Looks like you have the same phone I have (T-Mobile S4 SGH-M919), I want to install a clean and unbranded version of the ROM, I dont know whats happening but my phone is always low of memory, so I have to install Cleaner Master (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cleanmaster.mguard) to clean the memory every time I unlock the screen, but this is a S4 not a old Samsung phone and I dont think I have to use apps like that to keep the phone running smothly.. Before the S4 I had a Note2 and S3 and I never got problems like this and the S3 just have a 1 RAM, Any ideas?
Thanks

I'm new on this kind of stuff and dont know which is the correct kernel and modem.
I have my phone rooted and with ClockMod Recover installed correctly.
I was thinking just go to sammobile to found the i9505 ROM and then install with Odin or ClockMod. How I can identify which is the right ROM to download?
thanks a lot!

Yes but you have to immediately flash a kernel that is compatible with T-Mobile. There are threads you can search for which list the compatible kernels.

What? Odin? you do not use that to flash custom roms. Are you rooted with a recovery installed yet?
Actually, all of the guys above are right, flash the rom, then YOUR CARRIERS kernel. But I am concerned with your odin thing.

You might want to check into /data/media/clockworkmod. That would account for you having almost no space on your internal storage...

Android 4.3 on Korean Note 2?

Hi guys!
First of all I am sorry for posting in this forum but I believe Korean Note 2 is similar in many aspect to N7105 and also there are devs who can read and maybe come up with something.
I have a question for you. Has anyone tried an Android 4.3 custom ROM on e250s (Korean Note 2) ? I am currently on 4.1.2, a combination of Milan 3.0 and Milan 4.0 (I think this ROMs are also for N7105 because in About device section my phone appears to be a N7105 after flashing), with some stock kernel and cwm. I have tried a few 4.3 ROMs for N7105 (CM 10.2, Beanstalk, Illusion) but all get stuck at the boot logo (Samsung Galaxy Note 2). I even tried different kernels, compatible with 4.3 (SJKernel and NeKo) but again, with no luck.
Do you have a solution, link, idea?
Thanks in advance guys!
Any links?

Yes. My actual ROM is 4.1.2. I have tried Jedi X19 (4.1.2) and also BeanStalk, Illusion, CM 10.2 (4.3), with the same result. Stuck at boot screen logo.

Vibration issue
Hi guys!
Is anyone else having issues with vibrations when using a N7105 ROM (with Android 4.2.2 or 4.3)? I mean the phone does not vibrate at all.
Do you know a fix or something?
Thanks!

Hi. This is the link to the boot converter.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36885456
All you have to do is flash this zip file from cwm after you first flash the ROM.
I have tried Illusion and PAC-MAN ROMs (N7105, Android 4.3) and also MIUI v5 for N7105 (Android 4.2.2) and all work fine.
There may be some ROMs (PAC-MAN) that give you "error 7" when flashing. You have to change the first line from META-INF/com/google/android/update script.
How I do that. I prefer to change the ROMs extension from zip to apk, then unzip it using APK Tool and go to the file, change extention to .txt and delete the first line (the one that starts with assert), thus the first line becoming the one with "show progress" or "mount". After that I zip it again with APK Tool and sign the ROM with ApkSign. I do not know why, I cannot sign it with APK Tool. After that, the flashing process should go fine. You have to install the right GApps for the ROM you are being flashing and then the boot converter from the link.
The only issue I have found was the absence of vibrations, but I managed to get it back by flashing Thor Kernel for Note 2, like cbeta1111 and eggymustdie told me. So huge thanks to them.
Good luck! Hope you will manage to install the desired ROM. In my opinion, PAC-MAN ROM is the best so far, with many, many options from CM, AOKP and Paranoid Android ROMs.

Thanks for detail response
I am using TWRP touch custom recovery. would this process work for TWRP?
I did not get second part about changing first line from META-INF/com/google/android/update script. where is that? You mean first line of custom 4.3/4.2 ROMs we are going to install?
and also do call recoding work in 4.3/4.2 PAC ROMS because i actually use this function and multi windows ?
This is dev forum, not Q&A. All questions should go in questions forum.

Hi. It should definitely work with TWRP recovery as it installs like a normal zip file ROM.
The update script file is located in the ROM. You have to unzip it and go to that location as I have said in the anterior post.
Call recording works but I did not figured yet how to play the file after it is saved. It saves the file as a .3gpp but I think the problem is with Android 4.3 codecs.
EDIT: It works if you try to play it from the built in file manager. Not with Root Explorer. Do not know why.
Multiwindows work great in PAC-MAN ROM:

I built this Rom to hopefully kick start a little development for the M919N.
Please use it as a base with which to create Roms, Themes and Mods from our firmware.
Its also great for M919N users who want a fully working rooted and deodexed stock Rom
with only minor modifications that you can flash in recovery.

Thanks for the screenshot, that helps a lot.
Please go to "settings/more/about device" and check the build number and the baseband version. They should be the same version.
If they are not the same, that is what is causing the "prevention notification" you are getting. Most likely the result of going from a Tmobile Rom to this MetroPCS Rom. They each have different basebands. There are two possible fixes I've read about.
The first is the easiest, just flash the Tmobile rom you were using before. That should take care of the wifi and "prevention notification" and different baseband issues. This means you cant use this rom though.
The second is more time consuming but if you really want to get this metroPCS Rom running this is what you need to do:
Go to this thread Unofficial M919NUVUAMF2 Working!!!! and follow the directions to return the phone back to MetroPCS 100% stock via Odin.
Then install the recovery of your choice, OUDHS, TWRP, CWM, whatever you prefer.
Then flash this Rom again.
Let me know how it works out.

Thanks for your help and you are absolutely correct! Unfortunately there's no radio zip to flash for our phone and I have yet to make one. I'm no dev, I just follow directions reasonably well. I have yet to find a guide to make a flash-able radio zip and honestly, I'm working on something else at the moment, so I haven't really looked. For now, the fix I gave is the only fix for this issue. In the future that will probably change. Thanks again for your assistance

Hi Robcop,
Tmobile TWRP is what I use too, though there are versions that dont work properly for our phone.
Version 2.5.0.2 is definitely working for our phone.
Why dont you stop by here:
http://androidforums.com/metropcs-galaxy-s4-all-things-root/
Its a place for the MetroPCS S4
Check out the posts, including a thread that walks you through installing a recovery and easy rooting.
I look forward to seeing you there. Say hello when you do.
strange things are happening
I never had this problem before, I have downloaded the zip 4 times thinking I did something wrong with the process as simple as it is .lol
Used the stock my files app to copy the zip to the 64gb external sd card and even this last time I created a couple folders and put it in there although when I boot to recovery and factory reset then chose zip fromexternal sd card its not there and whats weird even more is I see an older file that I have deleted several times back again, its the root_zip I used with odin to originally root the device.

Why not try flashing the Debloat tool after doing a backup of your current setup. That way if you don't like the result you can restore it. Or, a novel idea, post this question in the thread you found the list in...

No matter how the question is worded, these still careen to best-rom threads.
The best rom for your particular description is the one you ultimately find and use. Search the development forums, read the OP of each, and I am certain you will find the one that fits your needs. Thread closed.

[Q] Advise on Rom choice

Hey People,
Looking for advise on a Rom for the Note II - I am a new Note II owner,
I have SLIMFAST 4.4 v-4 on it now...
I have not looked around enough to know what ROM is the most complete - I want KitKat.. but I want most complete..
I really would like to put one rom on, and not touch for the next long while if possible.
Suggestions? I want USABLE 1st .. not cutting edge.

OK, couple of things
1. I see so much talk about the bootloader for this phone.. is there an FAQ or can someone help me know what bootloader I have? what I want? and what my dangers are??
2. I need a phone I can listen to text msgs from people through bluetooth and then send a text using bluetooth voice .. So I need a rom and I think s-talk? to do this??
3. Is there an IRC channel for XDA? or somewhere I can chat with people about this realtime??
Thanks

The one I have 4.4 slimfast is a tw rom correct?
I messed it up some.. I think I will reflash.. but there is so much talk about bootloaders and deoxed, etc.etc.. this much more complicated than my old LG and Cyanogen.

It's not any more complicated. Don't worry about odex and stuff. Just stay in the development threads here and flash what you like. Not trying to be mean here but these types of threads are not necessary. Just make a nandroid and flash away and see what best fits your needs. Each rom is subject to opinion. I use slimfast and have had no issues with it.

I keep asking questions, and you give me other replies rather than answers... If might be straightforward and easy for you. and maybe screwing around with a $350 phone is no issue for you.. but me.. not so much.
"In theory you should be fine if you do dirty flash from another 4.3 rom such as DN3 v1.0 or SN10
We recommend TWRP 2.6.3.1 to flash this rom.
You need 4.3 boot loader.
Have both TWRP and latest CWM on your external SD Card along with Ditto Note 3.1.1
Flash TWRP 2.6.3.1, go into Wipe and slide to do the Factory Reset."
This is not straight forward to me.. since I have no idea if I have a 4.3 bootloader - says I HAVE TO HAVE ONE.
TWRP is at 2.7 now .. is there a reason he says to use 2.6.3.1??? on a rom that was updated 3 days ago??
These are the things that bother me.. I am not interested in bricking my phone.
If you dont want to help.. fine, But explanations for the terms used above are not coming up in searches, unless I want to read a ton of threads.. so I thought someone might answer for me.

If that's what the developer says to use then use it. I would say he knows why to use 2.6.3.1 but that's not really important. Samsung phones are very hard to brick if you follow the directions. I'm no expert dude, all I do is follow the directions in the OP. If you do that you will be fine. What were you running prior to slim fast? If you're not sure you have the bootloader you can just flash it again.

Ok.... Thank you so much!!! I will give it another try after this one didnt work... I had given up but I will try and flash again.... I will let you know the turnout
Thanks for the ROM. I'll be testing and report back on how it works for me.
One issue I immediately see if that wifi seems to not be working for me. Every time I try and turn it on, it is either greyed out and I can't toggle it, or if I am able to toggle it, it just doesn't do anything. I rebooted, still same issue. I think I flashed it properly (I wiped data, cache, dalvik, system), but I may try flashing again.
Has anyone else had this problem and is there a fix for this?
EDIT: Did a second full wipe and flash and still no wifi. Everything else seems to work connection wise, airplane mode, bluetooth, mobile data, just not wifi.
Already fix that problem
A new update should be here soon it is being uploading to mega wifi is fix

DPI change?
Hey, the ROM is still going smooth. No real issues so far (except my battery life isn't as good as before, but it's not terrible or anything).
I have been trying to change the DPI on this ROM, but I have not been able to make it stick. I have tried using the build prop editor app as well as directly editing the build prop via ES File Explorer. Neither has worked. Has anyone been able to change their DPI or is there something specific that I need to do to get it working?
