[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Incinerator:
Installed the latest version (first flight something...) and stumbled upon these so far:

1. In the camera app -> effect : Faded Color effect is changing the tint like crazy.

2. Can't get any live wallpapers to work. Says "application is not installed" when I try to set one in settings -> wallpaper. Upd.: found LiveWallpaperPicker.apk on the thread, copied it there, chmod 644, didn't work. Muzei activate button launches the picker, I choose muzei and the picker crashes. Via the Settings -> Wallpaper still said like it did before.

3. On my previous rom (MBP I guess, 5.0.1) there was fullscreen album art on the Lockscreen when music was on. Now there is just a tiny widget. It was so beautiful, would love to have it back.

Minor things:

1. The rom is marked as 5.1.1 and so it says in About Device in Settings, albeit I couldn't flash the xposed framework that is supposed to be used with 5.1.1: it said that this rom is 5.0.x. Framework for 5.0.x flashed ok.

Overall runs very smoothly.

Thank you for ya work bruh! :good:

Hi guys!

A very strange issue i am facing after clean install this rom.

Also install bootloader and modem via odin.

Problem is that call drops after 2 or 3 minutes or random. When someone calls me i recieve amd talk but after couple pf minutes my voice stops, like mic crahses or something..

Can anyone put light on this ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] bhuvan9111:
Clean flash the rom this time and dont flash any modem since the rom has a modem when u flash the rom.this should fix ur prob.

Guys i just wanted to ask, if i want to install touchwiz apps like the s planner, browser, music, etc from the removed apps link, how to do that?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] hansonchen:
Just flash it in recovery. Any zip with "meta-inf" folder within it, is flashable
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] RafaelRivero16:
Owhh i see, thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] RafaelRivero16:
Guys i just wanna ask, if i wanna revert back to stock TW rom via odin from this rom, will i get my official imei, serial, not root privilege, and knox back (like it was before romming the device)?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] talayy:
Twrp backup your efs and modem, you normally won't loose imei but you should have backup incase.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] RafaelRivero16:
A few more questions:

Can we install samsung applications from the playstore or the galaxy apps or it is a must to flash the zip? And can we update it from playstore/galaxy apps?

Is the API Level 21 or 22?

Sorry for many questions, I just wanna know before trying out this rom perhaps next week

Thankyou very much guys :)

Guys, is it possible to make the s6 camera app pro mode working without force close? Do u think if changing the build.prop to enable new camera API to allow manual mode will allow the pro mode to work? Btw idk if this rom has changed build.prop to allow manual settings for the camera because I haven't tried it yet, but I was just wondering. Or is the pro mode actually already working?

Edit: Nevermind about this post, I've tried the ROM, the pro mode doesn't FC. This ROM is amazing!!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] RafaelRivero16:
Guys, to install the removed samsung apps from the link, is it flashing it from twrp same process like installing the rom, so we select install then pick the zip and just slide? And can you flash 5 apps at one time reboot or 1 app 1 reboot? Please reply, this is my first time flashing apps. Thanks

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] hansonchen:
No one is answering you because all flashable files & solution is already clearly provided in OP 1 & 2. Please don't cross post to other thread to gain attention. Flash sbrowser & update it or go direct to playstore install sbrowser, it's that simple. In case you can't see clearly, let me help you.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] RafaelRivero16:
Thanks so much for replying I really appreciate it, but there's no SPlanner zip on the link, i did check that link already. And this is my first time romming, so i always ask before doing stuffs to avoid getting bootloops or bricks, later if I'm already more experienced longer and longer, I will ask fewer or even no questions. So can you help me find SPlanner zip? If not it's alright. Sorry for many questions guys, I'm a newbie.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] hansonchen:
You're not trying hard enough. Spend some time to look thru what the dev posted in his OP. Everything is there dude. Bootloops/soft-bricking can be avoided by backing up in recovery before flashing anything & spending some time to read couple of pages from OP & few from the latest postings.

There are wealth of information one can get by doing it & if you need quick answer, search the thread before posting your question. Many questions you have are most probably answered already. Go look thru carefully from the links posted & read the OP again please.

I don't wanna flash this rom because there's no xposed preinstalled
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] hansonchen:
Good choice, don't flash. Some don't like xposed & furthermore, it can be separately flashed. One rom can't fit everyone's desire & preference
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Ebrraheem:
Who r u ?

I was speaking about a flaw in this rom and you judged me like that.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] hansonchen:
It isn't a flaw dude, get your facts right. It's already stated DEBLOATED. The rom is perfect, no bugs, good battery, aesthetically one of the best, smooth like butter performance, light weight & great devs who took the trouble to create every system & debloated apps in flashable zip files.

Xposed can be flashed separately & so does many other things. Keep the rom to a minimum size and stable & so that others who have slow Internet connection to be able to download it & enjoy it. No one can make a rom to fulfill every preference, needs, like, etc of thousands of users here in s4 i9500. Am i right in saying so?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Ebrraheem:
And I say good job for developer and the rom is perfect except simply there's no compatible xposed. You still don't wanna see the elephant in the room right ?

If you wanna try to be smart again just provide an xposed and offset this flaw. Thanks anyway for the reply which is very rare nowadays.

Could u stop being naïve because I didn't mean u as an elephant. however what's wrong of being elephant. ?

Where can I get the apk file?

Why didn't the developer mention this compatible xposed in the op ?

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] neohxr:
This step may help.

Go to notification, expand & find "Download booster" & click it to turn on. At popup click "turn on wifi".

U will noticed that ur network indicator is become smaller & it will show the real network status (3G/H+/E) instead of 4G.

(U may turn off ur Wifi back and the network indicator will maintain in that form unless if u turn off download booster, the network indicator will show 4G again.)

Another good ROM ruined by the random reboot bug *sigh*
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] hansonchen:
No such problem when i was using it, rock stable. Always user problem, flashing mods or installing crappy apps or tweaking kernel - overclocking/LMK incorrectly configured causing kernel panic. Provide logs if you can please
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] fede01_8:
I literally only installed twitter and chrome. I never touch the kernel because I'm inexperienced when it comes to that. I don't know how to provide logs.

Anyway, I already uninstalled it and I'm gonna try other ROMs. Shame because I liked it how it is debloated of samsung crap apps and had decent battery use
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] hansonchen:
Back on this beautiful rom. Didn't do much, just drop max cpu @550mhz, greenify (only matters when phone screen is off), optimized some apps in battery setting, power saving turned on, flashed the black theme & few debloated packages (ie. Floatting, hancom, recorder, scloud, smemo, video, weather & smusic).

Extremely great SOT & rock stable with some battery sucking clash of clans game play.

Hi mate..Do i have to update bootloader b4 flashing this rom ? I have no PC to update bl with Odin. Using Mac need extra work :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] hansonchen:
Depends on which bootloader you're on now.

Use flashfire if you don't have access to a pc or mac, backup your current, download the bl provided in the OP then just flash away any roms you like

Will you please elaborate a little more that what tweaks you did for this kind of battery life ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] hansonchen:
Couldn't elaborate more, i just did those minimalist tweaks as posted previously. Underclock cpu, greenify, optimized apps using smart manager, turn on power saving... that's all. Or maybe the dark theme did help a little but i doubt it's significant. I've added back some bloat packages (as explained) & Xposed with many modules
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Bharat_chaudhary:
Exactly! I'm asking for you to show what settings you used. Maybe if you can show screenshots of everything you used. As you're really having great time on your battery. Even i was getting 6 hours of SOT on kitkat rom but that wasn't as fluid as this one.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Bharat_chaudhary:
One more thing. You also having some delays and lags on this roms some times the launcher even kinda restarts itself and icons seems to pop out one by one?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] hansonchen:
Never face any delays nor lags. Ram as usual 78-83% full, as snappy as the day i flashed it
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Bharat_chaudhary:
Thanks for the reply i think its with me only. NP now back on Kitkat. Still trying to find the best rom for our beast.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] sandip123456:
Try first flight octanote vM. Ram usage is high but if u have class 10 memory card u can use with roehsoft ram expander. I am using this combo now and believe me it's best. The performance is top notch.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Bharat_chaudhary:
I was using VM as that was the latest one. And about the SDCARD so I really don't like using sdcards from the beginning as they slow down your device. Thanks for your comment though I'll surely give it a try.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] hansonchen:
Here are some latest screen shots, photos speak a thousand words. I'm using MI band 2 connected thru bluetooth with S Health & Mi Fit app tracking my steps constantly. Full S Cloud & account services running in background syncing. I believe battery can be even better for those who doesn't use these health tracking apps & S account.

Kitkat is definitely giving the best battery but it's not efficient in managing ram, therefore the fluidity/smoothness in UI is noticeably felt when compared with lollipop. That was my dilemma whether staying in kk or upgrade to lp.

This isn't related much to development, so I'll end this discussion here.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] sandip123456:
Excellent rom. Hates off developer for awesom work. But for our device specially samsung galaxy devices stock roms is always better for battery, full stability, stable and excellent camera, original music fx for sound etc. After flashing tons of rom even 2 to 3 per day, i now confirm that stock is always better. Look for mbvp or ethan lite rom as they are full stock base with stock kernel. Some minor lag in ui which expect in touchwidze rom but full stable.

It's not an xposed module & has been abandoned since 2015. It only works on stock tw roms by replacing systemui.apk manually & can cause problems/fc to ported ROMs or missing functions.

Ok. So far it's working fine on this rom & should work on other roms too since it's based on xposed. Tw launcher seems smoother. I'm always using Nova launcher but I'll give this a try for few days
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] RafaelRivero16:
Does it replace the TW launcher into a new one or it just tweaks the TW launcher, is there any difference in looks? Or just a tweak?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] hansonchen:
It uses xposed framework to inject into the system & doesn't replace the systemui.apk. Everything's the same
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Bharat_chaudhary:
