a few questions about SGS4 - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

Hi all, I'm new to SGS4,
I have T-Mobile NON rooted SGS4 (Stock)
I have a few questions...
1. Is there a way to disable the loop on the Home screen (when I flip to the last screen, it will not go to the first) ?
2. Is there a way to enable song skipping with Vol keys ?
3. Is there a way to enable Alarm Snooze with Vol keys ?
Thanks

Without rooting, doing all of those things would be difficult if not impossible.
After rooting:
1. I don't know if anyone's created a mod for disabling looping, but it should be possible
2. Easy (use Nottach XPosed)
3. I'm pretty sure you'd have to do some major editing of the apk

Thanks for the reply
I know CM can do all 3... (at least I can do them on HTC...)
So I guess I'm Rooting my SGS4 !

AOSP-based roms (like CM) don't use the Touchwiz Launcher and Alarm apps. AFAIK, CM uses the Trebuchet launcher and a modified stock Android clock. You could actually just rip those apps from the CM ROM and install them on your Touchwiz ROM and they should work fine. It just wouldn't work with the Touchwiz Launcher or Alarm.

[MOD][XPOSED] CRT off effect [NO LONGER SUPPORTED]

You have probably heard about a modification that makes your phone look like an old CRT TV when you turn it off. This is actually a builtin effect, but it is disabled by default.
There is a tutorial by tweezit that shows how easy it is to enable this effect - but it requires you to change framework-res.apk. There are different threads that offer those modified files, but to combine different modifications, there have to be many different files with all possible combinations.
To avoid this, I'm developing the Xposed framework, which allows such modifications without changing any APK (or JAR in this case). All you need to do is install the Xposed framework app (root required) and then the attached module for it - both with the normal APK installer as any other app.
Tested with Stock LPQ, but should work for most ICS ROMs (not sure about CM9 though).
This mod is no longer supported. Please use my Tweakbox instead.
Very good work. When we add this apk and the Xposed framework app, the effect is automaticaly enabled or we need to enable this by the app? Thanks.
There is a short installation guide with screenshots in the framework thread.
Yes, you need to click a button to actually install the framework (what you download is the installer) and click a checkbox to enable the module. But both should be easy and fast.
Sweet! I've been looking for the CRT effect for my stock rom. And you have made it surprinsingly easy to install it! Thank you!
I would love to see more of these modules. Thx for the sharing!
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9100 mit Tapatalk
This module is now integrated in my Tweakbox. I recommend using that module instead.
didn't work with cm9

I may be wrong, but i think this is for Samsung ROM..
I thought CM9 might already have this as an option? Well anyway, this mod is deprecated. Try using my Tweakbox, which includes this mod in a cleaner version. If that also doesn't work for you, follow these questions (and please also let me know if other Xposed mods work for you).
Shame we cannot do this without root :-(
Im scared to root my phone...

Hello everyone
Does this crt off effect works properly? Because until now there is an annoying flickering of the screen.
Is this problem solved ?
This mod works as good or bad as other CRT mods do. The difference is that you can combine it with other Xposed mods.
The whole thing is just a switch that is enabled, the effect itself is already existing in the ROM. I see the flickering as well. This is reported to be a bug in a native library, so I cannot fix it.
Please also note that this version of the mod is no longer supported as I have integrated it into my Tweakbox.
Just installed the mod, works fine on my device - so simply unchecking it in the Xpose app then restarting will revert it back?
(I actually got the flickering after the effect with another mod with a cwm install but now its not present)
EDIT: Spoke too soon - the flickering came back after a few locks and unlocks... no ideas why, but it's too much of a distraction for me so I had to uninstall it.

Yes, unchecking
a mod disables it after a restart. Same thing for uninstalling the mod of course, but then it will be automatically enabled if you install it again.
I personally can live with fhe flickering from time to time, but that's up to every user to decide for themselves.

Updating Busybox should fix that. I think this needs to go into the FAQs, several people reported it already.
There is a fix available for the flickering issue in original android development thread
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Yes: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1676378
And it's working great for me and many others.
As you are already using Xposed, you could try a beta version that I just uploaded. It contains a setting apply the patch on-the-fly (that is in the memory), so you do not even need to replace any more files.
I had already modified the framework res file with the uotkitchen.
It was only the scrollbar which i made red but now its gone.is there any chance to have my uot mod enabled plus the crt effekt???
Thanks for your app anyway much easier to install the effect then over wm.

I have the same problem with no keyboard after installation
Is not possible use this ROM without keyboard
Please Fix this bug
problem
ok well the rom looks nice but why when i instaled this rom the keyboard application stops and i cant write anything
Would you please upload this Rom in Rapidgator or other servers too?
By the way, adding some more screen shots will be appriciated.
Hi developer,
sorry i want to ask again.
I love your ROM so much :fingers-crossed:. but there is something that made me flash my phone into my stock rom. the annoyance. :crying:
you didn't fix this problem.
- custom wallpaper can not fit with screen (scrollable) it can't be Lockmode
i know this isn't a big problem. I can fix it by using launcher app. but it sucks my ram so much. and if i use it, the icons become low quality (if i use my stock rom. although i use launcher app, the icons is still in HD)
please fix it. I think it's just the one step to make your rom looks perfect.
don't make your fans disappointed
wow... very smooth ROM (with clean install) ...
thanks sir..
great job

[Request] Searching for Dev with some Free time!

Hello everybody. Firstly i would like to appologize if i made this thread in wrong forum place. So i tried absolutely all ROMs for maguro and i personally think that aosp-based kitkat roms are better than cm11-based kitkat roms. But somehow i really love stock-look of kitkat ROM. I really want to use KitKat (4.4.2, not 4.4.3!) on my phone but without some features i cannot use any of current ROMs as daily ones. So i would like to ask some dev who got some free time to add some features to THIS ROM (the original thread is THIS ONE - v2 of this ROM (4.4.2 AOSP) ). Here is what features i would like to see and use in this 4.4.2 AOSP rom:
1. Long press back button to kill app (500 ms duration time of holding back button);
2. Vibration feedback on pressing/holding QuickTiles
3. 2G/3G QuickTile
4. One click Data/WiFi/Bluetooth Tile to turn ON/OFF and holding to open settings of this tile
5. Navigation ring shortcuts (afaik there are 3 shortcuts)
6. Double-tap to sleep
Only six things. No 3rd party launchers or any other add-ons. So i hope somebody will check this thread and give me an answer. Thank you in advance and have a nice day
I really doubt anyone will make a special ROM for you. Sorry.
So you have 2 possibilities:
1. Learn how to build ROM, and add what you want to it.
2. Install Shiny ROM, xposed framework and Gravitybox and have AOSP based ROM with customization (a lot of it, but all you need are included)

[Q] Calling the Theming experts - Help us, SOS!

This is a cry for help, from me and the other NOOBs out here, new to the theming world with no idea where to begin.
I started out with a problem. I hate the UI on my Note Edge Lollipop, as compared to the stock Lollipop ASOP UI. I started about trying to change the entire UI (icons, menus, fonts, notification drawer, app drawer etc) to stock AOSP Lollipop UI. I am not rooted.
I AM LOST. No idea which guide to follow. Don't want to change my launcher. I would prefer not to root, would prefer not to void my warranty, would just prefer to screw around as less as possible while getting as close to stock Lollipop as possible.
And I know there are others around me. So here I am, on behalf of the noobs, requesting all experts to provide a starting point from where to begin changing the UI - completely, with as little messing around as possible. Not just to AOSP but to any other UI that someone else might prefer. Please explain this to us like we are 3 year olds.
1) Options for those who are Not Rooted.
2) Options for those who are Rooted.
Ps. This will not work if only the experts contribute. Everyone here who has something to contribute please do!
Ps. Mods I looked and searched for days. I know there are guides out there but I wanted something Note Edge and Lollipop specific.
As my contribution. I love the work that this Dev has done for the Note 4. But don't know if this will work on our devices. Also Im not rooted yet.

The new TouchWiz on the S6 has themes. Pray that they port it over to us and any other features it has like they used to do before with those Experience updates during the S3 and Note 2 periods...
Mate, there isn't actually a lot you can do for theming without rooting your device. Most themes replace icons in the system files which is impossible to access without root or without being officially supported by Samsung...
The only real way to theme your un-rooted Note Edge is to change the launcher and theme that...
My wishes seem to have been answered within a week. The new Samsung themes app is all we need. Let's hope we get it fast.

Thank you my friend, your work is very good, congratulations. Just two doubts now, when I open the camera and go to the front the device restarts, I am not able to use the front camera. And when I use SmartView, the device also reboots. The device restarts when using SmartView and Front Camera. Would you know what that might be?
I'm using the Tutibreaker ROM Note Fan Edition (NoteP).
