[rom][unofficial][alpha] aokp port - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

Hello Everyone, I'm proud to present you with a port of the Unofficial AOKP ROM for our T-Mobile Galaxy S4's. Most of the credit goes to garwynn in the Sprint S4 forum for getting this working in the first place, I just made the necessary changes to get it to boot and run on our phones. As far as I can tell, the ROM is working very nicely (haven't tested too much) but may be considered as a daily driver with further testing. Anyway, just wanted to share my excitement... ENJOY!

:victory: I just finished flashing, restoring apps and tweaking my settings now.
I checked out the browser so far. Lightning fast compared to stock.
I had to download a different google apps, the link the op provided didnt work for me so i used this one:
http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip
Also tried the camera, it works but it seemed slow. Could be because i have apps downloading in the play store when i tried it. i miss the HDR feature from the stock camera app. So i'll try camera zoom fx later to see if it fits my personal wants.
I'll test out what i can today. If someone wants to post a quick list of things I should check. I'll try and get to it today and post the results.
Oh i also have my mouse paired to it via bluetooth. so thats working too.
Thanks OP
Update: The sd card isnt mounting and i lost root access. So much for restoring using titanium backup. Think i might just try and restore my stock rooted back up and wait for the next release. With out the SD card, i dont feel like running this as a daily driver. I need my flac music. But thanks anyway.

Nice to hear most things are working correctly. This ROM is still in alpha stage so there will be bugs unfortunately. I'll add updates with fixes as they come, but thank you for the feedback.

No problem, i eventually did flash my stock backup this morning. I look forward to trying the next update though. I dont mind flashing back and forth between builds and stock if i have to for this month and next. Thats the whole fun of getting a new phone.

Okay, so I can confirm that sd card is not being mounted. Also, root is not working from the get go. But uf you install super user from play store, then flaflak the superuser.zip provided in the details of the superuser app(by clockworkmod) ill attach it if you want to add to op for future users until it gets fixed.

I have tried cyanogenmod and the same sd card issue applies. It's not a hardware issue. I could mount the card, I just didn't know the syntax for the way Android sets it up for 'global user' rw.. ie this:
/dev/block/vold/179:33 on /storage/extSdCard type vfat (rw,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,nodiratime,uid=1000,gid=1023,fmask=0002,dmask=0002,allow_utime=0020,codepage=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro)

CM10.1 SD Card
The SD card issue is fixed in the latest CM10.1 Nightly.

Anyone willing to see if that would work for the S4? I don't have my TMO S4 yet to test. It's exfat for CM.

Nice man! working on my own project now actualy. I currently support the tmo s3 (d2tmo) and am the one person who supports the N8000, n8010, n8013, n8020 (Galaxy Note 10.1 tab)... Might need some testers soon as I still need to get the device.

Looks like we will need a dev to rewrite it for the S4 then. Hopefully someone can help us out.

[ROM][JB][CM10][PORT]Jellybean Port from Desire S (12/06/2012)

I present to you a Jellybean ROM port! i know cnote has already released one, but the more variety the better? perhaps...we shall see
first off, i would like to thank:
-nk111: for letting me use his ROM to port. link here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1776256
-elginsk8r: for the kernel. awesome!
-aaraya1516: for his never ending help in compiling the kernel and files for me. thank you!!
-Cnote: for letting me use his ROM as a base
-Synthetic.nightmare: for his kernel, and for still teaching me things. what a good teacher/dev
-ckisgen: for helping me fix an important bug regarding SD card
-the other devs
-the xda peeps here
onto the ROM
Here are some screenshots! Give thanks to this user: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29135158&postcount=125
what works:
-camera!! yes, it works
-CM stuff, like weather on lockscreen, a power menu that can reboot, go into recovery, etc.
-thats all i know for now. the rest is the basic stuff, like wifi, bluetooth, etc.
what doesnt work:
-i am not too sure myself, so if anyone wants to keep looking for stuff, please do and inform us so i can put it under here
-heat issues because of the kernel. With pretty much anything that requires audio and having headphones inserted will cause the phone to heat up
Instructions:
1. wipe all /system, /cache/ dalvik-cache, and /data
2. flash ROM
3. flash gapps
4. flash LowMicFix.zip (so Google Now and other apps can recognize voice better. mic is too soft)
if updating:
1. just flash it without wiping system, data, etc.
2. flash gapps
3. flash LowMicFix.zip

tips:
if you want to record video, download videocam illusion. go into the settings, and change the audio frequency from 48kHz to 44.1kHz. there ya go, recording!
dont want a green line on your 5mp pics? check out Camera JB+ on the play store (or if you can find it elsewhere ). it works fine for me
full wiping from time to time may help in the lagginess of the ROM. this one is up to the user
a cache and dalvik cache wipe may be effective. also, fix permissions. that can be helpful as well
test this out guys!
Up to date kernel (thanks THEindian):

i flashed it, nothing went wrong. i am going to see if it worked. it probably will. go for it!
Status update #1: Dev-Host is being a PITA. so, google drive will be the new mirror for now
Status update #2: i uploaded the 7-19 version. camera works, since i replaced some files from the 7-20 version. backlights seem to be working as well, even with auto-brightness
Status update #3: apparently, the backlights keep going on and off at random times with auto brightness. strange...
Status update #4: looks like i never updated this in a while lol. ok, so cm things from cm9 are now starting to come together in cm10 . bluetooth is finally working...well it discovers devices now. 8-14-2012 is the latest build. go get it!
Status update #5: i've been slacking in these lol. anyways, a new build will be up. it will be a 9-14-2012 version (status made on 9/13/2012)
Status update #6: i will have to delay the update. sorry about that (status made on 9/13/2012)
Status update #7: finally an update (9-17-2012)! camera works out of the box (or out of flash...however you want to say it), which means you dont need to flash the camfix. isnt that great?? less things to flash! (status made on 9/17/2012)
Status update #8: 3.0 kernel is being worked on. as for now, a new update is being uploaded. also, check this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1881573 (made on 9/24/2012)
Status update #9: trying to get wifi working on the 3.0 kernel. no luck so far. will continue to try.
edit: it did not work. kernel 3.0 does not have working wifi yet. but we are so close. wifi is the only thing standing in the way (unless the heat and battery issue when headphones are inserted is still present. i didnt really test it) (status made on 10/5/2012)
Status update #10: i am back! just did an update to this port. hope you all enjoy. last port for this phone, unless i change my mind and do other ports in the future . (status made on 12/12/2012)
Status update #11: thanks to THEindian, a kernel that fixes the overheating problem. woohoo! and it's up to date (made on 12/22/2012)
Downloading now. Gonna play with it until I fall asleep

Well its supposed to connect fast on wifi, it uses the IP address to help pinpoint your location.
What makes a difference is if it locks on the network, cause wifi ain't everywhere ya know.

S4 Google Edition Flashable Rom

UPDATE
Android 4.2.2 v6
Working: All with amazing battery life
Not working: Google Wallet (force close)
Again, not my work, just helping the community!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341794
Same setup - should work on T-MO.
Just an update about the new 4.3 GPe: External SD Card is readable when you plug it into your PC. The camera however still does not read the SD card. All else is still functioning.Version 4.3 will break root! All versions of SU currently do not work with 4.3. Just keep that in mind.
You can flash this over your current 4.2.2 Google Edition. If you're coming from TW, do a complete wipe, then flash. Thanks
____________________________________________________________________
No - I did not grab the system dump myself
Yes - I have tested this for the TMO variant and it's fully functioning
I did create a Youtube Video on how to install the Google Edition S4. Check it out!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmYpkJ27WAM
Althought it's not a ROM built from scratch or a project of any kind, it is a rom all in itself straight from the S4 GE
(Updated Link) - Thanks to luckyduck69 for posting a new mirror. Previous Link crashed XD.
If you're interested in the GE (VERSION 4.2.2), download here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/5nz662i2y826kwd/google-edition-bg.zip
As always, make a backup, wipe, then flash.
Enjoy!:good:

Installed using TWRP 2.5.0.2.
Was notified Root was not installed, told TWRP to install it for me.
So far, seems fine! I miss the "long press back to kill app" feature, but I can live without it as I play with this ROM.
Thanks for the link! After flashing this ROM will all software/firmware on the phone be identical to that on the GPe handset? Or are there any other bits that aren't contained in the ROM?
I'm wondering that too. This is stable? Wipe system/data/cache and flash?
I did a wipe flashed and then had to reboot to get WiFi
going,other than that so far so good .feels smooth,but it could be a placebo effect not sure
No gapps needed .. Holy shiiioot I now have a s4 Google edition! Thnx for the find.. Now if we can only theme...

Not a problem. After flashing this direct port, I've noticed that my Model number changed to GT-I9505G, but my baseband remains the same (MDL), As it appears, everything is fully functioning from that of the GPe. To be clear, no errors, force closes, or mis-haps have occured.

I'm not sure wi-fi calling is known to work even on the real GPe, is it? I thought it might be specific to TMo/TW ROM somehow. I guess only GPe reviewers know at this point.
I was referring more to general wi-fi capability, I saw some guys saying that didn't work with the GPe system dump on TMo handset.

CyanogenMod 10.2 Nightlies Discussion Thread

As the title states, this thread was created for the sole purpose of discussion on CM 10.2 nightlies.
Discuss bugs, ask questions, discuss apps, describe your experience and anything else.
TWRP 2.6.x is confirmed to work for these nightlies.
Cwm 6.0.3.6 is confirmed thanks to polarbe4r
To those new or unaware :
So yesterday as of August 13th, CM has been releasing nightlies for Android 4.3.x for our D2tmo. Go to get.cm and click on D2tmo to download them.
Please don't forget to download the latest GAPPS for 4.3.0 from goo.im/gapps and keep in mind the latest GAPPS function only on the latest 4.3.0 current release.
My experience with it so far : I've had very bad run ins with CM on the d2tmo personally in the past. Audio bugs, bad battery, random bootloops occasionally. I would however like to report the nightlies seem stable, smooth and decent on battery. So far with the exception of Focal the New camera app, I have not noticed a problem, luckily the 4.3 AOSP camera is included in. I recommend sticking to stock kernel for the time being. I tried a couple of third party kernels and had some restarts and graphic bugs. So please, if you have tested the nightlies yet, please leave some feedback for the user and the developers.
Please use the following GAPPS for these 10.2 night lies :

i had an issue with focal already though, both times with HDR turned on. once when moving the focus circle around it froze, then after taking a pic, the image went to gallery sideways and i tried turning the phone or scrolling the images, it froze again
i do not have this issue with 10.2 on my new Nexus 7
Focal itself has been buggy for me on everything but yes, our phone included haha.

prepping my phone for the move to liquid smooth to cm10.2. I am doing a super wipe on it so i want to make sure everything is in order be back with my comments soonish.
I'll hopefully have enough time this weekend to fiddle with my phone and try whatever nightly is up at the time. One thing I'll say right now is that I'll setup everything like I have it right now. Might lose a few mods I recently got but no big deal, all reversible. I hope there's no problems restoring from 4.3 to a 4.2.2 CWM backup.

I had no issue last week restoring a 4.1.2 backup. You should be fine. I also have mine sent to external though.

Seems pretty stable for me, no issues so far, but only flashed this afternoon. I'll update the nightlies and report any issues.

You mean your backup is stored on an external SD card?
I had a screen of death while listening to play music and skipping a track with holding the volume up feature.
Dirty Upgraded from Nightly 8-13 to Nightly 8-14. Upgraded Gapps as well. FC'd for the first reboot on Phone (Dialer was not present from 8-13).
Used all day on Dirty Upgrade without issue after a few reboots. Play Store could not update any software and Helium could not take a backup.
Got home and Clean installed 8-14 and Gapps. Zero problems after install on typical applications. Rebooted for Google to Restore Apps from Backup. File Manager can not display /storage/emulated/0 or /storage/emulated/legacy after enabling root mode. Had to use /mnt/shell/emulated/0 and /mnt/shell/emulated/legacy (Yes I know they are the same location, but just for thoroughness I used both).
Using Terminal Emulator you are able to see that /storage/emulated/legacy exists, but /storage/emulated/0 does not.
Code:
su
cd /storage/emulated
ls -a

And I'll test Play Music on my home tonight, I have poweramp but just to confirm for you. Are they stored on sdcard or are you streaming?
Further bugs
Slider shortcut will not stick to just say slider only no shortcuts. It always reverts back. Haven't found a fix yet.

I was streaming for a couple hours while at work but it only happened once. After the reboot it didn't do it again, so maybe it was a fluke.

You know what, I'll flash it tonight, will test until weekend if anything goes bad for me, otherwise will stay on it.
Anyone having any issues with root access after first install. Can't seem to get mine to run.

SD Mounting works on Tim's, but network doesn't seem to work. It doesn't give you the normal options under mobile networks in settings, and going to the secret phone menu (*#*#4636#*#*) shows network mode as "Unknown," and when you try to change it there it just goes back to unknown. DHacker's build works with network though, just no SD card.
Dhacker29 has already tweeted saying that a build with working External SD will be out soon. Can't wait!

Much better. It's as smooth as 4.2, maybe 4.1 even. No idea about battery life... Haven't had enough time to test obviously. No notable difference though

Sounds good, might give it a shot even though I can't restore my apps apparently (on my SD card). What gapps did you use if any?

Use the gapps Dhacker provides.
If you want SD functionality, wait till the next update. You can follow Dhacker29 on Twitter.
new build up, fixes external sd http://rootzwiki.com/topic/107825-aosp-44-kitkat-for-droid-razr-m-xt907/
Flashed last night and everything works great. I'm actually liking the new launcher.
Thank you for the update. Looking forward to getting the other ROMs with 4.4

I found it a bit laggy. Did you do anything to combat that?

The first time I booted, yes. But usually after I set up my phone I go back and wipe dalvik/cahce one more time and sometime fix permissions. After that it has been very smooth, so far.
The only thing that I found that doesn't work is sending mms. Also no apn settings, so that might have something to do with it.
Everything works for me so far.

Any one know if this will work with CWM ?
If so with which version ? I cant get 6.0.4.4 to work on my phone.

(Link)Unofficial Cm11 for T-Mo Note2

Hi. Thought I'd share this link I found on G+ with you guys. It's an unofficial build of cm11(KitKat) for T Mobile Galaxy Note 2. I own the Att I317 but I'm going to give this a try later. I believe this should work on my device also.

Did you flash with clockwork mod recovery 6.0.4.3? Use Rom manager to flash Clockworkmod recovery. Twrp won't work until it's been updated for our devices.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk
Use newest version of normal non touch cwm. Also use full paranoid android gapps for KitKat to get everything working. You will not have cell service if you do not use cwm.
Can you get it back?

Could not get pa 4.4 gapps. Link please that works. Thanks

I had switched to TWRP because my current ROM didn't flash right in CWM.
Guess if I want to try this, I'll have to go back. I haven't used a CM based ROM in a while. Anyone here using it?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Xparent Green Tapatalk 2
Everything seems to work except Art. A few cm features built in. Seems stable and smooth.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk
is this a similar build to the one dw9906 posted? cause im running that and it almost perfect, however the camera FC sometimes, rotation is kinda sticky and flash isnt loading on my xscope browser.
everything else seems pretty solid so far.
EDIT: i guess it is the same build.
Camera hasn't fc on me yet. Rotation seems fine here. Haven't tried flash yet. Don't know if it's the same build. I tried looking for a Cm11 build before I posted this and didn't see one. I must of missed it.

I'm getting an invalid device type "t03g" on my SGH-T889 "a3lsght889. This is the correct device type from what I am reading, why am I getting an error?
Also saw a post that said something about the t03g being a clone? Now im worried about fraud on this device. Anyone have any info on this being a fraud or was that one post just misleading? Its labeled as a Samsung note 2 nd all software shows its a Samsung Note2 and all CWM and rotting images worked fine so far.
Do I need to do something special to get it to install? Any info is appreciated.
Edit: It seems the t03g was due to using that devices as a recovery my mistake from another thread. I used Rom manager to install the correct CWM and it was fine after that. Just FYI if people need it.
Thanks,
saridnour

Installed runs smoothly autorotate didn't function at first a reboot after enabling it fixed it. Haven't seen any other problems as of yet. Not many extra cm features that I can see but still awesome. Not liking the zoom feature for the browser but still OK.

Art (android run time) is supposed to help speed up android apps and processes. Faster boot, app launching, tasks, scrolling, loading, etc. In the future it may replace dalvik. Right now its in developmental stage.
