Spectrum S4An Infamous Development
Rules:
1. This is a hobby for me and I may not be updating everyday, I have a family and a day job.
2. I will try to answer any questions you may have, but somtimes I just dont have the time.
3. This rom will be customized to my liking, but i am willing to take suggestions.
4. All roms are tested before uploading aswell I download and test again to make sure it boots properly.
5. No flaming in this thread and I exspect everyone to help each other. If you do not have anything productive to say please do not post.
6. This rom is provided free of charge, all I would like is a thanks in return, Please do not criticize the rom, there are plenty of other roms to choose from.
7. Your warrenty is now VOID, I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device as a result of installing this rom.
If accept these rules your are welcome to download my rom.
How to Install:
AT&T users will need to flash @ktoonsez Kernel before rebooting!
Big thanks to him! Thread link
1. Back your rom up incase anything goes wrong, I use TWRP. Not tested with CWM but should work.
2. Coming from another rom, full wipe no questions ask. Updating to newer version, you can wipe the system unless otherwise specified.
3. Flash the Rom
4. Install @ktoonsez awesome kernel - TELUS users can skip this part
5. Wipe cache/ dalvik cache
6. Do not fix permissions whenit ask
7. After it boots to setup, let sit for about 10 minutes
8. Reboot and enjoy
You have any issues with the rom please do a full wipe before you asked questions, rom is fully tested before and after it is uploaded so good chance it is user error.
I just got this device about two weeks ago and have big plans for this rom with the help of Infamous Development and any other developer that is willing to help each other out.

I just sat and listen to a couple tunes using the stock player and through my headphones that came with my S2 and it sounds pretty good to me.
One thing I have always noticed about MP3's is that they do not sound as good as a original.
What player and headphones are you using?

Just a thought if this kernel works on rogers then instead of flashing KT kernel could users just flash loki doki zip instead ?

Hey, amazing ROM!! However I just have one issue though..
Some of my apps keep freezing for some reason. For example, my contacts app. If i quickly scroll down my list of contacts.. the app freezes on me. Also, the game 'Blitz Brigade' doesn't work either.. wondering if this is happening to anyone else..

Ah, car stereo. Are you using bluetooth or 3.5mm cable?, check and make sure the cable isnt faulty if you are using one. Somtimes if you use a cheap 3.5mm cables they tend to crap out after awhile.

Hey no problem, Maybe a reflash will help. I am just not experiencing any issues with apps
freezing up.
Yeah I thought that might be the issue. I replaced my belkin flat cable with another, still Meh quality (poor bass and volume). Any cables you prefer or recommend?
I don't think it's the rom, but different roms had different audio results on my S3 so I figured I'd ask.

I usually use the usb input on my deck in my jeep to listen to music, If you have time try another music app from the store and see if you get the same results. The rom has two music effects: musicFX and dsp manager, try flipping back and forth between the two and see if sound quality inproves.

you can use whatever build u wish to flash im not saying im better or hes better thats not what its about... Just expect some bugs because i cant bug test it myself is all... IF you feel someone elses build is better so be it use that...
and it will be based off stock but ill be adding power menu mod lock screen support init d support so on so yaaaa its going to be better then a straight stock build.... Ill release in a few days... still have some things to get working on your rom...
The diffrence between a blind build and a non blind build is
the person building it has access to the device where as the blind builder is going to rely on the community if there is any major bugs with the rom ...
eg the rom wont install it just boot loops this app crashes theres a graphical bug here and there power menu doesnt work lock screeen etc... where someone has the device can test those things upfront....
Honestly i theme my own roms ... Granted some of my roms might look like some of my other roms that just goes with sometimes run out of ideas or people just like some aspects of them so for familiarity they are included..
Hope i answered your question.

I'm just curious about the process. I was with android since the g1 days and then left for iPhone but came back to android again.
So what you pretty much doing is, taking an already working rom, theme it, add your tweaks and then your done right? If its that too easy then why your saying "stuff might not work" and "I need testers" what do you think might break stuff on an already working rom?
Also I can't wait to test out the new rom, you got any eta when you will get done? Can I be a tester??

I thought it would be grate to have a spot, were we clould ask questions to Clark44 about his Rom FreeGS3 v0.0.7 7-27-12
I am a realy Big fan since version 7 the Installer shows so much spunk!!!
I realy think keeping everything for Clark44 in one spot will help him in further creation of his rom.
After spending time with this rom all i can think about is how do I donate to keep it going?
I can not wait for the themes to come out for this Rom.
***First question Clark. May I use Setcpu and Ram Manager with your Rom?

Donate by clicking donate under his name in his posts.
I'd say don't use CPU apps. He has some tweaks in there and never mentioned anything about outside apps.

goo rom manager question
I do not want to loose the abilty to save recoveries to my extSdCard. So I am afraid to switch from CWM version that i am using.
The question is, can we use the Goo Manager to download the zip then use the CWM to flash it ?
I am just not sure if it packed and repack the same way.
Youtube isn't working when I'm on the go, using my 3g. But it works fine when I connect to Wifi. Maybe I did something wrong or maybe it just my phone?
Clark44 never sleeps...he is a rom machine
I noticed on the messaging app that the vibration when silent option was absent with .7. I don't need my phone vibrating when I get texts with sound on so I was wondering if there was a way to get that back. Thanks.

No S-Voice options please
The installer is very cool. This is now my goto build for installing modems, I can install them at install then update PRL with one build.
I can't live with S-voice though, it just can't call the people I want and... don't get me started on it.
I hoped choosing not to install the removed Samsung apps would include S-voice but I still get it when I make a BT voice dial.
Is there any way to have the option to not have S-voice and use Google voice instead?
Thanks!
Thanks for posting this thread! I can't post in the dev forums yet (too new) so I had no way to get into the conversation.
I've got two questions.
1. Is anyone using JuiceDefender with this Rom? I'm used to it from my Samsung Galaxy Epic, but I wasn't sure if it's needed on this ROM. I like some of the features (Location aware Wifi, etc) but maybe not if it's sacrificing battery.
2. (For Clark) On version .8, is there any way to build in some of the color/theme options from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28676439 ? I'm not a big fan of green, so I would love to change the colors of the battery and the 15 toggles...

Well, I think it depends on how you use your phone. For me at least, JuiceDefender has helped out TREMENDOUSLY. I live in an area with bad reception and I'm constantly going in and out of roaming. Having all my data turned off while I'm not using the phone really helps boost my battery life (and not having to do so manually is worth the $5 in my opinion).
Without JD I'm at about 10-15% when I get home from work (10 hr work days). With JD I'm at about 30% when I get home.
I guess everyone's mileage may vary, but if you've already bought JD you might as well try and see if it helps your battery life.
side note: I also love the night tint in JD
I've actually got a couple of questions with this ROM.
First, though, I have to say this is a phenomenal ROM. I initially flashed it solely as a stop-gap while waiting for CM10 to come out for my Sprint GSIII, but it quickly has become my daily driver.
So with the installer on the 0.0.7 version, there are multiple radios. Is there any advantage in flashing one of those, or just leaving it be? Also I really like the CRT animations and beats audio, but it wasn't there in the 0.0.7 version, so I just went with 0.0.6. Is there a way to get it on the 0.0.7 version or have those features been disabled? I went off the video review on youtube, linked but for some reason, on my version, little to no features were on mine compared to the review video. Is there a way to enable them on the newest version? Thanks.
It got lost on the main thread, but awesome beats will be back in .8 (he forgot to put it in .7) and crt was broken by Samsung

Nice thread you guys have going on here
As for themeing. Let me explain how im going to have this system setup at latest by v0.0.9.
I've done some research and finally found an app that will do the following:
1. Notify when update is available
2. Allow user to download themes, bootanimations, apps, flashables, all within the app and all supplied by me.
3. Allow the user to read the changelog of upcoming buids on the go.
The link to this app is here
Now i already started migrating the boot animation option i already finished in Aroma installer into this app and that should be done very soon. Themers will also be able to send me whatever they make and i can make it an option in the app!
This will benefit us in the following:
1. Aroma installer stays and installs kernels, modems, and mods
2. ROM size doesn't go up to 2GB when i add in all the themes ect. (Size will always be around 860)
3. Users can change their theme and UI mods on the go without having to reinstall the ROM.
I'm trying to make customization available without having to reinstall the entire ROM. This will give us the best of both worlds.
I'm working on this as we speak so I might dissapear from XDA for a little bit while i stay on my train of thought But in spite of everything...this is going to get a whole lot better.

Will CRT return in the 0.0.8 release? Also what is the deal with all the different types of radios in the aroma installer?

No on CRT, see back a page or two with a draft of the mods in next release.
The radio's are the different modems you can choose, there have been three releases (updates) and the original that came with the phone. That is what the radios are.
Radio=baseband=modem

Are there any advantages/disadvantages in flashing a different modem to the phone? It seems to be a consensus that LF9 gives better signal, but I'm afraid for the drawbacks.
Downloading .8 now. Very excited.
Clark, I have a small request for .9.
Any chance you can add on my favorite bootanimation from my Samsung Epic days?
It's the third link found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033274
(I'm also a big fan of the blue shutdown animation, but that's not nearly as big of a priority.)
Thanks!
I don't see the video icon when using Google Talk. I used to have it before I flash 0.0.8. Any ideas, I can get it back? Thanks

WELCOME TO THE JEDI ACADEMY!
We're pleased to welcome all Jedi, from Initiate to Master here for questions and answers about the Jedi ROM series. Our goal here is to provide a platform where you can ask questions, seek advice, and gain insight and knowledge about the ROM, especially in the immediate pre- or post- flash time period.
One thing we cannot stress enough - READ THE OP (Original Post) for the ROM you're thinking of flashing completely to familiarize yourself with any changes or issues. The OP is updated (usually in advance) of all new releases, and contains *important* information about the release.
Lastly, style counts as much as substance here. We take great pride in being polite, respectful, and generous in our time and devotion to helping improve the Jedi ROM experience. While we can't guarantee we can respond immediately to all questions, we make every effort for someone to be around to help out should you need it. As the Jedi council grows, you can expect more names from people you can ask directly for more detailed or personalized help.
Below, you will find an FAQ with the most commonly asked questions about the Jedi ROM series. Please be a little patient with us as we grow the list and get it entered. As you all know, typing all of this stuff out takes time, so growing it will take some time.
Now that you've made through all of that, feel free to start looking, and remember that the SEARCH THIS THREAD box to the right of Thread Title is your friend, and can lead you to the necessary answers in many instances. I am working on the fuller FAQ now, and I promise it will grow as we wade through the threads looking for the most common questions!
Thanks for your patience and commitment to the Jedi ROM series!

Q0 HELP!!!! I TRIED TO ROOT AND FLASH THIS ROM AND NOW I CAN'T GET PAST THE SAMSUNG OR ANDROID SCREENS (OR ANYTHING OF THAT NATURE)
A0 There's an EXCELLENT thread for recovering from a bad flash HERE. (Mad thanks to bigapplevip for the link in the Jedi X5 Thread for posting this!)
Q1 Why won't my 64Gb SD Card work?
A1 The Saber 02 Kernel, used by both the Jedi Master and Jedi X series, does not support xfat formatting. In order for a 64GB card to work, you can either format the card in FAT32, or switch to the Perseus kernel for the phone, which supports exfat.
Q2 Does this have multi-window support and wifi calling?
A2 The Jedi Master ROM has wifi calling enabled, but no multi-window support. The Jedi X Series has multi-window, but no wifi calling.
Q3 My AmeriTrade or Samsung Galaxy Note II User's Digest isn't working.
A3 Uncheck "Force GPU rendering" in "Settings/Developer Options"
Q4 Why can't I find XXMyAppHereXX in the app drawer?
A4 Bloat or anything the Dev sees as extra or not needed by everyone or available on the Market was removed!! See link to GoodyBag in the OP or find in the Market
Q5 With the 5X5 Home Screen, my widgets are all squished-looking!
A5 Remove and re-add the widget, it will self-fix.
Q6 My phone won't sync with Kies via USB!
A6 Jedi Master and Jedi X support Kies via USB. You may find that you lose connectivity to Kies after restoring from Titanium. If this happens, disconnect the phone, run the connection Troubleshooter (which reinstalls the USB drivers and checks them), then reconnect the phone. You should be set after that.
Q7 Can I dirty flash over Version XX with Version XY?
A7 In some cases, yes. But, should you encounter stability issues or the occasional bartender who sees your phone and says "Their kind isn't allowed in here!", then you *may* want to full wipe. As a rule, I myself ALWAYS full wipe, system, flash ROM and any other .zips, wipe caches, boot, drink a root beer, and reboot. I've never, ever had a stability issue with a Jedi ROM. One thing to keep in mind is that you should ALWAYS CLEAN FLASH when a new BASE is used. This information will always appear in the OP for the ROM you're going to flash.
Q8 What does "Dirty Flash" mean?
A8 It means flashing a new ROM straight from the old, without wiping data or system. This leaves your old system data intact, but *can* cause stability issues. The council recommends a full wipe as stated in the OP, but your results may vary.
Q9 I flashed Jedi and now my XXyouapphereXX doesn't work anymore or behaves poorly.
A9 Some apps seem to have issues with new releases. Go Locker appears to have an issue with Jedi X5 (thanks to NeoAndroid for reporting that). If you have an issue, try reinstalling the app. If that doesn't cure your issue, post up, and we'll see what we can find out.
Q10 How do I get the carrier name back on the pull-down on my home screen?
A10 Easy answer - flash a new theme. Otherwise, you'd need to open the apk and change xml, which is NOT advised. NOTE: Themes not EXPRESSLY authored for the 23-toggle WILL NOT WORK.
Q11 How do I change the boot animation?
A11 You'll need root access, and just change the bootanimation.zip in "system/media"
Q12 Help!!! My battery is being eaten alive by this ROM!
A12 Install GSAM Battery Monitor. It's free, and gives us really useful info about what's hitting up your battery. Generally speaking, it's best to give it at least 24 hours and a full charge cycle before getting too excited. Since we all use our phones differently, YMMV.
Q13 Why am I not getting 4G/What happened to the 4G icon/Now I'm only getting 3G, why? etc...
A13 Starting with Jedi X7.2, the Status Bar now shows Correctly what TYPE of network you are connected to. H+ is 4G, H is 3G, and E is 2G GPRS/Edge
Q14 How do I flash a different theme from Aroma?
A14 A dirty flash is all you need to do.
We're VERY proud of of Dev, and his AWESOME releases. One way we show our appreciation is with banners. Please feel free to use any of the below if you use/appreciate/or just think Jedi are cool.

Not sure about the sound, but you can always flash the volumemod.zip from the goody bag and see if that helps. As for the hotspot, what's the trouble you're having with it?
Why are there so many versions of this ROM? I see a few in the Note 2 (T-Mobile) section and would like to try one but not sure which one to get... I'm coming from a long time using the Vibrant, which was a great phone, and I ran only Slim's stuff after trying 7 or 8 different ROMs... I'd like to use Jedi but not really sure which build I'd install. The phone is already rooted and ready to go. The main thing, and I know this is petty, that I am looking at is showing ONLY the battery percentage in text - no icon. I know its silly to ROM for just that but its what I like

There are two flavors -
Jedi Master (Based on T-Mo Stock Firmware) which has wi-fi calling enabled and working. It does not include multi-window. It does have the same tweaks and boosts that ALL Jedi ROMs have.
Jedi X (Based on AT&T LJ1 Firmware) which has multi-window enabled and working, but no wi-fi calling.
I'm not sure about what themes out there support your no battery graphic request, but I'm someone has one. Bear in mind that themes will need to be consistent with the 23-Toggle mod that is cooked in both flavors.
Happy flashing!
The Avatar Team is proud to present:
Avatar ROM
CM based ROM for LG Optimus G (E975)
Love the minimal feel of CM? Love the themeing capability of MIUI?
The Avatar team brings you, both combined in one ROM. Now enjoy beautiful MIUI themes on Cyanogen base.

I have not made any tweaks or changed anything, just ported it.
I played around with it for a little bit and made a phone call, but did not test everything.
I used Shelnutt2's CM 10.2 as the base.
Here is the original thread for Avatar ROM from bippi79.
I used the nightly 4.0 version from that thread.
I am not responsible if you brick your phone, flash at your own risk!

Have fun.
Use 4.3 gapps.
Known issue, not all icons change with themes, and Phone app does not change with themes.
Awesome! Thanks for the efforts and hard work in providing this!

Ok, so I have been using this ROM for the biggest part of the day (it's almost 6pm here). I have to say I am very impressed so far. It's Quick, Smooth and has just the right settings for me with the exception of Halo I do miss that! Also this is the only ROM (so far) I have used where I have notice the focus issue with the camera on my device. For now I just installed Camera ZoomFX (seeing I bought it ages ago) and that helped, later I am going to try the script and see what happens.
Q. Where can I find the option to turn DeBug on?
Peace,
running smooth so far. MMS, sending and receiving, incoming/outgoing calls, 4g, WiFi, but is there a way to get the 13mp back for the camera?

I'm sure there is. Like I said I hadn't made any tweaks or changes yet.
I have been aggressively trying to port 4.3 ROMs so that has been my primary focus. After that I am going to update nexOGen and then will get back to this.
Edit: This was a super easy quick port so glad to see its working so well.

My Experience
After using this pretty much since it was posted here, here is what I have experienced.
No Debug Option
Camera focus (as with most rom's)
Wifi is iffy (signal comes and goes)
Over heating (long idle times tend to cause this for some reason)
Lost of booting (See note)
NOTE: Losing the ability to be able to boot into the phone comes when I have 1) Used TWRP 2) Used USB to transfer files. I haven't been able to tell if it's when you do them in session or just one or the other causing problems period. Either way the phone pretty much does and all I can do is LGNPST.
I like the Avatar ROM, just think that it definitely needs more work done to it for the LGOG LS970, That's not to sound ungrateful in any way droidmk I am very thankful for your hard work.
Just wanted to share my experience.
Thanks,

I can understand that, well I think you are off to a good start. Porting is prob. one of the better places to start and then move on to source? I am still using this ROM despite the issues I stated. I can't help but like the feel of it and the ability to customize everything (almost) from a single theme is awesome!
If I can be of any assistance to you (testing or whatever) feel free to holler.
Ok,
I was banging my head against a brick wall porting 4.3 so I went back to this to try to give you a better experience. Will have a new version up today.

Okay lets get this out of the way now. You need to post what release you are on when you report issues. There are many different releases and I cant/wont help you if you dont give me the information I need to help you.
Well simple OP for now.
For those who dont know about this rom yet let me fill you in. This is the original thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2756911 and all the things that work thank them. For everything that is broken well that is most likely my fault. LOL! This rom is a direct port and will only be offered as the original team made it (besides fixes for Sprint). Please do not ask for me to add or change anything.
This rom contains S5 apps and N3 features (air command)!!
Thank you Section
I will fix this up later but for now it will be pretty much empty
Team N3bula for the rom and allowing me to port it.
Please use Philz 6.07.9 recovery...
http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/l900
Flashing Instructions
1. Download rom and verify MD5sum
2. Place rom on phone (if not already)
3. Backup anything you need/want that is in your internal sdcard
3. Backup current rom
4. Factory reset/Format for new rom
5. Under mounts choose format /data /data/media (this is your internal sdcard)
6. Reboot into recovery
7. Flash rom and reboot
The first boot will take a long time so please wait. Also the phone will be a little sluggish for awhile (it has to setup itself).
If you have not taken the 4.3 or 4.4.2 OTA/ODIN and not flashed the wifi fix you will need to do so to be able to use wifi.
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358548565 -- this version is not compressed just flash it as is

Mods and Fixes
Here is the systemUI from the Community Rom (S5-look). I have only tested this on beta 2.4 but it should work on all of them. If you are not on 2.4 then it will automatically delete your systemUI.odex file to keep issues from showing up. Note that there is a S5-FEAT-systemui.zip so you can go back to it if you want.

Okay guys here is the meat for your philz recovery. Unzip the this and place in your clockwork folder on your external sdcard. It will work on your internal but if you wipe internal (like you should every flash) you will lose it. Once you place it there boot into recovery and double tap a blank part of the screen.
There is one tiny issue with this. Every so often when changing directories it will kind of hang. Dont worry if you see this just touch the screen and it will work.

I will put this on android file host later.
Just had to share this! This is what why I enjoy doing this (besides the fact I have a cool looking phone).

My current phone is a LG g2 I had the sprint note 2 previous. My note2 was collecting dust and I decided to see what's going on with it on xda as far as roms. I just switched back from LG g2 to the note 2 . The rom you made or ported is mad sick I might sell my LG g2 and I love that phone. Thank you my new daily driver

I've been running 2.3 for a week or so had no problems so far. I guess I should wait for the WiFi fix as I use WiFi most of the time. Thanks for all the hard work porting it and props to the devs who did the original Verizon ROM

I have the S5 systemui flashable zip uploaded in Post 3. It has only been tested on 2.4 but I made the script so that if you tried it on the other betas it will remove your systemui.odex file.
Great work JL I am gonna flash this after I get finished playing with the Community ROM Alpha 1. You are relentless man!!!

Two last things I forgot to mention. Again from other versions so I don't know why I didn't say anything.
Has not been as big an issue, but some music lag when screen goes off. Only sometimes.
I'm guessing increasing minimum cpu speed might help, but feel we should not have to.
And I know this is a TouchWiz issue, but what causes the wallpaper to revert to default in most restarts?

Will look into those for you. All of this is on 2.3? Now about wallpaper. Give this a try. With root browser go to system and delete the wallpaper folder. Then make sure you have your wallpaper set and do a few reboots. Hopefully it will help.

Yes. I'm on 2.3, but have noticed a little music lag on lock screen with all betas. Any music player or milk.
Also that most of the time when I pause a song on any music player if I do something else or leave for too long it goes away. If it's still there it's back at the beginning. Not major issues.
I'll give the wallpaper thing a try.
And the only other thing seems to be some weird issue with my phone. No matter what TouchWiz rom I install "stock, beta, s5" I have to manually install video share for group play.
All minor issues. Thank you for all this work.
I'm gonna test the system ui on 2.3 and then possibly try 2.4 and wifi fix.
Have you gotten a chance or had the want to look at those supposed super trimmed/beefed TouchWiz launchers?
Not that it's anywhere near as bad as the Internet likes to claim.

I think I'm on 1.8
Runs well. I didn't see that in the OP.
Has anyone used the WiFi fix on a version besides 2.4 and the successfully used the WiFi fix and then re-flashed 2.4 and kept WiFi?
I noticed he said it was a 2.4 issue and I was gonna try going to 2.3 using the fix and then come back to 2.4 wiping just the caches, but wanted to check if it's been done successfully or not before I go ahead and download it.

Link me to the video share you install and I will include it with the rom. I have not looked and any of the "special" TW launchers. Everything seems to run fine on the stock one so I see no reason to change LOL.

Only 2.4 will show the correct version under settings and what you are seeing is the base rom's info. I am willing to bet you are on 2.3. Only way to tell for sure is by the "issues you have" or by the name of the file you flashed. I am trying to make sure I get that updated on each new release. BTW I am flashing 2.5 now and will let yall know how it goes.

You can try if you want but it will not work. The wifi fix zip in the OP clearly states it wont fix wifi on 2.4. The zip is for those who have not taken the OTA/Odin.

I can't tell if anything changed, but the zip flashed fine.
And wallpaper thing might have worked.

Just a heads up flashing the community systemui just makes it look like the stock ui (without the theme) on the 2.3.
