned above and I not do much here (updates etc.)

Nobody is not allowed to take stuff from my rom without asking me! Thank you.

The rom its self is Touchwiz based, I made a lot of optimisations to actually enjoy my device as it is at the moment, stock was just to boring :victory:
